The only constant amongst these so called leaders is the fact that they all contributed woefully to the failure of Nigeria. Sadly we still haven’t learned from their failures.

They knew that history classes might trigger a lot of Nigerians, the reason they wiped it off the syllables.<br>Then, Jude was sent to give us the best history classes of all time, time closes all gaps, Jude, we see you and all the hard works put into each series that you put out there, and this is me saying thank you.<br>Thank you for deciding to tell our stories without bias so far.<br>I don't take them for granted.

As someone from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and a big fan of this channel, I’ve always been fascinated by the way you analyze political themes and power dynamics. But honestly, my hope of seeing many African countries truly improve is decreasing day by day.<br>Too many African leaders seem highly skilled at one thing: obtaining and keeping power for as long as possible. They build systems that enrich a small inner circle, concentrate authority, and weaken institutions instead of strengthening them. Rather than creating stable states capable of development, accountability, and long-term progress, many end up looting public resources while ordinary citizens continue to suffer.<br>Watching this series made me realize how often military leaders and politicians justify coups or takeovers by pointing to the population’s disappointment with the current regime. They present themselves as saviors, promising change and justice. But once in power, many repeat the exact same cycle: corruption, repression, violence, and the deliberate weakening of institutions so they can remain in control indefinitely.<br>It’s a tragic pattern that keeps repeating itself across the continent, and for many Africans who genuinely want change, it becomes harder and harder to stay optimistic.

The man that introduced Nigeria to Islamic organization, the man that fought against the will of Nigerians, this Man is evil and should be treated like one.

Most old money were made during this regime. They stole Nigeria's future and are still stealing.

Government is supposed to be public servants; taking care of citizens; not enrich themselves 😢😢😢😢

In Zimbabwe there's a slang word for a man doing good/wonderful things, we call that person "CHIBABA". So Mr Jude Bella you're Chibaba.
