Foreign Affairs › Re: Trump Warns Of 'Serious Consequences' If Elon Musk Funds Democrats by HenryWilliams(m): 12:13pm On Jun 08, 2025
Tenisam:
I said it earlier, most of you are myopic. It's just one policy Trump will pass and Elon business empire will come crashing down. so rest this belief
And how will he pass the law thru their different houses without debate or scrutiny?
You think America is like rubber stamp Nigerian Senate?
You people have been so used and desensitized to how Nigeria operates Democracy you think that's how it's done elsewhere.
Trump can't just bring up anyhow policy to harm Tesla..or SpaceX and you think the Senators and legislation will simply lay back and Aye it?
Bunch of mofos

Elon will be the biggest loser in this series. After God, na government.
If Government has no case against u.. nothing will happen.
This is the United States of America not some shithole country that DSS is used to punish opponents and critics of government, where polices are enacted to victimize the people..
You think Trump can use the CIA or FBI to hound Musk like one vegetable is doing in one West African country?
Where you have strong institutions, tyrants are kept on a tight leash..
Foreign Affairs › Re: Ukraine Cities Completely Destroyed By Russia. why Russia slowed down (pic) by HenryWilliams(m): 1:37pm On Jun 07, 2025
franchasng:
Are you aware that at the start of the unprepared invasion, Ukraine didn't have up to 20 fighter jets and no missile or air defense system at all because they were busy honoring the agreement they signed with Russia during the disintegration of USSR?


Are you also aware that Ukraine use to own nuclear weapon but it was decommissioned and handed to Russia as part of a peace deal supervised by the US after USSR disintegration?


Russia is a weak nation when you compare how many years of military experience and weapon gathering they have compared to Ukraine.


Most of the USSR military weapons were inherited by Russia.


With Russia's abysmal performance in the war with Ukraine, if Russia face Israel, it will be a tough war and if Russia face Germany, the war will most likely end in draw, and if Russia face USA, Russia will be leveled in less than 6 months if both countries are prevented from using nuclear weapon.



Russia is not as powerful as the whole world use to believe in the past before the invasion of Ukraine.


China will defeat Russia before December if they face it off.



Russia cannot have a field day with any other major European country the way it had with Ukraine if nuclear weapon is prohibited
It's obvious you know nothing about Russia and Ukraine and the geopolitics and sociocultural attachment surrounding that area.
Both countries are cut from the same cloth. Both are ethnically the same people.
It's like a little bro fighting big bro.
Little bro will give it all it's got and big bro will just be taking it..once a while inflicting a slap or two.
There's nothing in Ukraine's arsenal that could inflict enormous damage to Russia even borrowed weapons from US/NATO.
Russia doesn't want a destroyed Ukraine, just a country not under the control of the US via NATO near it's border. Hence the light handed attacks towards Ukraine. You think if Putin really wanted to level Ukraine..it won't have done so years ago?
Only a fool dismisses Russia based on current conflict with Ukraine. You think they're like America that goes into obviously lesser powerful countries with full arms and ammunition?
How Russia fights Israel or Germany would be radically different in the way they would against Belarus or Ukraine.
Travel › Re: Why Many Nigerians Still Face Visa Rejections Despite Meeting All Requirements by HenryWilliams(m): 9:44am On Jun 05, 2025
helinues:
Blame the travelling agents too. Sometimes the documents they present for their clients are just pure rubbish.

Imagine being in a full plane travelling to another country and like 20+ Nigerians was deported from the same flight for using either fake visa or fake documents
Yes. Fake documents also play a role .
However quota is what they use for less desirable countries
India and China use more fake documents than we do..yet their rejection rates are lower than ours generally.
Travel › Re: Why Many Nigerians Still Face Visa Rejections Despite Meeting All Requirements by HenryWilliams(m): 8:26am On Jun 05, 2025
They have a daily, weekly visa quota to utilize..once that quota is filed up .the rest is rejection..
It's a win-win for them
They reject half and keep all the money.
I bet if visa fees are refundable..the rejection rate would be lower

So many people here missed the rhetorics of this astute businessman.
Knowing the level of thinking of most Nigerians..he captioned a very catchy slogan for his business..now he has created a niche and the stupid Govt agency gave him more exposure and advert like he intended
It's not everything Govt must chook mouth..
I swear .this man is smart..
He threw a rock..knowing exactly whom it would hit .
Obviously honest and unconnected civil servants can't buy his cars of 200m+. He knows that.. everyone knows that .t
The rock was for the govt to stop pauperizing it's workforce.
Everything is damn expensive.
Inflation off the charts and yet .
NOA..one of the most useless FG agencies ever created opens the mouth and validates his slogan..
There's nothing illegal in his slogan.
He's saying it as it is.
His cars aren't for civil servants. They can't afford them.
There's no law stating he must sell to Civil servants..
Sharp man

Menclothing1:
Lagos is ahead despite below sea level flood in lagos is always flash flooding come and go within hours after rain stop understanding because it’s from sea
Why is state with dry land no Sea always flooding
Niger Kogi Anambra Benue this are gross incompetence
Cos a major river passed thru that side ..
River Niger and this is rainy season up in the Futa jallon highlands where it gets it's source..it passes thru several countries..gathering more overflow til it gets to Nigeria, joins with River Benue and empties in the Niger Delta. it floods its banks especially when we have unseasonally high rain falls
When people build or inhabit natural flood drains .this is the end result.

