Zionmdde:They are all the same - people after their pickets and personal ambitions. Its never because of the masses. Hummnn. Nigerian politicians. |
The UK will buy at least 12 F-35 stealth jets that can carry nuclear warheads in the most significant strengthening of its nuclear capability in a generation, the government has said. Sir Keir Starmer told a summit of NATO allies in The Hague that the new squadron will join an alliance mission that can be armed with US nuclear weapons. The dramatic move will doubtless draw condemnation and concern from Russia and China. But it comes at a time of growing global insecurity - and as the prime minister and his European and Canadian counterparts scramble to convince Donald Trump they are serious about bolstering their ability to defend Europe, instead of overly relying on the US. The US president, a long-standing NATO sceptic, raised questions about whether he would uphold the alliance's founding Article 5 principle - that an attack on one is an attack on all - before he even arrived in the Dutch city last night. An urgent need to keep Mr Trump on side has prompted NATO allies to agree to increase spending on defence and national resilience to a new target of 5% of GDP by 2035. As part of this push to rearm, Sir Keir will give the Royal Air Force the ability to carry airborne nuclear warheads for the first time since the 1990s. "In an era of radical uncertainty we can no longer take peace for granted," he said. "These F-35 dual capable aircraft will herald a new era for our world-leading Royal Air Force and deter hostile threats that threaten the UK and our allies. "The UK's commitment to NATO is unquestionable, as is the alliance's contribution to keeping the UK safe and secure, but we must all step up to protect the Euro-Atlantic area for generations to come." It was not immediately clear when the F-35 jets would be bought or how much they will cost, but the new squadron will be part of a NATO-led nuclear deterrence mission. That is in contrast to the UK's national nuclear deterrence, based on a fleet of four nuclear-armed submarines, though they too are used to defend the whole of the alliance. Mark Rutte, the head of NATO, applauded the plan - saying: "The UK has declared its nuclear deterrent to NATO for many decades, and I strongly welcome today's announcement that the UK will now also join NATO's nuclear mission and procure the F-35A. "This is yet another robust British contribution to NATO." Aircraft operated by a small number of NATO countries, including Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, are cleared to carry US-provided nuclear weapons in a war. The RAF and the Royal Navy already operate F-35B jets that can fly off Britain's two aircraft carriers, but they are not equipped to drop nuclear warheads. The new planes will be the F-35A variant, operated by the air force, that take off from land but can fly further and be armed with nuclear or conventional weapons. The government said they would all be based together at RAF Marham in Norfolk The government has long planned to purchase a total of 138 F-35 aircraft, but has so far only acquired around three dozen - seven years since the first jets entered service. The decision to purchase 12 of the A-variant does not mean extra aircraft. It just means a diversification in the fleet - something the RAF has long been pushing for - though it's a decision some in the Royal Navy have long pushed back against, believing it would reduce even further the number of the B-version that operate from their carriers. https://news.sky.com/story/uk-to-buy-f-35-stealth-jets-that-can-carry-us-nuclear-warheads-as-global-insecurity-grows-13388199 |
Thank God |
Aatami:Hello sir/ma, in summary, you have allowed the situation around you to overwhelm you, and that's why you ve lost hope. Remedy: Give your life to Jesus and all lost hopes will be restored. You will give birth to children and you will not lack the provision to take care of them |
politicity:How does this affect the common man? Government, politicians and organizers of this protest are all the same. Business men everywhere. Selfish people |
Kobicove:This is the ultimate summary of the whole rivers scenario. 100℅ unbiased. Why accept a gift from the devil and refuse to do his bidding, now forming holier than thou. The foundation of Fubara emergence as the Governor is faulty, so he has no ground, moral or otherwise to claim innocence. Its their dirty game and innocent Nigerians should let them enjoy it. Stop taking sides pls. |
TruthsFM:Man of God, pls focus on your assignment. Politicians are all the same. Honestly, this pastor has no business chuking mouth in politician matter because before you know it they will drag him in the mud. Fubara is not in any way innocent too. None of us was there when they were cooking what they cooked, so I dont know why a pastor will want to embarrass himself by taking sides when two wicked politicians fight. Fubara got the seat for free but some people paid the price and if Fubara thinks it will be easy to do without those people that put him so cheaply, then he must be a joker. What on earth was Fubara thinking when everybody was doing the dirty job for him. So Pastor, pls respect the grace of God and do not take sides. The best anyone can do is to stay neutral and appeal to both sides to give peace a chance. |
