THE QUEST FOR KNOWLEDGE
When you give information to the ignorant man he doesn't just stop been ignorant,he leads others out of the bondage ignorance with him---
EBIEROMA EFE STEPHEN.
Nations are built by philosophers,thinking men and women, by scientists who crave to solve problems with a great Love for humanity and not by lazy men.
We have virtually no idea of how powerful we are as human beings.It was on this issue that the great Robert g.ingersol said "The world is beginning to change because the people are beginning to think. To think is to advance.Everywhere the great minds are investigating the creeds and the superstitious of men.The phenomenal of nature,and laws of things.
I preach,read and write common sense because common sense is not so common among my people.IT is through knowledge we get ideology,ideology has to be something you know about for instance,I'm a freethinker not a Moslem thereby I carry the belief that Mohamed was not a prophet of GOD because of the knowledge I posses about the history of the Koran etc.
One of the greatest problems rocking western Africa is the lack of an " ideology''that is not bent on striping the people of common sense but an ideology that will unite the people in the aim of achieving massive development in their countries,families etc.
One of the solutions to the problem mentioned above is the promotion of our culture, as an urhobo/isoko man I should be proud to tell people about my culture and not join others in demonizing my culture,I should be proud to tell my children I.e when I have them. of our history,of our beautiful stories of old,in other to imbibe the spirit of an ideology and the knowledge of my people in them.
You can defeat a people in war but you cannot defeat their ideology,you can starve them to death but cannot change their mindset The British ruled china but couldn't defeat the ideology of the people,this same British conquered India but couldn't defeat the ideology of the people.
In this chapter of common sense I say no to imported cultures and traditions of other worlds.We love Indian and chinese movies and dresses in this country simply because we love their culture and even their religion but yet demonize and destroy our own is not that foolishness my brothers and sisters.
I speak not against any religion for now but for the survival of our cultures in africa. Nigeria in particular.wake up brothers and sisters we must return and modify our cultures in a presentable format for the benefit of not just us but humanity.
