And you?...a brainless entity in sophisticated mumu's clothing

Lol. Haba Walex, do any of these guys look good to you?

It is a case of the wolf in Wolf's clothing(Buhari) and the wolf in sheep's clothing(osinbajo).

budaatum:
Guess you haven't met buda!

Lol. I'd see.

JackBizzle:
Logicboy is jackbizzle

I know. I did that on purpose.

hopefulLandlord:
Did you just assume what I'm thinking then ran away with it?

Logicboy, thehomer, LogicMind, JackBizzle, Johnnydon, cyrex, Mazaje, Seun, etc. I don't have energy for argument anymore. We should be paid to do this here.

hopefulLandlord:
did you just shift the goalposts? your previous claim is that no Nairaland atheist is smart, now its changed to "shown an intelligence capable of bringing us out of this mess"

Never mind though, I understand your reaction is that of someone who realised he's put his foot in the mouth

Lol. You think I'm here to argue or to appear appealing or to win? Lol. I gave up on that here a long time ago.

candy:
My statement is based on my personal conviction, my own opinion of God's might.

I'm sorry but such will be dumb from the Christian if he truly posses such powers ascribed to him.

hopefulLandlord:
Gods aren't known for high IQ, there's a reason Christians say their imaginary friend works in "mysterious ways"

Exactly what I'm saying. Good one.

hopefulLandlord:
Aren't you making sweeping statements?

You mean all atheists on Nairaland are not smart? not even a single one? are you basing this on the religious debates you've had with them or read from them or you also took a mental note of them and saw their views on other issues asides religion? because I feel what you're saying in essence is that no Nairalander is smart

No. None has shown an intelligence capable of bringing us out of this mess. That's if Kay17 is agnostic and I think he is. I've not seen any atheist here with that unique intelligence.

Nichesiteseo:
Sapio, please mail me at the address in my signature with your number. Then I will hop on a call with you.

Okay. Will do that now.

Nichesiteseo:
Hello Sapio.

Why do you ask?

Yes, I do CPA Marketing.

I'd like to learn that. Especially the paid one using BuySellAds, what will it take and is it still profitable?

GutsOverFear:
Being a good leader has nothing to do with your religious belief..

Well said. The average Nigerian atheist is as dumb as the average religious fanatic.

candy:
Why not? God can use an atheist to straighten things in the country. Besides, atheists won't go about killing and maiming people, forcing them to join their non existent religion.

God? Wouldn't that be a low IQ decision from any God that truly exists?

teewhydope:
I believe, only an atheist can revive this dead country. so definitely YES

Atheist? Why? All the atheists I know, the ones from Nairaland are not even smart, which atheist are we talking about?

Are you very good on CPA Marketing?

Jeffobinna1:
It is people like you that is causing tribal wars both in Nigeria, you don't even know Nigeria history.

I think he has a point. A madman joined over fifty heterogeneous people who have existed independently for over 900 years and they are failing, how can questioning such union be a negative thing?

Shouldn't we first accept the system is not working and then sought for homogeneity? Pretending we are homogeneous even with evident pulling off of each others hair is what a stupid people will do. We are trying too hard to remain foolish.

janellemonae:
Wow!

I read it all. **standing ovation**. Well done @naptu. God bless you for this. This needsto be documented. Go further and write a book if possible. The life of MKO. Posterity will thank you for it. The Yoruba nation will thank you for it.

We don't acknowledge our true heroes because we don't even know them. A lot of us didn't know all this about MKO. Education about past heroes, is important. This is the reason countries honor their heroes with statues. Philanthropists, geniuses, veterans, activists. It's not just a honor but an avenue to educate future generations on the ideals the society should value, in that person.

How is Abiola a true hero?

And which is the best to save with, on Zero naira package?

Shukuakukobambi:
You want to start a name change crusade? Who will change the name of PH? Okrika, Ikwerre or Abua? Who will change the name Nigeria? Our internal wrangling will ensure your efforts turn waste

That's why we are here, sadly. Any smart government should.

Shukuakukobambi:
Actually we didn't immortalize him. His brother and oga gave the name to the city. No rivers native had anything to do with it

But we immortalize him by using the name. The same way Ghana ditched Gold Coast but we immortalized Lugard by still calling this forced place Nigeria.

Heartbender:
You still haven't got my point

What's your point?

Shukuakukobambi:
Do you hold his same anger, you have for Harcourt, for the missionaries who raped you mentally with their Jewish, Christian or Arabic myths as the case may be? Evil can never be justified and selective angst must never be justified too.

