Anti aircraft launcher, ammunition drones recently. . These guys are actually preparing for a war. But our security services are still sleeping in my opinion.

God help Nigeria.

CondemnBattery:
The unite Kingdom will soon be islamized. Nothing to see here.

Bunch of cowards

You are absolutely correct.

dederocs:
We must indegenise our local economy policy, this is critical. Step out of using global rates for crude for now. We are a sovereign nation. It's better for the bulk of the money to be in circulation rather than be in the hands of political leaders or government.

Hmm. If we pull from OPEC and start dictating our own price and production quota, it still does not solve the issue honestly.

The issue is not with revenue, but proper allocation, supervision and usage of the derived proceeds.

Our process is too weaved with corruption. That's why we are in same shoes as Venezuella etc.

Was this not the man they said was sick all this while?

Thank God is back now. Hope he has rested well and treated himself properly?

Iran, just go and attack or blow up the American navy vessels that are causing blockage to ur exports as you threatened and stop running around like chickens.

Is it Saudi, Qatar, UAE or Bahrain that is blocking the strait?

Risingblue008:
Everybody knows trump is too greedy and self centered and an antichrist

The Pope is also trying to politicize his stance.

Since the office of the Pope was created through church administrative voting plus governmental influence, I don't blame him from seeing things from a political or shallow point.

Trump can be very erratic, but he is more moral and strong-willed for Christ than the Pope.

Can that Pope face LQBTQ within the Catholic or the church by his own?

Has that Pope made any genuine attempt concerning Christian killings in Nigeria? Despite the huge numbers.

Like him or not, Trump is a warrior that God somehow has been able to use in this age in the US and the world at large.

fineboynl:
most of you don't understand the strait.

Iran don't need to enforce it
Tankers are scared even if us want to protect them.

Also they can shot from the mountains.

You are absolutely correct.

Look Iranians have lots of mines, drones, and weapons that they plan to use there. It's so complicated.

For me, I just believe both parties are at extreme levels right now and are ready for further escalation.

Trump wants Iran to blow up his vessels. Honestly, things will not be funny if Iran try such.

1. Trump is using the navy flock as a bait to hit Iran at extreme levels.

He wants the IRGC to blow up his navy vessels. Honestly, the repercusison will be too much on the Iranians.

2. I think he is also trying to block it bcoz of IRGC's dedollarization attempt (the toll fees the Iranians are taking in Yuan and other currencies).

Let everything choke for everyone.

Heffalump:
The way it's going, the IRGC will beg for ceasefire and they won't get it until outright surrender.

They will always get ceasefire with US if they are ready to calm down and stop uranium enrichment. That is the core contention at this point.

But Iran will not rest until it is able to dominate the gulf tru fear and suppression and eliminate or supress that which it sees and cancerous, which are the Zionites and/or the US.

Israel in particular (and US) will also never rest until they see that Iran is disarmed of extreme weapons that can threaten their existence.

The enmity is deep and started thousands of years ago.

It's only a very strong man's forceful hit that can reset or change the resolve of the Iranians now. At least, temporarily.

ReacherSaidNoth:
You just know it's the black guy, no amount of exposure can't rid them of religious delusion

Was it the desert god Yahweh or instructions from his storybook that took them to space?

Rubbish.

Lol. I have seen and heard of lots of daring people with words like yours.

Today, most of them, if not all, are evangelists or flamming missionaries for Christ.

A man does not know God, until God decides to reveal Himself to the the man.

FreeStuffsNG:
You are ignorant of how global economy works and how hegemony is destroyed. I am sure that you do not even know that China is ahead of US in many areas, including by civilisation.

If you know how petrodollars work to power US hegemony including in media (gulf countries are just about to pump billions of petrodollars to acquire the parent company of CNN) , you will not be ignorant anymore of how China is now the de facto Super power.

Those billions are staying in China central bank , not US federal reserve bank. Those transactions will soon balloon too and break the back of US bond market as interests on US bonds increase thereby raising the already crushing debt of US.

In less than 5 years, you will soon know what hits you is the reality playing out before you now but you do not understand because of ignorance.

US was destroyed and killed from within, Iran, Russia and China just nailed the coffin.

Bro, you need to leave nairaland and google the subject points properly. Thanks.

FreeStuffsNG:
“The Middle East conflict may have acted as a catalyst,” said Ding Shuang, chief economist for Greater China and North Asia at Standard Chartered, citing rising demand for yuan settlement, particularly in oil trade.

Oil trade transactions from middle east countries is now settled in yuan!

Iraq has technically been liberated from US that has been receiving Iraqi oil proceeds since after the Gulf war that sacked Saddam Hussein on the lie that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

It is over for Trump and almost over for the US dollars.

