This is good news

Though I doubt if Putin will stop now

Even if all the sanctions are lifted today, Russia is doomed economically

Foreign direct invest will be almost non-existent because investor confidence have been killed

After this war, there will only be 3 winners

1. USA

2. China

3. Ukraine

Putin just traded the future of Russia for a morsel of Akpu and onugbu

I understand ur sentiments.

How the war is happening INSIDE Ukraine with the destruction of numerous facilities and Ukraine will still be winner is baffling to me.

I want to advise that we should have a mind of our own, make proper sense of things without the influence of western media.

Those thinking USA will do something after this are jokers.

Biden expressly said that "USA won't send any boots on Ukraine ground or anywhere that would escalate the war".

He repeatedly urged USA citizens to move out of Ukraine as fast as possible.

RIP to the dead but it was part of the hazards that comes with his kind of job.

My parents are both AS. Married in the 70s.
They had 10 kids, fortunately I happen to be the only AA genotype among all 10.

Lost 6 to crisis that comes with being SS genotype.
Have three SS genotype remaining.

I have watched 6 of my siblings die. Please don't do that to any of ur kids.

Whenever I receive a call from home, I anticipate getting the news that something bad has happened.

My entire life has been like that. Always get calls to rush down to the hospital or come take one to the hospital.

I buy suppliments now and then for all of them just to see how to improve their health.

My eldest sister tho is over 40 years, she is the strongest person I know on earth despite being a chronic sickle cell patient.

B2Bmen:
u are wrong.

You are right!

My Dad had 18 people in our house before we were born. They were properly brought up and had good education courtesy of my dad.

When it was our time for school, there no longer money.

All these 18 guys have their families and majority are comfortable but guess what?

They won't even pick ur call let alone offer to help with a fraction of our fees.

I had to do menial jobs and write exams for people to pay my way and siblings through school.

Dad is aged now and has stroke. Na only me still dey pay him bills.

Listen to ur wife and begin to build your family.

Sometimes, what people call philanthropy is stupidity.

Give but remember to save for your kids, if u don't they will curse u when reality sets in and heaven won't blame them.

I concur!

Honestly, sometimes I feel I should've gone to learn trade from an Igbo man instead of wasting all those years writing jamb and gaining admission with nonsense ASUU strikes.

I for just serve 5 years, get freedom and stand on my own. Now I am stuck with a job that demands everything from someone and gives little back.

It's not too late tho. Let me find an Igbo big man serve abeg. I don tire.

yanabasee:
You can't compare Russia nuclear with a collective nuclear weapons from all concerned NATO countries...

It is not a game of numbers bro.
It is a game of all sides losing when a single nuclear is released.

THERE WILL BE NO WINNERS IF IT ESCALATES TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
You have watched too much Hollywood that u think one actor will save the day.

It will take maximum a day for all of us to suffer the consequences of 2 nuclear strikes. USA has over 6,000, Russia has over 6,000. I don't care what the rest NATO members have, if both countries fire 1,000 each we are all gone.

yanabasee:
NATO looking for a way to attack Russia smoothly.....

They are just making empty threats.
USA hasn't won a war against any reasonable country.

They will avoid direct confrontation at all cost but sound tough.
They both know if it escalates to direct confrontation, the entire world will be destroyed.

emmadothings:
So this mumu no know say Russia dey among the UN countries that drafted the article 5 of the UN charter...don't bother I know where u from , no need arguing with someone without common sense

You didn't need to result to abuse to make ur point.
You are right with ur views and he is equally right.

When will we understand that everyone sees things differently.

Don't be wise in ur own eyes and be blind to reason and logic in other people's view.

Northernblood5:

Yes. they don't even know that Putin doesn't mean well for them. Putin's selfish mind is this "If we don't get it, then everyone will sink " Africans don't know that if that Maniac releases those Nuclear weapons which many will be shot down in the sky, when wind blows, it carries it and when rain falls, it brings it. At the end of the day, life will become unlivable for the living.

That is the Maniac idiots are supporting due to Religion

I careless what Putin or NATO does but get this...... The reason u walk nicely is because there seem to be balance between ur left and right body system.

Why did I mention that? The power dynamics must be balance between NATO and Russia. The world is Bi-polar. We need both of them to check each other's excesses.

If NATO over powers, they will mess us up, it Russia over powers, we will be messed up.

NigeriaNawa:
I keep telling Putin e-rats and comradunces that NATO will take the Russian military out in less than a week, thats why Putin is always talking about Nuclear weapons.

Social media analyst!
I greet u.

You have watched too much Hollywood movies.

The problem here is, we fail to understand that if it escalates to that point of direct confrontation between Russia and NATO....... THERE WILL BE NO WINNERS!
It will take both 12 hours to destroy the entire world.

