Sv: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Today's Quote

​If I use half of the foul language, you and your ''brothers'' (IBK, Salimonu Kadiri, et.al) use against me, I would have been removed long ago - Chidi Anthony Opara.

​My dear Brother, Chidi Anthony Opara,

​I have never dreamt of being compelled to explain the obvious fact to you that it is not my fault that I was born a Yoruba just as it is not the fault of every person born into a specific ethnic group in this world. None of us chose our parents. Whatever good or bad things I do must reasonably and intelligently be attributed to me personally and not my entire ethnic group. My ethnic group should not be blamed for any infraction committed by me as an individual.

Having said that, I want you to be rest assured that you are as much my brother as IBK, Olayinka Agbetuyi, Biko Agozino and others. Therefore, if at any instance in my discussions I happen to deploy words that you consider foul, please draw my attention to it, even if the moderator, as a human being, had missed it un-intentionally. I assure you that if I cannot explain why I used the word(s) considered offensive by you I will apologise for my trespass.

​S. Kadiri

Olayinka,
I can tell you for the umpteenth time that Abiola did not win the June 12th, 1993 Presidential election. He may have been "presumed" to have won, the final result was not even announced, yet, you are here making claims and seeking to push them on this forum. As for your anti Yoruba accusation against me, I would prefer to ignore that cheap blackmail!

You very well know that you cannot intimidate me into buying your hogwash! You can however continue with your vituperations against my person in a closely moderated forum like this. If I use half of the foul language you and your "brothers"(IBK, Salimonu Kadiri, et al), use against me, I would have been removed long ago.

I would go eventually, but not because of your vituperations but because I will not be allowed to give them back to you and your "brothers", the way you guys haul them at me!

CAO.
