For me, these loan company operations should cease hence fourth. They are just bunch of thieves and complete nuisance to the country.

If they must continue , they must be trimmed, scrutinized and regulated fully by the CBN to provide professional financial services.

You did not read down to see where its stated that the soldiers would be paid

The Embassy of Ukraine in Nigeria says Nigerians who are willing to travel to Ukraine to fight Russian forces must be willing to provide $1,000 for ticket and visa.

The embassy stated this when scores of Nigerian men converged on its premises in Abuja on Thursday to express their readiness to join the Ukrainian side.

In an interview with our correspondent, the Second Secretary at the Ukrainian Embassy to Nigeria, Bohdan Soltys, confirmed that $1,000 would be needed by Nigerian volunteers.

The announcement did not go down well with the Nigerians who lamented that the price was too high.

“The $1,000 requirement is too high,” said Monday Adikwu, with number 96NA/41/2808, who was dismissed from the Nigerian Army for leaving his duty post to visit his pregnant wife without permission.

“They said we should provide evidence of military experience, passports and $1,000 for tickets and others. When I asked what the salary is, the guy first said $7,000 and later changed it to $3,300 per month. I showed him my military and training certificates.”

When asked why he wants to go to Ukraine, Adikwu said he needed money to take care of his family including six children

He said, “I want to go to Ukraine because I am a military man. I fought in Liberia. I fought in Sierra Leone. I was part of the 33 Battalion. I was trained by Ukrainian soldiers when I was in the United Nations in Kosovo on how to shoot and drive APC tanks. I can drive it very well.

“So, when I heard about Ukraine and the way people are trooping in… I am a farmer. I don’t have anything. I am a fighter. They said they will pay us so I am ready to fight so that I can get paid and take care of my family. I will also bring glory to the name of Nigeria as a worthy ambassador.”

Adikwu, who was accompanied by other dismissed soldiers, said they were not afraid of Russian forces.

“We are not scared. It was David that killed Goliath with only a tool. So, I believe my going to Ukraine will give them victory

Another applicant, Nkem Ndueche, who is from Anambra State, said he was fluent in Russian having attended a Russian military academy in 2007, said he was willing to fight on the side of Ukraine.

Another applicant, Nkem Ndueche, who is from Anambra State, said he was fluent in Russian having attended a Russian military academy in 2007, said he was willing to fight on the side of Ukraine.

Ndueche added that his wife was against him travelling to fight for Ukraine but he would travel nonetheless for the sake of honour.

“I am 101 per cent to fight for Ukraine. It is wrong for someone to invade another person’s land. That is what Putin is doing and we want to defend Ukraine. I was in the military academy in Russia. I have what it takes. I even served the Nigerian Army briefly too,” he said.

In an interview with The PUNCH, the Second Secretary at the Ukrainian Embassy to Nigeria, Bohdan Soltys, said it would be difficult for Nigerians to travel to Ukraine now since the airspace had been shut due to the war.

He said since Nigerians needed visas to visit Romania and Poland, it would be difficult for them to use the land borders.

“It is normal practice when people want to volunteer and join the army of another country. It is a normal international practice. Of course, for us, it is an expression of support which we really appreciate. For now, no one has gone. We have received hundreds of applications from people who said they are willing. We have sent lists to the government but I cannot tell you what will happen next.

“In this particular case, you cannot fly to Ukraine. The only way you can fly is to countries that border Ukraine. All these countries are part of the EU and Nigerians will need visas to visit these countries. So, it is a big obstacle. You cannot fly directly to Ukraine. You will have to go to Poland or Hungary,” Soltys said.

The diplomat said Ukraine was not recruiting mercenaries but volunteers. He, therefore, advised Nigerians not to focus on the money. He, however, promised that Nigerian volunteers would be paid the same as Ukrainian soldiers.

“If a person wants to fight for Ukraine or any other country, only volunteers can do it. If Ukraine pays these people, they will be mercenaries and it violates international law… In general, when a person joins another country’s army, they pay the normal price that their soldiers are paid. This is how it works across the world. You come to fight because an injustice has been done,” he said

On why $1,000 was being demanded from Nigerian volunteers, the Ukrainian diplomat said, “Yes, $1,000. That is what I paid the last time I visited Ukraine.”

While thanking Nigeria for siding with Ukraine at the United Nations General Assembly, he pleaded with Nigerian citizens who may have been victims of racism during the evacuation in Ukraine not to feel offended, adding that war situations sometimes force people to act out of character.

He, however, advised Nigerians also not to fall for Russian propaganda.

