The Sokoto Caliphate Slave Trade in the Nineteenth Century

Go read about it!

The Islamic caliphate from Mecca captured and sold almost all the black men along the coast of the Mediterranean sea in Northern Africa. That is why Northern African look different. Those are not true Africa. They know it. They will tell you that they are Arabs.

Then, the hurdle of traveling deep west of Africa was enormous since it is landlocked. What did they do?

They established the caliphates in the North to capture the black men for sale. Ethiopia did the same to Kenyans and Ugandans. Most notably, the Caliphate of Sokoto.

That is why the middle belt today is isolated. They were massively depopulated. They have confused identity too. They are not inclined either to the north or to the east. They have no trust of the north because of what happened. They were ripped off their pride and majority of their sons were captured and sold to the Islamic caliphate. They also formed a wall for the igbos who were quick to understand what was happening and built a strong resistance thanks to the Middle belt who fought their last blood.

They opened the door for the British to settle in Nigeria and began their colonialization.

Whatever we suffer in this country today began in the North. They came in silently to the west as brothers and also began converting Yorubas to Islam. Muslim clerics and traders brought in trade deals. The commodity was human beings. They slowly gained momentum until the Fulani jihad of 1804, organized by Usman Dan Fodio.

This is what Islam is known for. Deceitfully creep into your space then when the population rises, they perform Jihad. Thankfully, the Yoruba traditionalists were strong and resisted to a certain extent. Sadly, the damage had already been done.

Have you ever wondered why the British only brought Christianity to certain parts of Nigeria and in Asia?

Every client of slavery was spared Christianity.

The Muslims sold almost the population of Nigeria today into slavery. Just imagine that. 140 million people

British loves them coz they are easy to manipulate.
If u wanna win a set of people over for something. U will always go for the weak link and make sweet dandy promises coz weak links dont use their brains.

Thats why in the animal world, they never allow the weak to lead.

In humans, its a lil bit complicated.

They have not been able to achieve anything with all the income from enslaving the black man

Because you can cow them easily.
They are cash cows by nature,they follow sheepishly to their slaughter without questioning, as required by brutish royal order
