The Arabs came first. Don't they teach history in Kenya?

vankelvin:
The Ashanti's are still regarded as one of the powerful Kingdoms in Africa. They had their own governing systems long before the white man set foot on their land.

They had their own centralized systems, their own technologies etc.
But on the other hand your forefathers at the time were jumping from tree to tree, had no cloths nor leaders so we can safely say the Brits helped your people not West Africans.

rvp2018:
Then what happened...why are not advanced now.Ashanti are just slaves... enslaved to their own...then later sold on industrial scale to be American slaves

rvp2018:
You're ignorant

rvp2018:
Since they discovered you like Indonesian badly made prints....you were willing to trade gold and slaves for it...Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish and French did a proper damage on you.Thank the Britons for saving you.Hail the Queen and Kings of England .They save Ghana and Nigeria.

Let me clear your ignorance
Kente is a woven cloth not a printed cloth. Our forefathers were weaving Kente long before the first white man set foot on our shores

I can safely say Obama was the first African president because his forefathers are cut from a different cloth.

rvp2018:
Says who orbit...

rvp2018:
Irrelevant..you didn't have to sell people

rvp2018:
Replace development with trading their subjects for a piece of Kente.Our tribes were too warlike to be enslaved.Infact like Hausa those taken were abandoned or killed.Your Ashanti are perfect slaves..mules

vankelvin:
Which Kenyan tribe, ethnic group or kingdom(if any) comes close to Ashanti's/Ashanti kingdom?

gallivant:
In which world, industry, sport, academia, poetry etc?? What exactly are Ashanti's relevant in?

gallivant:
Kenya is a modern Republic. Very hostile to ancient ways of governance.

vankelvin:
What makes a tribe or kingdom powerful? you say sports?

vankelvin:
Very hostile my foot
Very hostile yet Indians and Arabs were capturing your people for slavely

Just40:
Kente was an Akan invention.. how will foreigner who didn't have that invention trade it?

Kikuyu women were the largest commodity of the Arab slave trade.. the trade later became beneficial to the Kikuyu such that they started becoming slave trade masters and rounding up other communities to trade as slaves.

all your Bantus tribes with uncentralized systems were so week

rvp2018:
Maasai encircled them 40 kilometers in Mombasa...the first European to enter Kenya did so in 1880s..by then Ghana had been a colony for 300yrs.These are ultimate slaves.Kenya fought British and within 50yrs armed struggle again.Without rinderpest and Maasai civil war... European couldn't have come..leave alone cowards like Arabs

Not a single person of my tribe has ever been sold... if you find our DNA out there...let us know.They likely to be good althetes. We are born free...not slaves to any kingdom like Ashanti

Just40:
Before the Europeans ever set foot on west African soil... You had already been slaves to the Arabs and Indians for 500 years ...
Your Masais were so stricken by disease and farming such that they became so weak to be overpowered by kikuyu slave traders who rounded them up to sell to the Arab caravans who pass through Kikuyu lands

As usual, uneducated.

Tie and dye, smog and Kente already existed in all the kingdoms of current Ghana before the first European set foot on the lands of West Africa.


The Brits did nothing in both Ghana and Nigeria and those are documented facts... That is why the first serious political movement against them all started in West Africa.
