Good. Now allow your citizens access to Internet. And try and bury Khameni and his son.

Nigerians and their obsession with man, woman, sex, dating, marriage, relationship, and similar topic. Tomorrow, another similar silly topic will be pushed forward again.

God will destroy you and that Tinubu for politicising the pain and death of innocent Nigerians. If there were forces, was it not that duty of the C-in-C to deal with them. But the guy is cursed, and so are you.

franktech:
These killings are becoming too much. Sometimes, it feels like certain forces are bent on tarnishing the image of Tinubu’s government despite efforts to move Nigeria in the right direction.

Nigeria must come first. Enough of the bloodshed.

I bet you dont even really understand the idea behind free-trade zone. First, it is not some brainiac thing. FTZ usually works around areas with major seaports, international airports, or other national frontiers. What is the purpose of that in a landlock state? And I did not hype, you asked a simple question and I gave you simple verifiable answer. Enjoy your evening. I hope bandits are not where you are sha?

Basic123:
If you are hyping brewery like this,
So,what will you now say about the brain behing LEKKI FREE TRADE ZONE?

It is. He invested in factories. Specifically, a brewery that generates hundreds of millions/billions of naira every year and employ thousands of people. The status of Onitsha main market (the largest in Subsaharan Africa) was significantly improved under him. And there are many more. People like you are why Hundeyin is wrong. Nigeria is where we are today because of successive bad governments who have weaponized poverty and ignorance so much that many people, including you, reason and make decisions the wrong way, to the benefits of your political gods.

Basic123:
To intelligent people only

After going through the write up,

Then look at Anambra,


Are you not really confused?

Is Anambra not supposed to the model for whatever P.O is promising us..Is Anambra looking like the europe or America that humdeyin was talking about?

Someone predicted this not long ago. The aviation sector is just too important to them. And they cannot manage to bring themselves to use the road transport.

That untrained terrorists are killing your kind in drove is epistle? Tor.

Emu4life:
Epistle

Iron Dome failed? Or it was not economically wise to use it to intercepte cheap drones that Iran was firing? The audacity of this mass ignorance is crazy. It costs around $100,000 per 1 interception. Now with this cheap option, drone interception just got easier. If your country is 1/10,000 as proactive as Israel, maybe untrained terrorists will not be killing you in drove.

Emu4life:
They should keep it in Tel Aviv to assist the failing Iron Doom

Those are Ignorant people, whose knowledge are limited only to Social Media era. After they beat Egypt four times back-to-back between 1967 and 1973, nobody adviced the president of Egypt then to go to Jerusalem to go make peace. They even have more war winning record than U.S.

angelboy01:
People say without the USA Israel is nothing but what I see it's Israel that's more conservative with funds and even have more advanced weaponry without spending so much unlike the USA. I dey baffle at Israel.

Israel has won more complicated war without U.S. What is Iran. Iran launched over 10,000 missles, and they only managed to destroy some buildings, cars and few plants. Let Iran show us current picture of Iran. Let them cancel their internet blockade so their citizens will tell us what is left of Iran. Israel has more war winning record than any current country in the world. How many war has United State collaborate directly with Israel on? When did U.S even start this fond relationship with Israel sef. Israel has been winning war since 1948, immediately after WWII. Every Navi members that participated in the Holocaust, they killed them one after the other. They have been killing Iran's nuclear scientists for decades, and Iran can only fight back through shadow war. Even in this current war, they have killer many top Iran officials, Iransl was unable to kill one in Israel. There is a huge gap between the two countries, except if you are delusional.

Mirasteel:
How comes the laser dome couldn't stop all Iranian missiles entering Israel? all these things are trash and their will never be Isreal without USA.

What is your thinking for your third world country in 20 years? What is the thinking of your country for 20 years? Your country is a 230 million people that have no thinking, except voting terrible leaders. Now, let me educate you: the post I responded to has nothing with thinking. You are not an Iranian, and they barely even know that some Nigerians exist. It was assumptions. So, how do you even no what the Iranian leadership (whatever is left of them) are thinking? Assumptions is different from thinking. We are talking about a war that we both have no power over: so how's that thinking, you merely made wild assumptions based on your sentiments. Your response, and lack on basic understanding to simple things is more of an insult on black man than my response that 15 - 20 years claim/assumptions is wild, childish and amateurish. How did you know that the Mullah will be in government in 20 years? What makes you think Israel and Iran will not become allies in the next 5 years? Can you now see the laughable emptiness of your assumptions (that you ridiculously called thinking)?
Netanyahu was not even anywhere in government 40 years ago, it was the Ayatollahs that were, and the current one was killed like dog in just 1 day of war despite the 47 years plan of him and his father. So stop lying.
And I make like 6 key points in my response, but like a typical Iran-supporting person, you ignored measurable contributions and happed on polemic. But get, its clear whataboutisn can not get you anywhere meaningful again, as data is not on your side. On this, I will move away.

Razzness:
Tufiakwa! Typical black man thinking. Very shortsighted. You think the world will end in 2 years or that if we do not live to see it, then it does not matter.

