If you ask me, Putin isn't totally serious with them because if he means it, 7days is okay..

Obviously, but looking at it with all the information available now - it would be foolish and suicidal since that’s what NATO wanted him to do.

Remember the now infamous quote from American Gen. Mark Milley that Russia will take Ukraine in a matter of days that has now been falsely credited to Russia? That was the plan by NATO, so Russia would get bogged down whilst losing most of its military assets and depleting its main forces.

But Putin just decided that Bleep that - it’s better to lure Ukraine out and destroy all their forces in a meat grinder with Wagner while Russian forces are kept intact. Then fight the economic and geopolitical war concurrently whilst forming a new alliance led by China.

And in hindsight - that strategy is paying off. They have pulled out a few borderline miracles in MENA with the alliances. Syria is back in Arab league. Saudi Arabia and Iran now have bilateral relations. Etc.

Taking Ukraine in 7days wouldn’t have made this possible. Ukraine would most likely end up as the last piece of the puzzle.

They’re not stubborn - they are now slaves who have sold their birthright and sovereignty. So, there’s basically nothing they can do apart from do as they are told. A mere pawn on the chessboard.

NATO countries have invested over $200billion in the war. And he who pays the piper calls the tune. They have no choice.

Anyway, these missiles are just mere PR stunt. Longer range but not more effective than some of the ones they already gave Ukraine. The aim to escalate and see if Putin will bite.

Nigeria has the most diverse number of ethnic groups in Africa. Most African countries have an average of about 10 ethnic groups in their countries but Nigeria has over 250.

Bro, Nigeria doesn’t have 250 ethnic groups.

Even the colonial map that divided Nigeria based on linguistics and kingdoms/empires didn’t have more than 12-15 provinces (I will check if I can still find the map). Those are the real ethnic groups in Nigeria - everything else is a hustle due to greed.

The most supposedly ‘diverse’ regions in Nigeria are the Christian belt that occupy Middle Belt and parts of the southern part of NW/NE and Delta state (I don’t want to say SS because Akwa Ibom and Cross River are the same people and Rivers is Ijaw/Edo/Igbo).

The so-called Christian Belt is made-up of Igala, Tiv and groups that were part of the old Kwararafa/Wukari empire/kingdom. And Delta is Ijaw + groups that are Edo/Yoruba/Igbo. These are the groups that populate the phantom 250 ethnic groups albeit they counted the subgroups of the major ethnic groups as well.

Zim Ndebeles broke away from Zulus and the Lozis in Zambia broke away from the Basotho. They are however diluted now both linguistically and genetically, but they are definitely family.

I used to mess with some chicks from Zambia, Zimbabwe and Zulu from South Africa. That’s how I found out that the languages are mutually intelligible albeit with slight differences. Even with the body type (forehead, hips, thighs and bum) and cadence when they speak English - you can tell that they’re the same people.

They used to tell me that they can understand the language when certain groups from the 3 countries are speaking. The Zambian one even expanded it to some groups in Congo DR which was shocking to me because I used to think Congo is mostly about Lingala.

Africa has too many unnecessary phantom groups that want to be independent despite the fact that they’re part of a larger group. And that’s one of the biggest problems on the continent. Europeans don’t fragmentise themselves that way and an Irish Celt is the same as the Scottish Celt and an Austrian knows he’s the same as a German.

This isn’t even shocking. When they have insulted Awolowo, Prof. Wole Soyinka, everyone in Fela Kuti’s family, and Yoruba pastors (in a country of Bible thumpers and gullible religious nuts where people call pastors daddy) - who didn’t see this coming? It’s only a matter of time before they start beating up Yoruba leaders and kings due to how docile Yoruba people are.

And what’s laughable is that: most of the people doing it amongst the Igbo mob live in Yorubaland. I doubt they would try this somewhere in Kano or Sokoto since they know the repercussions of their actions.

This is reminiscent of the Alaafin of Oyo that sped up the destruction of Oyo empire indirectly (I think it was Alaafin Abiodun). The gullible Alaafin decided to leave the conservativism and militarism that made Oyo great - for neo-liberalism and wealth. And that was the end of Oyo empire.

People like talking about how Yorubas are liberals, when liberalism has never built an empire. But conversely, all empires have been destroyed by liberalism. Keep being docile idiots until these barbarians with no history destroy everything your forebears built and everything Awolowo dedicated his life to protect. They will take your lands. Sack all your kings. Destroy your culture. And you’ll end up destitute.

