Yeah, that's what most people don't understand. Today I still believe that we caused everything.

Before they came, there were inter tribal wars probably because of land. Africans were fighting each other and keeping captives as slaves.

When the English settlers came, they started selling the captives in exchange for things like mirrors and guns.

Can you imagine, it got to a stage, the Africans dumped gold trade and started kidnapping people and selling them as slaves. Leaders were bribed and they started selling slaves.

I even read that there was a time slave trade was the major commodity for European trade. They destroyed our religion and converted many to christianity. What baffles me is that most of the English settlers were Christians.

The Europeans have done more harm than good. What they did to us is even better, read about the Native Americans, these people were living in America before Christopher Colomubus came.
Europeans owe the world an apology.

AdamuKD:
Nonsense queen of genocide, ask Palestinians, Indians, South Africans and Igbo people. Rot in hell

Argentinians are celebrating live on National television. The Irish are giving them wotowoto on Twitter.

The British are waking up to the reality that they are not that liked around the world.

khadaffi:


If these fact are not available online, how did you find out? You were there? Or as usual, an uncle or relative told you the bullshit.

they've really lied to these young folks.

majamajic:


Ancestors ? The queen was in her 20s in 1950s

no she was 30 by 1956 when she visited.

When their forefathers were still living in the holes, Yorubas were living in the castles.

zaki2:

You people should quit bringing up this story here biko. This will end up attracting insult to ndi Igbo. Besides, there is no evidence that such happened. Ojukwu would have fought for it to the end. This story is false.

It seems you are new to IPOB then. Fake stories na their bread and butter.

ElSudani:


Odutola sold slaves? LWKMD

No he didn't, he was an industrialist.

The same way tinubu make his money from drugs and tell me and you he's a politician
Governor hope was also a well known 419 but his biography won't include that in his history.

Please make we look at this tori oh, e be like say Louis Odumegwu .O, wan enjoy Queen Elizabeth toto and you know the kind of the deal na scam. Queen na smart woman she sabi the game, naso the man do give away for her be that.

EmmaJnr1:
You are correct.

The Queen had visited Nigeria sometime in 1956, signed some papers with a man named Louis Odumegwu .O, took (borrowed) a three full plane load of money belonging to a Bank called ACB, money was over 500billion pounds at that time, masterminded a war afterwards, during that war, destroyed all documents containing the deal (money borrowed) with the said man, about a year after eliminating the said man. Mr Louis was eliminated by the Queen.

Britain worked against the creation of a country as Biafra. Britain was 70% built with money and resources borrowed from the said nation (Biafra). People must understand, the Queen had committed a lot of atrocities in the past, Biafra which should be the richest in the world today, is currently being kept under the carpet. But In no time, this country would be declared, these money would be returned. These are facts you won’t see anywhere near the google or Wikipedia. The mainstream is controlled by the agendists.

Are you minding the flat headed human?

Journalists should also not forget to tell the world how Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband cheated on Queen Elizabeth with another woman, or why are they hiding that part of history?

MonsieurX:


There's a difference between slave trade and colonialism, these are 2 distant eras. The queen never enslaved any Africans, before everybody becomes an online activist, try to get proper knowledge.

Perhaps Mary Slessor too shouldn't have stopped the killing of twins in Nigeria because African societies were "perfect"

Colonialism was what ushered Africa into the present stage of enlightenment and development. What would we achieve without Christianity and education?

Just like the Uju woman insulting people up and down on Twitter, most of you love to deceive yourselves.

What are you even saying so if we remained like d way we were before their arrival we would cease to exist

Abi na modernization they sweet you....

Africans we rich in their own way but the arrival of the Europeans

They created a society unique to them that really didnt depend on money

If the Europeans really wanted to help us they should have given us medicine which our people would have learnt as a skill willingly apart from medicine i see nothing more regarding their help, overtime we could then decide to embrace other aspect that comes with modernization with our own modifications


Let me ask you, what is so special about modernization if as modernise as the world we are yet to tackle covid, hiv that has been brought up modernization itself?

The house was built with solid materials like the Cocoa House in Ibadan.
And probably his children have continued to maintain the house in its former shape

With due respect, SHATAAAAAPPPPPP.

Stop displaying such level of ignorance in public space please.

Corridon:
Why's the house supposedly built in the 50s in coloured pictures but the one with the queen is in black and white? Propaganda is the word here.

I'm from ijebu ode....the house is been maintained n people live inside that house...my aunt is married to the odutolas and live in the building behind the so called castle.
So use ur sense n type reasonable things.

bergs2:

True but you have no proof that that house was built from slave trade.

The so called "independent Africans" who were still killing twins in Calabar and sacrificing humans in Benin Kingdom? Abeg rest!

This is why osus are mad

You must be an OSU

Someone that was born in 1902 and whose business's profile has been listed for you to read and you still went on to call him a slave trader?

gidgiddy:
Interesting story

But I find it hard to believe that the Queen went to Ijebu Ode, and there is no picture of this historic visit

Aunticate this story by posting a picture of the Queen visiting Ijebu Ode as such visit would been groundbreaking at the time

Yorubas are not your mate.

Ijebus,Egbas and Ijeshas. The early wealthiest tribes in Africa. They've been balling since the 18√th century

But the man’s profile mentioned nothing about slave trade, since that had been stopped centuries before. Or do you have another back story to share with us that buttresses your slave money assertions? If yes, kindly share here.

The Queen had zero achievement but celebrated by the same black monkeys whose ancestors she animalized.

Na ur fathers be black monkey not mine. The Queen gave my fathers education,I guess ur own for fathers were in d cave then,that was why they were animalized. Eleriibu

I thought the story was satirical.

Are you saying some people really told/shared and believed that story?

If so, the misinformation problem in Nigeria, especially in the southeast may be far bigger than could ever be imagined.

With due respect bro.. how then did you get to know this?

You don’t know these people like I do. Every single one of them was baptized with the water of lies, hatred, bitterness, propaganda & Cocaine-trafficking from birth.

BurialGround:
I can't believe that the Queen went to Ijebu Ode and return with her head intact.

if they had touched her. The whole ijebu ode will b wiped out from the map
