As Nigeria Clocks 53 Tomorrow: Why You Should Celebrate

As Nigeria clocks 53 tomorrow...
Some might ask: "what is there to celebrate about Nigeria?"
And my answer would always be: "A LOT!"

 Tomorrow is not about the filthy, corrupt and greedy Nigerians in governance
It is not about the filthy, corrupt and greedy Nigerians in both the private and public sectors...
It is not about the fact that millions of Naira would be spent in celebration by these corrupt people and their cronies as they "mark our independence"... 
It is not about Boko Haram as is existent in the North...
It is not about the Kidnappers as we have in the South-east and west...
It is not about the Terrorists as we have in the South-south...
It is not about the Nigerian Clergy who have become a scourge on their own...
It is not about the various systems, structures and infrastructure in Nigeria which only exist and not function...
It is not even about the good Nigerians who, if really existent, might change the country for the better...

 Tomorrow is about NIGERIA and the founding fathers who fought for her independence...   
It is about a NIGERIA that still yields oil despite all the degradations...
It is about a NIGERIA that remains fertile despite all the desecrations...
It is about a NIGERIA that remains rich despite all the looting and deprivations...
It is about a NIGERIA that remains  my fatherland...your fatherland!

 So, come tomorrow,...
For ten seconds or more if you can afford to...
Find a quiet corner...
Forget all the troubles, the katakata, the wahala, the yawa, the gwogwotigwo...
Lift up something...your hands, a cup - whether filled with wine, water or empty...
And toast to NIGERIA...

 Tell her to keep strong...
Tell her to overlook our excesses...
Tell her to bear with us even though we have failed her and continue to do so...
Tell her that we shall overcome; that it shall get better...
Make her an unconditional promise; promise her something that you would start doing differently to her benefit...
Then ask God to bless her.

 Nigeria is different from Nigerians; where the latter have failed, the former has stood the test of time and for that I celebrate, so should you.

 The Oracle Has Spoken!!

The Oracle Vs Nigeria's Clergy

Chief Priest! I am vexed at the stupidity of my people! Their stupendous ignorance is irking me!! You have to work harder to get them informed...Due to their ignorance, unscrupulous elements have decided to take advantage of my people. You find such men in government, in the civil and public service, in schools and most unfortunately, in church-which is the area that pains me the most. Now, due to the average Nigerian’s belief (as predominantly Muslims, Christians and idol worshippers) in a supernatural being who knows, sees and has answers to everything; crafty men and women have emerged, who pose as mediators to this Supernatural being. They pose as men and women who can get the supernatural being to solve any given problem which cuts across finance; health; careers; academics; politics…name it! They even get this supernatural being to prevent unfavorable circumstances from befalling their faithful. With the average Nigerian undergoing series of hardship from all corners and t...

Jungle Justice: Before We Become Victims

Jungle Justice can be seen as the extra-judicial punishment meted out on purported criminals. Such punishments are usually mob-induced and weightier than those which a legally constituted court would mete out when a suspect is found guilty after trials. Jungle justice usually results to death in the most gruesome ways.  Jungle Justice shows, blatantly, how uncivilized a society is and, unfortunately, predominantly exists in black communities i.e. Africa and Afro-Caribbean. In Nigeria, over the years, many have been killed and others molested/seriously injured over 'trivial' crime cases. Such cases include:   In Owerri, sometime in 1996, a man who made a living out of stealing light bulbs from people's houses was caught and burnt. In Owerri, sometime in 2004...a famished man stole slices of yam which were being prepared by a commercial cook (Mama Put). He was caught and the cook, who happens to be the wife of a Police officer, provided the fue...

Kai! The Oracle Is Interested In The Female Backside!!

On a recent outing with the Chief Priest, I was surprised to see loads of bare boobs and front-and-back cleavages flying around everywhere... I also noticed young ladies putting on very tight pairs of rubber-like trousers which showed every tiny detail of their lower anatomy and served no other purpose than change the complexion of their limbs and butts. Kai! Oracle you too see ooo "If you gat it, flaunt it"...If you have a big breasts, which are meant for convenient breast feeding; chiputa ha! Display them to the public! If you were blessed with a big pad behind, which is meant for more comfortable long periods of sitting...show the public. But Oracle, these are what men like... Chief Priest, shut up now lest I deal with you!  I'm sorry, Great One... How many of those semi-naked ladies would you proudly take home to your mother? How many would you bring to this Shrine? Most men lust for them and the word 'like' should...
