Why is Nigeria full of propagander? I think if a first lady of a country is visiting another country, it is the duty of the govt of the host country that will send delegates that will welcome her. In many case the first lady of the host country would also be the one to welcome the visiting first lady. I am not saying that she commited the crime she is accused of but saraki's wife went to USA she took pictures with Obama's wife. Though she's is not yet back, I am waiting to see her pictures with michell Obama and some other government delegates. 1 Like |

Truth is a pill that is always difficult to swallow. Right from the bible days people of those days never took it lightly to hear the truth. On the other hand falsehood and lies are very easy not even to swallow but to lick and chew it b4 swallowing it. |

Politics / Why The Feud Between Yorubas And Igbos by OlivetBen(m): 12:26pm On Jul 31, 2016 |
I always ask myself this question "what is the feud between the west and the east all about(yorubas and the igbos)? I believe that somebody who can read, write or type is learned. We the learned people shouldn't allow our lives to be influenced by an individual. The individual might have gotten things wrong at the very first stage and he/she will drag others into it thereby creating hatred and animosity among his descendants and other people. Take for instance when we were small(tender in age) there were some homes our parents would want us not to be friends with neither to play with their children just because the head of each families had misunderstanding in the past. And they'll end up causing generational hatred between the families. In the case of Yoruba and Igbo, I don't think there is any difference between them. They school 2geda, they have religion in common(to an extent), they inter marry, they trade in common. As I am, I am an igbo person, I am schooling in the West(OAU to be precise) , my uncle married a yoruba woman(they have children together) and they've been living fine,in school 95 percents of my friends are yorubas, God's willing I am planing to marry a yoruba woman. We are the current generation, let's allow the philosophies(especially those philosophies that breed hatred) of the past leaders to die with them since it has not brought the desired change that we want and develop a mindset that is positive and that can stand the test of time. I read about the kind of friendship that transpired between Aguyi Ironsi and Fajuyi. The friendship that made Fajuyi to die with him(Ironsi) an easterner. The humility,honesty,hospitality,selflesness that was seen in Fajuyi brought out goose pimples out of my body. Can't we develop that kind of attitude and lifestyle? It baffles me each time i go online and read the kind abuse each group lay on each other, I will say ah! Ah! What is the matter? Aguyi Ironsi's philosophies and actions have had little or no impact in the development of this country. Nnamdi Azikwe's philosophies might have solved the problem on ground during their time but that philosphies are now archaic let us change them. Chief Obafemi Awolowo was in no doubt a hero with theoretical and practical philosophies that helped to remedy some situations on ground during their era but if I may ask, are those philosophies still working in this fast changing world? If the northerners are proving difficult to develop, the Southerners can unanimously pull them through with their wealth of knowledge and technical know- how. I would have loved to continue to highlight things but time will fail me. So my candid advice is that we the present generation should step up on our game and leave those past leaders who had served their generation to rest in peace and face our own generation and leave a legacy for the coming generation instead of casting aspersions on each other and I believe that country will be better. 9 Likes 1 Share |
