Russians don't shy away from war

Back in the USSR! Furious Russians say they feel like they're reliving Soviet-era shortages as huge queues return to Moscow amid scramble to withdraw cash as sanctions bite

War in Ukraine: The Russians leaving Russia for Finland.

At Vaalimaa, Finland's border crossing with Russia - 120 miles east of Helsinki - buses and cars stop for passport and customs checks. These aren't Ukrainians, they're Russians, and although the flow isn't heavy, it is constant.

Some people are anxious to get out of Russia because there has been a persistent rumour that President Vladimir Putin's government might soon introduce martial law to deal with demonstrations against the invasion of Ukraine.

With flights to Europe halted, the only way out of the country is by car - crossing this border - or by train.

We spoke to one young Russian woman who was leaving for the West - one of the lucky ones who had an EU visa before the sanctions were announced. She was in despair at what has been happening.
People in Ukraine are our people - our family," she said. "We shouldn't be killing them." Would she think of going back, I asked? "Not while our dreadful government is there. It is so, so sad."

She said most Russians don't want this war, but they risk going to jail if they try to stand up to Putin.
In Finland, there's immense sympathy for people like her - just as there is for Ukraine and its inhabitants. This sympathy, and the fear that Russia might lash out at other neighbours such as Finland itself, is changing attitudes to Finland's traditional leanings toward neutrality.

According to the latest opinion polls, a growing majority of Finns believe that it's time for their country to join Nato and access the protection that membership of the alliance would bring.
Back in Helsinki, the train from St Petersburg is pulling in, carrying hundreds more people anxious to flee Russia. Most trains are fully booked, with ticket prices soaring.

The amount of money passengers leaving Russia can bring is limited. The rouble is in a state of collapse; the Russian economy is threatened by sanctions and the withdrawal of many large Western companies. Russia's government is desperate to avoid a run on the banks.

Will sanctions against wealthy Russians cause them to turn on President Putin? It's certainly not impossible, but it's unlikely to force him to stop the war on Ukraine.

More worrying for him is the call by the Russian oil giant Lukoil for a halt to the invasion. If the main elements of the Russian economy are turning against him, he will find it much harder to carry on without making big changes - such as the introduction of martial law.

Another woman who has left Russia, this time for Istanbul, told us by phone she had been terrified of a return to life as it was under the Soviet Union.

"I'm 30, I haven't seen the worst... the repressions, the secret police," she said. "I had a very clear fear that if I'm not going to fly out right now, I will not be able to fly out ever."
On the one hand, it seems this is the moment to get out. On the other, there is a legitimate fear that you will not be able to see your friends and family for God knows how long, if ever."

If martial law were introduced, Mr Putin would be free to do what he wanted, without having to worry about damaging protests in the streets. He has already made it clear to French President Emmanuel Macron that he won't stop until he has occupied the whole of Ukraine - and a French official who listened in on their phone call said, afterwards, that things could get a great deal worse.

How? Well, the nuclear option could be getting decidedly closer. It's a frightening prospect.

No wonder Russians who don't want any part of the invasion or the trouble it's creating inside Russian towns and cities are desperate to get out of the country - and make a living for themselves outside.

You are the real ignorant here. Afghanistan is currently under an extremist Government lead by Talibans and you are donating money that is not enough to spend to them? Why is ASUU on strike, why are we been kidnapped on our roads and why do we have high unemployment rate? If you think he is right then you are one of our biggest problem in this country. What is the difference between GMB donating to Taliban and donating to Boko Haram? Should we look far before we conclude about B position of terrorism?

OIC commends Buhari's 'generous donation' of $1 million to Afghanistan ...

“Nigeria Senate approves loan request for president Buhari which he then squanders as he pleases – travels, birthday bash at Dubai and donates to the radical Islamic state of Afghanistan. As he pleases, who did this to us?”

