omuo to kabba was the worst, couldn’t do over 60kmh because the were so many bad spots. You’d enjoy Ekiti tho, the roads were so tempting
Thanks this. I was in Ekiti sometimes in Dec last year. We took the igbara odo road, and I enjoyed the ride. If Akure to Ilesha can be dualised. The road will be so tempting.

You do realise that the proliferation of arms into the north was directly due to the destabilisation of Libya by US led nato? Ak47 is cheaper than an iPhone 11 in Libya today.that is how the USA ensures world peace and stability.
And that Libya crisis quadrupled Nigeria security problems till date. Don't know if we will ever be able to have a very safe country again

No, Russia won't dare. The same way US led NATO has no gut to attack Russia, they wouldn't dare too. Both will play hide and seek till Ukraine turns into dusts.

where is the proof? It does not exist.

Simple critical reasoning would save you guys from believing trash. Go and read the history of Poland and other Eastern European states, they are very proud nationalist. You don't expect to annex those set of people and they will take it kindly with you. Never happened and never will. same with Asians.

The US didn't need to do shit, the USSR was doomed to collapse the instance it started annexing those countries.
Russia is not annexing Ukraine. She gave her independence several decades ago.
she is the only country that never had a colony or engaged in the mad neo- colonialist rush for other countries natural resources like the likes of Britain, France or engaged in slave trade like the Americans did.

Russia supported many African countries in their struggles for independence.

And Yes, I know their Histories and that's why its important to read beyond the newspaper or TV broadcasts. Academic research offers better understanding of the foreign policies of these super powers, their aims and objectives in the international system and the enmity that exist amongst the super powers.

Who cares about what u post on nairaland? Just stating a blunt fact of how hypocritical humans can be.. You see many US based Nigerians criticizing the US on social media platform, go try that one for Russia, body go tell you.
Russia is not under dictatorship. Putin is not a dictator. Elections are held in Russia. Not every country will practice the American Democracy.

So, Russians don't criticise their leaders? People criticise their leader and it happens in all countries of the world, even in North Korea, as strictly controlled as it is, their are records of individual revolts.

official allies or your imaginative allies. If official name them and let match their strength to the west. As frustrated that u are u mentioned China north Korea.
Vietnam was more or less a village compared to the US when the US invaded her. The war was a prolonged disaster for the US and she lost the war shamelessly.

And mind you, the world is beyond China and North Korea. If and when the real war starts, you will be surprised how many the countries that would rise in support of Russia will be. Already, Mexico wouldn't approve sanctions on Russia, that's a US neighbor. And majority of the Western powers were opposed to Ukraine joining NATO, only US is religiously pushing it to spite Russia.

Russia is not Afghanistan or Iran or Syria neither is it Libya. And the US knows that very well thats why all they can do is their normal stale sanctions.

Where the peace is, if for Ukraine to withdraw her interest in NATO. EU, yes! That's okay. The independence of Luhansk and Donetsk can be negotiated with Ukraine and Russia their mother state. And the EU should be an observer and US the world peace (trouble) maker should not join in the talks.

USSR is dead.
It was an aberration of history thanks to Hitler, the maniac.
Hitler had no single hand in the collapse of the USSR. She survived the 2nd world war and took part in the defeat of Hitlers Germany.

But USA got jealous of her potentials as a would power because the USA wanted a unipolar world with her at the top. So, the culprit is the USA. And that's why Russia and the US will never be friendly.

The collapse of the USSR was orchestrated by the US cynically through the funding and armament of separatist group in many soviet republics, one of which Ukraine is.

