The way we worship Lord Lugard in this country, I wonder if we won't erect temples to him soon..

The man was a racist. Like most of his generation to be sure, but still a racist.

Is not a question of being a racist
Did he mention the truth?

Accurate and apt, especially the hausa-fulani menace and the industrious and rebellious igbos.

Still may thunder fire him wherever he is for joining us with people he already knew were menace to any society they attach themselves.

they ask for source this one brought opera news

what Lugard said in his report back to the british Government was similar to this but not this stupidly written

we know people with low self esteem would always write trash because they got marginalised


@Ghettokid1 , do you need me post the section were he wrote and describe you Ibos, or would you desist from writing jargons out of envy about my dear Yoruba

in Lugards words "I make a great difference between the Agricultural Yoruba from the Neighborhood of Ibadan and men enlisted on the outskirt of Yoruba County, or so called "Bush Yoruba" The Former are Physically, Morally and intellectuallythe better men. They are quick Inteligent , good shots, clean and neat in their appearance and on fatigue are more better men than the Hausa or Nupe, those who have seen them highly tried on service, speak well of them"

Oh yee!! People of Nairaland verily the Biafran trouble makers have started again with their usual insult and pull down syndrome just to feel better and should we reply them they label us tribalist or ban us

Lord Lugard is not even known in his home country. Yet, some mumu here would mention his name almost every time they open their mouth.

Lugard was the governor general of Nigeria when you were still a seed in a seed in another seed in a young girl's womb.

You are the governor general of just one room in your apartment building and still owe 1 year rent.

Forgive me if I take Lugard's word over yours.

Thanks
