One could easily be at the mercy of devious media houses, yes. No denying that. In fact, notwithstanding my great hatred of the man, I will add that he was also widely misunderstood on the "good people on both sides" comment re: Charleston. Because media often left out his specific exclusion of neo nazis. So I can admit that (I know your question is not for me, but just offering my view).

Now the thing is this, for many Trumpists, this is conclusive proof that the man had no hand in Jan 6. Thats wrong for me. Regardless of what BBC did, he was still the chief instigator.

Well then, I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do to “help” you. Yeah you can say you don’t need any help. But then again, many leftists love to live in self denial - knowing the truth but deliberately suppressing it because of their hatred of it.

Jesus spoke about people like this a lot. And how that the end of such people is in the deepest part of Hell.

Its like that "Christianity" that they practice, that make them think they have affinity with white folks is what is causing them brain rot to be very honest

Because i don't for the life of me understand the defense for hideous elements like Charlie Kirk and Tommy Robinson

No be juju be dat .

It's not hard to know that. You have been "wired" like that - not to understand by several years of guzzling real leftist media stuff and their propaganda. It's the liberal mindset. Your worldview is different.

For example, let me ask you one question - and don't spin things. Just give straight answer.

The new discovery that the BBC (disgraceful, left leaning evil media propaganda house) doctored Trump's speech on Jan 6th 2021 to include "fight like hell" and make it look like him urging people on to go fight in the Capitol. Did you at the time not believe that Trump made that comment - until more than an hour later (as later shown)? Yes or No.

The relationships between China 🇨🇳 and Japan, then India 🇮🇳 and Pakistan 🇵🇰, and then China and India 🇮🇳, and finally Japan and South Korea, will ultimately determine the fate of the developing world in the coming years. How? If these countries can find ways to make peace, sort the issues around the South China Sea, link their economies better, then they have the market to not just consume all they produce, but to consume almost all that is exported to their countries..

Add neighbouring Indonesia and Russia into that mix, and you have a very productive population within these countries that is chasing, wait for it, 5 BILLION people. And these are not 5 billion hungry and jobless people, but 5 billion extremely productive and increasingly richer people. What does this mean for the developing world..?

It simply means that if any country on earth can identify one or two or three or four very marketable products/goods that she can competitively export for solid earnings, you immediately have atleast 2 billion(about half of their population)upwardly moving customers waiting for you and your products with solid cash over there in the east.

This is the easiest way to circumvent western draconian control of world trade and economics. The whole western population is barely upto the population of China alone. Most Chinese provinces are richer than two or three western countries combined...And their appetite for raw materials and rare goods are insatiable. Imagine where Nigeria is exporting basics like quality cassava/starch, yams or palm oil to these areas(goods that cant easily be produced in other regions of the world) in huge quantity.
You may not really need to export jets and computers to be rich!

Beautiful analysis. Well done. Let the West be there destroying their own economies and countries via mass migrations, worthless climate actions, lgbtqixud rubbish and the likes.

SmartPolician:
Nobody actually loves this country. Everyone is looking for means to steal from this country. What's so special about keeping a country nobody loves? Nobody has been able to answer this question.

No truer words have been spoken about Nigeria. Well done.

BREAKING

THE Supreme Court has declined to hear a case seeking to overturn the nationwide legalization of same-sex marriage

Why on earth will anyone “rejoice” over this ?? How??

Na wa o! What the hell is wrong with people ?

What’s with the Brits obsession with Islam and terrorism sef ?

Second point. I do hope you understand that the reason right wingers claim climate change is not real is because they believe it will not affect rich countries.

If a tsunami comes from the ocean, most of them have ways to protect themselves. And that's exactly why they think it will affect poor countries more, but that's simply not true.
.....

Do you even know what causes a tsunami? The reasoning in this example, using a natural disaster to describe how the rich protect themselves from the poor is moot because natural disasters typically affect both the rich and poor. The Japan Fukushima episode comes to mind - fast.

RodgersAkpafu:
Two sides of the same coin to be honest

It is common knowledge that some islamic societies (like Northern Nigeria Pakistan and other shit hole regions) have certain views about women amd other topics that are not fit for use in the 21st century

But the conservatives pointing fingers have the similar views that are not also fit for use.

Two clowns 🤡 pointing fingers at each other

Your views doesn't make sense. It is the Islamic societies that are against "conservatives" (majorly people who are of firm Christian foundations and who largely built and shaped the 21st century as we know it, until liberalism and other forms of decrepit social offshoots started corrupting things) views about women and societies. Their goal has always been to dominate the world and make it shariah compliant.

