Sapasenator:
Must you worship anything? I don't get the compulsive need to worship. As humans, we have come a long way and we are god.
I never mentioned the word worship.

African religion is not about worship. It’s a different type of relationship that we have with God and the deities, it’s not worship.

You know nothing. If you did any research, you should have known that England were worshipping other gods before Christianity came to them.
That’s irrelevant. Christianity in Nigeria was a British imposition.

Your family must have a god or deity they follow before the accepting Islam or Christianity. You need to go back home and inquire. A clue may also be in your surname or even middle name. One of my middle names has Ifa***** as an example so I know, even though my family has been Christians since the 1920s or thereabouts.
My brother, I asked my family before, and they were looking at me as if I was not okay.

They are too far gone in the church stuff.

Amadioha is just one deity. Your ancestors worshipped Chukwu Okike. You make supplications to other deities for specific purposes.

If you need Justice, you call on Amadioha
If you need bountiful harvest, you call on Njoku or Ala
If you need healing, you call on Ogwugwu etc
Thank you my brother. 🙏

What is the most effective way to call on these powers?

Is it by prayer?

Incantations?

Should I sacrifice a hen?

You have done research on Bible but you have not done on your amadioha.

You are the one brainwashing yourself.
Don’t be ridiculous.

We were all raised to be christians, so of course I know more about christianity than Amadioha.

But I’m looking to extend my knowledge beyond the British religious imposition.

I wonder what you mean by "credibility of the Bible and Koran".

Are you aware that Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart is a fabrication, which could be classed as lies and deceit that you can learn from?
Chinua Achebe was certainly a legendary writer, but I don’t recall him making a claim in Things Fall Apart that he was speaking on behalf of the Almighty, or promising eternal torture in a furnace for those who failed to read his book.

That's why I said read them yourself instead of believing what you've been told.
What makes you think I haven’t read the bible?

I probably knew every verse before you were born.

You might learn the wisdom of using your own senses like Eve did instead of the ignorance of Adam which kept him in naked ignorant slavery
And you believe the story of ‘Adam and Eve’ because……?

Do you have a single shred of evidence of their existence?

You can’t even prove the existence of ‘Jesus’, never mind ‘Adam and Eve’.

Are you aware that by scientific consensus the first modern humans arose in East Africa over 200,000 years ago?

In fact a paint factory was discovered in South Africa recently, complete with evidence of chemical admixture and deep knowledge of chemistry, and was carbon-dated to 100,000 years old.

Google “paint factory discovered in South Africa” to confirm the reports.

HOW DOES THAT SQUARE WITH YOUR ROMAN STORY OF “Adam and Eve”, dated to 6,000 years ago?

Maybe Adam and Eve were the first Europeans, not the first humans.

We know the white race only emerged about 6 or 7,000 years ago. So maybe your ‘Adam’ was the first oyinbo or the first albino.

NOT the first man.

and you might see through the lie of humans being created from mud instead of in the image of their gods too, which would make you master of yourself instead of a slave seeking a master.

It should at least make you less swift to insult.
I seek no master.

I seek knowledge and truth.

Basically, you now want "you guys" or a "traditional priest" to brainwash you instead?

Pity you haven't decided to wash your own brain yourself. If you did, you'd not "follow" and might end up directing yourself at least.

My suggestion is, read the books (Bible and Quran to start with), yourself instead of going to church to stare at a white face.
Unlike you insolent twerp, I’ve actually done research into the credibility of the bible and Koran, and they are very dodgy indeed, and inundated with fabrications, lies and deceit.

So you can stuff that fake bomboclat up your colonial mentality behind.

Any ideas please?

I’m sick of going to church and seeing that white man face staring at me.

I don’t believe that God is white and that He has a white son that I’m supposed to worship.

I REFUSE to be brainwashed by the British.

Can any of you guys recommend a good traditional deity to follow, please?

Or if not, a good traditional priest who can direct me accordingly.

Much appreciated. undecided
Politics › Re: 'I no longer have confidence in Peter Obi': Kenneth Okonkwo dumps Labour Party by Kushites: 1:47pm On Jul 28, 2024
Streetinvestor2:
It is obvious Nigerians don't read.If most people who made comments did read the open letter. They would understand better. Ken made it clear that Apc and pdp is nigeria problems and not an option. His problem is that obi is too gentle for his liking. He wants someone who can defend his mandate no matter what.The only way obi could have done that is call for revolution or protest which he is happy that is about to happen. He is equally not happy that obi is playing by the law with labour party problems. He believes the kingdom suffers violence and the violent takes it with force.
Finally I am 100% in support of his decision..obi is too gentle to a fault. It cannot work in nigeria
You have a very strange reading of that letter.

The thrust of the letter is that Obi is a lying hypocrite, not that he is “too gentle” or whatever nonsense you wrote.
Politics › Re: 'I no longer have confidence in Peter Obi': Kenneth Okonkwo dumps Labour Party by Kushites: 1:38pm On Jul 28, 2024
raskymonojendor:
Summary: Peter Obi lacks leadership skills, and he (Kenneth Okonkwo) has NO confidence in him (Peter Obi) to build a party that can wrestle power from APC or PDP.
Obi never was a socialist-minded politician. He’s a pure PDP capitalist, and his association with Labour was just a political ploy to achieve power by pretending to be a populist socialist. That’s why he’s always averse to actually walking the walk in terms of leading and building the Labour party.

It’s not his ideology.

