Say No to Tribalism

Fayose is only good at clearing the forest!

He cleared for Airport and we never saw a foundation and now he wants to clear for farming, I just hope we get to see weed grow on the cleared land.

I wonder what this guys achievement would be after 8 years in power. He definitely will
boast how he fed his people with rice and stipends and how he patronised every petty trader during his reign.

The Bottom-line remains that Ekiti has been stagnant and would be for the next 8 years,

Comedy! Someone that can revive Ekiti Rice mill is talking about allocating hectares for agriculture.

You are not in Ekiti and you are posting nonsense online.

If I say what's in my mind this morning, you will ban yourself from Nairaland for weeks.

Ayinke93:
I really pray and hope you find your lost religion. Its best we all live our lives like thiers God, so in the end we have nothing to lose afterall

How has he been able to defend the comment?

Shaw007:
maybe he is an atheist. what i'm not sure about is if he has always been one, i mean, what if he was a christian that lost faith in after some sort of crisis. an average atheist shouldn't be so interested in religion at al,l much less a particular one, unless he has history with that religion or faith. i might be wrong, but i don't think i am

He may not be an atheist like you say. I know some set of guys too who just drop out school, stopped going to church, start tackling pastors, churches and Christians. They claim not to be atheists and there was a particular time Seun said he has a religion outside Nairaland even though he recently denied it. All these make me doubt he is really an atheist. Even one of those guys recently work for me. I'll give more details later.

promise10:
Seun, I don't just know how your senses work, that you just started a thread so dumb as this.

Bro, are you saying that he is getting people in an emotional and psychological way via adrenaline?

Then back your thread with PRACTICAL Facts!

I will post another video here were music weren't played, yet people fall under the anointing.

If all these are emotional, why has no scientist or atheist able to do this and disprove our claims?

You thread lacks proof and as such is based on your INDIVIDUALISTIC opinion. Please how many atheistic scientists have tested this with your so-called emotional and psychological means and still got the same result?

Completely individualistic

Happy new year guys. Who won the pfp?

How will stopping the Mega party benefit Nigerians?
Instead of developing yourself politically and stop losing your ward you are making noise.



Happy New Year

This is going to be an interesting but tricky tie for Chelsea. Stoke are known for their heavy defending and frustrating style of play under Tony Pulis. But under Mark Hughes, they are playing more flowing footie football.

I think we will win this and Hazard will score. But not easily sha because teams are beginning to match up to Chelsea in the past five matches despite the results.

Looking forward to January to see the strength Conte will add to the side.

Well, paarde dey always change once game don start sha. So make we wait see.

For those that will be needing a link to follow the match by, you have more than an hour and half to search for one because you must not miss this match.

Na so una speak so tey Liverpool close eye flog the m'fu.ckers like weyrey

MarieSucre:
For just that part about encouraging different sections for christians and atheist, I'll support you. But if I may ask, why do you want to run for Mr Nairaland?

My strong point is to fight against and discourage Tribalism which is defacing Nairaland on daily basis.

LarryBeryl:
The development of the society starts from the household, mere citizens do not help matters too.

See Nairaland as a society too. If we bury Tribalism here on Nairaland, dont you think the outside Nigeria will be affected too?

onward4life:
Yes nice

Op just in case lemme drop my verse real quick! Am going in!!!!

Tribalism will continue to thrive profitably in Nigeria.
because some folks got jobs through it.
Majority of the officials appointed in this this current dispensation was because of their tribe region and Religion .

That's the new face of corruption if yu ask me!

Now let's take Nairaland for an example.

Now the ppo we called hausa,Ibos and yoruba are Actually some tribes too scared to mention their tribes online. And prefer to be Minority even online.

Dnt they have Bayelsa, Edo, Delta, Akwa ibom, Igalas, Beroms, Eggons etc with Smart Phones and Data. Yes there are.

But they come they take sides with tribal ethno religious bias. Some claiming they came from the North some say they came from the west. Laffing..

They all came to you because of Westernisation ooooo

Some usually ignite fight for the Yorubas and the Igbos to burn down.

They were suppose to be the Big brothers of the South. But see their life nah. No problem we they even Jolly tu day Self.

I could pick some important and valuable points in your contribution but majority of people believe that Tribalism cannot be conquered but as far as nairaland is concerned, i have won over 4 tribal cases.
Though i believe tribalism is an addiction which is difficult to stop but other people can counters these tribalists and discourage them from continous spread of this deadly disease then we will have a nairaland almost free of people seeing eachother as flat heads, afonjas, ipob etc.

