Lemme drop one of my favourites for all sincere lovers: Album - Soul Taker

"Romeo"

I've been looking everywhere for you
Since the day we met
I've never been my old self again oh hoo
You don't have to believe in everything
I say right now
Cause to you I'm just another man
Until I prove myself to be
Worthy of your love you see
I'm not the kind of guy
That will bring you
Flowers everyday
I'm not the kind of guy
That will tell you
I love you in many fancy ways
Oh girl!
I've got to tell you this
I love you!
I want you
I love you!
I want you
Oh hoo hoo

[Chorus:]
I'm your Romeo
Could you be my Juliet

I know what women want
I've been around long enough
To understand it
But I want you to tell me
How to love you
'Cause I want to love you
The way you wanna be loved
It is better to have loved & lost
Than never to have loved at all
I'm not the kind of guy
That will bring you
Flowers everyday
I'm not the kind of guy
That will tell you
I love you in many fancy ways
But my girl
I've got to tell you this
I love you!
I want you
I love you!
I want you
I think I'll prove myself
To be worthy of your love

I don't like his songs. not my type of music at all.

Different colours he said. Not different mindsets, not different ideologies, not different priorities, not different believes. Don't come here to preach a gospel you know nothing about.

nedu2000:

No he wasnt, that was the news being spread around. I just got to know it's not real.

modelmike7:

Lol, funny you. Google is still there.
he was killed by some Nigerian guys, tho they initially want to rob him until one of them shot him. I don't want to mention any tribe, cos I am not a tribal bigot.

Today makes it 10 years since we lost a great South African reggae music legend Lucky Dube who was killed in an attempted hijacking in Rosettenville, Johannesburg on the 18 October 2007.

Lucky was dropping off his son at a family member’s house when the incident occurred.

Lucky Dube! You remain an evergreen legend. You made a difference in Reggae Music.

Remain resting in the bosom of the good Lord!

Those who killed you only kill your physical body but your ideology and what you stood for remains.

Goodbye! Lucky Dube!

It takes a million people to build up a good reputation,but it takes one stupid fool to destroy everything you've done.Take it upon yourself to restore your nation's dignity.

Cutting Off Their Nose To Spite Our Face


On October 18th 2007, legendary South African musician and reggae icon, Lucky Dube, was shot dead in the course of a carjacking. The global sense of loss was overwhelming, as was the sense of outrage at the mindlessness of the crime: why kill the innocent victim when you have successfully disposed him of his property? Police investigations would uncover a shockingly sinister motive: the assailants believed that the victim was a Nigerian. I expect that the sheer magnitude of the implications of this fact—that a victim’s Nigerian identity could even be brought up as an extenuating factor in a murder case—will have hit you hard in the face.

The background to this frightening piece of information is the fact that Nigerians in South Africa are generally perceived by a lot of people as being drug pushers and criminals, which of course as a generalization is patently false. Nigerians in South Africa largely are either highly educated professionals, hard-working business owners who pay taxes that contribute to the South African development efforts, or students who collectively spend millions of dollars on tuition and living expense yearly. Unfortunately, there are also Nigerian engaged in serious crimes, just as there are South Africans, Kenyans, Zimbabweans, British, Russians, and etc., also carrying out various crimes in South Africa. But to carelessly paste the label of ‘criminal’ on all Nigerians, and to use that as the justification for committing outrageous acts of aggression is entirely reprehensible, and alien to the concept of rule of law upon which modern governments are founded.

Even if one has committed a crime, is this sufficient justification for them to be extra-judiciously executed? Worse still, in many of the cases of murder against Nigerians, the victims were merely suspected of committing crimes. In August this year, a 27 year old man, Kingsley Ikeri, was arrested along with a friend, on the suspicion of being a drug dealer. To obtain evidence from him, Ikeri was suffocated with a plastic bag wrapped around his face. There was no evidence that he was indeed a drug dealer. Just this week, another young Nigerian, 25 year old Ibrahim Olalekan Badmus was murdered in his own home. He was placed in handcuffs and beaten to death by a South African police officer. His landlord and neighbor who attempted to intervene was brushed aside and informed that Ibrahim was “a drug dealer and must bring out the drugs”. Just how exactly a man in handcuffs is meant to bring out any drugs is a mystery.

It is completely unacceptable for Nigerian citizens to be murdered on the basis of mere suspicions. Senior Aide to Nigerian President, Abike Dabiri claimed, in February this year, that 7 out of 10 murders of Nigerian citizens in South Africa over the past 2 years, were committed by South African police officers! To provide some context, Ms. Dabiri, at the time, claimed that at least 116 Nigerians had been killed in just two years, in South Africa.

Whereas an unofficial state attitude that permits the killing of ‘Nigerian criminals’ is bad enough, the fact that these murders are actually being carried out by South African police officers, usually without repercussion, is staggering, and drastically increases the weight of the crimes being committed against Nigerians. We are not talking of sporadic acts of hate crimes any longer, but rather a pattern of genocide is appearing.
Many might scoff at this notion, and claim that the number of Nigerians being killed in South Africa is not yet on the scale of Genocide; however, this is not the position of Article 6 of the Rome Statute, which in part reads:
‘"genocide" means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, such as:

(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;’

There is no minimum threshold for the number of deaths that is necessary for a claim of genocide. It is sufficient that there is a demonstrable behavior of killing members of a particular community (that is either national, ethnical, racial, or religious). Is it not time for the Nigerian government to refer the conduct of the South African state to the office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court? South Africa and Nigeria are considered two of the continents giants, with diplomatic relations that go way back to the apartheid days, when Nigeria was a staunch supporter of the anti-apartheid movement. The two nations are also Africa’s top two economies by size. While referring South Africa to the International Criminal Court might appear to be an act of washing one’s dirty linen in public, Diplomatic measures have been employed in the past, to no avail, and economic warfare may do more harm than good to both parties. If the South African government continues to play the Ostrich while young, brilliant Nigerian husbands, fathers, brothers and sons are unjustly killed, then it may be time to take the ugly but necessary step of taking recourse to justice at the hands of the International Criminal Court.

The language and conduct of the South African government has not given any confidence that they recognize the problem and intend to take steps to resolve it. Quite on the contrary, the response from senior South African officials has ranged from denial to subtle justification. Home Affairs minister, Malusi Gigaba is quoted as having said that, “there was nobody in SA who has attacked someone on the basis of them being from another country”, a strange attempt at denial in a country where citizens have openly attacked and rioted against foreigners with significant destruction and loss of life and property, such as in April and October 2015, and most recently in February 2017. If minister Gigaba at least bothers to deny the fact that South Africa has a grave xenophobia problem, Small Business Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu actually provides justification for the latest round of xenophobic attacks, by accusing foreign owned small businesses of hoarding their knowledge, claiming “ They cannot barricade themselves in and not share their practices with local business owners”.
The implication of Minister Zulu’s statement is that foreign business owners must share their practices and thus strengthen their competitors (which is not considered good business practice anywhere in the world), in order to receive the goodwill of their host communities, and enjoy the right to life.

How long will this continue? Have South Africans forgotten so soon what it feels like to have the precious lives of your loved ones extinguished, unlawfully at the hands of the police? One would have thought that years of suffering under the brutal apartheid regime would have taught South Africans the value of the rule of law. This is a call to the South African people, the South African government, the Nigerian government, the wider international community, and to all people of good conscience around the globe: the murder of Nigerian civilians and other nationalities, is a reprehensible act of genocide, and must not be tolerated any longer.