To tell the truth there are technically only 5 different "tribes" in South Africa and not ten because half of the so called tribes are just clans who seperated from each other and gave themselves new clan names

Tswana-Pedi-Sotho are basically the same people mutually intelligble

Swati-Zulu-Xhosa -Ndebele- and to certain extent Tshonga are also basically the same people.

You’re right.

I always classify Ndebele in Zimbabwe to be of the same stock as Zulu and Xhosa (and even some Zambians tbh).

It’s the same problem with the idiocy about Nigerians. They think they have 300 ethnic groups when in reality, the country doesn’t have more than 15-20 ethnic groups. All these groups are just different dialects or groups from a particular ethnic group that migrated to another area and ended up adopting a lot of words from a more dominant ethnic group in their new abode.

People just create all these phantom ethnic groups due to greed and lust for power by their elites.

This will be a good read for you because it gives a peripheral view of what ancient West Africa was like according to Romans:

Between the first and fourth years of our era, there were several Roman expeditions in the West African region. According to Jonathan Roth, the main motivation for organizing these expeditions was to find sources of gold and organize transport to provinces located on the north coast of Africa. According to Pliny, the first organized expedition was commanded by Cornelius Balbus, who in 19 BCE probably reached the Niger River near Timbuktu. His claims have been backed up today by Roman artefacts discovered in the vicinity of Mali. Another expedition in the area was led by Consul Suetonius Paulinus, the first Roman commander to lead an army through the Atlas Mountains. His legionaries probably reached the Senegal River, as evidenced by Roman objects found until today in Mauritania.

In the central Sahara desert, two expeditions to Lake Chad were undertaken, according to Claudius Ptolemy, then known as Lake Hippopotamus. They were commanded by Septimius Flaccus and Julius Maternus. The first took place in CE 50 as retaliation against the Nomads attacking Leptis Magna, and three months later it reached a land called Agisimba in the Lake Chad area. The second one took place 40 years later and was a purely commercial expedition. After 4 months of travel, Julius Maternus arrived in the same area from where he was able to bring back a two-horned rhino, which was then featured in Colosseum.

Some historians argue that the Romans may have reached the equatorial regions. According to Pliny, in CE 70, Valerius Festus, the legate of the Legion of III Augustus, led another expedition to the area of the Niger River. Different interpretations indicate the possibility of some legionaries travelling beyond the Timbuktu area, up to the mouth of the Niger in today’s Nigeria. On the other hand, some historians say that Festus never left the area of modern southern Libya.

This is the more popular expedition albeit they didn’t get to West Africa. The stopped around present day South Sudan (I think). It’s a long article and you can read it here: https://www.thecollector.com/ancient-rome-and-the-search-for-the-source-of-the-nile/

However, this excerpt stood out:

Instead, the soldiers decided to continue down the White Nile, which took them to South Sudan. At this point, they became the first Europeans to penetrate this far south into Africa. For the Romans, this was a land of wonder, inhabited by fantastical creatures—tiny pygmies, animals without ears or with four eyes, people ruled by canine overlords, and burnt-faced men. Even the landscape looked otherworldly. The mountains glowed red as if they were set on fire.

^This was after they passed the splendour and greatness of other black civilisations. These were the creatures they came in contact with.

The indigenous group would be the NOK culture. Am I correct on this?

No, NOK people were a migrating people who stayed where they found NOK terracotta for a while before migrating to somewhere else. Hence there was neither any continuity with their civilisation amongst the groups that later occupied where they stayed nor any trace of them. Some historians claim NOK people were the people that migrated to Ile Ife and later became Yorubas due to similarities in civilisation, especially the terracotta from both civilisations (I believe only NOK, Ife and another Yoruba civilisation in present day Kwara had terracotta). While present day Nigerians from the Middle Belt also claim they’re descendants of NOK people despite the fact that nothing links them to the civilisation, apart from occupying the area today. So, I don’t know who’s right between the two schools of thought.

I think the problem with knowing the history of the people in West Africa has 3 big obstacles. On one hand, you have the Afrocentric black people from America who’re obsessed with Egyptian civilisation and want to make everything about Egypt. On the other hand, you have a lot of West African scholars who are also dealing with their own insecurities and are hell bent on claiming that life started in West Africa for West Africans when there’s no concrete proof that the current groups in west Africa have been there for more than 5000years. Then you have racist Europeans who don’t want to change the racist narrative of the medieval times that sub Saharan Africans were savages until the white man came to save them.