Shaytan said “I am better than him, you created me out of fire and you created him (Adam) out of clay.” But now in Nigeria tribalism has become a force that is more powerful than nuclear bombs. Tribalism feeds terrorism. What is happening in Niger Delta or happened with OPC or Bakasi and Boko Haram is unfortunately an expression of a wider and deeper tribalism. The selection of public office holders that have plunged the country into darkness is a twin brother of tribalism in the government circle. In Nigeria, you will find people in high places dolling out contracts to inept contractors because of tribal affinity instead of genuine qualification.

As I write, Nigeria’s Presidency is “handed down” to people who do not even understand what Nigeria’s problems are, let alone knowing how to solve them all because they belong to privileged regions or tribes and I am not a believer that Government has the solution to all problems; a country should be like a mother to all its citizens, she must provide a level playing field for all so that those who work hard and play by the rules can be rewarded accordingly.

A country should not make some to work extra-ordinarily hard just to get by while some are virtually given the key to the government coffers to enrich themselves at will. This is one of the major reasons why Nigeria is yet to achieve a true “one Nigeria.” It was tribalism that indirectly engendered the Nigerian civil war and indirectly gives birth to the present evil called “quota system” and step brother called “state of origin.” These are direct product and consciously designed out of mediocrity to model the destruction of Nigeria. This fuelled the growth of National inequality and anger of perceived injustice. One of the unfortunate characteristics of tribalism is this unnecessary competition with other tribes. The Yoruba becomes “us” and the Igbo’s and Hausa becomes “them”. This in truth is what led to most of our problems and in turn it leads to the most evil of Nigeria traits – religious clashes. The belief in the superiority of one tribe and the weakness of others has led to various untold number of wars in Nigeria.

To prove superiority and to consider other tribes inferior is actually evil, as Islam teachers that all human beings are equal in the eyes of the Creator despite tribal differences. “Oh mankind We created you from a single (pair) of a male and female and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know each other (not that you may despise each other), verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is the most righteous of you” (Qur’an 49:13). The holy prophet (S.A.W) peace be upon him said “whoever calls for tribalism/nationalism is not of us”. Also, there is no doubt that the bible also made references to tribalism, when Apostle Paul wrote to the people of Corinth, warning them” if there is jealousy or rivalry or schism among you, are you not flesh and behaving according to the way of the flesh? Because when someone says, I am of Paul and another, I am of Apollo’s, are you not fleshly? Who is Paul and who is Apollo? They are servants through whom you believed. Let no one take pride in people for everything is yours, Paul, Apollo’s… but as you, you are of Christ and Christ is of God. “ (1 covinthans 3:3 – 5, 21 – 22, 23).

Unfortunately we all know that many people from around the world most especially in Nigeria, use tribe for the wrong reasons thus tribalism becomes a dangerous disease in our father land, Nigeria.

Due to this reasons, I think it is time for us to accept that responsibility to other tribes, this is being used. We all have common destiny whether from the north, the south, the east or the west. The realization to the fact that we are all victims of economic imperialism and foreign vested interests should prompt and persuade us to educate ourselves by all means of the need for oneness of Nigeria, and realize that geography is no barrier to national cooperation and mutual understanding.

We are all Nigerians. Long live Nigeria. Long live people of Nigeria.

If there was a drug dealing course in the university, trust the biafrans to top the class. First class all the way.

Why not set up a university and start a course like that?

The unfortunate reality staring us in the face is that we are unitedly divided and dividedly united. Call it a forced marriage made possible by lord Lugard and his wife on Lugard’s love bed decades ago. This forced espousal has led to a daily painful intercourse with strange bed fellows. And just like King Solomon may attest that anything (maybe not everything) could be possible under the intoxication of savoured feminine passion.

In the face of this quagmire, we can only identify one root cause of our national woes. Tribalism! We (Nigerians) are a cacophony of tribal singers! In a country with about 170 million people and more than 600 different ethnic groups, it has been impossible for us as a people to present a united front.

Tribalism means man supporting his people to who he belongs whether they are right or wrong, oppressing or oppressed; belonging to this group can be due to kith and kin, ethnicity, color, birth place, citizenship, school of thought, or a group of people with common interests.

