They're indeed dark-skinned but they share more genetically with the dravidians & other Asians in general than they do with African blacks.

Fyi[b], Dravidians, Tamils are linguistically Niger Congo speakers. [/b] They can communicate DIRECTLY with the Cameroonian (NOT LIBERIAN!) Bassa tribe and the Yunu Manj aborigines in the Arafura swamp.

FieldMarshall06:


Sure, we need many IFVs with 22-30mm cannons, like the BMP 2 variant is armed with a 30mm cannon. You are right, just as I am, that those would be useful in defeating boko haram.

But the army is looking far ahead. If we arm these IFVs with 30mm guns. What happens when boko haram ends, and we face a real army.

So, obviously while you are correct about the 23-30mm guns in defeating boko haram. We must look beyond that. We need IFV that can fight real armoured vehicles in real war scenarios. Boko haram would come and go. But inferior IFVs would remain in the armoury.

Modular construction! The turret can be changed for say a 23-4 to fight BT techs at standoff distance or 105 mm for serious peer 2 peer AT engagement. If the basic 8x8 chassis is strong enough its easy-look at the Saffa Badger based on the Finnish Patria.

Badger will be equipped with Modular Combat Turret (MCT) system integrating weapon modules such as 30mm externally-driven cam-operated cannon, a 60mm breech-loading long-range mortar, a 12.7mm machine gun or the anti-tank missile system. The MCT system is developed for five Badger versions.

You save money by changing the turret instead of new platforms. It was based off an extremely interesting double barrelled direct fire capable 120 mortar.

I don't disagree with u at all , racism is a very big issue.

The police who killed the guy was a habitual racist . Inspite of that he was retained in service is proof of tolerance of racism , especially at govt level.

My point is different

Based on my real life experience on the same where the situation is more or less same .

There is no point of protesting if one cannot drive home the point and losses the narrative midway.

When I said the protests were hijacked it does not literally mean that the protestors r being remotely controlled.

Let me give an example

In Libya similar protests started due to discrimination , but in the end what happened ?
The protests were hijacked to turn it into a civil war . Who won ? neither parties . They ended loosing everything for naught.

Get my point

What the end game is in this case , I don't know for surety ( or maybe I do ) but IMO the African Americans lost the plot . It was a good opportunity to force the government to bring about systemic changes which actually addresses the problems of racism.

But now the spotlight has shifted onto the " riots looting and killings " do u agree or not ?





INVESTIGATE.EVERYTHING! The murderer isn't the same as Officer Chauvin-his face is longer and more oval. Are those photos the same guy? Yes, I know what US cops regularly do to Blacks and their involvement in crimes from the private prison industry to organ theft and the drug trade but imo this a DEMOCRAT PSYOP! They're desperate and scared knowing Trump has already won 2020 and this type of drama is the only trick in their playbook.

Edit: THIS!THIS!THIS! What has a half century of protests,sit ins and boycotts brought? Fcvk all! In a nutshell its time for BAs to collectively reexamine and recalibrate their sociopolitical processes and leaders,the overwhelming majority of whom are compromised.

Don't have any information on that. I am very skeptical that Kenya can field a marine expeditionary force any time soon , that would be a waste of resources. Let them focus on the basics first i.e better training, communication gear, surveillance assets and acquiring naval assets.

Ofc,its a work in progress. Fyi,the Army specops unit was first stood up around 1999: a coy that later became the nucleus of the spec ops units was observing the Tutsi mass murders in Kisangani. Over a decade later the 40 Specops bn and RSF were stood up from most of those same individuals forming the first intake. Give the KMEF another 5 years or more with coronadrama funding challenges.

Tried to post a pic of a Saffa made 5 axis CNC machine that enables rapid precision manufacture of everything from firearms, missile components, aerospace parts and surgical implements and got banned!
Btw, our own National Numerical Machining Complex was meant to go this route when they began in the late 80s. Nowadays they're just doing mere consultancy and rehab for gov projects.

How Gen Wesley Clark nearly started WW4 in Kosovo 1999!

