Back in the day, no Nigerian was light skinned. Strictly black. Where you work for what you eat. No umbrella or AC, no cream, no medicated soap.

So you can determine the shades of colours of negroes from a black and white picture taken over 100 years ago bah? What a genius.

If not for Christianity that was brought forward to you by whitemen from overseas, what will you have been doing now?
White men knew that Africans are backwards, but they came to preach to us and correct our bad ways.
YOU see your brother as backwards and you come to social media to insult, curse and fight him. If we were waiting for you, nobody will be a Christian.

Nairalanders and tribal war
This is the result of a bad educational system. There used to be a subject called CIVICS taught in secondary schools. It was about Nation building, living with different tribes in peace. Sweeping roads, clearing dustbins...etc.
The removal of that subject from the curriculum has resulted in the anarchy of today.

Everybodies mother

Mother of all was the ideal way African societies considered motherhood before the Europeans destroyed the fabrics of African societies. It is not a European concept. A mother with a suckling baby could have her baby breastfed by another woman, if she happens to be away and not return on time.

Even though she gave birth to no child, she was referred by Efik people as ‘Eka kpukpru owo’ meaning Everybodies mother. She helped in stopping twin killing in eastern Nigeria.

Abobaku... Till today, Yorubas use human beins to bury Oba, they call them (Abobaku).

Thanks God you said, "were" meaning past tense, but yours in present tense.

I noticed too. Thought it was a doll at first.
Probably a twin left to die in the bush while the mother kept the second. Luckily rescued.
