Word of the Day: “The soup does not move round in an elder’s belly.” – see explanation https://youtube.com/shorts/XMM8giwXpL4?si=GYTgzLawRrK1x5Ka – Cameroonian Proverb.

Today in history in 1893, “The Kiriji War, the civil war that has divided Yorubaland in West Africa (Southwest Nigeria) for 16 years, ends with the armies of the Ibadan, Ilorin and confederated forces finally disbanding. Up to 100,000 warriors fought for each side at their greatest strength, and the number of casualties during the conflict is not known. The ultimate result is a weakening of all nations, which makes it easier for them to agree to surrender to Britain’s colonising ambitions. Ibadan (pic) becomes a British Protectorate on 15 August.” – Reference: Africa Today Yesterday
