I beg to differ! The base that was targeted 25 miles from the Polish border has long been a traning camp for Ukrainians by NATO. So there was, already a gradual encroachment into Russias face. If the fear was avoiding westernization, although, what is really not already westernized about Ukraine (Being is whatbis considered eastern Europe does not make them any less westernized), then Russia could have banned its citizens from accessing western tv, news etc. Just like North Korea. So in my opinion, that is not why. Let me know if ypu have other questions or comments.

Luchitec:
The invasion was never really about Ukraine joining NATO per se. Although the majority of the Ukrainian citizens favor their country becoming a NATO member, the odds are steeply stacked against this ever becoming a reality. With the strategic move Russia already made by destabilizing the Crimea and the adjoining region, Ukraine would never be able to meet one of the minimum membership criteria required by NATO; that is, "They must be good neighbors and respect sovereignty outside their border." In fact, none of the big countries (France, Germany and etc.) in NATO are actually in favor of Ukraine becoming a NATO member. Who wants a new NATO member with perennial border disputes?

Vladimir Putin invasion of Ukraine is simply out of paranoia, the fear that over time, the increased westernization of Ukraine will create a spillover effect in Russia. Heck, Putin, maybe right. However, massacring thousands of Ukrainians to preempt the inevitable from ever happening in Russia is sheer pigheadedness and delusion of grandeur.

Stick to talking about Davido or Wizkid. You know nothing and are too shallow to learn. What does Iran have to do with Bin Laden. Some of you people are so dumb, it hurts

AntiTerrorists:
...iran attacked USA... Osama bin laden.. killing more than 100 people... America retaliated


Abeg before the start of this INVASION, who did ukraine kill in russia or how did they attack russia ?

Actually, the guy you are exchanging words withbis right. You have a sovereign country, why should you go on about him being punished in another country? Initial comments were spot on, but you behaved like a rabid dog as if you were right. Your comments show that you know nothing. Perhaps stick to sapele water and let people with knowledge speak...

You are a time waster and you think like a little child get out of my mention.

Nigerians are a daft lot. So a governor places someone on scholarship on what basis? If it is from his personal money that is fine. If it from the state funds, then a governor has no right to place anyone on scholarship for drawing him. State funds do not belong to governors to disburse on self glorification.

But again, it's a zoo country where we applaud crap.

Fool. They have any hairstyle they like. How do people like you co exist with humans? You should be placed in a zoo so that we can see what homo sapiens look like. Dummy.

Those that grant you interview at the embassy are they with dread

I would rather employ an intelligent person with dreadlocks than someone that cannot even write properly. Perhaps go back to school and learn how to write in correct grammar before chastising dreadlocks.

He is a stup.id sanctimonious fake pastor who got caught banging a w_h_o_r_e. and has refused to confess and show penitence the way Jesus taught us.
You are a just a zombie sheeple defending your master.[/quote]

I think you are the one that chose to believe what suits you....

bezimo:


You see how desperately depraved and unclean your mind is.

You dont acknowledge that the bastard Otobo was paid to fabricate lies against Apostle Suleman...but you fully believe she was paid by Apostle suleman for her to confess that her initial claims were lies.

You choose to believe what will suit what you want to think!! What a shame! Just so pathethic to observe!!

Oh shut up, you dumb idiot. What is it with you guys and your gullibility. Geez!!!!

The war against the church is on . . .

Who is Apostle Suleiman?

A flesh as such he is subject to temptation.

A Muslim who saw the light and converted to Christianity.

A man who has worn so many souls to Christ.

A man who has been bold enough to speak against the evil propaganda of politicians and Muslims

Enough reasons why they sponsor journalist, bloggers etc to speak against him and try to tarnish his image.

Be wise!

Well said. It is very disheartening to read the comments of these idiots. I had a look at an empowerment programme by a senator where he distributed palm oil, and you had these say idiots oohing and aahing like that was the best thing since sliced bread.

Nigerians would never get it. We are our own worst enemy. The idiots spend all day mudslinging about tribes, yet your rulers come together irrespective of tribe to loot and bleed you dry.

You deserve worse . Now I get how easy it was for us to be sold into slavery. SMH.

God bless you and I never knew your type still exist in this godforsaken country.
I despise this country and her youths passionately cos their reasoning is nothing compared to a normal human being's reasoning and you wonder if they deserve a better life?
The rate at which they support these beasts is alarming that you'll think they are promised a juicy position (Even me way dey earn salary from a political party and will get a juicy position dey pity dem)
I hate youths in this country passionately!
We'll never attain any height wit these set of youths and I think they will never deserve more.

