Re: Igbo People Have No Empire And No Heros by Faber(m): 5:15pm On Mar 15, 2021 |
thebosstrevor1:Mr. I have been laughing since I saw your post. Reason because you are not a student of history. If your are a historian you wouldn't have made this post in the first place. First and foremost there is nothing like Hausa Empire or Fulani Empire anywhere in the World. The first person that came up with Hausa Empire and Fulani Empire is you and you alone. Also there's nothing like Igbo Empire. Second the only Empires known in the history of the Sahel and lower Niger are the following: The Kanem-Bornu Empire, The Benin Empire and the Oyo Empire. Oyo Empire and Benin Empires were semi-empires and were dubbed the forest Kingdoms. The only Empire formed by Fulani was the Tekruur Empire in far away Senegal. No Fulani Empire existed in Nigeria. The Fulani Founded the Sokoto Caliphate in 1804 after a jihad that subdued the Hausa Kingdoms. The Caliphate was dismantled by the British in 1903. The Ancient and most organized Empire in the North is the Kanem-Bornu Empire and it was not a Hausa Empire, it was formed by the Bornu people of the lake Chad Basin. They are now in Cameroun, Lake Chad Basin and North East Nigeria. They were ruled by the Mai(s) I can recall Mai Dunama I and Mai Dunama II. Then, in the Lower Niger were the Kingdoms of Benin and Kingdom of Biafar(Biafar) Op what we have today as Bight of Bonny was actually Bight of Biafra in the 17th Century map of Africa. Later on the Hausa Knigdoms emerged with the most notable Monarch, Queen Amina. They were subdued by the Jihadists from Senegal who established the Sokoto Caliphate. Kaduna still retains the head of Political Arewa land, because of Zaria, While Sokoto is the Islamic Religious head of Arewa land. The Sultan presides from Sokoto, while the political head was in Kaduna...where Ahmadu Bello presided as Premier. The lower Niger was made up of the Kingdom of Biafar, and was made up of other tiny kingdoms, The Aro Kingdom, the Igbo-Ukwu Kingdom, the Opobo kingdom etc. Now op you said you don't know any Kingdom of Igbo extraction? the Kingdom of Opobo was it in Eastern Kenya? or Eastern Brazil? You don't know any Hero of Igbo extraction who resisted the British. Is king Jaja of Opobo from Arewa land? Before you say Opobo is not Igbo, and not in Eastern Nigeria. I have been to Opobo, they are partly in Abia State and Rivers State. They are minority in Rivers. Every toddler in Abia State around Ogbor Hill, will even take you to Opobo jucntion, you will take a bike to Ndoki land and Opobo. Opobo people told me that they ought to be in Abia State. That's why Rivers State neglected them. Governor Orji Uzor Kalu fought to bring them back together with Obigbo but all his attempts were futile. The military who created the states caused a lot of confusion and removed many communities from their ancestral home lands. Jaja of Opobo was a slave boy from Nkwerre in present day Imo State. Let me just wait till your post makes front page. Then I will counter your thread and dismantle your yeye claims. I have not even entered my library to make some research and bombard your nonsense with missiles from both ancient and modern history of the African continent, especially the Sahel and sub Sahara regions. 5 Likes |

Faber: This page isn't going to reach front page, let's forget about it. Stop stealing people history and then turn it into igbo history. Jaja of opobo was never a igbo man, never had a igbo name and is not from nkwerre, imo or abia state. I believe you dont know about the sokoto empire or caliphate which controlled kingdoms to as far as illorin. |

thebosstrevor1: The saddest part of your ignorance and stupidity is that somewhere in the village, your poor unfortunate parents who suffered to send you to school to at least acquire some basic education will be thinking their sweat wasn't in vain... even my 10 year old brother knows Jaja was an Igbo born in the old Orlu division precisely where he was captured and sold as a slave and his name was consequently changed. I mean we all learned this simply facts of history back in primary school when we took social studies! seriously are you this incorrigibly daft or are you just trolling for the want of it? 3 Likes |

...stop twisting history to fit your narrative and you guys should stop abusing people when responding it makes people see you as uncivilized individuals who can not have a conversation without getting emotional. you are supposed to showcase your history no matter how big or small. sell the truth no matter how small in time people would love and appreciate it. Afonja story with Alimi is the most regretable to the Yorubas on every angle but we are not going to twist the history to get sympathy or bragging right. Tobrasky: 1 Like 1 Share |
