bidex111: [/b]The Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā'at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da'wah wa'l-Jihād, has released a video showing the execution of three Nigerian soldiers.
In part of the video seen by SaharaReporters, the soldiers were shot dead by the insurgents with guns[b]
Brought to you by the medicine is created by the anti-Christ, science is fake, chem trails, and weather manipulating space lasers are attacking us people.😂😂😂
andrewza: you do under stand that WW3 will be nuclular right. Robust or not the econmy will be gone. I mean you do realize thati think african people will get off better than the country takingpart in the war. Our countries might not survive but we will be in a better shap than europe, asia and north america. So again who will you sell you oil to?
Not necessarily and even if it was which I could possibly see when Russia inevitably starts loosing without a ceasefire or peace agreement and even then it’s likely to be more strategic than FIRE ALL MISSILES enter Nuclear Armageddon.
A conventional war or low yield nuclear affair will not make both America & China’s economies go bye bye. Africa “sells” more than just oil and has the potential to do more and would have the cards to do more in such a position.
After all there’s going to be a lot of rebuilding to do. Should the rest of the world go bye bye like you assume we can sell amongst ourselves, to South America, and the numerous conclaves that will make up the North American & Eurasian Wastelands.😂
andrewza: in ww3 America and china would very much stop being countries as we know it.
No they will not vanish but there trade and ablity to provide aid will. For all purpose they will not be there and will have no need to buy or sell any with with nigeria or Africa
Nigeria does not have a industry that matters. I know people like to talk about it but the Nigrian industry is in truth very small in evry region and catagory. Remember Nigeria populastion is masive yet it industry is smaller than south africa. This is not even me say south africa will survive as a intact country. No country in the world will. The world is to linked in global web of trade and services and WW3 would shatter that entier system.
WW3 wont have investors. the war will be fast and short. who will invest in nigeria and what would they invest with.
i dont have faith in the poltical leaders in south africa or nigeria to keep the counties together.
America and China; more so the former will continue to operate as usual do in part to there robust economies and geological locations. We don’t know what the war will look like. Will it just be NATO vs Russia or will the Arabs, Israel, Iran, Pakistan, India, China, the Koreas, Japan, and the Pacific light there own fires? I’m talking about a conventional’ish war not a a total nuclear apocalypse.
Regardless they will be there and they will buy & sell as usual and so will ground zero points like Europe. They have no reason to stop and all the reasoning to continue. This has nothing to do with “aid” just basic trade.
The global web of trade and services isn’t going anywhere especially to and from Africa without reason. Will it face disruptions? Definitely
As I stated before Nigeria, SA, and a few other African countries already have burgeoning industries that will be forced to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. They can invest in each other’s unique advantages & regional specialties to mitigate individual weaknesses.
As for foreign investment; the usual along with materials needed to fuel there war economies and low risk economic zones where outsourced production & services don’t get compromised by the war.
The world will become a different place but Nigeria, South Africa, and others will live in some form or another.
andrewza: Sorry but africa and i mean every african counntry even south africa that so far south with a much more mature and advanced econmy will be effected heavily by a WW3 event. Some countries may endure it better than others but i dont think nigeria will be one of those. Here is why i think that.
Goverment budget The nnigerian goverment budget is heavily realint on trade of crude oil. I am not talking econmy here but the budget the goverment uses to run the country. With a sudden loss of trade partners and market crash could cause the Nigerian goverment to collapse
The federal and tribal nature of Nigeria Nigera breaking up does not even need to be a major collapse of the country. It could simply be easier to maintain control over smaller areas. So there could be a central goverment in power but it is in name only with each region being it's own thing. Aka a central goverment so weak it is pointless
Loss of critical trade. Nigeria industry is to small to sustain the country. Most cars in Nigeria for example are 2nd hand imports or cars assmbled in country. Nigeria actual Automotive industry being small and still importing a lot of parts. Even area that you think are ok are not with Nigeria still importing a lot of it's refined fuel
So yes i can very much see WW3 leading to a end of Nigeria as a country. Though this is all so depndent on the leader ship. A good leader could keep the country together but it is not a sure thing for any african country. Even South africa could collapse a lot of our industries are depndet on a market to trade with. Africa is all so poorly set up to trade with each other. at least over distance. South africa for example does not have a large oil supply but can refine oil but there no pipe lines from Angola or Nigeria to our refinery so it would have to be ship going back and forth and there no major African shipping company.
