Oga Bini City was never the capital of any southern Nigeria.
Infact most of us don't know you people (Yoruba and others).
The Bini over blowing started with the introduction of Warrant chiefs in Igboland. They used Bini as a template for the abomination. Apart from that, we (Ndigbo) don't know you people like that and never revered you guys.

African fractals

Benin City’s planning and design was done according to careful rules of symmetry, proportionality and repetition now known as fractal design.

The mathematician Ron Eglash, author of African Fractals – which examines the patterns underpinning architecture, art and design in many parts of Africa – notes that the city and its surrounding villages were purposely laid out to form perfect fractals, with similar shapes repeated in the rooms of each house, and the house itself, and the clusters of houses in the village in mathematically predictable patterns.

As he puts it: “When Europeans first came to Africa, they considered the architecture very disorganised and thus primitive. It never occurred to them that the Africans might have been using a form of mathematics that they hadn’t even discovered yet.”

At the centre of the city stood the king’s court, from which extended 30 very straight, broad streets, each about 120-ft wide. These main streets, which ran at right angles to each other, had underground drainage made of a sunken impluvium with an outlet to carry away storm water. Many narrower side and intersecting streets extended off them. In the middle of the streets were turf on which animals fed.

“Houses are built alongside the streets in good order, the one close to the other,” writes the 17th-century Dutch visitor Olfert Dapper. “Adorned with gables and steps … they are usually broad with long galleries inside, especially so in the case of the houses of the nobility, and divided into many rooms which are separated by walls made of red clay, very well erected.”

Dapper adds that wealthy residents kept these walls “as shiny and smooth by washing and rubbing as any wall in Holland can be made with chalk, and they are like mirrors. The upper storeys are made of the same sort of clay. Moreover, every house is provided with a well for the supply of fresh water”.

''The upper storeys''.

Meanwhile we have Nigerians proudly posting British-built storey buildings from 400 years later in the 1900s as being the ''first storey building in Nigeria.''

This alone is the start of your miseducation.

This statement is symptomatic of how DISGRACEFULLY IGNORANT you and so many Nigerians are about your history.

Are you aware that the entire southern and northern Nigeria was a vast textile manufacturing hub before the whites invaded?

And that the colonialists destroyed the industry so we could buy textiles from Europe instead?

Are you aware that We exported soap to Europe before colonisation, because THEY had no soap industry?

Are you aware that Italy had to BAN imported Nigerian SOAP in the 1800s in order to protect the young Italian soap manufacturing industry?

Are you aware that BENIN CITY had street lights and underground drainage a full 300 years before London?

Are you aware that the Benin Empire exchanged ambassadors with Portugal as early as the late 1490s?

Are you aware that in BENIN today sits the largest structure ever constructed by man, the Benin Earthworks and Military Ramparts?

Described by the Guinness Book of Records as "the world's largest earthworks carried out prior to the mechanical era"?

According to estimates by the New Scientist’s Fred Pearce, Benin City’s walls were at one point “four times longer than the Great Wall of China, and consumed a hundred times more material than the Great Pyramid of Cheops”.

Pearce writes that these walls “extended for some 16,000 km in all, in a mosaic of more than 500 interconnected settlement boundaries. They covered 6,500 sq km and were all dug by the Edo people … They took an estimated 150 million hours to construct, and are perhaps the largest single archaeological phenomenon on the planet”.

Are you aware that BENIN CITY, which was essentially the capital of ancient southern Nigeria, was described by European visitors from the 1500s as one of the most beautiful cities in the entire world?

A city where crime was non-existent, and people saw no need to build front doors to their houses?

''Indeed, they classified Benin City as one of the most beautiful and best planned cities in the world.

In 1691, the Portuguese ship captain Lourenco Pinto observed: “Great Benin, where the king resides, is larger than Lisbon; all the streets run straight and as far as the eye can see. The houses are large, especially that of the king, which is richly decorated and has fine columns. The city is wealthy and industrious. It is so well governed that theft is unknown and the people live in such security that they have no doors to their houses.”