I just looked at your profile. I suggest the following:
1. Stick to watching BB. It is obvious you are not yet evolved enough for anything other than the mundane.
2. Learn to speak English better.
People like you are the reason why this country can never get ahead.
Have a great day.


[Iquote author=tribalistseun post=55023437] you just sounded like an illiterate. You're more concern about Dino, how about Buhari who don't have waec certificate. But he's a president of a country like Nigeria, with highly educated technocrats. Solve that buhari own before you talk about Dino meleye, cos Buhari set the paste for others to follow.[/quote]

As a nation, we are truly messed up. A third of the posters on this topic cannot fathom what sarcasm is? We blame our government for not seeing us as the leaders of tomorrow, but seriously, I would not want my 'tomorrow' in the hands of these youths either.
Guys, going to university is not the end of it. Educate yourselves, pick up constructive hobbies and develop your minds further.
If you cannot get what simple sarcasm is, you have no right, EVER, to comment on a political or economic post. Your puny minds will not get it.
I am ashamed of this generation.

Edit*** Not a third, I meant three quarters

Your as you see when tbe Afgan First Lady came she had a small crowd.
This is how they meet with First Ladies in DC not that APC propaganda they posted in blogs

Imagine a whole First Lady was walking in a crowd of strangers lol at the Airport. They host her in one of they numerous offices thats the truth but in US? Fat lie!

Oh wow..You are a genius. So now USIP is lying about her visit on their verified pages...

Interesting.!

If you find it difficult to comprehend what a seminar means, I would not waste my time trying to educate you on deeper intricacies.. lol

abes:


Then you need to quote and address her (whoever she is) directly.. I only posted a picture from a verified official twitter account of USIP on this thread to show the original OP that indeed Aisha was in the US. Okay?

I must have had a mix up. Forgive the brevity, as I am using my phone. .

joseph1832:
Guy are you just mentally not sound or what? i've given you more than enough reason to know why Michelle Obama didn't welcome Aisha Buhari and you're still going on and go swimming in unbridled sentiment.

Come on men, think!. If Aisha didn't duly inform the White House of her visit, do you think the White House will breach protocol just to please Aisha Buhari?

Incase you don't know, official visits are planned months ahead, and preparations need to be mad ahead of time. The U.S is not a place where you usually use Fire Brigade approach for everything.

Joe, are you at the point where you want to claw your hair out of frustration?

They will never get it. Even his comments show what kind of person you are trying to reach out to...

trinity227:
whether office recognized or not.. first lady is first lady.. and she visited Washington DC.. not newyork... DC is where Michelle lives..If truly she was there Aisha must have surely go to Michelle and videotape every event just to shame Fayose .. abi want to tell me that Michelle will drive her away if she request to meet with her ?

OMG! And you see yourself as a leader of tomorrow?

My friend, now might be the time for you to enroll for additional studies..

abes:


I don't get you....
What are you trying to say?

I was simply trying to educate her on what a seminar is. And that you do not need a 5000 capacity room depending on what your objectives are. QED

joseph1832:
It is sentiment bro. That's all there is to it. Most Nigerians are extremely blinded by sentiment, and they don't even know talkless of understand beaurocracy.

It is ridiculous bro. Can you imagine someone going on about a boardroom for a seminar?

Probably thinks of a 5000 seater hall with flowers and stuff. Lol

if you have 20 key people you need to talk to, would you need a larger room? Gee whiz

You take the effort to verify that she was hosted by them. Yet, your focus is on the venue.

You, my dear, have a long way to go..

joseph1832:
Remember, the Office of the First Lady of Nigeria isn't enshrined in the constitution. Also remember that Aisha may he chosen to visit on her own volition.

So how can a person whose office isn't recognised by the constitution visit another country in an official capacity?

I wonder how and why they don't get it....

Oh yah, they are used to bringing out the drums when a commissioner'wife pays them a visit and so they believe that is what is obtainable everywhere. SMH

joseph1832:
You speak as if Michelle Obama and Aisha are friends. Please remove sentiment from your eyes and think straight. I already told you about protocol and itinerary, do you think Michelle Obama will risk breaching protocol just to see Aisha Buhari, whose visit to the U.S isn't even official in the first place?

Does it not suck when you are trying to have a meaningful and sensible conversation and they just don't get it?
The ignorance is unbelievable bro. I doubt they ever will..
