Ibime is part of the fake ijaw
The Eastern Ijaw (Rivers State) tribes of Okrika, Kalabari, Bonny and Opobo are highly descended from Igbo slaves and merchants. Opobo itself is highly Igbolised by blood since Jaja (himself an Igbo slave) plied the Imo river and brought many Igbo from the hinterland to work for him, to the point I can say Opobo blood is 85% Igbo.

Bonny is about 70% Igbo and Kalabari and Okrika about 30-50% Igbo. Nembe and Brass in Bayelsa about 10-20%. That's why Nembe King historically had to deny Igbo ancestry which his detractors put upon him

Okrika and Opobo Kings are mostly from Igbo bloodline as is Kalabari. Bonny resisted a bit to keep their Perekule (Pepple) bloodline as Kings but their Kings' mothers and grandmother's likely Igbo by blood.

I am also from the last Royal family of Okrika with Igbo bloodline through my Great great grandfather who came down from Igbo land to work for an Okrika man (who himself was originally Igbo)

In Okrika we have had Kingship tussles for 2 centuries between the Tubonijus (merchants often descended from Igbos who are the ruling class) and Konijus (traditional fishing occupation mostly descended from Ijaws). You can Google it. Ateke was the Koniju man that ran us out of town and finally broke the hold of Igboid descendants on the Kingship.

But no too reason am, Ijaw City states are like Rome. Any Igbo man that comes there almost immediately blends into Ijaw. That's because our slavery wasn't chatel slavery. A slave becomes a member of the household with full rights of a son as long as he is productive. That's how Jaja rose from slavery to head of his house and there are many Amanyanabos, Alabos and Waridabos with similar story not just Jaja.

Some years ago, I stumbled across an interview with a slave from Umahia owned by my great great grandfather being interviewed by a Colonial journalist. In general I would say 70% of Igbos came as Slaves, but there were also some big Palm oil merchants based in Igbo land that moved to Ijaw land to partner more closer with their Ijaw partners. They also brought their families and would return to the hinterland to pick slaves. So slowly these Ijaw City states blood became filled by Igbos to the point Bonny and Opobo lost their original Ibani language and now fully speak Igbo, but not Kalabari and Okrika who maintain their mother tongue.

But don't get it twisted, the culture is fully Ijaw, same Gods, same masquerades, nothing like New Yam festival, Nzobu Nzobu or red cap.

Have never seen anyone get the better of Nuno Mendes so Salah is in great company

João Neves was the star of the show. Vitinha finally has a partner.

They should free these Portuguese boys of the influence of Bruno, Felix and Ronaldo. A 3 man Portugal midfield of Palhinha, Neves and Vitinha will dominate anyone.

Raphinha and Dembele ain't winning no Ballon dor, unless they do something exceptional in the final. You don't just arrive at Ballon Dor in one season, you must have built familiarity and some loyalty with the voters in previous years.

Mbappe in the lead and Harry Kane second favourite depending on the UCL outcome

Niggas never voted for Raphinha and Dembele in past years but they have thumbprint Mbappe and Kane before and those niggas are overdue after many years of competing at that level.

I mean that back then, he used to score and do assists but he wasn't passing the eye test in terms of ball retention and dribbling. I'm not saying he was bad. I know Ralph at Leeds and Chelsea also wanted him.

There's a reason some of your fans called him fake Brazilian who couldn't dribble a cone. Now he's scoring, assisting and he's even doing some nice flicks and dribbles. He's enjoying his football again. Flick is the reason.
He always created separation from his man to deliver his cross or shot at Leeds so I don't know why you would say he couldn't dribble, he did the needful. He is a wing version of Debruyne, you can't buy his accuracy in the market

They dont need to be MAGA to get tired of war. At the 3yrs mark and the war at like a stalemate with no side gaining significantly only killing more people

How many more years of it can most EU countries take
Those Russia neighbours, Poland, and Baltic and Scandinavian States are peppering even more. In Europe, if it pain somebody wella, Germany and France don't just bully them to accept. Germany can give up their wellbeing for any small country, that's what they've been doing for those Soviet countries for 25 years to bring them up to standard. The money Germany pays into the union yearly is in the tens of billions to help out those people Soviet Union impoverished

Gains are slow that is why we have just 20%, Drones are targeting human and other infrastructure, the fight has been largely on "Ukraine soil" and what do you think another 3yrs of this type of attrition war will bring

The best case is for both of them to calm down, not achieve their pre war goals, Ukraine cannot go to pre 2014 borders and Russia cannot take the whole of Ukraine too

Russia has shown he can pull troops from friendly nations that have human being to throw away in wars, Ukraine does not have that luxury, Western Europe and US are not willing to put troops on ground. They are all easy going and fun loving people they are not for warfare.
If this war drags on. It might just tilt in Russian direction and the war weariness will get in

February 2021, 3yrs ago I was seeing many Ukrainian flags all over, every city every big tower you see Ukrainian flags and almost unanimous support, Now many people think of their immediate problems and dont send Ukraine, Soon people in Western Europe will start going that way when they have to send money, ammunition and men to Ukraine. By the tme they show British kids dying in war, Your MPs will hear am

