ismokeweed: The way your dull mind works. Smh. This is the reason that in 2060, you all will still be asking the question "why are we not moving forward as a nation? If anyone asks you about the nigerian police force for instance you'll say "It was never good from the start". Question you small mind will never ask is; how come the police force functions properly in normal countries but fails woefully in yours? The obvious and glaring reason is that you all are phucked up from the floor up. You don't know how to maintain anything good. All you know how to do is destroy. Give me one thing that you guys are known for that is good apart from jollof rice . Whose problem is it that you cannot function like human beings? 2 Likes |

ismokeweed:well common sense are not common , I really believe you must be a total disgrace to your forefathers , read up articles of what people say when pyrate confraternity comes into existences in 1952 , read up people's comment and testimony, how is pyrate a curse to Nigeria. ? It's a non political non religion distribalised body and it's open to the public , it's aim are to fight against tribalism to mention of few , if the idea is nuture and developed in mind of every one how could we have find our self where we are now. Bros I swear you no get point ... if you don't know pyrate don't accept your application for membership if you have any character ,behaviour against there aim and objective , pyrate has discipline when you do wrong you will be sanction , pyracy is guided by rule and it's a registered association with federal government , if it were to be a curse Nigeria won't have approved almost all his ideas .... bros go back and make your research... the cultism we find our self into nowadays can't be related to what pyracy initiated ... we have our meeting in open ground not midnight nor secrecy .... they try to copy what they have no knowledge about and the result of such is what we see now... tell me how many old men can proudly tell you I belong to any confraternity except for pyrate..... We are proud seadog We are likesmind We are sailors We are the real changer that fight oppression If you are a seadog lemmi see your hands up 1 Like |

ismokeweed: What do you know about Captain Blood or Long John Silver? If you were a well-read person, you would see the relationship between the name "Captain Blood" and "Pyrate Confraternity". |
Re: Wole Soyinka Celebrates His 83rd Birthday Today by Nobody: 1:45pm On Jul 14, 2017 |
LordOfNaira:Treasure island... bla bla bla. And what does a pirate stand for? Those were the only books they read and chose to model after? I mean there are books with great great adventurers like Alan Quantermain. Why model and brand after looters, scavengers, and sea dogs? When pyrates were still fully in campuses and when Bolaji carew formed the Buccaneers, can you honestly say pyrates never fought then? A laundered image is being sold now but I tell you I can't buy it because I've been there and I think for myself. Intelligence isn't just cramming the shit they write now. Everyone trying to clean up their image and claim that back then when pyrates were in campus, all they did was preach. |

ismokeweed: God, you actually expect me to spoonfeed you? You expect me to teach you everything for free? Anyway, I would help you yet again. Listen, the members of Pyrate wanted to be nonconformists. Their motto was "Against All Conventions" especially against the upheld supremacy of the white race and the tribalism of fellow Nigerians. Pirates in the ordinary sense are nonconfirmists.They operate at sea under no recognized laws. The Pyrate Confraternity was modelled to represent a fight against legalized but terrible conventions same way pirates did. |
