France have always been a war mongering nation. The french are the ones who defined wars thus the reason we have majority of military ranks and terms that are french. Those dictatorship they leveraged on in Africa is true but we must also realize Africans have very weak will power. I am sorry to say this, it's how europeans and majority of the world view Africa. A continent with leaders who don't care, look at all the communist lead uprising African nation used in freeing themselves from Colonia rule. All of them amounted to nothing, because at the end the Savior ended turning up to be a dictator. What you Africans fail to realize is that everyone have a price, so it's always up the leadership to leverage this avenue to benefit their people. Saddam was a dictator and western Ally but when he started making open threat to the royals across the Arab nation, he turned enemy. The same thing with Iran, when the royal family was overthrown by the revolution, they turned enemy because you now have an extreme form of extreme islam who used power to legitimatize it's existence. Putting them on collision course with the west since Israel was now in their full scope.

So when I hear Africans talk like it's a clear cut NATO entering a sovereign a nation and stamping it's authority, I wonder where the ability to reason is. America presence in the middle east is a form of guns for hire. Whereby the royals across all Arab nations use the USA military might in exchange for oil.
To point to evidence Just years back, Iran states Bahrain was a region that belonged to them. It's a trend that will be cascading and will engulf the world with war.

African leaders are the ones keeping Africa poor. The Arabs took advantage with resources they had and struck a deal with the west, which is the development we are currently observing. While Africa have seen leaders who accumulate wealth at the expense of the nation and then ending up stashing it outside.

That is an unrefutable fact, africàns are where they are because they can't fight for themselves.

Almost every country has been at the same situation Africa has been in but most of them are doing well, look at china, in the 1980s Nigeria had a larger GDP than them but now they have twenty times the GDP of Nigeria. Even Korea and vitenam plagued by years of wars are doing better because they know how to work in their best interests.

Africa's problems are not just their leaders, it's the people and systematic corruption deep into their core, they start a movement but take money to shut it down.
Turkey, Russia, socialist Korea, even the US were ruled by bad government at one point in time but the people came together and organized a revolt not caring about blood she'd they achieved their goals.


But one thing is also to be noted, the borders of Africa were poorly drawn, taking Nigeria, Cameroon,South Africa or even congo for example it's too divided ethnically to function as a country, this same issue plagued the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia. And it's affecting more than 50% of African nations.
The first step for Africa is redesigning their borders, no country can work without some sort of nationality and similar ethnic background if not it would end in a brutal dictatorship.

Africa is its own problem, corruption, ethnicity and religious divide has eaten the continent to its core and this ideology is passed on to their children and generation making it hard for any meaningful progress. Coupled with bad unqualified leaders, this makes me feel they need to be invaded and re educated to even begin to attempt nation building.l, because it's seems to me that colonial and freshly independent Africa, exempting the brutal racism and torture was better in terms of standard of living

You are correct about the borders, I have studied Africa for a while and noticed how diverse the continent is. I was on a trip to sokoto north western Nigeria and I saw a good number of Northerners that spoke Libyan dialect of Arabic and some Arab looking people in a remote village. I also wondered how Nigeria as a whole have managed itself. Although one bonding Factor is the religion aspect. I say this because my wife complaints about certain tribes, brings back history and other things but the irony is that her pastor is from that tribe. So because of that her anger ends with just ranting, which I find funny. My country have Russia population, which was forced on us because of Bolsheviks movement. But we happy we join NATO because we would have been part of the salami slice military doctrine of Russia.
So yes people that share the same identity and culture is very important. It is what is been currently exploited by Russia in the east European region. Just the way European powers did in Africa during colonial period.

Hello guys! No much story.
Life in Russia is going on smoothly. You can check my old post here on Nairaland about life in Russia.
.
Racism is at Zero level
The love for black people is awesome!
They invite us to participate in movies and advertisements all the time. This is the kind of white man's land where any foreigner can be loved.
.
.
However, my post for today is about something different grin grin
I went on excursion to a paramilitary camp in Yakutsk, Russia, (coldest city in the world) to make some video documentaries about some vintage Russian tanks they have there. (I am still editing those documentaries)
.
However, at the end of my shooting (the main video) I decided to do something crazy. Walk up to Russian military (A general and a field soldier). I asked the Russian General to say hello to Nigeria and he gladly did it even with a salute!


