Travel › Re: I Returned To Nigeria After 5 Years In The UK - Everyone Thought I Was Not Ok by maasoap(m): 1:11pm On Jun 24
Kaczynski:
You’re telling me you swapped a UK salary for a Lagos logistics business and cleared more in naira? Either your math is as shaky as Nigeria’s power grid
You disagreed that running logistic business in Lagos state can't bring income as much as average salary in UK? Hehe!


or you’re running a glorified okada operation.
Is that not something to be proud of if it fetches you daily income? You start with okadas doesn't mean you can't end up with with trucks? I started with okadas back in the days, I later ended up with four wheelers. You're myopic

So the UK made you a robot and Lagos made you alive? Priorities, my guy.
Your priority or Op's priority?

You’re not building something meaningful. You’re running a glorified okada service with a fancy title.
I pray it won't be too late before you realise that you need to change this mindset/mentality.

You came back because you couldn’t hack it abroad and now you’re selling it as a choice. Weak.
You're projecting your failures, wrong life choices and insecurity on him, dude. You're masking your own battle here.

Spare me the redemption arc. Just admit you missed the suffering.
Should he have chosen to die abroad?

Ifeoluwadev:
5. OPPORTUNITY IN NIGERIA IS UNDERRATED
This will be controversial, I know.

But hear me out. Nigeria is hard. The infrastructure is a disaster. Fuel prices are criminal. The government is not your friend.

AND YET, for someone with skill, international exposure, savings, and the willingness to grind, Nigeria rewards you in ways that a saturated Western economy cannot. The competition is not as fierce at the top. The gaps in the market are enormous.

I identified a logistics gap in my area. Started small. Now I have 6 staff and three vehicles. I am building something. In the UK I was building someone else's dream.

THE HONEST DOWNSIDES, I WON'T LIE TO YOU

Light situation is still a spiritual attack. Generator fuel is expensive. The roads want to kill me daily. Some things that should take 30 minutes take 3 days because of bureaucracy. I sometimes miss the simple efficiency of abroad. Ordering something and it actually arrives. Bills that just work.
No controversy whatsoever. If anyone wants to disagree with you or argue, just ask them why Lebanese, Koreans, Chinese and Indians are trooping to Nigeria to establish businesses?

Car Talk › Re: My Sad Experience With VIO Officers by maasoap(m):
zeenaman:
I had a very unpleasant experience with VIO officials yesterday, one that rendered me helpless and cheated. It's been 24 hours since the incident, but I'm still seething, not just for the money they extorted me of, but for the vulnerability of ordinary Nigerians in the hands of state-empowered irrational people in uniforms, and in some instances, with guns.

I had a very important place to visit, and was already running late. These guys stopped me, asked for all vehicle documents, which I presented to them. Determined to find a fault, and capitalise on it to extort me, they said the temporary driver's license I was holding was unstamped. The same licence I paid for in full since last year February, and they are yet to schedule me for capturing. Whose fault was it that I've not been captured? I applied for the licence in a government's licencing office, where it should have been stamped according. Why should I bear the brunts?

They made me lose my appointment, deprived me of an opportunity, forced me to their office and extorted me. They insisted I pay in cash, at that point, I knew it was a pure robbery, and unfortunately, I could do nothing against a state-weaponised extortionists.

We can't continue like this as a people, this system is corrupt at all levels, no accountability anywhere.
You should have stood your ground since you know that the paper with you is authentic, signed or not. Did they carry guns?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Trump Vs Obama: Which President's Iran Deal Was Better? by maasoap(m): 11:51am On Jun 24
basilico:
If Iran had obeyed the JPCOA agrreement, full compliance through Year 10 would have resulted in the following outcomes.
I don't think you known what you're saying by that statement if you are referring to the Trump's first term in office before he cancelled that agreement.
IAEA told Trump that Iran was complying with JPCOA. US intelligent services told Trump that Iran was complying. But Trump in his infinite wisdom and intelligence said no that agreement was in favour of Iran and he ripped it apart during his first term in office.
But if you are now saying referring to his second term in office, what kind of compliance did you expect again from Iran?
And before he started the bombing campaigns alongside Israel, his own US intelligent services told him that Iran wasn't weaponising their Uranium, IAEA said the same thing. But just the way he didn't listen to anyone during the first tenure, he refused to listen to anyone again during the second tenure until he was humbled

You don't abuse your power
Arrest him accordingly and charge him

Instead of beating him or torture
That is completely wrong

It seems like this one has forgot "I CAN'T BREATHE" incident which caused massive protests across USA. It wasn't only one case but the one that broke the camel's back. There are hundreds of it

So why is the police assaulting the man after tying him up?
Why are they kicking and stomping on his head like that?