However, once you start doing your research with an open mind and start looking at the whole continent as a continent once occupied by only one race of people as described as Greek and Roman historians - not North vs Sub-Saharan Africa - you’ll get a clearer picture.

I read a research paper based on Heretodus writings about the Greek and Roman exploration of the origin of the Nile River. That sojourn took them to West Africa and according to Heretodus - only gnomes (midget tribes) and wild animals occupied the region. And Heretodus also wrote about an empire the Egyptians told him about and paid tributaries to, in present day Mauritania which he said was the Kingdom of Atlantis that was later washed away by massive flooding.

Once you start from there, you’d see that the next empire that replaced that in West Africa was the Ghana empire. And shortly after that was the Ile Ife empire that used glass beads as currency before its decline into kingdom status. Then later came the all the Islamic kingdoms in West Africa and the name ‘Moor’ which was derived from the Mauritania. The creation of Sufi Islam which is indigenous to West Africa, i.e the combination of African traditional beliefs and Islam. And subsequently, Mali, Songhay, Oyo, Benin, etc empires.

There are still some Proto-Bantu groups in Nigeria. Tiv, Ekoi, Efik and Ibibio have varying levels of Bantu. And the Igbos have still have a small level of Bantu admixture.

West Africans have different migration patterns. Ancient West Africa was called ‘Sudan’. And there were some that expanded from the Mauretania and North West Africa area, after the empire built there collapsed due to flooding. They later built the Ghana empire and kept expanding. And rest migrated in different migration waves - from the present day Sudan/Ethiopia axis.

I believe there was also an indigenous gnome group in West Africa prior to the arrival of these new groups. But archaeologists are still trying to determine what happened to them.

Politics › Soyinka: I didn't Meet Peter Obi For Reconciliation, Rather He Apologised by Creeper(op): 11:35pm On May 08, 2023

I Never Met Peter Obi For Reconciliation, Rather He Apologised Several Times For The Misconduct Of His Followers —Soyinka

Nobel laureate, Prof Wole Soyinka, on Monday, noted that the visit of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, to his residence in Abeokuta, Ogun State, was not for “reconciliation” but an apology visit for the misconduct of his (Peter Obi’s) followers.

Soyinka in a statement obtained by SaharaReporters titled, “A visitation and the Allure of 'Reconciliation'” said Obi’s meeting with him was where “discussions were frank and creative.”

Earlier, the LP candidate had also confirmed meeting with the Nobel Laureate. He was silent on the issues discussed, but rather said the visit was "intended to erase the needless misconceptions about the relationship between the great icon and the OBIdient family."

Soyinka, in his release on Monday, clarified the visit, noting that it was to offer an apology.

He said, “Before it gains traction and embarks on a life of its own, I wish to state clearly that the word “Reconciliation”, inserted into some reports of Peter Obi’s visit to me yesterday, Sunday, May 7. is a most inappropriate, and diversionary invocation. Let me clarify: I know the entity known as Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party. I can relate to him. I know and can relate to the Labour Party on whose platform he contested elections.

”There are simply no issues to reconcile between those two entities and myself. However, I do not know, and I am unable to relate to something known as the “Obidient” or “Obidient Family”. Thus, albeit in a different vein, any notion of Reconciliation, or even relations – positive, negative or indifferent - with such a spectral emanation is simply grasping at empty air.

“During that meeting, attended by two other individuals only, the word “Reconciliation” was never bruited, neither in itself nor in any other form. It simply did not arise. By contrast, there were expressions of “burden of leadership” “responsibility”, “apology”, “pleading”, “formal dissociation from the untenable”,,,.all the way to the “tragic ascendancy of ethnic cleavage”, especially under such ironic, untenable circumstances. Discussions were frank, and creative. The notion of Reconciliation was clearly N/A – None Applicable. It was never raised.

“The following should be understood, but never underestimated. What remains ineradicable from that weekend of orgiastic rave in the social media was the opening up of the dark, putrid recesses in the national psyche that we like to pretend do not exist. It invited – into minds seeking a grasp on reality - gruesome variations on images from Dante’s Purgatorio. A fathomless pit was exposed, at the bottom of which one glimpsed a throng of the damned, writhing in competitive lust for the largest of the gangrenous ladles in a diabolical broth. To peek over the edge of that pit for a prolonged spell was to turn giddy, with a risk of falling into the tureen of inhuman pus. To attempt to navigate one’s way, however gingerly, along a mat spread across the infernal abyss, is an invitation to moral suicide.