I am an admirer of China's ambition. However, China is not yet there at all.

It will take nothing less than 15 to 20 years to displace the USD. If current prevailing variables remain constant.

Do you know that Petrol-dollar (oil based tradings) only contribute to about 20% of SWIFT transactions?

Other non-oil related transactions such as electronics, AI & tech, construction, food, clothing etc constitute about 80%. Even if Iraq and some other middle eastern countries reject USD now, yes it will affect US, but they will still be fine ultimately.

The system globally has been entrenched to favor dollar receipts, and will take a while to get it changed.

CPC (China) will have to earn global trust and transparency that it does not manipulate it's currency value and it's reserve status unduly. Which currently they are not doing.

China still have long way to go thou. Currently USD have 58% of global foreign reserve while Yuan have just 2%.

A supposed mediator is not supposed to be one-sided, biased or emotional.

Who even gave Pakistan the table to broker a ceasefire deal between these nations?

Pakistani values will surely be in-line with the Iranians, even if not verbally expressed.

I don't think a ceasefire is realistic at this point. Let the fire exchanges continue. Let's see how it goes.

Joshcoli:
One thing I know that is sure is Iran will not hesitate to use nuclear bombs if they have it, they would turn the Middle East into radioactive ash.

Any government that sends women and children to stand as human shields has already crossed the line, so unleashing nuclear weapons wouldn’t slow them down for a second.

Those that are hailing Iran deep down knows what you are saying is the truth. But it's a religious chess game.

Look at how their proxies even in Nigeria is cutting human beings with machete and cutlass and gunshots every hour per day. Shedding so much blood everywhere.

Trump and the Pentagon can never trust Iran.

Iran also can never trust Trump.

I am sorry Iran don't have the cards currently.

Iran is the global hub (the powerhouse) and source of instigation for Hamas, Hezbollah, Houtis, Isis etc. That's the spirit driving there.

Even you will notice that when the terrorists in Nigeria recently felt like Iran is defeating or scattering Trump, they started killing and kidnapping with intensity everywhere. It was only yesterday and today that they paused becoz they are awaiting the fate of Iran.

If Iran had just 20% of the kind of power that the USA posseses, truth is, the whole world by now would have been bowing down to Allah Akbar by fire by force.

Truth is, if IRGC think they can fustrate Trump or a ceasefire, US will not attack the civil Iranians surely, but their economy, insfastructure and millitary will cry poverty extremely within the next few decades.

At this point, I will say even Venezuellans are wiser than Iranians.

You will notice that we have not heard a case of killings kidnapping and bombings around Nigeria today. Which is strange.

Those guys are trying to observe the fate of their masters (the source of their inspiration, Iran) today.

Oh, I felt they were bragging and dragging with Trump to do his worst.

What did his father achieve as a leader of the nation?

The worst and the most carefree president.

Almost destroyed the economy completely to ruins.

Instead of this young man to go and hide his face in shame. Well, I trust the northerners, they will still worship him and vote for him. Nigeria is an amazing country.

The rescued soldier is a US air force colonel.
About a dozen aircrafts were sent for the mission. Yes, helicopters and possibly C-130 was hit. US is more concerned abt the safety of their soldier. They have more than enough stock of war planes.

That clownish Iranian IRGC spokesman is just trying to massage their collective ego.

By time Trump and IDF starts hitting them further from Monday or Tuesday, their eyes will clear.

*** At the end of this war, Iran will be seriously economically and millitarily delapitated.
USA's global hegemony may be hit especislly in the middle east and western EU, and dollarization may be a bit undermined.
Israel will also have some vast economic damage.

Richtaiwo:
Between FFK and this man, who was once comfortably sipping tea with a despot yet now presents himself as a democrat, whose character truly deserves closer scrutiny?

The picture above is a low quality digitally manipulated image. Very fake.

Jovi10:
Lmao the so called world power that cannot face ordinary Iran na who Una dey talk say go defeat Russia? 🤣🤣

A10 warthog and F15 Eagle are some of the cheapest war jets on the US's fleet.

The are sent specifically to do the dirty low altitude combats in this war. They are not stealth and it is expected that some of them will get hit by enemy fire.

US have extensive number of war aircrafts to be honest. By far the largest stock in the world. Don't think these loses will mean anything much.

HacheNoire:
The invincible is now visible! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Bad market for the US military industrial complex!

I doubt if any county is still going to buy those overpriced military junks again.

Actually, its an F15 that was shot down and not F35. F35s are stealth jets. They will be difficult to track.

