Herbert Macaulay by Erfenis Studios published on 2022-10-04T05:38:50Z Widely regarded as the father of Nigerian Nationalism, Herbert Macaulay was for most of his life a strong opponent of many colonial policies and was regularly on the frontlines of the fight against the colonists. As a reaction to claims by the British that they were governing with "the true interests of the natives at heart", he wrote: "The dimensions of the true interests of the natives at heart" are algebraically equal to the length, breadth and depth of the white man's pocket.".
