valentineuwakwe:Hostile wetin? Iran is only hostile to the western imperialists you support as their boy boy. Iran is not hostile to Russia or Africa or China or India. CNN has programmed you to think that a nation opposing America is opposing 'the world'. Little pawn in their manipulation |
Putin can end all life on Earth by pressing 1 button inside this briefcase. ![]() https://i.pinimg.com/736x/1c/d7/66/1cd766b3f36cc603457e7ccd2a9e38d0.jpg ![]() |
^^^This one is still speaking grammar. Oga, Putin doesn't understand English. Reuters also carrying the news. Putin Warns Trump: ''Do Not Touch Iran'' https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/russia-warns-us-not-help-israel-militarily-against-iran-2025-06-18/?utm_source=chatgpt.com |
Myrepublic:Of course Putin knows that he's not the only one with nukes. But Putin is a KGB hard nut. He's prepared to die in a nuclear war to defend Russia and the world from US and western tyranny. Are Trump and the western world (plus you, Mr Trump supporter) prepared to burn or melt in a Nuclear cataclysm and Nuclear Radiation as well? Then let's go! That's what Putin is saying. That una madness go end with Vladimir Putin. |
franchasofficia:Russia has more nuclear warheads than America. She can turn America into a parking lot in 2 seconds, with Trump inside. What part of that don't you understand? |
Dtribeless:Onukwu. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14824915/amp/Putin-wades-Russia-warns-Trump-against-bombing-Iran-says-Israel-millimetres-away-sparking-nuclear-catastrophe-airstrikes-Trump-considers-US-military-attack.html |
American commentator says ''War with Iran will End America'' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWARAeXT4MU |
bdon123:You're using Ukraine to console yourself. Russia will never nuke Ukraine, which it sees as Russian territory. Russia is a major ally - military and economic - with Iran, with billions of dollars worth of investments in Iran. Just this January, Iran and Russia signed a 'strategic alliance'. Russia will not sit idly by and watch America crush Iran. Putin has warned them. You think Trump should disobey him? You don't like your life, I swear. |
Noblechykk:Does your little head understand that the world is in danger of nuclear catastrophe? Nuclear sites are being Bombed as we speak, with nuclear powers looking on, each with their own interests that could clash. Then what? Why does that not concern you? Do you think you are immune from nuclear cataclysm? |
Thegoodone13:See all the false nonsense in this one’s head. He thinks Iran is the one sponsoring Boko Haram. He doesn’t know it’s Qatar, UAE, Saudi, Bahrain and other gulf allies of the US whom Iran opposes, that are sponsoring the terrorists in the Sahel. I wonder if he remembers the recent US Congress session where it was revealed that USAID was funding Boko Haram. Nation of the bamboozled. |
helinues:How old are you? Can’t you see you the potential of this spiralling into something you have never seen in your life? Nuclear war? Every human being on Earth should be extremely concerned with what is going on in the Middle East. Do you know China and Russia have major interests in Iran? Do you know that Russia has a bigger nuclear arsenal than America? Why are you people so shallow? You don’t think beyond your noses. |
Slytiger:Very good thinking. They say that at immigration points, border points, etc, that US officers will seize your phone and be checking it for any anti-trump content or messaging, and if any is seen, No Entry for you. That country is gone. It's just a question of how fast it will go down. 5 million Americans stormed the streets last week to demand the removal of trump from office - the largest protests ever held in US history. |
The airports in Florida and elsewhere in America are usually crowded with tourists from all over the world at this time of year - Summertime - who come to visit Disneyworld and other famous attractions. Yet see the airport today. Not just sparse. Totally empty. America is finished. ''There was a country..'' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSre2gwT3lg |
Slytiger:That's not how it works. Russia can nuke Israel and end it all in 5 minutes. Do you know Russia has more nukes than America? |
lecowas:The Almighty God is the Only Supreme Leader of the world, not your power-crazed, lunatic white master Trump. And He will teach you and him that truth. |
