I just watched the two videos. The one from Maiyegun is much clearer.
It's VERY clear that President 'Bola Tinubu's energy level was low at that moment and that's why he walked off track and fell. The same thing can indeed happen to people way younger than him. He was composed and walking properly next to the Turkiye leader then he suddenly veered off track and fell while appearing to lose consciousness.
I wish him a quick recovery though. It's clear that his glucose levels had dropped a bit hence his fall.

richiemcgold: Don't act like mumu. I've already commended the project. I'm only pointing attention to the remaining parts. The project details we read in the news sometimes last year was Ibadan to Ilesha to Akure and then Benin on dual carriage from the current one lane. So I have a reason for mentioning Akure in my comment. That's my state capital.
Onetechnews: To be honest here, many of us are still eating the same way we did in our twenties and wondering why our bodies are suddenly “misbehaving.”The truth is, nothing is wrong with you. Your body is simply changing, but most of us don’t want to admit it. We ignore the signs, push through the discomfort, and say things like, “I’ve always eaten this food, it can’t be the problem.” But it is. And it’s time we talked about it properly. Your Body Is Not as Young as Your Mind In your head, you still feel the same. You can still work long hours, stay up late, and handle stress. So you assume your body should cooperate.
Unfortunately, the body doesn’t work like that. As you get older, your metabolism slows down. This means your body no longer burns food as quickly as it used to. That rice you ate late at night? Before, nothing happened. Now, you wake up feeling heavy, tired, or bloated. It’s not village people. It’s biology.
Digestion Is Not What It Used to Be Many Nigerians don’t like to hear this, but the stomach also gets older. With age, your body produces fewer digestive enzymes. These enzymes help break down food properly. When they reduce, certain foods start to cause problems. This is why: Milk suddenly makes you uncomfortable
Beans gives you serious bloating
Heavy swallow makes you feel sluggish for hours
Instead of adjusting, we say, “I’ll manage it.” But managing discomfort every day is not wisdom. Your Gut Has Changed, Even If You Refuse to Accept It Your gut bacteria, the ones helping you digest food, change over time. Stress, medication, poor sleep, and years of eating processed food all affect them.
So when you eat the same foods now and your body reacts differently, it’s not drama. Your gut is telling you something has changed. Ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. It just makes the reaction louder. Sugar and Refined Carbs Are No Longer Your Friends. This one is painful, but we need to talk about it.
As you get older, your body becomes more sensitive to sugar and refined carbohydrates. White bread, pastries, sugary drinks, and even too much white rice can now cause: Sudden tiredness
Headaches
Mood changes
Weight gain around the stomach
But because “we’ve always eaten it,” we pretend not to notice the effects. Your body is no longer forgiving like before. Inflammation Is the Silent Problem We Ignore Many foods we eat regularly increase inflammation in the body, especially highly processed foods, too much oil, sugar, and alcohol. When inflammation increases, your body reacts more strongly to food. Joint pain, constant fatigue, stomach issues, and even brain fog can start showing up. Most of us just call it “stress” and move on. But the body is speaking. Are we listening? What Your Body Is Asking for Now Your body is not asking you to stop eating. It’s asking you to eat better. As you get older, your body responds more to: Proper portions
More protein
More vegetables
Less processed food
Enough water (many of us are guilty here)
Quality now matters more than quantity.
The Truth We Need to Accept Aging is not punishment. It’s adjustment. The problem is not that your body is reacting differently to food. The problem is that many of us refuse to adjust our habits. We hold on to old eating patterns and then complain when our bodies no longer cooperate. Wisdom is knowing when to change approach. Final Words If certain foods no longer sit well with you, it’s not a personal failure. It’s your body asking for attention. Listen to it. Adjust. Do better. Your future self will thank you.
donareal: According to the reviews I have seen on YouTube (not by Nigerians), the Honda jazz also known as the Honda fit is a very rugged and very reliable and a fuel efficient car. The main thing that attracts me to the car is the magic backs seats which enables creation of more space for transporting cargos.
I noticed the car is not very popular amongst Nigerians and I wonder why. I hardly see them on Nigerian roads, especially in Southern Nigeria. Is it because it is Honda or is there another reason people are not buying them?
I am aware the car has a low ground clearance which means it may not go very well with our Nigerian pot hole filled roads and badly made speed bumps. Could these be the reasons why Nigerian are not going for them.
