CaseSensitive: N57 Engine. It's a straight inline 6 litre engine with single dual scroll turbo. Came stock with 258 horsepower and 560 newton meters of torque. 8 Speed ZF gearbox. It will do 0-62 in 5.6 seconds. I’d normally use a car for a while and sell it off but this one - I’m driving it till it breaks apart. Enjoyable and fun to drive and most importantly, reliable.
Zouzer: Neither of them were generally strong candidates. Hilary was even much of a tougher cookie than Kamala, who was a lightweight. I bet even Trump acknowledges Hilary was a much more credible opponent than Kamala. Kamala was running against Donald freaking TRUMP. At that point (ie 2024), the dude was already immune to the constant regular streams of attacks that had been thrown him since 2015 when he came into the political arena. Most people were willing to hold their nose and vote for Trump because Kamala wasn't presenting herself to be a significantly better alternative. For instance, the way she speaks in word salads was a constant point of attack against her. Ironically, Trump also has that weird rambling trait, where he just goes off topic and spew so many horseshit. Hardly would you find any of Trump's rallies where he gives strictly policy speeches. But guess what? Most people didn't apply the same intensity in their criticism because they've been seeing that 'brand' for over a decade. They were not surprised. It was fatal misfiring for Democrats to center their attacks on the same set of scaremongering, rage baiting talking points, in addition to the fact that their nominee was just meh. You don't run a nominee of that quality against a Donald Trump
Your analysis is spot on! Dems ran terrible female candidates against trump hoping to win the title of "first female president" but Americans rejected both.
Their persecution of Trump actually won him sympathy and support. It's the most incredible political comeback I've witnessed in my lifetime.
Both sides of the isle have their issues but Dems took it too far with their soft on crime policy, open borders, LGTV(🤣), critical race Theory, affirmative action, slave trade reparation, lawfar against political opponents and a host of other nonsensical policies...
SpencerForbes: 😂😂😂65 years don enjoy na. Some live poor and die below that 65. If I leave a legacy and enjoy life, I’m good to go. I don’t just want to be a burden to anyone. If I reach 80 years and I’m no longer in good health (we can’t determine the future) instead of waiting for kids to transfer me from one hospital to another, we go in peace😂
Until you get to 64 and reality sets in then you will start sweating inside snow🤣🤣
brain54: Sounds like an emotional or blackmailing comment to me...
Just because Kamala lossed the last election to trump doesn't mean America isn't ready for a female president.
Kamala Harris wasn't the right candidate at the time and it wasn't just what the US wanted at the time. America needed a strong candidate and what the Democrats were offering was different especially with Biden who seemed to be inefficient with the direction of his policies.
Besides that the time frame for Kamala to prepare and put up an effective campaign strategy was short. She was almost unprepared after the baton fell on her laps due to Biden dropping off the race.
Hillary Clinton had a good run and came very close. She almost had it.
I think if the right female candidate comes along America can vote for her and it's not simply a matter of gender bias as Mrs Obama has put it.
If America can vote a black man I don't think having a female president is that impossible!
She's being realistic and there is nothing wrong with that. Trump defeated the first and second woman to ever run for president.
US is not ready for a female president whether white or black based on the last two elections.
It is important to be optimistic but it is even more important to recognize your limits
Sultty: this thing people are laughing and making skits with might one day bit them in their butts.. Minister wike has more right to check the buildings papers and where the problem "arise" is when yerima superiors didn't tell him to stand down and corporate with wike. He's the Minister of fct for crying out loud and not even a lower level governor
Wike Bleep up bro. Make we leave matter for matayas
ALTERNATEID: When it comes to deploying soldiers for internal security, the approval of Mr. President is required. Military only deploy soldiers to protect senior military personnel and Military formations. They don’t deploy soldiers to protect a building site on a disputed land.
Those soldiers you see in residential houses are strictly posted to protect a senior military personnel. They are to protect the life of the senior officer and not to be used to fight over construction sites.
There are soldiers protecting properties of important government officials in every major city in Nigeria. If you don't know this then you prfob live in Nigeria. Even politicians travelling to the north have military details on their convoy....I'm talking about senators and reps member who ordinarily should use the police.
Why are we suddenly acting surprised because a few soldiers were sent to guard a generals property?
Sorry but the ideal situation is different from what is on ground
ALTERNATEID: lol. So Mr. President approved the deployment of soldiers to protect a disputed land? Do you guys even think at all before saying some of these weird stuff? You think deployment of soldiers is a joke, right?
