Literature / Aveng!ng Our Ancestors; A Poem. by obiZEAL(m): 11:40am On Jun 10, 2016 |
Avenging our ancestors, not with spear and hate, but with words and love. No, not love for their oppressors but love for the resilience with which our ancestors stood tough, and with words placed side by side we tell these tales of trial and triumph. Before time began, before numbers started numbering, even before they started writing down our history, the Dafuna canoe had been a wonder of its time, the Tera Cota from Nok had been seen nowhere else and the Igbokwu bronze was a representation of our knowledge and wealth The Benin artifacts...enough can't be said, They are still a wonder to behold even to the 21st century curator And till this day they still line the museums and galleries of the oppressor Before the 15th century , before the ships that decked our ancestors kissed the shores of the cost of Benin...before the boots that trampled their skulls stepped on the soil of Aguma...we had seen the formidable military technique of the Kanem Borno empire and the administrative prowess of the Sokoto caliphate We had seen the mysterious architecture of the Benin kingdom and the boisterous trade of the Oyo empire. In the years between 18 and 19 and onwards the oppressor raped our lands and looted its fortune, then turned around to tell us that the man who answers the cock’s crow in his Obi and ask for favour from his chi is called a heathen and he is evil But this heathen was not the owner of the ship that took away 25 million men, women and children to slave in the cotton fields of foreign lands No, the owner of the ship was the same person who brought in the Bible and Quran and asked us to close our eyes and pray with clasp hands …and so the mind of the poet will stay captured in the rhythm of the sacred army of the Ekumeku Resistance Movement...their memories will reflect the sun, the memories of those who disturbed the comfortable and comforted the disturbed. The memories of the indomitable Chief Nana Olomu of Itshekiri The memories of the great Oba Ovonamwen of Benin The memories of JaJa King of Opobo;The one whose tomb lies in the west indies and whose name still trembles the queen Now, in the name and glory of these men and many fallen and forgotten, the poet holds this truth dear to his heart: The creeds of our ancestors are no error to correct and no wrong to undo! These words...the words of the poet are the compass with which we navigate through time and memories to the moment when we got these scars that we now carry as a masterpiece and as a reminder that we were born free because our ancestors chose to die free! cc: Seun Lalasticlala Obinnau Johnydon22 Joseph1013 Noskyboy Kolajamesjnr 1 Like 1 Share

Literature / Re: Happy World Poetry Day! Drop A Verse Here! by obiZEAL(m): 11:01am On Mar 21, 2016 |
More than a moment lost More than a memory to be forever remembered More than the heartache of a jilt More than the beauty of a rising sun More than the betrayal of a trusted ally More than the calm of a glowing moon More than the bile of a fruitless enterprise More than the rhythm of a morning sparrow More than the crave of a lonely lover More than the comfort of a warm hug More than the desire of a travelers taste More than the serenity of a spring garden More than the salty tear of a mother’s loss More than the fecundity of a farmer’s field More than the reality that life is finite More than the pain of a friend’s anguish ...is the possibility of a new beginning The ability to start all over …is the sweetness of the nectar The danger of going further …is the clutch of a loving embrace The strength in holding on …is the deceit of a second chance The bravery in letting go …and above all is; knowing when to start all over and when to go further knowing when to hold on and when to let go.

The tragedy of an unlived life The anguish of a fruitless thrive Who knows the pain I feel When life presents a scar time can't heal I just put on my mask of smiles Hoping to find solace down the isle We had a life, not one you would wish for But it was all we had and it was all we loved It was devoid of three square meals and a teddy to love But the happiness and honesty we shared was just enough We woke up every morning to the shy sun, popping out from behind the mountains We never had a TV set and we never knew the dilemma of choosing between margarine and mayonnaise But every evening when we sit round the burning fire under the glowing moon, we shared smiles that radiated contentment in different ways Until the night when we saw the last moon we had hurt no man and had wished no woman misfortune but still they came for us in the darkness of the night, the raped the innocence of our virgins and killed the courage of our men. our lifes where at the mercy of the swiftness of our feets The killed our dreams and took away our future, not in retaliation for any wrong done, but for pleasure and fun. Our clans and lineage was reduced to another number in the statistic of the trials of our nation Our nameless fathers and selfless mothers where all laid into the earth without dignity or tradition We might have seen worst days but our burning hope will never be extinguished because we believe in new beginnings and happy endings!

Abuklaw:Lolz.... You wish I only mentioned the reformation of our electoral system because he brought it up, like I mentioned in one of my replies, the process of Godfatherism does not start during the election, it is inherent in political parties where INEC has no jurisdiction, it plays out in the campaign processes too,,, so sir, electoral reform is a secondary solution to a primary problem. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 9:05pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
adeaks: Sir, track records equals experience ( the records were obtained from a job welldone). As for the guiding hands we have a constitution and we a legislature. The youth can also learn from history. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:52pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
adeaks: I have said repeatedly, that Godfathers are very influential, and in any election the man with the most influence ( and most often with little credibility ) is likely to win, not only because the election was rigged in his favour, but because he was able to campaign by often unconventional means ( example by handing cash to electorates). I'm not refuting the reforming of our electoral institutions, but we should reform our institutions and extinguish Godfatherism simultaneously to obtain effective in leadership. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:37pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
adeaks: We clamour for the removal of Godfatherism, and we propose that it is replaced with track records and credibility...the youth with they clearest history of excellence should be elected and not the youth with the most influential Godfather. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:30pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Nigeria Practices a democratic system of Government, and that alone is a reason why Godfatherism should be scrapped. TheY people should be left to decide who should rule them, without having to contend with the choices of the often influential Godfathers. That is our stand. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:16pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Catalyst4real: Sir, I agree with you that selfishness is the bane of our development, but my stand is that this selfish leaders rode on the back of Godfatherism. And that is why Godfatherism should be scrapped, It gives room for selfish people to become leaders which yields a bigger problem. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:04pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Catalyst4real: Sir I did not evade your question, if I was to answer it will lead me to derail from the topic... what is the truth that stares us in the face in the face? |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 8:01pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Abuklaw: Character flaws poses a threat to leadership, but installing people with this character flaws poses a greater danger...and that is what Godfatherism in nIgeria does, it automatically disqualifies honourable men. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 7:51pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Catalyst4real: Sir That question is a debate for another, I recommend it for the next round. Now thank you agreeing with me that Godfatherism has to be eliminated and even goin a step further to seeking how to eliminate it... That's progressive. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 7:47pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Abuklaw: During the period of the rift between Adedibu and Ladoja, the latter's rule was rendered ineffective because he left his primary duty and was engaging his erstwhile Godfather...that is why Godfatherism should be stopped, it creates distraction which yields ineffectiveness. |
Education / Re: Nairaland Interschool debate: Unijos Vs Abu Zaria::: Winner::: ABU ZARIA by obiZEAL(m): 7:37pm On Mar 12, 2016 |
Catalyst4real:Yes sir, Among other reasons Buhari won because he had the most influential Godfather. Tinubu have never lost any election in Nigeria and he controls 90 percent of south west politics. So I say he was invaluable in the 2015 election. |
