TheophilusOkere: CHAPTER 5: How British Destroyed Igbo Trade 1900-1960
Ndi Igbo,
We don prove British came LAST. Now: WHAT did they do when they came?
NOT CIVILIZE. DESTROY.
STEP BY STEP:
1. 1901-1902: ARO EXPEDITION British bring Maxim gun. Bomb Aro Chukwu. Why? Aro control long-distance trade road. 400 years old. British: "We stop slavery." Lie. Truth: They stop Aro so only British company fit trade. Result: Aro oracle destroy. Trade road cut.
2. 1911: NRI KINGDOM FALL British enter Agukwu-Nri. Remove Eze Nri. Why? Eze Nri bless trade. Kings from Onitsha, Aboh get blessing from Nri. British: "We stop juju." Lie. Truth: They stop spiritual trade network. Replace with church + tax.
3. 1900-1960: PALM OIL ROBBERY Before British: We sell palm oil to Portuguese, Arabs, Indians. We set price. After British: Only UAC company fit buy. They set price. Cheap. We plant. They carry. They sell to Europe 10x price. British: "We teach you commerce." Lie. Truth: They turn us from traders to laborers.
4. 1911-1960: ARTIFACT THEFT Igbo-Ukwu bronze 1938 — British take. Nri crown, Onitsha throne, Aboh ivory — British take. Till today: British Museum London get 1,000+ Igbo artifacts. British: "We preserve history." Lie. Truth: They hide proof we trade since 900 AD.
SO WHAT BRITISH REALLY BRING? Tax. Church. School to forget our history. Not trade. Trade dey before them.
Ask your elder: Before 1900, who buy your palm oil? After 1900, only one company buy? Why?
If your town market burn by British, comment town name. If British take your grandfather crown, comment.
We no hate British people. We hate British LIE.

BreakingNews21: The report states the trip from Taiwan to the Staights will take two weeks. A whole lot can happen in half a month. Also US Marines are land forces not Naval power. Secretary Hegseth seems clueless as a strategic leader.
Imagine you have an opened tank and it has been collecting rain water for several weeks and finally got filled. Then everyone started to fetch from that tank to bath, and drink…. But the only source of replenishing that water is rainfall.. You will deplete the water from that tank faster than rainfall would ever replace
Good news we have a reserve and thanks to rainfall again

GEJ is just a fantasy, one which won't even materialize and if it does he remains a variable in the scheme of things.

KnowledgePower7: It was revealed to me in a deep state of meditation this morning
That everything we know as good and bad all came from God.
That is why you can never defeat devil. God and devil are the same.
Earth is a movie The guy playing Boss is not evil He is only playing a character The main Actor is also playing a character.
Each character are given scripts to follow by the director GOD So each actor must play their role to the beat.
Hitler was only playing his role and he played it well. Jesus was only playing his role and he did it well too.
Your evil uncle is not evil He is only playing the role God designed him to play in this movie called Life.
At the end of the movie All actors come out hold hands and bow. Their is no eternal punishment for their roles in the film.
Imagine a director give you a script to act like a bad person. You act like that and do very well. Will the director send you to hell for acting as a bad person. Noo
God gave each and everyone of us script's to act. Once your role in this movie calked Life ends God the director will call you back to the studio. Your job is done.
No eternal punishment Hell does not exist
At the end Every actor in this film called Life Will come together as ONE.
you might be right but I believe that there is a reward for every role we play in this wonderful movie. Good role attracts good reward bad role attracts bad reward because we have an inbuilt consciousness.
franchasng: Nobody can be completely invisible to current US global satellite map which Jewish scientists helped them to develop.
You can only hide inside a deep underground bunker to reduce the emission and signal your body emits.
Once your body's wave signal is mapped, the satellite tracks you wherever you go with or without any gadget, it tracks you based on the human body waves.
Every human heart emits electromagnetic waves which can now be tracked. Let me stop here.
It hurts that we dont have our own country to begin massive tech and scientific researches to compete with others, sighs
Its worth the wait because by then he would be more experienced and also built a strong network of associations in all regions. South East votes alone can't make him a president
