Mid term election may stop the madness if democrats regain both houses

You see how you shift the goal post and refuse to talk about fixing our healthcare system. Hand go touch everybody.

The healthcare system is not the reason people give birth in America bruv, is it not for the passport and the opportunities it will bring?

I have friends here in the UK who just returned from Canada after giving birth there, is the health care system in the UK like Nigeria? Canada's waiting list is even worse.

But that will hit us squarely. These were programs designed to help us. To start righting centuries old wrongs which are still impacting people today.

Now this manbaby who was born into wealth, given everything by his father has taken that away.

You know he is an anchor baby. His mother was fresh off the boat from Scotland. His current wife has brought her entire family over.

From the way he talks you would be forgiven for thinking he came over on the bleeding Mayflower.

I always laugh when I see folks from ethnic minority backgrounds speaking against DEI. Since yesterday I've been seeing some of Trump's supporters trying to cherry-pick his policies and I am saying are you kidding me? Dude is an entire package you have to accept wholly, no cherry-picking. You collect wetin you see. The consolation however is that it's just 4 years and all the madness will be over and folks can at least start all over again.

lavida001:
Give me one reason why Nigerian politicians and elite refuse to give birth to their children in Nigeria.

Maybe with this order they will quit being greedy and begin to fix the dilapidated healthcare system in Nigeria or they will find another safe haven that offers citizenship by birth.

we have said here and over again that Nigeria and Africans are never and will never be the highest beneficiaries of immigration all over the world, the Latinos are the greatest beneficiaries of birth citizenship in America so bro always cool down with this rhetoric cos it does not add up. Africans are still the ones staying put in their continent compared to others. Even in Canada, no African country is even in the top 5 of asylum seekers or any immigration route there.

1. He can't and he knows it.

2. Yes he can and have done that before, when he left office Biden re-entered

3. Again the same as WHO, He previously withdrew in 2017, before Biden re-entered.

4. Another one of those bs from him, he can't enforce that.

5. He can only do that within govt establishment, private organisations will make their own decision to end that program if they so wish.

6, Again just like No5 he has limited power to enforce that.

7. No surprise there.

This is just the repeat of his first time in office, mostly noise with little or no substance.

Many big organizations already abolishing DEI

MT:
Trump has just undermined the US national security interest

are you sure his supporters know this?

Goodenoch:
2nd amendment - “constitution is inviolable and must be interpreted literally at all times”.

14th amendment - “actually you know what? We are just going to reinterpret the constitution here”.

What should be clear to everyone is that all the talk about constitutionalism, economy etc. are all thin veneers over the actual things bothering MAGA and their counterparts in other countries.

One can take any view as to those concerns but the key thing for immigrants to be aware of is how things might play out going forward (flare-ups of mass hysteria about the economy can be very different from mass hysteria about ethnicity).

In short, plan your lives accordingly to secure yourself and your interests just as transactionally as the country is doing with you.

well said, in short, there is no need to lose sleep because there is nothing unpredictable about the season upon us. It's as clear as daylight. I hope folks will yield and take your advice seriously. Making noise now is just plain ignorance, not all consequences are avoidable.

Bliss4Lyfe:
Trump has only 4 years to do all his nonsense, after that, another executive order will return it back.

It is that easy, soldier go, soldier come besides the courts can still strike it down.

Simple, after four years the madness will be over

Thank you.

Print everything from the site, the receipt, the application form with photo, the acknowledgment slip, and everything the site can give and take along. Cheers

It will be a rugpull, of course with Trump cashing out but every single buyer deserves to lose their money. Every one of them.

Awon badt guys, 😂 they wan recover campaign money sharp sharp,no time!

Struggling to hold onto Michelle? In what way?
That is a true power couple. They met in Harvard, both top notch lawyers .and even at obama's scarily good levels of public speaking, she is better than him.

That's a partnership. Bet Obama did not bat an eye when she said she wasn't going.

this one is very true, no be lie at all!

Lexusgs430:
If Obama is struggling to hold unto Michelle, what chance do we mere mortals have...... 😊

oga lexus this your comment dey make me suspect you

jedisco:
Lol... daddy Elon




Just imagine if it was Rishi subjugating himself to Andani Brothers or if it was Kemi frolicking over Dangote. The likes of Farage and the general public would have been up in arms about unwanted interference. Now it's Elon... na siddon look we dey. When I look at the UK-U.S.relationship, it's not very far off from the way Elon and Farage ride.
All said, the reach of Elon is becoming dangerous. One person should not weild such power.

