Politics / Re: Niger: ECOWAS Won’t Allow Anyone To Insincerely Buy Time, Tinubu Tells US Envoy by adebayo987: 8:24am On Aug 27, 2023
id911:
ebola should invade Niger and allow us to hear word. America was thinking it would be easy in Afghanistan but Afghans were strongly in support of the Talibans and today, after many years, we know how far. Anyone who jokes with the government the people strongly supports is a big fool.
Lol! The idea that the Afghans were in support of Taliban was a theatre show to give the US an excuse to vacate Afghanistan. US actually left Afghanistan in such a hurry without any plan because they got a solid intelligence that Russia will be invading Ukraine and tag it "special military operation" then point at the US's "Special military operation" in Afghanistan as a cover for their own in Ukraine, which of course they did at the start of the war. Not the people's support for Taliban that the media made you believe. Russia started multiplying their soldiers at the borders of Ukraine. US then evacuated Afghanistan in a hurry to avert possible invasion of Ukraine and in less than 4 months Russia still invaded Ukraine and called it Special Military Operation, same as US' Special Military Operation in Afghanistan.

Actually, the voice of the people matters but the Afghan Taliban thing wasn't the voice of the people. Also, the juntas thing in Niger is not the voice of the people as protests against the junta is suppressed while protests for them is allowed (that's not how the voice of the people works).

ECOWAS should be wise and invite the lady that gave Abacha apple. We heard the current head of Niger junta is a woman wrapper. this type of option will be better than plane crash option that would kill at least 10 passengers like in the case of former Nigeria COAS and late Wagner Group boss. So, assassination should be part of that option as there's no as no amount of words will change the minds of those short sighted juntas.

NSNO:
Oga is like you have not gone to the village recently, na those girls spoil pass. Then there is the fact say they no get shame, their low reasoning.

For me, intelligence is what I value in a lady.

Sophistication and class in a lady cannot be overemphasised. You need a lady that can stand by your side in any occasion, in any setting not those village girls.
Lol, you're confusing town girls with village girls. Town girls and village girls are almost alike because they both live in interior place but their differences is exposition to information. A village girl that is watching TV, interacting with incles and friends from the city, and using city things including going to what you may call village school, etc. is no longer a village girl but a town girl because she's now exposed to information despite living in the village.

Most villages in the south are filled with town people. If you're looking for a village girl, go to the most interior places in the North, the people that still wore leaves as clothing, and attached some kind of superstitious believe to marriage, etc.

There are actually village girls. I'm not trying to discredit the city girls but the truth is exposition to information is what builds or destroys a man or woman. In those days, women believed that sex with a man would get her pregnant. But exposure to information has taught us that there's a safe period and there's a prevention pill and there's a c0nd0m, etc. People exposed to this info but still living in a village are no longer village girls. Also, on the part of telling lies, A village girl would believe that lying to her spouse could bring down evil and curses and misfortunes on her and her union with her husband, but a city girl would know that lying is just a trick and believing that lying can harm you is if you don't defend it well, etc. so would take time to plan the lie and the defending methods, etc. The obvious difference between a village girl and town or city girl is just information.

We're saying that our forefathers were better than us today because of their high morals and decency, etc. today we have everybody fighting for attention, a lady goes as far as twerking her private areas online just to get attention, etc. all these were not present in those days, so the society was decent. But today? Haaba... village girls still exist in the North though, especially those interior norths that still wore leaves as clothing, or are just being exposed to the corruption we call "modern civilisation"

So, by village girls the op is saying, he's talking about the ideal village girls. But his mistake is the recommendation.

Quality20:
Many ppl in big and semi big cities always wish to get married to city girls who are very educated or at least enlightened and speak good English
Guy, you are about to cheat yourself. Many city girls are already prostitutes without knowing. Its far better u go to a nice decent village and marry those girls whom you see as uneducated than to settle for those coded prostitutes parading themselves all over the city speaking English even more than the oyimbo ppl themselves. Yes, agreed, some of the village girls maybe corrupt, but then they still won't be as deceptive as many of these highly educated, wise jet age girls who may even be lesbians, bisexuals,multiplesexual etc. Many men who are married to these so-called modern ladies find it so difficult to kowthe real character,personality and lifestyle of these ladies for many months or years as against village brought up ladies who lead simple lives
if you want to marry a housewife, go for village girls. If you want to marry a workmate, go for city girls. It's that simple.

