I give an example: I took part in the management of PDP and I can’t disown them because I’m part of them. I made an input into its emergence, and if you say it is the worst thing that could ever happen to the country, I cannot in all conscience sit down and say it is because I participated in it.

This his story may not be true

Anduku:
Are you saying Woodward is God that cannot lie?

obixcel: Protests than it being attributed to Fuel taxes only. In fact it's more like a rejection to globalism and globalist control.

Anduku:
More than half of what you wrote here is garbage from the fake news media. Many of them have denied ever saying such

Abbeybailey:
558 points today alone. This will lead to economic recession . More than 4 percent alone in one week. A lot of investors are not happy.

As long as he pays his tithe and contributions he is covered.

Why is bubu afraid to sign it

KingSango:
If y'all don't build a regional military with men from other nations you might lose all of Africa to different groups. Pres. Xi doesn't want to rule Africa.

MuttleyLaff:
The institutionalised church never had an intention for the laity to have direct access to the contents of the bible.
As a matter of fact, the laity was prohibited from owning or having a bible to read
Even translation of the bible, for a long period, initially was forbidden

KingSango:
Chinese tried to help the African because the China want to end White Supremacy. The Chinese brought untold billions that caused the rise of Africa, yet still the African parties, plays, sings, dances, and doesn't secure Africa from the White Supremacists. So the Chinese knows the reality that an Africa in the hands of the White Supremacists is going to hurt China.

obixcel:
Did they Itemize some of the "countless scams" that are catching up with him (with evidence to support). Seems like we heard this before for the past 2 yrs. Take a look at the famous phrases:
"The walls are closing in on him"
"Trump is finished and won't recover from this"
"No way Trump would get to 270...there is no path!"
*to name a few*
What you posted of course was an opinion piece from the Guardian

HappyPagan:
What's more terrible than believing in the God of your colonial masters? What's more terrible than following the words of Moses?

The process of pulling most Africans in my opinion out of the pit of their delusion and ignorance as far as religion is concerned has to be slow, tactical, methodical and steady.

francis247:
Let it be duly noted that I am an atheist. I've been one for over two years. I do not believe in the existence of God, gods, Satan, demon or any supernatural being for that matter. I believe I'm solely and single handedly responsible and accountable for my actions and inactions. I find the concept of this world being under the control of any supernatural being or beings laughable to say the least.

francis247:
I believe that religion was born out of nothing but fear, unnecessary and irrelevant fear of the yet to be known, an infantile explanation to certain realities of our universe.

francis247:
It's this unnecessary fear in most average people that is capitalized upon by most religions to propagate their doctrines.

francis247:
I cannot remember the last time I prayed or went to church. I stopped going to church as I could no longer hold myself from laughing my ass off as the pastor preached or whenever it was time to pray. I did not explicitly lead with the fact that I'm an atheist lest theists, rather than approach the topic and its content from a logical and rational perspective start spewing some bald-faced balderdash as usual but as you may have seen, most of them did not disappoint.

francis247:
My advocacy is that fellow atheists should stop using truculence in compelling theists to see absurdity in the belief in the existence of any God or Demon and this is based on the fact that, as I earlier stated, most Africans are intellectually fragile.

francis247:
Most theists came to the realization that the existence of God, Satan, life after death, etc. are nothing but fallacies all on their own, when they put their belief and faith in a supposed almighty being to work but he failed beyond reasonable doubt. The process of pulling most Africans in my opinion out of the pit of their delusion and ignorance as far as religion is concerned has to be slow, tactical, methodical and steady. They have to be made to come to that realization on their own lest they keep tagging us agents of some imaginary demon. Sadly most of them are lazy when it comes to studying their religious books very well and will hardly put their so called faith in God to work. You need to pass by a church or better still, check YouTube and see what pastors are doing to most of their sheeples, especially the ladies, you need to hear the kind of so called prayer points the congregation is asked to pray. It's very heartbreaking. Most Africans are very religious one directionally minded people. I see the sad, pitiful and sometimes disdainful look on their faces as I tell them that I don't go to church, as they see me cut up in my own space, doing my thing at my own pace, in my own way and at my own time. I can't help but laugh and feel sorry for them at the same time.