Many Nigerians don't know how powerful Iran is. Do you people know that Iran has several underground cities? They are up to 300 metres below the ground. Think 100 metres race distance. Times 3. Undergound. Full cities with roads, cars, buses, banks, hotels, military bases, houses where people live. They've been planning for this confrontation for decades. They will not be the walkover people think. And something makes me suspect they actually have a secret nuclear weapon. And that they might have a secret plan to strike the USA with it. |
Amitex:What is yours? How can a sovereign state come out and vow to obliterate another sovereign state?Inflammatory rhetoric alone — even calling for a state’s destruction — is not sufficient justification under international law to invade or bomb another sovereign country. There must be imminent, provable threat and a proportional, necessary response. Why would Iran be sponsoring Hamas territory, Hezbollah terrorists, Syrian Abbas backed ISIS, Houthis terrorists?That's like asking why your family should run to your assistance when they see you being attacked by armed robbers. Is Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, UAE, Egypt, Kuwait, Oman, Turkey, etc not Islamic countries? Why would Iran now take it upon itself to destroy Israel?Iran champions a pan-Islamic “Axis of Resistance” — uniting groups opposed to Western influence and Israel, regardless of sect: She Supports Hezbollah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad, Houthis, Assad regime, etc. By backing Gaza, Iran positions itself as the vanguard of Muslim resistance to Israel and the U.S. Iran is the giant of the Middle East. They don't want uncontrolled western influence over their region like you have in Africa. Na by force? Instead of hating them for insisting on true independence, worry about your own continent, where there are still some places black people are not allowed to enter, like Orania in South Africa. For your information, those of us supporting Israel do so because our Holy Bible commands us to do so. So face your front and leave those of us who are "idiots" to revel in our idiocy. I know your next line will be to tell me that Israel population has only 1% Christians, we know that and Jesus told us so, but also promised the Messiah will enter Jerusalem through the Easter gate that Ottoman emirate blocked in fulfillment of scriptures.And Jesus told you to commit genocide against the Palestinians and engage in the unprovoked invasion and bombing of innocent populations in Iran? Please, Matthew Chapter what is that? But here are 3 Christian chapters I remember. Especially for you: Matthew Chapter 26, Verse 52 ''Put your sword back in its place.” Matthew Chapter 3, Verse 10 “Blessed are the meek… the Peacemakers… those who hunger and thirst for Righteousness.” Matthew Chapter 7, Verse 21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." |
brain54:Foreign imported religion is the worst thing that has ever happened to Nigeria. It has turned our people to beasts - becoming terrorists, bandits, and kidnappers with no conscience, supporting genocide, supporting unprovoked military attacks against whole nations. Even the prevalence of corruption can be traced to these imported faiths which stress ''forgiveness'' over accountability. Even if you steal $10 billion, no wahala. Accept 'Jesus', and all is forgiven. Same thing with Islam. Loot any amount. Just make sure you go to Mecca on Hajj once or twice, and you're good. In our African religion, there is nothing like forgiveness. You commit, you pay. We need to go back, repackage and rebrand it, build temples again, and create a Real Moral system, with in-built accountability systems, not this imported rubbish. |
Most folks here support the illegal invasion and attack of Iran by Israel. Why? Because you are a people with your heads upside down, hating your friends and worshipping your enemies. What has Iran ever done to Nigeria? Do you think Iran is connected to Boko Haram? You don't know it's Qatar, Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain - US allies, sponsoring all those terrorist groups? Iran's enemies? Did the US House of Assembly not discuss recently how USAID was funding Boko Haram? Show me one thing remotely connecting Iran to any problem in Nigeria. Nothing. You people are lost. You know nothing about this world. Iran is probably the last thing holding up against these dirty imperialists, who smile to your face while sponsoring their terrorists against you behind your back. You need to grow past the kindergarten ''all muslims are terrorists'' ideology, and understand that there are Factions within that religion. The Faction sponsoring terrorism in Nigeria are US-backed Sunni gulf states. Those are the islamic countries you should despise - UAE, Saudi, Qatar, Bahrain. They are the ones sponsoring terrorism in the Sahel, on behalf of their western puppet masters. Not Iran. But they are very rich US allies, so instead, you tour there to enjoy 'Dubai', and take pictures, smiling. Hamas, Hezbollah, have a big fat Nothing to do with you or Nigeria. They are resistance groups set up to fight the theft of their land by so-called 'Jews' who invaded them from Europe and stole their land. Iran backs them, and rightfully so. They have Zero to do with you. So again? Why do you hate Iran? What has Iran ever done wrong to Nigeria or Africa? |
