No scream.
Many Nigerians will voluntarily opt for such now if the opportunity resurfaces.

Many are not waiting for the option..... they go after it .... the japa crew ... off to Libya and into slavery.... then they seek repatriation... the FG must come to their rescue.

Africans... sold out by our leaders .... nothing changed... we are being sold out again ... by our leaders .... and we still don't see it.... first exploitation of human resources...... now exploitation of natural resources..... and use of our people as guinea pigs...... butnwe see it as good development.

And after so many years

We still a cry tears

From off of our feet they took the chains

And now seems they put it on our brains.


Mutabaruka.

This is just so sad. Till now, we haven't still gotten loose of the chains. Though we walk around feeling the false sense of freedom, the mental slavery is at its peak.

If not, why will a country like Nigeria be comparing itself to any country in Africa? Is it the natural or human resources?

It's just so sad.

20 Million, no lol. In total to what became the USA about 400 thousand. Brazil by far got the most African slaves in the Americas. 20 Million might reflect the trade with the Arabs in N. Africa over a number of centuries.
