paafin:
War is war..

America couldn't defeat Japan in the WW11, so they used nuclear weapons against them..

Ukraine should feel what it means going up against a world power!
We 'know' it as nuclear weapons because America first put it to use.

Now that we know its capability.
It clear it's not within the realm of convention.

Members of his extended family might go after the offer to say they prefer a sibling of the deceased instead to take the compassionate appointment.Widows are usually badly treated in SS SE and SW.
Yes. You're right.

I'm just commenting on the side of the government — where military enlistment should be merit based for security reasons.

That is how the federal civil service is structured.
The death of a spouse gives automatic employment to the surviving partner or dependent.
It's better to pay her his estimated lifetime earnings for his insurance package/ex gratia payments.

NSCDC job (a security job) on compassionate grounds CAN be counterproductive.

My condolences to his family/ God help & provide for them.

I believe ATIKU is the one that promised to unite Nigerians.

Also, virtually all states in the country has one form of skirmish or the other. So no one can truly unite us.

Not everyone 'lose' their jobs. Some work until retirement. Which isn't a job loss.
Foreign AffairsRe: Putin Grants Russian Citizenship To US Whistleblower Edward Snowden by Asour: 6:40am On Sep 27, 2022
lhordspy:
The world shouldnt cry foul....

It is just putin giving the US the taste of their own medicine.

We all know the US are known for poisoning the mind of other countries citizen, using US green-card as leverages for classified secret leaking and anti-government activities....

They did it in iraq, Libya, syria, afghanistan and of recent russia too... Mr Nalvany comes to mind, the US-seduced Russian who wanted causing chaos in Russia and bringing Putin government down.

Thank God Russia was so quick to jail the traitor on account of treason.


Navalny isn't US seduced. He is a Full Russian.

If the US (which is FAR from perfect) is as bad as you've deemed. What's the number of US citizens who want to be Russians /Permanently migrated to Russia Vs Vice versa.

Dirty you say.
But The same America warned the World that Russia was about to attack Ukraine in February this year. Most people including Russia said America was lying.

I have never seen those who denied this comeback to own up to their wrongs. Russia claimed the attack was a 'special Military Operation'.

America IS FAR from Perfect. But I'm yet to see a better world power. Seen any?

Sorry I don't understand you.

You claimed that if America doesn't have control over your resources, it spins negative media about you.

I call that bluff and gave you an example in Norway.
The question is : does the US control Norway's resources? No! Why then doesn't the US spin negative media about Norway?

Norway is a NATO member.
It's also a border country to (USSR) Russia.

The US has personnel there it's because it's has to.
Saying the US controls Norway is a joke.
PoliticsRe: PDP Crisis: Wike Jets Out Of Nigeria by Asour: 2:09pm On Sep 24, 2022
Penguin2:
Wike our man

The slayer of Northern irredentists who think they are everything in Nigeria.

Wike has helped prove that the [b]north is not the almighty political factor [/b]it has always prided itself as being; just that the south has always been their willing tool in their expired game of divide and conquer.

Now, Wike has demonstrated the the north needs the south as much as the south needs the north for there to be any political success in this country.

Long live Wike!

Meanwhile, I advise him not to make the mistake of choosing to work for Tinubu; that would be political suicide.
To be fair, Wike need not prove that. That has been known by discerning stakeholders.

In 2011, The Candidate who overwhelmingly won in the North, PMB, lost the general elections. So it's clear. The reason why Tinubu can 'ignore' the North is that he doesn't have the South East & SS. (He isn't that much welcome there). So he has little options but North).

Timoleon:
Propagandist images. As long as USA don’t control your resources, mainstream media reports about your country will always be negative. Every country that ever stood against USA faces the same treatment.

Iranians have freedom to go without hijabs indoors so why will police be scaling buildings to execute arrests? Why will police be armed with bayonets against unarmed(female) protesters? But in other to skew opinions of unsuspecting minds these kind of reports will always fill the media. Unfortunately, the west controls mainstream media.
But Norway has substantial Mineral reserves and the US doesn't CONTROL their resources. So your point isn't clear.

dont look at this issue from your own perspective but instead from your boss aka the owner of the company's perspective...
That's not always how the world works.
I use always because in this Nigeria we know, not a few appointments are on merit. EVEN in the private sector!

