5000 years ago igbo tribe never existed so stop the lies.. even Yorubas and Hausa migrated from North Africa and Egypt down to sub saharan region to settle.

I would like to believe that work was don by some other clans before they finally abandoned the barren land for a better place, the same way igbos have now abandoned southeast trying to move over to lagos, a land that's feeled with milk and honey

Did IGBOS Lead The World To Industrialisation?


World's Oldest Iron Smelting Site Discovered in Lejja, South Eastern Nigeria.

Site Dated To 5,000 Years By Combined Team of Scientists From the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and Oxford University

''Smelting is a process of applying heat to an ore, to extract a base metal. It is a form of extractive metallurgy. It is used to extract many metals from their ores, including silver, iron, copper, and other base metals. Smelting uses heat and a chemical- reducing agent to decompose the ore, driving off other elements as gases or slag and leaving the metal base behind.''

World's Oldest Iron Smelting Site, Lejja, Nigeria, Dated 2,000 BC

Where would the world be today, technology-wise, without IRON-SMELTING?

Should the world not credit IGBOS with this marvellous invention that changed the face of the world, and led to the Industrial Revolution??

Wikipedia

''The earliest Iron smelting was in Lejja, Nigeria. They have carbon-dated slag blocks to 2000 BCE. In a village square in Lejja, located about 15 kilometers south of the university town of Nsukka in southeastern Nigeria, lies what appears to be the oldest iron-smelting site in the world. Arranged in crescent shapes with mounds in the middle across a wide sitting area at Otobo Ejuona, as the arena is known, are hundreds of bits of smelting debris, or slags, recently carbon-dated to about 2000 BCE by a team of archaeologists and other experts from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and Oxford University in the United Kingdom.

Evidence of iron smelting in Lejja: Intensive smelting of iron took place at the site of Lejja, in south east Nigeria during prehistoric periods. This statement is substantiated by the extensive iron smelting debris left behind in Lejja. The debris could point not only to an extensive iron smelting period in the history of the site, but could even represent the remains of a once thriving industry. Iron smelting often involved the community as a whole, and its effects were usually far reaching; from changing the status and living standards of the smelters to the actual development of some African cultures''

The west is the only place to keep your looted funds. Corrupt politicians and oligarchs even from China and Russia keep their looted money in the west.

That's why Nigeria politicians should use public funds to develop Nigeria instead of looting the money and keeping it in foreign banks be it the west or China.

But you forget to tell us how they take out Murtala Mohammed ?
Sure, Murtala Muhammed's issue was that he was geopolitically naive as regards the level of evil these people can reach to attain their goals. He refused to travel with a convoy on the basis that he had nothing to fear from Nigerians, since he was not a thief.

This was what he said when he was asked by journalists why he didn't travel with heavy security convoys.

So he was alone, stuck in traffic on Eko Bridge or Carter Bridge on his way to work at Dodan Barracks Ikoyi, when he was shot.

So a modern Nigerian leader must have AMPLE, TOP-NOTCH SECURITY no matter the cost, to checkmate any western ideas about assassinating anybody.

Before you fight or bash the west, you country should be United. Nothing should divide them. If they discover any form of division, you are a goner.

But Nigeria the case is different. Nigeria is too much divided along ethnic and religious line. Every presidential election looks like a war. The west know all these. They can pitch one tribes against another. Before you know what is happening. Civil war Don start.

Nigeria politicians knows all these things. Nobody wants to be used as a sacrificial lamb by the western powers.
Sometimes we over analyse this Nigeria issue.

All it needs is for a reasonably decent, progressive leadership to emerge, prosperity to increase etc, and all these 'divisions' will slowly fade away.

Hopefully.. wink

Any Nigeria president that bash the west or attack their interest will not find it easy.

Is either they removed you from power or they take you out. Late Abacha and Ex president Jonathan is a case study.

Check all Nigeria president and head of states that complete their Normal 8 years rule. They didn't bash or attack western interest both in Nigeria and outside.

Gowon, IBB , OBJ and Buhari are good friends of the west. They didn't bash them or attack their interest.

Most importantly is that Nigeria politicians are not patriotic! They are the most greediest and corrupt fellows on earth. Can you blame them ? They know the country is not one and they keep dividing the citizens with tribe and religion.

What matters to them is how to steal, loot and embezzle public funds and the dump it in Western bank.

