Why do our people refuse to fact-check their information? This Arab man from Palestine is being presented as Shehu Usman Dan Fodio the acclaimed visionary scholar and leader who shaped Nigerian history unless provide the sources for such outrageous claims. It’s the same endless cycle of misinformation it’s like that one example of people using images of medieval Baghdad to represent Edo Benin—pure laziness. If you’re this lazy about studying African history, why bother studying it in the first place? It doesn’t make sense.