“For the serious minded, I call attention to essays I have offered on the theme of Reconciliation based on Truth, and the ethical imperative of Restitution. There will be further elaborations forthcoming in DEMOCRACY PRIMER III – Bookcraft’s INTERVENTION series, now brought forward for publication on June 12, the watershed extorted from the current regime as the nation’s Democracy Day,

“If, from here on, I now comply with entreaties from several valued, genuinely concerned directions, and ignore new provocations, however vile, it is only because I also approve of Mohammed Ali’s strategy of Rope-a-Dope, where blind menace is left flailing hopelessly at the disdainful manifest of Truth.”

Lol, I think a lot of you have been hoodwinked by America’s use of Shock and Awe tactics against small defenceless countries that you think any war that isn’t fought the same way shows the country isn’t as powerful as described. That tactic isn’t effective in modern warfare against a peer or near pear country.

Even Shock and Awe tactic wasn’t invented by Americans - Americans stole it from the Nazis. And Nazi Germany inherited it from Prussia Empire, as descendants of Prussia.

No, Russia’s only saving grace isn’t just nuclear weapons. They haven’t used 90% of their capabilities in Ukraine since Putin is yet to officially declare war. There are so many way they can retaliate and wreck things without nuclear weapons. And I already cited one with undersea cable. Even inside Ukraine - there are still tons of things they can hit that will make NATO shake. And if things go nuclear - there would be no winners. So, it’s not just Russia that would be history.

War isn’t just military - there are other aspects of it like economics, propaganda, politics, geopolitics, et al. And currently, Russia is winning everything - apart from the propaganda war. So, I understand why Putin has been very conservative thus far albeit a part of me want to see more force.

I had an insightful convo about the war and Putin’s strategy with a couple of British and US army veteran officers last year on another platform. And they provided some insightful perspective that’s deeper than what the average person can grasp. Perhaps one day when I have time on a thread about the war, I’ll shed more light on a lot of things.

The stories of Peter Obi being a drug lord is as foolish as it sounds. If there was any faintiest iota of truth about it, I trust APC to even overblow it till it bursts.

But here, everyone accepts that Tinubu benefited from drug trafficking. Even if that was years ago, it meant he should never be president at least for posterity. That's even ignoring his other antecedents like thuggery, state theft, election rigging, false identity, certificate issues, etc.

No man with a good conscience will support Tinubu to be president when there are far better options.

You have to be ignorant to say the allegations against Obi are foolish when his right hand man and blood brother were convicted for drugs trafficking. Obi just happened to be the lucky one who didn’t get caught. And the same is applicable to Tinubu.

Tinubu isn’t a saint but he’s more qualified than Obi and when he talks - you can hear a man who knows what he’s talking about.

Conversely, Obi is hard to listen to and he’s clueless about what he’s talking about 99% of the time. Obi is just there to make up the number as an Igbo man. That’s good and dandy if he’s contesting to rule Biafra. But in a country as diverse as Nigeria with different interests - Obi isn’t qualified. He’s better off as a trader.

Very plausible since false flag is out of the equation.

Ukraine won’t do something as suicidal and daring as that without American approval. And Americans are notorious for pushing the limit - especially now that they’re very desperate.

Putin most likely won’t retaliate straight away. Especially since he has been very conservative (even to a fault) throughout the war. Also, you can’t let emotions override logic since that’s most likely what they’re expecting. But it would be interesting to see where all the chips fall in the coming weeks.

Scary times tho.

Spy360:
At least you have accepted and come to terms with the fact that Nigeria's president elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a drug lord.

That's a start.

My question now is, why would you want a drug lord to be president of Nigeria?

I never disagreed on anything.

But you can’t hold anything against a man who was never convicted.

Obi was also involved in drugs trafficking but I will never call him a drug lord because he was never convicted.

If you do the crime and don’t get caught - you’re as clean as a whistle.

The game is the game.

Nigerians na ignoramus

You’re right - most Nigerians have very low IQ. And once you have been to the two countries - the similarities are very profound.

Nigeria is the poverty version of America. Else, why would anyone worship a retard like Obi?
