Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Launches Missiles Towards Israel, Explosions Rock Israel (Photos) by MT: 11:28am On Feb 28
tctrills:
Iran only funds and supports terrorists that oppose Israel, eg Hezbollah and Hamas.

That's enough reason to destroy them. They are being attacked for supporting Hezbollah and Hamas.
You should ask yourself why Iran supports Hezbollah, Hamas and Yemenis,

Somebody's hero is another person's villain

It is a form of leverage to see allies fighting alongside them when fight comes, just like the US and israel leverage on nuclear weapons.

Do you see anything bad in Israel possessing nuclear weapon? Be fair in your judgement instead of supporting the destruction of another country. Iran can't be destroyed, the govt can be changed but the same fate that bedevils Iraq and Libya will be their portion - hotbed of terrorism

Do not just accept the narratives of the westerners. Have you asked yourself why the UK distance themselves from this military adventurism.

It is not fair and just.

I prefer to buy petrol at higher prices than for Iran to have nuclear weapons. Iran having nuclear weapons is same with ISIS having nuclear weapons, as well as all the terrorists groups affiliated to ISIS. The world will be in chaos. The current Iran regime is unreasonable, negotiations won't work, only a change in regime will put an end to this & that is what American is about to do. We have seen this played out in Libya & Iraq, it is not new.
I can bet when petrol prices rise at the pump station, you will be the first to shout Tinubu name.

"I guess people always forget that Christians are the minority in Israel. There are far more Muslims in Israel than Christians."
Why do you feel this has anything to do with what is going on? Why did you feel it is important to tell us this?
Because majority of Nigerians who are supporting this military adventures by the US and Israel feel they are supporting Israel as a Christian nation

No, Israelis are not largely Christians, and they do not believe in Jesus Christ as the Messiah. They only believe in the God of Isaac, Abraham and Moses as stated in the Torah.

Show me where in international treaties which the US largely established and supported for centuries is stated that one sovereign nation could change government in another sovereign nation.

It is so wrong.

Why would you compare iswap and Isis to Iran which is a sovereign nation. US put this government which you are condemning there in the 70s against the Shah government. Go and learn history.

Things don't go well between them and US suddenly hates them.

Israel has nuclear weapons. Iran would always go to the brink of possessing one - it is common sense.

I hate this Iranian govt more than you do but this military action should be condemned.

Most people supporting Isreal do so on the basis of religion.. They feel Israelis are largely Christians. That's not true. Israelis practise Judaism, and they hate Christians with passion. They see Christianity as an attempt to destroy the religion of their forefathers which is Judaism. Approximately 75% of Israelites practise Judaism (Jewish), 20% are Muslims, just 5% are Christians

This is not a matter of doing biddings
US & Israel are fighting for world peace & funny we don't even know. Iran having nuclear weapons is like allowing Boko haram & Iswap to possess nuclear weapons, they will abuse it & put the world in chaos. Iran cannot manage nuclear weapons without abusing it.
There can't be any world peace through this means.

The only country that every abused and used nuclear weapon in the history of the world is the United States. Why not fight for a world without nuclear weapons. Smaller countries would always want to have nuclear weapons to protect themselves against the bigger countries. You can't have and ask me not to have. You think Ukraine would not eventually, silently pursue nuclear weapons later?

Middle East will never be stable thorough this action.

Iran govt will go down eventually but what will play out remains anyone guess. That country will be an hotbed for terrorism. Why striking a country in the midst of negotiation?

You can't just be striking a country just because you can.

Iran is currently firing on US bases in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE and Qatar. Iran is not Venezuela. As US and Israel has multiple options to achieve victory so do Iran has multiple options to distrupt middle East and the entire world.

Do not start complaining once petrol prices rise in Nigeria at the filling station. It will reach everybody
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Launches Missiles Towards Israel, Explosions Rock Israel (Photos) by MT: 10:40am On Feb 28
No one should make this about Islam and Christianity.

This is a violation of international treaty

I am a Christian but another government aiming to change the government in another sovereign nation is a no no.

I guess people always forget that Christians are the minority in Israel. There are far more Muslims in Israel than Christians.

Like I said, US government supported this Iranian government to take over power from the Shah government. Things turned sour between them and the US suddenly hates them.

I hate the Iranian govt with passion but US has a knack for attacking nations not doing their biddings.