“How can Buhari, who is a perpetual borrower, donate $1 million to Afghanistan, while we have many internal crises at hand that need attention? Buhari’s body language speaks volumes. Taliban and Boko Haram”.

“With our out-of-this-world load of issues, loan burden and perennial deficit in every aspect of our national life, somebody deems it fit to ‘dash’ (gift) a Taliban-controlled state, $1m of our almost ‘expired’ foreign reserve”.

“Mr. President is donating $1 million to Afghanistan but has no money to pay ASUU. What a misplace of priority. Religion before the well being of Nigerians. President Buhari Donates $1m To Afghanistan, we are finished”.

“Blood of Jesus Christ. If a Southern Christian president donates the same amount to a Christian country, some hypocritical bloodletting leeches will burn down the country. What is the difference between Nigeria and Afghanistan today? It’s a big shame on brainless Buhari”.

Following the donation of $1 million by President Muhammadu Buhari to Afghanistan, a section of Nigerians have expressed anger over the president’s gesture amid hardship ravaging the country.

Recall that the Secretary-General of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, OIC, Hissein Brahim Taha had in a statement, disclosed that Buhari donated the money over the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan.

“This donation comes in time to add a new momentum to OIC’s efforts to contribute to easing the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan and to help in catering for the needs of millions of Afghan people, including women and children”, the statement added.

However, some Nigerians who took to their Twitter handles to express their feelings, tackled the president for allegedly ignoring the numerous challenges in the country to donate such an amount to the Islamic nation.

Stupid USA They are now begging Iran to halt their plans of building Nuclear weapons. If this was 10 years ago, they would've been threatening Iran with sanctions, and not trying to reason or dialogue with them.
But since Trump had meted all the sanctions he and all foolish Americans could think of on iran, including cutting them from SWIFT, they no longer have any leverage over Iran. The only thing they can actually do to stop Iran from building Nukes is to invade them or dialogue with them. NOTE: Iran before being slapped with sanctions by the west NEVER contemplated anything about building Nukes. After the sanctions, their economy survived, they now started their nuke program, angering the west. But the west can't really do much anymore since they've unleashed all the sanctions in their arsenal on them.

Imagine you're in your father's house. You're a party lover. But each time you want to go to a party, maybe at a club, your father Threatens you that if you do, he will take the phone he bought for you, all the clothes, kick you away from his house (disowning you).

One day, you go to a party, hoping he wouldn't find out. You happened to be wrong. He got to know, somehow, and carried out all the threats he's been making. He took away all the things he bought for you and kicked you away.
You sufferred but somehow survived with the help of a friend. You now own your own house.

If let's say one day, a friend of yours invites you to a party, would you say..... "I will not go because my dad threatened me before that he'll kick me out of his house the moment he sees you in any party?" The answer is no. Your dad carried out all his threats on you already. He no longer has any leverage over you anymore. If someday he even sees you coming out of a night club, I doubt if he'll be able to do anything since there's nothing he can do to you again. We'll why I'm I saying this?

Boris Johnson while speaking for the west, immediately after Russia invaded Ukraine, bragged openly that they will cripple the economy of the Russian federation. They are trying their best now to make it happen. But the thing is, If Russia actually manages to survive this colossal sanctions that the west AKA the U.S. and lapdog have meted on her which I know they will with the help of china, THEN IT IS FINISHED!
The west will no longer have any leverage on Russia. They will have nothing that they will be able to use to threaten russia again if russia decides to do anything that is severely against their interest.
The west seem to be enjoying sanctioning russia now, I hope they don't end up regretting it in the future when the bear comes for their coconut heads. Bunch of murthafuckers

Apart from the Ezza-speaking clan, particularly the people of Umuezeokoha that has over 300 villages, if you are to calculate the number of Igbo-speaking villages in Benue State, outside Umuezeokaoha, you would be talking altogether about over 600 villages.

