Madame Efunroye Tinubu, born on 1805 in Abeokuta, Nigeria, was among the first women to achieve a position of political power in West Africa. Tinubu also fought against British colonization of what today is known as Nigeria, as well as slavery in her region. She was a powerful business person in her time and was given the name Iyalode, a title given to the most influential woman in a town. Tinubu was also a big supporter of spreading awareness about cruelty happening in slavery in both Europe and the Americas.

What Do Y'all Think? Does It Mean The British Should Not Be Blamed Or What? 😤😤 This woman right here is the first Nigerian woman to buy a car. Her name is Efunroye Tinubu. She was a very rich SLÂVE TRADER. In connivance with the portuguese, she exported her own people in ships to work in sugarcane farms in faraway Brazil, Caribbean, and on the gold mines of the United States. Yet the queen is to blame abi? The slavery we even cry about, was it not our own ancestors - kings and village chiefs that captured their own people for the whites to export? In exchange for what? - mirror, porcelain, spirits, dane guns etc. How can a sane human prefer worthless items to his own brothers and sisters - his own kinsmen??? These are the kind of ancestors we pour libation to. Yet we blame the europeans only, when our ancestors were actively complicit - Sent In By Chibuike Nnadi Credit @ogunupdate https://www.instagram.com/p/CiZ-RFAJbcg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
