"I am sorry"is one sentence that trumps tribulations.
Sadly,it is not in some people's vocab.

EmperorIsaac:
Kenneth Okwor (with same feat in Law School) comes to mind. Congratulations to Ifonlaja!

Yes,Kenneth Okwor was/is also good but he got second class because he didn't get up to Ifonlaja level.
Yes,he later did better in Law School.

I learnt Mamman Daura too is in that same London clinic.Former military head of state,Gen AbdulSalam just left the same London clinic after he was discharged.
These wicked people are just wicked for wicked sake.
Why cant they build world standard hospitals in Nigeria but have to run to foreign clinics
and be returned as a cargoes..

Very honorable.
He was buried as a true Muslim unlike some who are pagans.

Konquest:
The Ibos who got their share of 20 Pounds are very lucky that they even got ANY 20 Pounds through the noble influence of Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, and strong his insistence during Federal cabinet meetings as the then Federal Finance Minister (during and after the exactly 2 years and 6 months( July 1967 to January 1970) Nigerian Civil War till he voluntarily left Gowon's cabinet in 1973.

Many Ibos took their Nigerian Pounds from the existing banks and were ordered to have them converted to the Illegally printed "Biafra Pounds" on the orders of Col. Emeka Ojukwu which subsequently were NOT accepted by the international community and international financial institutions as a legal tender because the Biafra secession was deemed illegal and NEVER recognized by United Nations, the United States, the United Kingdom and indeed several influencial countries of the world. So, what Col. Emeka Ojukwu (Rtd) did was to collect ALL the Nigerian Pounds in the hands of Ibos and other non-Ibos within the secessionist enclave (in addition to the ones seized or looted from the Central Bank of Nigeria offices in Eastern Nigeria cities and Benin City during the Mid-West invasion of 1967 by secessionist rebels) and continued to use the seized Nigerian Pounds to buy weapons from suppliers (and pay for publicity and lobbying engagements for war time propaganda) since the Nigerian Pounds was recognized in the international community.

NOW, the British government then adviced Nigeria to change her currency notes to newly designed Nigerian Pounds which were introduced in 1968 and that was one of the major factors which rendered ALL the older Nigerian Pounds notes in the rebel enclave completely useless to Ojukwu's secession plan and led to the downfall of the secessionists with a final surrender to Nigerian Federal troops in January 1970. Emeka Ojukwu himself talked about that currency change as being the major reason that dealt a blow to the secession from 1968 to the end in January 1970. It was only France and some of those irresponsible White mercenaries that kept the war going for selfish reasons. All these are contained in several history books in my personal home libraries on the Nigerian Civil War of July 1967 to January 1970 that I've read since the 1980s.

The Ibos then took the worthless Biafra Pounds (as worthless as toilet paper) they had got to replace the Nigerian Pounds notes in 1967 [which the young 33-year-old Emeka Ojukwu was using to buy weapons, build bunkers and more] and wanted Nigeria to convert the worthless currency to Nigerian Pounds after the Civil War ended BUT the Nigerian government said NO! Those secessionists notes were NOT legal tender. BUT Chief Awolowo insisted that anyone who could provide evidence and documentation of their money still remaining in any Nigerian bank would get it in FULL. Those who could got their money back in FULL. Those who couldn't got 20 Nigerian Pounds which was a very big amount of money that could buy plots of land just like my paternal grandfather did in Lagos State back in the 1960s when he bought plots of land for less than 20 Nigerian Pounds. I saw the receipt and land titles myself so 20 Nigerian Pounds is NOT a small money like I see some young Ibos ignorantly posting online thinking that 20 Nigerian Pounds of 1970/1971 was small. The Nigerian Pounds (later rebranded to the Nigerian Naira which Awolowo named as Naira in the 1970s as the (Federal Finance Minister) was also very strong in the 1960s right through to the oil boom era of the 1970s.

Don't mind him.
There were only about 3 or 4 banks in Nigeria then and the majority of bank customers were basically Yorubas.
I learnt there were about just 5000 customers nationwide.

Still very low to South African debt.
All nations of the world borrow including USA and China who happen to be the most indebted nations in the world.
The main thing is for us to see what they are using the money for.
They shouldn't pocket the money because Nigerians are watching closely now unlike before...