Three of the biggest markets in Benue are all in the Igbo-speaking part. The markets are Inikiri Ichari, Iddah, Iduokpe. There are also some Igbo speaking Idoma towns in Benue State.

How USA Became the Only Super Power of the World?


The period after the end of the Second World War saw the emergence of the United States as the pre-eminent military and economic power in the world.

Every part of the world came under the purview of US interests.

The US also viewed herself as a great “moral force” in the world. Many Americans liked to think that the period in which they were living could quite legitimately be described as the “American Century”.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the US became the only superpower in the world.

Padipadi:
Let God judge USA for their crimes.
And the same God ll judge Putin for his needless war on Ukraine.
And judge you WriterNig for asslicking.

After world war 2

Building the Postwar Peace

As the smoke cleared, the United States stood victorious and with unprecedented global power. In addition to towering as the world’s military heavyweight, the United States boasted the most valuable currency—the dollar—to which all other major currencies had become fixed. In addition, the country’s economy had taken off during the war, nearly doubling in size between 1939 and 1945, whereas Western Europe’s economy contracted by 18 percent and Japan’s was cut in half.

This economic and military strength uniquely positioned the United States to promote postwar peace and prosperity. And this time, instead of retreating to the Western Hemisphere as it did following World War I, the United States resolved to prop Europe back up and rebuild Japan.

In particular, the United States sought to ensure that Europe’s physical, economic, and political collapse did not allow the Soviet Union to expand its influence as the wartime alliance with Moscow began to transform into the geopolitical rivalry of the Cold War. To shore up the United States’ allies, Secretary of State George C. Marshall announced a multibillion-dollar aid plan in 1947. In addition, the United States agreed to provide military assistance to rebuild Western Europe’s armies, and in 1949, the United States, Canada, and ten European countries formed a military alliance known as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The cornerstone of this alliance was collective security, the pledge that an attack on one country would be treated as an attack on all. This groundbreaking peacetime alliance made the United States—with its outsized military strength—effectively the defender of Western Europe.

Likewise, in Asia, the United States occupied and assisted in the postwar reconstruction of Japan. When Mao Zedong brought a communist government to power in China in 1949 despite U.S. attempts to prevent this outcome, the United States established several bilateral alliances with countries in the region in order to prevent the further spread of communism. American involvement in the Korean War confirmed the United States’ readiness to use its military strength to resist communist expansionism.

The United States took the lead in creating a series of international institutions—including the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund—to promote cooperation on global issues ranging from security to monetary policy. The United States has championed this global system of multilateral institutions—known as the liberal world order—for the past seventy-five years.

At the close of World War II—the deadliest conflict in human history—British Prime Minister Winston Churchill declared that the United States stood “at the summit of the world.”

No Sincerity In Constitution Amendment’: Adebanjo Insists 1999 Constitution Must Be Replaced.

Leader of Yoruba socio-political group Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, has criticised the ongoing constitutional amendment exercise in the National Assembly.

“There is no sincerity in the amendment,” the elder statesman said during an appearance on Politics Today, a day after lawmakers voted on more than 60 proposed amendments including granting autonomy to local governments.

Chief Adebanjo, a strong advocate of the restructuring and critic of the 1999 Constitution, has no faith in amendments and in the lawmakers behind them.

As far as he is concerned, the current (1999) Constitution was foisted on the people by the military and only benefits those in power to the detriment of the populace.

“Who are those making the amendment? Those are the beneficiaries of fraud in the Constitution,” he said. “How are you amending a Constitution you didn’t take part in. Did we make it? What is our input? A Constitution that tells lies about itself.”

Until the Constitution is replaced he believes every attempt at addressing the challenges facing the nation, and conducting elections, would be an exercise in futility.

Another problem he has with the amendment exercise is the timing.

General elections are scheduled to hold in February 2023, which means the process may be completed just months if not weeks to the elections.

“When will it come into effect?” He asked, suggesting that there may be a plot to abandon the implementation.