The military does not need C-in-C approval to deploy a small group of soldiers to protect a property.
Private properties of politicians all over abuja are protected by small groups of soldiers .....don't tell me you don't know this.
So why is this one different because wike is involved? If the military can send their men to protects politician's property. Why do you think that a general cannot send his boys to protect his own property?
Reloadedisraelp: So u don't know this... Some of una just waste school fee throway... who'll protect the citizens from internal attack?is it bandit or Boko Haram? ...ewu
Resorting to insult instead of answering a simple question is a sign of low IQ.
Soldiers were deployed during 2023 election in Lagos. Was there bandits or bokoharam attack in Lagos?
Let's hope you can answer this one instead of throwing emotional tantrum on the internet
ALTERNATEID: The part in bold is the point a lot of Nigerians are missing. On what basis should our military be deployed to protect a construction site with a directive to shoot government officials who are on routine monitoring exercise? Are we in a war situation with another country over the property? Is that what we’ve reduced our armed personnel to? Instead of deploying soldiers to fight terrorism and protect the territorial integrity of Nigeria, we now deploy them with the directive to shoot government officials over an illegally acquired land. What a shame.
Like I’ve said before, all the soldiers involved in that illegal operation and show of shame including the person that deployed them to that site should have been arrested by the police and charged to court. I condone impunity far too much in this country and that’s why people get away with a lot of rubbish.
I will ask you just one question
On what basis are soldiers deployed to pooling stations during elections? Do soldiers have a constitutional role in Nigeria's electoral process?
When abuse of power using is normalized by the political class over the years, politicians lose the moral right to call out the military in situations like this.
This same wike used military men to intimidate voters while was rigging his state election. So how will they respect him? Add that to his brash condescending attitude and you have a perfect combination of reasons why the young soldier stood his ground

After spending more than 13 hours onboard a grounded aircraft at Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport, 160 Palestinian refugees have finally been allowed to disembark and enter South Africa on Thursday evening.
Global Airways, the Johannesburg-based charter operator that flew the group from Nairobi to Johannesburg, confirmed in an updated statement that “all of the passengers have been allowed off the plane and allowed to enter South Africa," adding that they are in the process of clearing immigration.
Earlier in the day, the airline had said the passengers were declared inadmissible on arrival, despite the fact that their travel documents and passenger list had been submitted to South African authorities 24 hours before departure, in line with immigration protocol.
The passengers — all Palestinian nationals who left Gaza on November 12 — travelled from Israel to Kenya, arriving in Nairobi around 2am on 13 November, before connecting to Johannesburg on the Global Airways charter.
They were never assured of their final destination, and were only allowed off the plane at O.R. Tambo after hours of negotiations involving multiple government departments and humanitarian organisations.
Humanitarian organisation Gift of the Givers confirmed it was on-site to provide food, medical care, and accommodation to the exhausted passengers.
“These people endured 13 hours onboard in inhumane conditions after fleeing a war zone,” said Gift of the Givers. “Many of them wish to apply for asylum in South Africa, while others plan to continue to other destinations.”
Gift of the Givers founder Dr Imtiaz Sooliman earlier thanked DIRCO Director-General Zane Dangor and International Relations Minister Ronald Lamola for stepping in to facilitate the refugees’ entry, commending their actions as “in keeping with South Africa’s humanitarian and pro-Palestinian stance.”
Sooliman explained that the crisis arose because Israeli authorities refused to stamp the refugees’ passports on exit, leaving them effectively stateless when they arrived in South Africa.
“Israel deliberately did not stamp the passports of these poor people to exacerbate their suffering,” he said. “We thank the South African government for intervening and receiving them with compassion.”
Gift of the Givers teams are coordinating emergency relief efforts for the refugees as they begin processing their asylum applications.
Samantha I hope your country will not regret this move.... These people will not assimilate your culture and will soon start demanding Sharia law. My country is still dealing with the scourge of Fulani militia in the north who want to islmize Nigeria through violence.
It is well with Africa. I'm just pained because our leaders don't consider the interest and future of it's people to know what to fight for or against
Nyanabo: We like to celebrate indiscipline in this our Country Nigeria. There's nothing special about what the Officer did that's commendable. If you claim you have the proper documentation to the land why not let them seal it and take the FCTA to court to proove your case ?
No body likes wike doesn't mean he's a bad person on all sides.
The burden of proof is on the accuser bro. The general has presented his documents. If the minister believes that the document is not genuine then he should go to court....or is that not APC people's favourite quote?
