Trump should stop making noise, if he wants to fight Iran let him go ahead, we are tired of the propaganda, he's afraid to strike because Iran has capacity to retaliate

The only thing that made Trump to caution is the potential striking of all American bases in the middle east.

That is the major threat Iran can pose to the US. And America is examining the cost implication of it.

They (Iran) don't have Nuk warhead. All their intercontinental balistic missiles that they usually rely on will be pulled down easily due to target range factor.

Once America finalize it plans, it could honestly level strategic places as required within Iran in 3 days and there will be silence everywhere in Iran.

lanre316:
Inasmuch as USA aren't saints. I don't trust the Chinese one bit.

They don't care one bit for Africans. They are only interested in what will benefit them.

If we think the USA are racists and hates the black race, China and Russia are racist pro max.

Well, I agree with you. Yes, USA is better overall IMO obviously.

However, in this context, even Exxon, Chevron, Shell etc give financial inducements to the mafia guys / militia in the Niger delta for the protection of their staff and facilities.

It's a norm when you invest in a foreign land, especially places with high level gangsters or terrortists.

Final truth is that both nations are persuing their interest of dominance and exploitation differently.

Jughead29:
But truth be told, what are the Chinese doing in Nigeria especially mining sites?

Despite the insecurity in those areas, they'll never be attacked.... Make it make sense

The intent of the Chinese firms giving funds to the fulanis is for the protection of their staff and business facilities.

Cheveron / Exxon / Shell does similar thing in the Niger delta. Every business in a foreign land must often pay due homage (forceful pizzo-money).

Yes, it indirectly strengthened the financial power of the terrorist, but that was not their initial aim.

Do you think if America successfully get the Nigerian govt to chase out China, America will not bounce on those vacant lithium, rare-earth or solid mineral sites?

HacheNoire:
We need to get something straight.

The United States in North America, is proposing a bill to target Chinese mining in Nigeria, Africa.

Someone should please make it make sense. This is a combo of imperialism and colonialism.

Meaning of our economy decides to shift from the USD to booster our trade, we will be annihilated.

Slavery never stopped, the dynamics was what changed.

I think the Nigerian government need to deliberate if it’s still worth it to celebrate Independence Day.

It is just a proposed bill which is subject to further consideration by our legislature.

India, Brazil, Nigeria are seen by global powers as emerging powers of the next decade due to their abundant mineral / human capacity.

America is trying to sustain her hegemony in Africa. And if that will happen, China's grip on the continent must be undermined.

It's a a geo-political chess game.

That is why USA have been trying to carefully negotiate terms on issues with the Nigerian govt instead of force.

Trump has realized that calling Africa shithole was an error. America must strive to sustain it's control of all regions.

Any global power that must control Africa, must find a way to control Nigeria.

Wizardslayer:
If you think Americans are terrible wait until you know more about the Russians and the Chinese.

Americans are the far manageable demons compared to the Chinese and the Russians.

I honestly agree with you. Americans are generally fair minded people relatively.

But rising cost of goods globally which is quite a resultant effect of excessive dollar printing and other variables have put many countries on the edge of survival.
Reason why most countries even within the G7 are looking up to China for transactions now is because of survival and costs.

Trump wants to continue putting the American bills on the entire world, but the yoke of it is getting too heavy on most countries.

Even though I agree that the Chinese might be culprit to this thing.

However, the core aim of Trump's foreign policies are geared towards curbing China's global influence and rising dominance.

So, Nigeria needs to carefully address the situation.

China's emergence gave the world (esp third world countries like Nigeria) access to many techs and products at an affordable rate. Even thou China has her hidden corrupt issues.

Most countries will not be able to afford anything if global manufacturing is returned to the US. And it's not something that is feasible or that can be achieved quickly. Imagine the cost of an ordinary WAHL clipper made in USA at N85,000. That is more than monthly salary of some Lagosians.

DeLaRue:
I would guess that not more than 30 % of Nigerians in the UK make up to £50,000 per year.

The man's suggestion that most Nigerians in the UK don't make up to £200,000 is off the mark.

I don't think up to 2% of Nigerians in the UK make up to that amount. Even amongst the native population, very very few make £200,000 annually.

Na so UK easy?

Hmm, if they earn £50,000 per annum, if average house rent in the UK falls within £1,200 to £1,500 per month, excluding other essential bills and taxes. .

Is there really any much difference between the hard life or suffering in Nigeria and that which is presented to them over there in the UK?

Asides food security which is obviously better over there.