I asked the soldier boy to say hello to my favourite Nairalander ( falseprophet1 ). (His funny false prophecies always make my day! One of the reasons why Nairaland is still so much fun for me grin grin) He understands English to some extent, so he bursted out laughing realizing that someone's name is 'falseprophet' grin grin
.
.
I am hoping falseprophet1 will find this post. I added a few pictures of myself with some Russian girls I play table tennis with at my dormitory every night. Falseprophet1 please prophecy into my life abeg grin grin grin grin

Make dem no hype Russia for you make u no go regret am.
I have lived in Russia for 5 years and other CIS countries like Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus and Kazakhstan spending atleast 1 year in each of their capital cities.
Apart from cheap university fees, cheap accomodation and transport fees eventhough their educational standards are high, there is nothing else Russia or Eastern European countries can offer to any African.
Na yahoo boys and 419 full there since from time immemorial.
Forget all those OP washing of plates and driving of trucks salary wey him dey tell you.
There is no work for a black man in the whole of Russia even boy boy work no dey for you.
See all these other countries named above even right to Afghan border which is Tajikistan, all their citizens di rush Russia like El Salvadorians di rush USA.
U know how many Tajiks, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Azeris, Armenians, Turkmen dey Russia di find jobs wey their language of birth na Russia.
Russia get border with more than 10 countries, the biggest country on earth by landmass and located in 2 continents.
U wan leave go learn Russian before you get work?
OP you lie, you no fit learn Russian language in 6 months.
If you smart na 1 year.
The only way you fit learn Russian in 6 months na to get problem dem sentence you 6 months prison, b4 u comot you go learn Russian well and na their u go get connect.
Nigerians wey don go prison na dem di make am for Russia.
OP don tell you about skinheads?

Anything Eastern Europe, Russia and those countries for their back wey no dey EU na just Africa continue.
You never yet go abroad.
If u wan go Russia, hold your money for upkeep and accomodation till you finish study.
Hold money even 4 your return flight ticket.
No job for you.
The trend since few years ago now na say when u make mistake go countries like Russia and dem start regret am, dem go just start advertisement with beautiful city scenery photos and hyping huge salaries saying come to Russia so that any interested party go fit drop something for dem in the course of processing their documents for admission process or visa process.
That something wey u go drop go be na im salary that cuz work no dey.
After visa and flight expenses, na when you arrive, you sef go see things for yourself and you sef go open your own online travelling agency for bring people to Russia for say make u see small thing chop.
Na 419 and mafia full that area.
I be vory so I know wetin I dey talk.

Many Nigerians wey no know yahoo don frustrate for there.
If Hushpuppi be di stay for Russia, e for di walk free like Snowden.
I know people wey don theif money wey pass Hushpuppi own but dem dem free for Russia.

Look around your community, LGA, city and State, tell me how many people wey dem point for you say this man/woman don make am, build mansion, buy car, setup e siblings, wey d person comot na Russia, say na nurse or doctor or driver or teacher for Russia for 10-30 plus years living in Russia.

Tell me you are a west apologetic without telling me you are.
Trying to make problems in middle east more of middle east fault than Nato and US that are using there might to oppress and steal resources... No reasonable dialogue, just threat and once the sovereign nation doesn't yield, you make it disarray...

Africans should stay clear from west and lean towards Russia just like Southafrica is doing now. The west have a part in Africa current state...

I have gone through the post my husband have posted in order to give you an answer. His focus from all his mentioned is on his country and the danger Russia posses to them and misconception Africans who don't know the history of his country and the region.

We reside in Vilnius, Lithuania and also stay in Nigeria many months of the year due to work. I can boldly say the people of that country are very happy and glad to be in the EU and NATO. They have experienced economic growth and have over time developed the capacity to defend themselves.

