Kobojunkie: Sometimes how many times? This isn't the first time Israel has had to go hard at those mfs. Maybe this is the first time the world has had to watch in near real-time the devastation that results when war is fought, but this ain't the first, or second, or even third time with these very terrorists. You give them a break, and they recoup and come back even harder. I would rather Israel stay the course and finish the job this time. No more deals!😒😒
This is first time they're going THIS hard on them, usually it used to be a few bomb here and there and they call it a day, they hardly ever set boots on the ground. But this time around it was a sustained no holds barred bombing and invasion of Gaza to eliminate as many terrorists as possible and rescue their civilians held captive.
They really pummeled Gaza so hard that hamas can't claim victory after any ceasefire as they usually does, yeah this the first time the world has had to see what "Urban warfare" looks like but this is also the best use of propaganda in history. The propaganda that hamas and it's supporters utilised in this war was top-notch, it was so good that they even got LGBTQ people shilling for them , so the perception of Israel is right now at an all time low, not since the Final solution did Jews face such a thing, but I have got to say they aren't helping their case... Not like they give a damn this time around and that's what scares hamas the most —israel don't seem to give a damn about their perception on the world stage, they just want to get the job done.
I think if this peace deal and disarmament is successful it will really lead to a lasting peace for both Israel and Gaza, the people involved in this one seems to be really serious and meticulous. I hope I'm right though 😅.
The thing about staying on course and finishing the job is that you can't really terminate all the hamas members and fighters without it costing a lot more blood on the civilians, the best way is to reduce their influence in the strip, cut down on their fighting force and then force them to the table to agree on a disarmament.
Hopefully this will go a long way in restoring some kind of peace in that area. Hamas brought a war of destruction upon the very Palestinians they claimed to be fighting for, 70,000 dead and several others wounded and permanently maimed they have finally ( hopefully I must add) realised this was a losing battle from the onset.
Sometimes going really hard on people with this sort of mentality is the best way forward, not whatever it is that our Nigerian government are doing with bandits and terrorists in Nigeria. Hit them so hard that they go pick up their senses wherever they dropped it , or grow one if they had none in the first place.
Sources say the emerging deal requires Hamas to surrender all weapons, destroy tunnels and relinquish power before an Israeli withdrawal, though Hamas-linked accounts are presenting a less sweeping formula.
Israeli officials said Thursday that Hamas appeared to have accepted complete disarmament as part of an emerging agreement on the next phase of the Gaza ceasefire, while Palestinian sources reported progress on the terror group’s weapons, Gaza’s future administration and an eventual Israeli withdrawal.
"The direction appears positive,”officials familiar with the talks said. "It appears Hamas has surrendered and agreed to complete and absolute disarmament.”They said the proposed agreement, if signed, would be “strict and detailed, with no tricks and no compromises,”requiring the dismantling of heavy and light weapons, tunnels, weapons depots and production facilities.
[b]"In practical terms, this is Hamas’ surrender,” [/b]one official said. [b]“It accepted the framework that was already agreed with the mediators several months ago. There is complete dismantlement of heavy weapons, light weapons and tunnels, along with dense and rigorous monitoring mechanisms.”
Sources close to Hamas sought to portray the developing arrangement in less definitive terms, saying Egyptian-mediated talks with international envoys had produced progress on the main issues blocking the transition to the next ceasefire phase. Palestinian reports said an announcement on the understandings could be issued later Thursday.
The Board of Peace for Gaza said talks in Cairo were continuing and advancing, adding that the roadmap called for the dismantlement of all weapons, heavy and light, without exception, alongside the destruction of tunnels, arms depots and production facilities.
At the end of the process, Hamas will have no role in governing Gaza, openly or behind the scenes, and the committee administering Gaza will hold full authority under the principle of one authority, one law and one weapon,” it said. The process would be based on reciprocity and independent verification rather than trust, with each step by one side enabling the next move by the other.
