Goodlady:
APC pikins what are we using for celebration?

Do you want to come around?

Oga stop confusing yourself, Africa copied politics, Google is your friend you can see when Nigeria had the 1st political party

have you seen anywhere Emir, king and chiefs are addressed as politicians.. think naw

Those are the facts
Your disagreements are irrelevant

All kingdoms have their own Politics
They were numerous kingdoms in Africa before Colonisation
Colonisation was a just of continuation of that Politics
That was why the British gave us 3 Autonomous Regions in Recognition
of our Political differences


Ooni Aderemi was the Governor General of the Western Region
It was not a Coincidence
They were all his subjects



Sardauna was a Prince of the Sokoto Caliphate who just missed out on becoming the Sultan
of Sokoto

So you actually think precolonial Africans had no idea of Politics?

If your own people didn't know it others did and used it a lot

The British described Abeokuta as having the most advanced democracy on Earth
4 kings with their own separate people in one Town yet successfully running the Town as one entity

How do you think they agreed with each other and worked together
4 kings holding power among their people at the same time and debating with their chiefs and each other daily?

Oyo did politics a lot
It was hot heads like Dahomey that had 5 Armies wiped out by Oyo
and had to resort to using Women as fighters because of it


Iwo were the diplomatic and Political negotiators of the Oyo Empire .
It was not everything Oyo sent out its Army for.
Military expeditions costs lives

Some issues were settled diplomatically
For example if Dahomey had agreed diplomatically to be a vassal of Oyo and to pay tribute to Alaafin
What would you neeed to send out the Oyo Army for?

It was not Europe that introduced Politics to Africa !!!
It was Politics that Alaafin Abiodun used to relate with Basorun Gaa for years
before Basorun Gaa was finished off

Basorun Gaa had his own Party while Alaafin Abiodun had his own Party


A party is a Political group of supporters organised for governance

Thank god we born last year saw the movie House of Gaa... what happened between Alaafin and Gaa is power tussle not politics ..

We saw GAa oppressing the king and threatening the chiefs , and asides Gaa children, which " Supporters ? which party ? bobo yii funny sha

What Alaafin played with GAa is wisdom, i know i cant win you in a boxing match its left for me to apply wisdom and set you up for jungle justice

Stop arguing or look for small small children to engage

That was Power tussle with heavy Politics!!!

It was Political Wisdom and Sagacity Alaafin used to finally checkmate Basorun Gaa

There was heavy Politics going on in Yorubaland long before the British arrived !!


If not for Political restraint Ibadan Warlords would have fought each other to death inside Ibadan itself !!!
It was Politics that prevented the Egbas and Ijebu from destroying each other because they had a Common enemy
the Ibadan

It was Politics that made Oduduwa to make Obatala his deputy even after he had already defeated him in War
because if Oduduwa didn’t do that Obatala’s Party followers could raise up again with big trouble that could
ruin Ife but they were given a relevant place in the political sphere of things

It was not only Europeans that understood and practiced politics!!

Stop relegating Your Yoruba Ancestors and what they did.
Many Yoruba Kingdoms were founded purely through politics without any War involved at all

It was the Politics of Ile Ife
that led to the founding the Iwo Kingdom
Until Kiriji Iwo Kingdom was known for its unique skill and ability at
avoiding Wars and achieving its objectives through delicate Political negotiations

When you were dealing with tyrants like Kurunmi of Ijaye
who you had no hope of defeating in
War it was Politics that you used to pacify him


It was not Europeans that introduced Politics to Yorubaland!!!!

Your dictionary proves the point

There was heavy politics going on in the governance of Yorubaland
between different power holding parties Long before the Europeans arrived
my of the disagreements were resolved through devates among their Chiefs and people.

In fact many of the Proverbs of Yorubaland today were from those debates they had with themselves