You actually have some level of truth in your write up. Actually, my wife (city lady) told me some obvious lies for 12 years about herself until the lies were no more sustainable, of which one includes het age. She's 5 years older than me but she made me believe we were age mates. Lol! But I forgave her. She's my wife atfer all, so why should I trouble her? Another lie was about her past boyfriend but something happened that the guy sought to destroy our marriage by threatening her to give her money else he'd tell me something that would make me drawback from the marriage. Now, the guy doesn't know me as a person with a big heart and advanced maturity. But my wife who now knows and understands me came to me to confess all her past lives and I understood why whatever happened to her happened, so I didn't blame her as she's just a human being. Actually, this is one difference between the village girl and city girls. But now, most villages in Nigeria are now towns which equalizes city girls and them in lies.

A real village girl has real superstitious belief about marriage and would hold onto it in good and bad health to the end.

Politics / Re: Summary Of Wetin Atiku Lawyers Dey Talk For US Court by adebayo987: 5:48am On Aug 27, 2023
itsme01:
grin



Na sentiments and bitterness be the problem wey Africans get

Let's establish some facts

1: Tinubu attended Chicago State University and has an international degree unlike Atiku, and Obi who submitted just a GCE


To answer you;

7. The same Elnora D. Daniel were work for 1998 come sign Tinubu certificate for 1979,how that one take happoon?

1: If you graduate in 1991,

2: If you go back go your school for 1995 make them print you new certificate because you lost Old one

3: Them go reprint another one with

4: If Logos of school changes, your new certificate go carry new Logo

5: If the Registrar of the school got changed na the new Registrar go sign on your certificate so Signature go change



.
you no get talk. Tinubu bought that certificate. Do you think that it was Atiku that went there by his own intelligence? It's US secret service that gave Atiku that intelligence that he didn't actually study there. It's a political certificate and we've seen such in Nigeria where relatives to past presidents faked NYSC certificate and BSc certs just for political reasons. I don't know what you're defending here. Tinubu carefully chose Chicago University in the US because he thought no one would verify and since it's the US, you can't order them from Nigeria unless you're also a citizen of the US. Only to rig election and then proven wrong. He should have just used a Russian or Chinese University instead.

At least by now one or two persons would have indicated as his course mates, the school would have published the name of his classmates as well or even lecturers. The school knows that they've fvcked up. Everything you're seeing now is a cover-up which is too late. The logo you're talking about, the Chicago University has never used it in their history. So, the question is, how can a clerk make such an error? The school did those errors deliberately because they're fully aware that it was a bought certificate and could bring a stain to them.

Assuming Tinubu was not a president of a country, the school would have denied the cert. We've seen it happen to ordinary people in the past. Here, if they deny it, it still would implicate them because Tinubu's transactions to the school has been exposed still via the US secret service, so they have to play a cover-up.

Assuming Tinubu had no drug case, this matter wouldn't have come up in the first place. And, if Tinubu wasn't popular such that he has punched huge enemies that could actually dig things out, the school would have denied the cert. but it's too late to do so now. Didn't you see Tinubu's recent reaction on this matter? He's trying to defend his election by saying that his Chicago University cert. has nothing to do with election... etc.

I've learnt not to defend politicians on lies because in the end if anything happens to you, they won't even render help because you're not known. And don't be that type that defends tribe over truth, it kills integrity and would one day hunt you down when you're trying to be a good person just like it's hunting Tinubu now.

Messi scores as Inter Miami defeat NY Red Bulls 2-0 .

Miami got off to a 1-0 advantage in the 37 minute after Diego Gomez was able to put the ball in the back of the net despite his team being on the back foot at the time.

After a missed set piece, Messi was able to get inside the box and delivered an insane pass to Benjamin Cremaschi, who gave it back to Messi with a wide open net, allowing the Argentinian to score his first official MLS goal in the 89th minute, capping off a perfect night for Inter Miami.

the coaches of other teams so far no dey fix men on Messi to mark him and that's their weakness. A star player like that, you don't even let the ball get to him.

Another thing is, as a player, seeing that Messi the GOAT is your teammate motivates you to play well. We saw this in Argentina @World Cup 2022 and Barcelona, but didn't see this in PSG.