Letting go of those 2 regions would be a bad move. In fact that'd be the end of Ukraine. If those 2 regions succeeds in breaking free, many other regions who feel marginalized would also spring up & would want to be on their own too.

Ukraine ends up breaking into pieces, and at the end of the day Russia assumes control of those regions and what is left of Ukraine might be wiped out or might willing join Russia out of coercion of being attacked by some of it's "brothers" or the recently broken out regions. And for those regions that broke out, it's either you bend the knee to mother Russia or you're wiped out.

Ifesinachi22:
The Russian and Ukrainian "wahala" has been the most important news lately and just yesterday morning Russian military entered some part of Ukraine's eastern territory in what so many people have termed "the absolute declaration of war" by President Vladimir Putin.

Well, if you are lost on the gist. Let me quickly bring you up to speed.

Let's start from the beginning.

So, many years ago, Russia, Ukraine and some other countries in Eastern Europe were all siblings from the same mother- "Soviet Union"

With Russia being the appointed elder brother.

But after the sudden death of their parents on "26 December 1991", all their parents landed properties including kitchen stuff like Armour cars, drones, nuclear weapons and vegetables like biological weapons, etc was shared between all the siblings.

As per elder brother, Russia received the largest of them all.

Now, keep that in mind because we will come back to it.

As years roll by, Russia has been very prudent with its gifts and has grown so massive that it is now rated as the second most powerful country in the world.

His siblings?

Lol...most of them are broke.

But there is an even bigger problem.

Other Russian siblings except Belarus are not in love with Russia.

They say he is a bully and so they are going outside their zone to fall in love and romance with countries like the USA, France, UK, etc.

Russia is not happy with this and in fact, even wants the family to come together again in other to preserve their family legacy.

Even if it is to eat their favourite "Solyanka" again.

Now, remember when I told you that Russia received the largest share of their properties?

Well, it helps Russia in raising millions of children and even enough to trains millions as soldiers.

So, Russia is not only one of the most largest countries in the world, but it also has one of the most powerful military power in the world.

According to global firepower rankings, Russia is number 2.

Now, you might not understand how powerful Russia is when compare to Ukraine until you know, for every Ukraine soldier, there is like 4.5 Russian military man.

That is like 5-1

Ukraine thinks this is scary stuff because even though, they don't want to go back to their family, Russia has the power and can force them to come back home.

" Remember when your Daddy forced you to eat?" Lol

So because of this fear, Ukraine wants to join NATO.

NATO = The North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

It is a military organisation that comprises many countries with the USA as their most powerful member.

Their MOTTO is "Injury to one, injury to all"

So if one country is having wahala, other member countries will come together to help their "cartel man"

But Russia doesn't want to have any of that.

They say, "Taa! if you can not come back home, you can not marry that wife-join NATO"

And they are kind of justified.

If Ukraine joins NATO, it means countries like the USA-an an arch-rival and sworn enemy of RUSSIA can bring their weapons and spying equipment to Ukraine and peep at Russia while their main man is doing something with his babes.

And that is not fair.

Not to smaller countries like Mali or Austria or Ghana though, but to powerful countries like RUSSIA, that is a no-no.

In fact, the US know this self, they will never agree for Russia to come close to Mexico but they just want to try their luck.

So, to prevent this from happening and to show how serious they are about it, Russia started bringing together thousands of army people around the Ukraine border.

They wanted to enter the country "codedly" until Ukraine found out on time and shouted to other countries to come to their aid.

Other countries stood up immediately because they know what Russia can do.

Some countries sent weapons to Ukraine to help them, some sent motivational speakers(military advisers), others like Germany even sent helmets. Lol

They hoped that, if Russia see all of these, they will fear and turn back.

But not Russians, their heart is as iced as the many snow that dots around Moscow.

So, today, Russia still entered Ukraine and declared military operations.

Russia first started entering Ukraine officially, when they recognise two rebel regions in Ukraine as independent republics.

These two regions have been fighting the Ukraine government for years for independent.

Russian recognition of this region means they can officially go in other to protect this region militarily and that is exactly what Russia is doing right now.

Or at least claiming to do

Ukraine and other countries think this is a scam. That Russia is only looking for a pretext to invade Ukraine.

It may be true. It may be wrong

The thing is that, there is an easy way to quickly end this issue.

Ukraine must show their willingness never to enter NATO. QED

Anything other than that is a no-no

The funniest part of this matter for me now, is that Russia is currently the President of the United Nations Security Council.

So, UN can not do anything right now.

Any agreement UNSC will make this month can and will be veto by RUSSIA.
