Tiiitoo: Well, you have made up your mind that looking eastward is much better. I believe the premise of your argument is based on the idea of a multipolar world which essentially is not a bad idea. If by achieving these goals is by claiming territories, bringing back empires, breaking known international laws so that they can compete then its criminal.
I don't quite agree with this, this why Russia should not be allowed to win this war even if it last for a long time cos it will embolden other authoritarian states to do the same.
What happens when Russia wins. Chinas takes on Taiwan, North Korea takes on South Korea and goes on.
Top ten world economies are actually on the western hemisphere apart from China and India, do your research on however standards you want to measure it.
Nigeria is not a communist state, we do not share the same ideology with China and co. We have nothing in common with them apart from TRADE. It was the same China that committed human right abuses against Uyghurs muslims, they were murdered in concentration camps, nobody said a word but the West you love to hate. No press freedom in Russia, the Kremlin will literally poison and assassinate dissenting voices, Kim Jong of North Korea nkor? Don't even get me started.... I said it earlier that China and Russia are not saints. But don't let the west tell you that. For every finger you point at Russia and allies, there are 4 pointing back at the west. I don’t understand why you keep bringing north Korea to the discourse, how can Russia and China be an ally of North Korea, a country they both sanctioned. Was it not few years ago we saw Donald Trump trying to broker a peace deal with North Korea, if Putin had tried that, he would had the war criminal tag long before now.  I see why it's easy to say people that support West are always consuming their media propaganda. If you can stop Russia and allies, please do, if you can't then let's watch as the events unfold. |

majesticguy: It has nothing to do with being shallow minded. For me, I don't joke with my cinematography as regards movies, and we all know there's no way a movie with 80s cinematography would remotely match what we have now.
So for me, once the cinematography is not up to my taste, i loose interest in the movie, no matter how great the plot is. Respectfully, you don't know what you are saying. |

Tiiitoo: If African countries have not fared well in matters of Econnomy, Demoracy and human & infrastructural Development do not blame the West It's mainly its leaders, they are short sighted, visionless, Myopic, corrupt and undiscerning. Like i said, African leaders and the Citizens have to be smart by taking advantage of Western technologies and advance its cause; in that way they'll be respected in comity of nations but when doing that you don't take sides.
The African continent is small to take on these advanced countries economically, for instance UK does less in production but their economy is deep rooted in delivering first class services. Almost all commercial ships in the world are insured in Lloyds of London. Even the ships that delivered those beautiful marbles from Turkey to your house is probaly insured in Lloyds of London.
It was in this same Forum someone posted that Nigerians in Disapora remitted about $163 billion dollars to Nigeria in the last 10 years or so (Im not too sure about the number of years), what Countries were those Monies remitted from?
Whats the GDP of Russia; about 1.7 trillion Dollars for over 140 million people, what is the GDP of UK; about 3.2 Trillion dollars for 67 Million people. Can Russia afford to dole out financial aids to Africa. Look at Somalia for example, there a massive starvation and famine going on there but you wouldnt know, it took the help of the British Media, Doctors without borders and financial aids from West to rescue those kids that were dying in numbers. Where was China, North Korea or Russia?, busy building hypersonics and enlarging their military.
I have lots friends and families across Europe and the Americas so I wouldnt want them to bear the brunt of silly mistakes of uninformed few over here, going to Social media and spreading anti west sentiments in the name of "i have right to opinion" and bla bla bla. (That was the area of concern of the OP) This war is real and it is changing a lot of things.
Yes, South Africa operates a sophisticated economy, what about other sub-saharan countries whose GDPs cannot compete with a single state in America? should they carry placards too and shout death to the West? These guys have planned for the future, we need them bro.
Even India, the world's 6th largest economy is maintaining a neutral stance but South Africa is jumping up and down and Africans (Nigerians) are cheering them. Well, their Rands is depreciating by the day.
Look i am not an American or Western Lover but China, Russia or North Korea are hardly the role model you are advocating for. These guys are Authoritarians, Putin is gonna remain in power till 2030 or so, Xi ping has just won his historic 3rd term (10 years and counting) North Korea is a family dynasty lol.
if we think democracy is the best type of government then we must always lean towards the west and be SMART about it too.
Sorry for the long read and my errors. GDP isn't an actual indicator for good economy. Same UK has not been like it was economically, you can read about how English people complain about their economy online. So I'll take the GDP comparison with a pinch of salt, I'd rather we compare them based on the percentage of middleclass. Ask yourself how Sub-Saharan Africans are still poor despite the lots of aids they've received from the west in so many years. If someone gives you a cure for an ailment but the same illness keeps getting worse despite taking the supposed cure, then something might be fishy as it is with these west's aids. India is an ally of Russia, they are one important member of the BRICS and they hate UK and US, Infact they wrote a go to hell farewell to the royal family when Elizabeth died. So India are not neutral, they support Russia. I saw how you snucked in north Korea 🤣. No one is saying Russia and allies are saints but don't let a country that was in Afghanistan for 20 years and many other countries committing atrocities tell you who the devil is, because they wouldn't point to themself. Remember what they did in Libya. Democracy isn't the best type of government, it sure isn't the only form of government. China and Russia aren't poor and they are well respected and feared, I think their leaders are doing a pretty good job. The US wasn't always this good/rich country under this same democracy. North Korea is bad because it doesn't practice democracy, I agree but there too many bad/poor countries that practices same democracy. You can't even tell me countries like UK, Belgium, Chile etc practices democracy when they're monarchs are importanter than their prime ministers. |

Blessed4sure: Never mind, dude. You have won.
But don't spend all your life on Nairaland, try to check out forums like quora and see what people's mentality is, who are not Nigerians. Perhaps you'll be able to see that asking simple questions doesn't correlate to bad belle and finding loopholes. My first comment was just to correct someone else's mistake, not even the OP's. Until you carried it on your head like gala.
I initially thought it was someone I could exchange words with, in a decent conversation.
Knowing how to calculate 2023 - 2016 is now the definition of maturity.