Shebi when prince Harry and Megan went to Nigeria and was airlifted by Air Peace, the media here was up in arms about Harry frolicking with the Air peace ceo they referred to as a con man. Na their way jare only them are most righteous. phew

jedisco:
Hehe.. money good oo.

Someone is courting your wife in public, saying you're unfit to be a father. You response is 'we're still friends'?, 'I'm travelling to his house to mend fences'. I wonder how the conco would go. I wonder if Farage would be offered a sit in Musk’s presence.


Asked whether the two were still friends, Mr Farage told Sky News: “Of course we’re friends. He just says what he thinks at any moment in time. Look, he said lots of supportive things. He said one thing that wasn’t supportive. I mean, that’s just the way it is.” “ I am confident that whatever has been said we can mend. I really think we can. He said what he said… Of course I want his support, of course I will talk to him in America in a few days time, of course I want to mend any broken fences that might exist. I’m sure we can do it.”

it's difficult to unfriend the richest man in the world, it's what it is. Many out there are dying to be in Farage's shoes so bro need to behave or be sent packing

idee91:
I chatted with one of their reps using the online chat function, seems the policy holder would have to return to Nigeria and make another trip. Would try calling them tomorrow to clarify, thanks 👍

Combine Allianz and Axa. Last time I did, Allianz was far cheaper though coverage may not be as much as Axa but at least you can have a cover for the entire duration. You can buy in Naira as if you’re traveling from Nigeria I think which makes it far cheaper.

Cyberknight:
Read the FAQs, especially the one concerning maximum policy duration.
Ultimately if you cant get any for more than 90 days, then buy more than one policy with overlapping start and end dates so your mother is always covered.

Exactly what I did for a relative, I even used a combination of Allianz and Axa to cover the entire duration of stay. Best option I think

Mujtahida:
When Europeans were in Africa did you just accept it? No! It was resisted as it should. We fought it hard. You remember the wave of resistance to colonialism that swept through Africa in the 50s down to the 80s

You've got Indians pouring in, Chinese, Pakistanis, Nigerians, Syrians, Arabs pouring into the small island of England, changing its demographics and culture and on the basis of migration, you'd want an Englishman to accept that? Would you accept it if the reverse was the case? Walahi I will not. Nations are families. So just about any person will come to my house and stake a claim in competition with my child? I will boot the person out.

You migrate to another man's land, you are a migrant. Even deep inside you, you know it.

My point is that self preservation is the first law of nature. Every people have the right to do what is best for their people. As an immigrant, migrants are doing what they feel is best for them but they should not be surprised when they meet resistance.

In Nigeria, you see the same idea in that every ethnic group has their geographic space with certain privileges and entitlements. To flood a nation with different people each with their different cultures to the point where the indigenous people and culture is almost eradicated is nothing but a form of genocide and cultural suicide.

You have valid points and I really admire them but don't forget all this multiculturalism and changing demography didn't just happen by the will of those who migrated there, in fact, it was the making of the West as they saw it as an opportunity to enrich themselves at the expense of others (that's the fact) and one thing I detest is when they start kicking against what they created by themselves. The blacks who play for France didn't select themselves and impose themselves on the team, is their coach black? So they knew what they were doing all these while but because it is beginning to threaten their supremacy is the reason they are now crying foul and the reality is that they can't eat their cake and have it. They all took advantage of mass migration to get cheap Labour to maximize profit for Business. The West is very transactional in their dealings and doesn't do charity in any way and will continue never mind all this noise, it's not that straightforward. It's all about the cowries for them.

Mujtahida:
I don't understand how black people cry for space in white man land and when they don't get it, they start crying racism all over the place. I can understand if its America because of their peculiar history but Europe, mbanu. European people - just like any other people - owe themselves a duty to put their people first and even last.

That's how Larry Madowo, the Kenyan CNN reporter went to Argentina and started complaining that he did not see any black man. Haaaa so have you seen other races complain of not seeing their people in Africa?

If there's one thing I hate, it's DEI, multiculturalism and every other woke nonsense that panders to the idea of making homogeneous societies less homogenous. I look at the present French team and I feel sorry for the French people.

Look at England. They basically have tribes now: black tribes, brown tribes, Muslim tribes (I have nothing against Muslims, I'm just stating a fact). They have become a mixed people.

