Dear custodian of African Culture,

Have you risen with the sun this morning? If so, then doxology.

You seem to be adept in stringing together a list of ideologies/actions that are totally alien to the African culture. For that I must salute your versatility.

However, for posterity sake, kindly—and I hope it's not too much to ask—produce a comprehensive list, with diagrams and trend charts if possible, of everything African and exclusively African. I'm pretty sure this would aid your followers in identifying what ideologies to subscribe to—being an inherent part of their culture (keep in mind, while you do this, the sheer number of different cultures in Africa, some openly conflicting wi
th others) and what to eschew.

I would be most grateful if you accede to this request expediently.

Warm regards.

Yours truly,
A confused African.

One realises the kind of mindset our 'national' leaders have when one sees their response to ethnic issues. How would one explain that Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso left everything he was doing and went down to Ile Ife to became a self appointed mediator in the Ife crisis insisting that "justice must be done"? While it is absolutely wrong for there to have been such senseless carnage in the first place, one cannot but wonder how cat got His Excellency's distinguished tongue when dastard killings took place in Agatu, Southern Kaduna, Nassarawa, Zaki Biam and other places where herdsmen were reportedly the prime aggressors. There was no need for justice to be done in such situation. Those lives did not matter. Unwittingly, he has shown that his classification is in the category of the FFKs of this world: national by face, tribal by mind.

When you end up in jail, the ones on the outside, who think they're clean, will insult you, but you will have ruled. They'll hate you, but you'll have bought yourself everything good in life, everything you wanted. You'll have the organisation behind you. It might happen that you suffer some, and maybe they'll even kill you. The organisation backs whoever's strongest, obviously. You can climb mountains with rules of the flesh, blood and money. But if you become weak, if you make a mistake, you're fucked. If you do good, you'll be rewarded, If you make a bad alliance; you're fucked; if you make a mistake in war, you're fucked; if you don't know how to hold on to power, you're fucked. But these wars are permitted. They are allowed. They are our wars. You might win and you mig...
