Did you ask the Yorubas who attacked all northerners and they told you they thought all Northerners are Fulani? How did the Yorubas in Ibarapa know the difference between Fulani herdsmen and other Hausas?
It is simply a bloodlust that has nothing to do with geopolitical knowledge.
Hamas simply killed indiscriminately on Oct 7. They were not specific or deliberate in their targets
Hamas does not like Blacks. They suspect they are Ethiopian Jews. It's been documented.

Stop covertly defending terrorists
So you mean Hamas is not aware of the existence of countries like South Africa, Nigeria and even Egypt on the African continent but they believe all blacks are Jews?
Haba!! This is the most senseless excuse I've heard in defence of terrorists!
I am in no way defending. I am simply saying why they did it.

The people who did the killing behave like illiterates.

You're Nigerian and you're talking like this?.

If a herdsman is accused of killing someone in Yoruba land and Yorubas start attacking Northerners, will they attack Fulanis alone, or they'd attack all core Northerners such as Hausa and Kanuris as well ? Wetin concern Hausa or kanuri inside this wahala? It's the same in the North.

These people nor dey reason Africans

I feel sorry for those Nigerians supporting them

Hamas are evil people
They think all black people are Ethiopian Jews. Ethiopian Jews have Israeli citizenship and are also drafted into the IDF for 3 years.

That's the root of the matter.

There was an Ethiopian Jew who fought heroically on October 7, 2023. I got these details from Google specially for you:

An Ethiopian-born Israeli IDF officer named Avichail Reuven (also spelled Avichayil Reuven) has been widely recognized as a hero for his actions in fighting off Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023.

On the morning of the attack, Reuven, who was at home after a period of active service, heard the news of the Hamas incursion. He quickly put on his uniform, grabbed his rifle, and, lacking a vehicle, ran eight miles (nearly 13 km) to the front lines near the Gaza border. Once there, he joined the fight against the terrorists, engaged them, killed many, and saved numerous lives.

His bravery has been publicly honored at high levels. He completed his officer training with distinction after the attack and accompanied Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the U.S. Congress, where Netanyahu shared his story, earning Reuven a standing ovation. Reuven is the second of nine children born to Israeli immigrants from Ethiopia.

Hamas believes these Africans are Ethiopian Jews, hence their slaughter.

Politics › Re: This Is The China That Loves Nigeria More Than Jesus Christ - Photos by grandstar(m): 1:10pm On Nov 06, 2025
DomPerignon:
China just unveiled the first Thorium salt powered container vessel which is on record to be the largest ship ever built with a capacity to carry over 14,000 containers.

China has unveiled the world's first container ship powered by a thorium molten salt reactor (TMSR).

This is a breakthrough in the cargo vessel market.

The power system used in the container ship matches the S6W reactors employed in the U.S. Navy's submarines, but it holds significant advantages over them:

- operates at low pressure - which reduces the risk of core meltdown

- utilizes thorium – a safer and more widely available alternative to uranium

- produces a minimal amount of waste and cannot be used for weapons production

This signifies a breakthrough in nuclear marine propulsion, giving China an edge in zero-emission deep-sea shipping as well as reactor technology.

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3331031/china-unveils-power-thorium-reactor-worlds-largest-cargo-ship

American shipbuilding is a pathetic shadow of its former self, dwarfed by Chinas industrial juggernaut. Chinas yards boast over 23 million tons in annual capacity: 232 times the US measly 100k tons, and it captures 70% of global orders while the US clings to 0.1%. One Chinese shipbuilder alone outproduced all US yards since WWII in 2024. Militarily, Chinas navy swells to 395 ships by 2025, the US Navy stagnates at 294 by 2030, funding just 5-6 new vessels yearly amid chronic delays and half-capacity yards.

The only rational hope for the USA are "covid vaccines" that Amerimutts used to poison themselves, entire Europe and their allies in Asia. They naively hope that overmortality of consumers/buyers of Chinese products could derail Chinese economy.

Why in God's name should we have any business with the heathen capitalist Jewish swindlers of the west ?
You're matching the US with the Chinese economy? It is a joke taken too far. America isn't just the largest economy in the world due to its size but also based on per capita income. At $80,000, it one of the ten highest in the world.

China is the second largest economy in the world. This is largely because of its population size which is 1.4bn. Its' per capita income is $13,000, which isn't even 20% of the US. This does not ignore the fast economic growth from 1978-2018 which helped transform the economy from being desperately poor to the farmore prosperous one it has today.

If the US does not produce ships, it isn't because they can't. It is because it won't be profitable. The ships would be too expensive.

Ship buidling has been commoditized by the Asians, especially the Chinese. The US lacks the competitive or comparative advantage to produce ships. Saying a country that manufactures the most advanced commercial planes, fighetr jets, submarines and warships is a failure because it can't manufacture commercial vessels is like someone saying Jesus walked on water because he could not swim.