francis247:
And no. I do not no consider my self to be just another average African. I have great strength and intellectual bravery and I am very open minded to the reception of ideas and beliefs that can be reasonably and logically proven because if your belief has no proof, then what you espouse is a paragon of dishonesty.

francis247:
Yes I have. Moreover, the proof is in the pudding. Have you seen an African movie or listened to an African music lately, most of them are an insult, a huge slight on the intellect to say the very least. And it's not always as if the people in charge of the production of these works of art are so intellectually lazy to come up with something more sophisticated, something totally different from what we've been seeing over the last two decades, but they unfortunately have to consider the majority and not the minority of their audience, they just can't handle it.


Before the West started buying slaves from Africa, they were doing so from Asia, particularly the western part of the continent. When their people began to die like flies as a result of the trade, majority of them rose up and resisted against the practice which led the Whites to beam their search light on a different part of the world, on people of a different race and they found Africa. Despite Africans dying like flies in the course of the trade, they barely rose up against it until a certain group of persons from the same west rose against it and fought for the termination of the trade. Colonialism and neocolonialism was and is still being vehemently resisted by the Asians. Today parts of the continent are also resisting western religion along with the menace that it brings. But in this part of the world, majority of the people are addicted to mental laziness. Most deride knowledge, research and scientific investigation more than they desire it, wanting to be led than lead. Most Africans are addicted to antediluvian ideas and beliefs, they're stuck on boot loop. It is no wonder the so called religious leaders, the pulpit bandits practically use their brains to mop the floor week in week out. It's sickening to say the very least. Majority of Africans are afraid, afraid of the yet to be known (which they'll never know as long as they continue to distance themselves from knowledge by shying away from research and study), the irrelevant and the unnecessary. The journey of a thousand years begins with a step. The average will rather sit around and look or simply move around in circles rather take a bold and brand new step every now and then. Look around you and the businesses ventured into by most Africans. Majority of Africans are mere distributors of partially of fully manufactured goods and services. We say the West and now the Asians have made Africa a dumping ground, but most of us have aided and abated their activities by our inactions more than our actions. This is the hard and saddening truth. It's not an insult but a statement of fact. Intellectually, Africans are weakest all major races worldwide. The proof is in the pudding. Given the mineral and natural resources this continent has, it should be the greatest in the world, religion or no religion, differences or no differences. They should be running to us and not the other way around. This world is what we made it. It's mainly about the people and less about the resources they were given, it's mainly about the workman and less about his tool. The average Westerner can dedicate his entire life to his carrier, searching for the cure to one disease or the other, trying to come up with one invention or the other, make breakthrough in a scientific project or advance a field of study that has been initiated. But to the average African, if one does not get married and have children, then that person has not lived. It takes great depth in intellectual strength and bravery to be not only completely open minded to the reception of new ideas, beliefs and and practices but also to go in search of them, whereas it takes just a little bit of physical strength to move in circles and reject changes, new ideas, beliefs and values all the while holding on to antiquity.

francis247:
There you again seeing the big picture but not seeing the bigger picture. The intellectual and psychological strength of the average Japanese and Chinese in comparison to that of the average African is not the same. These societies are filled with more persons of very sophisticated intellectual and psychological strength and prowess compared to the African society. This fact is made manifest not only in their inventions in natural and applied sciences for the material and immaterial advancement of their societies. The result of the clear mental and psychological superiority of the persons that inhabit these societies compared to that of the African society is also made manifest in their immaterial culture, arts, music, movies, language, value system, their innate ability to separate reason and rationality from emotions etc.

francis247:
The mentally and psychologically weak (with which the African continent is filled) has the propensity to hold on to religious dogmas in other to truly live and not just survive.

francis247:
Attempting to take religion from the average African is like attempting to take a bone from a dog, a candy from a child. It's bound to end badly. He/she just cannot handle it.
