Funny enough, it's a whole channels that's carrying the news
The truth is that traditional medias are in a dilemma and under pressure from bloggers
and content creators.
If they remain fully traditional and verify all news before posting, they lose woke audience to the new "journalists".
If they try to compete with the bloggers, many of us will start dumping them.

The only way you can please some Christians is to hand over everything to them. In one breath, they will say Muslims give birth without control, in another, they will say Nigeria has more Christians than Muslims. Hypocrisy resides in some churches.

Foreign AffairsRe: Criminal charges against Wagner Force dropped, leader heads to Belarus - Kremlin by ivolt: 4:12pm On Jun 25, 2023
Hohaiiiode:
wagner fighters are going to attack Ukraine from the Belarus. The tanks and amored Carriers Wagner came into Russia with will be left in the border towns to defend against ukraine subsequent attacks. Russia have been moving weapons and tanks and supplies to Belarus for sometime now. This is nothing but a psyop , well planed and have many actors including Putin. Wagner boss made a lot of noise when they were fighting in bakhmut and Ukrainians fell for it and there were hammered badly and subsequently Wagner took bakhmut. I was listening to a commentator talk about the deep holes dug in highways to stop Wagner advance, all is nothing but a perfectly planed act. If Ukraine and their western handlers sleep on this . There will be taken by supprise. There is nothing to suggest a weakness or disintegration of Russian side. If there is any . The Ukrainian offensive would have been successful
Stop fantasizing. There is no perfect script out there as conspiracist would have you believe.
Wagner boss is a goner whether Russia attacks from Belarus a second time is immaterial.
The Wagner has a group will be disintegrated and absorbed into the Russian army.

BTW, Prigozin rants in Bakhmut were absolute truths.
He was being sidelined by Russian regular forces, the fact that he took Bakhmut
doesn't prove otherwise.

He got what he wanted, kid. That was a mere protest. Did you ever think Wagner group (25k members according to their leader) stand a chance to get to Putin?
Dude wanted to be recognised by Russian military leaders and he sure got their attention.
See this toddler dabbling into what he doesn't understand.
Putin didn't survive this long by allowing ordinary protest among his cabinet let alone a armed rebellion.
I won't bother schooling you into what an open rebellion means to a leader who survives
by perceive strength. You are free to fantasize however you wish.

Prigozin is a fool.
If you must aim for the emperor, make sure you don't miss but he missed.
Putin will now have enough time to destroy him completely.
Prigozin is a dead man walking and FSB will likely place secret bounty on his head.
He can't go back to Russia and he can't go back to fighting either because the Russian
Army will refuse to give him sufficient arms.
He got the attention he wanted at the cost of his life.

P.S I don’t support Russia’s on going invasion, most people here mistake supporting BRICS as being pro Putin, however Africans should remain neutral, if at all sides are to be taken African countries should side with BRICS.

No air support, no ground support. And Russian army has far more in numbers.

All in all, 30000-50000 troops vs the hundreds of thousands of Russian troops?

War is a big mess tho.
Read the headline again.
Wagner is not fighting and haven't fought any Russian army group.
Wagner is confident that it has widespread support.

You are missing the point.
The crack head Prigozin is not interested in power.
He is being used by some opposition Russian oligarch to test the water.
If he match on Moscow with little resistant, the cabal will start coming out of the shadow.

The real test is whether Russian military would actually open fire on his troops or just let him
march on Kremlin.

Mind you, I'm a citizen of a country which is on the Ukrainian(NATO) side.
Why don't you migrate to Russia instead.
I am sure you will roll red carpet for Putin's troop should they find their way to your country of residence.

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Military Base In Moscow On Fire In What Appears To Be Attempted Coup by ivolt:
FreeStuffsNG:
Haba, not with Russia abeg.
Russia can crush Ukraine easily but it is making the war a long drawn one to finish the west. See UK already in serious economic problems and US will soon face elections where some Republicans are already opposed to the continued expenditure on the war.

China, Iran and Venezuela (helped by Iran has now recovered economically) are yet to go fully into the war like the allied nations in NATO are doing. This war is not going to be won, it will be a long drawn one by Russia to bring the west to its knees. If you sack Putin, another Putin will replace him to continue the war.

Ukraine should not join NATO and both parties should give peace a chance shikena.