TheTundeMuniru:
Whatever difference you're talking about, that's a solid construction right there.
Julius Berger won't do more than this.

The construction work was done by Julius Berger.

From my physical observation, that bridge shows the clear difference between a Julius Berger (German) contstruction work and the Chinese firm's construction works.

The precision to details, procedure and safety standards in always the difference.

Excessive usage of earbuds/pods at high level volumes will gradually wear them out, and that results into your current situation. Once they are destroyed, you start getting a sound.

Mcslize:
So what do you suggest? We should all marry Oloshos cuz virginity does not guarantee good character?

If you genuinely ask God for a leading, he will guide you to the best woman for you. That is, if you can be patient.

God takes his time. He will work on you first and work on a prospective woman concurrently.

God will surely give you a purpose first, and create your identity and pathway in it firmly, b4 he permits a woman to walk with you.

He wld also chastise her character issues and correct her from seeing all things in a selfish way.

Women respect and responds to a man when they can see clarity, gradual fulfilment, responsibility and reliability.

He doesn't necessarily have to be rich, but they can see that he is going somewhere.

PulaPower:
Don’t marry her at all or let her be a virgin if you must marry her..

Truth is, virginity does not guarantee peace and right attitude from the woman.
I have lots of practical (real life) stories.

Most of the so-called virgin ladies have hidden desires or fantasies that they will still activate or pursue later as the life cycle of the marriage evolves.

It's only God by his mercy that can link a man to a loving and truly understanding wife.

Baba don realize say he is one of the reasons the US monitoring and intelligence team is in Nigeria.

They pick their spying and scanning signals from multi-layered infrstructure (bye-passing the Nigerian Army). They will do him a strong thing soon. Just watch.

Lol. The wife is the employer and the boss.

She puts him under daily sales performance target. And beats him up if he does not meet up.

The man needs to know that he has lost the marriage. Obviously the lady will treat a dog better than him.

He needs to find a solution to the kid(s), and walk out of that prison ASAP.

esnbrutality:
This is actually very disgusting.

A woman can't HEAD the HOUSEHOLD of GOD.

There is a reason in the Bible why MEN are always called upon as the HEAD.

These Europeans are really deplorable in their useless wokeness. Na wa!!

Truth.

Women are lovely people.

However, the pillar of genuine and Godly priesthood is in consistency with following and enthrenching the order of the Lord by faith and holiness in a given ground.

A true priest does not wave to the storms of the flesh and that is where the issue is with a woman priesthood.

Every woman remains a woman. Just as Eve, she is naturally weak and limited towards resisting the attractive lures of the serpent / dragon.

True priesthood is deep, pure and consistent. It is a shame that the church has deviated from ancient fire and power.

Trump himself is planning to visit Xi in April this year to negotiate deals for the US.

Whereas, he is blasting Canada and UK leaders for visiting and signing deals with China.

When is Xi going to visit any of these countries? He is such a powerful man in today's global order.

Most of these Trump's silly initiatives willl be reversed by the next American president. Esp. if he comes from the democrats.

He is running a country like a casino business. He is power drunk and repulsive.

Lol. . Emotional woman.

She would caliberate the weight of her utterances in few days time.

If Trump opens up ur file and dump you and family in Naija, watin you wan talk when u see videos of 100 people being kidnapped and tens of them been killed per day in the North and Middle belt?

You go do another video calling for Tinubu to transport you back to USA?

Guyman02:
I thought America said the problem was drug dealing in Venezuela, how come it's only Oil that they talk about since the abduction of Maduro and killing 83 of his guards and citizens

US have huge oil reserves.

But the US produces Light crude oil, while most of their refineries are designed for processing Heavy crude.

Heavy crude is what has been sustaining their industries. That is why they have been importing.

The cost of overhauling the vast American refineries to adjust to the current demand for heavy crude is extremely huge and unprofitable for the govt.

That is the main reason Trump has been scanning for oil everywhere with weapons. He wants to hijack.

Second reason is that he hopes to limit or truncate oil supplies to China, and reduce or frustrate demand for the Russian oil.

Hedonisco:
TSMC and NVIDIA are so so important to the world.

And ASML in Netherlands.

Powerful firms.

I hope you guys can now see why Donald Trump is very arrogant and misbehaving.

Just check the location and scale of most of those assets in the US. Let's not talk about their military asset.

Invest in gold, it has the least worth volatility.

It's obvious China is coming. . With reference to the list. But It will take them at least 15 years from now to achieve the American feat.