Please guys help with answers. I am considering buying one.

Spectators: Tinubu Jokes About How S.L. Akintola’s ‘Magic Ring’ Failed Him During Coup in 1966 (VIDEO)
A throwback video from the year 2000 showing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, then Governor of Lagos State, making a light-hearted, coup-themed joke about the late former Premier of Western Nigeria, Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, has resurfaced online and is currently generating reactions on social media.
In the footage, which has been trending across digital platforms, Tinubu is seen narrating an anecdote laced with humour while referencing the circumstances surrounding Nigeria’s first military coup of January 1966, during which Akintola was assassinated.
Speaking jokingly, Tinubu suggested that the late Akintola was believed to possess a mystical Yoruba ring capable of transforming him into different objects whenever danger approached.
“It is equally or not equivalent and it was the only recoup that got him away. They’ve given him this Yoruba charm that whenever the evil comes or the bullet comes, he can rub the ring and he will turn himself to a dog or anything he wishes,” Tinubu said amid laughter.
He further narrated that Akintola’s first son, Ambassador Yomi Akintola, was by his side when soldiers arrived during the coup.
“And Yomi was by his side that day the army came. Bullet hit the wall, now he rubbed the ring, tried to change to a stick, he didn’t change. He asked Yomi, ‘Omo, kini mo da?’” Tinubu said, using a Yoruba phrase meaning, “My son, what did I turn to?”
According to the narration, Ambassador Yomi Akintola responded, “Dad, you didn’t turn to anything,” a remark that reportedly sent the audience into loud laughter.
The video, recorded during a public engagement in Tinubu’s early years as Lagos governor, has resurfaced at a time of renewed public interest in the legacy of Chief Akintola, whose 60th remembrance anniversary is approaching.
While many online users have described the clip as harmless humour reflective of the era, others have debated its appropriateness given the historical significance of Akintola’s role in Nigeria’s political evolution and the tragic circumstances of his death.
MrDrey: Full story of how S.L Akintola’s feud with Awolowo led to his death in 1966 (PHOTOS)
From Taiwo Oluwadare, Ibadan
Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola who was a former Premier in the old Western Nigeria between 1959 and 1962 is no doubt a legend considering his landmark achievements during the era of Western Nigeria before his demise.
It will be 56 years in January 2021 that the legend was assassinated precisely January 15, 1966.
SLA, as he was fondly called, a Nigerian politician, lawyer, aristocrat and orator, was born in Ogbomosho, in the present Oyo state. He is one of the founding fathers of modern Nigeria who was later elevated to the position of Oloye Aare Ona Kakanfo XIII in the Yorubaland.
Akintola began his political career after he was trained as a lawyer in the United Kingdom, and returned to Nigeria in 1949 to team up with other educated Nigerians from the Western Region to form the Action Group (AG) under the leadership of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. As the deputy leader of the AG party, he did not serve in the regional Western Government headed by the premier Awolowo but was the Action Group Parliamentary Leader/Leader of Opposition in the House of Representatives of Nigeria. At the federal level he served as Minister for Health and later Minister for Communications and Aviation.
It was gathered that differing interests for strategic alliances in Action Group party led to a political crises between Akintola and his friend, Chief Awolowo. The battle for supremacy in the party led to disagreement between them as Akintola disagreed with Awolowo’s decision not to join the coalition government. Akintola felt the Yoruba people of the West were losing their pre-eminent position in business, university and administration in Nigeria to the Igbo people of the East simply because the Igbo-controlled NCNC had joined the government and the AG had not. He also opposed the party’s decision to adopt democratic socialism as its ideology, preferring a more conservative stance.
According to Wikipedia’s accounts, Chief Awolowo accused Akintola of trying to supplant him as leader of the party. In May 1962 with the Western House of Assembly set to remove Akintola after the party had earlier passed a vote of no confidence in the premier in a party meeting, crisis erupted on the floor of the house. The AG party broke into two factions leading to several crises in the Western Region House of Assembly that led the central/federal government, headed by the Prime Minister Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, to declare State of Emergency rule in the Western region. Chief (Dr.) M.A Majekodunmi, the Federal Minister of Health was then appointed as Administrator . Eventually Akintola was restored to power (even though he had lost the legal battle with the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council then Nigeria’s highest tribunal) as Premier in 1963. In the general election of 1965, Akintola won his position as Premier, not as member of the Action Group party, but as the leader of a newly formed Nigerian National Democratic Party (NNDP), which was in an alliance with the Northern People’s Congress (NPC) the party that then controlled the federal government.