Keep it up, the GOAT.

BentizilL:

The bolded is where you start to get it all wrong, may you thought you're replying an ignorant mind... [b] Go back to your history, Israel is a small nation who just happen to be enjoying the grace of the two superpower at the moment. You want to know why Israel has not condemn Russia in Ukraine or send weapons to Ukraine despite pressure from US? It's simply because of Russia..

Israel has much to lose being hostile to Russia and very little to gain(probably nothing to gain).. Russian language is third most widely spoken language in Israel after Hebrew and Arab with almost 20 of percent of the population speaking it. Israel agreement with Russia will be first thing that'll be cancelled, that's no more free hand to strike Iran-affliated group in Syria... Even Netahanyu know the repercussions of being an enemy of Russia, main reason he's trying his best to stay neutral despite pressure...

I tell you again, Iran is not Arab.. One on one without outsider help, Israel won't last long against Iran.. Also, the Arab Israeli war is more like Arab-western war because those western guys were on ground then, go back and check...

Israel know not to dare Iran, they'll continue obliterate Israel from the map... They're not persia for nothing... [/b]


figment of your imaginations.

Dey play!

Number of soldiers does not determine a nation's strength, knowledge and weapons do. Every single wicked advanced weapon for major battle today came from Israel. While the US financially sponsor all their weapon inventions from A - Z. Modern war excludes unarmed civilians from it, unlike the past that everything that exist in that place will be destroyed. This UN law makes it hard for any modern war to take place without foot soldiers, otherwise, forget it, Israel will wipe them out before their hands ever touch the fire button.

So, for a modern war, you could be partly right but Israel is not Ukraine. They will actually fire you in your house where you're giving the "shoot" order from due to their advanced war tech.

Don't joke with people who has war experience than you, you won't stand a chance. It's like comparing present Inter Miami with Messi with Man U simply because Man U is a bigger club.

Go and check out the tussles between Iran and other Arabs with Israel, you'll see how Israel has advanced and has become a huge threat. The Arabs were still looking at them with yesterday's eyes but have currently discovered that an attack on Present Israel even without any US intervention is suicide, as we've seen in the past 10 years.
BentizilL:

One on one with Iran without any foreign support, there'll be no Israel... It seems you've forgotten that Iran and Turkey are in middle East... Those two are not Arab, either of them will erase Israel from the map...

The Israel-Arab war was more like US, France, UK war against Arab because those guys are on ground fighting for Israel. Even Iran supported Israel, so know what you're saying..

Even the Arab did not mobilise for anything, how else do you expect a total Arab army to be less than 60k when Israel had 100k+ soldier... Israel only saving grace is the country supporting him, he had no chance against Arab.. That's why he continue to play both side in the Russia-West power tussle..
Crime / Re: Police Arrest “Yahoo Boys” For Burying New Born Baby In Rivers by adebayo987: 6:49am On Aug 25, 2023
Wike would have given this support but I doubt if Sim will. He's more of a gentleman than an action man. I like him because he's very humble. But he needs to step up and take Rivers State security seriously like his boss Wike did.
GuruboiNaija:
Members of a local vigilante group in charge of Eagle Island, Port Harcourt City local government area of Rivers State, in collaboration with Police officers attached to the Azikiwe Police Division, have arrested twelve suspected internet fraudsters, popularly known as “yahoo boys”, for allegedly burying a newborn baby on Wednesday.

The fraudsters were said to have buried the baby at the waterfront in Eagle Island.

The Chairman of Phalga Security Watch, Victor Ohaji, who doubles as the Chief Security Officer of Eagle Island, said they got intelligence that some ”yahoo boys” were carrying out incantation at the waterfront.

Ohaji said he quickly mobilized his men and on getting to the waterfront, the boys had left.

According to the Vigilante leader, after a close observation of the area, they discovered that the boys had buried something at the waterfront.

The Chief Security Officer of Eagle Island, Ohaji said they dug the ground and discovered a newborn baby who was already dead.

He said they alerted the Rivers State Neighborhood Watch and the Station Officer of the Police post at Eagle Island, who then informed the Divisional Police Officer of Azikiwe Police Division.

Ohaji further explained that they went in search of the boys and apprehended them while they were coming out from a hotel within Eagle Island.