Asked about what it would take to replace the Constitution, Chief Adebanjo placed the responsibility of ensuring it is changed on the people.

“The civil society, the women organisations, the students; everything they are doing is to force (President Muhammadu) Buhari to the conference table to change this Constitution. Until you do that, you are just deceiving yourself. No matter what gerrymandering you are doing, I don’t believe in it and I wish I am proven wrong,” he said.
Chief Adebanjo also has doubts about the President’s willingness to do what he says is the right thing regarding the Constitution and wants the people to force him and the relevant bodies into changing it.

The President has on occasions expressed reservations about issues such as the clamour for state police and Chief Adebanjo believes that shouldn’t be the case.

H said, “People think that freedom can just be handed to them. No, you have to fight for your freedom.

“Buhari can’t say they cannot change the Constitution or that he is going to change the Constitution in his own way. We are the people.

“Let us be fair to ourselves, we are changing the Constitution now and the man who is supposed to do it is now telling you, ‘No, I don’t believe in state police’. And that is the key thing to this Constitution. One of the conditions that make our governors lame-duck governors.”

Reiterating his criticism of the 1999 Constitution, the elder statesman said it cannot be salvaged through amendments.

“What I am saying is that we should rally the people round and compel Buhari to change the Constitution that is causing all the trouble,” he said.
All these patch amendments. The Insurance (company) says the car is a write off, you say, no, you can keep panel beating it. I don’t believe in it, I don’t deceive myself.”

Buhari's children

His only son, Yusuf Buhari, along with her sister, Zahra Buhari, was at the time enrolled in the University of Surrey for master's degree programmes in Economics and Medical Microbiology respectively.

Checks on tuition fees paid by international students running a master's degree programme at the institution as of 2020/2021 amounted to £15,800 to £20,500 equivalent to about N4. 5 million and N6 million based on the N288 to £1, which was the exchange rate around the time.

While Zahra's course of study is currently not available at the institution’s portal, which makes it difficult to project how much she might have paid as fees, the tuition fee for Economics (master’s) for the 2020/2021 academic year amounted to £18,600 (N5. 4 million) for international students.

According to an American professor, John Paden, “All of President Buhari’s children have had extensive education. Several have studied at university and postgraduate levels, abroad.”

Other; children of the president also attended universities outside the country

Fatima Buhari, who was born on March 7, 1975, got a postgraduate degree from Business Academy, Stratford, United Kingdom.

Following is Nana-Hadiza Buhari who was born on June 23, 1981. She studied at the Essence International School; then later moved to Cobham Hall, Kent, United Kingdom where students in Years 7, 8, and 9 pay school fees as high as £10,279 for boarders and £6,804 for day students.

Nana-Hadiza also studied at the University of Buckingham.

Safinatu Buhari, born on October 13, 1983, also had her education at Essence International School and Cobham Hall, Kent, United Kingdom. She furthered her studies at the University of Plymouth, United Kingdom, and at Arden University, United Kingdom.

Halima who was born on October 8, 1990, schooled in the British School of Lome, and Bellerby’s College, Brighton, United Kingdom. She also attended the University of Leicester, United Kingdom .

In our series of letters from African writers, Nigerian novelist Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani looks ahead to what her country's election build-up will bring.


As candidates begin to emerge for the presidency, as well as thousands of other positions, here is a handy guide to four things to look out for:

1)
Stomach infrastructure';

Bags of rice, bales of cloth and bundles of cash will be distributed to the electorate by grovelling candidates keen to curry favour.
Known in Nigerian political parlance as "stomach infrastructure", these gifts will offer a diversion from questions about policies and promises.

They will be used by sitting officials or parties to compensate for their failure to provide actual infrastructure like transport and power.

They will be seen by the electorate as advance compensation in case a candidate fails to fulfil their promises after being elected.