A source close to Hamas who spoke with ynet said a “certain formula” had been developed for handling the group’s weapons, including the possibility of surrendering and storing arms under an agreed mechanism.
"There is a certain formula for transferring and storing the weapons,” the source said. “There is a formula accepted by Hamas and the mediators, and there are also understandings concerning employees and civilian mechanisms.”
He nevertheless expressed doubt that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government would accept anything short of Hamas’ complete disarmament, suggesting the proposal could instead serve as the basis for a future agreement under a different Israeli government.
FreeStuffsNG: Other participating states expressed support but are still completing domestic procedures to formally join, with the door left open for further signatories. I think we should be in this category and not among nations already signed up to fight Saudi's war on Yemen.
Our parliament should have been consulted and approval obtained before our military leaders sign up for such war expedition.
It is Trump's war, not my war as a Patriotic Nigerian. My Asiwaju will not fight Trump's war or waste the lives of our armed forces members to fight Trump-Saudi's wars on Iran and Yemen.
Meanwhile...
Does this guy not know that Tinubu was the one who approved this? Abi does ha think that Tinubu has the guts to say NO to Trump. And you can't say it's not your war when Houthi's actions are going to affect you in Nigeria by way of oil price hike.
JuanDeDios: With all the money Delta has, it has no business on this list. It's a shame.
My brother there's this place in Delta, ughelli called Otigbo, the road there fit give your car hypertension, as in your car go just stop, eject you comot then reverse back begin dey go airport make e fly plane comot that state.
I have never in my life seen a road so bad as that one in Otigbo.
ariesbull: Is it that bad...I noticed that SW is topping the chat in bad infrastructure why is it that and yet they claim IGR and all what not
IGR( Internally Generated Revenue) simply means how much money the government was able to yank out from the pockets of the people in that state. It has nothing to do with Development, if you want to know who is developing look at HDI( Human development index) , that's what will give you an Idea of who's developing and is not. The problem is that some people who lack knowledge in all of these will see VAT returns or IGR and start rejoicing that they're doing well as a state, meanwhile they don't have a clean pipe borne water, no health care, no electricity, no roads, nothing nothing.
sulaak: Why would he want to visit SA? I have never wanted to visit SA in my entire life; I don't even like SA, Black or White. The issue is we need to fix our own country and stop migrating to hostile countries.
Do you people think that a working country will stop migration to other countries?
SirCloudControl: There is a serious question people are not asking, how are these kind of snakes making their way into our ecosystem? Is someone deliberately raising them somewhere and spreading them?
You people sef, you live in a house where rats and lizards roam about and you expect snakes not to come into your house? Another thing is that We humans are constantly destroying Forests and bushes which is their natural habitat and erecting buildings and whatever, of course the snakes will look for somewhere else to hunt which is usually our houses. Lastly this is person in the OP is living outside of Nigeria, my guess is the US, these species of snakes are native to that part of the world.
If you people were more interested in educational programmes and documents you would have known these very simple stuffs but No, na peller, Jarvis, bbnaija Una dey more interested in.
BlackRains: Anambra scored below average, the governor has no clear development plan just building substandard roads and charging agbero's clothes every four market days.
That one is only concerned about who opened shop and who didn't, uneducated professor wey no get sense.
echoxyz: No, it's Abia not Enugu. Abia is the best state in the whole of Africa.
In obidients voice....
Just cos Enugu governor is of the APC party.
Either they like it or not APC is still the most popular political party is south east. With 3 stares out of 5. That's 60 percent, no other party is even close.
Not that I am an apc member or supporter, just want to whyne their emotional brain this morning.
Imo and Ebonyi are ruled by APC and yet they're among the worst improved states. This milestone by Enugu has nothing to do with the party in power, it's all due to the foresight and great works of the governor, he will perform just as good if he were in YP.
AdolfHitlerxXx: if the Ebinpawa is affecting us more, why leave your Heaven in droves to join us in Hell ?
