Lanrelagboi: The only problem I have is the lack of maintenance. Give Nigeria structures a few years and you go back and you see how derelict the structures have become. That's my problem with Nigeria. We build but do not maintain. |

Lanrelagboi: That's awesome! There should be 5G or Satellite high-speed internet for e-learning, video conferencing with the Diaspora, and eatery there to make it sustainable like other major successful models around the world. The history and heroic exploits of many Yoruba Diasporans in Brazil, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Venezuela, Sierra Leone, Trinidad and Tobago, Haiti, Guyana, Jamaica, USA, etc, have to be told to the world. "From slave ships to victory." Yorubas in the Diaspora who lived in the 1800s such as the enslaved Egba prince, Scipio Vaughan of South Carolina and the very moving story and inspiring successes of his direct descendants in the American and Nigerian family branches who still meet till today since 1805 when their Yoruba patriach (Scipio Vaughan) was first brought to the Southern Carolina area on a slave ship via Badagry, Nigeria. He passed on in 1840. Two of his only sons later migrated from South Carolina, U.S.A in 1852 to Liberia, and finally arrived in Yorubaland, Nigeria in 1854. The Vaughan family of Abeokuta and Lagos evolved from these 2 men born to a freed Yoruba father and a mother of Native-American descent. 2. Orishatukeh Faduma, a reknowned educator born in British Guyana in 1857 to Egba-Yoruba parents from Nigeria (who were freed from a slave ship by the British Navy Squadron), was an 1895 Yale Divinity School Uni graduate who had earlier earned a University degree in England before migrating to the U.S. in 1890 from Sierra Leone for further studies. Professor Orishatukeh became an American citizen (Nigerian-American of Yoruba ancestry) in the late 1890s and died in 1946 at North Point in North Carolina, USA, where he lived with Henrietta his African-American wife who he was married to for nearly 50 years. Many of America's top black military and Civil Rights Movement advocates were taught by him! 3. Pa. Orlando Martins was a Yoruba movie actor who starred alongside the former U.S. President Ronald Reagan in the 1950s. He was the first Nigerian to ever act in a Hollywood film and he passed on in 1985 and was buried on Lagos Island. I remember that President Reagan sent his condolences. I'll be willing to share more rare historic pictures from the 1800s and deep insights gathered by me over many years of personal studies and genealogy or ancestry DNA research with the J. Randle Centre in Lagos to make it a great international hub of Yoruba and African history. These folks must never be forgotten in history! Eko o ni baje. Cc: Sukkot. 1 Like 2 Shares

sukkot:@Sukkot, how's it going? Thanks for adding more meat to my post. I got the inner nudge to quote you because you are well-travelled and would be receptive to these kinds of historical info. Much respect! Wow! I would love to know the African-American guy on YouTube that you talked about. Kindly send me his name so that I can search for his videos on YouTube because I'm a world history and genealogy buff. A couple of African-Americans and Caribbean folks have even used the DNA testing services of Dr. Rick Kittles' AfricanAncestry(.com) to trace their direct paternal and maternal lineages to Yorubaland. 1. Mr. Sam Ford, a top U.S. TV news personality who first visited Nigeria in the 2000s to do a series of documentaries on his Yoruba lineage (done via DNA testing) based on a genetic marker that is found in Yoruba men. He visited Lagos, Badagry, Ibadan, and Ile-Ife. The visit was shown on the U.S. TV station where he worked. 2. The well-known Judge Glenda Hatchett also had her maternal line traced to Yorubaland. 3. Quad Webb of the TV talk show "Sister Circle Live" also had her maternal lineage revealed live on the talk show to Yorubaland. Yeah, DAKOVA was in the Yaba area from back in the 1980s (when the now dollar Billionaire oil magnate, Mrs. Folorunso Alakija also established her hugely popular "Supreme Stitches in Ikeja) to the 2000s. All the Vaughans in Yorubaland are connected originally to Egbaland. Burrel Vaughan who came from the U.S. to Nigeria in 1854 with his older brother, had to leave Abeokuta for Ebute-Meta in Lagos because of the expulsion of all Abeokuta Christians by the Egba chiefs who were angry and felt the British (who had not yet colonised the rest of Yorubaland), were undermining their military attempts to gain access to lucrative trade routes to the sea via Ijebu territory. Ebute-Meta was settled in very large numbers by the Egba-Yoruba Christians so it became an Egba enclave in the 1800s till now. Burrell Vaughan and his older brother who came from the U.S. (at the prompting of their dying Egba father) were successfully integrated into the Lagos elite life and became wealthy folks in the 1800s while still maintaining contact with the rest of the family consisting of their 7 biological sisters, and mother in South Carolina.
