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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Brendaniel:
While funds are being starved to other contractors, ministries and agencies, Chagoury is getting funds for low priority projects being hyped as high priority including using loans to pay him in advance.

My bother you have said it just as it is.

By the time this Tinubu's govt is over, the diverted funds in the hands of Tinubu and some the power players will make Godwin Emefiole look like angel Michael.

I just pity the masses that are have been plagued with so much inflation and insecurity of their lives and properties.

Tinubu has demonstrated from the beggining of his administration that he does not care about welfare of the people.

If he is responsible president, Nigeria is making excess profit currently from the global spike in oil price. Hence the govt shld allocate some margin of the proceeds to truly subsidize the end price of PMS and diesle to mitigate the sufferings of the masses only within the duration of the war

Nigeria is one of the few countries that can refine and distribute it's full demand capacity domestically. Yet Nigeria is currently the No 1 country with highest price increase margin all over the world since he war started.

But as expected, the only thing he will do is to share the exceed funds to the governors, counsellors etc. And tell the masses to make them accountable.

He is such a smart terribly greedy man. As much as we hate Buhari, Jonathan or Obasanjo, those guys were far more concerned Abt the living condition of the people and not just about their pockets.

*** Tinubu govt fully weaponized poverty and share peanuts as paliatives to masquerade it's face.

Skodiswayze:
Most populous black nation wei dey beg for loan, can’t you use your population for your betterment like India and China, keep fooling yourself. You’re comparing UK to Nigeria, when last has the UK political leaders visited Nigeria on a state visit. Most populous black nation who doesn’t have electricity that war torn Iran still boast of. Kemi is bigger than your garbage president globally that one that is being hand-escorted like a toddler all over Europe. NOONE WILL WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH THE POVERTY CAPITAL OF THE WORLD

Lol! Bro, u dey vex o. Take it easy o.

I see Kemi as very intelligent and brilliant.

However, you can't compare her to the president of a sovereign state.

She is just a senior politician within the British circles. She does not have authority or command over the state of UK or hold any influence over other countries of the world in such capacity.

I don't like Tinubu, becoz he is unfit for the role health and mental wise, but he is relatively a bigger personality in this context.

Wao, the total is not even up to $1 billion.

That's not really a gross impact in terms financial cost to the US if that figure is true.

Trump's major aim is to obliterate Iran's missile / drone development capacity and programme.

Iran developed several fragmented under-ground missile cities and launchers. Once the US is clear that a good number of those bunkers have been blown up, US will evacuate Iran.

Hmm, may be they should transfer about 3/4 of those weapons to Lagos or Abuja or any other safer place in the south.

Becoz this arms capturing thing is a continous swing between the Nigerian Army and Boko boys.

If they keep it with them there. . Boko boys will raid their base again and cart away everything as usual.

*** If Nigerian Army wants to truly do their job they know what to do. I believe d reason this mission was so effective was becoz of their arms recovery that was carted away last 2 weeks or so and displayed by the terrorists on social media. They know they can't afford to allow such massive weapons and ammunition in the hands of those Boko boys.

I just loved this lran tactics
Any land wey allow USA touch us go collect
Make everything kukuma scatter

Eventually, Iran will give the US / Israel and the affected nations with global coalition a concessive premise to wipe them out so as to stop their escalation.

Iran will be destroyed if they think they can continue to cause global blockage. It is Iranians that will suffer it eventually. There is already a plan for them and their proxies.

Iran is demonstrating the same traits of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Fulani bandits, Hamas, Hezbollah etc.

If they can't get their way, they destroy all other things around them.

That is why we will never support a nuclear armed Iran.

Beautiful countries like Qatar, UAE, Saudi, Bahrain etc have been investing their oil proceeds into developmental structures and facilities.

The only thing Iran does for dacades is to build engineers for war weapons and ammunitions. They want to expand and control the region tru fear, but since US/Israel are destroying their weapons / power base, they feel they must rather destroy the entire region. Rather than thinking positively and progressively like the others.

If Milo (Nestle) which is the market leader in their beverage segment with 42% market share made about 58 million Pounds profit after tax year end 2025, then investing that amount in Nigeria can be seen as feasible exposure for the company.

Currently, Ovaltine is number 3 after Milo and Bounvita.

Milo currently have a functioning production factory in Ogun State, so it's a good idea.

If all variables remain constant, they will recoup their investment in very few years.

Chachalogo:
I'm feeling ashamed on behalf of Nigeria. I have never seen this level of cluelessness in my entire life.

Spot on, my brother. It's very sad indeed.

We have clowns ruling us in this country.

Why do Nigerians sell all their houses and properties in Nigeria and japa to ancient places like the UK with ancient facilities and structures coupled heavily taxed systems.

