Another Story (ft. M.anifest)

Lyrics

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 865,000 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