He and Labour are strange bedfellows.

Was it not Obi that declared that ‘schools are not for the poor’ when he was Anambra governor?

A man that refused to pay his state doctors for a whole year?

Dey play.

75% of those problems would be solved by restructuring along ethnic lines

Let each ethnic nations control their resources and become a federating unit
The ones too small look for who to merge with in a unique binding agreements they are comfortable with

Do that 75% of those problems would disappear
What ''unique binding agreement''?

Any yeye agreement can easily be ignored by the dominant ethnicity.

The truth is that dividing the country will lead you nowhere.

You'll just be multiplying your problems.

Creating 10 NIGERIAS instead of one.

The EXACT SAME PROBLEMS you have in NIGERIA, you will have in your new republic.

The problem of majority ethnic groups dominating the political space to the annoyance of smaller groups.

Nigeria has over 300 ethnic groups.

So assuming the 'big 3' separate and we have 3 new countries, each of them will carry an average of 100 smaller ethnic groups!!!!!

That's another Nigeria!

It might even be worse!!!

So, the solution in my view is internal restructuring of the federation, however long it takes to accomplish it.

We just need to keep pushing for it.

16 reasons why the giant of Africa may never get it right in the next 1000 years.

Majority of the people are one, several, or all of:

1. Too poor to think for themselves
2. Too tribalistic to be objective
3. Too religious to be objective
4. Too impressionable to be self willed
5. Too docile to be decisive
6. Too complacent to be proactive
7. Too dependent to be self respecting
8. Too corrupt and corruptible to be independent-minded
9. Too timid to be strong
10. Too cowardly to be reactive
11. Too short-sighted to see a meter ahead of them.
12. Too prayerful to not understand the concept of workless prayer
13. Too shallow-minded to realize the deep hole they are in.
14. Too ignorant to to know to ask the right questions.
15. Too in the past to be in the present.
16. Too in the present to be futuristic.
It is the same in every country on Earth.

The average person has all sorts of issues.

Change only happens when the ruling class realises it is in their interest for change to occur.

In Europe, it was all aristocracy eating their money until decades of civil society activism compelled them to spread the wealth to wider society.

Politics › Re: A Protest Against “Bad Governance” Is A Protest Against Nothing by Kushites(op): 5:35pm On Jul 27, 2024
Medipharm:
See you.
What has this government not raised?
They have raised even the Tax you referred to.
They have raised price of petroleum products.
They have raised Electricity bills
The have raised cost of food stuffs
They have raised cost of clearing goods at the ports
They have raised inflation rate.
They have raised the Exchange rates of dollars to Naira.
They are still raising the cost of governance instead of cutting it down.
They have insecurities everywhere.
All these amount to bad governance.
What else do want? For the citizens to start dying before it is called bad governance?

Meanwhile, you should preach a peaceful protest not this. Nigerians have all the right to protest for what they deem unfit for the citizens. Stop tribalizing this protest.
If you begging for them not to protest for a reason it's different thing but to them not to protest and make it a tribal thing you falled that one
Mr Man, there is inflation all over the world. It’s not only in Nigeria. Everywhere prices of everything have risen, since the end of ‘covid’.

So giving us itemised list of risen prices is pointless.

Mr Perfect. The same politicians you supported had promised the same measures, specifically removal of subsidies, that have worsened inflation.

So MANY OF YOU are protesting for political and ethnic reasons, and are HYPOCRITES.

If your preferred leader was in power, YOU would NOT be protesting, and would be attacking others for refusing to give him time to fix the country.

SO THERE IS A LOT OF HYPOCRISY, TWO-FACEDNESS, AND OPPORTUNISM in these scheduled protests.

That is why there is no unity of purpose.
Politics › A Protest Against “Bad Governance” Is A Protest Against Nothing by Kushites(op): 5:09pm On Jul 27, 2024
The Kenyan protests were against specific stuff.

They were rejecting their govt raising taxes.

That was what united the protesters.

Nigeria’s protest is about WHAT, exactly?

“Bad governance”.

What the flying fck is that?

The problem with such ambiguous, nebulous, generalised grievance is that it is susceptible to interpretation depending on one’s financial status, economic ideology, ethnicity, etc.

So if you are from the regions who overwhelmingly voted for the current regime, you would be more inclined to give them more time to implement their agenda.

If you are from other regions, you would be less inclined to be patient, and be ready to hit the streets, while denouncing the govt as useless etc.

So you need a SPECIFIC grievance that everyone can relate to. Say inflation.

Or kidnapping.

Or power supply.

Until you become more FOCUSED, and concentrate on the single most pressing issue at any given time, you will not be united enough to hold nationwide demonstrations.

It certainly won’t be widespread as occurred in Kenya.

But good luck. 🤞
Politics › Re: Why 'go And Protest In Your Region' Argument Makes No Sense. by Kushites: 4:51pm On Jul 27, 2024
Iamgrey5:
While go and protest in your region makes a lot of sense.

Despite our travels and inter marriage as Nigerians, every region in Nigeria is still about 70% indigenous, going up to 90% indigenous in some cases.

So it will be unfair for people from other regions to cause problems or civil disturbance for nearly 70% of people who are not particularly interested in the protest.

If it's protest about the federal government, I will support you go to Abuja and create enough problems for them their.


N
Thank you.

One thing many of these guys forget is that Lagos is not the capital of Nigeria.

If you want to protest, go to the nation’s capital and protest.

Or you can even go to your village and protest from there.
