seeforth1004: Very correct!!. I try to explain to people that the Europeans never came to trade slaves at first because there were no slaves to trade in Africa. The Europeans came to buy gold, cash crop, other raw materials. They never came here to buy slaves at first. Our first trade with Europeans were not slaves!!. After some years of legitimate trade with our people, the Europeans simply exploited those practices that were already here, but which we did not call slavery. They began offering money for someone being reprimanded for a crime or a prisoner of war that would normally have been set free later. Eventually, it gradually became the dominant trade, and the original legitimate trade was forgotten!. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Stallion93:You see. slavery was a global thing. Africans didn't sell each other because they were a different skin tone or because they didn't like the shape if their nose. For most part they( the slaves) and their offspring weren't subject to eternal subjugation. They could buy their freedom and assimilate with their new society. For instance, Igbo and the rivers riverine tribes. (I am not trying to justify slavery in anyway). What most people don't understand including yourself is that whites don't care about you or any black person. They never have. It's all about self interest and "saving face". you Don't be deceived. |

musicwriter:You're wrong to some extent, the transatlantic slavery started with the Portuguese who came to Africa mainly for sugar. They forcefully recruited people from Africa for sugar farms in Africa, when the people revolted, they started transporting them to the Americas (Brazil). Other European powers followed suit |

I have always want to know the elites among our people who promoted and participated in slave trade. But you can hardly find information on this important history. We need to know the individuals and families who profited from selling their own people and whatever roles they played. 1 Like |

I am just pissed up with this nonsense. This woman (Madam Tinubu sold many Yorubas to the French, Portuguese, English and the Americans during her time, she was evil and didn't end slave trade but wanted it to continue so that she can make more money. she, in fact, wanted to poison the General the British sent to end the slave trade in Lagos after cries from the British enlightenment group against the sales of humans in Lagos. Lagos and Dahomey (Benin republic) were headquarters of the slave trade in West Africa. The African elites( chiefs, kings and merchants) of those time sold their people to slavery for a profit. Africans sold themselves into slavery like the elites are still doing till today, selling us into misery while they get rich. The formidable Madame Tinubu, a major trader in slaves and other goods, who strongly opposed the British intervention at Lagos, was believed to be plotting to drive out the British and the Sierra Leonean repatriates and to revive the slave trade (slavery and the birth of an African by kristen mann) the British task force who patrolled the Atlantic ended the slave trade, that led to the British navy bombardment of lagos in 1851 and the installation of king akintoye and later on dosumu who agreed to end slave trade in lagos, madam tinubu and other slave traders were angry and moved to badagry and the ikorodu slave market to continue their slave trading business. If the British didn't stop slavery, Lagos will still be selling slaves till today. MADAM TINUBU IS EVIL AND SHOULD NOT BE MENTION AT ALL. SHE SOLD MANY YORUBAS INTO SLAVERY. MANY YORUBAS ENDED IN FREE TOWN AND OTHER PART OF THE WORLD BECAUSE OF HER. Pls read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagos_Treaty_of_Cession https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_Between_Great_Britain_and_Lagos,_1_January_1852 slavery and the birth of an african by kristen mann 7 Likes 2 Shares |

See mama looking stern in the picture, lol. Her look says it all. She was really a no-nonsense woman in her time. I read deeply about her. She actually married a kanuri man called mohmodu bugara( from north eastern Nigeria) who happened to be her employee. The man later married another wife but still named the children the second wife had for him after Madam efunroye's father's name(tinubu). One of the children was the Saka Tinubu, the educated Islamic scholar who prominent in the ahmadiyya movement in Nigeria in 1900s. Now I can understand why sen Bola Tinubu is so close to the north. |

There are currently many court suits that involves the Administrators of the Estate of Madam Tinubu who are "fighting" tooth and nail to recover a lot of land in Lagos. Obviously these lands are part of proceeds of slavery. These are example of elites like in present day that continue to profit from the misery of the common man. They are mostly found among the political class 1 Like |
