The #Yorubas

Being a yorubaman myself, I have looked into our histories and observed us very closely with and from first experiences.

 Being a Classicst, I have observed and conceptualised 15 additional forms of Intelligence. There are two other forms of intelligence that are been showcased in discourse on human psychology, but which have been added formally to the traditionally accepted body of IQs. So, these make my thesis here to rate on 17 additional intelligence against which I have observed the Yorubas.

 Presently, we have not evolved 4 of these additional Quotients. But we are both good and great on the 14 of these 17 additional IQs. The ones we have not evolved are 'Preventive Q', 'Protective Q', 'Political Qs' and 'Relationship Q'. I expect some readers here to disagree or even get cross with me on the last 2. Indeed, it may appear that we have evolved the 'Political Quotient'. But I think NOT. Otherwise we would not have Aregbe where he presently is, and doing, probably, what he is doing. There are other factors, sha, why my observations point to a fact that we have not evolved a political quotient. 2027 may prove me wrong or right.

 Then, we may also think we have evolved 'Relationship Q'. But my observations reveal that we have not. 'Quotient' measures a specific point or level of a specific area of human ability. 'Ability' is a vehicle of survival and staying so(surviving). Thus, the primary purpose of intelligence is self-Objectives. Others and extra-bodies may benefit from a man's deployment of his intelligence. It is not the primary aim. It is a secondary achievement, which is(or may be) welcome. The summary is that, been 'too good' does not reflect a high RQ. For example, let us look at a scenario like this: "there is a long queue at a bank ATM stand. A pregnant woman comes to the stand. She walks to the man third on the queue to the ATM point. She begs him to allow her slot in front him. The man agrees. He is now forth on the queue from third".Yes, he has been good to the pregnant woman. But he has been bad to everyone behind him. This is because, without their own permission, he has increased their time to stay on the queue and to get cash. Many of those people behind him might been r running against time themselves, for any or different reasons. But they don't have what to negotiate with. They have just recalibrate their urgency, not knowing they have a 'Mr. Too good " to deal with. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

*** the images here represent Oduduwa. I asked Llama 4(Meta AI) to kindly help me with image of Oduduwa***.So, we have to manage am like that oooo!

From my experience with AI, I realise that it is the users who actually train it. AI depends on its users to provide answers to queries, act as desired and advance the cause and course of various users. How did I mean? Some day, I engaged with an AI to tell me the benefits of certain things. From its answer I saw that it had given the benefits for another thing. Then I disagreed with it,, and I pointed out what the answer it has given me were for, instead. It agreed with me and thanked me that it would, subsequently, be able to give a correct answer to future users.

 What this indicates, simply, is that AI is memory, scientific memory, which can process data, analyse data and produce a scientific result.

 This image here has been provided by AI. I requested Meta AI for an image that represents an AI. And I asked it, "is this the image that represents you?".

 You could see image of human brain in the picture! That supports my description above, of what AI is.

Now, why am I saying this? All of this has made me to feel more proud of my course of intellectual existence - History.

History, thereby, is scientific dossiers of the past, placed in texts and other communication systems, archived in printed principle and processed in minds for scientific mapping of the present and future. It is source of intelligence, not only in man, but in every other intelligent organism.

#point1939
The recent events in the Asia have the aura of #point1939. The material facts of this muster-point are #Trump, #Biden and #Zelensky in the first layer. The second layer has the nature of Europe, #NATO and #PutinVladimir.
In the book "RECONCEPTUALISATION...", there is allusion to why the Roman Empire collapsed. There is a created code, named the 'Augustus' Wisdom', which should have saved the Empire, because it could. It is in this crucible that both Biden and Trump meet to form the 'Layer First' while Ukraine represents the Crucible. Zelensky is the third member of the layer, as the mixer of the mix, having made Ukraine available as the crucible.
This is the mix: Augustus Wisdom recommends 'self-limiting' for State's survival. Optionally, that seems to be Trump's choice in his management of the United States of America, while Biden had previously seemed to have chosen to ignore the Wisdom, by strengthening the US over to and over Ukraine.
The second layer, 'Layer Second' is materialised by Putin, the nature of Europe and NATO by the standard of another concept in the same book(RECONCEPTUALISATION...), the concept which is Code-named "Spartan Stream". This is for countries like Russia, North Korea, etc. This is schematic.
In the second book here, titled "Issues with Imperialism:...), it is speculated that Europe would suffer on their membership of NATO if Trump or anyone like him ever become the US president. This is because Europe is much dependent on the US, and that the conceptual West is no more than an ideological part of the US national interests, which is her national security. In that book, there is a peep into history and the nature of the international political environment, revealing a possibility of a US new thinking under a more or much nationalistic president like Trump.
Nationalism remains an instrument, at the moment, that provides lifeline to a silently dying US, in the form that the Roman Empire approached her demise. But such nationalism is a two-side blade.
In the seme book(Issues with Imperialism:...), there is prediction of the 'Rise of the East'. That is evident in the events in China. This way, the Europe, without the US, is going into limbo. The conceptual West is losing its grip on the world. Already, culturally, many western citizens are embracing the Oriental faiths and beliefs. China has long been sucking the West, economically. Trump is fighting back to retrieve, anyway. But Europe!!!
Usually, the details of each occurrence of history are not the same. But human history has always repeated itself. With different details, though, we are likely returning to #point1939.

RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR AND THE ZELENSKY's ERROR 

In the "Issues with Imperialism: HOW TO READ THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR", there is an open analysis that the Russia-Ukraine war is not a Russian war with Ukraine, but a Rosso-Amery war(Russia and #America) that is being fought in Ukraine by the Ukrainians against Russia(Please study the choice of the keywords in the in the above statement). 

The #author lays out the "errors of interpretation" which the Ukrainian leadership has committed in the PROCESS and progress towards the war. (there are errors that characteristically lead 'error of interpretation', such as 'error of perception' etc. And there are errors that lead from/follow this error, such as 'error of decision', 'error of action' etc). It is argued in the book how and why Ukraine is just a pawn in the chess of the international politics between the West and the #East - to narrow it down - between the West and Russia. It is pointed out how the #Ukrainians are not fighting for their national interests, but for the interests of the #West - to narrow it down - for the US interests. The author even demonstrates how the US has been using the Europeans to advance her own #national #interests and how the US has merely goaded Europe into the Russia-Ukraine war. Now, the recent events around that #history(by the standard of my already proven theory of history, every event is a history in itself. We have history past, history present and future history. See my article on that theory in academia.edu), have prove the author right.

The war war started when #Biden was the #POTUS. Biden represented the #Democrats(the Democratic Party of the US). When the war started, #Donald J. #Trump fiercely criticised the war, and said, emphatically that if he was in the office as at the time(remembered he just left office) the war would not have happened. Trump represents the Republicans(the Republican Party of the US). That discontent supports arguments that the baseline variable of the war was the US interests. It was suitably then suggested in the book that, as the current events are showing, only the US could end the Russia-Ukraine war; not Russia, not Ukraine and certainly, not Europe.

On Friday 15th August, 2025, a meeting was held in #Alaska on #PursuingPeace over the #RussiaUkraine War - to discuss ending the war. But the meeting was between the US and #Russia, the two countries that are actually fighting in Ukraine. Neither Ukraine nor Europe was in the meeting, even if only as observers. This was because the war is neither because of the interests of #Ukraine nor of Europe. So, those who have the issues between themselves in the and as the basis of the war met to discuss how to NOW resolve the issues, their differences. The meeting was so exclusive that only critical toply relevant staff of the 2 leaders of the 2 countries as the real and the actual and only #Belligerents, accompanied their principals. The arrangement was so tight to prevent any leaks(unauthorised feedbacks) from the meeting and protect the #sovereign values of the 2 power players. 

Indeed, it was interesting seeing Europe running around their continent to draw the US attention onward to her meeting with Russia on one of their member-countries that is besieged. The Europe was kicking its legs so that the #US might listen to it and probably take it along to the meeting. Been there when her - Europe - affairs are discussed. But "aki i fari leyin olori" is not a constant rule in international politics. Africa was, likewise, not their in 1885/1886 when in Brussels the Europeans shared African continent among themselves. Nevertheless, there are certain facts about the #European situation since 1945 that are displayed in the book: "Issues with Imperialism: HOW TO READ THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR" that you need to read. The facts show the position of #Europe in international politics. 

In #internationalpolitics, the more you look, the less you see! That is the critical lesson #Zelensky is probably learning now.

Trump-Putin #Alaska #Summit

I thought I was wrong with the vigorous analysis done in this book, when #POTUS Trump said that the Russia-Ukraine war was the "easiest conflict to resolve". However, President #Trump, having tried all he could do, which cumulated in the #PursuingPeace summit, in which he met face to face with #PutinVladimir, the President of the #Russia Federation, he realised that the Russia-Ukraine war has acquired the status of war.