2)
Greatness thrust upon one;
Self-deprecation is not a common Nigerian trait, but for some reason many politicians here seem shy to express their enthusiasm to contest.

Nothing like: "I've wanted to be president of Nigeria since I was 12." Instead, political hopefuls must be seen to have greatness thrust upon them, their ambition pushed by their kinsfolk.

There they were sitting under the mango tree when members of their ancestral community approached them to say: "We want you to go for us. Nobody else but you, please."

Be prepared to see different groups of people paying visits to politicians and beseeching them to contest. Be prepared to hear many politicians say "no" at least thrice, before finally yielding a reluctant: "Yes, I will go. But only because you asked."

These visits will be widely covered by TV news programmes, and the conversations reported in newspapers.

3)

Internet warriors;

This will be a good year for those jobless young men and women who are paid to go online and influence conversations.

Their personal opinion on any topic is irrelevant. For a fee, they will like, love, re-tweet and re-post, and be prepared to distort any conversation in the direction that their politician client instructs.

The more accounts each of them can register in different names, the merrier.
While this may be a job for the jobless, it is certainly not one for the lazy. It requires dedication and commitment.

Day and night, they will be on standby to attack, troll, praise and extol. Never relinquishing their hold on public discourse, they will work hard to ensure that certain names and topics trend.

4)
Crystal-ball 'failures'

International media organisations will apportion generous word counts and screen time to their coverage of Nigeria.

Foreign commentators and pundits claiming to be experts on Nigerian affairs will emerge from every nook and cranny, making confident predictions about everything from the outcome of the elections to the post-President Muhammadu Buhari era.

But they will rely on common sense, ignorant of the fact that Nigeria is one of those places where few things make sense. As we say here: "The more you look, the less you see."

Some of the experts will base their predictions on Twitter trends, not realising that the loud voices on the social media platform are not always representative.

The majority of Nigeria's more than 200 million people living in the country cannot afford the data costs needed to tweet, and a good number of the comments from Nigerians on Twitter come from the diaspora.

The international crystal-ball gazers will be misled.

and back home some so called Educated people are worshipping Nnamdi kanu

Educated people; have done there research; before coming to the conclusion; that Nigeria is a concentration camp; for the Fulanis to conquer ;and expliot for there own ethnic gain.

"The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great-grandfather, Uthman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We use the minorities of the North as willing tools and the South as a conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us, and never allow them to have control over their future." ~ Ahmadu Bello

This is the plan for Nigeria ;Kanu is 100% right.
About the; world capital of poverty.
The third most terrorized; place on earth.
Your so call Presidiot ;have jettison out of the country for healthcare;He cannot build a modern; well equipped ;hospital in Nigeria for 7 years;your economy is in tartars. Should I sey more; You have to emancipate yourself from mental slavery; first;with reality; of the zoological republic;;except if your lying to yourself ;because they pay you peanuts; for your ethnic cleansing ;and gaslighting people; for saying the truth.

War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

In our series of letters from African writers, Nigerian novelist Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani looks at the growing frustration among the middle class that is pushing people to leave her country.

A few years ago, my childhood friend moved back to Nigeria after being in the US for more than 20 years studying and working.

But, despite joining a successful corporation in Lagos, earning a decent salary, and living in the upmarket Lekki district, she was soon ready to pack up and return to America.

"People behave as if there's an award for being able to live in Nigeria," she told me. "Well, I'm not interested in receiving that award."
She was right that many of us who are able to thrive in Nigeria regard it as some sort of superpower.

When we travel abroad, fellow Nigerians who have fled home view us in awe as we lug our excess-baggage suitcases to the airport.

Surviving in Nigeria
They marvel that we are actually cheerfully returning to a country infamous for systemic frustrations, general lawlessness, and the miscellaneous trials and tribulations that are all in a day's existence here.

"I can't imagine how you survive in that country," they often say. "You're really strong."