You would be justified to direct your anger to every Britons who came to this geographical space with their foreign ideas, lumped us together without our consent and proceeded to reconfigure our mental, spiritual and historical architecture and we've immortalised them all.

Harcourt is just a tiny speck in the swamp of foreign criminals who participated in this crime and they're all arseholes. Harcourt didn't do anything different from what they all did.

Mine is whole and not selective. I'm not religious or even atheistic. Yeah he didn't do anything differently but the bottom line is, neither he nor any of those 'explorers' should be immortalize. If we didn't become foolish, we wouldn't have immortalized them.

Shukuakukobambi:
You're getting worked up and I wonder why? Where in the op that started this discussion was it remotely alleged that Harcourt raped PH women? What specific thing did Harcourt do that lugard or McPherson didn't do to Nigeria as a whole? Should we go on a renaming spree in Nigeria?

Once again, what is the relevance of this 'truth' to the developmental strides of PH? Is it the reason why Amaechi and Wike are spilling blood there?

Wow! Wow! The relevance of truth to development? Wow! For the sake of young people reading I will tell you.

First thing...evil can never be justified. The blood spill in Wike's, Amechi's, Lugard's, etc, time is evil and one can't be good or justified because the other is similar.

The relevance shapes our people. 1. We know our history and knowing history involve studying the mechanisms that allowed it. If we teach it well in schools and streets we'd prevent recreating the environment that permitted it. 2. Bad people are not to be rewarded. This is probably where our politicians like Wike and Amaechi got inspiration. A city or state or republic that immortalizes assholes will only encourage the making of more assholes. 3. It restores latent power to full power. If people knew we once had writing systems, etc., they wouldn't blame their black skin for their state today. If people knew the quality of the art and artifacts men like Lord Harcourt destroyed, they'd know the quality of the mind that created it and will start inwards again.

Does this make any sense to you?

Shukuakukobambi:
Every colonialist including their missionaries ruined the mental and historical architecture of every nation they colonised and we have their memory immortalized all over the African continent, don't single out Harcourt.

Provide evidence for the bold portion and I'll keep quiet

Lol. At first you questioned the relevance of the truth. You then agreed that it is unwise to that. Now you agree they all raped Africa but you seem to hold that a proof of the actual raping of our women is the only thing capable of striping Lord Harcourt of his status.

You should Forsythe and others I can't provide you that. Do you think the men who ruined Africa(outside the fact almost all were serial rapists), the men who destroyed our history and writings, deserve respect and immortalization for doing what they did?

In Owerri, we've got Douglas House. Do you consider the immortalization of demons a good thing? These men ruined our fathers psyche and planted inferiority complex in us but we make them live forever? Can the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre be named after Osama?

Shukuakukobambi:
Good. I wouldn't.

Now how did Mr Harcourt rape your wife and how did you immortalize him in this context?

Asking how colonial masters raped Africa? Not only did Lord Harcourt ruin the city by destroying the mental and historical architecture of the people, he was recorded to have engaged in rapping black women around? Is that good enough for you?

Heartbender:
But if you read his post and my comment you'd realise my point. Safe journey

What point? How will a man ruin a city and still be immortalized in the same city? Would a sensible person do that? Isn't that what slaves do?

Shukuakukobambi:
Would you rename your 100year old grand dad because the rapist who raped your wife happened to share names with him?

No, if they SHARE names. But would you purposely immortalize the rapist who raped your wife?

Shukuakukobambi:
What will this truth do to the people of PH is what you and the op have still not come up with. I know some are wont to ascribe some esoteric, ecclesiastical or spiritual significance to things like this but the op has been deficient in this regard. Or is there a political significance? Perhaps it's the reason for the moral decadence of PH (other cities are equally morally decadent)?

What is the significance of this 'truth' to PH? It's a simple ask really

Would you name your daughter after the rapist that raped your wife?

Shukuakukobambi:
Thank you. Now tell us the relevance of your 'breaking news'' to the development and good of PH? Or its just another self-service fest for you and your fellows?

It helps the mental and spiritual, I don't mean religion, development of a people. It is like asking the relevance of truth to a people.

Heartbender:
Stop misleading the public. I am from Port Harcourt and not Diobu or Ikwerre. Stop using tramadol and other illicit drugs

He's right. Lord Harcourt was an overstretched asshole.

Lol. Same shit different toilet. Stop these repetitions bikonu. Please!
