Keynes took a trip to Bolshevik Russia after thir victory, and he remarked how terribly
religious the place felt. The conformity was stifling like some outsized cult.

These countries were far from atheistic. . .

But surely, the battle against unbelief and unbelievers, peaceful(there is an oxymoron somewhere I know) in recent times, but violent in times past
goes to the heart of Christianity.

ndubest:
Atheist are not born that way
it is things they have heard, seen and/or experienced that makes them think the way they do

Kobojunkie:
The Buhari/Idiagbon regime already gave us a look at what can be accomplised in a very short time in that same country. Why can't we see that we have already seen a sample, all we need to do now is implement the same and this time make sure it is carried out to the end with no interruptions?? The way to make sure there is no interruption of any kind is if the people of Nigeria will take it upon themselves to control the process more than these can.

I find the tale of Japan and China contrasting styles enroute to development.
China's renaissance since Xiaoping's openingof the economy has been drawn out, piecemeal
and littered with tragedies like Tianamen.
Japan's post war miracle on the other hand was focused, decisive and nothing short of revolutionary

Failed or devastated states need leaders that can inspire, excite and create belief. The power of their vision and the forcefulness of
their character negate the compromise that characterises Nigerian politics.

You sure say na lady? Please tell us the truth. No be the watchnight for the compound? It was dark and I am sure you did not see the man well.

But by far, the bigger drama over dress code is represented by the debate of a bill now before the National Assembly titled: "an Act to Prohibit and Punish Public Nudity, Sexual Intimidation and Related Offences". The Bill has passed through the Second Reading stage at the Senate. It is sponsored by Senator Eme Ekaette from Akwa Ibom state, Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Women and Youth Affairs. She says indecent dressing promotes "vices in the society, we are seeing a lot of moral decadence in the society today." She says her bill will help "to preserve cultural norms and values". .Hear her: "If you want to wear something, I believe that there are certain parts of the body that must be covered. You cannot go naked in the name of fashion."

Hungary has threatened to jail a Nigerian, Oludayo Olapite for praising Adolph Hitler and Sz.lasi in a music he released recently in the country. Both men killed many people during the Second World War inGermany and Hungary respectively.

In the video, Olapite, popularly called Fekete, lavishly beams an expression of approval and recommendation for the German politician who remained a totalitarian ruler until his suicide in 1945. He also cast aspersions on Jews and the Hungarian minority known as Gypsy saying, Gypsies don't work, so what are they living on? They do incredible things, really in this country. They scam you, they lie, and you mustn't believe what they say.” Olapite when questioned by the Hungarian police attributed his outbursts to life under duress, the African news said.

He claimed that he was ordered to shout every statement he made during the interview. "I was very frightened because I thought I might never see my girl friend again,"said Olapite whose funny bait often entraps his Hungarian fans. He continued: "They gave me a 10-page-script about Gypsy, Hitler, Jews, blacks and the socialists in which I hardly understood because I was frightened.”

"Although they tried to calm me down as they repeatedly told me they were not racists or skinheads. They convinced me that Hitler was a good man who wanted to do the best for the world. I felt I must do whatever they asked me to do otherwise I won't go out alive".

The producer of the Bombagy·r channel, TomCat, claimed Fekete knew exactly what he was saying. "Of course we explained who Hitler and Sz·lasi were but for P·ko itwas unnecessary for him to probe further. O[b]h, he is not a stupid ni****. I mean Nigerian". [/b]The Bombagy·rTV is often the focus of the media because of its racial and hatred contents. However, Africans in Hungary especially Nigerians have dismissed Olapite's under duress excuse as implausible and annoying.

Archie Bonka, a Ghanaian cultural performer, said that it was silly on the part of Fekete to have publicly praised Hitler and condemned the Gypsy who often calls us their brothers? "Doesn'the know that many blacks in Germany were killed by this man? This Nigerian has already destroyed himself.

It's high time he carried his own cross," he added.

this no be small woman o
I went to primary school with some onyiukes at Enugu.

What? Did she eat all the stocks?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm! She definitely did not get there by bottom power I swear. She must be a super brainy. WTF?

It must be some senator from 4 Play them constituency!  That kind of "Madam Etteh" arrangement!

babyosisi:
that picture na helele

They have seen 8yrs of Clinton . . . but for sympathy votes (female votes), the fact that Obama is not white and fondness for the other Clinton . . . Obama would long have wrapped up this nomination.

4Him:
America is tired of people coming up touting great knowledge of issues. Bush came in 2000 crying about issues . . . today he has a less than 30% approval rating.

The loudest people are not necessarily the best. Rudy Guiliani came in touting a fantastic record as mayor of NY, Romney charms economists and CEOs . . . today the GOP race is between a man who majors in "miracles" and has no idea where Pakistan is on the map of the world and another who is running entirely on having been a POW.

4Him:
what greater command of issues is Hillary showing? She's been hawking her health care plan for years . . . didnt it fail during the Clinton regime?

4Him:
A brave American flipflopper you meant to say? Yeah there is no stopping his lies and contradictions . . . neither is there any stopping him from keeping US troops in Iraq for 100yrs.

The same McCain who once authored an amnesty bill is now crying about border security.  

Go McCain . . . at least u have a fine wife.

4Him:
John McCain is a love-vendor! how such a blonde bombshell be hanging on the arm of such a sack of sagging flesh and falling hair?
He can only win the general elections if all democrats have a flu on election day.

Fine for where?  Dumbo ears, weird complexion, odd facial features. Nah, not my type but hey he's a decent person so whatever.

away4real:
@ 4play so what is your point,

What are u on about, make your point.

morenike09:
ke? Obama is fyn o. . . and his voice rolls with power. . but ehrrrm, his wife needs some 21st century makeover. . .  

I recall 4play/Iman was here gloryfying Rudy Giuliani and Romney talking about educational achievements, where are they now. Same I-man called Obama a master of vacuities, that his campaign lacks substance. He knows more than the bulk of college graduates and youths backing obama. Looking at the support base of the 2 candidates u can tell who the better candidate is.

4Him:
Ndidi Onyuike is actually cute, she's just fat.

4Him:
See the prophets of doom.   Is Michelle not better than that grotesque Margaret Thatcher?  

RichyBlacK:
Thank you jare! Some will start comparing an errand girl for Bush, aka Condi, to a potential first lady!

RichyBlacK:
Many people will question, not just Rice's looks but her personality!

Look at you talking about logic and elite institutions, LOL. You can't even do basic arithmetic very well, and you're coming to talk nonsense. Can I challenge you with a math question? I'll pose a question I'm sure you cannot answer! You want the challenge, Mr. Logic? I dare you, for the third time!

4Him:
Whether you like it or not . . . Michele may end up being your first lady for the next 4yrs. You can suggest a dentist to her then.
Racists!
