At first, when my loyal ADC told me about the quest of the white pawns on the board to throw me overboard, giving him $5M as an advance pay. He brought out the money and suggested we burn it since it was an evil money

I shouted; Alhamdulillah! this is the return of African money!

Take it outside and share it round to the men!

My men aren’t just soldiers in Uniform, they are people born with the same mindset and that is to get Burkina Faso working.

Great news

As GT Bank has just announced that they will be closing some of their activities in the country for 4 days following the recent situation which involved the arr£st of VDM!

Over 100,000 Nigerians have emptied their accounts with the bank in the last 24 hours, and their official pages have received over 13,000 rep0rts from Nigerians since yesterday!

Things are not looking good!

GT Bank fe-ars something might happen to their workers as the situation keeps escalating on the internet!

About one mistake Gaddafi did, Sometimes you have to run for your life and live to fıght another day. Lybia was under milıtary rule and was doing fine like Burkina Faso is. The West hàte to see a man in power and doesn't come beg them for anything. He also preached the unit of Africa so they saw him as a thre@t.

When US tried to over throw Gaddafi by promising democracy for emerging opposition party leaders, they began to instigate citizens to hàte Gaddafi. When his citizens rose against him, Gaddafi went into hiding. Ghana and other African countries offered him èxile into their countries but he refused. He said Lybia is his beloved country and the only country he knows. If he must dıe by the hands of his own people then he prefer to dıe in his own country and will not be forced out. He said Lybians will live to regret if they allow the West use them as a pùppet.

We are in 2025, if Gaddafi had decided to go on èxile to Ghana, he will still be alive and ready to help his country again. Today lybia regret kılling Gaddafi. The country is distrōyed and nobody talks about the once famous country anymore. Lybia would have wanted him back into the Country to govern if he was in exile.

There is a saying that, we live to fıght another day. He should have lived to fıght another day to save his country. Now the USA has taken over everything including their oil and gas..

King Jaja of Opobo

Jubo Jubogha started out as a slave and ended up a king in what is now southern Nigeria. Along the way, he became one of the richest men of his time. Today he is remembered as one of the master strategists of the 19th century.

Jubo, later named Jaja, was born in 1821 in a village in what is now Nigeria’s Imo State. As a boy, he was sold into slavery and sent to Chief Madu of the Anna House, one of the two royal family houses in the Bonny coastal region.

In the 19th century, the Niger River Delta was a trade hub with Europe and America. Delta communities shipped Western goods to the region’s interior and returned with palm oil for export. In the delta, with its swamps, rivers and creeks, the canoe was the engine of commerce.

Canoes and their operators were organized into “canoe houses,” led by wealthy merchants, along with relatives, workers and slaves. Some of the houses had hundreds of canoes and thousands of members. In this competitive society, status was based purely on merit and accomplishments. Although a slave could never become a king, a hardworking, ambitious slave could become the leader of a canoe house.

Young Jaja started off with the lowest status in the Anna House — an imported slave, considered inferior to a locally born slave. He worked as a paddler, and even as a boy, he demonstrated a rare affability combined with honesty and genuine business sense. As a young man, he made the uncommon transition from paddler to trader, and he prospered.

In 1863, the leader of the Anna House died, leaving behind staggering debt. The established chiefs refused to take over the house because of the money owed. Jaja accepted the debt and reorganized the house, using his business talents to forge tight relationships with palm oil buyers and sellers. As he prospered, struggling canoe houses asked to consolidate with him. His empire grew.

His trading rivals were consumed with jealousy, and one, Oko Jumbo, wanted to destroy him. In 1868, he got his chance when a terrible fire swept through Bonny. Jaja’s canoe house took the worst of it. Seeing his rival’s financial empire crippled, Oko Jumbo went to war with him the next year.

Jaja was outmanned in the battle and retreated from Bonny. He demanded an end to the fighting, with British officials stepping in to handle negotiations. What Jaja actually was doing was stalling for time — time to reorganize and move his empire north to lands along the Imo River — a spot ideal for trade with palm oil producers and a safe distance from his rivals. The location was perfect. Historians wonder whether Jaja might have been planning to move there all along.

In 1870, Jaja named his new settlement Opobo and proclaimed himself King Jaja, something he could never have done in Bonny. Such was his magnetism and intelligence that 14 of the 18 canoe houses of Bonny moved to Opobo to be ruled by the new king. In defeat, Jaja had found total victory.

Jaja blocked British access to the interior, giving him a trade monopoly. His financial domination of the region came largely at the expense of the Bonny region — and the British.

The British merchants had ambitions. Despite acknowledging Jaja as king, they wanted his territory. In 1887, a consul sailed to Opobo on a fighting ship and demanded a meeting, insisting that Jaja would be free to leave after their discussion.

The consul had lied. Instead of releasing Jaja, he was deported to what is now Ghana. There, he was convicted of breaking a treaty with Britain and blocking free trade. He was exiled to the West Indies. In 1891, he was given permission to return to Opobo, but he died en route.
