In 100 years, when the story of how Nigeria was destroyed in the 21st century is told, there will be barely a mention of how the United States created a terror group that ended up operating in Nigeria, used the presence of that group as a pretext to invade, with the help of a president who was once part of a criminal gang in the US, and proceeded to appropriate the countryโs mineral development, minerals that power the future of the global economy. All that will be recorded is that Nigerian leaders were corrupt individuals who could not govern and looted everything in sight.
This is exactly how the stories of the 18th and 19th centuries are told today, riddled with accounts of how African chiefs sold their own subjects into slavery, with no mention of how the slave trade became an industry in the first place, who built the trading infrastructure, who sponsored conflicts so that people could be captured and sold, and what happened to those who refused to participate in this forced commercial arrangement.
This is why it is important that we keep exposing the Western extractive structure and documenting it. A one-sided story must not be told in the future.
@_NaijaScope@PeterObi And finally the western powers would never let someone like Peter become the president of a country as important as Nigeria. Itโll defeat their purpose in making sure one of the African giants remain in chains ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
@_NaijaScope@PeterObi And he also cannot incite violence which would be the most sensible things to do. But the that would mean the country would decend into anarchy (which might be what this country needs) but then the powers can now use the system against you ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ.
@40t2_@PeterObi So itโs ok to use thugs to stop the movement of a Nigerian whoever that Nigerian is in Nigeria ๐คฆ๐พ. One day your children will address your foolery
@40t2_@PeterObi Damn wale, this is what you have to say? Iโm sad for you and the future of your children that will live in this same Nigeria. Carry on ๐
@oluwaseun_ajede My brother he was in court, so because there was a political struggle in the state he should have dropped an ongoing court case? he was sure he won an election that was rigged against him and was proved right by the courts. What fighting do you speak of please