In contrast, London at the same time is described by Bruce Holsinger, professor of English at the University of Virginia, as being a city of “thievery, prostitution, murder, bribery and a thriving black market made the medieval city ripe for exploitation by those with a skill for the quick blade or picking a pocket”.

chaloskyx:
Colonial Nigeria was ruled by the United Kingdom from the mid-nineteenth century until 1960 when Nigeria achieved independence. British influence in the region began with the prohibition of slave trade to British subjects in 1807. Britain annexed Lagos in 1861 and established the Oil River Protectorate in 1884. My question is what did they even take from you during this time? slaves arfifacts what else. when they left you guys were just discovering your resources and were independent to actually develop in yourselves but what did you do with it? you squandered it all and you come here lying that colonial masters plundered your resources what resources?
Look at this ignorant oaf typing balderdash.

Just say you have NO CLUE what the colonialists looted from Nigeria, because you are too lazy to study and research.

''slave artifacts''? What are those?

Dumbass cretin.

You think the colonialists came allllllll the way from Europe to fight and kill your ancestors and rule your land for 80 years, just to collect 'slave artefacts'?

Who did this to you people to make you so blind, ignorant, and thoughtless?

The facts:

Between 1897 and 1960, the colonialists LOOTED from Nigeria, commodities which were the OIL of their day and highly prized on the international market.

- Coal
- Tin
- Iron Ore
- Bauxite
- Limestone
- Zinc
- Lead
- Cocoa
- Rubber
- Palm Oil
- Timber
- Groundnuts
- Plus many other minerals and cash crops

These fetched them cumulatively over their 80 year rule, TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS in today's money.

So..... the oyinbos ruled us and exported our resources for 80 years and built not one single university.

Not one industry of note.

Near zero infrastructure.

And a 5% literacy rate (compared to 72% today)

Look around you. Virtually 100% of the infrastructure you see was built after independence.

Before that, everywhere was bush.

I guess it's right time we have this conversation we have been seriously trying to dodge. I totally agreed with this poster
, yes we have problems no doubts but are we where we used to be, hell no! Are
things moving at the rate at which they're meant to be moving, hell no too.

Let's start from Abuja FCT, at independence that's a totally a place not inexistence at all except but little villages, huts and hamlets, today Abuja is a world class city. Lagos, no Victoria Island, Lekki was a swamp, no FESTAC at independence, today we know what we have in those places, and the same thing can be said of every cities and towns across all the 36 states of Nigeria.
Population we were just about around 30 million or so at independence, today over 200 million no country under this planet earth has been able to achieve such massive population growth in the last 60 years, tho it has its pros and cons.
Education, from only 1 varsity in 1960 to over 100 or more today, let's forget mushrooms or not, they can be built upon.
Many cities and towns in 1960 does not have electricity at all, tho today still epileptic but there's electricity and civilization.
We just can go and on about the development that we have achieved as a nation even tho it might be at a very very slow rate but we're developing and we can do more.
At this point, I think it's high time we just sit down and have honest discussions within ourselves either to stay together or dissolve.

Nigeria, Biafra, Oduduwa land, Arewa and other parts of Nigeria shall be great �

Happy Independence.

Now it's people who look exactly like us and they seem to be way worse than the white man.

Back then the white man stole from us and took the monies to their land to build structures, invest etc

Today our politicians are stealing from their own ancestral land and taking the monies to the white man's land to invest in properties.

Hate the white man all you want for what they did but the fact remains that they saw an opportunity to develop their land and they grabbed it with all their might. That's patriotism.

Sixty-one years after the departure of the British, Nigeria is still struggling to stand on her feet and it's mostly because of the facts below.

We no just get sense... It's the 21st century yet still can't speak with one voice on how the country should be Governed. We even have citizens who still sell their votes in exchange for 1 derica of rice.

We have the most unpatriotic politicians in the history of unpatriotism who would rather buy a fifth hoise6in London than build a functional hospital in their home country.

And lastly all what we are suffering today is because of the fact that here faith reings over logic and common sense just as belief is rated above facts and reality.

Kainji dam was our first power plant, commissioned by the Balewa administration in 1964.

Prior to that the British merely imported a few industrial generators to power the GRAs they were living in, while the rest of Nigeria used lanterns and candles.

Nigeria was a near total bush in 1960 at independence with mass illiteracy and malnutrition.

What did your 'perfect white man' do with the trillions he made from our exports in 80 years?

You are VERY LUCKY we gained independence in 1960 which led to mass education investment by the black govts.