How Nigerians defend evil is not surprising because after all the tribal divide within Nigeria have sown the seed of hate. Assuming Lithuania wasn't part of NATO, they would have suffered the same faith as Ukraine. But I am happy they are and I can happily live peaceful with my husband and kids in Vilnius.

You scream Western propaganda when in fact the person you defend is worst off and the chronic propagandist. My advice to most of you on here is to travel out and experience people and their culture close up.

Everyone talks about western hypocrisy towards Africa, now the question is how can they help when the leaders are not civil enough to do the right thing? How can the west help when the leaders embezzle billions and keep embezzling billions? Africans are real hypocrites and should look themselves in the mirror.

You think the Russians and the Chinese respects you? Go to institutions in europe and including Russia and see how they use Africa continent and the form of leadership as bad examples. How democracy failed and how communism failed and how socialism failed.

They are all in awe as to how a continent with so much people and resources can be so so docile and manipulated. As a guest lecturer in saint Petersburg 4 years back, I was asked by a student this question
if every form of government have failed in Africa, won't it be fair to say they are dead weight to the global system? When I asked for further explanation, he said failed government means failed system, failed country means high poverty which leads to diseases and immigration. Immigration brings diseases and failed mindset. Therefore posing threats to a stable and advanced civilization.

That question showed me what the typical white man thinks about you and your continent. My husband is an exception because he conducted more humanity projects than all the leaders of Africa put together. Regardless of Russia or west, they all have Darwin natural selection principles as their core beliefs about Africa. The Chinese coming in are also seeing the same, failed mindset and failed people. So they recycle what others have done.

So keep the path of fighting over who's pushing propaganda and who's the lesser devil.

Does the UK practise real democracy? When was the last time the people of UK directly elected a PM or their King/Queen? Sit there and be glorifying a particular leadership style. Historical background determines the type of governance that nations adopt, not some foisted alien suggestions that have created chaos all over Africa.

GOD Almighty Himself does not even recognize democracy as the ideal system for national administrations. Democracy is expensive, time-wasting and breeds rebellion where the practitioners have no historical and cultural affiliations to it.

Show me one pre-colonial African society where leaders emerged through voting. Are you telling me those ancient African societies were disorganized before the colonialists invaded? Before you rush to reply me, note that democracy and development do not mean the same thing. China is not a democracy. Qatar is not a democracy. UAE is not. Are these aboved mentioned nations developed? This should help you understand that democracy does not necessarily bring development.

The money Nigeria has wasted on conducting elections could lift tens of millions out of poverty if it was made available to rising entrepreneurs. Abeg I nor fit explain again jare. sad

If I may add, you think if huge churches like Winners Chapel, RCCG and others practised democracy they would be as massive as they are today. Adeboye singlehandedly decides the policy of RCCG irrespective of what members think. Oyedepo can wake up and tell you he wants to build another mega auditorium like the Ark project. Democracy would have crippled these plans. Now imagine the crises these churches would have if they conducted elections to elect a new GO every four years.

How are Christian Association of Nigeria and Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria today? A shadow of themselves because they fight over policy direction and election every now and then. Democracy will not work everywhere because of cultural history.

It is this same democracy shit the West are imposing on marriages today. What's the outcome? Countless number of divorce cases.

You made very salient points! 👏

Even in the study of leadership styles, it’s always mentioned in the concluding parts that no one leadership style is the best; and that’s why good leaders use a mix of all styles.

Talking about the church, you just reminded me of my darling AGC and how democracy wrecked her… 😢

Of a truth, what works for one may destroy another…

Oh! Russia.. Quite Unfortunate, I was Unlucky, Before USSR was Dissolved I had the Opportunity to Study Russian Language at the Institute of Russian Language Organised by the USSR Embassy then, It was Located at Bishop Oluwole then. Via Barbeach. Victoria Island.

I was the best Students then.

A Quiz Competition concerning USSR was Organised and I Won ,I was Presented a Game of Chess.

