jimyjames:taa! the constitution did not bring about the belief that you can use a woman's private to make money when you harvest it. this belief came with our voodoo culture. at a point, christianity subdued this belief because the preaching from the pulpit was that sinners will burn in hell. that time, after Sunday church, before you sin, it will be like Wednesday or Thursday. then, society will have nothing to do with you when they don't know your source of income. today, the reverse is the case. they say "GRACE IS ENOUGH". heavy juju shrines are placed on altars and people pray to this shrines thinking they are in Church. pastors will bless armed robbers, ritualist, yahoo yahoo boys and make them star boys and image of the society just because they pay top dollars. now, no one wants to do hard work. all they want to do is to sit down in one club and order hennessy with lights out, sleep in hotels worth hundreds of thousand per day and fvck big toto. you will see a new constructed drainage system filled with refuse, dumped at night by this same people you say the 1999 constitution affected. only to come out tomorrow to say the constitution is not working. if it was working, there will no floods. ![]() |

Misterone:There was nothing like ritual Money in the 30s 50s 60s education was the dream of every young Nigerian, we had educated leaders who were role models to the young ones, politicians were not billionaires their level of education was what young people admire the most, it made them patriotic citizens of the country, young people held top positions at the age of 20 , 25, 30 , people in their 50s were regarded as elder statesmen, What do we have today? You can't not contest to be president of this country if you are not up to 40 yrs political parties are group of brotherhood cults, to buy a ticket as a candidate of any political party cost millions of naira, all these ritual killings started with the politicians desperate for Power, what ever the citizens of this country do it's a copy from the leaders of this country, democracy in Nigeria is a political game of cultists groups desperate for Power, money, and the Constitution empowers them, that's why none of them wants the constitution to be changed |

jimyjames:it's like you don't get it. you think man is made for laws instead of laws for man. the constitution is shiit without the people. it is the people that enforces the constitution not the constitution enforcing the people. you talk as if laws are alive and work on their own. that is bunkum. no matter how good a law, constitution or whatever is, it is dead unless the people enforce it. and the degree of enforcement determines how effective the constitution is. furthermore, this depends on the character, the commitment, and orientation of the people. P.S to this topic the constitution is not the problem but the character, commitment to unity and orientation of the people. if you take all Nigerians out of Nigeria and replace them with people from Norway and vice versa to use their constitution, they would still beat the constitution to death. 1 Like 1 Share |

Misterone: The point is this the Nigerian Constitution gives power to the leaders and makes them gods over the people, has anyone been held accountable for killing of unarmed civilian protesters in Nigeria? Civilians are treated like animals in the hands of police and soldiers has anyone been held accountable? They are above the law, restructure Nigeria, decentralize power, too much power in a man's hands it's dangerous |

Misterone: Excellent. The blackman is too foolish to abide to laws no matter how good it is and even when it is for his own good. |

jimyjames: Rubbish excuse. If you like give Africans the constitution used in Heaven the Idiots would still fail. It's the people's attitude and Character torwards the constitution that matters and not the letters of the consistution. |

jimyjames:then point out those places, sections, paragraphs, chapters of the constitution that give them these powers and I will agree with you. you see, the constitution protects the rights of everyone even the suspected criminal caught while carrying out the act. now, if the people in their own wisdom deem it fit to lynch that criminal to death, is the constitution responsible for that? or if the people, hand over the criminal to the police but the police take it upon themselves to waste the criminal, is the constitution responsible for that? or if the police after diligent investigation charge the case to court but the judge after some few coins decides to let the criminal go, is the constitution responsible for that? no. in all this actions the constitution supports the right thing but it is left for the people to enforce it. the people make the Nation not the constitution. |

Misterone:When you give the people a sense of belonging they will become patroitic , Nigerians where patroitic in the 50s 60s cause they had that sense of belonging, I repeat, restructure Nigeria, decentralize Nigeria, give the people what belongs to them, resources control, etc |

jimyjames: ![]() ![]() ![]() now take this to the bank. do you know okija shrine? if I take 100k, place it in open sight within the shrine for a week, no one will touch that money. but if I keep that same money in the police station, a barrack, church, mosque, government house, house of assembly, etc, that money will not last maximum 2hrs and it will be gone without trace. why? because we are Africans, we believe more in our culture than any other. the constitution you are talking about is foreign to majority of Nigerians. call their juju name or village deity and you get their attention. tell a rich man you have issue with that you want to take him to the police station, he will tell you go ahead. to court, go ahead. to church, go ahead. but to his village juju, ah! you wan kill me because of this small thing? you see that is who we are. we don't believe in any constitution. no matter how good the constitution is, it will not work. stop being myopic. see the big picture. the restructure you are talking about, is it not Nigerians that will implement it or are we expecting guests from outer space? a little story to end this. there was this village in the SS without drinkable water. a wealthy man in the village had the only source of drinkable water. he had boys that sold this water to the villagers. now government in its wisdom decided to implement a complete water package (deep borehole, tank structure, solar system, pumps and piping to various location within the village) in the village. now what happened? this wealthy man went to government to either give him the contract or the project to run after commissioning. government said no. what did this man do? he organized his boys for protests. when that did not work, he started destroying the structure. he vowed that the structure can never be completed because he will go out of business if it is completed. now do you see how the black man reasons? we are selfish. the resource control you are talking about is out of selfishness too. |

Misterone:If Nigerians fear their village gods more than the laws of Nigeria, then civil and traditional laws should be included into the Constitution, every state should carry their tradition along, |
