Queen Elizabeth of England and her husband Prince Philip are both great grand children of queen Victoria of England. In the past the entire royal family of Europe were blood relatives. 1 Like |

@Samuk True. Most of the royal houses/dynasties that the world has seen practised inbreeding and incest. Another example is the Japanese imperial house where you can't marry outside the royal family of Japan. A princess tried that recently and she was asked to renounce her right to throne. It was a norm in the Thai Royal household too. |

Old men who have held the country hostage for years hold meetings day and night. They travel far and wide for conventions to discuss how to further wreak havoc on us. They are not just stealing from the treasury, they have the keys to the vault. When given tasks, they accomplish them swiftly. And that is why we feel the pain immediately. But you the young man who is not too young to run, anytime we call for meetings, rallies, protests, we practically beg you to partake. When you come, you spend the first 1 hour chatting with a fellow nuisance on your phone. When we eventually plead to you to be attentive in the meeting, you listen to respond and attack. Not to learn and contribute. For protests, you are too handsome and neat to walk the streets. 30 minutes into the protest, you are already complaining of backache, headache and even brainache. When we call for press conferences to address issues, you are always busy. At the end of the year, show us the proceeds of your being busy- there is nothing to show. Being BUSY but not in BUSINESS. I pity this generation. Is it not oríburúkú ('unfortunate' would not pass the message powerfully as I want) that in a population of over 180 million people with 60% as youths, we are served in 2019 with the choice of Buhari or Atiku? If you don't know, brother, it is called 'eríibú' in Ilorin dialect. There is a name given to you freely by the generous people of Oyo. It is Òpònú ayíradà. Òpònú ayíradà is someone who wants to enjoy the dividends of democracy without giving his shares in the struggle. Show me the Bank that gives dividends without receiving shares! Show me! So I can report to the E.F.C.C. Adeyeye Olorunfemi 1 Like |

samuk:That's why if you read that history very well, you'd see that some of those children born into royalty from incestuous relationships and marriage in the attempt to keep the blue blood within themselves, were born with serious genetic defects and abnormalities. The occurrence or reoccurrence of such genetic defects and abnormalities could have been greatly reduced or totally wiped out if they had married outside their relatives. So you see, prohibiting incest isn't just moral, but also biologically necessary. 1 Like |

cescky:There are many ethnic/cultural groups among the whites that still hold on to their primitive culture and tradition, at the same time, their are blacks who have jettisoned their traditional lifestyles and embraced modernization. So, don't generalize all the whites. Inferiority complex. |