Righteousness2:
Drop FAKE NEWS!
IRAN WAS OBLITERATED BY ISRAEL

Burial Ceremony and Delivery to Virgins is ongoing now in Tehran.
Leave hogwash talks.
Mourn in Peace.
Learn the Lessons.
Avoid ISRAEL.


ISRAEL'S Air Force made history:

During Operation "Rising Lion," it succeeded in penetrating Iranian defenses and carrying out unprecedented, sustained attacks.

These missions included the following:

• 1,200 airstrikes
• 600 aerial refuellings
• Over 80 anti-aircraft batteries and 250 ballistic missile launchers destroyed
• Thousands of precision-guided bombs dropped

And not a SINGLE PLANE or PILOT lost.

These IMPRESSIVE figures will go down in the HISTORY BOOKS

Cowardly killing people in their sleep because of their cowardice.
When Iran woke up, with a lot of Israel high military figures taken out but censored by Satanyahu for zombies like you to gloat over.they turned Israel to these

Israel was humbled and pummeled into ruins

Trump is just a noise maker.
Satanyahu is a coward.He has censored images from Israel except the beautiful ones which still look like Gaza 2.0.
Iran will triumph.

MrIcredible:
lol
Sataniyawu and Trump have just been cracking me up.
Trump thinks this is the 80s...
So many world powers with Iran are waiting to test their new toys in real battles and this is a good chance, especially CHINA AND RUSSIA.
The war against terrorists and illegal settlers is a war that must be won.
Those terrorists and the Cancer of this world and their madness must end.

They took out Sadam
They took out Ghaddifi
Now the terrorists want to take out Iran leader, which won't happen.
They just cause chaos and war everywhere and bully people.

He is just a noise maker.
He knows that most of the bases they have in the middle East will be blown to smithereens.
He knows that Iran has almost finished Israel turning it to another Gaza.

The cowards are censoring pictures and images of Israel that Iran has turned to GAZA 2.0 now.
After the war,Israel would have become almost a graveyard just like what they turned GAZA to.

Hear what an American war expert said:



MIDDLE EAST CONFLICT
16 JUN, 17:23
Israeli, US air defenses have no answer for some of Iran's missiles — US expert
Daniel Davis said that the US should not join Israel’s military operation against Iran
NEW YORK, June 16. /TASS/. Iran has missiles in its arsenal that are capable of bypassing US-and Israeli-made air defense systems, a senior fellow and military expert at Defense Priorities, Daniel Davis, said.

In a Fox News interview, the expert said the US should not join Israel’s military operation against Iran.

"I think that America needs to be very careful that we don't get into this war at all because there's nothing for us to gain. Our security interests throughout the region and certainly in our country, are perfectly protected by our capabilities and our global deployments throughout the world right now," he said.

"We should not get involved with that, because then that will put a target on American backs throughout the Middle East. And as you've seen with a lot of these systems, these Iranian missiles coming through, whether it's Iron Dome, David's Sling, the THAAD system, the Patriots, they can still get through. Our troops in the Middle East - many of them don't have any of those systems, and they would be helpless and defenseless if Iran should take them under fire," the expert continued. "If they do, of course, then it's a whole different ballgame. But we should not precipitate offensive action against Iran, because we don't need to for our security."

He said US President Donald Trump’s decision to prohibit Israel from taking out Iran’s Supreme spiritual leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was "one hundred percent" correct.

"This Israeli attack undermines President Trump's diplomatic opportunities, because he was trying to solve this short of war. <…> And by the way, Iran has consistently said they are willing to negotiate <…>. Now that that seems to be off the table, or at least it's more difficult now," Davis said. "But if you take out the Supreme Leader, then we don't, number one, know who would follow him up, and then there would be no chance for them to have a negotiated settlement, and the most likely outcome would be they would sprint to a bomb instead of negotiate away from a bomb."

Mirasteel:
Satanyanhu is censoring everything, more than 8 has died and thousands Injured from the Iranian strikes.

They will die because of that bloodsucking Satanyahu.
There a lot of weapon system helping Israel but still they are getting their work work.

