U no go kill person, civilization started from Yoruba, forget those our later day civilized brothers across the Niger,I always take their data with pinch of salt.
The oldest kingdom in Nigeria was the Nri kingdom. Please google before vomiting anything....the nonsense of a fallen angel called oduduwa is only acknowledged in the realm of myth.

Yet you spend time on this thread arguing with unintelligent beings like us, what does that make you?
Someone always happy to debunk the lies of egotistic ignoramuses and empty barrels mainly targeted at Yorubas.

I am sure you are aware of the saying that a lie told a thousand times begins to resemble the truth.

That is what you Igbos always attempt to get away with at the expense of Yorubas and you need to be exposed for your unprincipled and fraudulent behaviour.

N1tw1t. Point is that even a brilliant child can have an unremarkable life if he does not get the opportunity to excel.

Equiano was uniquely opportuned. That does not take away from his personal brilliance but fact is that he had oportunities other slaves did not have.

When you have a situation with Yorubas always excelling, when equally placed alongside others and opportuned as they are, that is proof of a pre-eminent people.

I am sure every ethnic group in Africa has at least one standout achiever or a few.

That does not make them a dominantly pre-eminent people and that is what you unintelligently stubborn, petty, emptily egotistic and envious Igbos can't comprehend.
U knw little about the tribe u banter with.
Ever heard of igbo landing?
No?
I believe so, let me enlighten u a few
An estimated 75 igbo slaves were transported to America
They were take captive below the ship
The igbos slaves being what they, are studied their captors and understood the way their locks and chains worked(no suprises igbos were good in iron tech naturally)
Within a few moment they escaped and went wild on their captors causing one of the greatest mass revolt to slavery by Africans to their European captors (mind u the greatest was in Haiti, a land dominantly occupied by igbos back then, the slaves led an outright revolt chasing all their captors away from the town they were brought. )
The igbos had even caused d European captain of the ship to commit suicide
Seeing dat they were in no man's land and it won't be long before more Europeans came for back up, the igbo chief with the words"the water spirit brought us, this same spirit will take us home", the chief lead by example being the first to drown himself and almost immediately all the present slaves followed as they marched into the water, committing
a mass suicide. The first by slaves in history in contrast to becoming slaves to their fellow man.
How is this for a people huh?
Now I would like you apologise to all d igbos here for ur ignorant accusations and sit down, lay back, reflect and admire such a people.

An igbo man helped abolished slavery, thereby, helping setting you yorubas free...it hurts your "educated, pre-eminent" ego right?

How can anything you and your fellow empty barrels present hurt someone who has shown factually that Yorubas have been enduringly greater, throughout documented history, and more accomplished than you Igbos?

You guys should be embarrassed you want to die over the fortuitous achievement of one single indivdiual, assisted by the goodwill of a benevolent slave master.

Trying to discredit the equiano himself just to spite Ndigbo is the height of stupidity and prejudice
Crass stupidity is you concluding that Gustavus Vassa is an African name or not when in fact o such rubbish was uttered, learn how to read and comprehend. African name or not, Gustavus Vassa was his name.

In fact, what's there to discredit? I don't remember forcing him to list South Carolina as his place of birth, if you have issues with his own account regarding his place of birth, go and dig him out of his grave and rant your rubbish.

Equiano's baptismal record at St Margarete Church, Westminster, dated 9 February 1759, records that he was born in 'Carolina'.

A Royal Navy muster roll from Constantine Phippa Arctic expedition of 1773 says that Equiano was born in 'South Carolina'.

Bruv, they only always end up humiliating themselves and their so-called heroes so it is never a bad thing we indulge their diversive antics now and then.

Would Equaino have become recognised as "the first educated Nigerian", after he originally arrived in the British West Indies, if he had been sent to the cotton plantation of Alabama, as was the fate of most of his fellow slave at the time, rather than Britain specifically for the purpose of him gaining formal education?

Slaves in America were generally not considered for education in the 18th century Equiano grew up in. He was very lucky to be educated because of the benevolence of his slave master, with link to Britain, who prevented Equiano from ending up an illiterate negro on a cotton plantation in the USA somewhere.

To show, the idiocy and desperation of some posters here, how many uneducated slaves, who did not have the opportunity to become educated, gave the world educated, brilliant, outstanding and accomplished folks like Booker T Washington in the 19th century because the offsprings of illiterate slaves began to have greater access to formal education?

Last , last Igbos only end up discrediting themselves to appear an empty and desperate people.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olaudah_Equiano

Pascal took Equiano with him when he returned to England and had him accompany him as a valet during the Seven Years' War with France (1756–1763).

Equiano gives eyewitness reports of the Siege of Louisbourg (1758), the Battle of Lagos (1759) and the Capture of Belle Île (1761). Also trained in seamanship, Equiano was expected to assist the ship's crew in times of battle; his duty was to haul gunpowder to the gun decks.

Pascal favoured Equiano and sent him to his sister-in-law in Great Britain so that he could attend school and learn to read and write.
