PoliticsRe: The Unilag Rape Case - I Think It Was Consensual - My Opinion by Max24: 3:38pm On Aug 09, 2015
OrlandoOwoh:
Establishing a case of rape has proven to be difficult worldwide. Though väginal penetration alone can kick start a case of alleged rape, the victim should be able to prove that in the cause of resisting the rapist, her cloths got torn and she sustained bruises. This is important because after a girl gives consent to a man to have sèx with her, she can turn around to claim she was raped.
What if she didnt resist because she feared for her life. This is an 18yrs old girl. A lecturer that have cultist boys can be a terror to a young girl. Even at school many boys use their membership of cult groups to rape colleague older girls not to talk of lecturer versus jambite. Havent u heard of situations where a rapist will command a girl to UnCloth herself, rape her and then ask her to put on the clothes afterwards using some coercive means. In such cases no torn clothes, so does it absolve d rapist of d crime? Many girls have been killed inadvertently in d process of resisting rapers. I said inadvertently because murder might not be part of d rapers initial plan. Pls, a raper has no excuse!!!

These aren't words that deform your character are they?
You called my ancestors ignorant and you stil expect me to respect you?
You think am on nairaland to make friends and make you happy? I don't need to hide my honest opinion of you. .
Only a foolish slowpoke insults his African ancestors and demonize everything African - this you did, so a foolish slowpoke you are...you obviously don't know anything about tradition or history ...you just blindly attack. ..you call the ancestors ignorant but you are the ignorant one here.

Even if you aren't yoruba and don't have anything like Oro in ur ethnicity.(that is if you know anything about about your ethnicity) best you respect the traditions of others. ..I will never insult a traditional practice, I respect all people of the world and surely whatever they do fits them. ..they don't need anybody to tell them how to live.

You are far too beneath me to dabble into a debate with you. ..I'm schooling you here...this is no debate.

Surely my children will be well educated and grounded in their cultures and traditions ...they will know themselves and embrace their identity. ..I am not one to teach people how to slave to others. .. I teach love in ethnic identity and appreciation for your culture.
You being a teacher only proves the terrible educational system in this country. .. an African man teaching his pupils to imitate the west and hate their African identity. ..you should be ashamed of yourself. ..teachers like you destroy the future of our continent

More stupid comments...how can you blame African traditional means for your problems? Boko haram was caused first of all by foreign ideas of islam. ..the Nigerian government doesn't employ traditional means. ..so why blame traditional means when you are yet to use them? See why I say you are dumb? Is this the type of logic you teach your pupils in school?

Listen Oro doesn't kill anybody. ..at least nothing will happen to you if you simply obey the law and stay indoors at night when the Oro is carried around town. ..if you wish to dare come out and whatever you see you have to bare it cus you were warned
You are truly beyond redemption like someone said earlier. Even a primary school child at Corona will be shocked at d silliness of ur arguments. I think Nigerian youths are far more intelligent than this. Kontinu alone in ur fools paradise where Yoruba gods and goddesses are d worlds superpowers over America and Russia!!!

How does this make sense to you? What kind of fools do we have in this country? I weep for the future Cus it seems it can only get worse with [b]morons[/b] like you procreating, I pity your children

My ancestors were overly intelligent men who made full us of their resources to attain their desires and needs. .they weren't ignorant but knowledgeable. . Its ur father. ..who failed to ground you on the values of the people of this continent. ..ur ethnicity and more who is ignorant.

Clearly you are so[b] stuupid[/b] that you don't even know what "Education" means
They didn't know it was wrong, we know nowhuh Please did your drop you on your head? What sort of rubbish is this? Who Determines what is wrong or right? Westerners? Look at yourself. ..a dumb lost fellow doesn't even know his ancestors were educated. ..educated enough to study and practice medicine, astronomy, Zoology, develop numerals, engage in mining, Metallurgy etc.

Change doesn't mean dumping ur identity and seeking to be like Caucasians[b] you fool. [/b] Please use ur head
See evidence of my arguments? All the emboldened above shows d type and quality of education given to you by "your parents." Instead of having an healthy and enlightening debate you resort to throwing abuses. My concern is d quality of thinking d children you raise will have if and when you av any. I am deliberately engaging you this far for few reasons - 1. am a teacher 2. some of d rubbish you are writing here can have a negative impact on some kids. I hope u know that being able to read and write is not tantamount to being educated. It has to do also with ur mindset. Any society that wants to dominate must allow for open debate and strong self-critique of its practices, culture and traditions. Do you know d main reasons d white succeeded in using our forefathers as slaves - it is simply because of ur type of thinking? They made mockery of ur long held beliefs and outlandish traditions that never brought any significant advantage to u. For example, you worship Sango since time immemorial yet till date he can not make you a world superpower. Just last week Buhari had to go to America to beg for its assistance in buying their weapons to fight Boko Haram. and yet people like you will claim we av all d most powerful gods in the world - the god of thunder,iron,rivers,war and so on. Since d Boko Haram war started why havent you voluntered to use d powers of ur gods fight BH.Why not constitute a panel of the Oworos, Oluwos, Are Ona Kakanfos, Baloguns, Apenas and other warior title-holders and lead them to the Sambisa for us? At least by now u would have been a world re-known hero! Imagine America and Russia being on their kneels begging to buy ur powers!! grin This would av helped us out of the Naira/oil mess we find ourselves now.As to having a unique identity, so killing women and strangers is an identity to be proud of - are u kidding me ? I have not asked u to drop your cultural way of dressing,greeting,training offspring-no,by no means. My point is a cultural practice such as oro that targets d most vulnerable in d society such as women and strangers, to make human sacrifice in d dead of d night to gods or spirits that have never helped u fight BH is not only barbaric but despicable. And all these barbaric practices must be stopped!!!