Brit Gen Sir Mike Jackson,first pic was ordered by his boss,NATO supremo Wesley Clark to block an unexpected landing or Russian paras in Pristina after the 1999 air war and invasion for alleged Serb war crimes.

Nato supreme commander General Wesley Clark is not being allowed to fade away quietly. Days after the Clinton administration relieved him of his command two months early, Newsweek is reporting that the victor of Kosovo was blocked from sending paratroopers to Pristina airport to pre-empt an unexpected Russian advance.
Lieutenant-general Sir Michael Jackson overruled General Clark because the British commander did not want to spark a clash with the Russians.

"I'm not going to start Third World War for you," General Jackson told the US commander, according to Newsweek. In the hours that followed General Clark's order, both men sought political backing for their position, but only General Jackson received it.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/1999/aug/02/balkans3

Many didn't realise how that typically hubristic US position could've escalated dramatically. Both Serbs and Russians are Slavic and Eastern Orthodox not Catholic sharing much history including the terrible times of WW2. Also both had been robbed blind of their natural resources by the Anglo Zionist neo liberals and buccaneering fellow travellers at rigged auctions. Kosovo contains trillions worth of gold,cadmium,zinc and lead. In fact,HAIYYA!? Kosovo is a mini Euro DRC!

Kosovo is especially rich in coal, being aligned among European countries as the third with the largest coal reserves.[6] Kosovo possesses around 14,700 billion tons of lignite in reserves, which aligns Kosovo as the country with the fifth largest lignite reserves in the world.[5][7][8]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_resources_of_Kosovo

Anyway there were no Serb mass murders of Kosovars-it was the other way round! Anyway,we all come very close to a very real shooting war due to the usual Anglo Zionist playbook for instigating war: the perps are the victims and vice versa and the battlefield more often than not contains a huge array of minerals. At least Clark,reputed to be of high IQ from West Point days lost Pentagon support over this ishyt!

Says the dude that believes in Unicorns, reptilians, Hilary Clinton clones, Black Nazis ect ect grin grin grin grin

Why do you never give a straight answer!? Dude,while comparing the qualitative CBVs of different CB govs is critical in showing Jewish Gil Marcus should never even have been within shouting distance of the SARB I'm not going to waste time on redundant exchanges. Lets compare with a few other govs.

Erbolat Dosaev of Kazakhstan:
In the late 1990s Dosaev served as First Deputy Minister of Energy, Industry and Trade.[6] In 1998, Dosaev worked as an advisor to the prime minister. As of 2000, Dosaev was serving as deputy finance minister.[7] In 2001, Dosaev became chairman of the board of the Development Bank of Kazakhstan. As of November 2002, Dosayev served as chairman of Kazakhstan's anti-trust agency.[8][9]

Finance minister
In June 2003, Dosaev was appointed finance minister by Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev.[1][10] During his time as finance minister Dosaev also held positions with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the board of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan...Economic affairs minister
Dossaev was appointed to head the economic development ministry in September 2012.[17]

As the minister of economic affairs, Dosaev oversaw a project to expand the production capacity of TengizChevroi (TCO), Kazakhstan's largest oil producer. In late December 2015, Dosaev informed the parliament that he expected the project to cost US$30 billion. Officials had announced early the same year that they were working with TCO to lower the cost from an estimated US$38 billion. The aim of the project is to increase oil production from 27 million tonnes in 2015 to 38 million tonnes by 2021.[5]

In late 2015, Dossaev announced numerous agricultural reforms including changes to farm subsidies, improved crop insurance, and the introduction of electronic receipts designed to make the grain industry more efficient and profitable. Dosaev said, “The agrarian sector should become one of the key drivers of future economic growth in Kazakhstan. Throughout 2016, drawing no the experience of Australia and Brazil … the main focus of the development of agriculture will be stimulated by the creation of infrastructure and the integration of new technologies.” His proposals were made amid an economic slowdown due to low oil prices; the government of Kazakhstan responded with measures designed to diversify the country's economy.[18]