In a Punch newspaper publication of November 30, 2013, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, quoted Dr. Omololu Olunloyo, (a great nationalist, a two-time former Commissioner of Education of the old Western Region, a former Governor of Oyo state, one of few remaining elder statesman and a major player in the First and Second Republics) as saying: “Chief S.L. Akintola was the supreme leader. Chief Obafemi Awolowo left (the Premiership of the Western Region) of his own volition without advice to contest the federal election. In the federal election he contested but he had no alliances.
“Stubborn, aggressive, very hardworking, visionary leader that Awolowo was, he never understood real politics at any time. In real politics you have to look at the figures, you have to have allies- there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies. You must have some allies. Nigeria is too fragmented for you not to have allies. If you are counting in the presence of someone with nine fingers, you don’t count in the person’s presence and say ‘so you have nine fingers’. We had a brilliant man called S.L. Akintola who understood real politics.
“Awolowo believed that book knowledge was so important but he (Akintola) knew better. A situation arose- Awolowo wanted to ally with the east and Akintola wanted to align with the north. So there was a crisis.
“These are interesting historical perspectives and insights from a man that was appointed as a Commissioner (or Regional Minister) for a region that comprised of no less than what are 7 states of the Federation today (Oyo, Osun, Ekiti, Ondo, Ogun, Edo and Delta) at the tender age of 27”.
Akintola’s first son, Chief (Amb.) Abayomi Akintola while speaking about the feud between both families in the The Sun newspaper edition of December 20, 2015, said his father had nothing against the Awolowo family as it is widely believed. His words: “I will say Akintola had nothing against the Awolowos. And anybody that have that impression should look back into history. Akintola was leader of Youth movement, and the movement was the one gave birth to politics in Nigeria. And when people were calling Akintola to lead the party, he conceded it to Awolowo, to show his loyalty to him”.
•Late Segun Awolowo, Awolowo’s son The one-time finance minister and Nigeria’s Ambassador to Hungary also stressed how cordial the relationship between Akintola and Awolowo’s family are. According to him, the families are so close that the son of late Obafemi Awolowo, Segun, who is also late, was his best friend adding that it was unfortunate that Segun died at the age of 22, though survived by a son also named Segun.
•Segun Awolowo, Awolowo’s grandson Recounting how he missed his dear friend, Olusegun Awolowo after his death, Chief Abayomi said “I went to England for a course, when I came back, I was informed that Olusegun Awolowo had died. For you to know how close Olusegun and I were, Segun, may his soul rest in peace, and I did spend our holidays together. Also, his immediate younger sister (Mrs. Tola Oyediran), was also very friendly, and did come to Dublin to also study, met her husband, Prof. Oyeniran in my house”.
•Late Awolowo and son, Segun “It was after his death that I was hospitalized for about nine months that doctors could not ascertain what was wrong with me but today we thank God. My illness started from the shock I got from Awolowo’s son demise. I was 22, 23 years then. We were like siamese twins that we went around together”, Chief Abayomi recounted.
The late sage’s demise
Akintola was assassinated in Ibadan, the capital of Western Region, on the day of Nigeria’s first military coup of 15 January 1966 which terminated the First Republic.
This was the “Young Majors Coup” or the “coup of the January boys”, which resulted in the assassination of many leading politicians, mostly members of the Northern People’s Congress.
The son of the deceased gave a vivid account of how the late Icon was assassinated in Premier Hotel lounge in Ibadan, Oyo state.
He said: “I was at the premier lounge with my father but in different sections, one for the children and other for the premier and his wife. Suddenly, I heard a phone call rang and it was Mrs. Fani-Kayode around 2 and 3pm. She started shouting on phone saying “some strange people have kidnapped my husband, where is baba (Chief Akintola)”. “I went straight to my father’s room who came to pick the call and assured her that nothing would happen to her husband and she should keep calm”.
“After speaking with her on phone, he called security people. As he dashed out to call security people, shooting ensued. This time, I was at my section and suddenly, a wardrobe blocked me, my younger sibling, wife and my son from going outside the room”.