And that signifies that they are going down. Because I feel one of the reasons why Nigeria is the way it is, is because of the mix of over 300 ethnic groups. It's literally babel. So if Europeans allow themselves to be bludgeoned and surrender to DEI, they will become babel.

You can't understand until you truly live among them bruv. Humans are migratory and no one should feel apologetic about advancing their human potential wherever they found themselves, the same Europeans migrated years back to South Africa and all over Africa to seek the same opportunities blacks are now seeking in the West same thing they did in North America, Australia, and others. So they took multiculturalism to other places including here in Nigeria and they even divided Africa among themselves back then so how has it become now a sin to have the same in Europe?

jedisco:
Lol... na today? Its a well known fact- we are only here only cos we're needed not wanted and reason why I'm unapologetic in seeking out the best for myself. To be fair though, this is an opinion piece on the Torygraph
They should bring AI on, let people benefit.
In their minds, after care workers have suffered for 5yrs on minimum wage and taxed heavily for settlement fees- what stops them as citizens from descending on the benefit system with vengeance... afterall everybody get wetin dey do am and what some of them go thru is enough to cause PTSD.

The odd thing is that a good chunk of the labour shortages in care, farming, construction etc can be filled locally by supporting the millions on longterm sick back to work but any proper conversation on that is shot down by a baying mob.

Torygraph indeed, omo those people no get joy at all. Make content creators no spoil this AI o, na to dey form AI specialist bayi, AI care, AI baker, AI construction worker etc. AI fashion designer sef

chai, for this new year?

never knew those folks were still in there chai

All this talk about Amunike and Co. is because of our administrators who always lower the bar when it comes to the selection of coaches and players. Just like the issue about our midfield when the issue of Nwakali keeps coming up.

If you want a coach for the National team, please get an experienced coach with a very visible track record or when you invite players make sure they are those who can truly deliver and all this noise about alternative coaches and players will cease. But for as long as we keep enduring mediocrity the arguments and conversations will continue. We can't be replacing coaches with people who don't have better records than those they are replacing. This has always been the norm in our football (I can give examples wella) and we think we will just conquer the world, haba

codemaniacs:
when they eventually win the laurels they don't attribute to the black players...

when Osimh:en scored and assisted consistently for Napoli which led to them winning Serie A how did Napoli and the ital:ian media treat him ?

yes na, shebi even some folks here were blasting Osihmen for his behaviour and some of us here were constantly explaining reasons and how terrible the club was but No some believed it was Osihmen at fault. It's all use and dump and never wanting to share the spotlight, is the reason why it will be difficult for many black coaches to emerge in Europe.

codemaniacs:
been born in Wes:tern nations' or carrying Wes:tern nations' passports does not make the person ethnicity to become European or scot or english or welsh or german or italian e.t.c..

it is not subjective.. ethnicity is very important..

but the same ethnicity is not important when they want them as players to win laurels

codemaniacs:
there are thousands of black coaches coaching in African countries so yes coaching is easy for black men in West Africa, East Africa and Southern Africa I don't know about Northern Africa...

getting jobs that has nothing to do with medicine or tech or care jobs in Europe or U:S would be difficult because they have to consider their people first..

that's subjective as many blacks now carry European or other Western nations' passports or were even born there so you referring to considering their people first surely has a different meaning

codemaniacs:


E:urope have to put their people first, it is not marginalization for them to put their people first..

African coaches and players should come back home and open football clubs and academies... the African coaches are not as rich as the players so the coaches should not be the ones with the responsibility of building academies..

let African coaches and players and wealthy Africans work together and build academies and football clubs and use their knowledge to create jobs in the sports industry in African countries.

Agreed, but let no one continue to fool us with the meritocracy bullshit

TheGoodJoe:
Totally agree with you. That is why Kompany getting relegated really stung me. Glad he got another chance to redeem himself.

There are many factors and one stint is not enough for a coach. Look at Graham Potter at Chelsea. Despite his remarkable history in the past, he still had a poor stint at Chelsea. Look at Ten Hag at Ajax, and his time at Manchester United.

So a poor run can't define a coach. If Kolo Toure with his achievement was a white European, he would be on a higher level. Look at the likes of Lampard, Gerard, Rooney. Fabregas, Xabi Alonso, they have high grade jobs and a bad stint won't mar their images.

Very true!
