Foreign AffairsRe: Why Is Western Media Especially CNN So Biased And Anti Trump? by Jimi24: 7:04pm On Nov 13, 2019
brownsugardr:
Am not a fan of President Trump, he is definitely not a normal President, very controversial individual. But he is not all bad.My annoyance is, you will hardly see especially CNN broadcast any good achievements by Trump administration.Such media Organizations are losing credibility, while they are trying to discredit Trump. Why the bias?
Trump should not be President of an advanced country. He is not unusual, not abnormal. He is just not knowledge able enough and competent enough for President.

You are very wrong to say only the mainstream press hates him. All who have worked with him hate him. The most conservative of republicans who worked with him say he is not fit for the office. These are people who hate the Democratic party, who hate Obama and who hated Hillary Clinton

There are times to face hard truths about people and things.
PoliticsRe: Nigerian Army, DICON Sign Agreement For Production Of Ezugwu MRAP Vehicles by Jimi24: 10:23am On Nov 13, 2019
nedekid:
I seem to be misunderstood.
I support the idea to make indigenous equipment for our forces. As you said proforce has been great so far.
All I said is that the design looks flawed.
Appart from the drivers view etc with lots of blind spots, I do not see a front driver or passenger door. Ie exit probably only from the rear.
Look at the picture of the front tyres, it seems to be over weight for the chassis.
Just my observation.
Right about the undersized tires. They are run flat so maybe this is all they have in store now.
There should be secondary and tertiary exits at the gun mounts (turrets).

There is no armoured vehicle or MRAP that has unrestricted fields of view. They all have blind spots.

Nigeria has many options of turrets with 12.5mm machine gun carrying with 30mm grenade launchers and some multiple launch grenade launchers.

Important to realize that the operating procedure for MRAPs is to dismount rapidly to engage the enemy with the HMG, 30mm guns or grenade launcher providing cover

An ordinary man that wrote the story is your god now abi? You can't be smarter than him? Boeing and the source chose only the two helicopters they wish to compare. Common sense should tell you that because their comparison also excludes Eurocopter Tiger and China Z-10 that looks exactly like Apache, does not mean Tiger and WZ-10 are inferior rivals not competing with Apache.

My guy u hav problem tinking outside a box.

Look it's not about common sense bruz, it's about technical military sense, Boeing cannot compare Mi-35 with Apache because Boeing does not produce assault helicopters of Mi-35 class, Boeing only builds attack helicopters of Mi-28 class.

So Boeing is totally silent on Mi-35 and chose Mi-28 for comparison, same with that your data source, they both said clearly that the comparison is strictly for attack helicopters and Mi-35 doubles as a troop transport, not categorized with those types.

Russia built the Mi-28 as marketing concept to compete with Apache for customers by using copy copy look-alike shape design, that was the failed idea of rival that only 2 buyers choose. Reality turned out differently than designers concept plan, reality today is 80 air forces worldwide choose Mi-35 if they cannot get Apache, so miltary forces world wide have made Mi-35 the real life rival to Apache in real warfare, not in marketing design concept. This simple fact now becomes rocket science too complex for you to understand.
100% correct

Absolutely no luxury here. Ihis closeness to the President is interfering with democratic tradition we are worried but as someone that some of us have watched since the 70s, he is just a patriot who gas stuck to his relative (Buhari) through thick and thin.
No corruption, maybe a little too dogmatic and ideological but that's a plus these days of empty cash and carry politicians.

WARTHUNDER:
Someone said dis b4 but I didnt reply cuz I avoid endless arguments. Rival in what way?

My bruz, no weapon on Mi-28 dat Mi-35M cannot carry. Mi-35M armour is superior to Mi-28 armour. People have wrong ideas dat Mi-28 is better, no, not latest type NAF dozen Mi-35M Hind E with the most advanced Russian avionics ever.

Russia rivals Apache with Mi-35, if you ask them for combat helicopter sale, Russia will market Mi-35 to you. Apart from the maker, only 2 countries bought Mi-28, while 20 countries bought Apache and 80 countries bought Mi-24/35. That shows you the real two rivals according to judgement by air forces worldwide, not according to we civilians' judgement nah grin
TRUE.
I also once recommended Kamov helicopter. Please dont buy Kamov. Other countries are rejecting them.
MI 28 is just MI 35M without troop carrying capabilities

kunleweb:
I trued and tried explaining this over the past few weeks but people seem to have misinformation problem.

Thanks for the beautiful article

Cc SarkinYarki FarahAideed
It's a stupid article and filled with lies.

1. Saying Nigerian soil is bad for rice.
That is a big LIE. It is not even intelligent
Our productivity problem is from low yield seed, wrong or fake fertilisers and poor irrigation. It has nothing to do with soil. It is incompetence and corruption by perdons managing small holder farmers. Dangote, Coscharis, Stallion and Olam are now in rice, this liar will be exposed in.a few years.