He continued “The shooting ensued for about 2 hours. Later when Baba Akintola went out, the shooting subside but by the time we went out, we had saw him in the pull of his own blood being killed on the floor. We had no option than for my wife to cover him with her clothe”.
“I was not a toddler and not that old when all these happened. I was there with my father when he was killed and its so unfortunate that I didn’t know how to live my life afterward but God kept me and my other siblings to survive the negative experience. I am grateful that I am also able to guide my siblings to become what we are today”, he added.
Meanwhile, an account on how Captain Emmanuel Nwobosi murdered the Premier in 1966 gave a clearer picture of what transpired on the day Akintola was murdered.
•Captain Emmanuel Nwobosi The report reads;
“Akintola, come down; you are for lawful arrest by the army on orders from HQ 2 Brigade,” Nwobosi shouted.
“Under arrest ke?” Akintola said to himself, “Oya, come and greet your mother’s husband,” as he cocked his gun.
When Nwobosi hit the door in an attempt to force it open, the Premier opened fire from inside his bedroom with a submachine gun, shooting contiguously and continuously through the closed door.
“Return fire,” Captain Nwobosi ordered his men, which they did, enormously.
“Please sir, surrender sir. Stop shooting, please. They only came to take us to Lagos,” Fani-Kayode pleaded and shouted from the landrover urging the Premier to cease firing and surrender. But the Premier kept on firing until he ran out of ammunition.
Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola was the 13th Aare Ona Kakanfo (Field Marshal General) of Yorubaland. A title, whose holder, according to a widely believed myth, was not expected to live long nor experience a calm death.
“Krrr, krrr,” the gun sounded. The Premier had run out of ammunition but the captain and his soldiers did not know this, they thought he was reloading and waiting for them. Akintola, now powerless, held out a white handkerchief in a sign of surrender and proceeded to the verandah. Ajao and Uloh who had been hiding in one of the other rooms grabbed him by his arms and dragged him downstairs.
“Bring him out, bring him out,” Nwobosi shouted repeatedly after the firing had ceased and he sighted his soldiers with the Premier downstairs.
“Now, now, boys. Be gentle. We are friends here,” Akintola said resignedly.
“You shot at us. You resisted arrest. It was a direct order from the HQ,” Nwobosi thundered, “we are to eliminate anyone who resisted arrest.”
“Boys, it is for the good of the country. Why don’t we negotiate? I will see to it that you treated well. I have the Prime Minister’s ears,” Akintola cajoled.
“We are soldiers, sir. We obey direct orders. Egbikor, Chukwu,” Nwobosi called his soldiers and signalled to the two men to open fire on the Premier. Fani-Kayode stared in horror as the Premier endured a deluge of bullets as he fell to his knees still gasping for breath. Nwobosi then joined them in firing at the Premier as he fell backward with a thud as life hurriedly escaped from him.
The Captain and his men then released the policemen and proceeded with Fani-Kayode in the landrover to Lagos as the 3-Ton truck headed towards Abeokuta. They all left Akintola’s mutilated body, riddled with bullets, surrounded by empty shell casings soaked in blood, lying there on the bare ground in his courtyard. The Aare Ona Kakanfo had fallen to his death. The curse persists”, HistoryVille recounted.
S.L Akintola was described as dignified orator and was responsible for completing the founding of University of Ife (Awolowo’s brainchild and currently Obafemi Awolowo University) in 1962 while still a premier in Western Region. He was also involved in development of Premier Hotel and other monuments.
Akintola was married to Chief (Mrs) Faderera Akintola and had five children, two of whom (Chief Yomi Akintola and Chief (Dr.) Bimbo Akintola), later became finance ministers in Nigeria’s Third Republic Chief Yomi Akintola also served as Nigeria’s Ambassador to Hungary and Samuel Akinola’s daughter-in-law, Mrs. Dupe Akintola was Nigeria’s High Commissioner in Jamaica. His fourth child, Chief Victor Ladipo Akintola, dedicated much of his life to ensuring the continued accurate accounting of Samuel Akintola’s contributions to Nigeria’s position on the world stage. He published many works including a biography that highlighted his father’s love for his country and lifelong commitment to its progression. The book is titled: Akintola: The Man and the Legend. His youngest child, Tokunbo Akintola was the first black boy at Eton college and features prominently in the bestselling book by Dilibe Onyeama, Niggar at Eton.