Can you give any example of topics where Conservatives have similar views with Islam - not fit for the 21st century?

And in another news, in Birmingham, anti Semitism is alive and well.

I never liked Nancy - but that's me. Fetterman appears to have seen the light. Happy retirement to her and her family.

buda dear, all you posted up there are off points stuff - and you probably know this. I am dead serious, lady! lets talk.

budaatum:
Ono, I seriously do not doubt that you "like" buda. buda is likable like that. In fact where is ben? I haven't seen him lately!

The problem is you don't know what you like, nor how. It's like you see the fruit and like it but don't realise that's because it is not "corrupted by the evils of society".

But worse is that you do not understand that your "too much knowledge" is the Word. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all humankind.



Your horse is behind your donkey. Here in Britain we first went to these your so called "new beliefs system" and learnt a lot from them that benefitted us immensely. Then we studied what they did so we can do it too and that benefitted us even more. And now they are coming to live amongst us the majority of us accommodate them because they benefit us and because our belief system welcomes strangers.

Below is education in some places, as determined by people who educate their children.

https://lewisham.gov.uk/myservices/education/schools/religious-education-in-schools/teaching-religious-education-in-schools

When God told the Israelites to welcome strangers, He did not intend for the strangers to now become those who will "indoctrinate" the Israelites with their "new belief systems" to make them turn their back on God - as England and the West has done and are "corrupted" thereby. There is no doubt that learning new "things" comes with its own benefits and all. God knew this. He knew that those "benefits" also have poisons - and they corrupt the unsuspecting - as it is today with the West and in England. So, He warned them not to accommodate them.

But buda will not listen to the voice of the Lord. Maybe Coco too (I don't know). See how well we have now fared. Look at the "new knowledge" on sex change operations, LGBTQUISX+, same sex marriage, tolerance that's demonic at its roots, laxity, crimes increasing and rapidly expanding across the West, broken homes and families, divorce, terrible governance and government structures, strife, disobedient children, chaos, deaths.

I know what I like. And I know the devil is out there to destroy societies that turned their back on God. Atheists are hell bound - that's a fact. Those of them that are alive should retrace their steps and seek God. He will take them back to restore them.

budaatum:
Ono, this describes what's happening to church.

People who believe like you are chasing us out of the pews.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSeCfvYe9Tw?si=amvL8qcr9DP8Kzcy

I'll be going this Sunday. I got this lovely Christian grandma who walks like .01mph taking me. We good laugh both ways.

I'll remember to take a photo for you.

buda, going to Church does not take you anywhere! The new "Church of Christ" - true believers, are not known by their church attendance. For by their fruits alone, ye shall know them! Right now, the sheep (true and real worshipers of the God) are getting separated from the goats (nominal church goers and many/all liberals etc), in preparation for the end - just like Christ himself said it will be - in the end.

buda, I like you and Coco a lot. I don't know, we can connect outside of here - if you don't mind. Let's talk. You have a good heart. Don't let it get corrupted by the evils of society and the direction "too much knowledge" is taking those who go down that path will find themselves in the end. All things belongs to the Father - He's the source of everything.

To the others in the West, I write. You can all see where accommodating other belief systems have taken you. A further check on AI revealed to me that formal Islamic studies programs started in 1949 in the US. Since then, can you all tell me how well we have fared? If you are sincere and not deceiving yourselves, do you think we have benefited anything from harbouring and accommodating these new beliefs system?

Buda et al, I did some checks. See below from AI.

https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2025/11/05/dnc-chair-no-one-gives-a-sht-about-cultural-issues-anymore/

And this, guys, this is what I'm talking about! See what I mean?

Can you all now see where the West is going?? Just read a snip of what this guy said below to appreciate how shortsighted, intolerant, selfish and self centered these people are. I doubt this one knows anything about principalities and powers and the rulers of darkness of this world. I doubt he knows Jesus on a personal level - talk less of fasting and prayer. They don't even care when the Devil dangles a carrot before them - like a trap. Wow!

Because their tummy is their god, and because they care more about the fleeting things of this life - food, clothings, rents and cars and all, they are ready to sell their souls to the Devil! - sell them to even their enemies (for a morsel of porridge), who will destroy them, their societies, their legacies, their very foundations!

Between, I heard many Middle Eastern Sheikhs, along with the Soros and other morally decrepit people poured resources into this unfortunate and devilish win for the Democrat Party.