The F15s fly at low altitude and they are specifically used in this war to combat Iranian Shahed drones.

Even stealth jets are not completely invisible to a detecting rader, it's their flying altitude and maneuvering speed that makes them extremely difficult to track down.

US has almost 14,000 war aircrafts. Iran war will affect them but they will be fine ultimately. It is Iran just like Ukraine in the east and Israel that will suffer the most.

Their major prayer should just be that Saudi, UAE, Qatar etc does not dump the US dollar and usage of American war machines after this war.

The major strength of the US comes from it's allies and dollarization.

Trump has made a mess of the great works of their founding fathers. For G7 countries to be relating with Trump and the USA at a far distance during this war, shows how much damage Trump has done to matters of trust and reliability.

You don't talk to your partners as slaves or keep belittling great people. It's so wrong.

I believe Iran has an issue with Terrorism. But, let CIA and Mossad do more deep and forensic research about their weapon hideouts and capacity b4 taking a decision.

Striking Venezualla, Iran, even contemplating Nigeria are also geared towards crippling China's productivity.
China feeds the word now. There is nothing anyone can do about it at this stage. It's too late.

VOsimhen144:
All bank owners are modern days Colonial masters, they have enslaved their workers.

majority of bankers can't even point out what they have achieved after working for 20 years in the bank.

They have been USED from their youthful age to old age,,, helping another man aggressively to build his dreams.

Actually, the subject employees made a choice. Every man walk in a pathway by the reason of his choice.

They were not forced to be continual slaves to the corporate.

I pulled out of the rat race at age 40. Yes, the decision was informed by a revelation from God (thank God), but a man will still have to be bold to sacrifice and seperate himself from the conventional process.

No company in Nigeria will pay N1m to N2m per month in Nigeria today and will allow you to be waking up by 10 am or anytime that is convenient. They will rather oppress you with heavy KPIs, pressurized strategic meetings or constant crazy performance reviews and goal targets.

givedemwotowoto:
Nigerians will regret not fighting back like their lives depend on it, if they let Tilumbu and his crew have their way again in 2027. Today is still Christmas compared to what is coming if he's re-elected without a "fierce" fight. You have to match their energy else they will destroy you completely.

Tinubu will win the election very easily. That's the truth.
He is not like Goodluck Jonathan. He is a very skilled, desperate and strategic politician. Not the best of leaders thou.

Peter Obi that I was even thinking was the best of the lot during last election has proven recently that is not consistent and does not have a firm or clear direction.

I love Sowore, but Nigerian system is not ripe for such a young mind that has a strong will for due process. He also has issues with experience at the top.

So, who else do we have that will oppose him? Atiku Abubakar is a waste of time and old age. He should go and rest.

Dangote's dream has finally come true. At least temporarily.

If he is the only one in-charge of the pricing and supply of petrol, he will be able to maintain high prices for a long period of time.

If we have 2 or 3 other refineries in the country, price adjustments will be quickly dramatic and competitive.

It is well with Nigeria. Hmm.

But our president is saying he has shared our monies with our Governors and LG Counsellors.

That we should go and meet them and hold them accountable. That's all that concerns him.

The truth is, Nigerians are happy with their leadership and their way of life. Just conduct a poll on nairaland now.

Dangote and Baba Tinubu cashing out season. Transfer the entire effect upon the masses as expected without considering any cushioning approach.

Nigeria is producing oil. All a truly concerned leader needs to do in this season is to discount the price of supplied crude to Dangote refinery. Becoz we are making excess margin from sales internationally which can balance the books.

Greedy clowns.

Brendaniel:
But the economy can afford corruption abi?

You have got time responding to those kind of guys.

They will always twist the proofs becoz they have hidden causes. Stop waisting your time with such.

nonny1212:
Great information for people to learn.

I knew this a long time.

A 10,000mah ankers power bank can outperform a 30,000 new age power bank.

The best power banks I have ever used are Anker 10,000 mAh and Redmi 20,000 mAh models.

I have tested a lot.

The battle is between the two brands in this segment. Long life and effecient output with both batteries.

ResidentSnitch:
If you are sincere to yourself, Iran's message these days carries more power, intent and confidence than that of US.

It is because US have everything to lose. Iran is ready to destroy itself and the region.

It's (US) hegemony in the region which based on its' strategic allies is under a stretch.

The impact on spiked oil prices impacts global and american businesses profitability.

The Strait of Hormuz blockage affects global and American vessels and businesses are incurring daily loss and increased demorage.

The longer it takes, the more $ billions will be required in approval to sustain it.

US is projecting that a US/China war may occur soon, hence does not want to over-utilize or waiste their weapons on this one.