USA is bringing in more to help Israel the coward. .lol



Meanwhile, the US aircraft carrier USS Nimitz is making its way to the Middle East from the South China Sea, as confirmed by American officials to the Reuters news agency and Fox News. The aircraft carrier will join the USS Carl Vinson, which is already operating in the region.

They can't defeat Iran.
Iran will triumph.

givedemwotowoto:
Even as Israel has taken over Iran's airspace and Iran is falling, the propagandists here in Nigeria claiming that Iran will destroy Israel are still deluding themselves

lol
Continue saying propagandist as Israel is being turned to Gaza.Another BM gift just landed in Israel now.Go and count the casualties because Satanyahu said everything must be censored.They only said 8 died but we know that some of their military personnel and leading politiccians have been taken out.

I hope you are following how USA,UK,France are helping Israel against only one nation.

The coward Satanyahu took Iran by surprise and even in their airspace,one would think the cowards will inflict maximum impact but they are begging USA to join the war.
Iran will triumph.
Down with Satanyahu.

Xammie001:
Isreal is carrying out a Coordinated and Precise attack, the importance of Human Resources can't be under emphasized.
From the Look of things Isreal is clearing the now and the Future of Iran while on the other end, they lack Coordination

Rely only on western media and you won't know what is happening.
This is the other side:

MadeInTokyo:
Don't think Israel is ready to listen to anyone at the time, they will continue the war. iram is running out of options every day.
Iran is running out of missiles they have been firing rockets without precision to civilians buildings and not hitting any single Israel military target or base or arm depot to weaken the Israeli military like Israel has done to Iranian military targes and key infrastructurs, now Iran can't reproduce any missile at the moment , all their missiles factories have all be destroyed by Israel , Israel has destroyed thousands of Iranian missiles stockpiles/warehouses now Israel has strategically destroyed their almost all their fuel and gas depots and their refineries, in few days the Iranian economy will completely collapse without fuel and gas.
Regime change is the end game of Israel similar to what's they did to Bashir Assad in Syria some months ago

Propaganda!
Israel is mad.They want to hit nuclear reactors but they will fail.
Iran will triumph over the bloodsucking Satanyahu.

MadeInTokyo:
Iran has been reaching out to several countries to compel United States and Israel for a cease fire and a halt to Israeli airstrikes across Iran and are ready to go back to negotiating table as regards their nuclear enrichment

lol
By Israel Radar
Hilarious because Iran just sent 6 BM as gifts to Israel now.

Okwyjesus:
When they finish scratching, Isreal will come down heavily on them.

And l won't beg them....

Read foreign papers,they are both attacking themselves right now.
Israel hit a fuel depot in Iran.

Iran will prevail and triumph.
I want that bloodsucking terrorist to be humbled.

Christistruth02:
Israel will still have almost no casualties
May be two unlucky dogs at most

It is too hard to fight those God Almighty is watching over

bigcasava1:
then Iran rely on who? One thing you must know no country is an island of its own

Israel doesn't just rely on them covertly especially USA,they help Israel every time,any day and any minute.
If it were not for USA and France who intercepted most of those missiles,Israel would have been in much worse ruins.

Fiscus105:
You saved $84b, yet heading to foreign lands to secure another $25b in the next two years.

May God not make you an ignorant ignoramus.
Have you asked yourself why USA and China are still borrowing money through different means even as rich as they are.
Ask yourself why a small populated nation like South Africa is owing almost 6 times what Nigeria is owing.

tabaralph:
Don’t cry rivers when Israeli start to bomb civilian residential buildings, mofos like you will be crying genocide and killing of women and children, watch and see the results in 12 hours time

Go and sit down,sir.
You think say na Gaza that does not have any deterrence full with civilians that Israel have been bombing for neons but their rag tag army have not been ABLE to release the hostages there after almost 2 years.
Israel is a paper tiger.The cowards rely on USA,UK,France etc.