As at then there was a Plan by USSR to grant the 5 best Language Students Study Scholarship then to USSR, Our Study Director of Studies Mr Sterelenikov came with the Unfortunate News that USSR IS BREAKING UP and thus would affects the Scholarship Program because the Whole USSR was in Charge but now that the Union is Breaking up, They are Sorry.

That really Dashed My Hope, I do Transport myself all the way from ITIRE IKATE area then to VIctoria Island, Sometimes I would even Walk to CMS before I would take bus to VI, Omo I suffer.

By Now Only God Knows I would have been a successful man in Russia.

But it is Well.. I still dey Naija.. Wallowing in Serious Poverty...


Strasfutie on Russian Language ... To all it means How are You..

That church will never be the same again as long as they continue to choose their leader through democratic voting system. I think they have several factions now and unending court cases. It's a mess what democracy is causing them.

Look at the way China is rising at the speed of light. Now imagine if it conducted elections every now and then across the board. Before you know it, majority will elect one fool and the fool will ruin the great accomplishments of his predecessors. This is what we face in Africa today. Majority come together to elect nonentities everywhere.

We never start for Africa. grin

After visa and flight expenses, na when you arrive, you sef go see things for yourself and you sef go open your own online travelling agency for bring people to Russia for say make u see small thing chop.

If Hushpuppi be di stay for Russia, e for di walk free like Snowden.

The love for black people is awesome!
They invite us to participate in movies and advertisements all the time. This is the kind of white man's land where any foreigner can be loved.

I have gone through the post my husband have posted in order to give you an answer. His focus from all his mentioned is on his country and the danger Russia posses to them and misconception Africans who don't know the history of his country and the region.

We reside in Vilnius, Lithuania and also stay in Nigeria many months of the year due to work. I can boldly say the people of that country are very happy and glad to be in the EU and NATO. They have experienced economic growth and have over time developed the capacity to defend themselves.

How Nigerians defend evil is not surprising because after all the tribal divide within Nigeria have sown the seed of hate. Assuming Lithuania wasn't part of NATO, they would have suffered the same faith as Ukraine. But I am happy they are and I can happily live peaceful with my husband and kids in Vilnius.

You scream Western propaganda when in fact the person you defend is worst off and the chronic propagandist. My advice to most of you on here is to travel out and experience people and their culture close up.

Everyone talks about western hypocrisy towards Africa, now the question is how can they help when the leaders are not civil enough to do the right thing? How can the west help when the leaders embezzle billions and keep embezzling billions? Africans are real hypocrites and should look themselves in the mirror.

You think the Russians and the Chinese respects you? Go to institutions in europe and including Russia and see how they use Africa continent and the form of leadership as bad examples. How democracy failed and how communism failed and how socialism failed.

They are all in awe as to how a continent with so much people and resources can be so so docile and manipulated. As a guest lecturer in saint Petersburg 4 years back, I was asked by a student this question
if every form of government have failed in Africa, won't it be fair to say they are dead weight to the global system? When I asked for further explanation, he said failed government means failed system, failed country means high poverty which leads to diseases and immigration. Immigration brings diseases and failed mindset. Therefore posing threats to a stable and advanced civilization.

That question showed me what the typical white man thinks about you and your continent. My husband is an exception because he conducted more humanity projects than all the leaders of Africa put together. Regardless of Russia or west, they all have Darwin natural selection principles as their core beliefs about Africa. The Chinese coming in are also seeing the same, failed mindset and failed people. So they recycle what others have done.

So keep the path of fighting over who's pushing propaganda and who's the lesser devil.

It's only you and your region Russia showed shege, this is why you hate Russia... Just as the west showed India, and Africa shege and the region also feel same hate... Russia did Africa no wrong, and its ridiculous for the west to think them of all region can talk its way into making Africans hate there greatest enemy....
.
Your whole write up is just dedicated to paint Africa with the most negative brush... Any white man that sees this your post will think everyone in Africa live under bridge and ride bicycle all there lives. You want Africa to shift more support to the region that terrorised, tortured and subjected its people to slavery ? Just like that ? Just as your husband said, the west should fully be blamed for Nigeria failed political system for joining three tribes that shouldn't have been joined together...
