The headmaster of Eton College has told the BBC he is "appalled" by the racism experienced by the first black person to complete his studies at the prestigious British public school.


Go and argue with the Headmaster of Eton College. He is the person in the best position to tell us who was "The first".

Because the headmaster tells you something, means it is the fact. Slave mentality.

Throwback:
Not so fast clansman.

The 2 statements of yours in bold above are lies. Don't embellish and confuse the facts of 1st black to graduate/complete at Eton as carefully reported in the news with your own revision of 1st black in/at Eton.

Also, Ojukwu came very late to the African party at Oxford. His attendance there is not historic in any way when many other Africans/Nigerians had clinched the glory when even Ojukwu's father was yet to be born.

The first Black student at Eton college was Tokunbo Akintola in April 1964, son of SLA Akintola the then Premier of Western Nigeria.

(28 Apr 1964) 13-year-old Tokunbo Akintola will be the first Black African boy to attend Eton College. Tokunbo is the son of the Prime Minister of Western Nigeria.


The First Black student at Oxford University was a Creole from Sierra Leone, Christian Cole in 1873.

The first Nigerian to attend Oxford was the first Black woman to attend the School and graduate in 1935, Kofoworola Ademola (nee Moore), the daughter of Eric Olawolu Moore and later wife of Sir Adetokunbo Ademola, the first Nigerian Chief Justice of the Supreme court.

So how does an Ojukwu that graduated from Oxford in 1955, become the first Black/African at Oxford?

When Kofoworola Ademola graduated from Oxford in 1935, the barely 2yr old Ojukwu was still learning how to walk.


This must be IPOB Bureau of Statistics as usual.

Busted. Thanks for the fact. Was just laughing at their ignorance.

koning:
First black/African man at Oxford = Emeka Ojukwu

First balck man in Eton College = Dilibe Onyeama.


Conclusion = IGBO AMAKA. Putting Nigeria and africa on the map since 1845.





Mod, do the needed. The world need to know.

They did not say first black man to attend, they said complete. That how tribalism no dey allow una read.

Mumu op.

Ekwutox:
Write more of these and attach this name at the end "Prof Nnamdi Okonkwo" no be only Dr Chinedu Akabuike.

Continue with your useless propaganda, you yorubas will write a long epistle filled with hate and attach an Igbo name at the end of it but will not hesitate to parade and dance around in every thread concerning Ipob but you want Igbos to leave tinubu.

Make una dey practice wetin una dey preach. Tueh!!

[/s]Trash.


Since you have been shouting Tinubu, how has that improve your life?

anungangampu:
I was being sarcastic. You know this lies I have heard from yoroubas that igbos are involved in crime and drugs because their elders and leaders does not speak against it.

When you asked them, their defence is always.. "we expose evil wherever we see it. We don't hide bad influence"

The funny thing is their grand chess master was indicted for crimes pertaining to drugs and their youth leader is a thug. Thier Top senate leader is not clean too. But they would be the first to call other tribes evil for crime that is committed in Thier back yard everyday.

ThankGod for Internet.


Then back to your question... Fela lifestyle was part of his music.. Music is all about creativity. Then yoroubas only did not promote Fela.. I think all lovers of Fuji music.

But the other person is just a mistake created by this present goverment.

This guy is in pain. Who will pacify him?

Iceyjayz:
Stay away from broke girls, run as fast as you can if possible, if you are earning good income monthly stick to high class ladies that are earning good income too, so that you can both complement each other.

I've learnt the hard way and I can never repeat such stupid mistake again.

I support the motion.

Relationship is meant to be about Love. Love is all about giving and sacrifice.

In relationship, both parties should do the giving and sacrifice.

Many ladies who carry the badge " no sex before marriage " unfortunately do not have anything to offer in the relationship but wants the guy to be doing the spending.

Its really rare to meet a Nigerian girl who takes his boyfriend for shopping and fun and do the spending. Almost all of them are wired to think it's a man's responsibility to take care of them.

In essence, if you are a born again and a broke girl, dont bother going into relationship if you wont give him sexual pleasure.


Stay in your father's house till you are ready for marriage. Then get married.

My brother, they practise parasitic relationship

Peace081:
U've said it all, to me I will never settle down with a broke ass guy all in the name of Love

Only a dumb rich guy will settle with a girl like you that have nothing to offer.

Grayoso:
Igbos are really irritating with their love of fraidulent revisionism and living in the past.

