dUDE, if you do not have a job, I suggest you get a hobby and fast. That you would, after watching Avatar, cook up symbolism of ethnic nigerian situation, I am convinced you could only be in desperate need of more intelligent things to do with your mind and time.

PLEASE desist from destroying the AVATAR story by comparing it with the Nigerian tribal situation, especially from the angle offered up by people such as those you mentioned above.

Not it is not. What we have cannot in anyway be compared to the Avatar story at all.
Re: Avatar-the Last Air Bender And The Figurative Nigerian Comparative by Isuata: 9:15pm On Nov 08, 2009
ok lemme giv you one wot we dont have now dat we need so much is the "airbender" and yu know why, hes n embodiment of all four nations; fire,water,wind and earth and he eventually united the nations wen he defeted the fire(tribal lord) wu was pursuin (to him a worthy vision).
in d avatar symbolism, every nation ws fighting for his turf nd nation but a select few of the white lotus were dedicated to cause of freeing the nations and so much themes to symbolise with

you know i almost posted all those symbols and all
but when i think about ow crazy NL pple can be then i refrained from doin just dat


but twas jsut a tot dat came to mind after readin sooo many stuff on politics section of NL


some non-controversial symbols;

white Lotus Sect- dis symbol will be elite and fearless elders we have in the country from all tribes fighting to keep the world(Nigeria) sane and free
ex:NADECO of old,soyinkas.gani's and oda ones too

Avatar Roku: he exists in those past leaders dat have put us wia we are today

The new AVATAR- dis is a symbol we are presently looking for in Nigeria. An embodiment of all tribes and nations dat understands every nature
of all tribes and nations of dis Nigeria Nation.He sthe true Leader we seek in Nigeria.

i ll pause for now
