Interesting perspective… like another user said, not to narrate from the perspective of the British. Are you aware, that the bombardment was done by 42 Royal Navy ships? At the time when the British were the authority in naval combat? 8000 Lagosians died because of this seige… because a people refused to give up their lands to be annexed (which was the original intent all along).
You took the words out of my mouth. Africans tell their own stories using the colonizer’s perspective. They were coming to end slavery my ass. They were coming to steal our land and resources just the way they stole our people for 300yrs before.
It's disheartening to see that Fulanis have been kidnapping for so long, even till date it's still happening. The mother of Ajaye was kidnapped in 1821?? That's 202 years ago.
If you're going to retell historical events, please do not repeat the slanted of British perspective. This was solely for control.of an area they claimed as a a protectorate. Meaning they were protecting their so called interest, by military force of a community they wished to exploit.
Yes, I agree this is incorrect, it is the bristi speaking LIES out of their books. The real truth , why they bombed Lagos was a totally different story. Am a Nigerian Historian in Germany, over two decades researching, looking for our hidden histories, where they are hidden in Europe. We are coming online again, we were deleted some years ago, will be back soon, to expose all of them. It is dangerous but we will by His Grace reveal the Truth. The channel is MotherlandSpeaks, Odabo, have a good one bruh. Great comment sir.

Guess they should have taken that 20,000 year head start and developed technology that could compete with the British.

I know certain parts of the history is very painful and uncomfortable but we can't try to hide the history.
