      Greed was their motive and they did not sell their loved ones and family, they sold other Africans that they captured and enslaved. @@nyalekambombo4893

      What do you think about the Roman empire enslaving half of Europe for thousand of years?

    Brilliant idea... shame the implementation looks so... um, shabby? If African nations got behind this kind of idea, it would draw a lot more people and investments to the continent...

    Most Nigerians taken to the Americas and the Cariibean had their origins from the East and not Lagos.

      @@chrisoghenetegamaloney5799 See this Sobo man.I thought you are more intelligent than this comment of yours rather than asking me how I reached my conclusion.
      Most of the ones from Lagos went to Brazil and Cuba (Yoruba) while most of the ones to the Americas and the Caribbean were from the East. The records can be obtained from slavesvoyage website. Lagos only became prominent afte the abolition of the slave trade by the British Empire. Such points of entry should rather be in places like Bonny, Calabar or Arochukwu
