To understand Nigeria
You need to appreciate where it came from

In 1900, Britain officially assumed responsibility
For the administration of the whole of what we now know as
Nigeria from the Niger Company
And then, gradually over the years
British protectorates were established throughout the territory
In 1914, the protectorates were amalgamated into one Nigeria

Actually, there's one additional detail that bears mentioning
In order to take over the territories from the Niger Company
The British Government paid eight hundred and sixty-five thousand pounds
A huge amount in 1900
So let's establish a simple truth
The British didn't travel halfway across the world just to spread democracy
Nigeria started off as a business deal for them
Between a company and a government
Incidentally, the Niger Company is still around today
Only it is known by a different name, Unilever
But that's another story

(It's Kel-P vibes)

To understand Nigeria
Per capire la Nigeria
You need to appreciate where it came from
Devi apprezzare da dove proviene
In 1900, Britain officially assumed responsibility
Nel 1900, la Gran Bretagna ha assunto ufficialmente la responsabilità
For the administration of the whole of what we now know as
Per l'amministrazione dell'intero territorio che oggi conosciamo come
Nigeria from the Niger Company
Nigeria dalla Niger Company
And then, gradually over the years
E poi, gradualmente nel corso degli anni
British protectorates were established throughout the territory
I protettorati britannici furono stabiliti in tutto il territorio
In 1914, the protectorates were amalgamated into one Nigeria
Nel 1914, i protettorati furono amalgamati in una sola Nigeria
Actually, there's one additional detail that bears mentioning
In realtà, c'è un ulteriore dettaglio che merita di essere menzionato
In order to take over the territories from the Niger Company
Per prendere il controllo dei territori dalla Niger Company
The British Government paid eight hundred and sixty-five thousand pounds
Il governo britannico ha pagato ottocentosessantacinquemila sterline
A huge amount in 1900
Un'enorme somma nel 1900
So let's establish a simple truth
Quindi stabiliamo una semplice verità
The British didn't travel halfway across the world just to spread democracy
I britannici non hanno viaggiato per metà del mondo solo per diffondere la democrazia
Nigeria started off as a business deal for them
La Nigeria è iniziata come un affare commerciale per loro
Between a company and a government
Tra una società e un governo
Incidentally, the Niger Company is still around today
Per inciso, la Niger Company esiste ancora oggi
Only it is known by a different name, Unilever
Solo che è conosciuta con un nome diverso, Unilever
But that's another story
Ma questa è un'altra storia
(It's Kel-P vibes)
(Sono vibrazioni di Kel-P)
Ay!
Ay!