NATO already got Finland and Sweden they should leave a Ukraine in the middle of Russia and Belarus.
Russia can never easily crush Ukraine.
Russia is bleeding both materially and financially and you are talking about the UK's economy which has been struggling since Covid-19.
Russia's crude is now the cheapest in the world all thanks to the war.
The only hope of Putin is its nukes, unfortunately he can't use it for now because he doesn't know how NATO
would react. The Chinese and the Indians, Putin's main financial lifelines have been very clear about their opposition to the use of nukes.

fortunez1:
nato president said it himself that Ukraine will not be joining nato any soon, so why didn't Putin put down his weapons.
Don't mind them.
He claimed he invaded because of Nato, yet Putin didn't bother invading when both Sweden and Finland applied
to join NATO.
But he invaded Ukraine which has never formally applied nor considered for membership.
Foreign AffairsRe: Is Attempted Coup Underway In Russia ? by ivolt: 1:57am On Jun 24, 2023
The problem with the Wagner boss is that he talks too much.
If he was smart, he would have secretly contact the CIA to use their assets to help him seize power.
Even those who wants Putin gone don't trust Prigozin because he could read out their names in one
of his rants.
PoliticsRe: Note:pay Attention To The Woman Who Tinubu Shook Hands With by ivolt: 11:19am On Jun 23, 2023
Canvass:
So far so good, Nigeria under Tinubu has been tilting towards the West while most other African countries are tilting towards China and Russia. He has been doing everything IMF, World Bank and WEF have stipulated. No more fuel subsidy, power subsidy to go, taxes coming up e.g. diesel vat tax increase, devaluing Naira etc. I don't see them killing him so soon. He's doing their bids.
Better stick to what you know.
Which African countries is tilting?
The only Russian ally in Africa is South Africa and they are not just "tilting", they
have been allies since the Apartheid regime.

The "tilting" countries are headed by dictators seeking legitimacy, if they get such
legitimacy today from the west, they will dump Russia that has nothing to offer than
occasional free fertilizers and mercenaries.

African countries do not align, they swing wherever their bread is buttered.

PoliticsRe: Can A Non-Nigerian Hold Executive Office In Nigeria? The Sanwolu Dilemma. by ivolt: 7:27am On Jun 23, 2023
Stop the misinformation.

Please can you tell us who is the Non-Nigerian?
There is a very lengthy process of renouncing Nigerian citizenship.
Announcing it on radio, social media or even swearing it in court, local or foreign
does not invalidate a Nigerian citizenship.

The issue before the court is that of a dual citizenship and and not a nationality status.

I remember this story, I marvelled at her audacity and Temerity back then, the arrogance and overzealousness of some of our leaders and security personnel in Nigeria is bad.

I remember saying she should pray this man doesn't become governor in Kano because he will surely deal with her.

Would she have done that to APC or PDP candidate? She thought the man wasn't going to win, she saw him as inferior candidate.

The lessons here are, nothing lasts forever, power is transient, use it wisely.

Don't treat other people with contempt and disdain because nobody knows tomorrow.

Dogalmighty17:
THERE has been a rather marked loosening of immigration controls by most Western governments in the last decade. A great number of our intellectuals, skilled peoples and professionals in Nigeria have moved out or are planning to do so for a promise of a better life. That's fair.
You can make your point without misinformation.
There is no loosening of immigration controls in the west, definitely not towards Nigeria.
Perhaps, by west you mean the US, even at that hispanics not Africans are the one moving in en masse.
And the reason is liberal politics looking for future voters.
Nigeria has even been banned from US visa lottery some years back.
Health workers demand especially in the UK are an anomaly and since they make up a very tiny portion of Nigeria's population,
you can't just generalise base on them

It was easier traveling to the "West" 15 years ago than it is today.

PoliticsRe: Banks, Telcoms, Oil Firms To Lose 2% Revenue For Data Breach – FG by ivolt: 11:30am On Jun 20, 2023
ojasweb:
Mention the countries that does according to your suggestion and maybe with the source. And also, prove to us that Nigeria does not have a framework for the companies.

The government is not entirely responsible for telling the citizens how and when to take legal actions against data breach. Most of the citizens are even lazy to read about the laws that are protecting them.

In the western countries, the government fine companies, yet it doesn't stop the individuals from filling a case against the same companies.

If you as a citizen see a breach in your data, you can still file a case irrespective of whether the government has fined them or not.
I will reiterate my points again.
Companies are fined for FAILURE to comply with data protection regulations especially not reporting it within stipulated time.
No sensible government fines a company just for being breached alone.
But this dumb bill is indirectly criminalising reporting!

If you are genuinely curious and not some programmed bot defender.
You can start your learning process by googling GDPR, HIPAA and FCT Act.

PoliticsRe: Banks, Telcoms, Oil Firms To Lose 2% Revenue For Data Breach – FG by ivolt: 10:16am On Jun 20, 2023
This is a myopic move all in the name of revenue.
No organization is 100% protected against data breach, not even the government itself.

Affected organization will now choose to deny and hide any attack from the public to avoid paying fines.
The right thing to do is to provide framework for data security and fine any organization which refuses
to follow the rules as obtained in other countries.
Also, they should let affected individuals sue the companies instead of the government cornering the
compensation meant for the victims as usual.