Do your worst. Enough of all these empty threats. You want to keep killing civilians in the needless war and you think the world would keep folding their arms abi? You've lost the window of opportunities for dialogue already . Youve also forfeited global respect for your foolishness. USA this evening had resolved to deploy fighter jets to Poland to be taken over by Ukraine and foreign volunteer forces. Some of the volunteer forces arrived today. You're taking USA's silence for cowardice meanwhile the latter as the leader in the word had been busy strategising on how to treat tour fuckupp in a way world wouldn't be hurt. My uncle serving in the USA army said today that USA government had charged manufacturing companies to produce iodine in its millions in readiness for Putin's nuclear weapon attacks. They're coming for you.
Who in this world does not enjoy peace and tranquility? Had Russia not been a part of this global system before? Look beyond the popular sentiment and what the biassed press is telling us. Research personally, why did Russia decide to invade Ukraine? This is not a crisis that started in 2022, its from way back the period of the 2nd world war.
Only then, it will become clearer.

Hello all,
Finally got around to making the trip, definitely an eye opener and I'd probably be making same trip at the end of the year again grin
Didn't get any good pictures but I'll post the ones I took.
Left lagos at 5:30 am and got to Abuja the next day due to two burst tyres somewhere in ekiti state, hit a porthole at 120kmh, bought a new pair the next day and completed the trip. The return trip was smother, left Abuja at 10am and was in lagos by 12am
Fun and enlightening trip, the roads are safe(drove the Illesha Ibadan stretch at 10pm and got home safely despite the ungodly time), observed that the police at those checkpoints didn't care about complete vehicle particulars, tipping would save you a whole lotta stress.
Car didn't give any issues and I consistently used one and half tank both ways(a full tank is about 70L)
Return trip was faster, maps estimated 9hrs 11mins, i sha pushed the car, hit 180kmh at some point on lagos ibadan expressway
Which stretch of the road is bad by your experience?
TravelRe: Road Trip: Lagos To Abuja By Road by Idaytesj29(m): 5:20pm On Mar 07, 2022
Wow ... Thats nice.

I like that you enjoyed the trip.

Looking forward to starting a transport biz soon. Lagos to Abuja, but finances has been a major hindrance in getting my preferred Toyota Hiace Bus or a Toyota Sienna both not less than 2008 model.

Getting an Hire Purchase deal has been very difficult too.

Well, in the end, we will get by.

I must commend you for your maturity and rationality which is very much deviod of unnecessary sentiments.

The reality of our contemporary world in human history over a century has, emerged a particular Supper Power so privileged called the United States of America. In all honesty, if the U.S have not been behaving worse than a rogue state since the second World war this particular crisis wouldn't have become a manifestation.

You see, the United States that should have stand as a beacon of hope for the helpess is very much a pillar of direct and indirect oppression of the weak all in an attempt to establish a dominion. Hence, democratic dictatorship.

That is why when we look through the prism of the UN charter and it's article being violated by Russia of course. It is quickly related to tragic precedence of numerous invasions violated by the United States of America and it's allies.

This FACT is one of the argument Putin has also put forward. Which comes back to if only the most privileged country in the world, United States of America have not been a rogue state, our contemporary world since after the world war would have enjoyed a reasonable amount of peace and prosperity.

What is happening at the moment between Russia and Ukraine is only a reflection of human reflexes in an effort to keep at bay the ROGUE STATE, a rogue state which has always justified her illegalities, war crimes by playing on irrational sentiments a core of human psychology.
Thanks you very much. Its very hard to keep the cool on nairaland with many direct abusive replies but I manage to keep my cool.

Thanks once again.

Yes, I agree with your submission up here and I will really love it if we try to understand the US and her foreign policy goal as a people without sentiments, emotions or religious confusion. We would know that her intention are not always good.

She is like a fisheries company selling stale fishes but decided to coat it with ice, does that change the fact that its stale? No.

Many disappointing comments here shows that we don't understand the history of this world and how we came to this point.

Thank you again

Ukraine is not joining nato. The process of joining nato is rigorous. But Russia doesn't want Ukraine to relate with the west economically or politically. If you study putin, he prefer to relate with countries with sit-tight presidents or dictators.
You know the history of US and Russia pretty well, so you know that the way every moves of Russia unsettles the US, every move of the US unsettles Russia too.

