Which agreement are you talking about?

Sorry to disappoint you, but Jaja was an Igbo man, he never stopped being Igbo for a single day. It's a bitter pill you have to swallow.
No argument about ur assertion! Jaja ibo by an established fact but he stopped being ibo and took Ibani ijaw tradition,initiation and way of life till his death! Even at his death,he bears the name jaja and remains buried in ijawlland! Get it clear! He is ijaw and he goes nowhere

According to the last Supreme Court judgement,the whole of Opobo is the personal estate of Jaja and his descendants.So,if you agree Jaja was Igbo,it stands to reason his estate is Igbo too.
However,we'll leave that decision to Dandeson Jaja to make,and thus far,he has continually identified with his Amaigbo ancestry while not taking anything away from his Ibani heritage.
As u clearly stated! Agreements were long established before he was crowned King! It is important to note that men of Ibani don't joke with agreements! As ruled by any court on earth,King Jaja is Ibani Ijaw and remains so for ever! Note likewise that English is a Germanic Tribe hence English is no German! German is German while English is English! Jews originated from Or ,a tribe in present day Iraq but Jews are Jews from the foundation of the 12 tribes or house of Isreal and the Or/babyloneans/Iraqis are Or/babyloneans/and iraqis.
Note,King Dandison's communication with the amigbo's is just associative and that is all!as it is, king Jaja is Ijaw in blood,indeed and in truth.
Note also, All British territory is own by Her imperial Majesty .as far as Australia etc

the funny thing is that the speak ibo language in opobo
Opobo is Ijaw. Igani people! Not Igbo. They traded in Igbo language in the hinterland because the were able to read n write! Only Jaja was ibo! It was the ijaw Ibani war canoe house of bonny that brought and absorb jaja! The war canoe house that absorb Jaja made him an Ijaw man! The lineage of king David son of Jeese was not jewish! Rehaab was absorb by the Jews! Jesus's davidic parentage was asborb and that made Him jewish and that was what happened in the kingdom.they understand the dynamics of the time long before the USA did, they had a somewhat democratic process entangled with dynasty and the ruling war canoe houses! They were liberal,accommodating, prosperous,they created an environment where anybody can achieve his God given potential regardless, in as much as institutional processes were obeyed and followed!

Mate the only thing I can get from your post is that he was a rich businessman who could afford to send his children abroad to study.



And that the same few privileged people in Jaja's time are the same privileged ones now.

Did I miss anything?
U can't possibly say that! Comparing king jaja with Dangote,adenuga n co is an insult! Which rich man in nigeria sends emissaries, diplomats and command an army? My assertion is pure class. Even the richest black man can't command an army not to talk of sending delegates as diplomats to represent a state!the British paid taxes and royalties to king jaja! The king was the Ruler and Controller of the hinterland! Every other ruler were subject to king Jaja's supreme rule! Dare him and die! Ask otumegege!

I'm done with this.
U can't say what u do not know! The ruling house of England what do u call them? The same principle of treaty king jaja was using! Have u read King Jaja's account while in exile? U can only be marvelled! Pull him down nigeria syndrome! Ever wonder why our children do not read about the colonial concept of of niger delta long b4 ur forefathers met the Europeans! Even lord luggard lived in king jaja's Opobo territory all through his sojourn in Nigeria . Opobo people were so enlighten even before the rest of Nigeria started going to school! They r more professionals reason they v the highest number of professors in River State! Very calculative and peace loving and prosperous and educated.u need to visit the kingdom of Opobo where the 1st port in nigeria is located to know.u l still see the prosperity in the culture, architectural buildings and delegations of power.king Jaja was the only king in west Africa who understood English,read and wrote english,spoke portugese and dutch.he had ambassadors in powerful European kindoms and countries to further diplomacy! The Opobo Ibani Ijaw people were the 1st to settle in Europe and USA as free people with stamp recognition s diplomats from Jaja the great king. Read what is on the sculpture I posted. Chief Peterside was one of the Ambassadors of King Jaja in Europe! One of his great grand children dr peterside happens to be the first optician in Nigeria and another of his son 1st engineer in nigeria. Another of his offspring Atedo peterside chairman ibtc and another soon to be governor of Rivers State. The chief Epelle built the 1st Anglican church in Nigeria. One of his grand child,the 1st mass communication expert innigeria! Introducing the course in nigeria 1st in Unilag! 1st director general nigeria ministry of information! Capt. uranta,the. 1st known black to navigate a ship to Europe! How then did u think King Jaja went to Europe to make sale and make profit?how then do u think king Jaja send his kids to study in England? How then did he send his diplomats and lawyers to Europe?How did opobo people travel and send kids abroad to study,King jaja had a fleet of royal vessels/ships that traded in open waters just like European kingdoms! We had engineers,administrators,capts.lawyers! The kingdom was organise! The European business men had had houses in Opobo town and related with the people as equals ! Visit and blow ur mind and don't rely on secondary data. Till date the Kingdom of Opobo is still pressing the Un to compel the British to pay damages to Opobo kingdom

It seems that, like your friend earlier, you lack comprehension skills.

What Blame did I place anywhere?

I only pointed that Jaja was solely protecting his interests when he squared up to the British, and not protecting the interest of his people.

Was there a hostile takeover? Yes.

Did I give him props for being a business man? Yes.

Was he a nationalist hero? No
King Jaja was a ruler who protected his people! Call it what ever name u want! Being nationalist or whatever! He signed a treaty with the British Monarch that gave the nigeria state her independence without bloodshed! Nigeria independence would v been 1st in Africa b4 Ghana if not for the north

EducationRe: 8 Acts Lecturers Display Which Result To Poor Grade Of Students by peleson: 11:32am On Jul 22, 2015
wristbangle:
The educational system in Nigeria and other developing countries is not well organised due to so many negative factors.

Out of these negative factors, the negligence and un motivated behaviour of lecturers has led the poor grade of students.

Therefore we shall discuss briefly on these acts;

1. They skip lectures

Lecturers are fun of this act by skipping lectures for private business. The only time seriousness is shown is few weeks to exam by bombarding students with lectures as they fix it at inconvenient time.

2. They Lecture instead of teaching

The difference between teaching and lecturing is understanding. Most if not all our lecturers dictate notes for students and rarely explain the meaning of the topics.

3. They set exam questions which were never taught in class

I recall my 200 level days on a management course which I read my notebook from start to finish but when the exam question came, I was just staring at the questions like a slow poke. I thought I was the only one thrown off hook but trust greatest nigerian students who turned the school upside down through mass protest.

4. They program evil mindset for students

Because a lecturer has poor grade, he will vent that anger on students by marking them down.

5. They mis-handle test and exam scripts

Some of our lecturers don't have good keeping record let alone arrange document in an orderly manner. In the process of handling test or exam scripts, they misplace some of it as the affected students clamour for poor grade when the result is release.

6. They fail students who refuse their sexual advances

When a student turn down their sexual advances which is a common act for male lecturers, they fail the student without thinking twice.

7. They fix short notice for test and examination

This is an act lecturers enjoy doing by fixing impromptu test or short notice for exam. They deliberately do this to register mass failure for students.

8. They download meaningless hand-out from Internet

I remember a lecturer who gave us meaningless hand-out as we conducted a research to discover that he downloaded it from Internet. The next time he came, we asked him to explain his last handout but he stylishly avoided our question for a vague discussion.
No. 8 suits one Mrs ilori elect/elect dept unilag. She downloads even her exam questions from internet! U can imagine and she is very mean and wicked to students!
