Who is General Ologbosere

Ologbosere was a renowned war chief of the Benin Kingdom who led a fierce resistance against British colonial rule in the late 19th century. He's remembered for his bravery and strategic leadership in the face of overwhelming odds. Here are some key facts about Ologbosere ¹ ² ³:
- *Early Life and Role*: Ologbosere was the second-in-command of the Benin military and the son-in-law of Oba Ovonramwen, the ruler of the Benin Kingdom. He played a crucial role in defending the kingdom against British invasion.
- *Resistance Against the British*: In 1897, Ologbosere masterminded an attack on a British expedition led by James Robert Phillips, which sparked the Benin punitive expedition. He continued to resist British rule, employing guerrilla tactics and garnering support from local villages and chiefs.
- *Capture and Ex*****on*: After a two-year resistance, Ologbosere was captured in 1899 with the help of some war-weary villagers who had grown tired of British retaliation. He was tried, convicted, and executed by hanging on June 28, 1899, for his role in the attack on the British expedition.
- *Legacy*: Ologbosere's resistance against British colonial rule has become a symbol of bravery and patriotism in Benin history. His legacy serves as a reminder of the kingdom's struggle for sovereignty and freedom.

The British expedition that led to Ologbosere's resistance was sparked by a dispute over trade and sovereignty. The Benin Kingdom had declined to extend "free trade" to the British, who sought to dominate the region. This conflict ultimately led to the destruction of Benin City and the exile of Oba Ovonramwen ³.

I hear people say, "Your time don pass!"-and it sounds like brain damage.

In the West, legends are respected for life. No one calls Jayz or Beyoncé outdated. Their impact is honored.

But here in Africa, especially Nigeria, we're quick to discard our own. That's why we believe our ancestors were evil, while Western ancestors are seen as gods. It's time to break free from that mindset.

If you don't keep adding value to yourself and those around you, your worth will fade-no matter how great you once were.

We must do better. Terryg said So
