Reconnoitering Settler Colonization Part II: Its Emergence in Nigeria | Chapter 11 | Research Developments in Arts and Social Studies Vol. 5

In the first section of this article, I examined the nature, ideologies, practises, and historical progression of settler colonialism on a worldwide scale. As a result, I applied the knowledge I had learned about settler colonisation to the settler colonial experience of Nigeria as it was brought about by British colonialism, particularly the British use of exogenous people in their conquest and "civilising missions" in the Middle Belt of Nigeria, and its long-lasting effects that led to the resurgence of internal settler colonial enterprise in the territories of modern autochthonous communities in the Middle Belt of Nigeria. The approach used is literary and historical analysis, and the theoretical foundation is found in the broader area of settler colonial studies, which is a growing field of study. Then advice is given on how to handle and maybe survive the invasions of colonial colonisers.