  In this #book, it is(was) noted that the #Russian description of their actions in Ukraine was "Special Military Operation"(SMO). Therefore, it was(is) warned that the world should timely resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict then that it was still a conflict, that the #conflict must not be allowed to progress onto war form. This is because, in any #war, there must be a clear winner and loser; that is, there would be victory and defeat, Victor and the vanquished, for the war to end.

 Unfortunately now, #Russia has scaled her SMO in Ukraine up onto a war in Ukraine with Ukraine. And, unfortunately, this war is an existential war for both Russia and Ukraine. Yet, a #peacedeal on the war would still highlight a winner and a loser, either active or passive. That is the reality of this conflict.

 At this point, credit must still be given to #POTUS Trump for approaching the sought resolution of the war from an angle of #Realism. Otherwise the world would be rolling into its third war, which, as it is predicted in this book, might be the last war on Earth.

 The #author of this book created an instrument for negotiating any complex conflicts and crises as the Russia-Ukraine conflict is. The instrument is named "the nature of things"(see "RECONCEPTUALISATION OF IMPERIALISM in the Context of Rome and the US" for the details of the instrument. Applications of the instrument is done in the "Issues with Imperialism:HOW TO READ THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR"). This instrument is applied, in this book here, to the Russia-Ukraine war. For me, that is the only way to go to end the war; because at its present stage and state, this war cannot be stopped. It can only be ended. It is no longer a "Special Military Operation"(SMO). it is now a war, and an existential war. 

***By Moses Oyelade, PhD.

While working on Imperialism for my thesis, I realised that the historic Yoruba people, especially the #Ibadans, missed the opportunity to have impacted on the course of the history of Nigeria.

 Here is it:

 I discovered bases of comparison between the ancient #Romans and, especially the historical Ibadans. The ancient Romans were skillful warriors, courageous, daring and clearly unyeilding in wars and battlefields. They were very intentional in their war aims, objectives and goals. Their goals were always clear to them. You cannot say you have defeated the Romans. They would regroup and fight verociously to put you down. If you came to them, they would sacrifice anything and everything to defend their city. And when they had successfully defended their homeland against you, they would not stay at that. They would follow after you, take the battle to you in your homeland. They would make sure you are defeated at home and then take your home from you and put you under their rule. Why do you think they did that? It was to ensure that you were never again be a threat to them in anyway. That was why and how they eventually acquired an Empire.

 Such fear for existence exists under what is known as 'existential threats'. That is the model for the US' Imperialism(many people call it "the #US #Empire", others call it "the US hegemony". But there is a huge difference between Empire and #Imperialism. The difference is a thin line. Learn about it in the "RECONCEPTUALISATION OF IMPERIALISM in the Context of Rome and the US").

That 'fear for own existence' is the same model for the Israeli plan to militarily take Gaza over. That is to ensure that the #October7th never happens again. The same is the model for the US decision to enter Mexico to do in #Mexico what Mexico herself has been unable to do, and what has become an existential threat to the US.

 Now, you would recall that there were wars of #Conquest between the Fulanis and the Yorubashire, in which the #Fulanis attempted to conquer the Yorubashire, and rule over the yorubaland as they had succeeded in doing over the Hausa people in Hausashire.

 In those struggles between the Fulanis and the yorubas, they yorubas were able to beat off the Fulani invasions. The yoruba war efforts were led and conducted, majorly, by the Ibadans. Of course, the Ogbomosos also played very vital roles. That explains why the Fulanis War-routes were towards #Offa-Osogbo axis, from Ilorin; in spite of the fact that #Ogbomoso is about 23 minutes drive from Ilorin, meaning that the Ogbomoso axis is the shortest or the short route to the yorubaland. But the Fulanis could not go through Ogbomosoland into the heart of the yorubaland they had coveted. 

  The Ibadans were equally 'happy' warriors. They were very skilled in the art of war. And like the ancient Romans, too, the Ibadan warlords were courageous, daring and unyielding in battlefields. Generally, the yorubas were warlike people. That was why the yoruba war General must either win the war or die in the battle. The yoruba history is replete with wars. They were at war until the advent of the white colonial invaders. 

  But for most of their history, the Yorubas engaged in intra-tribal wars. That is, the Fulanis were the only outsiders the yorubas have had to fight wars with. This may explain why they, with their chief war quarters, the Ibadans, were not intentional in their wars against the fulanis. And this 'unintentionality' in their war aims, objectives and goals, contrary to the nature of the ancient Romans, is the theme of this post. 