If they criticize the west. The west will seize and freeze their money in their Bank account.
Must they keep their money in the west?

Nothing stops them from moving their money to China or something.

Why are they so mentally tied down to the west?

They need to snap out of it.

Has that stopped Biden from being a president?

There's no excuse abeg.

We need to step up in Nigeria.

Back in the day Kenya and Rwanda were quiet when the Nigeria of Gen. Murtala Muhammed was nationalising British Petroleum and publicly condemning the west for its racist policies while funding anti-imperialist wars in Angola, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, SA etc,

So how come we are now sitting at the back of the class when it comes to confronting imperialism?

How are Rwanda and Kenya and even Ghana now more vocal than Nigeria?

It's unbelievable.

I Want Tinubu To Start Addressing The West Like Ruto, Kagame, and Ramaphosa

Anytime I hear the above presidents, including even the likes of Museveni and Nana Akuffo Addo...

Even when I watch their countries' parliamentary sessions on YouTube, I wonder ''ARE WE IN NIGERIA OCCUPYING THE SAME CONTINENT AS THESE PEOPLE?''

These countries are rejecting imperialist policies of the west on a daily basis.

Saying AFRICA does not want so called 'aid'.

Africa does not want to be pitied.

Africa must be regarded as EQUALS of every other people on this Earth.

Cut the high tariffs you impose on African manufactured goods imports to your countries.

World Bank, Stop the 25% interest rates for funding African development projects while European nations pay 3%.

Ruto, the Kenyan president said IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN that one country in Europe or Asia will call a summit for African leaders to go there and discuss goodness knows what.

If you want to do business with Africa, we will send you a delegation of 2 or 3 officials from the AU.

Or you can go to the particular countries in Africa you wish to do business with.

The other day Paul Kagame of Rwanda scolded one useless BBC journalist that asked him a stupid question.

Asked her ''who the hell do you think you are to tell us what is the right thing to do and not do? Who are you? What is your history?''

Look mehn....

And you know, the great thing about this new mentality among African leaders is that it SPURS them to BUILD THEIR COUNTRIES and end impediments to development which THEY can control.

These are men with pride. WHO KNOW THEIR AFRICAN HISTORY, and know that it was BLACK AFRICANS who civilized the white people and the Asians - everyone.

SO they can never be inferior to their students.

To their children in civilization.

This is the age of PAN AFRICANISM.

The African Renaissance.

Tribalism is outdated.

When the world sees you, all they see is AFRICANS, and they plan to exploit you, and destroy you.

Your tribalism makes their job easy.

Our first step to greatness is to have an ANTI-IMPERIALIST MINDSET.

If you want to extract our resources, build the factory and process it here in Africa.

No more selling raw materials to you, then you process and sell back to us at 10 times the price.

The Nigerians, whose names are Ifeoma Amuche, Chioma Chukwuemeka, Oraka Chiamaka, Akpata Johnson and Chinedu Wilson were given awards for their academic exploits at the University. Ifeoma Amuche is especially described as the best graduating student from the university in that cohort.

A vote of thanks was presented in fluent Mandarin by Ifeoma Amuche on behalf of the recipients as well as other graduands, to a thunderous applause from the audience.

When Bolton played Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal etc, Jay Jay Okocha outshone everyone.

When Nigeria played Brazil in Abuja in 2003, Jay Jay toyed with them, and Ronaldinho was quiet.

Anytime Ronaldinho is on the pitch with JAY JAY, Ronaldinho looks AVERAGE just like you saw in this video.

You people keep saying this whereas to be honest okocha style of play no dey get end product. Football is not just about showboating and making a mockery of your opponent with unnecessary skills. You're just entertaining the crowd. If you wan do that one go play street football.
That's what made someone like Ronaldinho different. He dey showboat but at least he get end product. Why do you think no big club came for okocha? Coz they don't need all those pranks and showboating e dey do for field. Weytin they wan use am do ? Are you here to entertain the crowd and viewers watching on TV or you're here to give the club victory.
My friend SHUT UP. You are talking rubbish. Jay Jay had serious end product and showed it even in this game. Go and watch his YouTube clips. He was a big goal scorer and created numerous chances with his range of passing and dribbling.

The so-called big clubs like Barca and Madrid were SCARED of a NIGERIAN coming in and becoming the best player in their team after the massive hyping they gave the likes of Raul, Iniesta and other players.

Wherever and whenever he played, Okocha was always the best player on the pitch.
