The benefits Britain gains from Nigeria primarily stem from historical, political, and economic ties, particularly through trade and investment.

1. Economic and Trade Relations

Oil and Gas: Nigeria is one of the largest oil producers in Africa, and British companies like Shell have been involved in Nigeria's oil and gas sector for decades, benefiting from resources and profits.

Raw Materials: Nigeria provides raw materials such as cocoa, rubber, and other agricultural products which are exported to the UK.


2. Market Access

Nigeria, with a large and growing population, is a significant market for British goods and services, from consumer products to financial services.


3. Human Capital

Highly Skilled Workforce: Many Nigerians migrate to the UK for education and employment, contributing to sectors like healthcare, academia, and tech industries.

Cultural and Intellectual Exchange: The Nigerian diaspora in the UK enriches British culture and economy through entrepreneurship, remittances, and innovation.


4. Strategic Influence

Maintaining strong ties with Nigeria enhances Britain's geopolitical influence in West Africa, given Nigeria's leadership role in the region.


5. Aid and Diplomatic Leverage

Through development aid and partnerships, the UK secures favorable relations, creating opportunities for British companies and diplomatic influence in Nigerian policing

Una go wish tire. lol.

Great Finland is on point.

Simon Ekpa is under protection from ndi iro from enemy tribes, Great Finland also just realized they have an ally in the Igbo nation.


The great Igbos need to stop bashing Europe and acting like they are going to be confrontational with Europe. Europe got great nations that we need to respect regardless of the past.


Look at the west of Nigeria, do you think they like UK, or France, but they forge relationships, same as aboki people, do you think they like America and UK, but they have better relations with them than the igbos.


If the igbos continue being haphazard with their foreign relations, those people in Nigeria will continue to have a higher clout and efficiency than us. It will make all liberation leaders keep having weak points. So, the igbos need to decide, strengthen, and liberate herself.


As for Oga Ekpa, he is fine. The Igbos need to have and keep an unwavering support for the freedom fighting he supports.

i was taking you serious till your last sentence, i asked a simple question in what ways are the westerners milking us and what do they stand to benefit but you that know how to use the internet went to copy and paste trade or economic relation between Nigeria and uk.

The same Britain buys oil, agricultural and other products from russia, does that mean Britain is exploiting or milking russia?

What you listed there are just normal trade relation between Nigeria and Britain.

No problems as long as sit at home will continue and unknown gun men will monitor it no problems at all.
If the armed forces of Nigeria refuse to end this sit at home orders while Ekpa has been detained, it means the government is paying and equipping those boys who carry sophisticated guns to force sit at home orders in the southeast.


Sonofthedevil. You support and pay people forcing sit at home orders of Ekpa for the southeast.
You want sit at home continued in the southeast.


People of the southeast are expecting an end to sit at home after the arrest and detention of Biafra torn coat Simon Ekpa who wanted to finish the southeast with sit at home orders.

Market bro, Nigeria and most of Africa are nothing but a market to the European.

Anything that will diminish that market status (whether industrialization, self determination) is heavily frowned upon.

What surprised me the most was how Nnamdi Kanu easily memorized the new national anthem despite being in prison.
Stay in school, you said no. You said education is a scam. Well your report card is out.
The Anthem is not new. It was Nigeria's Anthem from 1960 to 1978, and then re-adopted in 2024.
Nnamdi Kanu was born 1957, which means he sang the Anthem until he was TWENTY-ONE (21) years old. He did not memorise it afresh nor was it new to him. He had alwways known it
This is basic deductive reasoning education teaches anyone

Finnish authorities have given reasons why the controversial pro-Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa, cannot be granted bail in Finland.

A Senior Detective Superintendent at Finland’s National Bureau of Investigation, Mikko Laaksonen, told Punch newspaper on Saturday that the Finnish legal system does not permit bail for suspects accused of the kind of offences Mr Ekpa is accused of.

PREMIUM TIMES earlier reported that Mr Ekpa was arrested alongside four others on 21 November on suspicion of terrorist activities.

The Finnish police said Mr Ekpa “has contributed to violence and crimes against civilians in South-eastern Nigeria.”

The District Court of Päijät-Häme later ordered that the pro-Biafra agitator be imprisoned “with probable cause on suspicion of public incitement to commit a crime with terrorist intent.”

He is expected to face charges in May 2025, according to Finnish authorities.

Mr Ekpa was indicted for financing terrorism alongside the four other suspects. The police have a suspicion that the Biafra agitator committed the crime of collecting money in violation of the Finnish Money Collection Act. The Finnish police said he allegedly committed the crimes between 23 August 2021 and 18 November 2024 in Lahti, a town in Finland.

IPOB is a group leading the agitation for an independent state of Biafra, which it wants carved out from the south-east and some parts of south-south Nigeria. The separatist group has been linked to some deadly attacks in the two regions, although it has repeatedly denied its involvement in the attacks.

Meanwhile, hours after the arrest, the IPOB faction loyal to Mr Kanu disowned Mr Ekpa last Friday, explaining that the pro-Biafra agitator was never their member.

When asked if Mr Ekpa’s charges were bailable or if the prosecution was disposed to releasing him on bail, Mr Laaksonen responded, “Finnish criminal procedure/coercive measures do not recognise bail procedure. Our procedure is based on, depending on the case, remand or travel ban as coercive measures for limiting freedom of movement for persons suspected of offences to which such measures are applicable.”

The situation implies that Mr Ekpa will remain imprisoned until May 2025, when he is scheduled to face trial at the District Court of Päijät-Häme in the North European country