 Now this is the point: if the historic Ibadans were as practical, intentional and forsighted as the ancient Romans, they would not have stopped at beating off the Fulani invasion. They would have gone after them, all the way to Sokoto. And the history of the country might have been different.

#Trump-#Putin #Alaska #Summit

In this #book, there is Code #point1939. The code signifies the last landmark in the #global #history. It appears in an analysis of the the mythical statement 'history repeats itself'(details in the book).

 One of the cardinal reasons the US got involved in the WWI in 1917 was for #Europe to grant #independence to her various #colonies around the world. Thus, after the end of the WWI in 1919, the the US tried to organise the world into a political union to generate mutual understanding and #cooperation among the free states of the world in order to prevent another world war. This was organized in the #Yalta Conference at which the US drew up some 14 points of the union and cooperation. 

 However, Europe did not commence process of independence for her colonies, coupled with the fact that the #US #Congress did not approve the US membership of the #League of the Nation, she pulled out of the global cooperation body she initiated. Then the world history came to #point1939.

 Friday August 15th, Trump and Putin would meet in #Alaska over #ukraine under the #russiaukrainianwar. This is forboden. A few days ago, Trump said he would know within 2 minutes of the meeting with Putin if there was going to be a #deal over the subject of their meeting. And today he has warned that "there would be severe consequences for #Russia if Putin did not agree to end the war". That means the meeting is an open-ended one.

  However, staging an open-ended meeting with a high ranking nuclear power that is or sees himself fighting an existential threat is likely driving the global history back to #point1939.

 The way and manners history repeats itself are usually not in the details, but in the events, regardless of the details.

There were 3 events within the last 3 days which represent the dynamics of international politics and that find both theoretical and practical explanations in the two books here.

 Bibi Netanyahu proposed to the Israeli national assembly and got the approval to militarily take over Gaza, that is, Conquest.

 The US ambassador to the UK said the Great Britain would have lost the WWII if Sir Ken Stiemer(?) was the British PM during those years of the war.

 Third, POTUS Trump has ordered the US forces to move into the Latin Americas to confront the drug cartels. He is not seeking the permission of those Latin American countries(Mexico, especially).

 The first and third events reported here are decisions taken exclusively for the national interests of the states taking the decisions. The absolute national interests is the national security.

 The second event highlights, emphasises and ramifies the truth of #realism, which states that there is no room for emotion in international politics. Sir Stermier(?) has seemingly been emotional on the issues of Gaza.

 If you read these two books here, or any of them, you are going to gain deep insight into the real world of our world. That is why I have recommended them to various state managers.

 Remember, I have been stating it, now for a while, that, for Nigeria to be safe to pursue her prosperity, we need to invade and take strategic control of, at least, the Niger Republic. That is equal to Trump going to Mexico and Israel taking Gaza over. It is all to advance the national security of their respective states, which is the absolute national interests.

We all have a duty to live the world better and greater than we have met. Many people advance the cause of the world with great skills that add values to other individuals' socio-economic well-being through various types of job and wealth creation. Others do their through specific problems they solve, as often as those problems arise. Many others, as well, contribute to the cause of the world by looking at the world in its past and present, and then try to advance the cause through reviewing the past and the present and then preview the future and advise the course for the future goodness. This is the essence of the work done in the efforts that feature in this video. And these efforts cover both communal and personal futures 👋👋👋

The best feeling of scholarship is when you see your works aligning with the realities of our existence. My purpose of going into Classics, which is defined as 'Classical Studies' at the undergad, was to go into the world of our World.

 Department of Classics offers such a unique opportunity. The discipline is a concentration of everything about us, about we human beings - Humanity, and the environment of our existence, physical, mental and spiritual. Branches of Classics include Ancient History - Archeology, Anthropology, Civilisation and Culture with every other tree of #History as a discipline; Classical Literature - Greek and #Roman; Classical Philosophy, that is, the beginning of philosophy as a course of life; Mythology, which is the base of any and every religion; Classical Languages - #Greek and Latin; Astrology, Greek Medicine, and other foundations of human knowledge.

