juman:
Your assumption of the situation is wrong.

You portrayed it as the brain of the blacks are still colonized.

But the problem of the blacks is lack of sensible leaders.

Exactly. The brain of a black man is still colonised? You don't agree? I don't know if you will have the energy and time to read this http://www.mortalpoet.com/corruption-is-not-the-problem-with-africa/. That is my position on the matter.

Why do we currently have senseless leaders? Those we call African leaders are simply a bunch of ignorant men who have chosen not to educate themselves properly.

Imagine that the majority of Africans have the intelligence of Mugabe(Just that. cos dude is an asshole), the goodwill of Nyerere and the love of Mandela.

We have the wrong set of leaders. Men who have liberated themselves from every form of slavery are not allowed to run the continent. I don't blame the British for their profound stupidity.

juman:
You cannot be blaming the colonizers after 57 years they left.

Blacks claiming the colonizers are controlling their brains remotely.

What a pathetic excuse.

But I'm not blaming them. I'm only telling what happened and how we have reacted to it.

Jenniferbenson:
yes i can though am an undergraduate of unilag, hope i can.be considered for d offer if its still available

I thought that cake job was for one person but y'all want a taste of it.

juman:
Black people cannot rule themselves well.

No sensible leaders.

And the moors are what? Genghis Khan is of what race? The Ethiopian empire of Queen Sheba is? The Pharaohs are? The Nri Kingdom of Eastern Nigeria is what? The Powerful Oyo Empire was of what colour?

They raped you both physically and mentally and sold you the dummy that you can't amount to anything. They made sure they left you with systems and stupid leaders that will promote the idea and it's working.

Simply say, THIS generation of black people are mentally imprisoned and have messed up. The generation of Europeans and white in the Dark Age, before Europe's Renaissance Era, were dumb as well. Even dumber.

Inferiority complex laced everywhere. Africans wake up. The Jews are great because they choose to be great. There is no greatness gene recognised in medical science. I think the people opening threads everywhere to counter the claim have some elements of that complex found in the proponents of the idea.

Nowenuse:
And this is the bitter truth. The only way African nations can stop or fight tribalism is by officially banning every promotion of Ethnicity, Ethnic unions, festivals e.t.c.

This was exactly what Nyerere did in Tanzania that today tribalism is non-existent in Tanzania. Almost all Tanzanians today are nationalists, but this had to come at the expense of the extinction of their original native languages and cultures.

I think our Leaders know these things but choose not to do them. This is not an extraordinary thought. The thing is, making peace and achieving justice is more difficult than war and injustice. The problem will never disappear until they confront it. They know this and like the true cowards they are, they choose the easy route.

But why should we destroy and eliminate our identities to form the Nigerian identity? Was that what Europe did to become the most civilized continent? Why should I respect the creation of a thief who came into my fathers' homes, broke down their doors, stole their properties and forced another man he raped to live with them? Isn't it neocolonialism to assume that such unholy creation must not be defiled?

I think it is slavish to assume we are indissoluble. It's nonsense! I've seen so called panafricans in this forum, who loathe the British for what they did to us, dismiss the idea of referendum as nonsense. A person believes the British did us evil and all they created was for their benefit. But this same person can't see that Nigeria is one of such creations.

Nigeria must be renegotiated. I have no problem with Tribalism. My problem is with stupidity. Tribalism is simply ones love for their tribe and there is nothing wrong with that. We don't insult a man for loving his family more than his neighbours. We don't try to destroy a man's love for their country. We don't try to take away the cord that binds two friends because we assume their friendship is cancerous to our survival. That's how I see tribalism.

Watch on NBCSN at mobdro

TSN 2 is streaming it live. Though it seems they are connected to NBCSN.

I knew the lecturer would be an Afonja man, Very wicked set of people!!

Seun, I think if you want to sanitize your forum, comments like this should be hidden and the handle banned immediately.

I agree with Juan Laporta, Barca's Ex-President. The current board is incompetent. When an average club like Man City defeated Barca in the signing of Bernardo Silva, I knew the extent of their incompetency. Money or greed is not the problem. They had no plans for the window. It all boils down to incompetency.

Competition everywhere..........una compete reach here again

Compete for what?

Jackeeh:
Alone with the armed hoodlums and still have the guts to resist them. Not minding if you get raped or killed. Hmmmm pikin u tough. Wehdone!

Tough or stupid? I lost someone about two months ago just like that. It's both heartbreaking and annoying.

How did you grow that number of likes? And put your price here too.

This is what Rwanda did: http://www.mortalpoet.com/what-we-can-learn-from-rwanda/. If we are really interested in staying together that is exactly what we will do. Cut off every promotion of tribal identities. But is that the best thing to do?

segend:
What is so special about being a Jew?
Does it make you more successful? NO
Does it offer free access to heaven? NO
Does it guarantee visa to Israel? NO
Are Jewish people more special than other tribes and nationalities? NO

So, what is the point?

