To Bini men and Igbo men, they were only entertaining their foreign visitors. They had no idea that they were altering the course of history forever.
The Portuguese enjoyed free sex with almost any woman they wanted, and impregnated as many Nigerian ladies as possible. When the children were born, they came out light-skinned, and that marked the start of the lighter Igbo men and women.

However they do not know that they are partially Portuguese. This logic can be accepted as true, because mixed babies were also make in some Nigerian states when the British came to colonise the country.
