This is a pretty good video! I have an interest in history of the first world war, I hardly hear anything about what the continent had went through.
Good video man. Thanks for the information.
Just discovered this channel. Thank you 🙏🏽 keep them coming 👏🏾
just found this through an ad, I never knew anything really about Nigeria in ww1, glad I do now though!
Same !
Same! Glad I clicked it
Hugh Clifford sounds like someone we should all know. Apparently, Suppressing good men in this country didn't start today.
Thanks a lot for the enlightenment.
I feel he wasn't expounded on enough, I remember that he was thought in primary and secondary education sha, that is if you did government
I my opinion all of this should be taught in Nigerian schools so we wouldn’t make the same exact mistake again. #spreadtheword our leaders are still slaves to white people and this is affecting our people immensely are a huge reason of the poverty in Nigeria
Samuel John nope. Your country would fail without the trade from the other nations you racist.
@@alastairpearce3078 shhhh, russian. Let the Nigerians have this.
The Gaming Johnson They failed because of other Nations. You must’ve learned nothing about Colonialism.
@@samh3805 You Clearly haven't as Colonialism wasn't outright awful it allowed the spread of new forms of government, sharing of technology, Building of trade relations
@@crumpetgamer It also lead to the Insane Destruction of Knowledge. It was absolutely outright awful, it lead to Starvation.
Nice to see african history written and presented by an actual african for once. Good video ill be watching 👀 😎
I found your channel by an ad but I found it to be very interesting, you got your self a new sub keep up the good work.
This was very helpful for me. Been thinking of ways to find mir about Nigerian history. Keep it up!
Thank you! Will do!
I didn't see a notification of this video, and it's been here for over a week 😭😭😭😭 do you know how I've been missing you DR CATEL?!
Me too
Hahaha please hit the notification bell so you don't miss the next upload
Great job bro and your team!! Looking forward to more Nigerian history
as a wight british brother of the human race i like how honest and freshly informative your youtube clip is
The decision to dredge is one of the reason Lagos keeps experiencing flood now. Inland Marshes are supposed to hold back the rainwater after heavy rainfall, but who cares.
Great work brother. Amazing!
surprised to find your channel just now.
this is good content. keep up the good work.
The British not willing to invest in the Long Term Development of Nigeria is similar to today's companies always buying back their own shares to profit shareholders, without much concern for the workers.
I look forward to learning more about your culture, very good video.
Please talk more on the civil war and postcolonialism in Africa
The Image at 2:35 is horrific, British people who celebrate their Empire are simultaneously celebrating that.. atrocious
As a British person, I want to apologise. In British schools we learn about how terribly we treated the people from the countries we conquered: we spend one year on this, it’s not enough. We watch videos about how we don’t spend enough time on the subject: yet people in the classes (they’re 12-13) make racist comments and don’t get punished for it.
Again I’m truly sorry about the horrors that my country has put your country through.
Deku
I also live in Britain, I was born and raised there but my parents are both Ghanian - I agree with you there. What happens is schools tend to only aim to teach the positive things about their countries history, and they avoid the dark things. I think we need to learn about it more, because doing that contributes to things like discrimination and less attention to things like slavery.
Come to think of it, they came into our landmass and the first thing they thought of was to divide based on vegetation? The native leaders could not have known though, we've always lacked foresight compared to the whites.
Very good info video. Please do more
Not sure why this was randomly interested, but very interesting! I knew very little about nigerian history at all, let alone its ww1-era history. (which is my favorite historical period) nice to hear nigerian history from a native.
Glad you enjoyed it
You're killing it
Well done. I am looking forward to more of this.
More to come!
Could you do a video on the Igbo scare in Cameroon
What's igbo scare in cameroon about?
@@somkenechukwueluma6438 Its the samething that happened in the north but to igbos in cameroon.
Wait, are they indigenous igbo people in Cameroon or immigrants from Nigeria?
@@somkenechukwueluma6438 not anymore they forced most of them out during the Igbo scare
Thanks for the information.
Great work
Please can your next video be on the Kamwe people of the northeastern part of Nigeria 🇳🇬. Thank you 😊 keep up the good work 👍🏽
BRITISH PEOPLE: SLAVERY IS bad you must stop it
Also British people: Forced labour is what is best for you
Hey Ronu Spirit.... Please give us a thoroughly researched detailed TH-cam video on the Kiriji war.