Exactly, bro. Both those who promote the Jewish identity and those who vehemently antagonise it, have an inferiority problem.

It because we have lost our identity. It is because we have been striped of respect for our own lives that we assume there is an intelligent gene.

A 'source' said...blah blah blah...The media and imaginary stories. Buhari has no honour either.

bkool7:
Yes. I read his comment. He said the man likely started the Mass with them and later went to his car to bring the gun. He also said the man wore black but Ipobs claimed he wore a military uniform and came in a military vehicle

He said this? Which video did you watch? He said the man started the mass with them? He said the man wore black? Please which video did you watch? There is a Facebook page on my signature. Click on it and watch the video. You watched something else not the video.

Thanks. I've settled that.

Who exactly is a good soldier and does any Soldier deserve respect? The one who kills innocent people in other countries and receive applause from his countrymen or the one who dies for his country fighting without questioning why he had to fight? Why should I respect a man who can't think for himself? Why respect a man who fights because stupid men decided to make their personal problems nationalistic?

Sorry. Go to the hospital for check up. Don't tell them the tests you wish to perform. Simply tell them to check you up and explain your problems.
Stop self diagnosis. Tell the doctors to check you and explain what is happening.

Everyone experiencing pain should read these two articles.

What would you like, dear? Buy them warm blankets and serve them hot tea with cup cakes? Ozubulu is not an isolated case of chickens coming home to roost. I fear for my safety and that of my loved ones everyday in Nigeria. I thank God for each day of safety in this chaos. Forget the story. assume it is an allegory. Ask of the allegory is plausible. Whether as you said if "Nigerians harbour thieves" won't there be consequences for "harbouring thieves"? If we don't want the consequences what should we do? Do we all accept responsibility at a communal level? Of course the whole community cannot be guilty of the particular atrocities that brought the misfortune but the whole society is guilty of the culture in which those atrocities thrive. Each one of us is only guilty to the extent of our failure to discharge our responsibility from spreading the culture.
Ozubulu is a symptom of what is wrong with us as a people. even if we focus on the "developing story" as you would have us urged we are only doing that at the risk of seeing another Ozubulu happen albeit in another dimension.
At symptomatic level, I agree there are innocent people. But at pathogenic level, dear, you and I have roles to play and the earlier we start calling for a saner society the quicker we will stop or reduce the rate of terror in our land.

Yeah. Better to call for a sane society than to blame the people who lost families and friends for what we don't even understand yet.

bkool7:
What do you mean by "yet to be identified?"

The motive of the crime had already been established.
The first thing you look out for in a crime is " whats the motive behind it?"
And the motives are usually glaring to an unbaise mind.
Maybe you need to keep yourself up-to-speed b4 to make erronous comment

What is the motive of the crime and how was it identified? I mean what exactly is the motive behind killing over ten persons worshipping in a church and how did you arrive at this motive? Have you watched the video of the Reverend Father who said the mass that day?

TRUTHTOPOWER:
1. I am not Igbo nor the original writer.
2. I don't believe the original writer has the whole answer. He may be quite wrong in the degree of blames he apportioned to the parishioners or the community. But I will agree with him to the extent that "it takes a village to race a child".
3. It is a notorious fact that in this part of the world we care little about source of wealth. Our degree of careless vary from community to community. I therefore agree with the writer to the extent that "a little leaven leaventh the whole lump"
4. The writer is more concerned about solution involving societal effort as against blaming IPOB or Police or government alone. of each one of these categories alone change we cannot have the progress we desire. I agree with the writer to the extent that "all have sinned." "Be the change you want to see"
5. The world masses want unity and peace and cooperation everywhere so separatism even when it has some semblance of local justifications will hardly find universal support outside the locality. So you may struggle and have casualties like sysria, Sudan and all that the world would still watch you to accept the prevailing order.

You may choose to go against what the whole world prefer but you will do so at your own risk. of the cost is acceptable to you, then persevere by all means. just don't be angry or blame the world accept the consequence of your choices with philosophical calmness. Who knows, one day, the world might just change because of you!

Stop this thing. You know what I'm saying. Please stop pretending. Nigerians harbour thieves and praise them. Nigerians also select thieves to praise and hate. I recognize these facts. But my point here is, why blame a community that just suffered a loss with details you do not fully understand? Why must we blame EVERYONE in the community based on developing stories? Don't pretend you don't understand because I think you do.

TRUTHTOPOWER:
I really don't blame you, my dear. You are one of the many casualties of wrong orientation. We can only make progress if people like you are given opportunities to see things in the light of progress.

Chill, and don't bring emotional sentiments here. Think. On what premise did you build the conclusion?

I know there are evil everywhere and Nigerians and humans are often quiet to evil, but on what basis is he blaming the community?

What premised it? Are we sure of anything now? If yes, how did we arrive at it? You don't make baseless claims and expect a pat in the back.

Before an argument can be debated, the premise must be sound. Before we begin to blame or debate if a person stole a missing item, there must be a missing item. Isn't this rational?