Dosaev has advocated reducing government interference in the economy. In February 2016 he stated, "As concerns issues related to the state's large share in the economy: you know about this, the work on privatization and denationalization starts in March, and the goal set to us by the president is to reduce the government sector's presence in the economy to 15% by 2020. Therefore, the government, and also the national holdings and companies, are working today to prepare for privatization and denationalization."[19]

Dosaev resigned from his post as minister of economic affairs in early May 2016. Dosaev resigned after public protests against legislation that would have allowed foreigners to rent farm land for limited periods of time. Dossaev defended the legislation; he stated, “The new norms in the land code are indispensable and required, and correspond to international practice." President Nazarbayev also defended the legislation and said that the protests were driven by misinformation.[20]

Baiterek
Dosaev is the former chairman and CEO of Baiterek, a state-owned holding company specializing in banking and finance founded in 2013.[1] Baiterek was originally formed to fund large economic development projects but the company's portfolio was expanded significantly in order to cope with the economic problems associated with falling oil prices.[21][22][23] Dosaev was appointed head of Baiterek in May 2016 and succeeded Kuandyk Bishimbayev. As part of his work at Baiterek, Dosaev was appointed to chairman of the board of directors of KazExportGarant, a state owned export insurance firm.[24][25]

While serving as head of Baiterek, Dosaev attended an international economic forum in Beijing to discuss China's "One Belt, One Road" initiative in 2017. He held talks with the heads of large Chinese banks and other financial institutions. The talks resulted in numerous non-binding agreements and a joint venture between China Triumph International and Orda Glass to construct a sheet glass factory in the Kyzylorda region.[22]

Deputy prime minister
Dosaev was appointed deputy prime minister by President Nazarbayev on 29 August 2017. Askar Zhumagaliyev was also appointed deputy prime minister effective the same date. Prime Minister Bakytzhan Sagintayev presented both of the new deputy prime ministers to the cabinet shortly thereafter; these appointments brought the total number of deputy prime ministers to four. Dosaev's portfolio is a series of modernization efforts in important economic sectors.[26][27]

The National Bank of Kazakhstan
February 25, 2019 appointed Governor of the National Bank of Kazakhstan

Uganda:
He was forced to flee Uganda in 1972 after he gave a speech publicly criticizing the expulsion of Asians from the country by Idi Amin. He fled to England via Tanzania, and was able to finish his studies at Durham University, graduating with an upper-second in Economics and Politics.[4] In October 1974, he began his post-graduate studies at Balliol College, Oxford, before returning to East Africa. He entered the University of Dar es Salaam to lecture and conduct research while pursuing his doctorate in economics. In 2009, Nkumba University, a private university based in Nkumba near Entebbe, awarded him an honorary Doctor of Philosophy degree in recognition of his "great contribution towards the development of Uganda's financial sector".[5]Between the year 1979 and 1984, Tumusiime-Mutebile was appointed to several government positions in Uganda ranging from deputy principal secretary to the president at State House in 1979, to undersecretary in the ministry of planning in 1981 where he rose to senior economist and then chief economist in 1984. In 1992, he was appointed permanent secretary to the newly combined ministry of finance planning & economic development, a merger that he had advocated while working under Minister of Finance Gerald Ssendaula.[6]

He is the longest serving chief executive in the Bank of Uganda's history.[7] He is credited with many of the sound economic policies adopted by the Uganda government at the urging of the central bank during the 1990s and the first decade of the 2000s.[6][8]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmanuel_Tumusiime-Mutebile

Tz ex CB gov,kazikazi where are you at?
As a professor at the University of Dar es Salaam in the early 1980s, he led a series of seminars on the economic crisis Tanzania was facing. This work made important contributions to the economic reforms that were implemented in the second half of the 1980s by the second phase government. After this, he worked as a Lead Economist with the Macroeconomic Division of the World Bank for Eastern Africa from the Tanzania Country Office. In that assignment he was directly involved with President Benjamin Mkapa's reform program - a program that has contributed to over a decade of sustained economic growth in Tanzania. He is best known for his involvement in setting up and developing one of the most effective research and training networks in Africa, the African Economic Research Consortium.

