Nigeria hasn't changed that much since that time. The Brits are still ruling us indirectly.
Indirect rule, I remember studying the concept in details as a study of political science back in college
Always educative coming here.
Another fabulously resourced and articulately narrated video. This is without doubt my most favourite Nigerian KZread channel.

The pictures of Queen Elizabeth II during her tour of Nigeria (1956) are good.She visited several parts of the country. A short book about her tour with as many photographs as can be found would be a useful historical document.
Taxation was resisted in the South particularly because the European used to pay taxes to the chief & kings of Niger delta before the British through trade & evangelism colonised Southern Nigeria.
The British were more advanced in all ramifications. To topple their structure we need to really Love ourselves.
Nice channel

Indirect rule is why the British became so successful I think 🤔 they were only in Nigeria for a short time and it seems to have worked out OK?
However, indirect rule did not work in the East.

Is it a fact that there were no kings in Eastern Nigeria? Naivety is why one might accept an account that does not tell the actual story.. Onitsha with its Obi, Arondizuogu, and Aguleri were kingdoms And if their reach were not widespread in Eastern Nigeria and conducive to the purposes of the British colonialists , that is just too bad for them, why make it your narrative . Fact checking is a thing .
