British Divide and Rule Colonial Policy Caused the Nigerian-Biafran War

I am from Igbo royalty. But I don't believe in monarchy. Because I prefer democracy.

The Queen supported Nigeria against Biafra.

The day the British people end the celebration of their monarchy,  they will begin to realise the true definition of liberation in modern civilisation.

The Greatest Passports of the Decade

The Greatest Passports of the Decade - The Rise of the freedom seekers

MONTREAL, Dec. 27, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - This past decade, we have witnessed the rise of many new trends and the unfortunate fall of past triumphs. But when it comes to the world of global mobility— the 2010s truly left a lasting mark.

Rebellion Against Knowledge is the Cause of Corruption and Destruction in Africa

Hosea 4:6:-
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children."

The worst form of rebellion is the rebellion against knowledge and wisdom. Which is most widespread among blacks in Africa. Imagine how horrible and terrible things would have been in Africa without Western education.

Have A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Compliments of the season with my best wishes to you and your family for the Christmas holidays and the coming New Year 2020.