He confirmed that the boys were handed over to the police for proper investigation and prosecution.

“This morning, one of my brothers called me that some yahoo boys were doing some incantation in the Eagle Island Waterfront, in the Andoni area sandfield.

“So, immediately I called my boys and we swung into action. When we got to the scene of the crime, the boys had left.

“I asked my brother where the boys were doing the incantation, he showed me. When I saw the area, I knew something was buried there.

“We had to dig the area to know what was buried there. When we dug the place, we saw a bouncing baby boy, a newborn baby inside the ground.

“Immediately I called the SO of Eagle Island, being the Station Officer of Eagle Island, and I told him what we discovered.

“He said, let him relate to the DPO and immediately, we started going around in Eagle Island to make sure we apprehend the boys.

“We went from hotel to hotel, together with the police and the Rivers State Neighborhood Watch. We moved around, we saw them coming out of a hotel.

“As they saw us, they started running but we apprehended them. We took them to the police station, including the dead baby, to show them what we had discovered.

“One of the leaders of the yahoo boys was ranting, saying his father is a Major General and nothing will happen, that his father is coming.

“I’m pleading with the Rivers State Government to assist Phalga Security Watch. We are really working in this state. We hire a vehicle every day and nobody is paying us.

“Please, let them come to our aid and assist us so that we can get a vehicle that we can use to turn round the whole state to make sure we bring perpetrators of crime to book.” He added.

In the meantime, the Rivers State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of the suspected fraudsters, who allegedly buried the newborn baby.

The Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Grace Iringe-Koko, said the suspects have been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department for proper investigation.

She added that if at the end of the investigation, the suspects are found guilty, they will be charged to court for justice to prevail.

Democrats and his enemies no go leave this man alone? They said Trump would lead America into wars but he actually prevented wars, quite the opposite of their thoughts, but they're the ones who have plunged war in the East such that there's food and economic crisis now all over the world. Whether the US like it or not, they need someone like Trump as president. He'll outrightly deal with this people if by chance he becomes the president again.

With Trump (like Wike) as the US president, everybody will sit up because his eyes, ears and nose are in every corner to detect your flaws and actually deal with you, and not with fake promises that this Biden administration (like Buhari's) is doing now.

The world needs a roaring lion that will keep everyone on their sit.

joelbooks:
Former President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, was arrested at a Georgia jail Thursday on racketeering and conspiracy charges and released on a $200,000 bond after having a historic mug shot taken.

Trump, who is accused of colluding with 18 other defendants to overturn the 2020 election result in the southern state, spent less than 30 minutes inside Atlanta’s Fulton County Jail before leaving in a motorcade for the airport.

Like the other defendants in the case who have surrendered so far, the 77-year-old Trump had his mug shot taken during the booking process — a first for any serving or former US president.

In the photograph released by the sheriff’s office, he scowled at the camera while dressed in a dark blue suit, white shirt and red tie.

Politics / Re: JUST IN: Tinubu Blames University Clerk For Invalid Graduation Date, Signature by adebayo987: 1:57pm On Aug 24, 2023
Obviously, Tinubu bin bye that certificate, but that US Uni no go fit expose themselves for this matter no matter what, them go cover up.
ladididanlami:
President Bola Tinubu has implicated a clerk at Chicago State University as responsible for blatant irregularities that characterised a certificate the school reprinted in his name, according to new court filings seen by Peoples Gazette.

The Nigerian president said the unnamed clerk “unfortunately” made the errors as to the dates the school stated on his recently-issued certificate and when he actually graduated, thereby creating “the appearance of differences.”

Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s statement was filed on August 23 by his counsel as part of his argument before the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in Chicago. Judge Jeffrey Gilbert had given the Nigerian politician until August 23 to explain why his academic records at CSU should not be released to his political opponent Atiku Abubakar.

Atiku Abubakar, earlier this month, requested court approval to subpoena Mr Tinubu’s files domiciled with CSU because he believed the documents would clarify glaring inconsistencies in Mr Tinubu’s background, including publicly-available documents that suggested the CSU in the 1970s admitted a female student bearing Bola Tinubu who was born on March 29, 1954.