He served first as its research director and later as its executive director. He received an honorary doctorate from the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) in the Hague in 1997 recognition of his contributions to Capacity Building and Research on Africa. Following his Ph.D. degree in economics from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, he taught economics and published widely on growth, adjustment, governance and trade.

If you did more research you would know she spent 4 years as dep finance minister and 5 years as dep governor of the sarb.... After that she had a very successful business career, her appointment to Governor of the Sarb was welcomed by economist..... So yeah her appointment as Governor of the Sarb was in fact welcomed by economist.

And considering between 2009 - 2014 was probably thee most difficult years in South African economics she did a pretty good job all things considered.

MEANINGLESS! Compare with a CB gov. Here is ours:
He entered the University of Nairobi in 1979, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics in 1983 and a Master of Arts in Economics in 1985. From 1987 until 1993, he studied at Yale University, graduating with a Doctor of Philosophy in economics.[1]

Career
Following his master's degree, he worked in Nairobi as a planning officer at the Kenyan Ministry of Planning from October 1985 until August 1987. Following his PhD studies, he worked as an economist at the Kenyan Ministry of Finance from March 1993 until December 1994.[1]

From April 1995 until October 2005, he worked at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington, D. C., first as an economist and later as a senior economist. From November 2005 until December 2006, he served as the IMF mission chief for Dominica. He then served as the deputy division chief, Finance Department, at the IMF, from December 2006 until December 2012, based in Washington, D. C. from December 2012 until June 2015, he served as advisor to the deputy managing director of the IMF.[1]

The playing-card image accords poorly with the modest and cultivated figure he presents. It also undervalues him in a corporate sense, for even though De Beers controls the marketing of an estimated 80 percent of the world's diamonds, that is far from being his whole hand. In South Africa, one can never forget gold: The mines run by the Anglo American Corporation[b] -which Mr. Oppenheimer, at 74, still controls, although he no longer sits on its board - account for a full 40 percent of the country's output (and therefore 25 percent of the non-Communist world's). Add in the mines in which his companies have sizable holdings without management, and these percentages soar.

He is also king of platinum, vanadium and uranium. Companies in his domain are leading producers of coal, steel, nonferrous metals, pulp and paper, automobiles, fruit, wine: You name it.

font=Lucida Sans Unicode][They have major banking, insurance and real-estate holdings. In all, it has been estimated, they account for roughly half the value of South Africa's exports and half the value of the shares traded on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. And that is only South Africa.
[/font]
[b]Anglo American is the leading corporate presence in Zimbabwe. De Beers runs the diamond mines of Namibia, Botswana, Tanzania and - very discreetly - Angola, whose Government regularly finds itself under South African military assault. (Even more discreetly, De Beers has an arrangement with Moscow, which markets most of the Soviet Union's diamonds through the corporation's London-based Central Selling Organization.) On paper, Anglo American's holdings in Zambia remain enormous, although the dividends that can be banked outside Zambia are meager.

Despite South Africa's exchange controls, the group has managed in recent years to build up large holdings in the United States and Canada through the Bermuda-based Minerals and Resources Corporation, known as Minorco, whose board includes such American business eminences as Citicorp's Walter B. Wriston and Lazard Freres' Felix Rohatyn. Forbes magazine claimed a few years ago that Minorco was the largest foreign investor in the United States. Anglo American modestly says Forbes's calculations were ridiculously inflated, but Minorco's lengthening list of interests includes coal in Appalachia, copper in Arizona, fertilizer in Iowa and investment banking on Wall Street through Salomon Brothers.

Nicky O and Putin. The latter made a Jewish woman with an Industrial Psych degree (via correspondence!) the SARB. Unfortunately Stoffie is so in denial he won't see how atrocious and hilarious the situation is! Here's Njoroge showing what a typical CB gov CV looks like.