You speak of education. have you really gained education? Do you know your identity? Are you grounded in the values of your people?
You think education is just about western culture don't you?

I believe oro practitioners make it easy by announcing the fest and giving warning ..if you are hard headed that's a pity ....I wouldn't want to know what happens to you
Keep deceiving yourself in ur barbaric traditions. Am sure if our forefathers can speak from their graves now they would have told you how ashamed they are of their olden -day practices due to ignorance. While i can forgive them because of their lack of education, we of this generation dont have any excuse if we continue in their flawed practices. It has nothing to do with culture, they simply did know it was wrong but we know now. Change is the only thing that is constant and we are the agents of that change. We are no more barbarians.

Are women barred from observing gun salutes or done in the dead of d night like Oro is done? Does it entail using women or strangers for human sacrifice like Oro? Even primary school children in UK know that u dont compare apples with stones - it only happens with some of us that dont know d true application of education. Upon all ur education!!!

The Husband of Toyin himself(Bukola) didn't go with the wife cos he couldn't have left his legislative duty for that. And u still see nothing wrong in what Dino and co did. SMH again

You and I know Bukola could have if it was necessary. Ekweremadu, his assistant is always there to lead the house in times like that.
What do u expect Dino to do? My bro, Dino must chop. And it has paid off for him. I heard Saraki has made him a committee chairman. The people u should blame are Nigerians who allow such incongruous elements in our political space.

Ngo was an accomplice in looting Nigeria dry.
Where were u when Ngozi was shouting and telling them not to share all monies buy save for d rainy day? Even the money put into the SWF is there today courtesy of Ngozi. All d governors led by Ameachi called her all sorts of names and even went to Supreme court so that they can share d money in SWF. They and Atiku gave her d name 'Voodoo economist" simply because she wanted d right thing done. Thanks to her now, the FG can pay its workers while the States cant pay theirs.

[size=13pt]What do you make of this statement?

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson

Actually, human sacrifice is one of the evil that Satan himself invented. Some people who seek power feel they must shed human blood, it's all over the world not restricted to Africa. Others are only discreet about it.

Be that as it may, preservation of African culture should exclude human sacrifices. It is a satanic practice. The land will not be cleansed by human blood, the land will be ACURSED.

The revered Awujale of Ijebuland has been at the forefront of campaign to discourage ancient traditional practices that have no benefit to the society, he has made giant strides in that regard. May God bless him.. Other monarchs should join him in the task of ridding Yorubaland of these practices wherever they are still being observed. [/size]
The Awujale is one of those i respect among the Yoruba Obas-very intelligent and forward loking. And i av heard stories about him in line with ur assertions. I remember being told he was afflicted with a never-healing sore by an Alagemo for refusing to do some rituals. Our duty is to support people like him by speaking out against those barbaric practices. So, am fully with u on this.

As cosmopolitan as Ikeja, the capital of Lagos state is, when the late Olu of Ikeja Oba Rauf Matemi Amore died, wasnt the Oro procession observed? When the late Ayangbure of Ikorodu died was the Eleuku Diety not brought out in broad day light? Please give me a break.

U know that is d problem with us Nigerians - literate but uneducated. So because Clinton did it justifies Buhari doing it? Do u know d purpose for which Clinton did it? If u do research u might find out it was d first time Chelsea came to Nigeria if not Africa. But Yusuf probably schooled in US or UK so it is not his first time there except for jamboree. Besides do u want to compare US revenues with Nigerias, moreso now that things are getting tighter for Nigeria. When State governments cannot pay salaries for months. If Buhari needs d company of his family members what about d other members of his delegation... no wonder Oshiomole carried his wife along also, at a time government should tighten its belt starting from d leader. And for why we cannot "form" America, check these 2014 statistics. US revenues = $3.34trillion, Nigerias budget= #4.6trillion. Americas income is more that 100times Nigerias . See why US can afford anything for its President? So d question remains, of what strategic purpose would Yusufs presence serve for Nigeria?

You are really funny, you know. You make it sound like Emefiele commited treasonable felony.So u see Buhari as a Secondary School Principal and d CBN governor his pupil that should be made to prostrate and flogged. Do u know he represents an institution and not himself. When will we allow state institutions to run themselves and be respected? So, in ur view d heads of institutions such as CBN who happens to be a professional with a mandate, EFCC, INEC and others should be bullied around by the President. Dont forget Emefiele has a job to do and how he does it remains his business. If he needed Jim Ovia there for help so be it. That is totally inconsequential. Besides, why didnt the protocol officers or security stop Jim Ovia if they were so ordered by d President? If Buhari starts sacking professionals like u suggested who will help him with d economy or u think Buharis secondary school economics is all that is needed to run Nigerias monetary policy? [b]Emiefiele is probably the most strategic person in Buharis delegation [/b]because of d institution he represents and should be so accorded - whether in Nigerias fight against BHs funding or corruption or recovery of looted funds. CBN remains d most strategic and Buhari must respect d institution if he wants results.

You know how magnets of opposite poles repel each other, that how the guy's yansh is repelled from the carpet if he tries to sit. In the end, it seems like he is sitting on nothing but magnetism is at work. Like if you agree.
