Do You Agree That Some Young Men Cannot Kill A Bird? by deletrue: 11:21am On Dec 25, 2014
About 0900 hours today, I took a walk across to a compound opposite mine to say happy christmas to some young men who are good people. They are great people. Always greeting and respectful young people.
I met a young man and his young wife standing with a christmas bird, arguing and appealling to each to kill the bird. The most surprissing thing is that the husband is telling the wife to kill the bird. I burst into seroius laughter and ask the young man to go to a corner where there are flowers and ask him to dig the ground. I took knife and ask him to hold firmly the head of the bird so that I can cut the neck. The young man refused that he can neither hold nor kill the bird. I have to, at that point, do the killing alone.
My question here is how come that the young men of these days are so scared. What has taken away the man in them? Could this be as a result of living in the township for long time? Maybe tradition abi culture?
About three month ago, I was driving along a close in Warri and saw two young men standing in front of the door. I saw in them that something was happening. I parked, went straight to them and asked what is the matter? They told me that thier house has been vandalised and that those who did it are likely to be inside the house. That was about 11:00 hours. I told them that there is nobody there. I took the led and behold, the entire house was pulled down. Shoes, name it are all removed. I told them to report to the police and I left.
Every man, I mean, once you a man, you are a special creature and is expected to do those things that shows that you are man.
So what has happened?

Just like Kenny Rogers' "Coward of the County." In the end, Rogers admonished: "Sometimes you gotta fight to be a man."

Chief, don't worry. It won't take long before everything is taken away from them; even their girlfriends and wives!

But my prayer is: May our country never be handed to these types. They'll just handover everything to foreigners.

Well,it is nothing,it doesn't affect them as a man. I always find it VERY difficult to kill cockroaches talkless of rats and other rodents,though i killed snake twice by mistake or let me say by luck but in an ordinary situation count me out of such acts.

Same with me, I've never killed a fowl, I can't even stay there and see it being done, I can't stand the sight.

Then you're a PDP man. You don't want to participate in killing the fowl but is ever ready to be on the table.