 My focus started with Ancient History, specifically Roman and Greek history. We called Roman and Greek #Civilisation. This encompasses every detail of human society - politics, economy, social, culture, belief systems, literature, war and peace, development and collapse, etc while the second of my focus was Mythology. #Mythology in Classics is actually Human psychology. Because it is our mind that is the centre of our beliefs and behaviours, and the way we have chosen to live in our individual environment while the characters of our environment decide the set of our beliefs and belief systems, within which we find our God and keep him. This particularly was so intriguing. For you can see how, even our fervently held belief in our present age, originated and transmitted, from generation to generation, and their morohological processes. What was more intriguing for me was the Question of our Immortality. That was why I delved into it for my undergad's long essay project.

 When I went back to the department for my research degree, my honest approach to knowledge acquisition was dictating to my decision on what I should pursue in the research. I had wanted to pursue the Question of our Immortality to a conclusion. However, it was(stii is) my belief and understanding that all we know about human Immortality up to date, is our appropriation. Nothing is sure! Nothing is certain for us yet! So, as a research, it is not very useful to just or further approximate the extant appropriations on the issues of our #Immortality.

 Thus, to do a true and credible research into our Immortality, the researcher would need to die or visit the other side of life. In Buddhism, I understand that there is a vehicle to use to attempt such a journey. That means I would have to go to Tibet. Join #Buddhism on purpose and then.....!

 There was no promise of funds to conduct that research. So, turned my focus on the first of my interest in Classicsm. Which is History. As usual and standard, a PhD programme is a narrowed subject. So, I narrowed it to Political history, and then down to international politics, because Classical history, particularly Roman history, has remained the epitome and standard of International Politics. Because then was when Imperialism evolved, by the Romans. So, using #Imperialism as the independent variable, it was possible to process historical studies to generate a fresh and new knowledge that is practical, functional and appliedable to the solving of the problems of the modern world, and a vehicle to the future.

 Conducting the research, I deinvested myself of any personal interest, bias or prejudices. The initial working title was different from its eventual title. The research was approached from a perspective of guilt by both #Rome and the #US. But the data, which were honestly, scientifically and thoroughly gathered and interpreted impersonally, became independent and had their own voice in the research. And it was only their voice that was spoken in both the results of the research and these books here. 

 These two books here are products of that program, the PhD research programme that was conducted in #Classics.

 The first book shares title with the title of the research topic. It is therefore more a theoretical book. The second book is application of the first book to the unfortunate ongoing #Russia-#Ukraine war.

 That is what a honest and genuine research can do. It will always find its echoes and applications to issues and matters of real life and real life experiences. Both of the books are available worldwide.

When you see this book on the shelves of a bookstore or Library, it is most certain that the first impression it would give you is that of mathematics book. Then, you would be held when you read the title of the book. The book is a response to the unfortunate Russia-Ukraine war that is still going on. This means the categories of the book are politicalscience, #history #politicalphilosophy #history #Classics #imperialism #internationalpolitics #internationalhistory #peaceandconflict #strategicstudies #military #war etc, all which fall within #humanities in Tertiary and Research institutions. Thus, the book is not even in the fields of science.

 However, evolution of research in Tertiary and other research institutions is reducing the extant gulf between or among classes of fields of studies in those institutions. There has been growing trend of multidisciplinaries and cross-disciplinary in those highest places of studies. For example, my PhD programme was cross-disciplinarily conducted. That was why I had two supervisors from two different departments in two different faculties. All those development in Tertiary and other Research institutions is to advance the cause and course of humanity, as the good of humanity(we humans) is the only reason for studying and the only motivation.

 Thus, the purpose of collaboration among various or diverse disciplines is to achieve a very scientific result that will stand the test of times in every topic of research endeavours. This is why our book here went scientific in the study and research on its subject, that is, the Russia-Ukraine war.

 Every element of the war was examined and tested on relevant scientific bases. The central scientific basis was a mathematical model which fits Causality. That is why that model is placed on the cover page of the book. There are long tested and proven scientific statements by very respected physicists, cosmologists and computer scientists which were relied on to push some of the central arguments in the book. It is not surprising, therfore, to be informed today, that a professor in the department of Mathematics in the New York read one of my journal articles online. That article has been drawn from the book we are talking about here.

  Of course, the book is suitable for research students and senior students across various aligned disciplines in Universities from 300 level and above(some of them are mentioned above) It is full of resources and research questions and ideas that would help advance the cause of knowledge, as well as helping to extend the "frontier of knowledge".

 More certain, still, is that the book is a very useful nodal resource for State managers, and a very interesting read for individuals around the world, who are justly inquisitive and curious enough to want to understand our international political environment, and how our world works.
