Why should Iran with their history be allowed to get nukes? To be candid it's only gonna spur on other middle eastern countries to push for their own weapons. That region is very unstable now.

He is giving you people a dose of your own medicine. Nigerians like any man able to return fire for fire and then some. Vote as you like, FFK and Fayose are the best things happening to Jonathan's media team in last 60 days. You people will suddenly learn how to communicate with respect
All those sympathy he gained during 2011 election, he's lost a lot of it already, chiefly due to FFK and fayose. Buhari is gaining that sympathy now, and yes pdp gave it to him through their constant attacks on him, even down to his late wife and all. And the wise man is just absorbing all the insults without firing any shots because he knows he's gonna laugh longest, so make jokes all you want now because there will be crying days ahead for PDP.

Nigerians will suddenly notice a cooling down of the political temperature in this country. FFK and Fayose have accomplished what Jonathan's media wouldn't in 5 years. APC have met their match and then some.
Do you think he is doing GEJ a favour? GEJ portrays a gentle meek man but appoints FFK as his spokesman, who is being decieved, those of us who listen to him just do it for the comic relief, saying someone wears pampers, someone has bad breadth, the other day he said he had a party with bianca ojukwu, lol ...we will laugh now because it is so amusing to see all this from a presidential campaign spokesman, then we will vote on march 28 and see how much help he was for the GEJ's re-election bid.

PoliticsRe: Saudi Strategy Is Paying Off by giantstrides(m): 8:33pm On Mar 02, 2015
[quote author=ifyan post=31232520][/quote]All over the world, even russia and china have oil shale deposits in large quantities but their tech makes it very expensive for drilling it so china simply prefers buying, even USA just discovered a way of drilling their shale oil more cheaply than before, that's what I meant by exporting that tech to other countries. Imagine if they do tht, russia won't be able to use it's Gas to threaten europe anymore because there will be massive increase in oil supply globally. Its been said that. USA has three times more than saudi's oil as their shale oil reserves, now they are producing their own oil, imagine if china starts producing their oil too? USA and China are highest oil users in the world. Russia was considering cutting supply to europe over the sanctions imposed on them, they can do that because china needs oil and will buy it from them, what if china start producing their oil, what now happens? They are forced to sell back to the west and by that time other countries wld be producing their oil through oil shale tech ( even UK has shale oil deposit ) .
Low price of oil doesn't affect USA much, they created the surplus themselves and they know wht they are doing. Its just another political weapon from them

I thought shale oil is natural, what do you mean by tech
It's harder to get shale oil, it's quite diff from the conventional means of getting oil, Right now only US companies have that tech.

Yeah, you are right, It was sunk from within.
PoliticsRe: Saudi Strategy Is Paying Off by giantstrides(m):
The USA doesn't care that much about the low price of oil, if it gets too low they wil simply halt production and start buying again like they have been doing before. This whole low oil price actually to America's advantage, simply because its helping to slow the growth of powerful countries like Russia, Iran , Venezuela and nigeria. This countries depend on a $100 ber barrel market, iran and russia are already being hit by economic sanctions, iran has to work harder now to find buyers for its oil , the low price of oil is affecting russia seriously, a rouble to a dollar now has fallen seriously about 40% , venezuela is in a crisis, they have a really long queue just to get groceries in their country now, while NIgeria's growth has been expected to slow down this year due to low oil prices. All this powerful countries are worrying to the US as they counter the US influence in their region, so the US is actuallly very comfortablle with the low price of oil, so much so that they are considering exporting their shale oil tech to other countries who have oil but can't explore it.

PoliticsRe: How Goodluck Jonathan Destroyed APC's Momentum - A Nairalander's Analysis. by giantstrides(m): 10:27pm On Feb 28, 2015
You know very little about politics, both party cannot maintain the pre feb tempo till march 28 wait till 2 weeks before election and see what happens, the whole country will be heated up again and be very certain APC has something very bad about the govt they will only release very close to the election, something tht will sway the major electorate. Think about this, why didn't APC release the ekiti election tape until so close to the election, why did you think DSS kept going after APC trying to see wht card they were playing at, did you really think they expected to find election rigging materials there ?...politics is a game of strategy, the plan is to sway the electorates and the reward is power. You know very little about politics

Bro of course those kind jazz dey, I no deny am. I'm just curious if the natural protection which stop the bullets from piercing the skin, can they can stop 12MM bullets ? Because whenever BH attacks their technicals are mounted with such guns.

Oremus is latin for 'let us pray' Sanctus means 'holy'.

Just wondering if Chadian forces recover weapons from boko boys do they keep it or they hand it over to naija soldiers
Okay, thanks for the interpretation...on the other hand trust the Chadians to put those guns on the black market again, they are not much of a proffessional force. Forget whatever praises the western media have wrongly given them.

That Zik of Africa is not what, the only man you can find his name in nigeria constitution, that single handedly negotiated nigeria independence,Zik assisted Ghana to fight colonialism through his west african pilot established in Ghana before he championed our own independence I guess you are still a kid
so does it merit being among the five most famous people ever out of Nigeria? I guess u didn't get my point so no use arguing with you. I gave you three names the world knows, those are the most famous people recognised outside of Nigeria and I think only those three enjoy total recognition the world over and you come here to tell me abt ZIK influence in Ghana, what abt OBJ's fight for the black southafricans during apartheid, do you know how popular tht made him? Yet he still doesn't enjoy tht fame the other three enjoy, just face it.

PoliticsRe: Guess Which 5 Nigerians Are Included In List Of World's Most Famous? by giantstrides(m): 11:00pm On Feb 27, 2015
I only see three people who merit being on tht list, achebe, soyinka and TB Joshua...tht list should acknowledge how famous those people are all over the world, for instance wht makes GEJ appear on the list wht is the difference between him and other past presidents? OBJ was much more famous during his time, Abacha was infamous, lol but no one can deny knowing those people, ZIK isn't that famous too as to be on that list. My two cents

Of course they were sponsored, most of them didn't even know who buhari is, watch TVC news in the evening or BEN TV. One would have thought if PDP would have done this rightly, it's just a party full of dumb people.

PoliticsRe: Why Igbo's May Remain Politically Irrelevant In Nigeria by giantstrides(m):
I think Igbo's always make the wrong alignments in politics. I still don't understand the psychology behind supporting a candidate blindly and fully, what if he loses the election? Right from before independence of Nigeria Igbo's have always supported the wrong people. First was when Awolowo's AG called for a coalition with Zik's NCNC so the South could have a shot at ruling Nigeria first over the North. NCNC however aligned with the Northern NCP which had majority members in the parliament thereby giving the north power on a platter of Gold, they became a junior partner in the aggrement whereas if they had aligned with AG they would have being the senior partner since they had 23 members to AG's 18. The North haven't released their strangle hold on Nigeria since then. Till date those unwise decisions are still being made, what if GEJ looses, the new Govt might not be favourable to the south east the same way GEJ neglected the south west, however let's assume GEJ wins and completes another four years. How will the Igbo's rule Nigeria then, who will they turn to as allies, the south south, the yoruba's or the Hausa's? Igbo's have to think very clearly about their political descisions because whichever way the election goes I don't see good prospects. Sometimes the future should be considered when making political descisions. Even if there would be support for GEJ it should not be at the detriment of Igbo chances in the future.
