Lol.

Slavery was the fallout of war since forever.

Jews that you worship have been enslaved several times in their sordid history .

Losers of war risked being enslaved.

In that thread you are referencing, your own Aro did not make any excuse of war but went on harvesting their own to supply the unquenchable Jewish appetite for slaves so much so that Ibo land accounted for the highest amount of slaves traded and sold.

I.like how that thread pain you and FYI,, I am not Yoruba
lol now youre not Yoruba
After starting a tribal rant you have disowned your own people. coward

Nobody else goes online looking for tribal war against Igbo except a Yoruba man supporting Tinubu

Your ancestors sold their own brothers and sisters and children to survive. British forced them to stop it so they resorted to ritual killings. Know this and know peace

Salewa97:
Slavery was not peculiar to Yoruba or even Nigeria alone.

The earlier slave raiders were the Africans themselves.

We should stop this unnecessary blame game. The past is gone, we should focus on the present and the future
You should have reminded your brother about that in the thread he created but you forgot until Yoruba was mentioned

Salewa97:
The article is not about slavery but about slave trade.

So, the question is, which of the Igbo states are located in the Caribbean or South America?

DomPerignon, while youre busy creating Igbo threads like this: https://www.nairaland.com/8586684/slavery-pre-colonial-ibo-land

Remember that your ancestors sold their children, brothers and sisters, to survive in Yoruba land.

This should explain the prevalence of ritual murders and how the killing of one's parents, children, and siblings is not seen as a taboo even in today's world, because generations of ancestors sold their people for food and money. They will even kill and sell body parts for only N5,000 naira or less

THE ECLIPSE OF THE INSTITUTION OF SLAVERY AND ITS IMPACT ON THE
PRE-COLONIAL STATE OF IBADAN, 1873-1900

Salami, B. Olawale (PhD)
Department of History and Diplomatic Studies, Olabisi Onabanjo University,
Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Nigeria
Before the emergence of Ibadan, an ancient city in South-western Nigerian, the Old Oyo
Empire was dominant in Yorùbáland (Jonson, 1921). Old Oyo determines the peace, stability
and progress of the vast area that extends beyond the boundary of modern Nigeria as far as
Togo and the fringes of modern Ghana (Akinjogbin, 1976). It was the collapse of this great
empire that paved the way for the establishment and rise of Ibadan as a dominant power in
Yorùbáland (Johnson, 1921). The new settlement which started as a war camp of the allied
forces of Yorùbáland is currently the capital of Oyo State in modern Nigeria. It was the precolonial city of Ibadan, more than any other Yoruba city, that slave labour was extensively
used in the process of state building. The institution of slavery in the pre-colonial history of
Ibadan was of great significance. It manifested itself in all sectors of the economy and
politics.
Farm products were produced in abundance, various locally manufactured goods
flooded the markets and the distribution and exchange of such goods were effected with
considerable dispatch by the slaves.
The study examined the economic foundation of
the town, touching on very crucial issues hitherto glossed over by other historians.
Nevertheless, Falola’s work did not examine the eclipse of the institution of slavery in
Ibadan. In addition to this, the impact of the cessation of the institution of slavery in Ibadan
never attracted much attention of historians in their laudable efforts to reconstruct the early
history of Ibadan and Yorubaland. This particular oversight is the focus of this essay. The
study examines the eclipse of this all important institution in the socio-economic history of
Ibadan.
The abolition of the external slave trade could be regarded as one of the very first factors that
laid the foundation of the demise of the institution of slavery in Yorubaland.
The British
Government took the lead in this direction and by 1807 it had become illegal for British
subjects to engage in slave trade. By 1833, the institution of slavery was outlawed in all
British imperial possessions. But the Yoruba country was not affected directly by the British
action since; she had not got much foot-hold in the area. External slave trade still continued
in the Yoruba country. This was possible because there were still ready markets, particularly
in Cuba, Brazil and other Latin American states, for the production of sugar and coffee.
The
Global Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences

southern states of North America also formed centres of demand for cotton production in
which slaves labour were equally required (Hopkins, 1973).
Meanwhile, Britain continued
her international bargaining to end the obnoxious trade and by 1860s, when she had annexed
Lagos; and was ready to move into the interior of Yorubaland, most of the European nations
had passed anti-slavery legislation. In the 1870s, North Africa, the Middle East and the Latin
American States also followed the footsteps of the European nations (Hopkins, 1973).
