We were using guns when your people were still rubbing sticks together. Someone get this Homo Erectus out of here; it's a 1250cc< brain area. That means you're not welcome.
 
The only group that put up a good fight was the Igbo, but they were betrayed. The Europeans had already established bases and forts on Nigerian soil as early as the 1700's, the dervish movement was quelled in 1920, thanks to a British RAF aerial bombardment campaign, the first of its kind on the African continent.

Nigeria was having it's resources extracted while the other was fighting Britain, France and Italy - backed by Ethiopia - and still managed to put up a fight post WWI, all this while being afflicted with warring Sultunates and kingdoms.

And shoutout to the Baule tribe of Southern Ghana, they gave the French hell.
