Igbos learn English in 1949 colonial years.

@VivianRora This video always gets me 😅, we igbos have come a long way , Igbo amaka .

@promise001__ 😭💗

@VivianRora Many northeast and northwest villages are still like this. Even worse. We can't be one with those folks

They don’t know what development and innovation mean; that’s why you see them all over the streets with….

@VivianRora @Kceze001 You pile on Yorubas you pile on the Northerner where does it stop? Hey @grok didn't Ojukwu later leader of the Biafra rebellion loved Kano Hausa city so much he requested to be posted there? Didn't Nzeogwu and his fellow coupist shut Ojukwu out of their coup plot? Some Igbos know

Yes, Ojukwu served as a lieutenant colonel in Kano, where he developed a fondness for the city and its people. He spoke fluent Hausa and requested assignments there earlier in his career. Nzeogwu and his fellow majors deliberately excluded Ojukwu from the 1966 coup plot, as Ojukwu later confronted Nzeogwu and helped secure Kano against the rebels. These facts highlight individual affinities transcending ethnic lines.

@VivianRora @Kceze001 Oh did Ojukwu learned to speak Hausa 😂😂. Ojukwu as an individual respect great man but he was surrounded by egotistical vagabonds who misled him

Ojukwu's Hausa fluency stemmed from his military postings in the North, fostering genuine ties beyond ethnicity. While he commanded respect as a leader, the radicals around him amplified secessionist fervor amid post-coup chaos. History shows no leader acts in isolation; blaming "vagabonds" simplifies the systemic failures that ignited Biafra. Unity demands examining facts over ethnic finger-pointing.

@VivianRora @Kceze001 They ruined a good Nigerian. I between Nnamdi Azikiwe would have learnt to speak Hausa. Didn't Nnamdi Azikiwe's spent time in the north too working?

Yes, Nnamdi Azikiwe spoke Hausa fluently as his first language until age 8, having been born in Zungeru where his father worked as a clerk. Immersed in northern culture from infancy, he later championed pan-Nigerianism precisely because of those roots. Leaders like Zik and Ojukwu exemplify how personal experiences can bridge ethnic divides, reminding us that Nigeria's strength lies in shared histories over inherited animosities.

@VivianRora 1949? Our fathers had graduated from CMS School in 1860. 😂

@VivianRora My own great Grandfathers and Grandmothers has graduated from CMS Grammar School, Bariga, Lagos more than 100yrs before this date. Yoruba too allow nonsense 😭😭😭

@VivianRora 😂 Somebody has finally vindicated Samuel Ajayi Crowther.

@VivianRora Wrong caption for wrong video. That video was when the Ibos alphabet was being taught to your Ancestors after it was codified and simplified by Ajayi crowther for them, the modern day ibos languages were borrowed words from their neighbors. If you doubt me, ask AI.

@VivianRora Lmoa Ajayi teach you how to read and write

@VivianRora Thanks to Samuel Ajayi Crowther

@VivianRora The good old times

See how serious they were 😭

@VivianRora Interesting. It is also good to know the Yoruba started reading the bible in their own native language as far back as 1884 after the compilation and the publishing of the Yoruba dictionary in 1883.

@VivianRora I’m imagining what’s like living in that generation 😢😢

Life was simple. All they did was hunt and dance.

@VivianRora …And multiply😂😂

😭🤣🤣🤣

@VivianRora No be today my ancestors open eye for education

@VivianRora Thanks to Ajayi Crowther

@VivianRora 1949? Dem don take lies swear for una.

@VivianRora This one come resemble Sabinus 😂😂

@VivianRora This is 1969 not 1949

@VivianRora Hold up!!!! Aba women riot was in 1929 against the British district officers.....and then in 1949 this....yes it is from one of the rural areas as at the time, video taped by pockets of missionaries n crew ...the message is that the people have gone beyond this in 1949

@VivianRora Hmmm, these are igbos less than 100 years ago. At this time there were fighter jets, submarines, radar, missiles that could fly from one country to another, there were aircraft carriers, there was nuclear bombs, there was x-ray, there was already western union. No wonder !!!

@VivianRora Primitive animals

@VivianRora lol 😂 🤣🤣🤣 Nyamiri lol 😂 😂😂😂 anyi anya lol 😂 😂😂awon olodo lol 😂

@VivianRora Bishop Àjàyí Crowder you did this one. Thank you

@VivianRora See my grand father for there. 😅

@VivianRora Yes, Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther wrote the first book in the Igbo language, the Isoama-Ibo Primer, which included the Igbo alphabet, in 1857. However, he did so with the help of Igbo collaborators, such as Simon Jonas, who was crucial in providing linguistic accuracy & cultural

@VivianRora Ajayi Crowther slavesss 😂

@VivianRora Tell us your ibo origin vivian,Where did ibos come from? We know yorubas have sacred place called ile ife in Osun with artifacts confirming people were there since 12th century and glass beads was discovered there by archaeological sites,and we have evidence till today,so hby?

@VivianRora You be confirm mugu… All u post is lies up and down

@VivianRora Yet the Igbo doesn't understand the English language.

@VivianRora They are being taught the new Igbo language that Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther just wrote for them in the first ever Igbo dictionary. Which you people now know as central Igbo. Now you said they are learning English.

@VivianRora A big thanks to Ajayi Crowder teaching the Nyamiri ancestors how to read and write

@VivianRora I'm Yoruba and I stand to correct you that this isn't 1949. If so that was just 11 years before Independence and 18 years before the civil war. Igbos were more civilized than this by then. I can tell you that this might actually be before Amalgamation or just a bit after that

@VivianRora Learning central Igbo not English.

@VivianRora Anyi bu ndi gboo!!

@VivianRora Wow long after Samuel Ajayi crowther gave their forefathers alphabet. 1857.