KaLuCh:Hamas and Hezbollah have nothing to do with You in Nigeria. They are fighting the occupation of their land by Thieves from Europe who Falsely call themselves 'Jews'. The Boko Haram terrorists are sponsored, not by Iran, but by Iran's enemies, the USA and its gulf allies like Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Those are the nations destabilizing the Sahel region- not Iran. USAID was recently found to be sponsoring Boko Haram directly. Wanna see the US Congress session? |
KaLuCh:If Iran is destroyed, expect even more terrorism from the western-sponsored terrorist groups like Boko Haram,. |
Empresa:Iran has Zero links to terrorism in Nigeria. The US National Assembly discovered that USAID was funding Boko Haram. You are a lost people, and you have no clue who your real enemies are. |
Terver2025:The same northerners that allow 15 million Igbos to reside peacefully in the north, trading, and making money, building houses etc, are the same north you say are filled with so much 'hate' for you. Why haven't they expelled you from their lands the way Trump is expelling black and brown people like you from America, while bringing in ''oppressed'' white South Africans? Go and send even 1,000 Igbos to your beloved 'Israel' and see if they will accept them. Mr ''I stand with Israel'. You are a people with your heads upside down, hating your brothers and worshipping your enemies. What has Iran ever done wrong to Nigeria? Do you think Iran is connected to Boko Haram? You don't know it's Qatar, Saudi, Bahrain - US allies, sponsoring all those terrorist groups? Did the US House of Assembly not discuss recently how USAID was funding Boko Haram? You people are lost. You know nothing about this world. |
ImoleNaija:No. The world is not safe with nuclear weapons on in the hands of psychopathic mass murderers like war criminal Netanyahu and convicted criminal, Trump. Programmed people supporting monsters, and warmongering crooks. |
I then asked AI: 'Name me 10 things Nigeria can learn from the Mali Empire'. AI Response: ........... Here are 10 key lessons Nigeria can learn from the Mali Empire, especially in the context of governance, unity, and sustainable development: 1. Decentralized but Accountable Governance Mali used a federal structure with local governors (Farbas) who maintained loyalty to the central Mansa. Nigeria can strengthen its federal system by ensuring local governments have autonomy with accountability, rather than bloated central control or unchecked local corruption. 2. Codified Indigenous Law and Custom The Kurukan Fuga Charter was an African constitution based on justice, human dignity, and communal rights. Nigeria can revive and codify indigenous legal traditions to complement the current system, making justice more accessible and culturally grounded. 3. Strategic Control of Trade Routes Mali became rich by protecting and taxing trade routes. Nigeria can better manage its infrastructure corridors, ports, and inter-state highways, ensuring secure logistics and internal trade between regions. 4. Integration of Spiritual and Civic Life Mali’s leaders balanced religion and governance, often using Islamic principles to foster discipline and diplomacy while respecting traditional practices. Nigeria can promote interfaith respect and ethical leadership rooted in indigenous and religious values, rather than divisive identity politics. 5. Investment in Knowledge Centers Timbuktu was a beacon of learning, attracting scholars from all over Africa and beyond. Nigeria can emulate this by investing in research hubs, indigenous knowledge systems, and universities, particularly in underserved regions. 6. Merit-Based Leadership and Delegation Sundiata Keita appointed competent family members and advisors based on skill, not just bloodline. Nigeria can adopt a meritocratic approach in political appointments and reduce patronage-based politics. 7. Cultural and Linguistic Unity in Diversity Despite its vastness, Mali promoted a unifying cultural identity (e.g., Mandé language and customs) while respecting local traditions. Nigeria can build a stronger national identity that transcends ethnic and regional lines by promoting shared values and history. 