EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a pivotal moment in Nigerian history - the uprising of native Nigerians against the Royal Niger Company in 1895. The image depicts the courage and resilience of the Nigerian people as they rebelled against colonial rule, fighting for their independence and freedom.
The Royal Niger Company, which had established control over parts of Nigeria, faced fierce resistance from the native population who refused to be subjugated any longer. This event marked a turning point in Nigerian history, leading to the establishment of a protectorate just five years later.
Through this photograph, we are reminded of the struggles and sacrifices made by generations before us in the fight for self-determination and sovereignty. It serves as a testament to the strength and determination of the Nigerian people in their quest for liberation from oppressive forces.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, we are inspired to honor those who came before us and continue to work towards creating a more just and equitable society for all. The legacy of these brave rebels lives on in our collective memory, reminding us of the importance of standing up against injustice and fighting for what is right.
