you know,
Gracie Bon ohbee nm,

Gracie Bon obi m,
Gracie Bon ohbeem,
Gracie Bon obim,
there existed
in an era gone by
in this life
on this earth
a generation of
Onitsha Eeboe elders ( male & female )
Onitsha Eegboe elders ( male & female )
who
had lived through
British Rule of Nigeria
and
the Independence Era of Nigeria
and
were as a direct result
of their personal experiences in life
full of
■ deep wisdom
■ deep perception
and
who despite the reality that
they are all now
virtually long ago dead
left nuggets of wisdom and counsel
in the minds of their
grand-children
( note : grand-children )
great-grand-children
and
other similar wards
■ as a general sort of thing
■ as a daily sort of thing
■ as an everyday sort of thing
one of these nuggets of wisdom
that
i can remember now
( .. so many years later .. )
goes along the lines of :
Beeah, Nnwahtah-ah,
ee gar nar ae-tee-nyeh arnyah narh ahnny
ee gar nar ar-gbar nmbor fuh nah arnyah loo lee ee-ei ahnny
orr da-ar de nnmah ka nnmahduh kohbae arnyah narh aenoo
nndee nar ae-kohbae arnyah fah narh aenoo ar-nar eh-meh-kahh mistake
gbar nmbor kah ee fuh nah orgeh neenay arnyah ee-ei looloo ahnny ka ee yahlee meh mistake
TRANSLATIONS :
a translation of that counsel
in essence
is :
do not be superficial in the things you do
do not be ephemeral in the things you do
take a closer more careful look at things so that you do not make mistakes
folks that operate on superficial surface perceptions tend to make many mistakes in life
take a closer more careful look at things so that you do not make too many mistakes in life
Gracie Bon ormahleechar nm,
Gracie Bon omalicha nm,
let us proceed forwards
by
applying
an essential distillate
of
their counsel
namely
TAKE A CLOSER MORE CAREFUL LOOK AT THINGS
to
the key components
of
the
surface-deep?
superficial?
perceptions
namely :
█ (1) NIGERIA COULD BECOME A WORLD POWER
(2) NIGERIA COULD LEAD NEGROLAND AFRICA
AND
THE NEGRO RACE GLOBALLY
OUT OF
THE BONDAGE(S)? OF THE AGES?
and
see what we make of things
and then
move forwards
from there
to
make some sort of attempt
at
answering the questions :
▼▲ (A) WHO ?
WHO AND WHO ?
WHAT GROUP ?
WHAT GROUPS ?
WHICH GROUPS ?
BASED ON
OBSERVABLE ANTECEDENTS
( .. Historical and Current .. )
HAVE DEMONSTRATED
EVEN IF
ONLY REMOTELY
■ THE CAPABILITY
■ THE CAPACITY
■ THE ABILITY
■ THE CAPABILITY IN REAL TERMS
■ THE CAPACITY IN REAL TERMS
■ THE ABILITY IN REAL TERMS
■ THE POTENTIAL CAPABILITY
■ THE POTENTIAL CAPACITY
■ THE POTENTIAL ABILITY
■ TO MOVE NIGERIA FORWARDS ?
■ TO MOVE NEGROLAND AFRICA FORWARDS ?
■ TO MOVE THE GLOBAL NEGRO RACE FORWARDS ?
▼▲ (B) WHAT EXACTLY IS IT
THAT
NIGERIA
NEEDS TO ACHIEVE
IN ORDER TO
■ MOVE NIGERIA FORWARDS ?
■ MOVE NEGROLAND AFRICA FORWARDS ?
■ MOVE THE GLOBAL WORLD-WIDE NEGRO RACE FORWARDS ?
Gracie Bon nnmah nm,
Gracie Bon nma nm,
to answer these questions
let me
first of all
ask some questions,
for example :
█ (1) ACCORDING TO RUMOURS,
THERE ARE SOME GROUPS IN NIGERIA
THAT
SEEMINGLY
DO NOT BELIEVE IN
SENDING THEIR PEOPLE TO SCHOOL
TO ACQUIRE
THE ARYAN TYPE OF EDUCATION
THAT PRODUCES
MEDICAL DOCTORS,
ENGINEERS,
LAWYERS,
GRADUATES IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF LEARNING.
IS IT BY
NOT SENDING PEOPLE TO SCHOOL
TO ACQUIRE
THE ARYAN TYPE OF EDUCATION
THAT PRODUCES
MEDICAL DOCTORS,
ENGINEERS,
LAWYERS,
GRADUATES IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF LEARNING
THAT NIGERIA WILL BECOME A WORLD POWER ?
█ (2) ACCORDING TO RUMOURS,
THERE ARE SOME GROUPS IN NIGERIA
THAT
SEEMINGLY
DO NOT BELIEVE IN
SENDING THEIR FEMALE FOLKS
IN PARTICULAR
TO SCHOOL
TO ACQUIRE THE ARYAN TYPE OF EDUCATION
THAT PRODUCES
MEDICAL DOCTORS,
ENGINEERS,
LAWYERS,
GRADUATES IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF LEARNING.
IS IT BY
NOT SENDING FEMALE FOLKS TO SCHOOL
TO ACQUIRE THE ARYAN TYPE OF EDUCATION
THAT PRODUCES
MEDICAL DOCTORS,
ENGINEERS,
LAWYERS,
GRADUATES IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF LEARNING
THAT NIGERIA WILL BECOME A WORLD POWER ?
█ (3) ACCORDING TO SOME RUMOURS
THERE IS INSECURITY IN NIGERIA
AND
THERE ARE RUMOURS THAT
FOLKS ARE KIDNAPPED IN NIGERIA
e.g
■ CHIBOK FEMALE STUDENTS
KIDNAPPED FROM
THEIR SECONDARY SCHOOL
■ DAPCHI FEMALE STUDENTS
KIDNAPPED FROM
THEIR SECONDARY SCHOOL
IS IT BY
HAVING INSECURITY IN NIGERIA
TO THE EXTENT THAT
■ MOTORCADES OF STATE GOVERNORS
ARE ATTACKED
BY GUN SHOOTING BANDITS?
AND TO THE EXTENT THAT
■ FEMALE SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS
ARE KIDNAPPED
FROM THEIR SCHOOLS ?
AND
SOME OF THEM?
e.g
LEAH SHUAIBU
FORCED? INTO MARRIAGE?
WHILE IN THE CAPTIVITY OF HER KIDNAPPERS
THAT NIGERIA WILL BECOME A WORLD POWER ?
