In 1934, the British colonial government in Nigeria opened Yaba Higher College, a second-tier institution that offered sub-degree diplomas but not full university degrees. This episode explores the politics behind Yaba's creation, the Nigerian elite's fury at being denied a real university, and the decades-long struggle that culminated in the founding of University College Ibadan in 1948 and the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 1960. We discuss figures like Dr. James Aggrey, Sir Hugh Clifford, Eyo Ita, Nnamdi Azikiwe, and the Asquith and Elliot Commissions. We also examine how Yaba fit into the broader colonial policy of indirect rule and educational restriction — and why the fight for a university became a central plank of Nigerian nationalism. #YabaHigherCollege #NigerianEducation #ColonialNigeria #NnamdiAzikiwe #UniversityCollegeIbadan #AsquithCommission #ElliotCommission #JamesAggrey #EyoIta #HughClifford #Lagos #Ibadan #Nsukka #WestAfrica #HistoryOfNigeria #HigherEducation #Decolonization #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