E reach oga turn to go to court now he is trying to intimidate young soldier. Nigerians are fair minded and that is why most people are showing respect for the way the soldier comport himself in the face of intimidation
buygala: Some questions that I ponder on in view of this military/civilian conflict are:
1.........Did anyone compel these soldiers to join the military?...Why the excessive anger and disgust towards civilians?
2......Are they working for free so that Nigerians owe them so much?...They get paid while their bosses have almost equal access as top politicians to the Nation's treasury ....So what exactly is the reason for the sense of entitlement and feeling that they are above the law of the land?
3.......If they demand these extreme respect because they die defending the country, what then should accrue to the thousands who have died due to the failure of the country's security architecture?....We should worship those ones as gods and prophets then?...Isn't everyone at risk of dying in this country as it is presently anyway?...
4....While these soldiers have security in numbers and availability of ammunition to fight insurgents, ordinary Nigerians have mostly only their guts and instincts to protect them from the same criminals ....in fact some people in remote areas, long distance drivers and travellers are at risk of facing these criminals without any armed colleagues or ammo to back them up...Are these people also to demand exception from the laws of the land because they are brave enough to face criminals even unarmed?
Lastly, this "a General is always a General" talk, what law backs it up?...If it is true, what law is a retired General subject to then?...Civil law or martial law?...if he is subject to martial law, how then can be labelled "Retired" and not sent to war like his mates?....If he is subject to only civil law after retirement, how then is he still a General?...and if he is retired and still a General, what and which soldiers is he commanding, and to where exactly is he doing so?
What exactly is going on in this Country ?
Chief all this grammar will not change the fact that the minister himself is lawless. Why is he revoking allocated lands and giving to his cronies. The minister is not in the good books of Nigerians because of his arrogant demeanor. This man did suspended the law when he help to rig the last election and then orchestrate confusion in rivers HOA and then influence suspension of a sitting governor. He will insult TV presenters and talk without decorum. Is he the only minister in Nigeria?
Nigerians are happy because he finally met his match and it's a young man who refused to be intimidated
autoez: In that case, we can eliminate the need for lawyers in our country. Soldiers will take on the responsibility of resolving civil disputes, and this change will work effectively.
Yes! Perfect solution
You cannot spend the last 10 years cheering a lawless government that has no respect for it's own laws and due process then suddenly wake up because your favourite actor could not bully his way through this time.
These people openly rigged elections, suspended a sitting governor and bragged about it but APC supporters clapped for them. I find it funny that people who supported these actions suddenly realised that Nigeria has laws now .
How can a whole minister go physically to enforce land seizure and then bring himself so low to insulting a genz? He has no respect for himself, talks anyhow without decorum and you expect others to respect him?
Compare this video to how Fashola handled military men that passed the BRT lane when Fash was governor.
In APC supporters voice ....Let the minister go to court
So how is bringing the military to beat up people that come near the land is the answer
It's a two way street. Tell wike to go to court too
Go to court would have been the solution but you and I know how it will end under this APC government. So yes if I have the influence and connection to stop a rogue government official from infringing on my right I will absolutely use it
autoez: It's important to recognize that the young soldier needs to focus on his primary responsibility: engaging in combat rather than getting caught up in civil disputes. Soldiers are trained to fight wars, and that should be their priority.
You are describing a normal country where there is respect for rule of law. Wike and his APC people have clearly demonstrated that might is right in Nigeria.
If you are the formal chief of naval staff who has a land with proper document that the building is about to be demolished tell me that you will fold your hands and allow your building to be demolished.
This is what happens to normal civilians everyday. If you complain they will tell you to go to court where their paid judges are waiting to pervert justice. Wike suddenly remembered that Nigeria has laws and constitution. Smh
stuffs2002: The land issue being discussed is 100% civil and the military have no business being there in the first case but your hatred for Wike has completely blinded you to logic
So you know how many land with proper documents that has been revoked because the owners are not powerful and influential? Your thin god finally jam his match and you're here crying r
being: As much as people may not like Wike, it is very irresponsible to be talking to a minister like that. Hw can a ministry or an agency of govt be on enforcement and then u say u follow orders.. however, where wike is to be blamed is his slowness to call d CNS Or CDS to order his boys out. Altogether. It is an embarrassment to the country that a security agency would prevent the work of a representative of govt. This is not much about wike but the chaos of the system. Indeed the c-in-c should actually issue a query to the CNS(since the officer was actually following orders) for allowing his institution to be involved in such lawlessness
Did you watch the video at all?