Tribalism is the feeling of being better than others, and that others are of lower class. Like in George Orwell’s Animal Farm, where we are exposed to the thought that all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others. So, that person that has this feeling of tribalism thinks so highly of himself and of those to whom he belongs. This is not to say that such feeling of brotherhood is totally off base. Not at all. But where such fraternity becomes detrimental to unity of the whole, then it becomes corrupt.
In Nigeria, tribalism has become a force that is more ascendant than nuclear bombs. The emergence of Boko Haram in our present day society is rooted in it. Militancy in the Niger Delta is informed by tribal sentiments, the same with the OPC and Bakassi. Tribalism nourishes terrorism. We don’t need to look far, that is the root.

The selection of public office holders that have plunged the country into darkness is a twin brother of tribalism in the government circle. In Nigeria, you will find people in high places dolling out contracts to inept contractors because of tribal affinity instead of genuine qualification and competence. The present administration at some point had to face the problem of ‘how can a minority group rule over us?’ ( Note: them, us)

A country should not make some to work extra-ordinarily hard just to get by while some are virtually given the key to the government coffers to enrich themselves at will in the name of ‘we are born to rule’. This is one of the major reasons why Nigeria is yet to achieve a true “one Nigeria.”

It was tribalism that indirectly engendered the Nigerian civil war and indirectly gives birth to the present evil called “quota system” and step brother called “state of origin.” These are direct products, consciously or unconsciously designed out of mediocrity to model the ruin of Nigeria. This fuelled the growth of National inequality and anger of perceived injustice. One of the unfortunate characteristics of tribalism is this unnecessary competition with other tribes.

The Yoruba becomes “us” and the Igbo’s and Hausa become “them”. The North says power must return to the region as if any tribe has a sole right to occupy the Nigerian seat of power. A Niger Deltan is elected and hell is let loose because he is not from ‘our region’.

This in truth is what led to most of our problems and in turn it leads to the most evil of Nigeria traits – religious clashes and most recently terrorism.

The belief in the superiority of one tribe and the weakness of others has led to various untold number of wars in Nigeria.
To prove superiority and to consider other tribes as low-grades is actually wicked. The Igbo man is equal to the Northerner and a Yoruba man is equal to both. That is who we are, people of equal rights and status.

If the Boko Haram insurgence must come to an end, if ethnic clashes must be eradicated from amongst us and if Nigeria must progress beyond what we see, we must deliberately toll the path of being our brothers’ keepers. First by realizing that we are brothers. That is if such realization will ever exist. We must move from this thwarted thought line of enthroning evil by our actions and inactions.

We all have a common destiny whether from the north, the south, the east or the west. So it seems. The realization of the fact that we are all victims of economic imperialism and foreign vested interests should prompt and persuade us to educate ourselves by all means of the need for oneness of Nigeria, and realize that geography is no barrier to national cooperation and mutual understanding.

Only in this can we successfully bring to an end the evil of terrorism, militancy, ethnic and religious hostilities.
We are all Nigerians.

I also heard that each time you call someone Ipod that your bank account balance grow by 50%
how true?

b0rn2fuck:
These terrorist might have been decamped from sambissa forest but they are regrouping somewhere to at least show a sign that they are still relevant, they have terrorisms in their blood, boko haram over or not might unlikely to be stronger than before, you cannot monitored the whole environment if the environment themselves fail to provide vital information to assist the nigeria army, they could even be in one of the prominent northerner compound holding meeting. May God saves Nigeria and our army.

Mods pls why can't I comment on some people's diaries? Anytime I try to comment it says I don't have the "required permission". I checked my profile to see if I was banned but I wasn't. Or is this some sort of shadow ban like is on reddit? Forgive me for putting this complaint. I did not know of any other avenue to reach you guys. I would be ecstatic if I get a feedback soonest. Thanks.

Next time you have a complain, simply go to the section and mail the mods or mail the supermods on the general section, their responses are usually swift.
Hope it helps?

It is just a dream. It probably reflects things that your mum has been thinking about recently. She should savor it and then forget about it.

It is until you are being flogged in the dream and u see the marks in real world before you believe.

I am certainly an atheist off Nairaland. I don't attend church or pray. When I read the Bible, it's just for personal entertainment and debates.

Only if you have deleted the post but even if it takes a year, i'll show the whole NL where you said outside NL you have a religion but u are an atheist on NL.

Did you forget the APC is a mega party that hijacked power from the incompetent Jonathan?
Maybe by 2019 you will realise that Nigerians are not interested in stories but action.
