I beg make she go who she help

Pyrrho:
I can't make any sense of the entire post.

Is it just me?

macof:
I'm sorry but your earlier post seemed rather ridiculous and too quick to condemn african monarchy.. accept my apology

you didn't make all this clear initially.

let's look at it this way...
Nigeria is multi ethnic, that means multiple (sometimes conflicting) traditions
Nigeria has two very dogmatic religions
Nigeria was not the idea of Nigerians but the British, we are still trying to cope with the arrangement. we had our own laws and constitutions before Nigeria was created


so we in the west cannot just ignore our monarchs, the Muslim north cannot just eliminate sharia or their emirs

so however ridiculous you think the system is its because Nigeria itself is ridiculous. .. you wonder why not a single sector is impressive in this country

asala1:
Yea, you made some point that I agree with.

There is the need for evolution of our culture with time. Most of what we have today as our culture is the accumulation experiences from the past and this experiences changes with time, and so should our culture evolve.

Just like a saying in my mother tongue "The wisdom of today is the madness of tomorrow", so my recognizes and accommodates change. However, I believe the fundamentals of our culture like the traditional kingship would forever be in place and be cherished.

1) I haven't seen where anyone was killed due to "oro". You can enlighten me on that.

2) You blame female inequality on our culture? Female inequality is everywhere in the world even in the developed countries. Have you heard of "equal pay day" where it takes a woman with same qualification 16 months (April 12th of the following year) in the U.S to earn the same salary a man earns in 12 months. I personally believe equity should be the right word and not equality, that's a different argument.

3) We are different even from the root. The problem is trying to made different people reason like one, that hasn't work and won't work. The best thing is to understand that we are different and we should respect that.

hoodmenconcept:
if traditional rulership should be scrap then your family background should be scrap too how about that
well, i don't blame you cos you don't know the value of tradition and culture.
shame... sorry to say, if you r a yoruba den u r a pure disgrace to the yorubaland.

hahn:
Let's discuss without the insults please. It is rather childish.

Here is my point, apparently people seem to be misinterpreting my comment, if we are going to have a democracy let it be a democracy. Not a democracy, with a little bit of monarchy and sharia. If we are going to practice monarchy, let it be strictly a monarchy. And if with a monarchy, let it be one devoid of ritualistic practices and one with the sole aim of uniting Africa

That is my point.

Ranks007:
GOD preferably God not the way you put it.



The Only True Wise God....maximum respect to the Supreme Commander of the Universe...His Supremacy exceeds all mortals had been and will ever be...What a Being He is... That lives only in your imagination

Guy. Na salary I dey earn. I love my job but it's also killing. By Thursday am on auto pilot just waiting for the weekend.

I need the rest. My own pass 8-4 work.

Who knows maybe I even work for you sef. We hate you and our jobs lol

macof:
is that constitution you like so much helping you? btw traditional rulers are part of the law and order of Nigeria. ..it's very constitutional

macof:
waoh! I never knew you were this dumb

1. democracy is archaic too. it's history goes back to at least 500BC

2. democracy hasn't ensured gender equality in any country. .. if you think otherwise mention one and state how democracy has enforced gender equality

3. now you just talking nonsense. ritual killings got nothing to do with monarchies or culture. as far as I know mad scientists in the west perform crazy rituals as they experiment on humans and animals ...all before modern standards were set

-----
with African monarchy you have a rich heritage still preserved, you have greater communication and understanding between the people and the leaders, you sell your culture to the world etc


point out how democracy has benefited any one kilometer of the African continent

tonytony208:
....but the queen of england must be retained in England, abi? Your reasoning is upside down, like that of a man, who has studied his brain up his assess.

asala1:
Our culture is number one, that's who we are. We know the history and we know why the colonialist took power away from our traditional rulers. Democracy is imported and foreign. How has democracy helped us in any way? The democracy we don't even understand, 80% of our constitution was written by the Brits. We are just coping people blindly and that why we are where we are. I believe if the traditional rulers are given constituted power to to govern people in their locality and execute projects, we will have better system than what we have now.

