The Igbos were already urbanized since the 20s
On to the next one

ceejayluv:
Next, you'll say there were no cars in the 1930's . Nigerians have been trading with the Portuguese even before the trans Atlantic slave trade kicked full gear..... Let's be historically conscious please.

Realtruth2023:
But DMGS Onitsha was a fully built secondary school in the 30s and Onitsha main market was built from an old trading post in the late 20s.
Dude try and have sense.

They cringe whenever they hear good news about Igbo land, their dark Moslem hearts cant take it.


The reason Hausa-Fulanis and most Yorubas hate Igbos is because Igbos refused to accept Islam foolishly like them. You know majority of Yorubas are Moslems, it is mostly the Yoruba Moslems that are always hating and attacking Igbos, the Yoruba Christians don't have a problem with Igbos, same with Northerners, it is mostly the Northern Moslems that dislike Igbos, the Northern Christians love Igbos and have no issues with Igbos.



Their hatred for Igbos is simply Igbo refusal to allow pissful religion become a dominant religion in Igbo land. They have been sponsoring some misguided Igbos to become Muslims, they give them money, give them appointments and government jobs, they give them money to go to Southeast to build Mosques and sponsor them to Hajj just to force Islam in Igbo land, but they are jokers cos even the so called 0.00000001 Igbo Moslems are deceiving them cos they do not truly believe in Islam, they are doing it to get favor from them but deep down they are Igbos, I have some of the so called tiny Igbo Moslems as friends, we do laugh at them, they wont understand, an Igbo man can never be completely Moslem faithful, Islamic doctrines cannot thrive with Igbo culture and way of life, we are too western inclined and civilized to be practicing an archaic religion with barbaric doctrines that is focused on women suppression, terrorism, extremism that makes one see others as infidels that ought to be killed, killing, beheading, no forgiveness, an eye for an eye 👀 the bowing to god of sun, Igbos cant

A touch using battery is not an electric device Oga. Are you a science student at all. Do you actually do physics? The cell in the battery may convert the chemical energy to electric energy but that does not mean it’s an electric device. Can you call a generator an electric device also?

sreamsense:
Stop telling lies! Accept when you are corrected with sensible proves. Many igbos were still naked as at 1960 as Reno onced proved that to you in a convincin. This can not be 1930 picture.

MadPolitician:
But the eternal propogandists said that the easterners were walking around naked and were behaving like the Hadeze tribe at this time in history? Thanks to the Internet for all the revelations

Realtruth2023:
Zik was already in America at that time. There was DMGS already existing at that time.

mightyhaze:
you and your Reno deserve a space in a goat pen

RealTalkNoBull:
Hahaha yeah, right! How many people were in the ENTIRE New York state in 1900? In any event, in 1937, most Ibos still lived in the Rain Forests.

Realtruth2023:
Dude you are highly ignorant walahi. When did the departmental stores begin in Nigeria with UTC and the likes? Before then you had Syrians, Lebanese and Nigerian traders

richmond500:
battery torches, even USA started using batteries in 1947, and u want me to believe we are using it in 1930s?
That pic said electric torch. How many households had electricity in 1930s. When lots of households lives in small mud hut.

richmond500:
No, they are not nearly as fine as those ones in the pic.
Also electric torch came to Nigeria late, we used one kind lantern with glass. electric torch was recent.
Also 1930's pictures are not this sharp, the white colours of 1930 pics are tanned

Laurene:
Sorry your wrong about picture quality.
I've pictures Jim Corbett took when he hunted down the Tigress of Champawat back in 1907...It was clear abs sound; beforehand hand after his expedition.

ajailer:
So 1937, those foreigners u mentioned were already coming to Nigeria, even when WW2 was yet to fully start? If you want to deliberately deceive others by wanting to rewrite history in a way that suits you, count me out of those people. This is obvious insecurity for you guys.

IyfeNamikaze:
There were British colonial officers still in Nigeria back then. And I don't even understand what your argument is, you don't need electricity to use battery torches, all you need is the torch and batteries that stores electric charge.

Zik was already in America at that time. There was DMGS already existing at that time.

How did this historical reminder eventually lead to you attacking women?

If you wan stay and die single, do you na. Must you be bitter to the point of guilt tripping women over an innocent post?? Nawa o
The girl wey show you shege really show you better shege o

richmond500:
That doesn't look like 1937 items.
I'm seeing stainless steel instead of calabash
That doesnt look like the kind of things u find in a mud house.
Slave trade ended in 1940, this man should tell us what he exports from Nigeria for him to import things that only our slave masters could buy.

Realtruth2023:
Dude stop trying to fake that you are igbo, the truth is you are not.
Onitsha started having street lights in the early 40s. Main Market opened in the late 30s. Most igbo traders of old started trading with the British during WW2 when it started in 1938.
Zik had already competed his schooling in the 30s alongside Sir Louis Mbanefo and Co. Mbadiwe was already schooling in the late 30s.
DMGS opened in the 30s, so it shows you are not igbo and lying for you to say what you said.

LegendHero:
Most of Duckworth work are usually tagged 1930 - 1972

I doubt if that picture up there was taken in the 1930s. Duckworth himself was comer inspection of education in Nigeria between 1930 and 1953.

Some probably just took the photo and slammed a 1937 date on it to mislead the unsuspecting public.

Bigkoko:
Awon ndi school na scam gang.....

This picture is for you!

A simple use of Google search engine would have told you batteries and touch cane about in late 1880s.....

No wonder these miscreants still believe Asiwaju will turn the economy around, the same way they're waiting for Buhari to make 1NGN to $1...

IbeOkehie:
That's interesting because that's the same way the Igbo became Christians. They converted for money and colonial government jobs.

Most Igbo don't deep down believe in Christianity same as most Nigerian Muslims don't believe their own religion.

The easiest way to get compliance from a Nigerian is to make them swear on their Native Tribal shrine

The reason for the massive corruption and impunity in Nigerian government is that officials are sworn into office on Bibles & Koran.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Eriokanmi:
I understood. But the bamboo roofs had validated the era. That's what you find in most towns in Nigeria in that era. Even in lagos, except some areas on lagos island. Only ibadan had a handful of houses covered with galvanised iron sheets which had now turned brown today.

They weren't importing those items displayed in that photo in that era rather, they'd go to departmental stores in the cities like John holt who entered Nigeria in 1897 and Peterston Zochonis(PZ) which opened their outlets in Nigeria for the first time in 1884 to buy and resell, same way many states come to lagos nowadays to buy things for resale in their various states. Shall we say those resellers in their states also imparted the items they came to lagos to buy? No!