The Nigerian president said he was born on March 29, 1952, although he had also, at different times, listed 1954 as his birth year in the past. He also recently expunged his primary and secondary education from his records after it was discovered that the schools he listed under oath in his 1999 run for Lagos governor did not exist anywhere in Nigeria. Mr Abubakar believed the requested records would show which early and high papers Mr Tinubu submitted to CSU before he was admitted to study accounting there.

Atiku Abubakar had sued to obtain Mr Tinubu’s school records under a U.S. statute that allows documents available in the U.S. to be subpoenaed for use as evidence in a foreign court.

Atiku Abubakar argued that Tinubu had presented contradictory claims in Nigeria and the CSU, in responding to a previous subpoena, had issued documents that contradicted what Mr Tinubu had entered under oath in Nigeria.

Atiku Tinubu’s lawyers, led by Oluwole Afolabi and Christopher Carmichael, argued that the August 2022 subpoena that was issued following a request by a Nigerian lawyer Mike Enahoro-Ebah was “illegal” because he had no valid grounds to seek the documents, especially under education privacy rights. The lawyers, nonetheless, admitted the documents indeed emanated from the CSU, but an unnamed clerk had mistakenly typed the graduation date.

“Unfortunately, in responding to the illegal and invalid subpoena, CSU made several errors,” Mr Tinubu’s attorneys said. “CSU issued a new diploma for Bola A. Tinubu, but incorrectly wrote the date of graduation as June 27, 1979.”

The lawyers also said changes in school-authorised signatories and logos, alongside other anomalies like the fonts of the certificate, all combined to generate an appearance of wrongdoing.

“The correct date was June 22, 1979, but that scrivener’s error – along with a change in the CSU logo, the font on the diploma, and leadership at CSU who signed the diploma created the appearance of differences between an earlier issued diploma and the one issued in response to the 2022 subpoena,” the lawyers said.

Atiku Abubakar said he filed the suit because he wanted to get the school to certify all documents relating to Mr Tinubu, some of which had been filed by the Nigerian president’s lawyers in Nigerian court as part of the ongoing election petitions proceeding.

But Tinubu argued further that Mr Abubakar should be requesting the documents because Mr Tinubu’s academic records were not part of the initial litigation over the Nigerian elections. They said the opposition leader’s argument had been focused entirely on cheating and other irregularities around the conduct of the election.

They also argued that the Nigerian court hearing the election petitions had already concluded hearing on arguments, and a judgment is now being anticipated. The court is expected to deliver judgment on or before September 21, in line with the Nigerian electoral law that mandates the conclusion of a petition within 180 days after the election. The presidential election was held on February 25, and Mr Tinubu was sworn in as president on May 29.

Tinubu’s argument appeared to mirror the position of the CSU authorities on the lawsuit, and the school had said it would defer compliance decision to its former student on the matter.

Atiku Abubakar’s legal team, led by Chicago-based attorney Angela Marie Liu, is expected to file a response to Mr Tinubu’s argument that the documents should not be sought because they were not part of the Nigerian proceeding and would be inadmissible due to the current stage of the case.

Putin commot Wagner boss because the guy wan drag am put for war wey him never fit defeat common Ukraine wey dey very closer to him. Na Niger wey dey far away him fit defend? Una go soon hear shocking news about Niger junta. This defence minister is indirectly sending message to Russia that if they support Niger, ECOWAS will have their own support. UK no wan use ear 👂 hear say Russia wan officially fight any democratic nation.

NwaNimo1:
The UK’s Minister for the Armed Forces, James Heappey MP, arrived in Nigeria this week to meet top defence leaders and military chiefs to deepen defence cooperation between both countries and discuss the situation in Niger.

During his visit, Minister Heappey met senior leaders on Wednesday within the Nigerian Ministry of Defence and the Chief of Defence Staff and Chief of Army Staff.

He also met with the President of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Commission, where he reiterated the UK’s support for ECOWAS’ ongoing diplomatic efforts to ensure a peaceful return to democracy in Niger.

Defence Minister for the Armed Forces, James Heappey MP, said: “I’m delighted to return to Nigeria for the third time in three years.

“The UK and Nigerian armed forces have a longstanding partnership through which we continue to tackle violent extremism and other security threats in West Africa and the Gulf of Guinea.

“The UK supports ECOWAS in calling for the peaceful restoration of constitutional order and democracy in Niger, and we’ll work with both ECOWAS and our partners across West Africa to support them in that aim.”