So yes ww3 will lead to a end of every african country as we under stand. Now African countries could reform and rebuild so Nigeria could collapse and then reform but to think nigeria would be ok if the world started a mjor world war is a pipe dream.
Nah actually Nigeria would be one of the better off countries. Like I said most of Nigeria’s crucial trading partners like America & China wouldn’t disappear and there trade to Africa wouldn’t have any reason to dry up as there is no infliction point. There are also other partners like Brazil. Your discussing as if the entire world outside of Africa would disappear into thin air.
Nigeria has a burgeoning industry and in such an event would just force it to tighten its own boot straps. As we saw with the fertilizer issue among other things. As for lack of refined oil; that’s a problem already predicted to faze out considerably in the near future with Nigeria’s continues construction of oil refineries. A World War Three scenario would only increase the demand of oil & gas and with the powers blowing each other’s facilities to bits it allows opportunity for commercial leverage.
Like I said before a neutral region could attract investment from those seeking a platform for there business to operate out of high risk and conflict zones.
Your correct own Africa being poorly set up to trade with itself. That’s where the bootstraps come in. World War Three would absolutely effect Africa negatively. Would some countries collapse? Sure. Would that include Nigeria and South Africa? Not necessarily. Such hardships merely forces your back against the wall and for you to solve your own problems. Major players in Africa could emerge with more political clout than ever after such a war has concluded with much of the world theaters exhausted, drained, and diminished.
GreenandGold: Being "left alone" during a world war is impossible, everyone will suffer direct or indirect consequences. I'll put up a simple scenario, a war starts in Europe, fertiliser goes through the roof affecting the ability to produce food, shortages will occur, and guess what will happen? Social unrests, blame them on the president and his ethnic group, separatists will take hold, internal wars begin..... and that's just one scenario, I haven't added in China, and the USA and the Middle East doing their separate things.
In a world war, I see a million ways even a country like Nigeria could tear itself apart.... and yes, external powers are keeping a lot of African countries together either via military assistance, trade or aid.
Being “left alone” and feeling the consequences aren’t the same thing. Of course the economic ramifications will be felt but that’s when you pull yourself up by the boot straps. Hypothetically it’s possible for your scenario to happen in 2 or 3 desolate countries but the continent? Nah. Even so I doubt these rebels will have any allegiances to any of the main actors. The fertilizer hike has already happened before and nothing remotely close to that happened matter of fact places like Nigeria started heavily investing in its own production.
No external powers are keeping African countries “held together” by those means outside of a handful of countries who have debatably already “collapsed”.
The Middle East is a non-factor here from the African perspective; we don’t get much of anything from them that can’t be produced at home. As for Europe yea it would definitely be some burn there but these days most African imports largely comes from North America & China which I don’t see getting catastrophically bombarded to the point it significantly shuts them down in terms of conventional warfare. We also share no significant intersecting trade routes or alliances between the two so I doubt our shipping will be halted. Sure Chinese mainland military installations will be hit by targeted bombing Campaigns and there Navy pummeled in the Pacific but I don’t see most of there crucial commercial ships bound for Africa being blasted out of the Indian Ocean.
It’s to my belief WW3 devastation will be largely contained to Europe, The Middle East; possibly South Asia, and the Pacific.
GreenandGold: You'll be surprised, a world war is unscripted, a lot happens... European wars have a tendency of spilling over to Africa, especially down south... The Napoleonic Wars literally created the modern southern Africa, WW1 made South Africa invade and colonise Namibia for almost 80 years, that's even longer than Germany did.
You cannot negotiate for better deals while tearing apart... Islamists, separatists and tribalists would definitely seize the opportunity and without a foreign power to keep them in check, we'll be fighting to keep internal peace and resources would be sold by whatever militia is controlling them at that time.
The previous World Wars only spread to Africa because it was under direct control of European Colonial Empires or White Colonists. Very few modern African people Civilian or Government care about European Tribalism to get involved. Neither do they have any major incentive too.