But, these days, many more Nigerians seem to be deciding that they also are not interested in receiving any "awards" for sticking it out.

Seven out of 10 Nigerians are willing to leave their country if given the opportunity, according to a report published in 2021 by the Africa Polling Institute.

Back in 2019, the same poll showed that only 32% of Nigerians wanted to leave.

Most countries require a medical examination for Nigerians applying for long-stay or immigration visas.

In January 2022, the average waiting time for a three-minute tuberculosis X-ray at the International Organization of Migration (IOM) centre in Lagos was 10 hours, while the waiting time at the testing centre in the capital, Abuja, was six hours.

"We haven't seen this kind of influx of people before as we've been seeing since last year," an IOM doctor told me unofficially, so she cannot be named. "If it continues like this, we may be forced to reassess and make additional arrangements."
Not even the alarming Covid-19 news and data from the West could deter Nigerians.

Visa-processing centres around the country remained flooded with applicants at the height of the pandemic, and continue to see queues that often stretch outside the buildings.

Unlike in times past, when most people desperate to abandon Nigeria were the suffering masses with no jobs and no hope, the majority of those taking off now appear to be from among the comfortable middle class.

To avoid alerting their current employers to their emigration plans or jeopardising the outcome of their visa applications, nobody I interviewed for this story was willing to be named.

"Those of us in the organised middle class are the ones who have the most right to complain about this country," a human resources executive told me. "We pay taxes regularly so we are the ones funding the corrupt people at the top."

Conditions in the country have steadily worsened in recent years, and people have different reasons why they are now keen to leave.

Some have simply lost faith in Nigeria. They cannot imagine the present government or any future one successfully navigating the country away from the quagmire of corruption and insecurity and regression.

Some are alarmed by the plummeting value of the naira currency.

One US dollar was equivalent to 198 naira when President Muhammadu Buhari came to power seven years ago. Today, you need 572 naira to buy a dollar on the black market.

"I could be there thinking that I'm earning a good salary," a bank manager told me. "But as long as it is in naira, whatever savings I accumulate, no matter how much, could mean nothing tomorrow."

Some feel that establishing roots in a Western country is psychologically calming, even if you decide to return to Nigeria in the future.

"Nigeria is easier to bear when you know that you can press the eject button and leave whenever you want," a lawyer told me. "The problem is when you feel that you are stuck here."

Some are simply in search of greener pastures, like the thousands of Nigerian doctors and nurses who are being lured abroad by the assurance of superior pay.

Some want their children to grow up in more stable societies.

Some dread falling severely ill in a country with such poor medical facilities.

Some are worried about the rising insecurity, kidnappings, assassinations, armed robberies and other violent attacks by unknown criminals who are rarely apprehended.

It doesn't matter that these dreams of a better life may not necessarily materialise in foreign countries that often offer up their own challenges. For many emigrants, no devil they don't know can ever be worse than the ones in Nigeria they know so well.

A popular means of escape is student visas for postgraduate degrees, which can open up the opportunity to work and stay in the foreign country at the conclusion of the course.

Back in the early 1980s when the Nigerian economy began to crumble, so severe was the surge of emigrants that the government of General Buhari, as he was known when he was the military ruler, invested in TV and radio adverts encouraging people to stay home and build their country.

In one immensely popular TV promotion, a man called Andrew was pushing his suitcase at the airport while reeling out his many frustrations with Nigeria.

"I'm checking out! I'm tired!" he declared.

Suddenly, a hand clamped on his shoulder from behind: "Andrew! Don't check out!"

The patriotic Nigerian who stopped him then went on to infuse Andrew with words of hope about Nigeria's future and he repented of his intention to desert.

This time around, a democratically elected President Buhari appears unbothered about the flood of emigrants from his country.

"Anybody who thought he has any other country than Nigeria: Goodbye," he said in a 2019 speech.

"You can go but we are here. We are determined to rehabilitate our country, especially for our children and grandchildren."