Blessed4sure: Bad belle?, because it adds anything to my pocket, right?
Granted I made a mistake with the duration, but it's not your business to tell me to grow up. And there's no assurance your life is in any way better than mine.
My first comment was not even to disprove the guy's assertion. I only pointed out that the business started at least five years ago.
And I gave allowance in my first comment to you, by saying it's possible POS business could have started in Lagos by then. I was even throwing banters with you.
It's a pity many Nigerians can't have decent and intelligent conversations without being abusive. Please stay off my mentions and get a life too.
Nobody must question anything. Asking simple questions must be bad belle. No wonder the country is like this. One begins to wonder whether na low IQ things ,or the frustrating economic situation. I don’t care whether your life is better than mine. But I hate it when people look for loop holes in stories especially when the owner of the story when is worried and needs support. Na you dey shout low IQ and Buhari economy but you forgot were dissing him by calling 2016 five or six years ago. No lele now.

I graduated in 2016 from OAU, in Osun State, and never used POS throughout.
I wouldn't know if it was popular in places like Lagos though. Bro, is 2016 5 years ago? You need to grow up. POS was popular in AAUA especially in 2018. Even student did it as the business was very fast. Just shut it with your bad belle and get a life. |

Ken4Christ: You are insulting me because I backed up my point. I pity the person that will marry you. You just proved that you are not ripe for marriage. I'm telling to shut up because your claim is baseless and have no stance in Christianity. David Oyedpo courted his wife for 6 years for instance and their marriage is one of the most celebrated in Nigeria Christianity. As long as you don't break the rules, the number of years in courtship is inconsequential. The fact that your pastor doesn't like it is you and your pastors problem. So please, SHUT THE FUCCK UP! |
Christianity Etc › Re: I Cautioned My Pastor To Stop Mounting Marriage Pressure On Today by Karleb(m): 8:26am On May 19, 2023 |
Ken4Christ: The disadvantages of long courtship
1. It brings down the value of the girl child especially when sex is involved. There is nothing more to see. So, you are not motivated to consummate it in marriage.
2. It exposes you to temptation especially for relationships where you made a resolution not to engage in sex. When it gets too prolonged, the temptation to break that resolution is there.
3. It leads to broken hearts when it breaks especially on the part of the lady. She feels used and it will affect her trying to get into new relationship.
4. You waste your partners time when such relationships does not consummate in marriage. I know of a lady who dated a guy for 13 years only to be dumped by him. And she is well over 40 years. How many young men want to date a lady of her age? Not too many.
5. It makes the heart sick. Delays in many things we do sometimes makes the heart sick. You keep asking, when will it happen.
So, I repeat, long courtship should be discouraged.
It doesn't mean you shouldn't know who you are want to get married to very well. This is why we always advise you to marry your friend. In other words, marry someone you have known for a long period of time. Shut the fucking up! |

Blessed4sure: Take it easy before pouring out bile on others. You can simply explain.
Or are you the OP using another account?
It can be deduced from the writeup that he started the POS business about five years ago. He claimed he started the business when his fiancee who is now 25, was 20 years. You people are kids sha.  POS has been for more than 5 years and people used it very well. I remember how popular it was in school then and I graduated in 2018. |
Christianity Etc › Re: I Cautioned My Pastor To Stop Mounting Marriage Pressure On Today by Karleb(m): 6:27am On May 19, 2023 |
Ken4Christ: You took the right decision. But my question is, why go into a relationship when you are not ready to get married within two years of relationship?
This is where I feel you missed it.
Start a relationship when you know you are ready for marriage.
Don't think you will never meet anyone like him or her in life.
There are many people who can equally make a good partner.
I don't subscribe to long courtship. You people should STFU with this "I don't subscribe to long courtship". Leave people the hell alone. Long courtship has been for a long time until some pastors started talking shit about and you all are following like zombies. |

Tiiitoo: I align with your thoughts. I see south Africa at the forefront in leading the rebellion against the West with Nigerian Citizens on the African continent as if the war concerns them. The Russians are the ones that started the war in any case.
Even if you have strong reservations and opinions, pls keep it to yourself so you dont spoil it for others. I believe the consequences of taking sides is more dire than being neutral. Africans and thier leaders have to be smart and circumspect in foreign relations.
If US and her allies begins sanctions and start revoking all benefits to the African citizens for the open rebellion they'll be the ones shouting Racism n shit.
It even amazes me the Africans like despots and dictators. When it comes to war, you can't actually be neutral as inaction is action. If South Africa decides to side with other world powers aside your beloved America, it's their choice. You are not more knowledgeable in politics than their president. Ask yourself, how important has USA and it's allies been to nigeria compared to a country like China for example, an ally of Russia? We can't even buy America's products, they are too expensive even before our naira became shit. Let them sanction us for having an opinion and we will dish their dollar for yuan! If you know your history, you know who the dictators are. |