Big societies need (or needed!) to coalesce around a myth, particularly in the past when societies grew to immense sizes for the first time. Still doesnt make religion or God or gods true. For most atheists I guess the question is whether the claim is true, not whether its necessary.



“The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.” R.D

He was a real very likely human like figure though very long lived. This excellent book raises fascinating questions. The Ark was obviously a TECHNICAL device while the dimensions of the purpose built Tabernacle indicate the Yawheh was at least 12 feet tall.

Very specific dimensions of the Holy of Holies where the Yawheh lived with the Ark are given-15x15x15. Its surmised and I agree it was due to his height.

You're just an idiot who thinks being an atheist is cover for your mediocrity. I was an atheist from the age of 10yrs. It takes VERY LITTLE intelligence to know that religion is HOGWASH. These are stone-age ideologies.

Let me just say belief in a higher being is critical for human societies. Someone once said "if we had no gods we'd have invented them."
The problem is when you see what these religious leaders did-OMFG!?
Yawheh of the OT was actually a TITLE: he was a murderous mofo! Ever read how many mass murders he directly ordered?

Now go and attack Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not: but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling…” 1 Samuel 15:3

*”And we utterly destroyed them as we did unto Sihon King of Hesbon, utterly destroying the men, women and children, of every city.” Deuteronomy 3:6.

*”Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.” Psalm 137:9

I rmbr asking demanding an explanation from our F2 CRE teacher and being fobbed off with BS about "contemporary ethics and the need for relevant interpretation" IIRC.

Then there was the Abraham story Christians mindlessly bleat joyfully about. "Nigga, sacrifice your son."

"Ok. When and where?" HE WAS GOING TO DO IT!? What the actual fvck!?

Anyway that particular Yawheh would have been in the secure mental treatment facility of a normal nation. Looking at the bible later made me realise either it's complete BS or the one we worship ISN'T WHO WE THINK. Over the years I've increasingly come to suspect the latter.
As for the other dude in early Saudi the nicest description of acute schizophrenia is the most obvious.

Kigali is an impressive city. I have visited it severally and every year It's getting better and better. If Africans could copy a leaf from it - and we would be somewhere. The only problem is Kagame has criminalized informal trading - so no hawking and all tat.

Dude do you want the long story on my MANY problems with the Tutsi? I was working on it last night and seem to have deleted it somehow. Aarrghhh!
Its long with pix, links and sources and appears unbelievable, inexplicable, shocking and occasionally pornographic.
Let me know.

40% agricluture - see that is how rigged GDP starts - so you're saying you've 200B dollar agriculture - and yet no Nigeria ship has been seen selling food - and you're importing basically everything. 200B agri gdp would put you ahead of China.

At times I want to desist from this-its like teasing special needs kids. AFTER ALL THIS TIME THESE DUSTY DUDES HAVEN'T LET GO OF THEIR AGRI SECTOR BS!? But then I read the endless river of Naij lies coupled with the arrogance and continue to dropkick them with the truth!

Lol I am so posting it again...show us something like this if your tourism country has what it takes to lift a finger against our most especially when critical infastructure for tourism like this is absolutely non existent in your zoo..

Responding to redundant tediousness is like talking to a tree! Nigga, there's thousands of SUPERIOR KENYAN TOURIST INFRASTRUCTURE POSTED HERE.
Why would I repost anymore Mara, Tsavo, Diani pix etc, etc for you the head nutcase in here, srsly?

This is Athi River - Great Wall - there is Chinese who has invested lots of money there. Nairobi Metro once it's completely build will mean Nairobi has overtaken Gauteng. I give it another 10yrs - for Nairobi to stretch to most parts of Kiambu, Machakos, Kajiado and even Muranga - and Makueni. Nairobi will have radius of nearly 100kms son - also Nakuru - with Naivasha Dry port and Industrial Park will be in play soon. Which is why we need a serious metro line - that will radiate 60-100kms from the city.