The UK and Nigeria enjoy a deep and long-standing security and defence relationship, underpinned by a shared desire to support regional and international peace and security.

UK support to the Nigerian Armed Forces is a focus of the relationship, helping to build Nigerian capabilities to tackle security threats and instability.

Nigeria is a key partner in promoting regional security and countering violent extremism in West Africa, including the Lake Chad Basin.
The Nigerian Armed Forces are a leading contributor to the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), showing the resolve of its constituent nations to deliver security in the region.

The UK recognises Nigeria’s diplomatic mediation efforts to restore democracy in Niger through its membership of ECOWAS peacefully and condemns in the strongest possible terms the ongoing coup against Niger’s elected leadership.

We stand with ECOWAS in condemnation of the illegal detention of President Mohamed Bazoum, his family, and members of the government, as well as the unacceptable conditions under which they are being held, and call for their immediate release.

In the US you'll hear something like "a 2 years economic boost plan", "a 3 months growth turn around", etc. In Nigeria you'll hear something like "the government will borrow money from 6 years dormant account and whenever the owner needs it, he'll get it at anytime (no specific time like 24 hours, etc )" you'll also hear "This suffering is for a limited time (no forecast of the time)"

Them say na small suffer since May, no be August don dey finish so?

Una eyes go clear when 4 years finish and no improvement. Na so Emefiele use the same tactics punish us. Na so we think say things go change gradually under Buhari but ... the rest is history.

Investment / Re: Loan Advantage And Disadvantage by adebayo987: 8:55pm On Aug 23, 2023
Oluwashina72:
What's the advantage and disadvantage of taking loan either from bank or cooperative society for a new business?
Four business, take a long term loan by at least 5 to 10 years for repayment time. You'll be glad you did. But any short term loan is self dug grave and you can be arrested or accrue more debts in stupid Criminal interest rates than you can imagine.

Depending on your business, take a longer repayment term loan. Because business grows from 5 years and above, some can grow from 3 years to. By growth here I mean financial stability, such that you can't default on the loan even if they want all at ones at this time of your business. Secondly, don't open a business today to start making profit today, instead sacrifice for your business to start making profit after at least 2 years and above. Most Nigerian businesses fail because when they talk about business, they're not looking at the problem that they want to solve in the society, rather, they're looking at how quickly they'll be rich and escape poverty in the shortest time possible (that's failure mindset).

It's only in Nigeria that loans are given only for a very short time even by big banks and they would prefer a very short term loan in order to make quick profit. The economy now begin to dangle because nothing is stable as a lot of debtors are created which would further worsen unemployment in the country.

But, go for short term loan if it's an akara or moi moi business that you can start with 10k and your already owned stuffs like cooker, etc.

Russian media: Private jet crashes in Russia, warlord Prigozhin listed among passengers

A private plane has reportedly crashed in Russia's Tver Oblast, with the Wagner Group's boss Yevgeny Prigozhin listed as one of the passengers, the state-owned news agency TASS reported on Aug. 23.

According to the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, all ten people on board– three crew members and seven passengers – have died.

The Russian independent outlet Verstka said that the plane took off from Moscow en route to St. Petersburg at around 7 p.m. Moscow time, and the communication was lost at 7:11.

Prigozhin launched a short-lived rebellion against the Kremlin in late June, capturing the city of Rostov and marching toward Moscow before abruptly ending the insurrection.

An armed insurrection began in Russia on June 23, and, before it abruptly came to an end, looked poised to soon break out into open, large-scale violence.

The notorious Wagner mercenary force, once often called once “Putin’s private army,” occupied a major regional capital and began a march on Moscow.

Its leader, outspoken war criminal Prigozhin, turned his sights on Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and head of the Russian General Staff Valerii Gerasimov, who he critisized for not providing his troops with sufficient ammunition during the months-long battle for Bakhmut.

The Wagner Group was the key factor in Russia's successful push into Bakhmut.

Russia takes Bakhmut: Taking stock of the war’s bloodiest battle so far
Prigozhin's Wagner began to bring tens of thousands of convicts from Russia's prisons into its ranks, including those convicted of rape and murder, what proved to be the group's main recruitment drive in late 2022.