Netanyahu that has been planning this war with Iran for 40 years is he a fool? Or Iran that has been building missiles for 47 years to get what they have now were dealing with the present and near future, or America and Russia, which built thousands of nuclear warheads over the course of 35 years were thinking the world would end in 2 years. If by some accident someone like you becomes a leader of a society or organization, then the future of that society is doomed with this your kind of mindset.

Israel’s laser defense system was installed in the UAE 🇦🇪 according to a report in the @FinancialTimes. It shoots down drones and missiles at $3 a shot and never runs out of ammunition.

Jason Brodsky reported for the Financial Times that in addition to Iron Dome, #Israel dispatched a version of the Iron Beam laser-based air defense system to the United Arab Emirates during the recent fighting with #Iran to help protect the Gulf nation from missile and drone attacks.

I enjoy reading all your "ifs". I dont dwell in it. You said 15 to 20 years, as if it were 2 years. Wealth is measurable, and based on current data, Iran is not wealthy. If it is based on the proven oil reserves, you can also argue that Venezuela is a wealthy country. Natural resources is not wealth. It is subject to factors of production and other economic intricacies.
And your argument that Iran will come seek revenge in 15 to 20 years is essentially stating that they are primitive people. Because there are many things a country can be; being a hardline theocracy is one of the dumbest thing any country can seek to be in modern world. Israel and Iran had no issues until the Mullah snatched power in 1979 and decided that Israel deserves no peace and sponsors shadow wars against Israel. If anybody should seek revenge, it should be Israel. Going by Iran's history and their governance system, what makes you think the Mullahs will not be disposed by other Iranians in your 15 to 20 years? You see, wishful thinking. Iran will not get any special sanction reliefs. By who?
Your conclusion on the economic implications of the war on China is simplistic.
Going by casualties, destruction, current standing, fatalities, loss, Israel is by far the biggest winner of the war. Any other thing is "creating ones happiness". Iran has never been this weak since the Iran - Iraq war. I deal in the present and near future. Not 20 years that is not sure for either of us.

Razzness:
Currently holds the largest crude oil inventory in the world, estimated at nearly 1.4 billion barrels stored. So the idea that China is hurt by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is wishful thinking. And for China, anything that will distract the US and consume its resources is a welcome development.

You think Iran is not wealthy? They have the 3rd largest proven oil reserve in the world.
Moreover, if they manage to survive this war through a negotiated settlement, they will almost certainly get some form of sanction relief.

If this war ends without a regime change, Israel is undoubtedly the biggest loser. They will be leaving behind a vengeful, more motivated regime with the political will, technical know-how, and money to rebuild. All that Iran has lost, it will not take them more than 15 to 20 years to rebuild and restock it. And it is almost certain they will be more motivated to pursue a nuclear weapon than they were before. A nuclear Iran is a thought Israel cannot simply live with.

First is that you deviate from the key point I raised. Secondly, they did not survive this war due to their own ability, the greatest deterrence in this war to Trump, U.S., and Israel is not Iran's capability, it is outrage among their respective citizens and allies. Iran had already started using human shield. Thats in some ways, conceding defeat. On the Strait, you are right, but there are some key issues you deliberately ignored: one, the strategy is also counterproductive (i.e. U.S blocking the Iran port), two, the blockade hurt countries that are a little friendly to Iran (like China), than it hurt any country in the West. And you dont become a world power by blocking international waterway, do it too long, and you will draw the outrage of even the people supporting you. On money, Iran is not a wealthy country, and not after this war where they took a loss/damage of hundreds of billions. The biggest winner in the war is actually Israel. Because it will take some tims before Iran can stabilise.

Razzness:
I am not saying they are a world power as it is. They are not even the strongest country in the Middle East as it is. But if for some reason, this current Iranian regime manages to survive this war, even if it's through a negotiated settlement, then they may well be on track. First of all, their newfound ability to disrupt the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz effectively means they can control 20% of the world's oil flow. That is not small; the US is at 21%.

Additionally, if they somehow survive, then there is no doubt that obtaining a nuclear weapon will be their next big objective. They have the money, technical know-how, and political will to develop one. I am not saying it will happen, but if it happens, a nuclear Iran with control of the flow of 20% of the world's energy is by all intent and purposes a world power.

Relax dude. That is not how country just emerge as world power. Country dont emerge as world power by using propaganda tools. Oh! I forget, the propaganda tools like Facebook was invented by a Jew (Mark Zuckerberg), in a country (U.S.A). You need money, systems, technology, education and financial system, real weaponry (nuclear weapon is important), to emerge as world power. This thing is a simple truth, but I'm sure you people is not looking for simple truth.

Razzness:
If the US is not careful, Iran will emerge from this war a world power.
The leverage Iran has over the entire world is not moi-moi, o. Just imagine fuel went from N790 to N1300 in less than 2 months. Even though Iran's military is no match for the US and Israel, they find themselves in a strategic position that has forced the US and Israel to exercise a level of restraint we have never seen from them before. The US almost never does a cease-fire. If they commit to a war, they usually see it through even if it takes several years. But with Iran the stakes are too high; that's why they negotiated a ceasefire and even extended it when Iran refused to capitulate.

