Keeping everyone (including Africans) completely ignorant about Africa and the central role it plays in the economic and natural world is a core feature of Europeanised education, not a bug. You're not supposed to know that the DRC is the most resource-rich country in the world, with an estimated $24 trillion sitting under its soil. You're not supposed to know that the rise of "western civilisation" from the 15th century on was entirely made possible by European contact with Africa, and that the resources and labour extracted from coastal West Africa from 1492 onwards are the entire reason why both American continents exist in their current form. You're not supposed to know that both WW1 and WW2 were essentially wars fought over the right to African colonial domination and expansion, and that even the uranium that was used in "Little Boy" and "Fat Man" dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki came from Shinkolobwe uranium mine in eastern DRC. You're not supposed to know that the reason the country of France exists in its current form is because tens of thousands of conscripted West African soldiers fought and won against the Nazis in Europe, and the French thereafter shipped them back to West Africa and massacred them at Camp Thiaroye in Senegal to avoid paying them their due wages. You're not supposed to know that there was nothing cold about the so-called Cold War, because the vast majority of the hot theaters it was physically fought in were on the continent of Africa. (Zimbabwe, DRC, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Angola, Eritrea, Zambia etc). You're not supposed to know that the ongoing Ukraine war and the war in the Sahel are in fact the same conflict being fought by the same 2 sides, and that the reason France is desperately pushing funding and arms to Ukraine even as it falls into internal crisis is that Ukraine is acting as its proxy army in West Africa, as it tries to regain its lost colonial territories there, especially Niger where the cheap yellowcake uranium for its famously cheap nuclear energy used to come from before the 2023 revolution. You're definitely not supposed to know that the entire global economy and system of trade as you know it is built on ruthless extraction from Africa and ensuring that Africa does not control anything it exports. You're not supposed to know that "Italian leather" doesn't come from Italy - it comes from Kano, Nigeria. You're not supposed to know that "Swiss chocolate" does not exist because cocoa does not grow anywhere in Switzerland or Europe - it comes from Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria. You're not supposed to know that Israel and the UAE control the global diamond and gold markets even though Israel has no diamond mine and the UAE has zero gold mines, because both resources are literally being stolen from the DRC and Sudan on an industrial basis. You're basically not supposed to understand that the entire geopolitical world as you know it, rests entirely on extraction from Africa, poverty of Africans, and your own ignorance about where everything you use comes from. Completely deliberate 500+ year-old feature, not accidental bug.

First of all, your social media outrage, boos, or cheers are completely useless to me. Nobody here feeds me, and if your knee-jerk emotional reactions made any difference, you wouldn't have that thing sitting in Aso Rock calling itself "president". Whenever you are done crying, you'll drink garri and shut up like you always do. Second, for the benefit of the 10-15% of Nigerians who are still teachable and whose brains aren't completely rotted out by Nigerian Bantu Education and region-specific social media algorithmic programming, I want to ask a rhetorical question. If like most Nigerians, you have no idea that General Sani Abacha established Nigeria's first and only nuclear reactor and nuclear research facility in 1996, the same year the US launched an urban bombing campaign in Nigeria and started giving arms training to Nigerian exiles in a nearby West African country ahead of a planned armed insurgency that was supposed to kick off in 1998 (I've personally spoken to at least one of these people), then what else don't you know about who or what Sani Abacha was? What do you actually know about what his government represented to Nigeria beyond the same things you have heard for nearly 30 years? If it wasn't until as recently as 2018 that Nigeria was forced to give up its 1kg of 90% weapons-grade Highly Enriched Uranium which it obtained from China under the program Abacha's government created, and you had no idea when all this was happening, then what else don't you know about Nigeria? Remember, the target audience of these questions is the 10 - 15% of Nigerians whose brains aren't already calcified and resistant to information.
