Many are unaware of the role Kano played in the successful moon landing of the Apollo 11 mission in 1969, where Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon's surface. In 1962, USA built a space station in Kano [lasted 1962-1967] towards a space race to beat Russia as the first country to land man on the moon. Russia replied by sending the first man to get into space ,Yuri Gagarin, to Kano. Being geographically located close to the equator, Kano has an advantage for space missions, launches, and communication. Kano has that advantage. Late Emir Alhaji Ado Bayero visiting the ground space station in KanoKano played an important role as a ground tracking station in Project Mercury, the first space project of the USA the success of which inspired more ambitious projects like the Apollo Project that landed the first human on the moon. https://www.gostreetphoto.com/discovering-a-nasa-station-in-kano-nigeria/ 1 Like

Smithkafors:How are you so sure this was not a product of Tribalism? Is there ever a time tribalism was not existing in Nigeria since 1960? 4 Likes |

Interesting. How, why and when did we derail as a nation? Curse Lugard as much as you want, it appeared Nigeria had it good in the beginning. |

LibertyRep:Nope Nigeria never had it good. That country was not supposed to have been a thing. It was Lugard’s failed experiment. Lugard didn’t even gain any public consensus before amalgamating Nigeria.Nigeria is a scam. It is a fraud. It is a lie. No one wanted that country to exist. It was a white man’s lie. How can the nation have had it good? Nigeria within barely its first 10 years as a nation had 4 coups (3 successful, 1 failed) and the bloodiest civil war Africa has ever seen. That country was a failure from the get go. It was like the child that should never have been born. |
