SA is part of BRICS. So, it would be hard for them rather they choose to abstain.

sagitariusbaby:
A country as big as India shouldn't be neutral in matters like this, South Africa should ditch that neutral nonsense like Nigeria if Africa must be taken seriously in international affairs. The world needs to know where we stand in critical matters like this.

SA is also being hypocritic here; they've been antagonising Israel over Palestine why not also voice out against Russia over this senseless invation of a sovereign country

tjfulloption:
Abeg me too wan fight for Ukraine, if I catch that boy called Putin, I go beat that Putin of boy and put him in a state of pity. I rest my case
Click like if you want to go to Ukraine and click share if you want to go to Russia.

You wan beat a black belt.

There is absolutely no justification for the Ukranian invasion by russia and putting people in harms way without all diplomatic channels fully exhausted! And putin must pay!!!

tamdun:
Majority of those that voted against Russia would have preferred to be neutral but they are scared of the bully..

they told you that ?

JosephXavier:
Africans are hypocrites

What was given to Libya for US invading them

Nigeria that calls itself Giant of Africa is the worst of them all

Maybe they are the giants of loan seeking

The only thing Libya got from Nigeria is accusing the Fulani herdsmen terrorising Nigeria to be displaced militias from Libya

This is slavery mentality and I kick against it

Nigeria cant even stand on its own,in international politice.just dey neutral no,u wan cause enemity,same nigeria betrayed libya.

Cele777:

Now I know how dumb Nigerians are.
How can you be supporting the racist West and �� usa against Russia

Russia has nothing to offer the world but bombs, Nukes and threats of war.
Russia is finished. A country led by a dictatorship isn’t exactly an exemplary state. Guess what Libya, Syria and many African countries have in common with Russia? A dictatorship!

Some of them will want to join the war to get juicy offer.

pyro62:
Because they have blue eyes and blond hairs. Are they the first country to experience crises? RACISM

and they are intelligent,they are not from a 3rd world country or war ravaged country like libya. As if no be them spoil libya. Racism.

Jokerman:


Oga US did not invade Libya... stop spreading misinformation

You are correct, The UN security council voted for No fly zone over libya and the US implemented it. Libya issue was a civil uprising Les by Libyans

alphabbey1:
Ukraine government are just making the maximum possible profit from this war .... The war is happening on your own soil, not a neutral ground, Citizens are dying, your key infrastructures are being blown everyday, for a war you fully know you can't win, yet you keep collecting donation all around the world, only you don release btc wallet, dot wallet, etherum wallet, and now made another airdrop.... And other Europe countries keep fuelling the war by continuous supply of ammunitions and money.... They never want the war to end. They just want to keep Russia busy...

Only Netflix people will think America are the Saint here and Russia is the evil guy........ For freaking 8 years, Ukraine government have been bombing its own people that already broke away from the country and now have there own republic, you signed agreement to let those people live in peace but keep breaking the agreement every Damm single day......

Nigeria is stupid always doing clowing The Nigerian government that is committing genocide, impoverishing the people.

Nigeria is the global capital of Poverties

Current government are just anywhere belle face, once US says do this they will follow, one day they will get to understand the ripple effects of not being serious about developing their country instead of completely relying on international aids and loan to push their economy, Nigeria don’t have its own voice at the international level they always follow suits of what is suggested by the US and Europe.

NaiJa like anything Foreign !!! Abeg ! Make Dem just give them Visa to SAMBISA

Topmaike007:
how did the rest of the world reacted when Libya was invaded and a sitting president was killed? slave mentality don finish una for Nigeria

Libya was a freaking dictatorship led state. Ghaddaffi turned the country to his personal property and commenced killing his own people when they revolted. Libyans revolted against his dictatorship courtesy of the Arab spring and this had nothing to do with NATO. How was Libya invaded? Ghadaffi brought mercenaries to kill his own people. Lol

The world is international

This is the end of Ajaokuta Steel Company

For years now most tech knw transfer have been btw us and russia and china,even our financial liveline to,common weapons usa no even wan sale give us. Dem don dey play us like drumstick now,usa wey dey even sanction us and oda african countries.

Nigeria should have aired on the side of caution. What is the fate of Ajaokuta still and many other bilateral relationships between Nigeria and Russia? Our usual posture of neutrality on issues between the USA and others would have been preferred.

zenensky:
we should maintain our non-alignment policy, we cannot be operating a foreign policy that is easily influenced.

I hope wen France go invade Nigeria over Francophone countries' issues, it would be nice for the world to abstain!

Honestly, I really don’t think we have competent folks in the diplomatic sector. Don’t our government know that this is a fight between Euroasia and the EuroAtlantic group? Why are we raising our hand in support of one group? Why not abstain? Why get tangled in a power struggle that bears no benefit to us as a nation but rather detrimental when we support one group against another. WE ARE JUST NOT GOOD AT DISCERNING WHAT IS GOOD FOR US AS A NATION. Are we so hardwired not think strategically?

If Euroasia wins this battle, won’t this vote affect our relationship with the nations in this group?

Many clever nations in Africa abstained from this vote including Zimbabwe.

Did Africa request a UN general assembly vote when the EuroAtlantic grouping bombed the crap out of Libya?

Did we even protest this destruction of Libya that has strewn arms around the Sahel? We are suffering the consequences of this war in the form of banditry along Nigeria-niger axis, ISWAP invasion of the north east, and BOKO HaRam resurgence.

tunjijones:
Nigeria is supposed to remain neutral.

These our leaders no get sense.

My dear our leaders are only interested in the cash that will follow..they will not support wen nothing is coming from it.

Nigeria should have mind her business,smh.

Mumusaphire:
do u know funniest thing sir, if they give them Russia and USA visa at same time and ask them to chose, %95 of them hating USA will chose USA.

Russian wealth belongs to them, while USA's wealth is a collective wealth of the world, if you don't understand, that means you are not qualified to argue with me, rather research more.

MadamExcellency:


Stop this nonsense. Libya President was busy massacring her citizens and to some extent commiting genocide because they asked for regime change.

Even the Israelites in the Bible rejected God and Samuel and demanded for a King. Notwithstanding being displeased, God gave them a king they desired without destroying them like Qadaffi did.

So you are not aware that the so called revolt was planned and executed in the US?

You lots have a whole lot to learn.
See Libya now and compare it with before.

US should learn to stay on their lane and respect others.

You're entitled to your opinion but then the deal has been done. Nigeria cannot just be neither here nor there in world event. We have to take a stand, and our leaders just did that.

If North Korea is on Russia side, then we ve got problems.

If they are not in good terms with china they will not but if they are in good terms with china they will be on Russia side and that will be a prob as u said..

Wawelexy:
If North Korea is on Russia side, then we ve got problems.

It shouldn’t be surprising that North Korea is on Russia’s side. Both countries are not different from each other.

Both are being ruled by dictators
Both wants to annex other countries by force (North is trying to take South)
Both hates the west
Both so much believe in their nuclear weapons
Both are stubborn and ruthless.


So tell me how they won’t support each other.

But the truth is, both will fail woefully in their quest to disrupt world peace!