Basilico, you are right. This right here is an emergency. The Democrat Party as we know it, the Party of FDR, is gone!

raumdeuter:
Georgia Public sector? what is that? Who is running there? Georgia is purple and has 2 Democrat senators, so how is it a surprise that Blue won in Georgia

My bro, this election is not a referendum on the GOP or Trump - in any way, shape or form. Buda and her friends - Ijebos and company are "rejoicing" over nuttin. Trump is barely a year as President in this non consecutive term of his.


But I have other worries for the West and western civilisation as we know it. Gloomy future ahead for us, if we continue to allow liberals and their terrible, destructive and demonic policies to shape our societies. The West must return to their Christian roots - with fear and reverence to the Mighty Lord and God, Jehovah Adonai. The Lord of Hosts! We have families who don't pray anymore. They don't serve the Lord anymore. Children who don't even know what Christianity is! They accommodate harmful, hateful demonic ideas and agendas! They allow logic, feelings and carnal thoughts to guide their actions. They no more seek the face of the Lord for help and direction in the management of the affairs of the things of this life. We are on a downward spiral - and getting out of control by the influence of atheists, "thought leaders", "wordsmiths" - who like to complicate very simple things for which guidance can be found in his Holy Word - the Bible, and corrupt societies with their "sweet" words.

We have now allowed and accommodated people of different faiths, belief systems, culture and traditions, alien to ours, to now systematically corrupt our societies in the West. All for what? Multiculturalism and to look acceptable to these groups - and feel good with ourselves, but to our own downfall and ultimate destruction? The other day, I read in the news that many Western Universities - CUNY, Oxford, Cambridge, many of the Ivy league Universities, etc etc now offer programs in Islamic studies! We have Professors teaching about Islam in American and British Universities! How did we get to this point in our life?

These are the reasons we have lost it in New York, New Jersey, Virginia and maybe Georgia and elsewhere. This last election wasn't about Trump and the GOP in any way. It is a reflection of a society that has lost touch with their roots. A society that has lost touch with their God.

Death and destruction is in the horizon folks - except we retrace our steps and humbly go back to where we missed it. May God help us all.

budaatum:
I doubt it's intelligent to discard how dump has 'worked' all his life and only focus on how he incompetently "carried out the Iran bombing operations".

That would be like disregarding all your Nairaland posts and only focusing on this single one post.

Well, he's done a lot of other good stuff buda. Your hatred of him won't let you see them. Sad.

IjeBos:
"I will fix it on day one."
Isn't that what Trump ran on?

It's odd, you now want to give Trump time to use hurtful corrective measures but wouldn't give Biden the same after coming out of a Global Pandemic.

And - after all these years, you don't know how Trump does his stuff? His body language etc?

It's obvious your hatred of Trump made you not know how the man operates.

If you want to know how the guy works, take a look at how he carried out the Iran bombing operations.

nateevs:
I worry that the hunger was not painful and deep enough to create longlasting memory.

Do not estimate the resolve of people who hate others more than they love themselves.

In time, they will deny everything that happened per MAGA doctrine, and they will resurface.

Trump has been president for less than a year - and people think he will correct (or perform a miracle) to suddenly start making things work for them, without him taking some hurtful corrective measures? You guys should think a bit o.

Auto pen Biden was president for four years - life was bad for all Americans throughout his time in office - heck, that's even one key reason Trump was elected back to office! Now, all blames are on Trump? Na wa o.

Mamdani victory speech. War on landlords , the volume is up Mr Trump. The system that built you up and your billionaire friends will be crushed .
New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant. Hear me, President Trump: when I say this, to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us.

He's just a loud mouth spewing gibberish. Let's see how things work out for his socialist policies - in a few months.

raumdeuter:
These are states that didnt vote Trump in 2024. Anyone with elementary knowledge of politics know this

I wonder o oo. All the states are super deep blue states that hates Trump and the GOP a lot! In one Fox News evaluation of the events, that everyone is interested in what the GOP can pull out of this is a huge plus for the GOP.

IjeBos:
Republicans were already scared of the midterms.
They are probably terrified tonight.

There was nothing to be scared or terrified of. All the states elections took place were all deep blues states - or blue leaning states (Virginia) so nothing new. What is there to be terrified of ?

basilico:
Jay Jones also won.
The guy who wanted his republican opponent dead, plus his children.

Normalizing violence.

Good luck to them all!

budaatum:
Ono, you should mention my full name so I know what you say about me please. Digging through basilicosrubbish is a bit too hard work for me, thanks.

For your information, buda has been an atheist from birth, and would be delighted if all religions could be banned. But that would be like banning tribes in order to abolish tribalism, or banning human beings to abolish ïgnorance, and that just might be overkill.

