Those who wish to understand us must know time The war we wage is just for time The end is not at sight Its future is neither clear nor bright What we fight for is not defined This war! This war!! This war has no friend nor enemy it seems Those you fight for look much like the real enemy Such a war where the weak defends her enemy But the weak is the friend we war to protect Those you fight for sleep deeply with the enemy In few moments the sleeps cause children Who is the enemy? Who is our friend? This war! This war!! They are cowards! They are cowards!! They have no camps They have no homes They sleep and wake in the house of our weak What an assemblage to shield and what a weak to protect? What a marvel of satisfaction and delight How the raped shouts in gracious pleasure What a war! What a war!! Why do they always hide? Why do they always come by sudden? Why do they always runaway afterwards? Where do they always come from? ...

Yes it happened! I was awake till about 3.10am this morning and be sure I needed some hours until 8am to make up for the lost sleep but it was not to be. Just at about 5am or thereabouts, my phone was barking silly from all four corners of the house shouting at me as if about calling me a lazy man. It was terrifying that the pillars of the house pleaded I should get up even if it is for their sake. I did. From only two humans, it was as if a thousand generations were calling; just two persons? They are for sure my best friends and greatest lovers. One was calling from my ancestral home in the village and the other from a city of Igwenga; my dear mother and my beloved Uche. The story had gone round. Over and beyond here, even down to the farms in the hinterlands of Tiv land in Benue State Nigeria, people were already taking early morning hot salt-solution bath. Just like the usual care, I was advised to make sure I stand up immediately or as early as possible to have a shower wit...

As if I was about thinking! Ouch! It is as though am casting blames Our place is great and so nice Everything is good and kind to all of us All we have lost is the mind Just the mind and that alone What else remains? Every bit of us is sore unsafe What a community of shame The men we pay to save are murderers Our sleep is maimed and slaughtered Our peace is sold to dreams Our welfare has become an expensive imagination What remains of life here? Life has lost meaning and values are dead Culture has become a word of confusion Just as truth is buried, words have lost meaning We now talk without communicating Understanding has left human existence Crises and wars have become intense reality They just happen and no reasons are fastened Is there anything more left for knowledge? Men of wisdom are almost all gone The rest are hurriedly getting set to leave What hope is here for us? Has death become the only resort? The happiest day...

INTRODUCTION Many considerations on the relationship between knowledge and understanding tend to, first of all, grapple with the question of which has priority, which comes first - knowledge or understanding? Pondering on this, other questions eventuate: at what time can we say we know? When can we say we understand? It seems that we must understand certain things in order to know and for us to understand, we certainly must know something. According to Richard Mason, “It is easy enough to set up a debate over the priority of knowledge and understanding. On the one side, what you know must come first. What you understand can be seen as part of what you know. More radically, you can always ask: What do I need to know in order to understand? On the other side, you have to understand knowledge before considering what you know.” 1 Furthermore, one can contend that to know an argument, for instance, is not the same thing as to understand the argument. To know the argument might simply m...
