If I should give this the inspiration he needs, na 1year ban Mynd44 go give me honestly.

A grown asss man looking for whom to tell him what to do. Keep waiting while your mates are making the most of the situation they find themselves. Hope when you grow old a pauper and your kids and grand kids ask why you're so poor, you'd tell them "it was because Nigerians failed to inspire you".

These Nnamumudi Kanu's minion tho.

Smh.

Read the comments around and you'd see this is not a thread for displaying Ad Hominem. Or these things don't bother you?

You are a typical Nigerian.
You have left the issue I raised and starts to call me names.

You have no idea who or what I am.
on the other hand bro, what ever makes you happy is okay by me.

My question remains, how sinuous build a nation with such extreme value systems as we have


I wish you well

Then they should form a conditional merger with the working ones.

These people prefer Islamic and Arabian studies to science and Engineering.
Our governors build schools, theirs build mosques.
How will the merger work?

Reyginus:
MalcolmX, how will your proposal take everyone along?

Dangote comes from Northern Nigeria, Soyinka from the West and Achebe from the East. I just don't want to be a victim. Each of these could have one thing or two to complain as to why he couldn't make it in Nigeria. Doing my best for each moment is enough for me, and like those I want my contributions to transcend all these barriers. I am responsible for my life and contributions; I am for humanity. That's all I've been trying to say

They can merge among themselves and form larger zones than fragmented dysfunctional states.

You are not seeing the big picture bro.
Those are just individuals.

I am talking about making a nation great.

As for survival and success in life, I am not a left behind


However, I want to leave a better society than I met.

I am for humanity too. I mean how do we raise the mind of everyone to see it this way. You are forgetting these same people believe in a God who created from Adam and Eve. What other way do you show these people our humanity that is bigger than this? How do you convince a person who looks at you and sees a devil, a betrayer, a desperate man? And this idea he has about you are not debatable? Take the Omenka guy for instance.

Soyinka and Achebe are products of individual hard work and perseverance, Dangote was given N500,000 ($650,000 then) by a 'wealthy' uncle.

I think omenka has a point. Introspection is it. Your life or influence changes the moment you change yourself. Those who understand what it is knows it's not an outside job. It's about themselves.

In Yobe state, a woman was killed by secondary school students because she seized a copy of the Koran used by one them to cheat during an exam.

They accused her of defiling a holy book.


I am still mourning that woman, she was Yoruba by tribe but my heart still bleeds


Everybody kept quiet till today.
What are we scared of?

Oh please don't patronize me. Pretend to be smart for once. No one gives a flying fart about you or what you desire.

Nigeria has a population of over 170mill and has got sufficient problems to deal with, no one should go through a self inflicted agony of telling a grown asss man what to do with his life.

If you're fed up being a Nigerian, go sought yourself out in another country already and stop whining online for the love of Christ.

Bros, people go to bed in their homes.
At 3am. they are attacked, maimed and killed

Their houses are burnt.

Bros, what is your solution to this problem?

It has been happening for years. It will happen again and again.

And that's even the one you know. I was born and raised in the north and fully understand how things work here. The Yobe woman is just one out of many you know.

That's why I'm questioning true federalism. Will true federalism stop this madness? Will true federalism make Nigerians to stop killing Nigerians on account of what happened to foreigners overseas? The issue is bigger than true federalism.

Perhaps, you are not able to comprehend this discussion.

I rest my case bro


Like I said, I wish you well.

Reyginus:


I like the idea of the UAE and USA model but then I don't think it will still be as similar as we expect. What happens when a State decides the impose a particular religion on the masses? Can regionalism solve this? What about violence to people of other regions because of their difference?

Yes, regionalism can and will stop it, because every law you make and actions taken by the people will determine the level of investments that comes to it. If you impose offensive laws and turn violent, investors from within and outside looks elsewhere and because everybody will be busy with themselves, nobody will have any 'dash' to give you and you, your elders and your people will be forced to have a rethink before trying any nonsense to avoid chronic hunger.

My wonder is this, shy are our people afraid of challenging the status Quo?

Why can't they open up debates on the state if the nation?

Omenka resonates well with what real. You cannot change anybody without changing yourself. Suppose you're called evil, what difference does it make if you're sure you're not and don't believe it. Likewise, a criminal will be changed by those who see him first as human than by those who see him as devil.

Really? Do investors really look at these things? I mean say a law, Sharia Law, was imposed on a people in a particular state are you trying to say that investors will not come in? Why do we still have people investing in UAE? Secondly, by allowing this are we promoting human rights or we are destroying it in a so-called secular state?

Yes it can, the reason why that madness remains so is because they know that after every thrash, their commissioner of finance will go to Abuja month end to pick their monthly cheque of N2 billion, so they can continue. Ask yourself, did you hear of such nonsense in the late 50's and early sixties till Gowon created the 12 states that is 36 today with 26 of them leprous parasites.

Change yourself. You don't want anything properly done. We prefer to protect our tribes. When an independent negotiator linked Ihejirika to BH, you said it couldn't be; even without an investigation.

Yes investors consider such things and the major prosperous Emirates in UAE (Dubai and Abu-Dhabi) have Sharia laws but do not impose such on others.

I don't have an uncle to give me N500, 000 but I won't blame it on Oprah or Buhari. I'll try to be my own uncle, maybe then, Buhari or Oprah can help me with a loan (to be repaid).

No, but then there was hatred enough to cause a coup and counter coup. That coup and the pogrom removes any credit regionalism has on peaceful existence. The problems started before independence. That was before the republic even came to be. I think we need more than regionalism.

Just like when Igbos were accused of being BH, I said its a lie.

America and Israel were also accused of being BH, and I say it's a lie.

Recently, Iran has accused Christians of working in partnership to destroy the shia community and Ivan saying its a lie.

Unman Dan Fodio made Rivers of blood in northern Nigeria during his Jihardism.

Was he inspired by Ihejirika, Israel, USA or CAN?

As you love to protect your tribe, so do we love to protect ours.

Enemies of Nigeria ate those who invade Enugu communities and kill them while they are sleeping.

Shall we fold our hands while we bleed for nothing?

Enough.

Myself and My Society. But then what does this your introspection entail? Does it allow asking questions that bother on your existence? Does it cover questions on how we treat a fellow human being? What does it really mean?
