Hmm but Romanian women too dey steal oooh
I too fear them cheesy cheesy cheesy

Don't buy into the stereotype please.

After they joined EU, the poorer Romanians were the first to jump into migration train and left the country for greener pastures.

So on a per capita basis, you're more likely to meet Romanian criminals abroad than in Romania. Even at that, it is reducing drastically. The country is well-organised, peaceful, with a bright future.

โšกIsrael threatens Ireland and Norway

Israeli Foreign Minister:

"Today I am sending a strong message to Ireland and Norway that Israel will not silently ignore this issue (by announcing recognition of a Palestinian state).

I have just ordered the Israeli ambassadors from Dublin and Oslo to be returned to Israel for urgent consultations in Jerusalem.

The hasty move by both countries will have other serious consequences. If Spain follows through on its intention to recognize a Palestinian state, a similar step will be taken against it."

I don't have a problem with what you said,
My problem is that you ascribed terrorism in Africa to the USA

And wrongly you also stated that the USA blocked weapons to the Nigeria military because of LGBTQ rights.


So why did the gay rights bill come at that same time? Coincidence?

If you def didn't experience Abacha regime...I bet. We did and it was bad...if the military were the ones ruling, none of you guys here criticizing the govt would dream of it.


All our problems from the beginning was caused by the military...heck even the 1999 fraud constitution was drafted by same military ain't that interesting undecided and since 1999 the presidents who truly had their rule were ex military...infact majority of our so called civilian govt were actually ex military.




Yet most of what you call solid infrastructure in Nigeria were built by them.

Gaddafi and some other notable names all around the world weren't democratic, but you'd pick them 10x over any democracy in Africa.

If you're asked to list 10 bad things Abacha did, you'll struggle.

Then compare whichever ones you're able to list to what we've faced in the so called democratic dispensation. Bro democracy which we practice right now is a ruse.

All the time you waste on Putin and hamas, you could have put it to greater use for the emancipation of your people in eastern Nigeria.
I have not seen any single sensitisation or you trying to promote the struggles of your people.
Instead you are here worried about Putin who don't give a damm about you nor you'd struggles.
I have attended some meetings here based on the affiliation of my GF, we see young Igbo guys and girls communing and trying to see how they should contribute their own little quota to the struggle.

I wish una well o

If by contribution you mean funding ESN, then shame on them for funding insecurity in SE. Let them lobby their NA reps to start pushing for restructuring at best but I can tell you for free SE politicians want the status quo to remain.

democracy is still not for Africa ... Some of this western nations don't even practice democracy. Military is still a better rule of government in Africa than democracy but the west will never support it they will rather destabilize that country.
Because you hear military rule you think people are being oppressed? That's a very big lie. A military rule will strengthen the country which will be the foundation on which democracy will be built on besides military rule will reduce corruption to some extent

Same people that are Happy that some countries have choose foolishly to recognise Palestine are the same people what would tell you Taiwan is not state,

Over a 12 Nations recognised Taiwan as an independent state, but dose it make it one in China eye's
Is Taiwan part of the UN??

Will it ever be passed by a UN resolution to make Palestine a state? The answer is no the USA will always veto such rubbish.

As long as there is a Jewish state of isreal there will never be a Palestine state.

Even your beloved United States does not recognize Taiwan as a state.

Read up the history of the Chinese civil war to understand how Taiwan was split from China.

Once you're done with that, read up about how Taiwan was recognized as a state (officially as the Republic of China and unofficially as China) while China was not even recognized as "China" but as the the People's Republic of China or PRC for short.

Educate yourself and stop being a nuisance to yourself.