A number of institutions, including Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomosho, were established in both the Oloye’s home town and other Nigerian cities as a means of honouring him posthumously.
[quote author=Six.Seven post=138269092]Governor of Lagos at the time, please who killed Funsho Williams
This is the reason we should write our history. Is it the same SL Akintola that fought before he died and did not die like a chicken? He did not go down without a fight so what's this all about? About writing our history, there are books about SL Akintola and they can tell story about this man but if Tinubu can tell the story of Akintola, I want him to tell his own life story, let's check something. Starting from his parents 🤡 We should ban those who don't have a clear history from telling history please. It's an insult to our collective intelligence. The b is ggest mistake the government made, and so many of our politicians do this was to turn Akintola's residence to a Court of Appeal. We no de preserve history, we will just destroy things and be building new things.
One of his sons wrote a book about him where he described his father's death. You may find that in libraries abroad and in some archives but the title of the book was Akintola, the man and the legend: A biography by Akintola, Victor Ladipo.
Others have written on him but I rely on his son's account for something like this.
The spot where PM Balewa's body was found should have been a historical site. Hopefully it's not been taken over by bandits
Sunnyshinylight: The Dark Side Of Living Abroad Nigerians Don’t Tell You
Every day on Nairaland, Instagram and WhatsApp, we see pictures of Nigerians abroad living “soft life” — big jackets, snow selfies, fine streets, clean trains.
From Nigeria, it looks like once you japa, all your problems are solved.
But the truth? There’s a dark side of living abroad many Nigerians don’t talk about — especially those already there.
Let’s be honest.
1. Loneliness Will Deal With You
In Nigeria, even if you’re broke, you have people. Neighbours, family, friends, noise, gist. Abroad?
You can stay months without real human connection. Everyone is busy. Everyone is tired. Everyone minds their business.
Many Nigerians abroad battle silent depression, but won’t say it because they don’t want people back home saying “you wanted to japa, now see you.”
2. You’ll Work Jobs You Never Imagined That “abroad” dignity fades fast. Doctors become caregivers. Engineers wash dishes. Graduates do night shifts nobody wants.
Nothing is wrong with honest work — but the mental shock is real, especially when you remember how people respected you back home.
3. Bills Will Humble You Yes, currency is strong — but expenses are stronger. Rent. Tax. Insurance. Transport. Utilities. You may earn well, yet still be one emergency away from crisis.
That’s why some Nigerians abroad can’t send money home as often as people think.
4. Racism Is Real (Even If It’s Silent) It’s not always shouting or insults. Sometimes it’s: being ignored being over-policed being treated like you don’t belong working twice as hard to be seen as “normal” You’ll constantly feel like you have to prove yourself.
5. No Family Safety Net In Nigeria, if things scatter, you can manage: stay with family borrow food get help Abroad? If you fall, you fall alone. Miss rent = eviction. Lose job = real trouble. No uncle. No mummy’s friend. No village support.
6. Immigration Stress Can Break You Waiting for: papers visas renewals approvals Living in fear of one mistake ruining years of effort. That stress is not a joke. Some Nigerians abroad are physically there but mentally exhausted.
7. You Can’t Easily “Come Back” Once you japa, coming back empty-handed feels like failure — even if you’re tired. So people endure misery in silence, just to maintain the image of success.
Final Truth Living abroad is not bad, but it is not paradise. Nigeria is hard. Abroad is hard — just in a different way. Anyone telling you japa will solve all your problems is not telling the full story. Over to you, Nairalanders 👇
Would you still japa knowing all this?
Nigerians abroad, what’s the hardest part nobody warned you about? Let’s talk — no packaging.
This topic makes people uncomfortable, but it needs to be said.
Marriage rates are dropping, weddings are delayed, and more Nigerian women are openly saying: “I’m not in a hurry.” This isn’t feminism propaganda or social media brainwashing — it’s a response to reality. Let’s talk honestly.
1. Marriage No Longer Guarantees Security Traditionally, marriage meant: Financial stability Protection Partnership
Today, many women see married women: Struggling financially Doing 90% of domestic labor Enduring emotional neglect Staying because of shame, not happiness If marriage looks like extra stress instead of safety, avoidance becomes logical.
2. Many Men Want Wives, Not Partners
A major complaint women raise is this: Some men want: A cook A cleaner A sex partner A baby machine But not: An opinionated woman Emotional responsibility Shared decision-making Modern women who work, earn, and think don’t want to downgrade into adult housemaids.