Most of them dress like nuisance and house boys with multiple menial jobs. . Yet it's hard for them to get ends meet.

Let Iran initiate the extreme escalation. Then, US and allies can have a good premise to destroy them.

After this war, US's hegemony in the middle east will be extremely impacted.

Also, Israel cannot keep being on the defensive or receiving end of Iran's missiles and drones extensively. If they can't destroy their stock piles, they must engage a twisted appraoch.

This war is extremely complicated. Iran has nothing to loose per say. If they go down completely, they are ready to draw the entire middle east downwards with them.

Trump and Bibi have triggered a very extensive escalation this time around.

England just keeps on finishing Chelsea FC.

Since they took it forcefully from Roman and handed it over to this clueless American ownership the club has fell in-terms of ambition and goals.

Now they are stretching it further with confusing restrictions even if not going to be effected immediately. How about Manchester City?

From Tattoos. . To this one.

This guy needs to quit Pastoring for now at least.

He is brewing subtle doctrinal disorder and subtle immorality to the young ones.

Trump is messing himself up the more.

What he is trying to create therein is an undue World War.

He has already distabilized the entire middle east.

Non of his allies will count it as risk-worthy to send $billions worth of war ships to Strait of Hormuz especially with the way Trump has diminished them recently.

I know it's hard for him to pull out now due to American investments in the region and Israel. Coupled with the fact that he doesn't want to touch or blow up the Iranian people.

He must quickly de-escalate and pull out the US, and perhaps conceive to forgo the the American hegemony and properties in that region.

That is the best price to pay for this error.

HacheNoire:
That’s a good one!

They sponsor terrorism in Africa and think it will be well with them.

Iran should please face Saudi Arabia! That’s a traitor that also needs to be dealt with!

Sold out the continent!

That's the issue with you people.

Beautiful countries like UAE, Saudi, Qatar. . that have used their oil proceeds over the years to create lovely facilities and wonderful atmosphere for themselves. . You guys will prefer the Oshodi/thugs of Arab nations like Iran to destroy those lovely countries. . Just because they don't support your cause.

WriteerNg:

Is that why they couldn't fight Iran on their own? Because of their excessive power?

They had to bring in Israel, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, France and UK to fight one Iran.

Na Iran i blame sha. If no be their foolishness, by now dem for don get at least 100 nukes with long range ICBMs wey fit cover the entire continental USA.

As Trump dey boast, Iranian ICBMs go dey hammer every nook and cranny of US mainland.

Bro, this news is actually fake.

US must change their approach b4 fighting another serious war. Conventional war pattern has changed.

They must quickly focus on producing mass cheap war weapons. Like cheap drones and interceptors, more advanced laser detectors, more ICBM and hypersonic missiles.

The Chinese, Iranian, Russians etc have built many cheaper and effective weapons.

If this war stretches to 3 more weeks or more, they will be waisting more than $3 trillion to sustain it.

Their 3 aircraft carriers in the sea can be destroyed in this war if care is not taken. They are just lucky that swarm drones and very fast Chinese anti-ship missiles have not yet been launched at them.

Once strategic aim has been achieved, Trump needs to pull out of the war otherwise things will become more uncontrollable.

But where were his voice and curses all these days/years that bandits and terrorists have been bombing, brutally killing and kidnapping innocent Nigerians in thousands everyday?

We have a serious problem in this country.

Only Chinese vessels have been having free and constant passage.

Infact some Western vessels had to claim Chinese origin yesterday, but their cover was later exposed.

Iran blowing up neibouring countries and their facilities / US facilities, demonstrates a lack of destructive control. That is same trait / spirit the Boko Haram, Fulani herdmen etc displays.

They kill christians today, and kill Muslims in their mosques tomorrow so that their real image and purpose will not be understood.

In the war in October last year and this current one, Israel had been parrading their skies unabated with over 200 war planes. Including the American war fleet and bombers that are domiciled there. . If the Israel or US wanted to bomb civil Iranians and their properties, they would have leveled the place to complete dust by now.

***A nuclear armed Iran is a danger to world's progressive order and peace. I say firmly.

It is a shame that China keeps funding terrorism everywhere secretly with a view of sustaining their commercial stronghold. They can only thrive temporarily on such pattern.

Na wa for nairaland o.

This was a statement he made about 7 days ago.

The UK's under heavy Direct Foreign Investments 4rm several Arab nations, plus electoral voting considerations. Hence the pressure from Stammer.

And Trump has been very difficult to relate with recently (due to his protectionism policies) making the USA very unpredictable and highly undependable as a very close ally.

So I can understand how tough it is for Stammer.

But I tell you, just like Carney of Canada, it will still be better for both leaders to stay on US's side and manage Trump's troubles for the next 2 years than jumping to the Arabs and China respectively.