PoliticsRe: Opposition Shrinks As APC Expands Control To 30 States by MT: 1:06pm On Feb 27
reddingtonblack:
what is the rationale for winning state governors when they carry only one votes ... the scope behind winning governors over is just to Manipulate and capture inec structure in each state to rigg results

When they say Tinubu is a strategist, i agree Buh we must clarify the strategy is to bypass/illegality ..play dirty politic

When Tinubu say Snatch it, grab it, and run away with it ... In which context can " SNATCH" be a legal or responsible move
Let me ask u, when Obi was winning with extremely large margin in the south east, did he play clean?

You would be politcally naive to say a state Governor has only one vote without considering his sphere of influence. When a governor directs his followers to vote certain way, that's the way they will vote. Tinubu understands dynamics of politics and he focuses his attention on people with large influence.

You were accusing Tinubu of rigging, let us even accept your assumption. The question is - was the yes-daddy playing clean, especially in the south east.

The real tears would come when results from Kano-Kaduna and Katsina (KKK) will be announced, even Atiku and Obi would make the sign of the cross 😃😃

PoliticsRe: Opposition Shrinks As APC Expands Control To 30 States by MT: 10:49am On Feb 27
This is game over.

Tinubu is a boardroom and political tactician.

While the opposition focused on the social media, he was working at the grass roots and winning the allegiance of state governments.

The electoral result will be so embarrassing for Atiku and Peter Obi. Imagine the Governor of Atiku state doesn't even believe in their own illustrious son, and the same son expects the whole world to line up behind him.

See Obi too, the Governor of his state has rubbished him several times.

The victory of Tinubu is so assured.

OR Else, that election result is already written


Bola Tinubu will win all 36 States and he will give Nigerians the middle finger

Time to act is now, no more online rantings
You are advising them to protest to the same man who attempted to undermine election in his own country, the man who encouraged sedition.

For people in the know with reasonable sense, they trust the process. They know Nigeria is being gradually repositioned. They know Nigeria is being led differently from what we have been doing in the past.

They know we are getting there gradually like other nations which you love to compare Nigeria to.

PoliticsRe: Central Bank Stopped Naira From Appreciating To ₦1000/$ – Shetttima by MT: 8:13pm On Feb 25
DeLaRue:
It makes perfect sense.

A naira that rises too fast can be as damaging to the economy as one that falls too fast.

The secret to sustainable economic growth is stability. A slow but steady naira recovery is better.

If naira hits 1000 to a dollar too fast, Nigerian consumers will benefit hugely, but the biggest long term beneficiary will be China, as Nigerians will go back to importing everything under the sun from China. This will destroy our own manufacturing companies, and there will be tremendous job loses. Once cheap Chinese imports destroy our manufacturers, then we will effectively become an economic colony of China.

Remember too that if the naira rises too a sharply, the record levels of non-oil exports we have had in the past 2 years will disappear as our produce becomes more expensive for foreign buyers.

I suspect the CBN will prefer naira to steadily rise to say around N1200 by end of 2026, and N1000 by end of 2027.

But the CBN will be under tremendous political pressure from APC leaders to allow naira to gain fast later this year so APC can go into 2027 elections saying 'We told you so...Mr Tinubu is an economic genius. Vote for him to perform more magic'. smiley

It is what politicians all over the world do. Mr Trump has been trying to sack the American Central bank Governor for several months now because the Governor refused to cut interest rate as fast as Mr Trump wants.
People do not understand that a strong currency is a curse to the country that owns that currency.

No one wants to buy from such country - that is the problem facing the United States at the moment.
China devalues her currency because she wants to stimulate export.

“Treat Daddy as Your God” — UK Nigerian Mum, Kids Kneel in Emotional Video

A woman gathered her children to have a heartfelt conversation about their father’s sacrifices and struggles.

She recounted the many challenges the family has faced together over the years.

She explained that their father works 12 hours every day to provide for the household and ensure their well-being.

She revealed that during a period when the family was at risk of losing their legal permission to remain in the UK, he became deeply overwhelmed.

At his lowest point, he felt crushed by the pressure and was willing to sacrifice everything for his family.

The mother openly expressed profound appreciation for her husband’s resilience and dedication.

In a touching moment, she and the children knelt down together to thank their father for all he has done for the family.

Note: they have 4 biological kids. The oldest girl lives with them.
On a lighter note, that boy did not kneel down😁

If the woman really meant it, why asking someone to snap them when they were doing it. Intention was good but it seems like chasing clout now.

Things like this are done in the living room under a very serious atmosphere and not for social media - it negates the intently, if there was any .

That is not true.
Nigeria is cooperating with different nations based on her needs.

For security, it welcomes the US.

For economy, China.

Tinubu is not lobbying to go to the white house and he is doing his magics.

It is an issue of National interest and what pays us as a Nation - Nigeria can be friend with whoever she chooses.
