Sleepy Joe is a toothless bulldog that barks for nothing.

Putin is daring USA because he knows USA under sleepy Joe is nothing but just as an average countries.

Putin wouldn't dare try this if Trump was still the president. Madness for jam madness na, I trust my daddy Trump. Infact Dem never born Putin to do all these.
You think this is a Chelsea vs Man U football match.

So simple to say things in this manner. Please study extensively for better information.

Ukraine is an EU member state. EU loses its significance if it allows Russia take absolute control of a member state without rebuttal. Even if NATO fails to send support to Ukraine, EU should stand with Ukraine with all her might. Sleepy Joe is a coward. Trump would never
Trump would have do what? Stop Putin pretending to be Putin's friend or as an act of cowardice?

You think any of the super powers will risk a nuclear war? Do you think Russia will dare invade any NATO member and expect to receive a golden handshake?

All EU members stand behind Ukraine and as of this moment the best they can do is sanctions. Putin expects that a rise in the price in oil will make his country economically better, but he is a joker. He expects China to offer economic support in the future, but he will find out that the Chinese are very shrewd with their finance.

Nigerians living in Ukraine cried out through social media after Russia attacked Ukrainian cities early on Thursday morning.
They claimed the Nigerian embassy in Ukraine had earlier given them assurances to be calm that nothing was going to happen.

On the contrary, they started hearing explosions and gunshots today and they no longer feel safe.

They were able to make it to the train station but they are now stranded as many people are attempting to leave the city at once.
Unfortunately they are on their own, knowing our country and the complete incompetence of embassy officials.

A war in Europe will most likely spill into pariah states like Nigeria already at the brink of a full scale civil war
Certainly not.

What should trouble the minds of the southerners is northern hegemonic tendencies.

Looking at the split up of the old USSR, we find a militarily weakened Ukraine having to face constant threat from a new Adolf Hitler in the name of Putin. With nuclear in his hands and possibly the second strongest military after the USA, we find Putin asserting his powers against his weaker neighbour.

Presently we find ourselves gradually falling into that same danger in the south, with the north dominating everywhere. Our country has been troubled the our politicians who have created so much tribal and religious divisions in the country. How they will manage to keep this country as one makes people like me wonder.

That's all they can do. They only have power when they meet unarmed old men and women.

And one wonders why their nemesis keeps getting support from the masses. answer me this question, if you are from this place that the terrorist Nigerian terrorists set ablaze, won't you celebrate when evil befalls them?

This question explains to you why they will keep on losing in Igboland. They are the ones that do the PR for IPOB not radio Biafra. IPOB brings out a theory and Nigerian terrorist Police show it to us in practical. They show the wickedness in real life.
The fall of the USSR and the present problem faced by Ukraine is one clear example Nigerians should look at.

I certainly hope it will not get to the stage of war again in this country. It is grossly irresponsible for the army to hide under the cover of searching for IPOB and razing down buildings and businesses of innocent citizens in Igboland.

Don’t we all miss Trump?

First, if Trump was still POTUS, Putin wouldn’t be taking this action because Trump would have talked him out of it as friends they are.

The American people didn’t like Trump getting close to Putin but Trump was simply using the Sun Tzu principle that says “keep your friends close and your enemies closer”.

However, if Putin dared to attack, Trump wouldn’t be reading sermons by now.

“Waiting till Thursday to address the American people”.

Imagine that nonsense. Russia for don dey collect as e dey hot.

I’m still waiting for Israel sha.

One mind tells me invasion of Ukraine is Putin’s peripheral excuse. Man got more reasons for starting this war. And an eye should be kept on China and Iran.
No, we do not miss Trump.

Ukraine was not weakened militarily by Putin or Biden. Ukraine elected to become an independent state in December 1991 and some conditions followed thereafter. Ukraine was before independence the third strongest nuclear possessor in the world. Before the collapse of the USSR, their nuclear weapons were located in Belarus and Kazaksthan. Possession of nuclear weapons is a deterrent against aggression. That means the Russians cannot choose to go to war directly against the USA and vice versa, including other nuclear armed countries. Russia cannot even dare attack Israel or even Pakistan directly.

Denuclearization of Ukraine following the Budapest memorandum exposed Ukraine to possible attack by the Russians and not Biden. That is what we see today. The Ukrainians agreed to denuclearize their country in return for assistance by the US and NATO. Putin repeatedly says that he does not want Ukraine to belong to NATO. His fear is seeing the Americans at his backyard in Ukraine.

The world has suddenly woken up to the realization of a new Adolf Hitler in the person of Putin. The Truth is that Putin has gotten away with some of his arrogant moves before now, but he may not get away with this.

He threatened unprecedented consequences on the west but he lives in a fool's paradise. He thinks that be is immune to sanctions as he has been saving up, but he will face the repercussions. This very foolish move has driven up the prices of oil and will make Russia richer, but the losses will far outweigh its gains.