There's no difference between what the man did to the woman and what the police did to him.
That's very unprofessional
Emotions are high my guy. That video is on another level of barbarity. So, it is perfectly understandable if police officers tap him

themanderon:
It's the law. It doesn't act on emotions but facts. If that foolish man gets a good lawyer, he might go Scott free or even get a softer sentence even though he deserves mob action for what he did, but the law is the law.
Based on what ground will a good lawyer convince the judge to make him walk away freely or with lighter sentence? He should just pray that his case is not assigned to a woman, only then you will know that emotions are sometimes involved in the law. This one that they are already mentioning attempted murder charge

josielewa:
In as much as the man is a brutal and hostile being, he should be charged accordingly. But I will always say we all are humans. Our temperament is different. As a man if you know you have high temper, please avoid anything that will make you start having a back and forth with a woman. A woman will nag, abuse you so bad a times you lose your cool and do the unthinkable. At that moment you can't control your anger until the deed has been done. Please for christ sake.

Once you notice your woman is looking for trouble, just avoid her by all means., even if possible leave the house for her and vice versa. It's better the man or the woman sleeps outside at a family's place than to end up in a prison. Be wise. No matter how cruel that woman has behaved towards you, nobody will want to hear your story, everyone will defend the woman instantly. So to avoid 'had I know'' just avoid the woman at that moment.

Women will test you brothers. They will test your patience., so just avoid trouble at all cost even if the situation will make you a fool or a loser...Be warned... Kirikiri or Kuje beans will not our portion o...
I have got a question to ask which the police should probably ask the guy who recorded the video: was the video recorded and uploaded to get justice for the victim (which I very much doubt) or just to flex or possibly mock her?
I mean, it is one thing to attack another human being with such brute force non stop, it is another thing to willingly record it on camera (not even CCTV) and it is entirely another thing to willingly upload the criminal evidence on the internet. It doesn't make sense

Because he didn't join the terrorists bombing innocent people across the globe, right, most especially Iranians. History will always remember him as the PM who refused to capitulate under the pressure to join the war without end, the war that needlessly put the world's economy at risk. You ever see any UK prime minister that wasn't pressured to resign

MrSly:
I don't know if there was any public verification that showed the lady had agreement with the guy to sponsor her in exchange for marrying the girl. But assuming that the girl had such agreement with the guy and finally broke the agreement, killing her is way and far too unacceptable. We have the court and in this matter I am sure with evidence the guy would win. There is no justification for taking another's life except when it is out of self defence.
How much is life and how much did he spend training her in school? Okay, after killing her has he recovered his money back? He has murder tendencies. I said it before and I want to repeat it; never give what you can't forfeit in relationship. He even killed, buried and demanded ₦3,000,000 ransom. That guy must rots in jail.
I don't defend murderers. But pretending like the victim didn't promise him marriage is like being insincere to oneself. This kind of arrangement has never ended well, I don't understand why men refuse to learn from others prior experiences

History still doesn’t inform you guys. You still cook your history out of emotions. There were moments in history where the west totally turned against Israel and even supported Jordan, Syria, Egypt and co with weapons against it.

Guess what?


Israel still prevailed!!

The amount of oil in the U.S Strategic Petroleum Reserve plunged last week to the lowest level since 1983 as the Trump administration continues to deploy emergency oil to minimize the damage from the war with Iran.

While it is affecting his outlook and that of his party. May be you don't get it, Iran said no peace deal if bombing of Lebanon doesn't stop but Trump needs the ceasefire badly at the moment.

You can't support murder, it is never right.

MrSly:
Never support the murder of anyone, except terrorists. Training someone in school doesn't mean you must marry her. If that is your condition make it open from the start. Don't just assume you are training her and therefore you must marry her. Don't give anything you cant forfeit in relationship.
Let's stop lying to ourselves, that was the agreement and very clear. If you are insinuating that terms and conditions were not made clear from the start, you are insincere. What that woman did is not new, that's why men are advised to stop sponsoring ladies education

I don’t blame all this Islamic lunatics claiming victory I blamed the biggest loud mouthed lunatic in White House who stupidly be begging devastated Iran for ceasefire. How I wish the White House lunatic allow Israel to do as they wish in Iran by now, there would ve been a regime change
What do you think Israel can do without the massive supports of USA? Do you realise how long Netanyahu had been pushing successive American presidents before Trump to help him wage war against Iran? If it was that easy, he wouldn't have waited for Trump to lead.
If USA ever withdraw her economic and military support for Israel, it will be a matter of time before Israel falls.
And talking of regime change, was not here the pictures of Iran leaders were posted where only two of the entire cabinet members remain? That shows there can never be any regime change. You guys don't know when to quit at all. Luckily, Trump is learning and waking up slowly cheesy

US blockaded Iran. Israel and US wasn't blockaded

Do with that info, whatever you want.
People around the world including America citizens who believe that Iran came out of this war stronger than they were before also knew all the facts you stated before they declared that Iran won. There is battle and there is war.
Perhaps Iran "lost the battle but won the war". You can look up this phrase to understand what it means.

Both USA and Israel dropped over 12,000 bombs on Iran, bombing everything and everyone including school kids
