^^^Idiooocy

I suppose Festac 77 was also responsible for the truncation of the first republic; the successive counter-coup; Africa's first televised war; the assassination of Murtala Mohammed...and much more!

It was folks like you that Steve Biko had in mind when he exclaimed: "the most powerful weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed".

We are not intellectual inferior to them, the problem is that centuries of false indoctrine can not be wish away so easily.

The good thing is that some are now waking up now, to realize their true nature and take their rightful place.

We are the ancient Kings and Queens of the ancient of time...

The wall of fallacy and error of civilization in which we are imprison is gradually crumbling, this accounts for recent surges among the white supremacy clique doing everything to forestall the coming forth of the Truth...

It's no longer unusual for some pastors and christians to be heard saying Nigeria's hosting the Festival of Arts and Culture, FESTAC in 1977 marked the beginning of hardship for the country.

The festival saw masquerades, artistes, spiritual diviners, etc converging and using the mystical power in a competition in the National Theatre at Iganmu in Lagos.

How true is this?

False. As a certain thread was closed down yesterday on the South African racist attacks I was alluding to the price Nigeria paid in the liberation struggle. Spare me a few moments and note the time lines.

For starters it is well known that Yakubu Gowon was the last Nigerian Head of State to be received warmly and on equal terms in Bukingham Palace.

After his ouster Nigeria under General Murtala took on the apartheid regime headlong. Nigeria became the pre-eminent voice of the international anti-apartheid movement. This pitted us in the UN and in other world capitals first against our colonial overlords Britain (strong backers of the racist regime) then the US (Britains ally).

In the process we lost the 'special relationship' Europe has with her former colonies (the kind Francophone countries enjoy and other Anglophone countries such as Ghana, the Gambia and S/Leone). We have not recovered that till date.

The late Murtala didn't care. He ramped up action, calling for boycotts of S/A and fuelling a new pan-african renaissance which led to FESTAC amongst others. Britain retaliated by dis-investing from Nigeria massively in most industries (except oil, obviously, and leading to the Lebanese and Indian influx of that period) . But this was beginning to hit our economy.

By the time Murtala was assasinated and Gowon fled to his motherland Britain (I refuse to believe they had a hand in that but...) our economy was going down. Coupled with the low oil prices an infruriated Obasanjo nationalised all oil assets and kicked out all European IOC's. The backlash was bad and our economy tanked. We were effectively isolated to the world but our African stock stood higher than ever before.

You know the west. They don't give up. The pressed and pressured for democracy as a panacea to our problems. Obasanjo caved in, Shagari stepped in and the money started flowing again.

The summary is this. If not for Murtala's pan africanism Nigeria at worst will have had a standard of living at par with middle income South Africa. We lost so much in our fight against apartheid. We sacrificed our economy and relationships with the west for Africa. We turned from their friends to their rivals and had the misfortune of playing against some of the meanest presidents and prime ministers in America and the UK at that time.

No it was not FESTAC that did us in. FESTAC was merely an expression of what grounded us. Pan-africanism. That is why OBJ remains highly respected in international circles as an african diplomatic warrior. That is how we got our honour as the giant of africa. Not by population or economy but by sacrifice and goowill. That is why he was brought back again in 1999 to get the anti-abacha foreign pro democracy sanctions off our backs. That is why he went roaming round the world trying to convince them Nigeria is back and loyal.

But see what is happening to us and other africans in S/A. That is why it hurts so much. Can they restore our lost decades of development. They bring us MTN, DSTv and Shoprite. We had better than these foreign investments prior 1976. Can they replace the lost scholarships, grants and co-operation in many fields only restored during the Shagari era. Most importantly can the South Africans restore the unending mistrust between Nigeria and the West. No.

If there was any spell cast on us it was the spell that made us look with compassion on Mandela and his co-travellers languishing hopelessly in prison and casting in our lot with the suffering people of South Africa and taking on a super-power on their behalf. These days it feels like a really bad spell.

shey and England too?

Do u live under the rock? Is England's economy a good news for like some years now? So when they said the British economy is making a comeback now do you not know what that means? Am not really interested anyway as am a scientist believing more in matter and not beliefs, but that is what I hear and I saw some consistency when I checked

After all the international jujus wey participate come like Naija pass their own country, dem no gree go back again. Since then, jujurism has gone to a whole new level

Very true! Unless you choose to remain blind. Some of these so called spirits never actually left after Festac 77 and made Naija their new home. Nothing good can come of that

MzJackBaueress:
Na lie joor!

The backwardness of Nigeria started when Lord Lugard amalgamated Nigeria.

and you have always supported this backward people to rule nigeria to enternity.

Lol don't be silly please. If the masquerades were the problem, then all the prayers Nigerians have buried this country in are sufficient to overthrow whatever spiritual authority that was planted here

Greyworld:

It is so demonic....... Nt sure anyway but heard some masquerade, if dey flog a yung lady she becomes barren.

Am NOT sure!


But wat I am sure of is that Nigeria's backwrdness is a product of people not doin tins right, multiplied wit a failin government in addition to d fact that...........

Isn't that the way the logic goes?

@OrlandoOwoh - Why do we continue to immolate ourselves culturally, by asking the most asinine of questions?
I am a little surprised that you are one of those who appears to have fallen for this bait, to be honest.
I'm only sampling opinion, nothing more.

It's just to sample opinion.

How true is this?

op, sometime last year while on evangelism, I met an elderly man, after sharing some thoughts with him, he asked me what book I was holding, the book had a picture of national theatre on it.

The old man told me I should ask our leaders what they did at national theatre during Festac 77.

Well, i didn't really read much meaning to it!!

pls where did you hear yours from??
someone needs to investigate and correlate with the truth.

You are a bastard. So to you African culture is "demonic"? I barely know where to start with a worthless, brainwashed imbecil.e like you. If you are looking for demons, you bastard, look no further than your imported bible god who commanded people to go on raping, mass murder and looting sprees as a matter of course. Worthless, ignorant, stupi.d animal. Meanwhile the Jews you worship consider you a gentile dog while you spit on your own heritage. Nasty, ignorant, deluded, lost pig.
