These people are numb skulls. How do you flee a country with no king to protest the country in a country that has a king.
I feel you. It must be very difficult for you to understand that King Charles III is not anywhere near like wannabe king dump.

You just go check how many executive orders King Charles and his mother before him signed, and you might understand the difference.

In hindsight, we will all come to thank the tyrant predator for one thing, he made the republican party so toxic, right now it's barely hanging but that doesn't bother him lol. After all his corruption will be exposed in a special commission, the ones who enabled him will be fleeing or entering witness protection. His presidency will ultimately turn out to the most destructive thing America has ever suffered.
Na! He has not made the republican party so toxic enough. I want him to do 4 more years of his destruction so people will instantly drop dead on hearing repu alone!

That is a complete bastardization of the discussion. Please, come on!!!

The King may be small government in the sense that it's ONE PERSON and maybe his family, but the REAL question is...what are his powers? The King of Swaziland (Eswatini) is an absolute monarch while King Charles of England barely has any powers, he's completely subject to Parliament.
You'd note I gave historical kings and emperors, with powers modern King Charles doesn't have.

My point is, single (small) governments have been corrupt in the past, such that I don't think size of government correlates with corruption, since private companies can be corrupt too, especially if there's no big government to oversee them.

As for Nigeria, the wage bill alone will eventually crush the size of government, because there's only so many past government pensions you can tax people to pay before we revolt. Expected hyperbolic date is 2125-2225.

Nazgul:
Even though I don't believe this coup story one bit, I feel it's what we need to reset the ethnic, economic and social state of Nigeria.

APC under Tinubu has divided Nigeria to the point where people starving to death as a result of bad policies by APC would prefer to attack another tribe that has nothing to do with their predicament, than criticize the administration that put them in such conditions.

When I go online and see the kind of things some Nigerians post I do tell myself that we have no right to call whites racist cos we're worse than them. And if having a military administration would reset all that, I'm fully in support.
You see. Nigeria has never ever had a military administration, because, if Nigeria had ever had a military administration, one would just go read how things were under the military administrations Nigeria never had.

But my fault for not giving you reading matter.

Guy please. You need to choose one hustle and stick with it

Let's be real. The Jews were driven by everyone. The Arabs, the Ottomans, the Romans, the English, the Spanish, the Americans, the Russians, the Germans, you name it. It is and never was an Arab-only thing. Anyone saying so is just an Arabian racist.

If you want to use conquest as the hustle, then stick with it is. Conquest is either acceptable or it is not. You want to berate Arabs for settling in the land for 500 years after conquest, but never stop talking about 1967 when it comes to Israel. Which is it? Is it conquest or is it not?

The English took over Palestine in 1917 after the Ottomans had ruled over the region since 1516. The English, through anti-semite Mr Balfour, handed the land over to the Jews as a means of purging Jews out of England.

The Jews didn't conquer the land. They never did rule over the land at any point in time through conquest all the way back to 66BC when the Romans ruled and killed over 1.5m over the two wars.

The Muslims had arrived in the region since 600 AD.

Side Note: The Mussing were the only ones that ruled in the area, that allowed Jews to thrive.

Therefore it baffles me when I see all this anti-muslim nonsense flying around.


Take any period you want in history, and you still find Arabs selling in this area for at least 1000 years. How many years do a people need to settle in a land to be habitats?

And then across and Zionistsv want to feign surprise when the Palestinians reject the Balfour declarations and the UN resolution 3 decades later.

As at 1914, there were only 8% Jews on the land.

I could not be bothered responding to kentebemoney since its obvious how little he is willing to consider, so thank you for laying it out here so he can choose so we all see.

Let me add.

On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, “To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates, the land of the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”
https://biblia.com/bible/esv/genesis/15/1-21
So he can tell us what he expects the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites or those living there now to say or do when the God of Israel is alleged to have said the following:

Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and possess the land. I will set your borders from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the Euphrates; for I will hand over to you the inhabitants of the land, and you shall drive them out before you.

I am of the theory that Northern Nigeria was colonised by Islamists (as in Muslim people from elsewhere), and they are still colonised now.

P. S. I am neither anti Islam or anti Christian books, though an atheist. I appreciate them both because they are the software of Nigerians, as in, they dictate how we think and reason.

If given the choice, I will make our Holy Book the old and new testament and the Quran, and it will be illegal to publish them separately. I'll however cover my eyes and not prosecute those who do.

I will mandate that schools teach understanding, and not belief in either, just as I wouldn't allow belief to be taught in maths and physics.

And yes. I expect Nigerians to stone and crucify me for so doing, especially since I will announce it in a mosque, or better still, at the Osun Sacred Grove.

We Yorubas (and many other tribes), have many gods, and they live peacefully amongst us until some foreign gods claimed to be the only gods and killed off our gods. But we shouldn't let our peaceful coexistence die too.
FoodRe: What Type Of Blender Should I Buy? by budaatum: 2:14pm On Oct 18, 2025
Marydolapo:
My advice, never buy those blenders branded as kenwood, Bosch , silvercrest, with 3000w, 4500watts, in some cases 5000watts written on the package. They are fake, and they run on Aluminium coil winding.
My own research concurs with the above. Anything over 1600watts is proving elusive here in UK.

Amazon has no recognisable brands above 20000w, and the low price of the 4500w below is enough for suspicion, plus the fact it looks like my Homgeek. Some reviews report smoking and difficult returns.

Blenders are essential appliances that should be present in every Nigerian kitchen. They make cooking a lot easier and faster.

I got reminded by a like, appropriately, considering I'm researching blenders again.

I got a Homgeek 2000w Blender after my post above. (Image below). Can't remember how much I paid, but it was definitely less than £80.

They make a 1600w for UK but mine came from China, and I am very pleased with it as its the grindiest blender I've ever had.

Unfortunately, they have upgraded to a new version with a digital display, but limited to 1600w in UK.

I need a 2000w to add to it as I want to make ogi.

I'll sarcastically say it's about who markets their product better, but it's unfortunately a battle that hasn't even begun yet.

With our vast population and divide amongst the two religions, I can't see how Nigeria wouldn't be a proxy for some people's battles that are only just beginning, considering how far it has to go.

In fact, I commend the Nigerian leadership for relatively keeping us out of their wars so far, but after the last election I expect 'leaders' to start their own religious wars.
