Our Future Lies In Our Hands by Dolakinz(m): 10:38am On May 24, 2013 |
Fellow Nigerians, by now you must have heard of the gruesome killing of a British soldier by 2 young British men at Woolwich,SE,London yesterday. One of the young men has been identified as Michael Adeboloja and is being refered to in ALL media reports as Nigerian/ British OR British/ Nigerian ( whatever 3-| ) but,do you know that 16 out of the 541 British athletes at the 2012 Olympics Games were Nigerians ? Phillips Idowu,James Dasaolu,Andrew Osagie,Lawrence Okoye,Abdul Buhari,Abiodun Oyepitan,Anyika Onuora,Margaret Adeoye,Christin e Ohuruogu,Marily n Okoro,Eniola Aluko,Temitope Fagbenle,Anthon y Ogoro,Anthony Joshua,Peter Bakare and Dami Bakare. All represented Britain at the Olympics and WERE NEVER refered to as Nigerian/ British. Nigerians !!! It is time we rejected ALL negatives being attached to US as a nation and take pride in our tradition and culture. Let the world know that despite our differences and challenges we are good people with kind hearts and love and respect the human race. We have in no small way contributed immensely to the world economy. We are energetic and industrious and no amount of propaganda by the western media can take away our PRIDE.Let us put away hatred among ourselves. We are living lyk 'A yoruba adage which talk of a man who puts fire on his roof to sleep WE ARE NIGERIANS and WE ARE PROUD TO BE !!!. |

prop·a·gan·da /ˌpräpəˈgandə/ Noun Information, esp. of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. @OP.. 1: Does anything about the gruesome incident at Woolich look like Western Media Propaganda to you 2: Do we not have home-grown Islamic terrorists who have murdered over 10,000 Nigerians within the last 20 years 3: Do we not have a Religious Crisis in Nigeria presently for which 3 states are under emergency rule 4: Did we not witness Muslims Celebrating and burning Flags after deaths of thousands of Americans during the 9.11 incident 5: Do we not have thousands of 419 Cases Home and Abroad 6: Is Corruption not the highest in any nation with resources as Nigeria has We cannot reject what is ours, the Negative Perception you talk about is not Propaganda. it is FACT What you can do is change that perception, it is not by denying your true nature that change happens, it is by accepting it and taking action to change it.. What you are doing is PROPAGANDA |