8. Sustainable Resource Management Mali managed its gold mines and land resources without environmental collapse. Nigeria must learn to balance resource extraction (oil, solid minerals, agriculture) with long-term sustainability and community benefit. 9. Diplomatic Soft Power Mansa Musa used diplomacy, gifts, and reputation to position Mali globally. Nigeria should strengthen its foreign policy, cultural exports, and diplomatic presence in Africa and beyond—not just militarily, but culturally and intellectually. 10. Community-Centered Governance The Mali Empire valued the community’s voice through councils of elders and griots (oral historians). Nigeria can revive community forums, traditional leadership roles, and public consultation, especially in resolving local conflicts and fostering development. The Mali Empire proves that African nations have a homegrown legacy of governance excellence. For Nigeria, tapping into that legacy can inspire reforms that are not only modern—but deeply rooted in Africa's own genius. - AI |
- AI Analysis of the Great Mali Empire - ................ The Governing Genius of the Mali Empire: An African Model of Administration The Mali Empire, rising to prominence in the 13th century and enduring until the late 16th century, stands as one of the greatest examples of African political and administrative genius. Stretching at its height across more than 1.2 million square kilometers—from the Atlantic coast through present-day Senegal, Mali, Gambia, Guinea, and parts of Niger and Nigeria—it was a testament to the capacity of African civilizations to organize vast, multicultural territories under stable and effective governance. Founded by Sundiata Keita after the defeat of the Sosso king Sumanguru in 1235 CE, Mali’s foundation myth itself is steeped in the values of strategic unity, justice, and cultural pride. The Charter of Kurukan Fuga—proclaimed after Sundiata’s victory—is one of the world’s oldest known Constitutions [and several centuries older than the US Constitution]. It laid down rules for civil liberty, environmental protection, and governance long before similar charters appeared in Europe. This charter reveals the administrative sophistication of Mali: a federation of semi-autonomous provinces with strong central oversight, codified responsibilities, and systems to ensure accountability. At the heart of Mali’s genius was its layered structure of governance. The emperor, or Mansa, was advised by a council of elders, generals, spiritual leaders, and economists. The empire was divided into provinces led by governors known as Farbas, often members of the royal family, ensuring loyalty and competence. These Farbas governed with autonomy but were required to report regularly and collect taxes for the central authority. This decentralization with a strong imperial center enabled the Mali Empire to manage its vast and ethnically diverse territories with remarkable cohesion. Mali’s administrative brilliance also manifested in its control of trade. The empire’s wealth was not just in gold, but in its ability to regulate and protect trade routes that spanned the Sahara and connected West Africa with North Africa and the Middle East. By taxing goods, ensuring safe passage, and standardizing weights and measures, Mali became an economic powerhouse. Cities like Timbuktu, Djenne, and Gao thrived not just as trade hubs but as centers of knowledge and governance, with scribes and administrators trained in complex systems of record-keeping, law, and diplomacy. Under Mansa Musa, perhaps Mali’s most legendary ruler, the empire’s global prestige peaked. His 1324 pilgrimage to Mecca—accompanied by thousands and laden with gold—was not just a religious journey but a diplomatic statement of African wealth, literacy, and order. The construction of mosques, universities, and administrative buildings on his return further underscored Mali’s governing vision: one that harmonized spiritual, economic, and political life. The Mali Empire’s endurance—lasting nearly 400 years—was not by accident. It was the result of an African system rooted in consensus-building, strategic delegation, cultural respect, and legal foresight. In a world that often forgets Africa’s contributions to statecraft, the Mali Empire stands as irrefutable proof of the continent’s administrative genius, long before colonial contact. Its legacy remains a source of pride and a template for what indigenous African governance once achieved. - AI |