There are currently no Islamist, separatist, or tribalist being “kept in check” by Westerners. These days it’s mostly African boots on the ground with moderate outside funding.
While EURASIA is tearing itself apart via World War Three; Africa being left alone relatively speaking should be redefining itself within its borders and abroad. Africa could take advantage of the need for various precious materials, resources, and goods on more favorable terms. Might even be able to usurp & take over certain Industries under threat if not completely destroyed by a hypothetical WW3.
By “Africa” I obviously mean the larger regional powers and smaller stable Republics.
GreenandGold: Oh well, it didn't need to get to the cutting of aid, I mean there's a lot of negative consequences that could happen, including social instabilities, crashing of economies, population explosions, new internal conflicts starting because there's a sudden shortage of food, medicine and educational opportunities that came with the aid... This is literally what a bad-faith player like Russia could exploit.
Aid could secure some kind of stability for resource extraction for Europe especially if this world war goes fully hot, doing otherwise would give Russia and China an easy cheap buy from African countries tearing themselves apart.
Ain’t nobody in Africa outside of maybe Egypt & Sudan getting involved directly in WW3. Africans should be positioning themselves in the chaos to negotiate better deals within and outside of the continent and consuming superior political leverage as “EURASIAN” countries are tearing themselves apart.
Lurker4Long: Following the US decision on foreign aid and geopolitics being in flux, the UK has already announced cuts to aid to spend more on defence. Personally, I hope all others follow. The whole aid thing is shameful!
They better follow suit with getting rid of there neo-colonial draconian deals too. The worst offender but a severely doubt that’s going to happen…
GreenandGold: ....but my concern though is how the ANC plays international politics without strengthing the military.... I mean at this point, a world war is imminent, mad men are sitting in powerful offices with nukes, we don't have a meaningful air defence system....and... a nuke IBM coming our way cannot be ruled out, I mean we are literally asking for it.
South Africa and Africa in general definitely need to be bolstering your defensive capabilities; but do you really think you’ll get a nuke sent all the way down South just because you eased relations with Ukraine?
I still hold my position on Africa; at least “Sub Saharan” Africa staying out of it which shouldn’t be hard.
Unless one side goes FULL world war genocidal regime we shouldn’t pick a side and even if we do it should be more politicly metaphysical.
GreenandGold: At times, I forget Kenya is in a rough neighborhood...
NTSA: Sometimes I feel like that calm is more out of luck than design. Our military is professional, disciplined, and well trained, but when it comes to heavy firepower and equipment... we're punching way below our weight.
Is there a non-rough neighborhood anywhere in Africa? The North has Libya, Eastern Egypt, and Western Sahara. The West has the Sahel. Central Africa is made up largely of the DRC need I say more? The East has Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Uganda, AND the DRC. Southern Africa while probably the least rough has the developing Mozambique situation, and xenophobia.
Baller254: honestly though, If I was an American taxpayer, I would be smiling at the job trump and his team are doing, their spending bill on Ukraine and on many other matters just got lower
Negative; Ukraine received millions in “assistance” primarily in the form of old and (or) outdated equipment that was already set to be replaced by new gear actually saving money through the elimination of decommissioning & junkyard storage cost. Not only that but American credibility and geopolitical reach has took a massive hit.
The Ukraine money along with the money being taken away from the programs DOGE is slashing or shutting down will be used to offset the cost of the tax breaks the current administration is trying to give themselves & the Super Elite. The average American want see much if any of it.
Trump is currently playing chicken with the US economy. The market tanked last night. Prices, Inflation, and scarcity have been going up the past month and is do to start skyrocketing; while unemployment has spiked.
The only people celebrating are Trump and his super elite friends along with the uneducated and by extension MAGA fanbase who have little to no idea how these things actually work or are just straight acceleret anarchist.
bidexiii: Let me break your heart dude; you're far disconnected from reality and I must say also that you are being overwhelmed with emotions & facts.
Calling a "spade a spade"; Zelensky is a fool and arrogant simp. Don't be crowded with emotions bro, Russia is a super-power that wouldn't allow NATO close to her borders a decision Comedian Zelensky has brought on Ukrainians. Let's sight a scenario; Would America allow Russia/China or a communist country near her border if there wouldn't be a WW3, A scenario i posted in this video link:

Every-time Legacy Media or a Politician states the was is “unprovoked” is a complete lie.

