OohLalah: As a Muslim who will NEVER change my religion, I have issues with the idea that the average Muslim just want to go out and kill people It is a disservice to the peaceful majority, I will stand up for Islam There are millions of Muslims in Nigeria and we have seen places where they have never had any issues with anyone. How do those feel when they are judged by the murderous tendencies of the mad ones - Boko Haram and ISIS - who deserve to be called human beings But I will also stand up for the right of others to live peacefully No one who has a conscience will not be moved to tears by the senseless and thoroughly insane act of that guy in Nice yesterday How can you run a truck into children? How? Why on earth? children! innocent beings who don't care about race and religion? I would have preferred that the guy be caught alive and then made to regret being born He got away too easily - just a bullet which he did not mind! OohLalah: I have no issues with the company that South Africa keeps OohLalah: That is the hypocrisy And one thing that gets me angry - Mandela fought oppression the same way the Americans who fought for independence from Britain did |

chidozieikeji2: For the record, Nigeria's problems have been caused by reliance on selling raw materials, and refusal to manufacture or produce the things that we make. The thing is....we must get off our reliance on oil, and become a self reliant country. That is what this APC government must be judged on.... And by the way, we overthrew democratic rule in 1966....and ended with a civil war. We overthrew democratic rule in 1983...and ended with worse economic situation, and then SAP. My beef with our leaders....PDP or APC is that they refuse to face the fact that our resource dependency is what is causing our hunger. We need to make the sacrifices needed to become a strong and self sufficient nation. And we should be mature enough to do it via the democratic process. Army rule won't change Nigeria. Freedom from oil dependency will change Nigeria. Truth. |

chidozieikeji2: One more thing.... Buhari ran for president in 2003, 2007 and 2011...and lost every time. He succeed on the fourth try. Why am I saying this? Democracy is hard work. GEJ was not a coward. No sir. (I am not his fan, by the way). It is just that he lost to someone who had lost elections more times than he did, and in the process learned from each failures....and wanted it harder The reason why Buhari would win in 2019 is not because of The Hausas.....but because the opposition will not do what Buhari did. Make alliances with people you do not like (eg Tinubu and Saraki and company), have supporters in every part of the country, and work hard. They will be split up into bickering factions. I don't want to see APC rule Nigeria forever. I like a healthy democracy. But we won't get there by sitting down and grumbling about how bad things are. There are a lot of better people out there than PMB who could have done a better job than he did. The reason why they are not ruling the county is because they sat down and lazed around, and grumbled about how corrupt things are while PMB went out, risked losing three times, risked having his embarrassing comments dissected, including the Sharia stuff...and won. In other words...PMB was not afraid to fail. Are you too afraid of failure? 1 Like |

chidozieikeji2: IPOB attacked dangote trucks - fact, easy to prove Nigerian Army composed mostly of other tribe soldiers - difficult to prove and even plead as a defence Igbo soldiers will eventually obey the order of their commanders when they confront IPOB youths Otherwise, they will pay with their own lives But what do you expect? You think when Ihejirika as Chief of Army Staff was fighting Boko Haram, he took Kanuri soldiers there? |

jornie: We are not. We are going in circles. Check all the coup speeches since 1966, they have occurred because of the same problems we are still battling today. Check all the campaign speeches & manifestoes, they have been about solving the same problems we've been facing since 1966. 2 Likes |

quickly: So if a European citizen goes to Nigeria to support Boko Haram and comes back to continue his terror on European soil, we should assume that all Nigerians are terrorists? It's actually Putin who supports Baschar al-Assad but Assad and his government are not Syria. |

OohLalah:Saying that Jews and Christians don't act on Jihad calls is false and history has proven this times without number. During the British rule in Palestine the Jews were instructed to attack British targets based on teaching from Jewish scriptures. Similarly, The Lord Resistance Army were composed of Christians and used the Bible as a proof. I can list other cases but this will suffice for the time being. As for Muslims that engage in indiscriminate killings they're referred to as khawarij and are to be fought by a united Muslim army under the command of a ruler. 1 Like |

Turkish leaders failed to strategize well enough.The coup was executed too fast.Even though more than half of the country would want to return back to secularism,they definitely don't trust the military to do any better cause they don't have a trusted military chief to rally behind. |

Amoto94: In the past islam was spread by killing dominating and raping women but that cannot happen in a world of social media facebook and people are aware of what is happening. Islam in Nigeria was spread by two main jihadists Elkanemi and Usman Dan fodio and they are no different from Abubakar Shekau and i can guarantee blood was shed. |

Oladat: I must admit, my assessment of the situation was premature. Erdogan although unpopular in some quarters enjoyed considerable support from some of his citizens and perhaps with some of them recounting their experience with past military regimes, were not going to put up with another. Erdogan lives to fight another day. The seeds of discord however have been sown and Erdogan in his country's best interest has to scale back from his excesses lest his country plunge into the same type of situation that his actions in Syria has contributed to. 1 Like |

Turkey: Let's put it this way... If it was a real coup, Turkey is in real trouble and is falling apart. If Erdogan is so desperately clinging to power that he needs to stage a "fake" coup against himself, Turkey is in real trouble and is falling apart. If the US is trying to strong-arm Erdogan back toward his suicide mission, Turkey is in real trouble and is falling apart. If the US has decided to liquidate their man in Ankara, Turkey is in real trouble and is falling apart. Turkey is in real trouble and is falling apart. |

Didn't they realize that this isn't the 80s or 90s where you focus on the TV and radio stations alone whilst forgetting that this magical thing called the Internet and social media exists?
