""Before the white men came, We were scantily dressed.Our women walked about bare chested. Boobs hanging out, rape was minimal. Our men married as many wives as thier yam barn could contain. The white man told us our ways was barbaric. They told us we need to stick to one woman as the bible taught (but most great men in the Bible had more than 1 wife). We accepted their ways of life, changed our names to thiers, threw awayour culture and traditions. Ironically this samewhite men are back With a new concept, telling us we have to now readjust our marriage laws. That, what they said earlier one is not fully correct, about one man, one woman. Now they have added, man/man.. Woman/woman. African Christians still frown at the idea of polygamy, Yet call this new concept "Signs of the end times" Europeans colonized India and Nigeria Both countries got their independence at almost the same time. Most indians are hindus, the kept their religion, accepted the white mans education, language etc. Rare to see an Indian person with English names, their dress code still remains, traditional, Indian attires, India is country developing at fast rate Their medical care is one of the best in the world. They manufacture and export, they area nuclear armed country, have warships etc. Like every other country they still have poor masses. Nigeria, one the other hand, acceptedthe white mans religion. We dumped our names dress code etc. We ignored the technology. Now the number one export fromNigerians is religion. Most churches now havebranches all over the world. Yet our mind set speaks other wise. When the word corruptioncomes up. People imagine politicians, yes most politicians are corrupt. But the masses are too. From the messenger in the office, to typist asking for money for coke. To the policeman in the street. To the contractor doing substandard jobs. Enough of the "signsof end times" mentality, and hoping for a magical intervention. We are the ones who can make the change we so desire"