There is need for Africans to understand themselves and to know where they are coming from, without this poverty and underdevelopment shall forever abide in their mist. There is a say in my mother tongue which says "A slave of the king who believe he is a member of the king's family is deluded"

It's only legislators and ASO Rock workers that love their jobs.

It's a Sunday. They better declare monday make man siddon for house. No need to burn fuel going to work.

temitemi1:
Propaganda week indeed.

supaman04:
perhaps you should corroborate your point with reason(s)

asala1:
What do you mean by archaic belief? If you believe your culture is an archaic belief then you are completely irredeemable. How do kingship promotes gender inequality, ritualistic killings and ignorance? How has democracy which has cost this nation billions of dollars through embezzlement by politicians benefited Nigeria? I will rather have a king who communicates with his people everyday than have a politician who is only interested stealing.

asala1:
This should be in the top 2 most stupid comments I have seen in this decade.

Uramzi:
kingship no dey yhur lineage. Take d pain like "mmmm". E dey ma own so dem no go scrape am. kingship no dey yhur lineage. Take d pain like "mmmm". E dey ma own so dem no go scrape am.

Nellybii:
Yes that's as far as you are concerned.
Unfortunately you are a just a moniker here.
This is the most myopic comment I have read lately. SMH. Your type complain about everything either it is relevant or not.

reverendfather:
who or what is responsible for all these royal families upkeep? I hope its not the government

mazazatonda:
Brothers and Sisters,it used to baffle me and i keep on thinking over this often and often why most high level secret cult members(not university cult),i mean powerful cult members that do rituals,sacrifice,etc all in the name of being rich and wealthy and commanding the society and some of the real born again christians in the church with their occult power will most often be a dedicated church member who many can swear that they are born again and you can hardly believe that he or she is an occult member.In most cases,they are the ones they says what happens in the church and the society.And this set of people will keep on shouting most of all these christian terminologies like,....blood of Jesus,it is well,God bless you my brother or my sister,God is good etc.I am not talking from guess work,i am talking with facts.Even most of the activities in the church,many of them sponsor it and majority will be well known in the church and also closer to the men of God.Does it mean those men of God don't know and cannot know that those people are in occult?
My people,i am always shocked and surprised and i begin to ask myself many questions-does it mean that God welcome Occult people?,how would they be serving God and serving Devil,even using human being to perform sacrifice and yet things will still be working perfectly for them??,does it mean that God doesn't care about what they are doing even though they are still shouting his name and worshiping him??.How can this combination be going on?, does it mean that one of the characteristics of being a secret cult member and making it work for you is that you must not only be active in church but should also ensure that you are shouting all these christian terminologies for it to work?.deceiving people by combining power of darkness with power of light,yet it is still working even at occupying highest position in the church and being recognised?.I believe such will also be happening in muslim,but i am not a muslim so i dont know much about them.Please my question is why is it that many secret cult people attend churches most and at the same time are the one that calls Lord's name most,yet things are working for them,is it a tradition or condition to be an occult member?.I dont understand the whole thing and it baffles me and need an explanation.

Stevebamdex:
You will soon be consumed by fire,if you don't repent quickly..infact,I don't see you last long if you continue treading on this destructive path..

JackBizzle:
I am ready to quit my job to start a church.....I just need some investors.


Yes, I am an atheist but I need the money. Church is all about the money.

Now, you might be thinking....wait, isn't this Jackbizzle guy an atheist? Well, yes. But Many of your pastors and priests are atheists- they lost faith in religion and they only see it as a money making scheme.

I'm already used to pretending to be a christian! I go to church to please friends and family. I even make prayers at large occasions. I am also good at giving convincing speeches.

Although sha, I don't have patience or the heartlessness to stage fake miracles. That one is off the books.



So, please, let's start sowing seeds.

The bidding sowing starts at N1,000,000 per person minimum.

Please, God loves a cheerful giver