Russia does want to create a buffer zone between her and the untrusted West. Unfortunately, inspite if all the agreements, the buffer zone has been broken through the membership of NATO by these buffer countries. The last set being Ukraine and Georgia. Russia has been fighting and w9doing towards ensuring these last set of buffers didnt fall.

Russia does not have any issue with Ukraine being a member of the EU for the economic benefit but NATO, it will be an action that will instigate crisis.

That was not invasion by USA military. It was done by cuba militia group backed by CIA. You don't declare war on country and even threaten to annex it due thing it can be achieved through other means. Coup/assassination will not destroy cities or display civilians etc. War is different ball game. Russia is not smart in dealing with Ukraine.
Agreed. US and Russia should negotiate and suspend all efforts to bring in Ukraine into Nato cos if not evil against Russia, what is the agenda behind the insistence that Ukraine should be a part of NATO?

Did USA invade Cuba in 1962? USA will use diplomatic means including sanctions, coup, assassination to achieve their mean before military action?
Coup is not peaceful neither is Assassination. Yes, there was an invasion.

The 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion by armed militias through southwest Cuba, planned and funded by the United States, in an attempt to overthrow the government of Fidel Castro, who was in Support of the Communist USSR. USSR was to set up a military base in Cuba and probably set up a nuclear station. This was the reason america quickly sponsored an invasion to overthrow Fidel Castro. Both Cuba and Russia are still under US influenced sanctions for this till date.

Now you want to do the same to Russia and expect her to keep quiet.

The war has gone urban guerilla warfare, it is now a full blown insurgency, which is very expensive and hard to sustain.

There already hundreds of US and European , NATO, mercenaries in Ukraine training , arming assisting various militia groups against the Russians and setting up more militant cells across Ukraine with no central command structure.
NATO and United States(CIA) will keep funding and arming different militant groups and even set up terrorist cells all over Ukraine which will make the entire Ukraine ungovernable and hard to capture for Putin and Russia
And thus, Ukraine will be useless to herself, US/NATO and Russia. Rebuilding her will take decades.

In the end, Ukraine will bear all the brunts. The president is foolish.

Is USA a yardstick for good or bad? Do you know that Ukraine handed her nuclear arsenals to Russia in 1993 with agreement that Russia wouldn't attack Ukraine.
Do you know that there was agreement between US and Russia that Russia wouldn't interfere with US interests in Middle East.
In 2015, Ukraine stopped buying gas from Russia due to trade dispute. The truth is that Russia has nothing to offer her neighbours because she lacks negotiation power to do so except military threat.
And the only thing US want to offer them now is the set up of military bases in Ukraine? If US had allowed USSR set up her military base in Cuba in 1962, there wouldn't be any problem. What the US did not permit in Cuba for USSR, the US want Russia to permit it for her in Ukraine. No sane country would allow that.

A real sanction that can hurt Russia is to stop Oil and Gas trade, disconnect Nord Stream 1, and issue out a No fly zone accross Ukrainian airspace, with NATO and EU fighter jets enforcing the No fly zone

All other sanctions like FIFA, PayPal, Swift , seizing of Russian oligarchy's asset would only make Russia seek trade alternative and become even more self reliant and ruthless
Oil and Gas trade can not be stopped. EU and US can only stop buying Russian crude, she will sell to other countries.

More Stream 1 gas does serve Europe, especially Germany. Cut it off and watch them freeze to death in their homes. Ukraine is yet to be a member of NATO and thats why NATO cannot declare a No flying Zone over Ukraine. And let's assume they do, na cargo plane Russia go fly over Ukraine? Or Russia no get fighter Jets?

All other sanctions are not new, since the era of the USSR the state of RUSSIA had always being under stiff sanction by US led west. So, its not new, they will survive.

US and NATO should go and honor their agreement with Russia.