Trump unfortunately would not have stopped Putin. All along Putin dreamt of this move and planned it. It was only a matter of time.

The fallout of this action us a new world order just like the cold war days. Russia has aligned with the Chinese and Iran, but the USA had its own allies and will make more.

Lastly, in terms of diplomacy, do you not know that Putin could not have proceeded without alerting Biden and other nuclear powers using the diplomatic backdoor?

PoliticsRe: Fabian Ihekweme: Imo State Commissioner Dumps APC, Joins PDP by Cantonese: 7:27pm On Feb 23, 2022
IamNat:
I asked two questions;
1. How many presidential candidate have you seen declare their ambition from the Southwest?
2. How many as declared from the Southeast?

And I mean both APC and PDP combined!!! That would now make anyone think that the Southwest vote would be divided while that of the Southeast would be delivered in buck.
Yet you only attended to one of the question.

If PDP zones it to the SW (which is very unlikely as it would be very unfair to the people from Southeast) then we would know it's a Yoruba vs Yoruba thing. Either way, it would be a win win.

But then, let's just wait and see but some people aren't ready to wait and see how things play out, instead of making their candidates more popular, they are hating on another which I think is unfair.
Oh that's clearer.

Politicians have made tribalism the order of the day, with so much hatred infused into the hearts of their respective supporters. That's the principal reason the clamour for separation gets more serious daily. If nothing meaningful is done to erase hatred, surely the country will go down faster than we ever thought.

However I think both parties will select candidates from the same zone. We have long gone past tbe era when Buhari (Fulani man) ran on the account of APP and was defeated by Obasanjo (a Yoruba man) who ran on the account of PDP. The same happened between GEJ and PMB.

They will look at their strengths and get sellable candidates within the same zone, I believe.

And who told you that southwest votes is divided? How many presidential candidate have you seen declare their ambition from the Southwest? How many as declared from the Southeast?

I laugh. grin
How many presidential candidates in the SW? I think you must be looking at the APC only. Even at that, if the lot falls on the SW, for you think other Yoruba candidates will just shut their mouths without giving it a shot.

If PDP zones it to the SW, do you think the Yorubas do not have good candidates there too?

Let's all wait and see how our politicians set all things up.

The young lady should confine herself to her group of friends or immediate community. Will she maintain the same statement if she's told that women in her family are lesbians? Maybe she's a lesbian too. How did she arrive at her result?

Does she want to say that the Lady who struggles hard to sell her rice/beans, palm oil, etc may mostly be lesbians?

PoliticsRe: APC 2023: CPC & ACN Blocs have Been settled, Time For ANPP, APGA , NPDP Bloc by Cantonese: 9:22am On Feb 23, 2022
Penguin2:
As much as your argument is still logical and would pass as valid, it falls short of social and distributive justice and equity, that should exist within a union.

So the CPC got the presidency in 2015.
The ACN got the Vice Presidency.
While nPDP got the Senate (through struggle).

Now, in 2023, your proposing a scenario that ACN, again, elevates to the presidency while the nPDP settles for Vice presidency.

Where does that leave the ANPP bloc?
Where does that leave the APGA bloc?

In fairness, should the bloc that got nothing at all in 2015 not get the largest share of the available offices while the bloc that got second to nothing follows in that order before those who got the largest share in 2015 are considered?

Should it rather than be the survival of the fittest where the strongest should always win and those who are not as strong can continue to grumble?

If you support that notion, then it would also be valid to argue that the CPC bloc, since they are in power, can scheme to retain power even in the north and not bother about zoning it to the south at all.

Or you think there’s anything ACN bloc or any other bloc at all can do other than pull out of the union?
This calculation is the major reason APC is on the path of destruction.

Power blocs fusing together in political parties is very normal. If the major objective is to get power without proper direction, there certainly will be disintegration.

Before the 2019 elections, we saw members of the nPDP like Galadima disagreeing absolutely with PMB and APC. Many of such like him broke away and sought to dismantle APC from the center.

It is not a secret that the glue that holds APC is the president. That's why political office holders play to the gallery by quoting his name at all times. With his health challenge and his desire to return to his farm, do you think that he can embark on campaigns for whoever will contest for the presidency? As the symbol of the party, if anything goes wrong with him, how can APC remain as one?

If there is no equity and there will never be, how do we expect the unfavoured power blocs to remain in the party?

This is too wrong. What an undeveloped country....!!!
"One of the security details assigned...". And all over the country there are security challenges. One politician is guarded by as many as 10 police officers and we think the security of the masses is safeguarded by the few left. Aside from police personnel they also have private security men added to their homes. They are the ones who embezzle and make the masses poorer.

Now the police oga themselves will sweep this under feet and Gbenga Daniel may just give the family of the deceased some pitiable amount claiming that he died on active duty.

Even the baba is desperately expecting the end of his tenure so that he can go back to his farm.

Politics makes it hard for youths to get positions because Nigerians politicians loot and use the same money to make our youths appear as beggars.