Imagine if Ukraine had similar leverage over the global economy; the world would not have sat back and allowed Russia to pound them like this. But because the war does not affect anybody outside of Ukraine, everybody is just sympathizing with Ukraine from a distance. Now with Iran, the story is very different; everybody is feeling it.

There is simply no easy way out for Trump here; if you continue negotiating, Iran continues to play hardball. If you continue the blockade, oil prices and global inflation keep rising. If you agree to Iran's ceasefire term, America becomes humiliated. If you send in ground troops, many American soldiers will be lost. If you bomb their power plants and bridges, they will bomb the bridges and power plants of countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait that have been paying you billions for protection. If you withdraw, they will become emboldened and continue with whatever they are doing. Trump must chew one of these bitter pills.
I guess extending the ceasefire is a less bitter pill.

Then, going by your last paragraph, we can agree that Soyinka was a nuisance during Buhari's tenure, and worse than a nuisance during Jonathan's government.

HacheNoire:
Professor Wole Soyinka is highly learned and familiar with economics indices to assess and reach judgement.

You do not expect him to address issues when there is none. He is familiar with the great shift His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is working on and aware about the course where The President is navigating towards.

When you see critics silent, is not that they are scared, bribed or being cowards. It is because they CURRENTLY do not have critical issues to address.

It will be nuisance for The Great Wole Soyinka to start addressing matters like Peter, who has no in-depth knowledge about economics or a sense of feasibility to know where the country is drifting towards.

If hypocrisy were a person.

I do not love him and do not care about him. I addressed your moral inconsistencies and lack of logical independence.

Vision101:
The same Edu that you guys were insulting before that he doesn't know anything is now loved?

The same Edu that was finance commissioner under Tinubu is now loved by you more than Tinubu. Wonders and wonders.

LOL. APC people. They hate anybody that says the truth about the situation of the country and the obvious leadership failure which they themselves, are aware of. They can even miraculously hate people they praise an hour ago. The dumbest cult of all time, and a group that hate Nigeria with passion.

Basic123:
I hate this wale edun with passion!

He rarely present personal opinions ad fact unfortunately. If he is fined, he can sue NBC consistently, and will win, consistently.

quadraheem:
Rufai, hope you are listening?

You people literally lives in a universe of your own where you have your own reality, your own truth, you own facts and your numbers. Its an interesting phenomenon.

HacheNoire:
……and the US has suffered over $5,000,000,000 in losses, coupled with a crashing USD and decline in international reputation.



In addition, the US military industrial complex will NEVER recover from the humiliation, disgrace and rubbishing of their hardwares.

The whole world now knows Expensive does not translate to reliability and efficiency.

Let’s just say Iran redefined warfare!

If creating your own reality in your non-existent corner of the world is how you stay happy, why should anyone attempt to take that away from you? Enjoy your grand delusion.

mynd1:
Let US propaganda they deceive you.... For your information, many ships left Iranian ports and nothing stops them.

You people are hopeless. Don't you get tired of this same asinine talking point?

Alapereketu:
even tho their messiah become president

Nobody can change Nigeria

Something way don spoil since 1979 election

Don't you think your fellow Muslims who have committed the greatest atrocities in human history in the name of Islam need this sermon more than peace-loving Nigerian Christians?

otipoju:
Jesus himself no do reach you. There is a time and place for everything. That Rector of the mosque probably knows the bible more than you do.

The way you hold your beliefs fervently is the same way they hold theirs fervently.
It is only the Holy Spirit that can convict a man and turn his heart.

Live and let live.

And to that guy that said that Christians should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers...please tell me why even Jesus was accused of being friends with wine drinkers, tax collectors and other outcasts of the society.

The guy selling you meat in the market is likely a Muslim. The petrol you buy in your car is refined by a Moslem and the imported ones are from Muslim countries.

Make una do small small.

These people should stop all their silly empty threats already. The world is having enough of it already. What were you looking at when he took the Strait of Hormuz easily from you. It is this empty threats all over while Isreal killed their leaders one after another without repercussions or even one meaningful retaliation. At this stage, I think you folks are not serious and will make a better career as content creators to the amazement of the jesters that support you.

May I not have any reason to be on the same side with these people whether in global or domestic issues. Talk about bigotry, hatred, selfishness, and every other negative things imaginable, you shall find them there. I'm sure this charlatan has no issues with the federal Muslim-Muslim leadership. And I am sure he has no issues with a Muslim succeeding a Muslim as president. Talk about barbarity and hypocrisy.

Even if he is a scumbag as you put it, he is more righteous than your kind. Cry over a terrorist government in far away middleeast, silence when muslim terrorist are killing innocent Nigerians in Nigeria. So who's the real scumbag?

fwallex4truth:
So, tired of this Scumbag.


You're not Righteousness, you are evil

Despicable humans. Their own children are living lavish lives across the west, yet they subject children of the innocent to inhumane treatment and sponsors terrorisms across the region and the world. Yet you see their fellow barbarians on Nairaland here - the ones who are obsessed about Israel (a symbol of light) - search for Internet everyday for news about Israel. May God save us. BTW, does that God100 character has a job?