3. Fear of Domestic Violence and
Emotional Abuse Let’s stop pretending. Too many Nigerian marriages hide: Physical abuse Emotional manipulation Control disguised as “headship” And society’s advice? “Endure.” “Pray.” “Think of the children.” When marriage feels like a trap with no exit, women choose freedom.
4. Economic Pressure on Marriage Is Insane
Marriage in Nigeria is expensive: Bride price Traditional wedding White wedding Family demands Women see men drowning financially and ask: “If this is how we start, how will we survive?” Some women would rather build stability first than enter a financial struggle disguised as love.
5. Better Single Than Miserable Previous generations stayed because: Divorce was taboo Women had no income Society offered no alternatives Today, women can: Earn Rent Travel Choose peace When the choice is single and stable vs married and miserable, the decision is easy.
6. Bad Examples Are Everywhere Social media didn’t create the fear — it exposed it. Women now see: Cheating scandals Publicly disgraced marriages “Perfect couples” collapsing Marriage has lost its illusion of safety.
7. Marriage Benefits Men More Than Women (Often) Studies and lived experience show: Married men live longer Married men are more stable Married men gain social respect But married women? More stress More unpaid labor Less freedom Until marriage becomes fair, avoidance will continue.
The Truth Men Don’t Like to Hear
Women are not avoiding marriage. They are avoiding: Unfair marriages Unsafe marriages Loveless marriages If marriage offered: Partnership Protection Respect Emotional safety Women would line up for it.
Final Question
Are Nigerian women “too picky” — or are Nigerian marriages failing to evolve?
👇 Over to you. Let’s hear both sides.
Nigerian women avoiding marriage? [b]That's a debatable topic with the kind of traditional and communal environments Nigerian women live in. They are under constant pressure by the society to get married. If you aren't married as a woman, some so-called male landlords won't let out their apartments to you.
For Diasporan Nigerian women, that delay or desire to NOT want to get married is partly TRUE, but a lot of Diasporan women from Nigeria still have subconscious desires to get married BUT a lot of Diasporan Nigerian men too tend to avoid getting married to them and instead go for women from other countries or nationalities.

pook: What the hell are you saying. It's Russian Technology and it's Russia who is helping Iran develop Nuclear weapon working with Iranian scientist because Iran is rich in Uranium I mean a whole lots of it which Russia also needs a whole lot of it. Stop giving them credit for what they didn't do. Iran makes Drones which they provide Russia now. The Ukrainian with Russia is now "War of Drones". The two sides rely now heavily on drones.
Hey! YOU MUST learn to digest posts properly and be civil in your responses to other people's online posts instead of just barging into posts WITHOUT understanding things contextually. If something is beyond your understanding, then you stay off! I personally have many decades of knowledge in global geopolitical dynamics and world history.
I know FULL WELL that Iran has used Russian and Chinese technologies in the past and they have even improved on these technologies with their own home-grown solutions. You know absolutely NOTHING about Iran if you are saying they do NOT have their own home-grown civil and Military technologies. Despite that, I CLEARLY stated my full support for the removal of these insidious Shiite clerics. Is that too difficult for you to understand? Period.
Putindbutt: The deranged criminal in white house was instigating Iranian civilians to revolution, inciting them to "take over the institutions". Just the same template he applied when he instigated his Maga wild doggs to take over the Capitol Hill, they evaded it, desecrated it, destroyed anything on sight, overpowered and killed some policemen at the premises.
Coming back in his second term, the deranged criminal has given his Maga wild doggs a Presidential pardon. That's his aim, to destroy the fabrics of democracy.
The deranged criminal in the white house wants to incapacitate Iran alongside their armed militants like Hamas, Houthis, Hezebollahs, etc. So that Isreal could have a free pass to take over the lands of the Arabs, expand Isreal's illegal occupation and to dominate and lord over the middle east without any resistance from the people. But their plan has failed, it has never succeeded and it will never succeed.
The little boy Nentayahu is shameful knowing he has failed to tame Hamas despite his braggadocio and running to his big daddy in the US for billions of military aids. The Palestinians has no standing military, Gaza has no military bases YET Isreal with all his military might and strength in numbers, weapons and technology cannot defeat a tiny land without a military. Shame!
