John Ezzidio : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Ezzidio
John Ezzidio (c. 1810 – October 1872) was a freed slave from Nigeria who became a successful businessman and politician in Sierra Leone. Rescued from a slave ship headed for Brazil, he was apprenticed to a French shopkeeper and taught himself to read and write. Ezzidio eventually rose to the position of mayor of Freetown and later became a member the colonial governor's Legislative Council. ==Kidnapping== Ezzidio, a Nupe from what is now Niger State, was kidnapped by slavers when he was young and brought to an area populated by the Yoruba. In 1827, he was sold to white slave traders, who put him on board a ship bound for Brazil. The ship was intercepted by the Royal Navy, and Ezzidio and the other 541 slaves who were still alive were landed in Freetown, Sierra Leone in October 1827.