We have been waiting for it for too long !!
We are planning on doing that eventually. Things are just really really busy now
@@ronuspirit How about Ja'lumi (perished in water) war too..
100% profit sounds more like theft than business
Brilliant
I love your videos Dr Cartel, however your map of the south-east extending to Madkurdi and Yola is wrong. Please adjust that in future videos for the purpose of educating the uninformed.
Great point... an oversight during the animation process
Yo man good video. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
Nice
@ronu Spirit, please can we get closed captions(CC) for this video. Thanks
Fun fact
Nigeria is still an exportive economy.
This is why African needs socialism. A state (state can mean whatever you want it to mean) dictated by the people for the people.
Nigeria could of took notes from Ethiopia
I was look for exam questions then i see this and i had to click it
what is nigeria
I am half nigerian
They came into our land and divided the spoils,set rules for us,and destroyed our culture
Bingo
European colonialism was a good thing. I'm glad Europe colonized Africa, it was very beneficial in the long run
I’m just getting to understand what’s wrong with Nigeria.
ok
The British modernised the world. However this is a good quality video. They brought medicine, industry and order to Nigeria. My grandad set up the health servide there..
@Cloy d Ejukator sorry you feel that way..
@Cloy d Ejukator so why was africa in the stone age when white people arrived... why so easily defeated? And why did my relative have to train your entire medical establishment?
But this isnt internet facts its real life mate..
The British did not modernise the world, they just went around making self sufficient tribes that had their own traditional medicine, culture... believe they were inferior when they actually were not and using machine guns to bully them into forming one country thereby creating mire disorder and then claiming later they wanted to bring the country to order. Wearing clothes, western education, technology, electricity and modern medicine is not all that it is cut out to be. Also the British just went around the world and basically took a lot of ideas from other countries and presented it as their own during the British Empire especially from Asian countries. Making people believe they need so much crap that they can survive without, thereby reducing the earth's natural resources and causing more deforestation around the world on top of that making millions of people all over the world believe living in the Western world is the best thing that can happen to them to me is not modernisation. Yes I am using technology right now but as someone who grew up sometimes not around so much technology and electricity trust me it is overrated and I can definitely survive without it. Forcing tribes that were just minding their own business and making all of them into one country, then changing their way if life and their currency so they became poor and were no longer able to be self sufficient is definitely not my definition of modernisation. Same way people go around saying Europeans discovered places that were not missing in the first place or did the tribes come and tell you that their river or country was missing. I laugh when people decide they want to be naturist or eat more organic food and meat, or take more natural herbal medications, or use more biodegradable materials to build houses, or get tattoos erm isn't that what a lot of people were doing before some people decided we needed modernisation. The British Empire was not trying to modernise anybody they were just business people who seeked opportunities to make money. If this meant spreading religion, opening a few schools here and there and having infrastructure in place to suit their needs in whichever country they governed that is what they did. Has all the advancement in technology and medicine made the world a better place compared to 200 years ago?. All tribes all over the world have always had their own traditional health care system. Also developing the technology for guns and bullying other countries using this is the only reason the British Empire was able to takeover a lot of countries, it doesn't exactly make them look like Angels
@@nkjv12 so what about steam power, shipping, modern medicine antibiotics impsrtial justice, law and order but most obviously population explosion... people obviously could survive more as they ahd a better standard of living...
I wish we could get family names of these Co-Ops. I am sure thwir descendants are still part of those screwing us now
WW2 West Africa please facts
Hi from a British and we are sorry for invading u
*Please remove that disclaimer about accent. Nothing is wrong with your accent. That is a slave mentality to think your accent is not good enough. Do the Whites put up such disclaimers when talking about non White issues?*
Thank you. It's not like he's hard to understand
I would have enjoyed this more if you would speak up (more loudly). Soft speaking and deep accent make it hard to understand at points. I have to have my volume up 100. But, basically we still had no country and were colonial slaves there like in the US at that time. 🤦🏾♀️
Nigerian troops kicked ass in ww1 and ww2 by the way especially against Italian east African colonies
