Back in the day, when men were real men someone would have told the crybabies, the sore losers, and the sour grape pussies to STFU
And Jesus replied, “If they kept quiet, the stones along the road would burst into cheers!”
President-elect of Nigeria Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu :
Mighty Congratulations Sir for an election well fought and won.
May Almighty God continue to shower His blessing on you, to strengthen, guide, protect and enable you and yours to succeed with the arduous task ahead of reviving Nigeria the sleeping giant of Africa, and setting us on course again, with the full cooperation of the whole nation

Our African greats should be respected, congratulated, if possible even emulated.
Our African greats ought not to be denigrated.
The President-Elect of Nigeria deserves respect, and not only from Nigerians.
Permit me to quote from Existentia Africana ( published 2000) by Lewis Ricardo Gordon .
“Even though failure to act against slavery does not logically entail acceptance of slavery, it is a feature of all oppressive credos that one’s actions proverbially speak louder than one’s words, and one’s words speak louder than one’s thoughts…It is progress when verbal resistance has standing in courts of law. ”
Back in the good old days of early Islam, this was the punishment for stealing.
These days the apologist whines, “ "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
These days when everyone’s vote counts there’s none among the presidential hopefuls, the wannabe senators, or among the pious hypocrites that says, “ I only want those who are not corrupt, who have not stolen, to vote for me. The others can all go to hell “
Concerning the birth or re-birth of nationhood, “ ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country.” is the kind of theme that a moderator could have presented to the eighteen aspirants vying for Nigeria's top executive job, for a round table discussion to give us a clearer understanding of where they stand on such an issue, even if some of them would have probably used the occasion as another good opportunity for grandstanding .