CaptainFM1:
We still need more competitors. Antics or no antics, we are at his mercy unless more players enter the market.

Sure. One single plant cannot service a whole country.

Even US and Canada with their enormous oil reserves and several functioning refineries still import PMS a lot.

I think the boy takes a fair share of his father and mother.

I also think they have a happy home. Atleast, based on outward reflections. The lady seems to be quite a good and understanding wife.

Wish them to best of their desires.

FreeStuffsNG:
Trouble has already started and he has made a smart move.

China earned it. China taught everyone that it is possible to move trade away from US and make huge economic prosperity progress.

Last year, China diversified trade away from US and recorded a record-breaking 20% surge in trades last year, same year Trump imposed tariffs of more than 100%.

While France and EU were wasting time in meetings with Trump Hon trade deal talks, China has moving its trade away from US such that today, China can successfully trade without significant trade with US. It was a humble pie for the west and they're now running to China to learn.


EU countries just started selling off their bonds (credit line to US) while China has been selling hers since last year.

China earned the flowers. In a year, US economy struggled, China grew its trade surplus by a whopping 20% and sitting on $1.2 Trillion dollars!

Trump has chickened out on the tariff threat at Davos today. It became clear to him that US will not survive the collective resolve of the G7 and EU.

The US bonds will still be kept for now as a tool to caution Trump.
Even the US military bases could collectively be considered for closure by EU.
Trump's eyes are clear now.

He should learn to negotiate and accept that America will have to compete against China.

Macron, be calculative. Just take note that flooding of Chinese EVs, electornics, mobile devices, raw materials etc will further escalate unemployment cases in France and the EU.

No country can beat the Chinese when it comes to pricing. Because their govt subsidize their biz manufacturing and exporting costs. Plus their labour cost is also very low.

China will not import goods from France commensurately, becoz they are trickish when it comes to balancing trade.

As for Carney and Canada, he also need to fight his emotion. Too much synergy with China as a US neibour will trigger Trump's aggression. If China starts having installations within Canada, US will either attack Canada and try to take over it, or change the leadership just as they did to Venezuella.

There is nothing like repentent bandits or terrorists.

The northern Nigeria is so difficult in carrying along towards a healing for Nigeria.

They are so filled with all sorts of hidden agenda. Yet, how far has their so called Sharia taken them?

It is only in the South West and recently middle belt (Kogi etc) region that we are hearing of arrests of Kidnappers and bandits.

North is an exception. Despite the huge series of attacks they have experienced. In the Northern states, we only hear of peace negotiation with those bandits.

We have a serious issue collectively as a country.

43Ronin:
Morocco can't play, just hype. If you watched their match against mali you will know that super eagles no try. Senegal will beat them

I was highly disappointed with the super eagles play against Morocco.

They made Morocco look like prime Brazil.

I am not a RCCG member. However, when you see a man that has served God globally in ministry for over 40 years without any major scandals, and the Lord has permitted him to live above 83 years in good health. . There are some good reasons God kept them alive till now.

No human is truly perfect.

Look for things as fruits / covenants / oil / virtues / you can tap or gain from such old mighty trees before God finally cut them off the ground.

Stop looking for criticisms in them. But seek wisdom and mercy of the Lord for a better and more fulfilling journey of life.

Personally, I applaud some of Trump's right-wing ideologies and fights.

However, his illegal planned seizure of Greenland will be his biggest mistake and that of the US. It will further cement the isolation of USA from its allies and the world in general.

Canada just struck some highly significant partnership deals with China this week. Hence cutting off the US.

Mexico is considering more diversification from the American market. Brazil is already with BRICS.

So which spine will the American international trade and partnerships leverage on if Europe is gone?

Africa? That trump sees as shithole?

Reality is that the rest of the the world want respect from their partners. US have to Taylor it's geopolitical goals along that line.

lightuplightup:
Point of correction, this is not the primary purpose of the Church. Its not wrong for a church to give grant. Dont go and rubbish d other church that is not giving grant. To Appraise the Church , start with their primary purpose which is to add spiritual value to its members. Connecting them to God. Physical empowerment, community service , building of roads are secondary. Don't exchange the primary purpose of Government to the Church

You are truly knowledgeable of the purpose of the calling of God.
Good response.

In Nigeria, the church headquarters will be filled to the brim next week Sunday as usual.

Infact, the man will organize a crusade very soon at Surulere Stadium in Lagos with thousands trooping in.

That is Nigerians for you.