Usw your 5&sixx... I am sure when YaPaale said you won the war you believed the imb3
We're coming there to buy up lands and properties, don't you get it? We buy your properties with a few millions, you people use the money to go and sow lace, eat ram and carry small small girls, when the money finishes you come online and start crying "They've bought all the lands in my Village"
humberjade: I don't need to be told what I already know, and it wasn't even a direct reply to my comment. I hold a BA in History and Diplomatic Studies, so I am well aware of Nigeria's relationship with its neighbours, as well as the complexities and challenges involved.
Nigeria may be facing many problems, but for someone from Cameroon to claim that he is shocked by the level of development and sophistication of Nigerians and Nigerian cities comes across as condescending. While we share a border, the reality is that Nigeria and Cameroon differ significantly in terms of population, economic influence, regional leadership, and global presence.
If you actually acquired those degrees as you claim you wouldn't be so dismissive of that information as you just did.
madridguy: The people there are not even up to 500 people
Here in the US, protest don't have to be attended by thousands or millions of people for it to make an impact. It's not like in Nigeria where the impact of a protest is determined by the number of attendees.
Imagine person, way talk say him won hold meeting with i-ranian delegate
Your country, they at war, with a nation, you come dey romance with the people way your country they fight against.
And na common local government chairman ooooh....
To win senator, go really hard for ram
There's a massive rise of cognitive dissonance going on right now here in the US, naive liberals leftists stanning for those who thinks their way of life is haram, LGBTQ supporting Hamas and Hezbollah —Chickens for KFC we call them. These people constitutes a huge voting block and Mandami who's a politician is hoping to capitalise on their naivety by saying the things they want to hear.
Wizardslayer: These people and their cravings for sex.
THEY have to go all the way to the afterlife just for VIRGINS.
Not just virgins, but virgins with an everlasting standing breast who will remain virgins no matter how many times they're slept with. The whole thing is a sex cult, I don't understand how any reasonable right thinking educated person would look at that and say " Yeah this makes sense, I will convert immediately". The funny part is that the women don't get anything, they're not rewarded with 72 young agile hot lads who will service them at all times, nope! Their only reward is that they will become one of those 72 virgins. WTF
SixSeven: Do you know why they say Atiku is not a Nigerian but from Cameroon?
Part of it is our shared history. The original 19th-century Adamawa Emirate was a territory that covered parts of northeastern Nigeria and much of what is now northern Cameroon. Colonial partitioning by the British and Germans split the historic region right down the middle. Later, following a UN plebiscite at independence, parts of British Cameroons voted to permanently join Nigeria, which is why those borderlands and the shared culture are part of Nigeria's Adamawa today.
Let me humor you. Political scientists often recognize the NCNC as Nigeria's first political party with a truly national and cross-regional appeal, rather than just being localized to Lagos. What is the meaning of NCNC? National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons. Founded in 1944 by Herbert Macaulay and Nnamdi Azikiwe as a joint nationalist front to fight British colonial rule.
Yeah. The funny thing about the whole Atiku not being a Nigerian but a Cameroonian due that history is that the people who are WRONGLY accused of not being Nigerians are the only ones who actually Voted to be Nigerians. So that makes them more Nigerian the rest of us who had no choice or say in being included in the country created by the British crown.
The online ones can shout. Offline, they MUST bow.
Kanu instructed this, I can bet
Tomorrow now your brothers will come on nairaland crying that SE people have bought all the lands and properties in Ogbomosho rendering the indigenes homeless and landless. Remember to inform them that the people buying up those properties are Their servants 🤣🤣
Emeskhalifa: Just my Opinion though, why not relocate to Lagos? It's better than relocating to Abia. Pls have a rethink
well, some people don't have the stomach for that Lagos chaotic life where you're living on the fast lane 24/7, no peace of mind, no light, endless taxation etc. Abịa is calm, cool, less stressful, clean and you get your money's worth when it comes to electricity. Oh.. did mention it is way cheaper too?
Besides I don't think the OP is looking to relocate sha
