No, according to historical records and research, no country contributed more direct economic and financial support to ensure the freedom of South Africa than Nigeria. [1, 2]
According to estimates by the South African Institute of International Affairs (SAIIA), Nigeria spent roughly $61 billion between 1960 and 1995 to finance the anti-apartheid movement. This massive figure represents direct financial subventions, the forfeiture of trade revenues, and institutional aid, surpassing the individual financial contributions of all other global backers. [1, 2, 3, 4]
To put this contribution into perspective, the financial and material aid from other major global supporters of the anti-apartheid struggle highlights Nigeria's unmatched economic commitment: [1, 2]
Dear South Africans,
Remember we did this for you and today you hurt Nigerians
Is this how to appreciate those that suffered for your freedom

In 1976, Nigeria established the Southern Africa Relief Fund (SARF) to support anti-apartheid liberation struggles. Under the military administration of General Olusegun Obasanjo, all Nigerian civil servants and public officers were mandated to contribute 2% of their monthly salaries to the fund, which became popularly known as the "Mandela Tax". [1, 2]
The grassroots and public initiative was highly successful: [1, 2]
•Initial Government Support: General Obasanjo's administration contributed $3.7 million to SARF, alongside personal donations of $3,000 from the General himself and $1,500 from each cabinet member. [1]
•Public Participation: Civil servants forfeited 2% of their salaries, and students actively skipped lunches to donate their allowances. [1]
•Fundraising Milestone: In just six months, popular contributions reached $10.5 million by June 1977.[1]
•Broader Aid: These funds were utilized to bring relief to victims of the apartheid regime, finance educational opportunities, and support the general welfare of liberation movements. This contribution was part of an estimated $61 billion that Nigeria spent between 1960 and 1995 toward the anti-apartheid struggle. [1, 2, 3]

Correlation is not Causation was what stood out for me as I looked at Exploratory Data Analytics (EDA) in my next Project as an Intern at Decodelabs.