If you insist that the soldier insulted wike please write the exact insult here let's read....because from what I watched, wike was the one insulting the boy
autoez: What kind of military officers are we producing in this country? You can’t even protect yourselves from bandits, how can you protect the entire nation? Yet, a baby soldier has the audacity to confront a minister who’s simply doing his job.
Which minister are you talking about? In a sane country should that character be a federal minister? You all clapped for him when he supervised rigging in his state just because of appointment. How can a minister bring himself so low to insult a military young man ? What is the problem with collecting people's land all over the plan and reallocating them to his own cronies?
The young soldier was professional and did not insult him back. All of you are just painted that your favourite bully finally met someone that he could not bully. If you want respect you must show yourself and conduct yourself in a respectful manner
SixSeven: Nigeria has been living in denial and the politicians have run out of options. They have played all the cards they can but no human lives is worth their division. Even when I hear this current debate, I shiver when people are not bothered by non-Christians dying and they call it collateral damage. I have seen so far that African indigenous religion still remain very tolerant as they don't force anyone but adherents of Islam and Christianity in African want to force everyone to their side and don't remember the humanity in them.
They keep dividing us. They say you are Christian, that one is Muslim. You go to the north, they say you are not authentic Muslim, you go to the South, they say your Christianity is prosperity Christianity. One say you are Shia, another say you are Sunni. One say you are Tijanniyah, another say they are Aluh Sunnah. One say you are pentecostal, another say they are catholic. One say they are 7th day Adventist, anothet say you are 1st Night Celestial.
One say you are not Nigerian enough, then you travel out and another recognizes you as African. Then the African American says you're not from us, you are not us. You just have our blood. Another one say you are indigenous. They say you are Yoruba, they say your Yoruba is Akan, it is Ẹ̀gbá, it is this and that. You go to the South East, they say you are from a caste..... Do you see that discrimination never stops? You will never be able to satisfy human beings because they will keep dividing us no matter what. Think about it. Us vs them. Humanity dies.
Despite all the division every sane human being should recognise the sanctity of human life - no matter your creed or religion
The day we start rationalizing the killing of another human being is the day we lose our humanity. The north has been notorious for this.
Imagine dousing a human being with petrol and setting her ablaze while streaming it to the world and the perpetrators are known but they walk free today? These same set of people are harbouring terrorists on their states and defending their actions because of religious and tribe.
For how long will this continue. Trump should come and do the job since our government and military has decided to pamper the terrorist and look away
Berankis: I didn't want to watch the video because I don't fancy watching people cry. But what I noticed is that she has placed her UK dream above her marriage. All her cries is not about separation or leaving her husband but about her imminent eviction from the UK. I also seem to have heard the sound of a child in the video, so I think they have kids together. If it's not infidelity, I don't support men throwing their wives out even though I know women can be brutal sometimes, but for the sake of the family's togetherness (the children), men should be more patient. The mentality of a woman is never the same as with a man. I hope she gets the help she wants, Nigeria is currently not the best place to seek refuge right now. Everywhere is currently tensed up here now, not the best place to relocate to right now.
The children will be alright but the man will be miserable for life if he doesn't take that right decision now.
This kins of woman will be cruel to the husband and still turn the children against him...same children you are asking the man to sacrifice his happiness for. I have seen this happen to older men. Prioritise your sanity and peace of mind. The children will be fine
MrColdsweat: After picking holes in the statistics for genocide, you turn around and advice your citizens
This is the comment I came to read! Your head dey there...
UK government and BBC denied genocide yet they are warning their own citizens not to travel to the very parts of the country where genocide is happening. Who is recieving who now?
I just pity poverty stricken APC supporters who are shouting sovereign nation upandan. E go soon reach their backyard
meobizy: How did their operations in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan go? What did they achieve?
And what has your own military operations achieved despite the billions spend buying weapons? Some of you sit in the comfort of your houses and amplify APC propaganda talking points out of sheer ignorance.
If your relatives are among entire villages and towns wiped out by these murderous jihadists would you be typing this comment on nairaland or demanding that the terrorists be wiped out?
HacheNoire: Slaves are prone to follow the definitions of their masters without reasoning or questioning.
I don’t even think Wale knows the definition of “Genocide”
You that know the meaning can you enlighten us? Christian villages in Kaduna, plateau, Benue and Taraba are being systematically wipes out and you are here typing rubbish.
