Voice of Comrades Not Voice of God!-Governor Joel Evans(GJE)


I must be goddamned if the voice of God! Irredeemably insane if it is! Woe be unto he or she who thought so, for behold even the existence of God Himself is relative. While to some he does exist, to others he is just a logical being, a creation of the mind. Call it a gonzo statement, call it a gorm-less notion, but one thing for sure is that, you cannot juxtapose a voice of a mortal being and level it up with a voice of a spirit! It is total absurdity; it does not add up, joke not! “Comrades power, Comrades riiaaaah, Comrades adjijin, Comrades akcheeew, Comrades akchyaah, Comrades ndialalaaah, Comrades tendeeeng, Comrades vruuuuum,” among other onomatopoeia, not forgetting the clichés as, “ We Will Not Allow, We Were Not Born

Yesterday, Admin Must Know People, It Has Come To Our Attention, Aluta Continua, For The Sake Of Peace, Peace-kende, A Comrade Is Always Right, Tell A Comrade To Tell Another Comrade,” among others, you cannot say, with a sober mind as yours, seriously, that such noise-making, such a cacophony of voices, such a vestige of heckling, a pang of nostalgia, is what encompasses the VOICE OF GOD! And if it is, then we must be the most jocular lot!
What has actually kidnapped my conscience is by the act that whenever comrades go for an election, they elect their student leaders with such a vigor unison agreement. They exalt their preferred candidates who emerge successful so profusely. However, just some few weeks down the road, they start crying foul, ululating, nagging, complaining of their never-ending misgivings and incapacities of their leaders to offer solutions to their every now and then challenges. They become bitter, so much such that they no longer recognize these leaders anymore; they even utter derogatory and demeaning statements to them.

The big question lingers, is this God, Our God, whose voice is implicated through the voice of comrades, such an erroneous God? Is He such a God full of mistakes? Why does He allow comrades to elect student leaders who on the real ranks are not able to fulfill their promises and policies? Who on the real caliber just peddle lies over their abilities to perform and dispense their duties? Or, on the other hand, is it comrades who are using the name of the Lord God, Our God, in vain? Or as a scape-goat? As one whom we can later on finger-point? It is so unfortunate. Campus politicians and leaders should halt misusing this phrase, “comrades have decided and the voice of comrades is the voice of God.” It misleads. It blinds. It fosters sycophancy. It inhibits liberated reasoning. It kills rational decision-making. Comrades decisions, comrades voices, at times, perhaps even many a times than not, may not necessarily be God’s decisions or God’s voice. It might as well be the DEVIL’s voice. BEWARE, BEWARNED! Have a strikeful day, wont you?
