As long as you are a tribalist, I assure you the fetters that hold you bound will never be taken away.

our innate nature to be tribalists is a natural instinctive way to protect our own against the foreign. This would be very necessary centuries ago but today the world is a global village. The battle for supremacy is not between tribes anymore but between races. The whites, brown, red and yellow races are making progress in this battle but the black race is in the backwaters of life. The white man has kept us in chains, to become entirely dependent on him. We can only break free when we realize where the fight is actually taking place. Tribalism is stagnation.

Nigeria’s rich traditional cultures steeped in parables and adages, the Tall-Tales-telling nature of modern Nigeria and complex tapestry of life brought about by myriad intermingling tribes and rampant materialism breeds natural writers. Nevertheless, I cannot help but ask if his winning story is derogatory about Nigeria or something? This is one criterion for winning. lipsrsealed

Niraland will never inform us when the competition kicks off only to announce the end of the competition. Some of us depends on this platform to inform us of things like this so that we can compete but nothing except irrelevant stories and endgames.

Uncle, this is a forum, where people post news

It just has moderators who monitors what comes here and what shouldn't be posted.

It is nobody's responsibility to inform anyone
