Three (3) Reasons for the Proof of the Existence of God

INTRO: God is a spirit. Nobody has seen him face to face. This has cast doubt about His existence in the minds of the people. Some people that believed, later began to falter in their belief in the existence of God because of their various life experience.
I was once among the latter group until recently when I found reasons that proved the existence of God to me. They are as follows:

1) Duality of Life: I observed our world and found out that there were two sides of virtually everything in it - day and night, black and white, man and woman, birth and death, good and bad, and now, God and Satan. Majority of the people that don't believe in God, believe in the reality of Satan because they see magicians for instance employing satanic powers in a broad day light to pull their stunts, and evil ones using it to destroy their targets at will. Going by the duality of life, at the polar opposite of the satanic powers sits the power of God; therefore, there is God.

2) Orderliness of the Universe: The universe is too orderly for coincidence. It is by providence. The Solar System, Galaxies, Nabulae, time and seasons, etc follow a very consistent pattern. In their nature, they profess the existence of a supernatural intelligent being as a designer.
The designer is God.

3) Hierarchism: This argument focuses on ranking. In every sphere of life, there are ranks. Equality is utopian. Even in the "Animal Farm," it was later discovered that though all animals were equal, some were more equal than others. We are therefore living in the world of ranks: Good - better - best; powerful - more powerful - most powerful; etc. In the ranks of beings (human and spiritual), at the top of the triangle is a being, and the being is God.

Seven (7) Reasons for the Adoption of Federalism in Nigeria

INTRO: Federalism has been approached with variegated definitions to the extent that one might argue that there are as much definitions of federalism as there are authors on the subject. This notwithstanding, the concept of federalism boasts of a very popular definition by an American scholar, K.C. Wheare who contends that it is a system where powers are shared between central and regional governments so that each is in a sphere cordinate and independent. Reasons for the adoption of federalism in Nigeria include: 1. The Plural nature of Nigeria : Nigeria is a plural society of over 250 tongues and tribes. Besides the Big Three - Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba, there are other macro and micro ethnic minorities in the country. Federalism was favoured among other systems of government in a bid to allay both fancied and real fears of domination among the minorities. 2. The Size of Nigeria : This is another reason for the adoption of federalism in Nigeria. With the total area of...

Seven (7) Reasons for the Colonization of Nigeria

INTRO: Colonialism is a consistent theme in the history of Africa. It laces through the formative tapestry of the majority of African states today, Nigeria inclusive. Colonialism as a concept could be seen from different perspectives. Generally however, it may be defined as the practice or policy of controling a weaker nation by a stronger nation especially for socio-economic and political gains. The territory known today as Nigeria was colonized by Britain. The reasons for the colonization of Nigeria are  simply the same with the rest of African countries. In his masterpiece, "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa," Walter Rodney stated that Europe came to Africa with three Bs: Business, Bible and Bullet. These items represent perfectly the reasons for the notorious European incursion into the pristine and tranquil African continent, which are broadly categorized as economic, socio-political and religious reasons. A. Economic Reasons 1) Search for Raw Material : The ...

Nine (9) Reasons for the Adoption of Indirect Rule in Nigeria by Britain

INTRO:  The British colonial administrative policy in Nigeria known as the indirect rule was devised and adopted by the renowned British colonial officer, Lord Lugard, (although, there were semblances of the policy before Lugard). Lord Lugard was appointed the High Commissioner of the Northern Protectorate in 1900 following the revocation of the royal charter in the same year. The royal charter was given to the Royal Niger Company (RNC) in 1888 by the British government, to act on behalf of the government, chiefly towards instituting effective occupation in the colonies, as resolved in the Berlin Conference of 1884/85. Simply put, indirect rule is an administrative system in which the British colonial officials administered Nigeria through the intermediaries, the native authorities. According to Murray (1973, p. 1), indirect rule was an administrative policy that utilized native customs, traditions, institutions and people by fitting them into the British framework of colonial ad...
