This is just neocolonialism in play

U think the white man award is better than being recognised in ur home town by ur king

Stop being a house nigha and let’s build Africa

Do Nigerians really think that the defunct British Nigeria was some sort of paradise or do they not read enough?

British Nigeria was a company not a country.

I've been reading about Olokun and the difference in the origin story of Olokun between Yoruba and Edo Mythos is so random lmao

[Asoro @Jack08974390]

I don’t think you realise that Africa already has been westernised through colonialism, we are the product of mass westernisation in a scale never seen before.

If you mean to rid Africa of its traditional architecture because you see it as inferior, just say so.

@agbadoABAT @jeremy_liit Slave that want to continue being a slave, it’s funny

@batnubu First time I agree with you on something

[Asoro @Jack08974390]

The presence of clubs in Benin has always fascinated me

As you can see the Dutch depicted what was probably either the Uwangue or the Ohen-Okhuaike with a club.

This is actually consistent with a certain Benin Plaque.

The Kingdom of Benin recognised the Brazillian bid for independence first, so its not so crazy

@BruceWayne33159 @sabreengines @polisci4bimbos See, this would make sense if Somalis weren't littered in overcramped refugee camps all over northern Kenya, not to mention the shithole slums in eastleigh

So here is a thread debunking the Wikipedia page on the "Ada and Abere", which both are from the Benin Kingdom.

Lmaooo when was Benin ever controlled by Ife? And if so what evidence is there?

Worst part is Archaelogy by PJ Darling directly contradicts this.

Whoever made that map was smoking something strong.
