sweetgala:
Wrong you may need to study the constitution again, only in the last 20 years has the order of chieftaincy become somewhat confusing with so many village chiefs.

What's a first class chief and what statutory role were assigned to them in the so-called last 20 years?

sweetgala:
Certain first class chief's enjoy recognition under state laws guiding land ownership patriomony marriage and royalties

you didn't say anything here. You're only being vague.

State your point clearly!

Nusaf:
The hand salute is very correct. State governors and first class chiefs are entitled to National Salute not to even talk of hand salute.

Is the military style salute a national salute?

State governors are the statutory chief security officers of their states, so at an official level , that puts all police in his state under him.

First class chiefs and traditional rulers are not recognised at any official capacity in Nigeria.

Concerned Nigerians are asking whether this is normal -talking of a senior police officer saluting a civilian/traditional monarch... This happened yesterday between a senior police officer and the Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II at his palace in Kano..While the policeman saluted the Emir, the monarch replied him with a handshake...

This has caused division online with some saying the police officer was wrong for saluting a civilian whose highest position held in the country -was the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) while others are saying the traditional office is a revered one hence anything is allowed....

What are your thoughts....

I think the military style salute is wrong. The only civilians to be recipient of that salute are the governors and their deputies as chief security officers of their respective states.

But then Nigerian military and para military have always been unprofessional.

Shym3xx:
Most of these women will end up single, wrinkled, bitter, and lonely when they get old. A lot of them are already all over Churches with no takers. And some are even travelling all over the globe looking/enquiring about where to find takers - but they are getting rejected like rashes.

But conversely, white women have become the most submissive and traditional women out there today...and they are winning. The cook, clean, and do everything women are meant to do and play their roles based on gender with grace.

I doubt any sensible guy would reject a beautiful Ivory queen with natural nice eyes and straight hair - for a belligerent excessive testosterone having black woman with bleached skin, roasted scalp, fake hair, and no edges who tries to imitate white women daily. Real men prefer natural women like white women - not bleached up chihuahuas with black arses loool.

Factually brutal!

I believe the term "troll" has been hijacked by "bully".

Get the original definition of troll and trolling and you will have a glimpse into the world in the deepest recesses of my being. Then you may graps every motive behind my online action.

Trolls are baiters, trolling is simply fishing with a bait. The art is a skilled and brainy one. However, I do understand contemporary observers have replaced trolling with bullying. It's sad and stiffles one of the creative aspects of internet...

Still rising.

Number 2 funny enough to whittle down its horrors.

Majority of religious women have sadly made their husbands to be in a contention with their churches.

It's a sad reality of the age.

The truth is the first victim of war! Do not give in to European journals of Africa's state of affairs during colonialism and slavery; Do not be a willing post-colonial slave of Western propaganda.

Adaeze003:
The ancestors be so nakedly wise they sold their relatives for dry gin...

Africans sold mainly slaves to Europeans as slaves. Slaves of rival communities and tribes from the spoils of war.

Besides, Africans enslaved up to 1.5 million white Europeans in the 14th-16th century in the Barbary slave trade

Adaeze003:
The ancestors be so nakedly wise they killed twins.

Only a smattering amount of our ancestors in Calabar did that! Our ancestors in Western Nigeria and beyond worshipped them! Besides did not majority of Europeans burn scientist and opinionated people alive at an institutional level? See ya life?

Adaeze003:
The ancestors be so nakedly wise they got cheated with their own scales.

And the West are so damn ingenious they invented the internet and social media and Yahoo boys are reaping them out in millions of Euros for decades now? Use your head.

Adaeze003:
The ancestors be so nakedly wise they killed people to bury one person.

You mean like the Pharos? Did not European kings do worse? Were not European kings who ordered and sanctioned the genocide of peoples in Native America, New Zealand, the aborigines of Australia, Congo, Ethiopia? Or the premeditated starvation to death of their own people in Ireland?

Adaeze003:
Everything they did was and is perfect... they after all walked beside their wooden gods... the only set of wise people to grace the earth... who are we in the face of dead men??

Your preconceived submissions are a sharp pointer to one who's a willing victim of mental and psychological defeatism.

Africans are a communal lot who never abandoned thier old parents or relations. Unlike the West where the government are forced to set up old people's home to look after aged folks whose sons and daughters are in the cities enjoying the Kaleidoscope of city vanity.

Folks die and are buried with strangers at funeral rites....damn!

Why don't you paint yourself with native chalk to be white....It's cheaper than the path you tread.

It's just the type that appeals to my personality most.

Quite frankly it has it's benefits and rewards.

But nothing replaces African traditional marriage. No matter how pared down or flamboyant.

We are a communal lot and our marriage system is part of our ingrained beingness.

Mindfulness:

And the funny thing is that any cultural practice MUST differ from any Western cultural practices, which makes Western cultural practices the yardstick after all.

What a paradox!

I want to see an American or a European say: "We have to do this and that so that we differ from Africans."

Mental slavery!

And the funniest thing of all is that Christianity was brought to these people by Westerners along with the gender roles and steeotypes which they are still clinging to.

At the emboldened, did you say Christianity/Westerners brought gender roles to Africa?

Princess of impulsive lies and dangerous premise!