gidgiddy:
So you people are now even agreeing that Ojukwu tried Banjo? I thought you people said Ojukwu just killed Banjo like that? There was no second tribunal, the evidence against Banjo and others was overwhelming. They were caught on tape putting finishing touches to their plan to arrest Ojukwu, the tape was played in court and their defence crumbled. Banjo was executedalong with three well know Igbo officers, Lt Col Emmanuel Ifeajuna, Major Sam Abamuche and Major Phillip Alale
Ogbeni..
Give it a rest..
There was no recording of any sort presented as evidence for the conviction of Banjo and others..
We all know what a Military Tribunal is all about ..they take their orders from the Military Head which was Ojukwu .he wanted them dead. The first tribunal acquitted them cos they found nothing incriminating in their action..Ojukwu had to convene another tribunal within 24hrs . something frankly unheard of .just to nail these men. He could have killed them discreetly but wanted to show his might and bitterness..
Banjo paid the ultimate price for being loyal to an Igboman..same with Fajuyi.

Sean Connery and George Lazenby were pure mid 60$-early 70s.

gidgiddy:
I don't think you know that are a lot of falsehood in what you said. You said that Ojukwu did not participate directly in the war. As head of the Biafran nation, Ojukwu is not supposed to lead from the front. But actually, Ojukwu did lead some military operations, Google the Oguta battle and Igwuruta battle

You said that Ojukwu was told to appoint a Midwesterner as head of the Midwestern Region but obviously don't know that Doctor Albert Okonkwo was from Ibusa in the Midwest. A Midwest Igbo

You said that Banjo was summoned back to the East and executed by Ojukwu. Did you ever ask why Banjo was executed? Do you even know that Banjo stood trial with 3 others? The reason why Banjo was was executed, and even the transcript of his trial, can be found in a book called 'Crises and conflicts inside Biafra' by Ben Odogwu, a young Biafran intelligence officer who gathered evidence against Banjo

Banjo was secretly recorded by Odogwu at Progress Hotel Enugu along with 3 Biafran officers, Ifeajuna, Abam and Alale, as they conspired to arrest Ojukwu, remove him as Biafran leader and make peace with Gowon. He took the evidence to Ojukwu and all 4 men were arrested and tried by a military tribunal. When the tape was played in court, they had no defence. They were sentenced to death for treason and executed
In that case why did the first Military tribunal acquit them of any wrong doing..but a second hastely convened Tribunal condemned them within 24hrs of their initial acquittal?
Banjo and the rest were set up and murdered by Ojukwu.

OP.
Don't let any idiot advise you to leave your aged parents house cos of nonsense culture.
Your parents house is still your house..
They need you..
Take care of them as they did you decades ago.
This isn't the time to abandon them like one idiat mentioned on top.
Connect with them..
They don't have much time left.
You're lucky o
Both my parents are late and I miss them every single day.
You can hire a cleaner to help them around the house..
If you're comfortable..who says you can't marry and move out but still be close by to them?
Please and please..don't allow stupid negative minded idiats convince you to abandon your mom and dad at this present state

LASG should serve all the home owners in FESTAC quit notice and then embark on massive demolition of the entire area.. the rubbish there now wasn't what FG intended it for..
Most of the buildings in FESTAC now are illegal structures outside the original master plan.

Eko wake up..
FESTAC and adjoining lands belongs to the Federal Government and administed by the Federal Housing Authority.
Lagos State has no stake in FESTAC TOWN.

Crime › Re: Kehinde Alade: Law Enforcement Agencies Should Do Better by HenryWilliams(m): 10:31am On May 21, 2025
Mynd44:
When you commit a crime and you are chased by authorities in an attempt to arrest/stop you from being a further threat to other motorists, the fault from whatever happens is yours not the authorities chasing you.

You don't seem to understand the dangers of driving against traffic until someone close to you is knocked down by one of them. How are you even sure the clown on one way isn't a terrorist, armed robber or drunk driving?

Now the method of attempting to shot down the tires was very wrong as you can miss or risk the car turning over and hitting others so other law enforcement should be engaged to block the road further up front and arrest the culprit.

Perhaps you miss that the driver in a bid to get away rammed 2 or 3 place vehicles, if you were an officer there will you believe the driver to be harmless person trying to get home or someone with criminal intent.

There is a reason police authorities don't always prosecute officers and this is one.
Pardon my language..this is crap you wrote.
Normal standard procedure when faced with such a scenario is to capture the vehicle number plates and also video evidence of the violation..you let the vehicle go. You de-escalate the tension. In saner climes, that's what they do if they see you're too aggressive. They allow you go. It's better to allow you go than risk the death of an innocent person. That just happened in Ibadan. The way our enforcement officials work..it reminds me of jungle.imagine surrounding the vehicle with dozens of enforcement officials, shouting and acting all barbaric all in a bid to arrest and demand hefty bribe..such a driver already facing such prospects would do more harm in his frenzied state..
Lagos State LASTMA/VIO can never do such..
They will capture your vehicle details and fine you appropriately. If you were aggressive on the road,home arrest few days later when tension has been doused. That's how it's done.
We need to start working intelligently not like cavemen. Unfortunately a promising young lad was killed by the NPF cos of anticipated bribe.