Foreign AffairsRe: Iran's President Abandons CNN Interview As Amanpour Refuses To Wear Head Scarf by Asour: 12:47pm On Sep 23, 2022
fiizznation:
The requested interview was just a ploy to paint Iran bad amidst the hijab controversy going on in Iran. Of course she vividly know the Iranian president won't grant her request.

Is like you don't know this western reporters.
Who's western? Amanpour is part Iranian. Raised in Iran while young.

I don't know if you're a Muslim.

These Shiites behave as if there was no Iran pre-Ayatolla. Very intolerant fellows. Their stance (of no compromise) is not sustainable. And I'm not talking about their fights with the US.

I'm talking about personal freedoms within Iran.
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran's President Abandons CNN Interview As Amanpour Refuses To Wear Head Scarf by Asour: 12:43pm On Sep 23, 2022
fiizznation:
Why schedule an interview with him when you know you won't put on a scarf? To score cheap political point or what? Just listen to the woman's defence? Talking as if the man forced her to wear a scarf.

Don't know why this crazy people derive some kind of joy in tarnishing the image of Islam and Muslims in general. Must you interview him without a scarf? If he isn't going to be comfortable with you interviewing him with your hair opened, why persist in the first place?

I don't know what hijab did to some people. Is just a piece of cloth. Doesn't bite anybody. So why the noise about something that you won't wear and nobody is forcing you to wear it
Show us a photo of Amanpour (who herself is an Iranian-American) wearing a scarf IN US while interviewing anyone.

He knew Amanpour would interview him.

He could have as well declined the interview without showing up.

God1000:
This is serious, so Iran's President didn't realize that he's in America for now.

I support Christiane Amanpour on this, I'm sure she will wear it if she travels to Iran for this interview, but this is USA na.

We've seen western female journalists covering their heads in the middle East because it is necessary to do so over there.

Again this is coming when women across Iran are protesting against the death of a 22 year old woman in the custody of morality police and with dozens of protesters killed already.
That's the problem.

These guys like self awareness.

While some parents keep taunting their children for being too old living and depending on them, others are are feeling too lonely and would even pay their children to park in with them.

SportsRe: Players Lionel Messi Has Assisted by Asour: 9:41pm On Sep 22, 2022
obembet:
The quality of players Messi has played with is the major reason behind his successful career.
I don’t think any footballer in history has played with this quality of attackers.


I believe this thread wil show all the Messi fans that I love Messi and Ronaldo equally. I don't hate anyone.
Ronaldo who played with what will be 3 balondor winners by the year end (when Benzema wins the award). Kaka, Benzema & Modric. Messi only played with one winner — Ronaldinho — who left > 10 years ago.

A Madrid that won the UCL last season without him. As well as a stacked ManUnited that dominated EPL. Nevermind a Juventus that Won 7 straight seasons.

Barca couldn't even win Frankfurt at ECL last season. In the last 5 years Barca has been meh.


Also CR7 has the most assists in UCL.
By your logic, he was only able to be great due to the crop of players who played with him too.
CareerRe: Tech Is The New "Oil" Money by Asour: 4:29pm On Sep 22, 2022
Maforgreats:
After saying nothing like tech in Nigeria but IT, u proceeded to use tech in ur message
Technology as a word means Applied science.

It has a broader application beyond the information space (IT).

Such fields as Biotechnology, Cancer Research, advanced Medical Engineering and Agricultural technology (not apps) are other unexplored areas in Nigeria. And they aren't lucrative here.

I'm Sorry for the way I said it.
I'm a bit tired of hearing people refering to IT say 'Tech' when they just mean app development.

CareerRe: Tech Is The New "Oil" Money by Asour:
Nechy45:
Can a non-science student get into tech? This tech is truly doing wonders
There's no such thing as 'Tech'.

What most Nigerians refer to when they say 'Tech' is Information technology & it's innovations.

This (IT) is a broad field that includes several subfields:

Analytics. (Data Analysis, Data Engineering, Business Intelligence, Machine Learning etc).
Cyber security/Cryptography
Web/Application development.
Enterprise /Information systems.
Blockchain development .

While non science students can get into tech, it's usually not too easy. It requires interest. Even science students without enough motivation do struggle — But it's possible.

Books, courses and Bootcamps are sources.of training.

Packt.com.
Leanpub.com
Nostarch.com are nice examples.

Good Analytics /Datasciency courses can be found on Bluecourses.com too.

YouTube and codewithmosh.com are both fantastic.

Just decide on a path, choose a structured learning path and FOCUS.
