It's not the population that wins wars,it's the the country with morden sophisticated weapons that will come victorious.

Its just wishful thinking that there is a country now who doesn't have access to the so called sophisticated weapons especially when they have been saving asses all over Africa fighting other people s war, and to undermine a higher number of opponent before going to war is just suicide because by the time the greater army are through with the smaller ones they will still be standing strong, ask military personnel in your country,

Imagine because of importation, our industry remains a midget, Aba textile mills, Ikeja textile mills, Bata, etc are some of the victims of this imported goods,

its just the same as taking food out of the mouth of your brother anytime we import foreign goods we can produce here, so many families rendered poor when their breadwinner is retrenched due to company fold up, we enrich outsiders at our own expense, we are like their sales officers, we mop up our money and hand it over to them while our farmers and other producers are forced to remain poor and small,

Pray there is no conventional war between your country and Nigeria. By the time the battle hardened and tested men and women of Nigerian military are done with your sissies in khaki, you won't be able to recognise the map of your country again.

Your country is already divided to stand with one voice. Too much suspicion there.....So it will be a work over for other African countries.
There's only one way to find out how united Nigerians are...

The problem with Nigeria the Citizens are stuck illiterate all they have is a big mouth with no brain that is how most of my Nigerian people are. Is the border closure prices in Benin Republic togo and Ghana have reduced while prices in Nigeria have increased even inflation is increasing in Nigeria. So who is the border closure really affecting the Nigerian people are suffering more because of the high prices than any other African. Also in Cameroon prices are beginning to fall because of the border closure. Nigeria's problem is the people are stuck illiterate we believe we can do everything ourselves when we have nothing human development index where rank 155 in the world. Performance and achievement where is 148 in the world. Empty vessels make the most noise. Go to sambisa Forest Nigerian soldiers are killing themselves for food and pure water which they don't have the basics
See an illiterate calling people illiterates. Go and learn the basics of English language and back to comment. Mumu.

This is where we need to be patriotic. This have a positive impact in our economic aspects. It gives way for strong currency and promote our GDP.

I hear you...

I was just trying to show that your analysis is flawed if you think having more military personnel automatically gives a country the upper hand to win a war.Russia's population is 3x less than your own,does that mean you can wipe them out? with those deadly morden weapons they have?

We are weak yes we are
We are the poorest nation in the world we accept it.

We've got within our borders the deadliest terrorist group in the world. I guess you av'nt heard of herds men Fulani cattle rearers who go about killing farmers.

We are the list developed in Africa
Undisputed

Our leaders our the most corrupt

We posses the highest number of drug dealer drug addict and prostitutes we ain't denying it

Our educational system is poorest in W. Africa. Yes it true

In infrastructure we next to the last in the world


Medically we are no where to be found among top 100 in the world we agree

To all these weaknesses and to many more you ever think of
I say yes we posses them.

But we have survived and we push still through them all
with all these difficulties and challenges we are always and are ready still to run to the rescue of any African country that calls to us.


And your country has non of these weaknesses your citizens are all gainfully employed
All tribes in your country have never fought each other before
All your government officials since your country's Independence has been transparent and honest
There has never been fuel/food scarcity in
Your country
Everything good has always been sufficient

Whenever your country experiences and survive all these challenges
You can come back and talk to me about who is weak and who is strong.

Untill then hold your peace

You have to know most Nigerians are illiterate and illiterate can say anything. Tomorrow they will tell us that Nigeria fought all the African countries and won. All Nigeria is the giant of Africa when in reality it is the giant of poverty. If you look at South Africa and the countries which helped South Africa to get independence Mozambique Zimbabwe these two countries are the ones which lost a lot of soldiers to the apartheid wall where they were being bomb by South African bomber from the air. How many Nigerian soldiers died to make South Africa free


They should Av died first before you see that they did thier best

Ungrateful benighted Imp.

Its just logical that if an army has superior weapon but lesser number it will take them longer time to wipe out the army with the greater number of personnel whereas the little damage their low quality weapon wreck on the little army with the superior weapon will be far reaching because the higher population army will always dispatch more troops until they deceminate the other smaller army, that was why we still have Jews today and Adolf Hitler had to run despite he had all the means to achieve his objective, and in this modern era , accessibility to sophisticated weaponry is not difficult when you have the means

We Nigerians are illiterate stupid and lazy we cannot feed ourselves now we want other African countries to suffer because of are laziness what we know how to do in Nigeria vote for a criminal. All the countries are making money we are making noise

A man which cannot build his house cannot
build another man's house. A man which can achieve nothing empty vessels. All Nigerians believe we are at the centre of Africa when they only think Nigeria produces is criminals. Take a trip to any country in the world and say you are a Nigerian they will tell you you are a criminal


If you believe you are a criminal, I absolutely don't have a problem with but for you to stereotype all Nigerian's as criminals doesn't make any sense. I'm a proud Nigerian
