They have given Iran last warning ⚠️, that if they trow one more missile the whole if Iran will burn 🔥 and if Isreal can talk like this it is not an empty threat, which means all their family around the 🌎 world and supporters here will shout and cry more.

This thing is getting deeper.

China, turkey, russia, are plotting on how to restock I-ran's weapons. I don't think USA, china, and russia will go to war, but they will show off big time in the region..



The great state of Israel needs to build some outpost of weapons cache, and weapons manufacturing in Igbo land.



on the real, what does iran really want?
Israel have been avoiding direct confrontation with iran for the longest. We all witnessed how Iran got mad at Israel last year, because israel mossad dealt with terrorists in Iran. We witnessed over 200 missle strikes on Israel, then another one, .. only a fool will wait for the third one. So, sir did preemptive strikes.


As it is now sha, china is about to secretly get in. They want America and Israel to be bogged down in the middle east. Too many chinese ships and submarines have been going around iran in the last few days. Right now, the chinese are being shamed as not dependable friends, which might get to them.


May God continue to bless the great state of Israel. The road ahead will be tough. Iran and her fake allies have decided to help, especially turkey.
You Dey there when China Russia and turkey Dey meet abi?

Lies full Una mouth like small children.

I think it's the religion. The religion forbids Iran from possessing nukes. Islamic law prohibit environmental damage, destruction of agriculture, earth and generation and there's also this strong belief that the innocent ought not to suffer with the guilty and nuke doesn't differentiate between the innocent and guilty. Stockpiling and usage of nukes (weapon grade) is purely haram in Iran.

Iran could have easily developed their nukes since the 1979 revolution given the brains or human resources and mass uranium deposit of the country but religion has a way of interfering with logical reasoning. At least, Iran could have developed it for deterrence sake.
😁 which religion??

But the same religion permits them to own ballistic missiles and sponsor terrorists.

How some of Una Dey think sef ?

I will keep repeating what I have been saying for years after witnessing Libya, Iraq and Syria war, until Iran armed herself with nukes.
Isreali(USA) will keep bombing them.
Pak government has supported and financed more terrorists than Iranian government yet USA financed and supported Pak nuclear weapons and am sure that they have up to 500 by now.

Almost all the terror against USA/EU countries were done by Pak/ Saudi citizens or trained in Pak, or Saudi NOT Iran

Iran is surrounded by enemies yet failed to by build nukes to protect herself, nobody is more useless than Arab leaders.
I’m very sure Algeria is next due to a long stand now against France.
Syria and Iraq nukes site program was destroyed by Israeli military yet same Isreali military have nukes.

Even the war between Russia and Ukraine will never happen if both have nukes because Ukraine will not need to join NATO.
USA fear that Iran owning nukes will make UAE/Saudi to arm themselves with nuclear weapons which will make USA useless in that region.
Iran supreme leader will be the fall of Iran unless something changes

Russia was very smart to transferred those Iranian drones production to inside Russia territory.
The Isreali attack on Iran is the best news to Ukrainian government , they have been since day one Iran support Russia with drones.
And also great news for Russia because Ukraine is not USA focus for now
talk here and there with no direction.

Boy this is not going as well as I tot for the Israelis , until Benjamin Netanyahu is removed , there will be no peace in Middle East, he is a criminal and a war monger , endangering the lives of millions , talks were still on and u start a war and Iranians can never ever use nuclear bomb on any one off
Which useless talks have they been talking for years?

Do you know how long they have been having this their talk?

So Israel should wait for Iran to make a nuclear bomb to destroy them?

They are not Nigeria that has been crying about foreign fighters running amok here.

Yes, it is! The pace of price increases has slowed considerably, and in some cases, prices have even decreased compared to 2023 and 2024. Also, we’ve seen stability in FX, coupled with a positive balance of trade and most fiscal legroom for government finance through lower debt service to revenue. Most leading indicators such as stock market, PMI, consumer sentiments, etc., are all looking positive. In layman’s terms: the most popular staple foods prices are either down or static. God bless the president and his team. Special kunduns 😂 to Cardozo and his team.

There’s more to be done—like we need to bring inflation under 15% and reduce MPR to about same to encourage productive borrowing & increase wages. We can still do better!
These people, Una well so?

Prices everything jumped up at least, *3 of what it used to be before these disasters stole power and you are here saying you are seeing stability.

TravelRe: How Introverts Can Travel Solo Without Stress, Pressure, Or Burnout by cucumbar: 2:34am On Jun 10, 2025
Asuneblog:
A lot of people assume that solo travel is only for the bold, the extroverted, and the endlessly adventurous. But what if you enjoy your own company, value peace, and find crowds exhausting?

That’s where introverted solo travel comes in , and it’s not just possible, it can be deeply fulfilling.

As an introvert myself, I used to wonder if solo travel would just be... lonely. But what I’ve learned is this: when done right, solo travel can be one of the most calming, empowering things you ever do.

