The Niger Delta’s Kingdom of Bonny was sovereign.
Okpara Ndoli created the kingdom before 1400 AD. These kings and the kingdom’s founding generation created the lineage/ward/house system of government. The “Amanyanabo”, or king (lit. landowner), ruled over a chieftaincy system consisted of the “Ase-Alapu” and the “Amadapu” (or district heads).
The Portuguese and Atlantic slave trade made Bonny strong in the 15th century. British demand to ban the trade grew in the 19th century. The 1869 Bonny civil war destroyed it. [5] A trace of it remains in Nigeria’s modern aristocracy. Bonny is still inhabited by many tribes.
