@thenigeriangriot: The British built Mapo Hall on Ibadan's hill thinking it would write a new story for the city. 🏛️ But the hill already had a story. It was soaked in the blood of the Egba who trembled there before colonisation ever arrived. Latoosa's cavalry had already assembled on that same ground. And while empire tried to govern from above — the Oja'ba market women never stopped. Through war. Through plague. Through foreign occupation. Their voices — not the documents of Their voices — not the documents of empire — were the true constitution Their voices — not the documents of empire — were the true constitution of Ibadan. 🔥 No document of empire could write Ibadan down. No document of empire could write Ibadan down. Full lyrics video on YouTube 👉 TheNigerianGriot #Ibadan #YorubaHistory #AfricanHistory #NigerianHistory #YorubaMusic
