By all accounts, Nigeria’s political history has shown that the struggle for independence and nationhood has not only been tortuous and cumbersome but daunting and tasking.
Historically, while it is true that not much blood was spilled in the struggle against colonialism as was the case in some African countries, many of Nigeria’s founding fathers suffered untold hardship in the hands of the colonial masters.
Whatever, the Colonial Masters played their role on our independence.
Please leave a word for Lord Frederick Lugard, the man who amalgated the Northern and the Southern protectorate and the wife Flora who suggested the name "Nigeria".

Is this season 2?

I'd already bagged my B. Agric(Crop Science). I'm looking forward t doing my Masters in Crop Pathology, ASSU willing.

So the high IQ dey make tall people walk like MUMU? I doubt if height and IQ are correlated in Nigeria here. Short people are smarter and intelligent than the tall ones.

Please, is SSANU not also members of ASSU?

So should GEJ treat us like inanimate objects?

You don't have anything to say, is Rivers State so dumb to know the current trend in information dissemination? Akwa Ibom state recruited teachers last year and posting was done(early this year). Posting list were pasted at all the Local Education Commitees(LECs) in all the local gov't and a letter was equally sent to the affected schools. I believe the Police this time.

:/

ITbomb: The Bible says "And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach." (Isaiah 4:1).

Scun: Sometimes I feel our leaders are trolls who deliberately set out to annoy us. He is yet to give any sppech or press release on the 26 who were killed in Abuja last week, nothing on the 142 and counting killed in Borno, but he has time to send condolence message to and pledge support for Kenya. Very annoying

Speech or Press what? You should be used to the "We are on top of the situation" speech.

Bomb is always start exploding at the back.

I don't think so, they employed more hands. I marked some of their scripts.

@OP, Tradition is tradition, I would advise you to encourage your cousin to do it. If you don't do it someone can go and report you to your ancestors, someones head can roll. Even the bible has said that we should not be ignorance of the devices of the devil. I rest my suit case.