Frankiss44:
You people just come online and blab.. First of all not a TV person and the only time I see CNN is at the office and most time is is close to mute so if you think what I drop here is based on CNN then I can't be of help.. What exactly has China done to show they have solidly backed them.. So you really think if this whole thing springs into a world War, China will send troops to fight for Russia?? I shake my had for you.. It takes someone that has done business with the Chinese to kmow how they reason so am not surprised

Doing business with Chinese is a different ball game from international politics.

Even if u are married to a Chinese it doesn't automatically means u know how where there interest lie in world politics.

ken6488:
Actually Russia has turned to gold

You didn't need to tell him.
People like that only watch CNN and then come here with mumu analysis.

Frankiss44:
Iran. Lol... They haven't even been able to cope with Israel... And they still need the US more than any country in Asia that's why they couldn't even come out to support Russia in UN vote.. China remains the number trade partner with NATO and the US, as usual they will stay on the fence..

So How's China's diplomacy "staying on the fence" going?

Have u seen how they have solidly backed Russia?

Sometimes, it's difficult explaining to people who watch CNN what the actual world politics is about.

What is going on is an ideological war. If Russia fall, China's socialism is gone!.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Camelot65:
Both countries that had no balls to vote in support of Russia's invasion are who you call serious allies? US ND the EU are even China's biggest trade partners

I actually didn't reply Ur mention immediately because I know people like u argue too much.

Have u seen China's loyalty with Russia lately?

I wanted time to help me explain my point.

You don't even know what is happening is an ideological war. And who else shares same ideology with Russia if not China.

If Russian socialism fails, u think China's will stand.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend" very simple logic!
But u chose to argue.

ArchiLimited:
I've been seeing several internet warriors on this site blaming Zelensky for the war and calling him foolish for not yielding. It's appaling really the percentage of 21st century youths that are empty. So the president and leader of a country should lay down and yield his country and people to a foreign invader without a fight? Thank goodness you guys are not leading anything.

You might be the empty one though.

Learn to respect people's view and don't call them empty for not seeing things Ur way.

I for one have been on the fence since this crisis started and honestly, everyone is right.

Frankiss44:
Russia has no serious allies, even Putin knows he is safer in the hands of the west than China that is always in the fence .. This world wi are leaving in is sadly controlled by the west.. Know this and know peace

If China, Iran isn't serious allies to you, I wonder!

joyandfaith:
UK military may collapse. Then there will be resistance and civil disobedience. Vietnamese did not give up for years. Talibans did not give up. Things will get messy.

Read up the reasons these wars failed in these regions you mentioned. None of these countries share border with America.
On the other hand, it doesn't cost much to transport hardware to Ukraine from Russia.

Vietnam weather took a toll on American soldiers. Ukraine and Russia share same weather.

Just forget it, this is a hardware warfare,
Na CNN dey deceive una, Ukraine never stood any chance.

longetivity:
Putin will die a very painful death

Sadly, he is not Gaddafi.
Who would bell the cat?

Iyalaya anybody to attempt to confront him and his army.

BritishNaija:
We can see how is arsenal are really working in Ukraine

Funnily, he is playing with Ukraine at the moment. If Russia release a full-scale war on Ukraine, that war will last for 2 hours before Ukraine will disappear front he map.

This is a diplomatic warfare to force Ukraine to submit to its will not to destroy her.

USA sef can't underestimate them the way some of us are doing. USA know better.

internationalman:
Guy forget that thing. For Putin to make mention of nuclear weapons means his losing..

Try dey read small small. Don't just form knowledge on assumption.

Russia is not fighting a full scale war with Ukraine, this is just advanced diplomacy warfare to bully Ukraine.

How can Russia be loosing a war it is fighting on Ukraine soil?
Ukraine is putting up good resistance but for how long?

Ukraine's President won't even underestimate Russia the way some of you do.

Don't be deceived by American movies you watch. Russia can end this world today if Putin goes psycho.

Timekeeper452:
Nothing like false narrative. Putin is loosing this one.

He’s already playing his queen (Threatening nuclear missiles). So much for the brilliant strategist. He is not operating on rational but on pure emotion. It’s too late for him to pull back and negotiate. The consolidated economic response along with Ukraine’s steel spine has revealed his weakness.

In other words, this goose is cooked.

Putin is even now threatening google to unban their youtube channel in Ukraine.

The fact that Putin could demand, threaten, kick and scream and the whole world is ignoring him like a toddler on the floor is priceless. It also shows that his “strength” is nothing. He is nothing.


Just want to add that it is still early and the Ukrainian’s are doing the heavy lifting for the rest of the world. We need to remember what they have sacrificed for us.

You are making the point of the post.
All u know is what the western media shows u.

People like u supported the killing of Gaddafi because CNN said he was evil.

Stop being a "News zombie" anywhere them turn u, u face.

Only a biological father has the connection spiritually to bless you.

