shymexx: Lol. No be small Stockholm syndrome o. I mean, these people sodomise us, and we still give 'em MouthAction. I fully agree with you that a few can catch a fire, and burn. But what happens after the fire has been lit? Let me draw a parallel with perhaps the only true 'revolution' to have happened in Nigeria: the coup of '66. Now, that coup was carried out by officers mainly from the Igbo tribe with a couple of Youruba guys thrown into the mix. Why? Majority of the officer cadre in the army as at then were from these two tribes, but rank and file from even the North took part in the actual killings. Incidentally or what have you, Zik 'happened' to be out of the country, and with a few other 'coincidences', it got misconstrued as an Igbo coup, irrespective of the fact that politicians from the Southern region were killed too. But I would readily ascribe the fact that some Igbo leaders were spared to ethnic sentiment, which overrode the ideologies behind the coup itself. Now that's a history lesson for another day though. . . What I'm just trying to point out is that should a popular uprising even occur at all, lines would eventually get skewed along the axis of leadership (which tribe would not want to rule?) mainly, not to mention the inevitable hijacking of the situation itself by partisans and misrepresentatives. The painful truth is that a detribalised Nigerian is no Nigerian at all, because from birth, we first pay allegiance to our tribe, before our nation. Tribalism is ingrained in us, so much so that it would be extremely difficult for an interethnic collective group of revolutionaries to sustain the tempo for quite long. Result, balkanization. As for the social media being a tool, with the virtual wars we fight on a daily basis, it is not yet uhuru. 1 Like |

venivedivici: Lol, reminiscent of Dotstar's "Stick up" - All the girls in the club want to hold me for ransom/It's a stick up. I need to do a migraine skank to that lol. For the fire to keep burning, and to achieve its desired goals, hence the need for it to be well organised/orchestrated - based on collective awakening. With that, there can never be a counter revolution. Real passion across the board will always defeat anything bought/induced by cash/ethnic/religious sentiments. Also, I think if the 1966 Ifeajuna coup had been a Nzeogwu coup, it would've been successful. However, those who masterminded the coup had ulterior motives - and the end game, before the rest were coalesced into it, was actually what they set out to do. No revisionism can change that. It was about ethnic domination because a particular region was losing out in the power-play - not a revolution. In a country like Nigeria, the revolution would be about destroying the unitary system - and reversing what Ironsi started. That should be the end game. And with that, and an unattractive center, I don't think any ethnic group would be jostling for a ceremonial leadership with no absolute powers. |

shymexx: Collective awakening. I'm tempted to ask who would bell the cat, who would ignite the spark, who would enlighten this disenfranchised mass. . . But lemme say, Touche. |
Re: Why We Invaded The National Assembly And Fired Tear Gas At The Speaker-Police by Nobody: 3:22pm On Nov 21, 2014 |
venivedivici: Extreme poverty, and the age of enlightenment, with the internet are enough to ignite the spark. However, it seems the Stockholm Syndrome is too acute for anything to permeate the average Nigerian psyche. Coupled with the need to always live in denial. Thus making folks channel the anger/frustration and quest for knowledge into self-destructive vices. But you can't keep the people down forever. So who knows what's going to happen to tomorrow? And human beings are unpredictable. We just have to keep watching to see how everything plays out. |

shymexx: Spot on, man! I feel you. It's like a third rate sado-masochistic porn flick. We seem to have become inured to whatever it is that is thrown at us, we just harden our faces, steel our hearts, inhale the opium of religion, and exhale fatalism. I agree with your last paragraph most. Amaechi? Who knows tomorrow? Above all, the verbal palliative we all overdose on: e go better. |

venivedivici: Lmao, the greatest Nigerian ever, Fela Kuti talked about everything in his music. From 'suffering and smiling', to 'kolo mentality', to 'army arrangement', to 'original suffer head'. Heck, even "lady" and "yellow fever" are prophetic. Great man like Fela Kuti - I need to listen to some Fela tonight when I get home. One love like Bob Marley said. |

APC are too strong an opposition for this ruling party. PDP are too childish in their approach to virtualy everything. They are easily provoked. They don't have mordern solution to whatever the opposition drop on their table. All they rely on is the state police while the opposition keep exposing their weekness to the entire world. I pity this bunch of power drunks. God will soon visit you thiefs. |

Chukwudi44, I think u av matured enof to understand d genesis of d fracas dat happen on Thursday ? Are u sayin dat, u don't knw d reason y Reps went to NASS premises on thursday, and are u also sayin dat, police can't differentiate or identify Hoodlums btw Tambuwal and oda Reps ? And police also ask Tambuwal to show his ID and identify himself, wich he did, despite dat, police stil askin him to wait until d police receive call b4 allowin him to enter. So pls, y again Tear Gas on Tambuwal and oda Reps for God's sake. And y police didn't arrest or show us some Hoodlums dey av arrested or Tear Gas dose Hoodlums? And moreover, Chukwudi, who told u dat, Tambuwal is not a speaker or member of the NASS anymore? Mr. Chukwudi, U are expected to be sayin d truth and commenting abt d rite thing, let some oda young pple learn gud thin and knw more truth from ur comments abt wot is goin on in dis nation instead of all dese rubbish comments of urs, because I av been following ur quotes since all dese days and I discova dat, u are too bias and sayin rubbish truout.. Chukwudi, I pity ur condition if u stil av d believ dat, dis ur president GJ can be d solution to ur life or to ur hardship, dat means u av totally lost. 1 Like |