[b][/b]Call Putin a dictator or a murderer, All European president both present and past are far worse, Western countries and NATO has blood on there hands too.
Big up's to President Trumph for saying no more funds for this thieves. Am not supporting Russia for selling Arms to Nigeria, and when was even the last time we struck any major procurement from them, the Uncle Sam sanctions was a setback for us.
If WWIII begins from this war its because an arrogant Zelensky and a devil called prime Minister Keir starmer and other EU president are pushing the fool to keep fighting I stead of coming to the negotiating table.
Trumph has seeing that if this war continues, EU countries would push super powers into a Nuclear war. An Awaiting accident Trumphs wants to avert, yet you sit on your table call him a bully/arrogant.
Big Yikes dude.😬 You’re looking at this from the inside of a wild @ss bubble. I’ve already heard all the conspiracy theories and the majority of them don’t add up or align much with reality based on the provable facts. Are you messing with us?😅
bidexiii: Yeap because human senses and mindset is channelled to believe that they must think in such a way or act in such a way. Alot of shit happens behind scenes and they come to the press as if everything is okay. President Trumph as no time to fake things and make you feel happy even in the face of a press conference. Billions and lives are been wasted for this war for someone's ego.
Zelesnsky is proud, arrogant, egoistic and unappreciative dictator, His actions and decisions as lead to millions of lives lost and still counting, billions of dollars lost and embezzled by him and is corrupt administration.
Talking about the fact that you say; "you can't believe the US is now a Strongman's country". This is a long known fact and it amuses me you're just realizing that now, Let me add to the list which is China and Russia also. The rest are just pussy.
I quite agree with you that the war might sorawn up in the nearest future, if it happens it will be bad for every country involved but it will brme far worst for Ukraine.
I’m going to be honest man I enjoy your photos, coverage of Nigerian military/politics, and a few of your other statements; but this is the most disconnected from reality thing I’ve ever seen you post. Yes; billions millions of lives are being wasted do to ego; primarily Putin’s. Everything you just said that I highlighted is a better description of Putin and progressively Trump who’s local policies is speedrunning the US into a Great Recession and who’s grandiose image is fueled by misinformation campaigns and creating “fake stuff”. Matter of fact he’s turning the US into his on mix of WW2 Italy and authoritarian Oligarchy that is Modern Russia, with a topping of Nazi-adjacent racism/sexism as we type.
I’m no simp for the West or Russia; but I’m simply going to call a spade a spade. If Russia takes Ukraine and looks further west into Europe which everyone knows is the case as an African it’s no skin off my bones this is just European tribalism & idealism. Both Ukraine and Russia are infested with neo-Nazi’s. None are an ally to me and there are no “hero countries” or “Axis of Evil countries” in my eyes. I’m all for a bipolar world order beyond Euro-centrism; but just because Russia sells Nigeria weapons and supported Africa in the past for obvious political clout doesn’t mean I’m going to play dumb to what’s really happening.
The conference was a sh1tshow because of Donnie and Vannie. Yes; Zenny got baited easily and is on the “back foot” as in he doesn’t have the military advantage or advantages positioning; but who in there right mind wants to give up and lose there country? If BokoHarem started blitzing south would you recommend the Nigerian government give into them? Do you want to live in a Nigeria where Islamist Extremist have even more significant power in the federal government and by extension Africa?
From the Ukrainian perspective your essentially telling them to just give up and become an Enslaved complacent concubine.
If WW3 pops off over this it’s because PUTIN INVADED Ukraine because of dubious reasoning; Westerners like Trump emboldened them, and the REST of the West FAILED protecting Ukraine or developing a genuine peace deal.
[b] The only thing that better happen is Africans staying the heck out of it”. I consider the Africans up there fighting now as paramilitaries crazy.
Faithful007: Dude this isn't the first a US Senator or Rep is saying something unverified like this. When one of them said that the Nigerian Army under Buhari was killing christians, did you believe it?
Even when some Reps said that the Nigerian military was violating human rights, even with some levels of evidence, most of you still refused to agree with it.
Do you guys just select what you like?
The same people also said the last administration was attacking other countries with Weather & Earthquake lasers.
