True, but China can buy from Russia at this point and Russia is making lots of money from this war. Iran has been under sanctions for 47 years, I think they are desperate to make the world suffer with them and they will not back down.
Elon musk has said if the blockade enter May, the world economy will suffer irreparably damage and that is what Iran wants. The USA helping them to achieve that would be stupidity

You're right. China has an alternative and even reserve to sustain them.

For those who may not fully understand what Donald Trump is trying to do, here is the situation. During the heat of the conflict, Iran moved to block the Strait of Hormuz while still selling oil to its allies, with China being the most prominent. With this move, Iran’s oil cannot pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which affects both Iran and its allies, while the allies of the United States are still able to move their oil through the route. This gives the United States a stronger position in negotiations.

The difficult part is that if Iran decides to strike the United States first, it would be seen as a clear invitation to war. But then blocking the channel also hurts Iran’s main source of revenue, which is oil exports may force Iran to respond militarily. Again it equally exposes United States forces to possible direct attacks from the Iranian military, especially since their ships are within Iran’s reach. To make matters more complicated, some United States allies have already refused to participating the blockade which mean they may have to act alone.

Both sides need to find a way to resolve their differences and stop putting the rest of the world under pressure.

You equally failed to include that he was a friend of Putin.

Accept ke? As if he was never interested.

This man na real werey

That colour is linked to a well known fraternity in Nigeria, no be my mouth you go hearam. For you to have identified or associated the symbols or colour means you already have one in mind. As for Kaduna being associated with cultism, there's cvltism in that state.

I just like this man. He reminds me of Yaradua. Unfortunately, the chances of people like him ever becoming a Vice or President is almost zero.

You could have just called it a vow of modesty instead of misleading people and calling it poverty.
Poverty is not synonymous to modesty.

Probably you didn't see the part where I used the word or phrase 'some' or 'in this context'. You just want to attack because you have access to data. I repeat again, 'in this context'. If you feel the usage of the word 'poverty' is not suitable you can probably suggest another word or replacement without sounding aggressive or arrogant.

I know it is AI generated, that means subject to errors. But you don't need to be a reverend sister to do any of these.

Ofcourse! The reason you don't need to be a Rev. Sister, Priest or pastor before you can preach or serve the Lord.

tctrills:
You can do all these without being a reverend sister. Lastly, why take vows of poverty? Is that even of God?

There're some Rev. Sisters who are rich. In this context, poverty means modesty. In other words, the goal is not for you to be wealthy but to use whatever that God has bless you with (knowledge, skill or position) to serve Him.

In the Catholic Church, Reverend Sisters (women in consecrated religious life) serve through a combination of spiritual commitment, community life, and practical service. Their roles vary depending on the charism of their religious order, but generally include the following:

1. Prayer and Spiritual Service
Prayer is central to their vocation. Many sisters commit to daily prayer, communal worship, and personal meditation. Through intercession and spiritual guidance, they support the faith and wellbeing of individuals and communities.

2. Education
A large number of sisters work in schools as teachers, head teachers, or education administrators. They help shape moral, intellectual, and spiritual development in children and youths, especially in mission and underserved areas.

3. Health Care
Many sisters serve in hospitals, clinics, and rehabilitation centres as nurses, counsellors, administrators, or caregivers. Their work includes caring for the sick, the elderly, and vulnerable populations, often in areas with limited healthcare resources.

4. Social and Humanitarian Work
Reverend Sisters often support vulnerable groups such as orphans, widows, refugees, victims of violence, and people experiencing poverty. They may run orphanages, shelters, feeding programmes, skills-training centres, and advocacy programmes for justice and human dignity.

5. Pastoral and Evangelisation Work
They assist in parish life through catechesis, sacramental preparation, youth ministry, family counselling, and organising church activities. In rural or mission communities, sisters sometimes take on key pastoral responsibilities when priests are not regularly available.

6. Administration and Leadership
Within their congregations, sisters take on leadership roles such as community superior, principal of schools, hospital administrator, or director of social service centres. They also participate in decision-making processes in dioceses and religious institutions.

7. Living the Vows
Reverend Sisters publicly commit to the evangelical vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. These vows guide their lifestyle and decisions, reflecting a life dedicated to service rather than personal accumulation.

In summary, Reverend Sisters serve as educators, caregivers, social workers, spiritual guides, and community builders, contributing significantly to church life and society at large.

If upper part is like this, I wonder how the down part will look like- Am@zon forest.

Two factors worked in their favour: the Strait of Hormuz and their continuous attacks on neighbouring states. These developments disrupted the price of crude oil and triggered a ripple effect on the cost of goods and services. The rising prices intensified political pressure on President Trump, and with the midterm elections approaching, there was a growing need to bring the conflict to an end.

How many come remain for the community?🙆‍♂️

Are you looking for recruit or sacrificial lambs?

The reason we should learn to mind our business.

May be you should post pictures of the thieves who worked against president Goodluck and are currently doing than his administration.

Was it not this same lady that complained about being used by one pastor? Same lady criticised Gov. Alex Otti for lack of performance and later changed her statement ? Well, I don't blame her but gullible ones who listen to her.

Borno too had better qualified leaders.

Both sides need to sheathe their swords. This war has gone on long enough. It should not come at the expense of innocent people.

Imagine this person as the company's receptionist?

Does it mean Elrufai statement about tapping of phone was also a figure of speech?

For those who may not understand, Umuahia is still under EEDC. Recently, some communities were migrated to Band A or B, which resulted in a significant increase in electricity tariffs. In my own community, for instance, residents requested a more stable power supply, and EEDC granted the request. Unfortunately, this led to a sharp rise in costs, with electricity bills increasing from about ₦10,000 to ₦50,000. Ironically, the same community members are now the ones complaining.

From Sahara reporter? I'm not surprised at all. I've checked aljazeera and BBC, I can't find this news in any of these news channels.

Congratulations to them. They had an opportunity and made maximum use of it unlike Nigeria.

Ofcourse we do even though this is an old video.

I miss Dubic and grand malt. My consolation is beta malt.

I don't expect him to resign. He's already a bad market except the president wants him to be party’s flag bearer for Oyo State.

Here's the irony. They blocked their people from accessing the Internet yet they use the Internet infact social media that belongs to the so called 'enemy' to share their views.
