I have always been of the opinion that being good or bad is not a function of tribe, education or religion. Being faithful in a mariage or relationship also is not a function of sex, neither is being a good parent reliant on gender. Often times, people say "men are wicked, women are greedy, troublesome, and men are naturally promiscuous". How true are these claims?. Because one man beats his wife doesn't mean that another woman does not beat the hell out of her husband. Because women are often associated with love to children does not mean that all women are good parents and there are no better male parents. We have seen or heard stories of women, who throw away their babies, haven't we?. Where did the love go?. On the same vein, if men are stronger vessels, we have heard and seen men cry their eyes out while a lady pats him to silence. Where was the strength?
My main point: come 2015, should Nigerians vote tribe or character? Should they vote religion or reliability? Should they vote party or personality? Gender or geniuneness? All those politicians try to incite us against particular political parties make those parties look so bad and make themselves saviours. Just like man who calls man greedy and leave his gender out, or woman who calls every man a goat and doesn't mention the breed her father belongs to, politicians may try to paint opposing parties black, but they themselves also have their rots. And then you see us, fighting their fights, you see us mounting roadblocks and burning tyres in the middle of main roads causing traffic jams. You see us misbehaving, killing ourselves for these guys who will only enrich themselves and family when they get to power. You see us fighting for sentiment rather than common sense and true leadership. When will nigerians get it right?
Your comments are deeply appreciated ..
Damn didn't know it's still gonna be relevant till today

PMB till 2023 ND PMB for third term

God bless you for this post. If all these stereotypes and tribalist notions did not exist in this country, Nigeria would have been a much better country, and also much advanced.
My prayer for this country concerning the forthcoming elections have always been "may the best man win", and not may the man of my tribe or preferred political party win.
It is well with this country.

Tomorrow!!!!

Brilliant observation. The same thing we have talked about. We have army of youths who can decide their fate and have whatever they want politically, but on unfortunately, certain sections are hell bent to express tribalism at any given opportunity. This trying moment is our best bet to unite against political predators. Our resolve for picking a candidate must be base on performance and track records without bias or prejudice. But when political goons littered critical discourse with senseless praise without credible evidence, then the situation get messier. But we hope, those of us that think right will continue to voice our concerns believing that sooner our objectivity will become contagious and a pattern for sound reasoning.

Until the present overfed,visionless ,clueless nd corrupt leaders are annihilated

It is well

Oh my dream home! Oh beautiful country! Oh Biafra! But if death is the price we pay for all we hold dear; then let us die without a shred of fear!
