macof: oh shut up you dumb slowpoke. a simple question you failed to answer
what has this got to do with killing humans for rituals? you are really foolish to bring that up, as Yoruba tradition has nothing to do with that
answer my question or accept ur status as a dimwitted maggot. ... how does a man kneeling down before his King affect your life? What you call others mean nothing as long as they aren't it. What you are is what is important. There are threads in Nairaland where you have defended oro ritual murder - that is what you are. And that is what is important. As for your question, I already answered it - it worries me there are still people like you who see nothing wrong with the picture above and with ritual murder. It makes me feel bad that some of my people are still so backward. That is how it affects me. So the next time you sneak out at night with your fellow cultists to kill people to sacrifice to your oro deity, stop and think - you owe it to yourself and your future generations to leave the world a better place than you met it instead of perpetuating anachronism. You can do it, macof. It may seem hard, but nothing is impossible. Traditionalists stopped killing twins in Calabar - they realised the gods commanded no such thing. The Catholics stopped fighting science - God didn't send them. All that's left to fix the world of religion is for Salafists to stop bombing people in the name of jihad and for macof and co to stop killing people for oro in the mistaken belief that our gods commanded it. Go on, macof! |

Go back to history and learn more. I have a lot of Benin friends, and most of them have their Yoruba names. Take a chill pill. That was a jocular response I made to your post and I wasn't looking for an argument with you. You don't even know what you're talking about - you combative ignorance gives that much away.

Well, I'm sure you didn't. Are you not the caveman who said it is OK to murder people for rituals? Putting on clothes and using a phone and pretending to be civilised doesn't make you civilised.

dicefrost: Highly unnecessary. 8 years is more than enough to study medicine, 4 years in basic medical science and 4 years in medicine. The problem with medical training in Nigeria is not the length of time, but the facilities and infrastructure. I known a school where anatomy students have never seen a cadaver There is nothing to add to what you have written. It's Nigerian approach to problems - often poorly thought out and wanting to be seen to be tackling a problem without really doing what should be done to tackle it. |

So we have individual differences if you feel your culture is inferior because of their practices you can change your identity buh thinking your view will change anything about that is what you should erase Yes, a man texting on his knees is an inferior, backward culture.

hardisha81: ...u are a Nigeria, who has one or other traditional and cultural trait backed with an historical background , why feigning nd abuse d custom? Yes, I'm African and Nigerian. But I don't subscribe to a tradition where someone kneels down because the king is on the throne. Kneeling down to greet, I accept as tradition, but this is something else. If I ask you for pictures of someone kneeling and texting before Queen Elizabeth, I'm sure you will remind me I'm African, as if that's a license for backwardness. What is bad is bad and has no culture or colour. If this king offers me a title I would point him to this picture and explain that one who believes in the fair and dignified treatment of all I cannot be seen to be backing that institution. |

Fortunately for her, her man choose to stand by her, give her a chance. I hope she don't disappoint him and everyone that believe in her.
I wish them a blissful marriage. Long live the Queen and King!!! So says one of the wisest women in Nairaland and one of the Nairalanders I respect most. I share some of your sentiments but there are things that can't be glossed over. If it's true she has a subsisting marriage, that's no "past" or teenage indiscretion - the king would have made a horrendous mistake.

Bevista: TBH, I am now convinced beyond reasonable doubt that Nigeria's problems is beyond leadership, but a societal one. Are we just intellectually deficient or chronically prejudiced. --- This was an interview where the Minister was specifically asked about the exchange rate situation. He tried to explain the factors that influence the rate making reference to oil price. He simply said the SITUATION (exchange rate) was beyond the president since he does not control oil price. He never said the ECONOMY was beyond the President’s control as misrepresented by the media. --- How the media gets away with such mischief is beyond me. Worse still is the fact that 80% of readers do not even notice this distortion of facts. These are people that will later assume leadership positions. With such shallowness among citizens, the future is even more uncertain. Very shallow. You got it spot on. |
