precept reveals to us that a man who doesn’t have the foggiest idea where the downpour

started to beat him can’t state where he dried his body.

The downpour that beat Africa started four to 500 years back, from the

“revelation” of Africa by Europe, through the transoceanic slave exchange, to the

Berlin Conference of 1885. That dubious get-together of the world’s driving

European forces hastened what we presently call the Scramble for Africa, which

made new limits that did savagery to Africa’s antiquated social orders and

brought about pressure inclined present day states. It occurred without African

meeting or portrayal, without a doubt.

Extraordinary Britain was given the region of West Africa that would later turn into

Nigeria, similar to a bit of chocolate cake at a birthday celebration. It was one of the most

crowded locales on the African mainland, with more than 250 ethnic gatherings and

unmistakable dialects. The northern piece of the nation was the seat of a few

old realms, for example, the Kanem-Bornu—which Shehu Usman dan Fodio

furthermore, his jihadists consumed into the Muslim Fulani Empire.