Funkymode:
That downing of the fighter jets has been debunked, it's not true, that picture was taken from Serbia airbase on the 1st of February, too much lies from the pro-Iran groups

Bring the news of debunking here now.
10 badass fighter jets are down with 2 Israel pilots captured by Iranian personnel.

jaxxy:
Hamas uses civilians and hospital buildings as human shields.

lol
So you believe that foolish narrative Israel and USA flying.
Even when they line up for food,Israel still continue to kill them.
I think they being used as shield on the queue too
God will seriously and decisively humble Israel especially that Terrorist Netanyahu.

hotwax:
the F35 wreckages were AI generated. Rest man..even Iran has stopped sharing it

If that will make you sleep well,then you can believe whatever you deem fit..

10 Israeli aircraft downed across Iran
Politics
June 14, 2025 - 21:59

TEHRAN - Brigadier General Alireza Sabahifard, Commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Air Defense Base, announced that within the past hour, 10 hostile aircraft belonging to the Zionist regime were shot down in various parts of the country.

In a significant development, Iranian air defense systems over Tehran successfully intercepted and downed an Israeli drone targeting the capital, underscoring Iran’s heightened state of alert.

Iran’s integrated air defense network remains actively engaged against hostile threats across several provinces. Reports from Tasnim News Agency confirm ongoing air defense operations targeting enemy drones in Hormozgan, Kermanshah, West Azerbaijan, Lorestan, Tehran, and Khuzestan provinces.

On Saturday, Iranian forces detected and neutralized numerous enemy drones in the western regions of the country as well as in Qom province, demonstrating continued vigilance and rapid response capabilities.

FreeStuffsNG:
Israelis on Saturday described the fear, chaos and confusion as several Iranian missiles slammed into houses and apartments in central Israel overnight, causing widespread destruction, killing three people and wounding dozens.

Col. (res.) Michael David, who leads the Home Front’s Tel Aviv command, told Ynet that his forces were trained to handle such situations and received reinforcements, but said: “This is an event of a magnitude we haven’t seen in the past.”

This is a report from a pro-Isreal platform.

Expensive multibillion dollars defence toys like Iron dome, David slingshot and US Patriot/ THAAD lule pii when Iran missiles were dropping on Isreal.

No doubt, Iran is a formidable foe and it explains why US has been avoiding direct confrontation with Ira

War is bad. All the warring sides should stop these wars.

It is even the failure of the THAAD that amazed me.
3 F-35 fighter jets have been downed by Iran made air defence systems and 2 Israel pilots are in their custody and one eliminated according to Tehran Times.
I don't know the authenticity.

Terrorist Netanyahu relies on western powers.
Iran will still triumph.
Netanyahu has spilled too much blood.He must be held responsible

IIranian Navy prevents British warship from entering Persian Gulf amid suspected Israeli coordination
Politics
June 14, 2025 - 21:36

TEHRAN – The Iranian Navy announced that it stopped a British destroyer in the Sea of Oman after the vessel entered the region to assist the Zionist regime in guiding missile strikes toward Iranian territory.

In a statement released by the Public Relations Office of the First Naval Zone, the Navy said the British warship entered the northern Indian Ocean late Saturday night with suspicious intent. Iranian surveillance systems detected the vessel early, and Navy combat drones were dispatched to respond.

“The vessel was prevented from continuing toward the Persian Gulf following clear and direct warnings issued by Iranian naval drones,” the statement said. “Thanks to the timely vigilance of our intelligence systems, the destroyer was identified, tracked, and ultimately forced to change course.”

According to the Navy, the destroyer had effectively fallen into the operational trap of Iranian intelligence and maritime defense units in the Sea of Oman and was compelled to retreat.

This incident comes amid escalating tensions in the region following recent Israeli attacks on Iranian targets and Iran’s subsequent retaliatory operation under Operation True Promise III, which involved missile and drone strikes on strategic Israeli positions in the occupied territories.

The Iranian Navy reaffirmed that any movement threatening national security or supporting enemy aggression would be met with immediate and decisive action.

BodyCount:
Stop spreading fake news.
Nigeria doesn't have a dog in this fight but we won't condone terrorism.
Nigeria is not against the retaliation against terrorists.

Their NYLON DOME will continue to fail.
The pictures we see from the response of Iran against the terrorists are very beautiful and we hope and pray for many more.
I want to see pictures of schools and hospitals like that of Gaza.
God bless Iran.