The Chinese economy today suffers from the Middle Income Trap. Its economy is no longer poor, but it isn'tt rich. It is now in the middle, and worse, it is stuck there. Other countries that are suffering the same malaise are Brazil, Argentina, Turkey and Russia.

China is in that spot because its real estate market boom has bust, and this has wiped the wealth of many Chinese. They have refused to spend, and this has adversely affected the economy.

China needs to move from export led growth alone but also growth fuelled by consumer spending and investment. In The US, consumer spending account for 70% of GDP while the in the OECD is 57%. In China, it is a dismal 39%.

The truth is that China needs to move from a dictatorship to democratic rule. Many countries countries at this stage move from autocracy to democracy. China will not be different.

This Chinese people are Satan in human form. They are extremely wicked and don't go where they won't benefit from.

They never liked Nigeria or her Christians. They are highly racists and so quick to cut down black man to sizes at any given opportunity.

They are against Donald Trump because he will be an obstacle to there daily looting of our nations resources which they've been stealing for many years now through the help of boko haram and bandits .

Nigeria don't need China support because they don't mean well for our country.
Stop being a drama queen.

It is like saying Nigerians in India hate Indians because they sell hard drugs. They sell drugs either because they have no other means to survive or they are just greedy.

To access these minerals, these chinese have to pay off the bandits. That's why they give them money. I am also certain Nigerian miners also do the same.

That is why the government is cracking down on illegal mining in Zamfara for instance. It will starve the bandits of money.

He can't match Tinubu if the president was at 40% capacity.

His successful removal of the fuel subsidy after 5 decades of trying by various governments speaks volume.

I decry the sleaze, corruption, excess borrowing, and nepotism presently happening now.

Despite all these, he and Peter Obi would have achieved little.

AMINDA:
Go watch Emefiele's old videos. Buharinomics was centered around Dangote's refinery coming on stream before the phased removal of subsidy. It was the garrulous Tinubu who came and abruptly removed subsidy prematurely, skyrocketing inflation and exchange rate simultaneously. Make no mistakes, it is the coming onboard of Dangote that has given this government a little respite. We could have attained even more without the attendant pain and disruption we are currently facing.
If this is true, Emefiele is a disgrace to economics if there was ever one. That was totally unnecessary. Simply following the fx policies he inherited from Jonathan was sufficient.

Buhari was a populist and focused on people friendly policies, even if it meant bankrupting the economy in the process. He didn't want Nigerians to "suffer."

So, he refused to abolish the subsidy, and preferred to borrow to finance it. He refuses to streamline the civil service despite inheriting a thin purse.

He also refused to allow a market determined exchange despite brazen economic ruin it was causing.

Tinubu made the right call. Didn't Jonathan want to remove subsidy? Did Okonjo-Iweala and Lamido Sanusi not support it?

You can not remove subsidy in phases due to inflation, persistent currency depreciation, and the ever changing price of crude oil.
Politics › Re: World Bank To Consider Nigeria’s Fresh $1Billion Loan Request by grandstar(m): 7:44am On Nov 06, 2025
AMINDA:
Loans with no tangible results or verifiable projects. Tinubu thought his embrace of neo-liberal policies of the Worldbank and IMF would make him the darling of the West but that has proven not to be the case under Donald Trump. He's now under immense pressure. At least, Nigerians saw the tangible projects that Chinese loans under Buhari provided. Roads, rails, bridges, airports and seaports. Nothing to show under Tinubu.
Obi would have no choice pursuing policies, or would he continue with Buharinomics ?

Obi said he would end petrol subsidies and merge the Naira. These two policies account for most of the country's present pain.

For an economy like Nigeria's, it would take some time before fast growth resumes, most likely in the 5th year.

It could be speeded if company tax should be reduced to 15%.

it’s too early to evaluate the impact.

Infact most foreign investors who were not privy to insecurity issues have been desperate in the past few days to liquidate and repatriate their investments.

Trump and US pronouncements have done a huge blow to the Nigerian Eurobond and money market.

Don’t doubt me, watch out for the capital flight in the next 30 days. Investors don’t do well with instability much more such that is backed by the US

As usual, Tinubu data boys will run propaganda riot on this topic as they have been instructed to do so but truth is that both local and foreign investors have in panic mood for the past 1 week
There has been no massive exit out of Nigeria. In addition, Tinubu said he'll work with the Americans in fighting these terrorists and bandits. The government has failed in eliminating the bandits,.

Do u know it is another way of borrowing internally. They just borrowed for that time duration to loot..What are they doing with all this borrowing should be your concern.
How do they hope to pay.They will next claim the reserve is growing when the shore it up with borrowed money
Only well seasoned investor will subscribe to such offers, and you know that.

You sound aggrieved. The oversubscription is a vote of confidence on the Nigerian economy. That is the real issue here.