Used in combination with the more professional and experienced Wagner units, the prisoners proved to be highly effective as an expendable assault force.

However, less than 24 hours after starting the rebellion, Prigozhin march on Moscow was declared over. He announced that he was turning his forces around, and returning to base.

Following an undisclosed deal allegedly brokered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko, the warlord was allowed to walk free and has recently released a video claiming to be in Africa.

Ukraine's military intelligence Chief Kyrylo Budanov said on on June 30 that Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has been tasked with assassinating Prigozhin.

PoliticalUpdate:
At this point, we would love to know if there was to be a fresh election this coming year January, would you stand by your 2023 February 25th Presidential election choice?
There's one thing you seem not to understand about Nigerians. It is sentiments that work during elections and nothing more or less than that. It is either they're voting for money (includes INEC and Security officials) or religion, or ethnicity. Nobody is actually voting to make life better for all. Everyone is voting to make life better for "me and my family" kind of adage. That's the reality. We see in the past election how some LP agents received bribe and quickly turned their allegiance. So, honestly, nobody knows because on the field some people would accept as little as 10k to vote someone else's choice.

As for me, I'll vote whom I believe will make things better for all.

I honestly don't know what to describe you with. That was how people were noisy when Okadas were ban from entering some regions in the cities. Today, everyone is used to the city life and are enjoying it because it reduced crime. In those days, criminals would ride bike and spy on government residential areas and even come on bikes when attacking people and also for robbery.

Terrorists could come in the guise of herders to spy on VIPs and plan a possible attack. But that's by the way.

It's time for people to realise that the world is advancing from ancient life to modern life. We cannot continue to live like cows in this present day and expect change from heaven overnight. A place meant for city should remain a city and a place meant for gutter should remain a gutter. You can't be asking for promotion from class 1 to 2 without sacrificing to garner grades that will push you ahead.

One of the reasons Nigeria entirely is the way it is, is that the people have chosen not to advance, both from the leaders to the citizens and look very closely, anyone who has the decisive mind to actually make a change becomes an enemy to the people who wants status quo, and so far, the majority loves status quo.

Na majority of Aboki vote in Tinubu, so they must cope with him.


Gentlelox:
Apc attack dogs will not see reasons to understand that the street of Abuja from Gwas to Asokoro is flooded with Northerners that depend solely on this hawking to survive.


*Gbesé in Urhobo, means Trouble, strong wahala... E don burst wahala...*

With the Ban on Hawking in Abuja, how do you expect these people to get their daily bread. It like these politicians want to reduce the population of the country through starvation. First, they caused untold hardship less than a week after they took over, now, they installed a power drunk dictator to abuse people.

Nigerians are not dogs. You must learn to respect where the simple man gets his meal from. The Nigerians in Abuja will not take this easy with Wike.

Wike may just be the last straw to cause uprising in Nigeria... Whatever that means.

Jesus said if we retaliate then we are not different from them, still doesn't mean u can't defend yourself from aimless and careless killers, kiill them if u have to when defending yourselves and u won't go to hell after all we aren't supposed to suffer a witch to live.


Right! But Jesus didn't ask you to kill them no matter the circumstances. He even told his followers that they will be killed for His sake but gave them hope and courage to stand firm in their faith. He was more concerned about their faith than anything as that would be the only thing that can save them from eternal damnation, further telling them not to be afraid of the one who can only harm their body and not their souls. There's nothing like self-defence in Christ's teachings. Assuming self defence was in Christ's teachings, Muslims would never dare touch a Christian let to say their building, because they would skin them (Muslims) alive. In fact, Christianity would have been deadlier than Israel Jews of today that they believed that Yahweh gave them the approval for self defence (now the Palestinians their oppressors are the ones crying for help up and down today), but remove defence from Israel and see how cruel this Palestinians will treat them.

The founders of a religion is like an Army commander, the soldiers do exactly what the commander orders. Muslims are doing the things that Muhammad taught them while Christians are doing what Jesus Christ taught them. That's why you can never hear that there are Christian terrorists that read a portion of the Bible (in support of their crime) before killing a non believer. Otherwise, just as NATO respects Russia based on their weight, that's exactly how Muslims would have feared Christians but they know very well that even if they destroy Churches, Christians won't touch their mosque.

Any self defence teachings is from the old testament and the Jews still do it till date.