Coming to Iran, the US will never want to play with fire!. The Persians/Iranians are one of the top 2% scientists in the world. They're naturally gifted, talented and intelligent. These people founded the almighty Algebra that's the foundation of everything today. They have had breakthroughs in several fields of science, in medicine, Artificial intelligence, Nano medicine, Astrophysics, Astronomy, Pharmaceuticals, Nuclear engineering, etc. These Iranians have proven to be blessed by God.
They produced their own COVID 19 vaccines - more than 150 million doses of vaccines without running hand in cap to the West for vaccines like other countries do. Unlike America that relies on other citizens like Jewish -Americans, French-Americans, German-Americans, Black-Americans, Dutch-Amercans etc to help them in research, discoveries and development. Iranians breakthroughs are 100% by Iranians.
Iran's military grade GPS jammers crippled Starlink. This was what Russia was not able to do when it wanted to cripple Starlink, but Iran did it 100%. Remember that US has been warned by their military veterans of Iran's capacity to attack US and cause great destructions.
Remember the last time US attacked Iranian nuclear sites, Iran responded with its own attacks on US base in Qatar. And that will be the starting point, Iran will first of all destroy all US military and naval bases around the neighborhood before launching direct missiles into the US.
NO doubt Iran currently has some of the most advanced weapons ever seen in the history of mankind leading to the so-called "Iron Dome" being breached and Israel nearly obliterated during the 12-day Iran-Israel War, BUT the United States has some other advanced weapons that are NOT conventional or in use by other countries and these would be used in a WORSE case scenario. I want the Iranian people from the land of Emperor Cyrus the Great of the Persian Empire (the Shah han Shah or King of Kings) to be free again since the so-called 1979 revolution which ousted the then "Shah" of Iran who had very cordial ties with the State of Israel and the United States.
Iranians at home and the large Iranian Diaspora are VERY brilliant people. They are simply tired of the repressive Shiite clerics in Iran. Did you know that the globally recognized CNN journalist, Christiane Amanpour is an Iranian woman with British citizenship? The Iranian Diaspora are everywhere doing fantastic things and would be greater when a peaceful Iran is achieved.
Pakute: • Donald Trump said on Thursday that the US had an "armada" heading toward Iran but hoped he would not have to use it.
• A senior Iranian official has warned that the country will treat any attack "as an all-out war against us" ahead of the arrival of a US aircraft carrier strike group and other assets in the region.
The deployment and use of "energy weapons" will do the trick and set the Iranian people free from the grip of the Shiite clerics. Too many lives of regular Iranians have been lost in the last 1 month due to street protests in several cities of Iran. The imminent return of the Shah's son is near. Period.
Has he fully paid for those cars? One of the last scandals he had is that he hadn't fully paid for one other luxury car he bought.
This young man MUST desist from buying a lot of these depreciating assets like cars and FOCUS more on appreciating assets and the welfare of his immediate family especially his children. Period.
Slytiger: Welcoming new citizens into the Australian family is one of the most meaningful ways to mark Australia Day.
Today I met Michael Odutola and his family. Michael came to Australia to contribute to cancer research, and his work is already helping improve lives across our community.
Families like the Odutolas are part of what makes Australia strong, diverse and full of possibility.
Congratulations to the Odutola fam on the achievement of Dr. Michael Odutola who is of Ijebu descent in Yorubaland based off of his surname.
More power to their elbows as they contribute in various ways to Australia's development and that of the global ecosystem. With technologies such as video conferencing and more, Michael Odutola can always stay in Australia and contribute to Nigeria's advancement in the medical research field, so, it's NOT a total loss of human resources.
IamAsiri: Are you a joker? Even a whole town in Ekiti called "Efon Alaaye" is named after it.
There is also a Yoruba proverb about it. Make researches before concluding.
Indeed... Even the area called "Igbo Efon" on the Lekki Peninsula is named after ancient buffalo forest hunting grounds. There's a lot of ignorance of historical events among these younger people online and offline.
Back in the 1910s for instance, the history archives CLEARLY state that wild elephants roamed around the thick forests of Agege in Lagos State and till date, huge pythons and crocodiles can be found in the swampy ravines running behind Sheraton Hotel in Ikeja right through the Opebi area right into the Omole Estate area which emphasizes that modern Lagos State leading right into Ogun State was thickly forested with a lot of wild animals.