If you’ve been thinking about traveling alone, but something’s been holding you back — anxiety, uncertainty, or just not knowing where to start, here are a few things that helped me make the shift.

1. You don’t need to go far (or fast) Start small. A weekend trip to a nearby city or a quiet nature retreat is a great first step. It helps you figure out what kind of travel rhythm works for you without the pressure of flights, language barriers, or major planning.

2. Plan your energy, not just your itinerary.
Introverts burn out when there’s too much stimulation. You don’t need a packed schedule. Plan one meaningful activity a day and leave the rest open. Morning journaling, peaceful walks, or sitting by a window with a good meal — these moments make the journey more enjoyable.

3. Pick places that match your pace.
Some destinations are naturally introvert-friendly. Think: Kyoto’s quiet temples, Tuscany’s countryside villages, Ljubljana’s riverside cafés, or Reykjavík’s cozy, creative energy. These are places where solo travelers feel welcome.

4. Be okay with not talking
It’s okay to go a whole day without long conversations. Smile. Nod. Say thank you. But you don’t owe anyone your story unless you want to share it. Solo travel gives you space to connect on your own terms.

5. Bring your grounding tools
For me, it’s a playlist, a journal, and a hoodie. For you, it might be a Kindle, prayer routine, or photo of home. These little things help you stay centered when the unfamiliar feels overwhelming.

6. Tech is your quiet travel buddy
Google Maps, Google Translate, Booking.com, and Calm — four apps I’ve used over and over. They help you stay oriented, communicate with ease, find peaceful accommodation, and stay mentally calm.


If any of this sounds like your style of travel, I wrote a full guide on it: practical tips, mindset shifts, destination suggestions, and tools that make the journey smoother.

Read the full article here: https://www.asuneblog.com.ng/2025/06/solo-travel-tips-for-introverts-beat.html

Whether you’ve already traveled solo or you’re still dreaming of it, this guide might give you that gentle push to go for it in your own quiet, meaningful way.

Safe travels. And remember: you don’t have to be loud to explore the world.
Whats the big deal with introverts traveling solo? And who says they have not been traveling solo or are scared to do so?

Don’t you think they even enjoy and prefer going solo?

I’m an introvert, and I prefer traveling alone, and have been doing so for a while.

PoliticsRe: I Pity Tinubu, 22 PDP Govs Endorsed Jonathan Yet He Lost Re-election — Ndume by cucumbar: 1:01pm On Jun 09, 2025
kay29000:
I thought you guys always say he rigged the whole elections? Or did he forget to rig lagos?


And you guys talk about him loosing lagos as if it was by a large margin. Both Tinubu and Obi got 500k plus votes in lagos, Obi beat him with a few tens of thousands. When this happened was when I knew the election was really free and fair, cos it is clear that Obi's tribal people voted for him 100% (and we know their populationis highbin lagos), and add the youth movement he had, yoruba youths voted for him in droves...that's what gave him the edge. And his supporters turned around to abuse those same people, making it seem like they won lagos on their own.
lies.. which few 10s of thousands?

Obi beat am massively. If not that it was rigged, Tinubu did not Get 10k votes in the Lagos that he built.

That’s why they are going about destroying properties.

Forget what that guy said about the north.

He lost that election, if not for INEC .

Why did BVAS go down ? That should give you your answer.

The present high cost of living was brought about by the subsidies removal from both pms and dollar which other two top contestants in the last presidential election also promise to remove if voted for.
They didn’t say they were going to remove it like the unfortunate chief agbero did…

FamilyRe: Married Men's Greatest Regret About Marriage: You Could Learn From This Too by cucumbar: 11:00pm On Jun 07, 2025
TheWebbers:
Nairaland is the wrongest place to bring marriage topics.

Watch has this thread will be flooded by under 30 jobless men.

They will tell you how worhtless women are and how marriage is not worth it, and how they can never marry in this life.

But meanwhile, if they give you just 5 minutes access to their phone, you will open your mouth waaa with what you will see. You will see them begging women for attention and sending gifts she never asked for.

Truth is, an heterosexual man is nothing without a woman in his life. Not women but a woman. You are just not completely fulfilled no matter how much you try.

The topics of marriage that makes it to the internet are the bad ones because it is news worthy. There is no news about a working marriage. So whenever you see a marriage thread, its the bad one and people will think that is how all the marriages in the world are. But for every bad marriage and divorce that made it to the news, there are 1500 good ones that dont make it.

I have been married for 3 years and I'm loving it. My wife is the most stubborn woman I have met in my life. In fact we just finished settling one minor qurell before typing this. But she is also the sweetest gift I have ever had. I dont know what would have happened to me if I didn't marry her. She is the kindest, sweetest and most loving human being I know.

Yes, there are conflicts but we have made a decision not to go to sleep without sorting it out. And this has helped us.

Marriage is sweet for many and sour for some. But in general, train yourself to be a good and loving person and when there are conflicts, iron it out fast before it degenerates.
Speak for yourself. Personalize the bolded.

Learn not to view everyone through your myopic lenses.
