TRIBALISM

I have never supported a Nigerian politician because he is from my tribe. I have been proud of Technocrats from my state yes but not politicians. The reason is because it is a thing of joy and honour to know that where you come from is recognized for good. But on the larger scale i am proud of Nigeria as a whole. I am proud to be a Nigerian anytime Nigeria is mentioned outside this country for good.

Nigeria is largely a homogenous society and its people still lay a claim to their heritage oftentimes they are able to trace their ancestors to the fourth and fifth generations.
Where i have a problem is when people blindly support their tribesmen whether he is in the right or the wrong. When people refuse to work together because a particular person is not from their tribe. When people are blind to reason and are ready to shed blood because they support someone from their tribe.

Nigeria belongs to all of us, let us set aside all tribal sentiments and work for the greater good of our country. Respect our heritage and understand that our difference is our strength. We are richer because of our diversity.

He treated Danielle no less than a property gotten from one  of his illegal deals.

How about telling people to remember what made them happy in the first place and work on getting back to that place. A man wakes up in the morning and tells his wife he wants a divorce because he has fallen in love with someone else even when children are involved. The fact that you once proposed marriage to a person means you once considered her above every woman, how then do you discover years into the marriage that you love another? Especially after having kids. You probably have seen a slimmer woman or a pretty face or a sexy woman and concluded that you now have a new love. The desire for something new is not usually love but an attraction which can be classified as lust or infatuation. Any time you put your new flame above your children, then you know that you are deep in lust. Sex is an integra...
