Did You Know?

Decades of years ago, some of our ancestors (Igbos) willingly drowned themselves in the historic “Igbo Landing.” This act by our ancestors is seen by many as an act of bravery and mass resistance against slavery.
The group of Igbos who were taken as slaves by the European slave traders revolted against the Europeans in the slave ship, and took control of their ship, rather than submitted to slavery, they drowned themselves and the rest is history.
According to history, as they were drowning, they were singing in Igbo (Mmụọ mmiri du anyị bia, mmụọ mmiri ga-edu anyi laa), a song that translates to: "The water spirit brought us. The water spirit will take us home.

Eze Nri Ifikuanim, the Priest-King of the ancient Nri kingdom of Igboland, was a highly intelligent and scholarly king who traded with other kingdoms, including Egypt, Ethiopia, India and as far as Babylon, now Iraq, in the Middle East.
According to Igbo oral tradition, his reign started in 1043 and ended in 1089 when he died.
In 1959, his grave was unearthed by British Archaeologist, Charles Thurstan Shaw (1914–2013) who discovered a burial chamber with remains adorned in robes, bronze crown, sceptre, staff and breast-plates adorned with precious stones that were evidence of a sophisticated Igbo civilisation from the year 948 A.D.
The Kingdom of Nri (Igbo: Ọ̀ràézè Ǹrì) was a medieval polity located in what is now Nigeria. The kingdom existed as a sphere of religious and political influence over a third of Igboland, and was administered by a priest-king called an Eze Nri. The Eze Nri managed trade and diplomacy on behalf of the Nri people, a subgroup of the Igbo-speaking people, and possessed divine authority in religious matters.

History Of The Igbo People Of Nigeria
~1.6 mins read
History is a terrible thing. It chooses to remember those it wants to remember and forgets those it wants to forget. For those it remembers, it breaks the story to pieces and tells it from the beginning to the end, passing it from generation to generation. And for those it refuses to tell, it doesn’t mean that history forgets. It can tell the story some other time or in a different way. Yes, history doesn’t forget a single thing.
Chief Nwakpuda was a known king a brave warrior in his time who said that the rail line should not pass through his village. After the rail line was built, he still insisted that he would not allow the train to go through because it could carry away women of his kingdom.
What killed chief Nwakpuda of ancient Umuahia
The British colonial masters, in a bid to develop part of then East, had carved out a rail line that passed through his village to Port Harcourt.
But, Nwakpuda, was so passionate that he swore that no train would pass through his father’s land. So, on the day the train was to be test-run, he had heard from the town-criers of the event and the brave warrior he was, he decided to enforce his vow and got ready.
Apparently without further revelation of his plans, lest he be impeded, he sharpened his war cutlass and off he went to the rail track. The train driver saw him from afar as he stood with his cutlass at the ready and continued to blast his horn. But Nwakpuda laughed at the approaching “animal,” quipping derisively - I’ve not even touched you and you’re crying - stood firmly and ready to smash it with his weapon. Of course, the inevitable happened.
He was crushed on the rail track.
But you know what? The white man didn’t allow it to go. Such heroism they thought! So, in the place where Nwakpuda died, they built an epitaph in his recognition. So, Nwakpuda, didn’t die in vain. He was a hero and a legend.

Ethiopia Land Of The Free And Brave People

ETHIOPIA - The country that was never colonised.
"Women marched alongside men to the battle at Adwa 126 years ago. Just like their men-folk, Ethiopian women were ready to sacrifice themselves to prevent colonialists from sneaking into their country, thus forcing their children to live in servitude.
Empress Taytu Bitul is clearly a symbolic women she was not only a diplomat and stateswoman with resolve, but also an ingenious commandant versed in the art of war, a tactician par excellence. Taytu collected ten to twelve thousand women in the camp and issued water jugs to all of them, the army of another kind filled their jugs at the river and were ready to carry water to those who fought, wherever they stood. The Italian colonizers even appealed to her on the behalf of their commander as they started suffering from thirst.
“Women’s role at the battle of Adwa revealed the truth that nothing can be done without the participation of women and it would be an exemplary deed for today’s effort to recognize women’s participation all over the world. We generally hear that Ethiopia won the battle. But we ignore the fact that women played decisive role in the victory. There were ten-thousands of women who prepared their fathers, brothers, husbands and sons for the war in which they also took part.
All in all women were the leading force behind the victory of Adwa, they were preparing food and water, providing medical care for the wounded and they were following the soldiers with a slogan of ‘freedom or death’. Lets not forget the role of our great grandmothers.”

Did The Dahomey Empire Sell Slaves In The 18th Century
~0.6 mins read
Dahomey Empire was set up for war not just to extend its territory, but also to capture prisoners and sell them as slaves. Initially, these were confined in the sparsely inhabited country to labor the royal crops. They were later sold to Europeans in return for firearms. The army was mostly made up of regulars who were known for their marksmanship.
It contained the legendary Amazon corps, which was most likely initially a royal guard. While Dahomey prospered, the coastal kingdoms of Allada and Ouidah were upset by competition between European traders who pitted one chief against another, and vulnerable to Dahomey's goal to push along the coast to take its portion of the slave trade. When Soso, King of Allada, died in 1724, two brothers vied for his throne.

~0.8 mins read
We have been directed to compile lists of new voter registration centres out side local govt offices.
The new centers should be in places patronized by many members of the public such as markets, town halls, village squares, motor parks, big churches, higher institutions of learning etc.
The motive is to ensure that all persons of voting age are registered by INEC. The list will draw the attention of INEC to move registration centers to places patronized by many people in each LGA.
All Support Groups for Peter Obi operating in Ebonyi State are requested to participate in order to redress the current low level of voter education, mobilization and registration in Geo-political Zones.
Each local govt co-ordinator of all Support Groups and their teams should prepare the lists.
State and Local Government Co-ordinators in Ebonyi are advised to hook up to Coalition for Peter Obi platform on Voter Mobilization.
A harmonized list of new registration centers in each LGA will be submitted online on Tuesday 8th June 2022 .
Signed
Dr John I Agha
(Lead Co-ordinator Ebonyi State)