All Americans of all sides of the political divide have reduced their support for a long drawn out war and prefer a quick end to the war. Even if it means losing territories to Russia. I wonder how much longer Western Europe have to hold out
Trust me, we don't have a maga party anti Ukraine here to sway things. Public opinion may seek a compromise, everyone gets tired of war eventually but the ones in support of Russia are very tiny minority, usually immigrants

Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by Ibime(m):
Nigga demented and arguing with himself in his own head

You would think Valerie Zaluzhny is pro-Russian and not even as anti-Russian as Zelensky or even worse, and led the fightback against Russia

A sane mind would have seen that that invalidates his central argument that Ukrainian leadership is a plant and not the will of the people

It doesn't matter to democracies who is leader as long as their wishes are respected. Whether Zelensky, Klitschko, Zaluzhny or someone else, they all speak with the same voice on the matter. Nigga would think he's discovered gold while deluding himself. Zaluzhny is loved by the Ukrainian people, including most of the same people who love Zelensky. They are soldiers of the same struggle.

A neo-communist lover of authoritarianism and idol worshipper with no political grounding can never understand that, that's why they have seething hatred of opponents of their idol even within his own party. That's why they think we care about Biden, Boris Johnson, Rishi Sunak or whoever as they do to their God. Centrists are not idol worshippers, they only care about systems and shared values. Soldier come, soldier go, barracks remain.

China is already aligning with Russia on this war. Russia was even able to pull some men from North Korea to join their frontier. How many Western European nations that are used to soft life want to go on battle fronts? Some EU cities are already protesting that they are not going to join Ukraine war

Ukraine is now forcing young men to join in wars, a problem which Russian aligned nations dont have. China, NKorea, Iran Russia their men dont have that choice to opt out unlike Western Europeans

With the current momentum, Russia will capture more. In the past 3yrs with NATO and US full support, Ukraine has lost 20% of its territories, Now imagine with less

Dont worry when they start asking for enlistment from UK, thats when you and Buda will remember that Tinubu is your president and your anthem is "Nigeria we hail thee"
On the contrary, Russia already captured most of Ukraine to the gates of Kiev within the first 2 weeks with surprise attack. They simply withdrew to what they hold now and have not made great progress percentage wise for the last 3 years. Ukraine has made more km2 progress after the first month of the war than Russia has. Also Russia already held 10% before the war either themselves or via rebels

This is a drone war. Na drone dey kill man, and progress is slow. No be Panza dash across open fields. Russian soldiers at present are moving with horses in some instance. Don't think Russia is winning bigly because that's what Maga world wants you to think. Gains are excruciatingly slow. You fit use one month capture one small village. This is man against drone.

Ukraine can only collapse if US withdraw intelligence, Starlink and air-defence of its vital industries. Ukraine is already the foremost country in the Western world in small drone production.

2008 crash saw feds drop rate to 0-0.25%. It can happen again easily with market crash. I saw 2% rate in 2011.

It can and will happen again, infact the wealthy class have come to rely on it. It's the only reason why we have people like Musk and Zuckerberg today who are products of zero interest rate environment. These are guys wey suppose worth $20-30 bln if not for QE and cheap credit. Who want hammer now need low interest rate and Trump, (especially Eric Trump wey dey run the parole) want hammer.

In this war, Both sides will have to take some Ls and find way to leave with their dignity still intact

The was has been going on for 3yrs, 1m people dead with NATO and US throwing a lot of resources into it

Do you want to do another 3yrs and lose another 1m plus men?

Both sides need a soft landing where they can go home and claim some moral victory

Russia being a nuclear power will not be defeated militarily without it resorting to his nuclear option which is essentially WW3
It's not about defeat. Russia is also exhausted of manpower, logistics and have been under strict Capital controls for too long with crazy interest rates.

At this point a wise leader will play the game so Russia takes Crimea, and even Donetsk and Luhansk but give back their part of Zaporizhia and Kherson while holding back their $300bln for Ukraine reparations. They will also bring in China to apply pressure from the other side.

Putin can sell that to his people since his stated aim was taking Donetsk, Luhansk and "denazification" which means regime change. He can spin denazification however he likes and come out with his head held high.

What Trump is doing is setting them up to take all 4 regions by weakening Ukraine, not pay any reparations and resume normal trading relationships with the West. That is unconscionable to Europeans and the message has been that they will not resume normal relationship with Russia under those circumstances, nor will they return the seized money. So it is up to Trump now as to whether he is willing to sanction European countries for holding Russian money, let's see how much he loves Russia. This matter done serious pass wetin you imagine.

I am not seeing any profit at 7%, even my 5.9% are just barely breaking even without considering repairs and maintenance but I have some 3-4% which are keeping me afloat. Plus some airbnb which is yielding beyond the normal rentals

The 7% I am running them at a loss the goal was always to get them at a low sales price high interest and then refi later to a lower interest rate

Wait you mean we might see 2--3% interest rate OR we might see 2-3% shave on current rate?
We might see 2-3% mortgage rates and 0-1% Fed rate

Trump is well known for ignoring Fed advice on overheating economy and insisting on 0% interest rate. He is pushing Powell for it, but Powell is resisting for now until water pass garri. He has done the same to Powell in 2018 before, forcing him into low interest rates when Powell was trying to apply the brakes.