Trump is Trump, very original. |
Godblessme1:Local chest beater, you boast of war like say you feel lead war. Typical of cowards. Leave politics for politicians because they are all the same. |
Abagworo:Hummmmnnnn. Just because you feel you must type something |
That is a father there doing his role. May God bless fathers all over the world that perform their duties in the lives of their children. |
...Im ending 2024 with Jesus and forever I will be with Jesus, my Lord and Saviour |
lendahand:Wha a summary of this current generation! Brains indeed getting emptier |
God1000:Amen, in Jesus name. |
James 4:4 You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. By their fruits we shall know them.. That guy is not born again, let alone to be called a pastor. When you see them yoking with unbelievers it shows where they belong. But I believe God can still save them if they all repent |
Northern Nigeria is so backward! Reason why all these banditry thrive over there. |

NoIgboSoundTueh:Who is this animal for heaven sake? Which Bible verse supports homosexuality? Must you comment on every issue on NL? |
Righthussle:Wao! Who is this guy? Above statement is too loaded. Perfectly said. |
BeeBeeOoh:Nice! The Church is marching on... |
Kaybaba5:Tithe remains a valid Biblica way to honor God almighty. Only overemphasizing on Tithe at the expense, of Justice, Mercy & Faithfulness Matthew 23:23 is what Jesus rebuked the Pharisees about. Pastor Adeboye only apologized in that clipon the statement that Tithing is a condition to make heaven. He never said that Tithing is not Biblical. If you are a child of God, honor Him by paying tithes, even greater percentage of your earnings is encouraged. Tithing on its own remains biblical. |
Fisiryorh:You should rest instead bro. He just spoke the 100℅ truth. Still, weldone to the guy giving to support kingdom work. |
jesusjnr2020:I take anyone involved in such practice as not knowing christ or in backsliding state. Best word to describe them is FAKE. They should be exposed and disgraced and that's what God is doing by Himself using VDM. The heart of men indeed is desperately wicked... |
This is purely God at work. God is putting to shame false prophets who refuse to heed divine warning. Prophecy has gone forth that many secrets will come to open all over the world. Wisdom teaches that other men of God that do things contrary to the Bible should repent or face similar fate. Such will be shamefully exposed. |
ERockson:Shut up! That statement is part of the protest. It carries the tone of annoyance from oppressed citizens. What is your comment to the heartless APC govt using every avenue to threaten citizens not to participate in lawful protest. If you cant join the protest, then you should wish those going out well. |
obiscranum:Pls beg your mother to honestly disclose to you who your genuine father is. Very important! |
ARISHEM:How pls? |
LESSON Whatever you will give or do in the house of God that will make you feel you can not be disciplined when you err, pls keep it or dont do it. God always provides for His own course. His suspension proved to me that RCCG is still a living church. His resignation just proved the people right on the fact that the lavish birthday is a of sign of lack of empathy. It shows this man is not meek. A genuine pastor should be in subjection to authority. I sincerely believe he was suspended for not showing remorse when he was being questioned on the birthday nature and timing. Again, I now believe RCCG has not lost it when it comes to church leadership discipline, a key component of running godly ministries. |
Omoawoke:The truth must be spoken always! It is not running your country down bro. Maybe it will put the bad leaders on their toes to do the right things. |
helinues:If you live in Nigeria, you can not trust our uniform men or any government agency when it cones to allegation of bribery. Na their way. At every slightest opportunity 99% of our officers would demand bribe and if not given could ensure your case worsens by any crook means. |
ArcSEMPECJ:Oga you are being too sentimental and emotional here. You make it look like Fubara himself is a saint. How can a man fight the same system that produced you successfully without great wisdom. Fubara is as dirty as Wike himself and he is only trying to outshine his master using the backdoor. Whatever Wike demanded from Fubara is not new to them both and Fubara never kicked against such practice before he became the Governor. Im not supporting either of them though. Fubara ought to have turned down the offer to be the Governor in the first place. Why do you think Tinubu won APC primary and not the siting VP Osinbajo? Systems are very powerful and its not easy to change them in drastic manner especially from inside. That is the hard truth. If Fubara wanted to effect any major shift in system modu operandi he needs to be very calculative and its obvious he has not been strategic at all. evel. So far, he is a traitor and I say this not because I support Wike. |
