MY MOST SUCCESSFUL FACEBOOK POST EVER.

This is my most successful post with 470 SHARES and 592 LIKES and still counting... Right now!

I wonder what made it so celebrated. Is it the truth in the words of the original post on 06/08/15 or the generalization (mentioning Nigeria) of the truth instead of regionalizing it (Arewa)? Thus:
...
"NIGERIA WAS EDUCATED BEFORE COLONIALISM, TRUST ME

Tijjani Muhammad Musa's photo.

To put the records straight please. The west did not teach us how to read and write. They came and met us already educated by Islam. We were fully dressed in knowledge and clothes. This picture is sure proof enough, don't you think?"...

Or is it the exposition of the contradiction in the matter or what?

Again is it the vivid complementing image that shows clearly the knowledge we had or is it the fact that whites met us fully garmented in clothes advanced in design and fabrication?

Whatever it may be, none can negate the fact that we were an advance civilization with a functional system of life in all its ramification prior to the coming of the white colonialists. There are proofs in documented history to buttress and attest to that fact.

We must not forget who we are, even if we are being brainwashed to think otherwise.

Tijjani M. M.
