#Wondering....
Wat does it mean.

well explained by oga phtemie though.
I think the statement contains two words that are multi-conceptual 'jealous' and 'mistress'. the former having been well explained by phtemie.

Mistress can be seen to mean a woman who is yet to marry or a woman who is yet to marry therein having an affair with a married man.

Thus, we can deduce by relating law with the qualifier 'jealous' and the above definition that law is nosy and overprotective of its subject.

Law wants to be above everyone without anybody questioning her stand as seen in a 'jealous mistress' and this can be sub-conceptualised in 'nobody is above the law'.

And in every context, law prevails whether the law is legal on its own or not, it still wants to prevail. 'jealous mistress'

It becomes more of a joke reviewing that the LABOUR (liberation) was still young when it had a premature kick from within (coup and civil war).

And you think all these weren't politics (purposed and not coincidence). Maybe, Roosevelt was right in his that "there is not that thing called coincidence in politics; whatever happens is as planned".

The causes of the military rule taught in the four walls are still yet to view things as they happened.

#just my thoughts

Oluwatola5: Ma'am i believe we have ( or should i say had?) past heroes. I did a bit of History in secondary school and i was wowed learning some of how many struggled, agitated and fought for a good Nigeria, the struggle wasnt easy then, their struggle wasnt sentimenal in nature and i dont believe the did it just to gain political grounds, it was purely because the felt enough is enough of them being dregs in their own country, but i wouldnt b suprised if we dont av much to tell in future of our present leaders. God help us. Am limited as Pappy is in my typing also

yea... Well coined in history albeit been mistily cited in ACTIONS they exhibited that they had a national vigour at a point in time.

The strive for LIBERATION was PURPOSED individually, bearing the fact that it was a political setting. One have to note that the LIBERATION was a laudable heroic deed but the INTENT thereafter,wasn't as purposed for national interest as it loomed to be at the point of liberation.

Jakey, I sight you o. How u doing bro?





Waheed: how u dey and how was your day?

Miracy: mmmmm...i‘m an exponent of your points,you just pourd out my thought.

Yes!we av past heroes but their efforts seems wasted n not worthwhile cos their successors didnt/arent performing up to their expectations....

According to my point of view,i think our past heroes are mainly based on liberation n attaintainment of independence...what is d essence of independence if we still experience neo-colonialism,exploitation of citizens by our leaders,bad governance,insecurity of lives n properties....??


Our predecessors did their best in liberating us from the malicious oppression of the whites but those who succeeded in ruling marred most of their futuristic aims by over-ambitious plan n obsession with power....



According to d national anthem,it urged us to serve our fatherland with love....so that d labour of our past heroes will not be in vein but we r doing its opposite,our leaders serves their pocket n their selfish interest instead of d people....d country is sinking deeper n deeper into the mire...

yet, he that would eat yam knows that after PEELING the yam it needs to be COOKED to be edible.

There is no arguing the message of the anthem yet, I put it to you that he LIBERATION itself was POLITICS in the realm of COMPROMISE THEORY.

The Post-independence era was there and we all read how it went if we weren't there per se.

Was everything bequeathed all that great to start off with?

Were there proper structures in place to sustain the realism of the liberation?

Though, there is no point lingering on the past yet we know that the elements of the past are always there till tomorrow.






Would have loved to write on but I'm incapacitated by this Java phone of mine.

Afolabi6046: Papadinho of God, gud evening sir

boss of life I see u oga mi. How was your day now

phtemie: Obviously,we have past heroes...

Their contribution was not peculiar to national liberation

But I would say there were partially futuristic and partially unfuturistic..

Their pre-independence struggles predominantly portrayed them as nationalists whilst their post-independece activities portrayed them as both nationalists and politicians..

See,some of these nationalists bequethed some bad legacies to the present Nigerian generation despite their tremendous effort in the attainment of the country's national liberation..

If time permits,I might come back with a more comprehensive analysis..Morning house.

well, the collective posture they (heroes) had in the pre-independence era proved they were nationalists while vying for seats in the post-liberation term posits they were politicians with party interests aroused by individualistic egos.

Liberation apart........... Cos I reckon that's the ONLY accessible development left by them (heroes). Analysing the structures they left is still a hard pill that tends to dismantle the existence of THE LABOUR OF OUR PAST HEROES (liberation).

I'm of the opinion that that line in the national anthem refers to no other thing but the liberation.

Okay, there said and done, the structures are really laughable going by review rather than laudable as seen in the government's structures via system of government, party system, constitution among countless.

And here we are with the call for national conference

was the thread title changed

Good night morning, everyone.

nah.

I was going through the first stanza of the national anthem today and noticed this nebulous line 'the labour of our heroes past'. Then I quizzed myself.

Do we really have past heroes?

Was their only contribution the attainment of national liberation?

Were they futuristic in the structures they left (constitution, govt structure et al)?

Were they nationalists or politicians?

So many question in stock for why we are where we are.
I would like to hear your view(s) on this. Yes, including you that you are reading this.

Happy Birthday bro. Wishing you long live in great positive happenings and more success to your record.