2. Nigeria actually has higher annual cycle productivity in.rice because we can plant and harvest three times a year
Thailand fan do only once or one and half

3 . Nigeria is not after import substitution only. We want to be an exporter of rice. Local demand will be easily satisfied

4. Nigeria has higher competitive advantage in rice than most countries because of the large local market that gives opportunity to developed good economy of scale. We also have good comparative advantage in petroleum. We have crude oil and refineries already. The fact that we are not exploiting these economies of scale is STUPIDITY. Being too stupid to realize that you can beat a smaller, slower guy does not mean you don't have those abilities. It simply means you are stupid.

5. In any case, the die is cast. Nigeria must help farmers repay their loans so we don't have default.
Nigeria has not banned rice. Just bring it direct to our ports and pay the duty.

This article above is just defending smugglers and economic saboteurs

PropertiesRe: Real Estate Never Depreciates: How True? by Jimi24: 6:59am On Nov 03, 2019
One of the few countries where real estate depreciates is Nigeria.
When I say depreciates, I mean very very badly. Excessive urbanization, planlessness, un enforced regulations, advancing slumnization all are contributing to this depreciation in value. I have real life examples from neighborhoods in Surulere, Opening, Abuja, Ilorin and Port harcourt.
Only those who dont have property think real estates always appreciate.
Better choose your neighborhood carefully before investing

PoliticsRe: Dele Momodu: Alhaji Atiku Abubakar And The Verdict Of Man by Jimi24: 1:22pm On Nov 02, 2019
PoliticalWitch:
1.Well, this is the same Justice Tanko who handed over Zamfara to the PDP....

2.As for Atiku's case.

a) Server issues....the fact is, the law governing the elections of 2019 does not allow for the use of servers. No matter how many witnesses Atiku brought forth...they were always going to run into that banana peel.

b). And to believe that Buhari had no WASC certificate (Kyari's shenaigans nothwistanding) is to beleive that in 1961...Buhari was somehow admitted into the Nigerian Army, at a time when it was run by white people, and at a time when most of his contemporaries, including his fellow tribesmen all had their certificates....which means that the conspiracy to put Buhari on the throne in 2015 started as far back as 1961...which sounds riddiculous.(considering also that Bubu is not really of the Northern elite....).

Plus, Buhari was given an attestation by the WAEC Sec General, which he applied for. If he had no record of ever writing the exam, WAEC won't have been able to provide him with the attestation at all.Also his school released his CA sheets for the said exam...

Finally, assuming Buhari had no certificate, that means that INEC under PDP was so so incompetent that they kept on accepting him as a candidate with no results. Indeed, the certificate did not matter until 2015 when APC was posing a threat to PDP...and PDP felt they had to do something...fast.


By the way, I wish Buhari was not president. Neither do I want Atiku or any of the bigwigs of PDP or APC as my leaders. But let's be frank, Atiku's case was dead.

d) And even on rigging....APC did worse than they did in 2015. They lost more votes in the SOuth West, and middle belt, and had to rely on votes from the North. Infact, if the SE had shown up in their numbers, Bubu and Atiku might have been fighting a rerun.
Atiku also has deep personality flaws. Lets us leave the very personal ones which actually matter in some places north and south.

How do you as a business man spend so much money on fighting results of elections?
So many SANS, so many wasters on social media? .

Is there not a thing as risk management? OR is he so used to the power of money as spent on delegates in PH that he stated deceiving himself about its efficacy in all situations? .

Money is and would always be subservient to Power and Power is from God.

Money is not from God. All he promised is meeting needs and giving the power to make wealth. Whoever does not understand that has my sympathy.

As for Nigetia, it appears the only way NOT to be President is to be excessively rich.

Why would China use the JF-17 when it already flies the J-10?

Your assertion makes no sense.

I understand you are Indian, you have every right to defend your country but please make reasonable arguments.
Aside from this, the JF17 design is short legged in terms of distance. The Chinese specific requirements being a very large country cannot be met by this aircraft but most Arab and African countries not interested in geographic power projection find it useful but no less potent. The LCA is also short legged and it is an Indian development. Short of the Russian SU 30MKI and more recently the Rafale, India does not have any heavy weight combat aircraft to speak off. Pakistan is countering with ageing F 16s but JF 17s Block 2 and 3 are being prepared as potent answers to SUs. So where's this idea about being cheap equala being weak coming from?
PoliticsRe: Army Begins Operation Identification Nationwide Today by Jimi24: 5:14am On Nov 02, 2019
The President actually has broad discretionary powers on defence and security so this case will die.

Nobody is forcing ID on you but of you are traveling and you are young, you will be profilee. If you are from the NE you may ne Boko Haram. N. West you may be a kidnapper pr bandit.

Falana is being narrow minded. The NA has not forced ID on anybody . You can travel without ID but you may experience delays whilst on the road. Delays of a few days.

People should think. When this measure brings a marked reduction in.kidnapping, all mouths will be shut.

If Amechi or Umahi is that person and with a popular Northern VP, SE/SS are in. North is in repaying favours and railways. SW is divided but advantage APC