The thing with atheists is that their own perception and/or definition of everything about life is deeply rooted in logic - and by what they can see and feel. A hopeless state to be in, in my opinion. For as has been demonstrated time and again, there is more to this life than what we see and feel and life is more than logic.

There is and has been a “force” - which we as humans with limited and restricted understanding of this world and life, acknowledge that it is at play. We (as Christians) acknowledge that our understanding of the universe is limited - simply by the fact that we are a part of it. You cannot, by any logic, sight and feelings think you know in all its entirety everything that governs a system you’re born into and a part of! That’s foolishness of the highest order on full display!

Oya, for everyone saying they'll leave NYC, pack your bags

We are watching.

Mamdani won. We all knew deep blue New York will be hard to win by Trump and the GOP. We saw it coming.

Now, let the New Yorkers stew in their own poop. Good luck and Godspeed to the people of Big Apple and their choice.

Same for the people in Virginia. Good luck!

“The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant, it’s just that they know so much that it isn’t so” - President Ronald Reagan.

basilico:
Stupid elitist thinking she knows better than the founder if Boko Haram. He is a well educated cleric quoting their own books and interpretations. Disapprove his own words here . Trump has nothing to do with this.

Mohammed Yusuf (1970–2009), the founder of Boko Haram, taken straight from his own sermons and police interrogation:
On Western education “Western education is forbidden. The reasons are: it destroys our belief in one Allah; it teaches that rain comes from the sky and not from Allah; it says the world is a sphere—if that is true, China should be below us!”
(Sermon, Maiduguri, 2008; translated in The Boko Haram Reader)


On democracy “Democracy is unbelief (kufr). Voting is unbelief. The constitution is unbelief. We reject all of them.”
(BBC Hausa interview, Oct 2008)

On the Nigerian state “This government is haram because it does not rule by Shari’a. Anyone who works for it—soldier, policeman, civil servant—is an unbeliever.”
(Friday sermon, Ibn Taymiyyah Mosque, 2009)

On science “We do not believe Darwin’s theory that man came from monkey. That is a lie against Allah. We believe only what Allah says in the Qur’an.”
(Open-air preaching, 2006; circulated on VCD)

During his final police interrogation
“I don’t know why you refuse to accept my own Islam… Boko is haram because it teaches things that contradict the Qur’an.”
(Police transcript, Maiduguri, 30 July 2009)



I reference the terrorist own words. Stupid elitists just wash it away by calling them warped beliefs without countering them.

buda is living in lala land my brother. When push turns to shove, buda will gladly shift base to Islam. People like that are in it for what they can get out of it.

DeLaRue:
That's unrealistic, nor is it necessarily a good thing. Such superfast appreciation may create new pockets of instability in the economy.

Naira reaching N1000 by December will be a nightmare for the CBN and the Ministry of Finance. Both will prefer a slow and steady rise.

Managing an economy is a delicate game a chess. For every positive development in one part of the economy (e.g currency) there is a potential negative effect elsewhere.

So while naira reaching N1000 by December looks good on paper, it will reverse most of the gains we have made in the last 18 months when we started exporting more and importing less. It will also reverse the ongoing efforts to produce more of what we need here in Nigeria.

If Nigeria hits N1000 by December, imported goods will become significantly cheaper next year, and the country will go back to importing more of everything. Yes, the man on the street will be happier, but long term the economy will become worse and more import-dependent.

The biggest short, medium, and long term beneficiary will be China where we import most things from. Over time, our own local industries will die a slow death. We will enjoy cheaper goods prices but our future children will have no jobs as our industries are hollowed out over time. We will basically become an economic colony of China

Yes, it is a good thing for naira to appreciate, but it is better for that appreciation to happen at a slow and steady pace to give the Ministry of Finance and the CBN time to make necessary policy changes.

I suspect the CBN would probably prefer naira not to reach N1000 to a dollar until around mid to late 2026, though I don't think they'll be able to control the timing of naira appreciation 100%. But, I can bet you that CBN will be buying dollars furiously if its data shows an impending destabilising naira gains. Buying dollars effectively means supporting the dollars against the naira

Some may be surprised by the idea of the CBN supporting the dollar against the naira, but that is part of the job of the CBN. Support the naira if there is a need to, and buy (support) the dollar if there is a need to.

One question for you.

Since you're worried about a steep rise of the Naira against the Dollar and you believe it's not a healthy "development", can you look at the trend in the picture below and explain to me why it was a healthy development for the Dollar to rise very sharp against the Naira between 2023 and 2024? - but not good for Naira to rise back against the Dollar (red line with circle) to 1000 Naira within the time specified?
