The Nigerian Ministry of Education has approved a Civic Education Textbook book that described ndi Igbo as a people of invaders and troublemakers. In the history of Igbo people, they are not known for invading people’s land, but here is a book for primary school describing Ndi Igbo as such. The attack on Ndi Igbo is ongoing both in the print media, television and as well as in our schools. Who will speak about this? We have terrible humans in government….Elochukwu Ohagi wrote on “X”

The Ayaba (Queen Consort) Moremi lived in the 12th century,[5][3] hailed from Offa,[6] and was married to Oranmiyan, the heir to the king of Ife and son of the founding father of the Yoruba people, Oduduwa.[7][8] Ile-Ife was a kingdom that was said to have been at war with an adjoining tribe who were known to them as the Forest people. (Ugbò in the Yoruba language, though the said tribe is believed by scholars to have had no relation to the contemporary Ugbòs of modern Nigeria). Scores of Ife citizens were being enslaved by these people, and because of this they were generally regarded with disdain by the Yoruba city-states. Although the people of Ile-Ife were furious about their raids, they did not have the means to defend themselves. This is because the invaders were seen as spirits by the people of Ife, appearing as masquerades completely covered in raffia leaves.