All those saying "they gave to their Pastor and blessings came" are just deceiving themselves.
God follows principles.

The wahala I faced when my son was given birth to taught me a great deal.
Our parents especially fathers went through stress to raise us. Imagine the sacrifices and sleepless nights you gave them, only for you to grow up and instead of taking care of them you say God said it is a man of God that should reap their rewards.

It will never be well with any son that neglects his parents to give any fraction of his sweat to a pastor.

DickDastardly:

All Nuclear Powers should also chanel all their Nukes towards Russia on the ready. Enough of this idiots chenanigans.
Operation wipe out RUSSIA.
NONSENSE!!!

Na small pikin dey worry you.

As a Muslim or Christian,
What do you understand by charity and how does it matter?

Personally, I think it feels good but I really can't tell God's opinion on the subject.

Help me understand please!

I made a case for charity in my speech at a Toastmasters club. Check out the link below.

TOPIC: 4CS THAT DIFFERENCIATES THE POOR VS THE RICH

INTRODUCTION
Have you ever wondered why despite your hard work and positive mindset to change your
financial status; you still don’t see improvement?
Everyone needs money but not everyone gets it up to the volume they need, why?
Proverbs 22 vs 2 – The rich and the poor have one thing in come, the Lord created them
both.

Beside this biblical common ground, I believe the haves (Rich) and the have nots (Poor)
have many things in common, they breathe the same air, wear clothes (different quality).

If you were asked to differentiate the Haves and have nots, majority would use money as
the yard stick, however that isn’t always the case. When trying to differentiate you need to
look at factors ranging from Life expectancy,
illiteracy,
standard of living,
social
participation and
survival.

I will attempt to differentiate the haves and the have nots using the 4Cs.

Disclaimer:
The application of this 4Cs will not make you an instant millionaire, however, when
practiced for a while it will ease your financial burdens and strategically place you at an
advantage with regards to finances.


4Cs-
1- CHARACTER
The Haves see money as an opportunity, have nots people see it as something to be earned.
The haves are diligent with whatever they do even when doing it for others whereas, the
have nots eyeservice, they only work under supervision.

The haves are trustworthy, they pay their financial obligation and can be trusted with money. The have nots always seek to take advantage.

2- CONNECTION
I have realized that the haves make quality friends, by quality I do not mean friends who put on luxurious wears, no! I mean character wise and talent.
When they meet someone, they sense have value, they connect base on what you do, how to synergize to create more value in the future.

The have nots make friends by default or by proximity. They rarely make meaningful friends. I noticed that they only make friends around their religious circle and it rarely amounts to any productive outcome.
They connect on a shallow level.

The haves due to their connection skills always seem to know who to call to get anything done. They connect with you regardless of age so long as they have something to learn from
you.

3- CAPABILITY
The haves find it easy to carry out any task because they believe in cause and effect. They do or learn what needs to be done to get the desired results they want, as such they are capable to handle their fields with ease.

The have nots believe that life has been predestined, they put in minimal efforts and expect the heavens to give them the desired results.

There is a popular saying among the have nots in my country “who no wear jersey go play match when God blow the whistle, this means, even if you are not selected to play a match and not putting on a jersey, through the divine intervention you will play in that match.
Even though I believe in divine intervention, Ronaldo and Messi did not become stars because of divine intervention. They put in hours or practice and sacrifices to be this great.

4- CASH
The haves don’t always have cash to spend and spray at parties and do dorime' every now and then like the have nots think they do. They need money like everyone else.
Because they have character, connection and capability in place, it is easy for them to get cash from anyone, whether banks, friends or anyone. They are credit worthy; they always
meet their obligation.

The have nots, have character defect/ not credit worthy, not trusted with money, no meaningful connection and don’t have skill in whatever they need money for.

CONSLUSION
It has been widely researched that the habits of the haves can be directly link to their financial status, same as the poor.
Habits are everything.

You may have noticed something you could improve in your habits earlier while I was discussing the 4Cs, make efforts to daily practice the habits of 4cs the haves display that sets them apart from the have nots.

What habits would you change to see change in your life?

Danny50:
US is waiting patiently for you to fall into the trap of invading Ukraine so that they will mess you up

Which war has the USA ever won?

Hope you know common Vietnam sent them packing in shame.

alizma:
Just calm down, US dey one side dey pray make Russia attack Ukraine.
Putin's recent romance with China is a big threat to US and US will use every instrument at her disposal to destroy that relationship. US is just praying for Putin to attack Ukraine.

What are you saying?
China's loyalty lies with Russia and we could say it's roots are from the Sino-soviet alliance.

Is Biden NATO's spokesperson?

Why all this noise?

Biden is not stable and can't be relied on for credible Intel.

Was at the station this morning by 5am at Nipco Kubwa. I didn't get fuel till 2pm.
I have never been this exhausted.

I even had to fight before I got fuel.

Men, This can't continue.