Edos themselves lay no claim to ownership of Lagos yet it is our own Okoro brothers making claims on their behalf.

They do this worldwide also. Always to be found dragging turf with Indigenes be it in Ghana, South Africa or Kenya. Annoying troublemakers

No mind them flat-ties. Today, na edo land, tomorrow, na no man's land. Very foolish people.

blakkydikky:
Go and claim it,then.

Abi

osazsky:
the guy said the truth.go back to ur history books kid .u will understand but we are kind loving people so we wouldn't do that

Come and tell me how you own a land you have no boundaries with.

Come and tell me how you fly over ondo and ogun to jump into lagos.

You are peace loving people. No, don't be peace loving, we want you to come and claim it.


Even your Oba no fit talk trash.

Mmuoojukwu:
This Lagos Yorubas are dragging belongs to Edo people. If the Edos can wake up, they can take their land.

Leave nairaland and come and tell us here in Lagos.

Edo people don't need to wake up.You and your father can stand for them.

Sebi you are brave.

Mmuoojukwu:
I stopped replying Yorubas online after realising many of them are jobless. With empty account and without meaningful skills, their only source of joy is fuelling tribal hates and envy online. I have them as neighbors and the way they live is terrible. You can't see any post from Yoruba that doesn't have childish tribal undertone. I don't know why people who know the reality on ground and hunger dealing with them will be posing as important people outside. Fake life no good abeg.

You wey dey jobful, why commenting at 9 am. You are just shameless.

Hunger dealing with them, yet you people are committing suicide in imo state.

Na you dey give them food.

Top ten under 40 billionaires, they beat your tribe to it.

Nigeria billionaires, two of them are in top 4, while none of yours present.

We all see the billions in your account Mr online billionaire.

The truth we all know op

How Awolowo's Action Destroyed The Fibre Of Peace Between The Igbos And The Yorubas.

In 1963, Obafemi Awolowo was jailed by Balewa due to treason at Uyo,Eastern Region.

He also lost his son to car crash.

During his imprisonment, M.I Okpara hired a house & urged the Igbo owner of a House near the prison to vacate from the house for Awolowo to live in that house.



The man vacated and Awolowo lived in that house. So, every night he would sleep in that house but at daybreak he would go to prison and stay and all the cooks and stewards he had were paid from Enugu by the Eastern Government.



His wife HID Awolowo who was mourning two losses, her incarcerated husband and dead Son, was placed on a ministerial salary from Enugu and all allowances that accrued to ministers in those days were paid to her.

In 1966, he was released by Ojukwu and moved to Ikenne.

In an interview, Ojukwu reiterated.

"I released Awolowo from jail. Even that, some people are beginning to contest as well.

Awolowo was in jail in Calabar. Gowon knows and the whole of the federal establishment knows that at no point was Gowon in charge of the East.

The East took orders from me. Now, how could Gowon have released Awolowo who was in Calabar? Because of the fact that I released him, it created quite a lot of rapport between Awolowo and myself and I know that before he went back to Ikenne.

I set up a hotline between Ikenne and my bedroom in Enugu. He tried like an elder statesman to find a solution. Awolowo is a funny one. Don’t forget that the political purpose of the coup, the Ifeajuna coup that began all this, was to hand power over to Awolowo.

We young men respected him a great deal. I thought he was a hero and certainly I received him when I was governor. We talked and he was very vehement when he saw our complaints and he said that if the Igbos were forced out by Nigeria that he would take the Yorubas out also.

Later Gowon wooed Awolowo through his Wife to join the government, in his words in an interview.



"Yes, we really pleaded with mama; she was the one who encouraged papa to accept that invitation and so, for that, we ever remain grateful to her for what she did."

Mr English speaker, is English their language, I ask? It’s just like saying you don’t speak French or Italian, for example. Why should they speak English, do English people speak Yoruba or Igbo?

Ask him why they always need interpreter in igboland when someone speaks English to them.

catfrog10:
Most Yorubas cannot speak good English. I was shocked when I visited SW; even guys 20-40 can't speak English.

See this one. So that diluted English you speak in your region is what you call good English?.

Spit, Nigeria education continues to wake. Jamb 160 cut off. I wrote my first jamb when I was in ss2 and was crying when I saw 187 SD my score. That means I won't be able to write post jamb. That was when education standard still good in Nigeria. I thought it will be increasing, but I am dissapointed. Spot