I heard the route was suffered back in 2013 but State House self centeredness failed to prioritize the project. It should've begun by now-Thika to Nairobi SHOULD have been at least half way built by now. Let me consult someone.

O/T, yes but dammmn! Just saw Heat again; the best bank robbery film ever-den of thieves tried but the H is the GOAT!
It came out in 95 and it was engrossing watching Pacino hunting de Niro and his gang not only DID I NOT wet my finger on my Kamba date I DIDN'T regret it!

It wasn't just the top calibre acting and directing but the realism. Over 90% of folk shooting is so fake it ain't funny: no ejected brass, no reloading,gun shots sounding like air guns etc, etc you must deliberately suspend disbelief.

Anyway around the middle is the greatest ever shootout in film.

The realism shines through and you see how they were trained for 3 months. After this scene the packed cinema was spellbound jaws open. It made an excellent movie even better.

I saw it again a week later and STILL didn't wet my finger and again regretted nothing.

Einstein was not speaking until he was 4 or 5yrs. This could be child abuse. I remember in 90s in Kenya - we had a parent teach a kid medicine - and that kid ended up a sad under-achieving adult. Rarely do these child progenies pushed on by ambitious parents ever achieve anything.

Don't force the kid to cram nonsense - let the kid grow.

Found him - he is now just a record officer.

His story is of the dangers of parents putting a lot of pressure on their children and living their own dreams through them.

I still rmbr the interview he gave as a 9 yr old. I recall him reading notes while lecturing and wondering "ok, little nigga, where's the brainpower we've heard so much about?"
I've observed though those height dudes who pass every exam throughout their academic career do better than most but not as well as you'd think.
A guy I know who regularly hit 90% in MATH and sciences is now heading the adjustment dept of a large London insurer another dude was a whisker away from his phd researching evolution studying L Turkana fish and is now a lecturer on the US East Coast.

Thinking back the average dudes with more wisdom are doing better now moneywise.

I see it as our civic duty to try to educatre them nonetheless.

Yes. A decent man is duty bound to prevent someone stumbling into a minefield: but it does get tiring.

Read this.....review. Lipstick on a pig. Try to understand basic of tourism first.

We drove from Calabar to Ubudu. That ride was long but pretty interesting nontheless! Once you enter Obudu you will be enchanted by its majestic view! But the Resort/hotel is quite expensive and it really is not worth it! Food was OK but really overpriced! Exhausted and couldn't wait to rest, we ignored the hefty price and booked sort of a family room. But my dream of an early rest and a peaceful sleep was shattered the moment i lay down on my bed - it smelled of URINE! yes URINE! We called the reception/housekeeping but there was no one answering so I had to call the cell number of the person in charge of housekeeping and he informed me he was already off! He told me he will inform the hotel himself ... I waited 30 minutes and no one came... So i finally had to g out of the cottage (in a cold Ubudu evening) walked towards the restaurant to inform someone! FInally after perhaps more than an hour of waiting ... someone came to change the sheets but it was still smelly so we requested to be moved somewhere else. To make matters worst, they did not have any electricity and we had to move our things in the dark using my cellphone light! What a disappointing trip!

Beautiful location, terrible hotel
The location is beautiful but the access is difficult. The hotel is in a shameful state of disrepair. The food is expensive and very bad. Though there is a cattle ranch in the area there is no fresh milk for breakfast and the meat served in the restaurant is hard and dry. We asked for a barbecue and after waiting for ages we were served burnt pieces of goat. The service is so unbelievably bad that they could not bother to put soap and toilet paper in the restaurant toilets. But they know how to charge a hefty price!

Spare yourself the trouble and the money and travel to Cameroon or to East or South Africa.


Ohh,Naij! This is THE Obodu you've been posting for 4 years-HAHAHA!? Anyway IIRC I did say your hospitality standard,your infrastructure, the level of your training eg, front office, house keeping, cuisine etc, etc is still miles from our own GLOBAL standard.
IN THE NAME OF CHUKWU AND OSHUN NEVER POST THESE DULL OBODU PIX AGAIN.
