Let's assume that the headline is true. Issues like this is why countries like Russia will never agree to the dictates of the West. Is it not clear that Nigeria will be in trouble if we refuse to accept the conditions of the West? Ordinary social media, we don't have! If Google deactivates and Mark decides to shut Nigerians out of Facebook, WhatsApp, and IG, don't you all think that Nigeria and Nigerians will land in a big trouble?

Ordinary Twitter ban and Rinu and other Twitter warlords wanted to die (despite free access to VPN and Google playstore).

Even the satellite we launched during Jonathan era was not without the help of the US.

Please you people should allow Russia be! Events like this is why China banned some US-based social media apps from its space! Everybody must not accept Western rule.

And to the people bringing religion into this "simple regional crisis", please remember that Russia is predominantly Christian! More than 60% of its population are Christians. As a matter of fact, their brand of Christianity is better than America's, where men knack their fellow men.

Dont you think its actually a foolish thing to call someone else 'foolish' for simply airing their opinion?

Meanwhile in your 'wisdom and intelligence', you think Google Maps is the only GIS software that has street names? You really think a sophisticated military like the Russians' would be reliant on Google Maps (a US trackable app) for its navigation? These same Russians that have satellites in space but you think their military would be stupid enough to attempt using Google maps?.... Is this the wisdom you profess that makes you think the other fellow (@AroleOduduwa2) is 'foolish'? Wow!

If only Nigerians are 1/10th interested in Book Haram vs Nigerian military. There is something about White people that Africans find intriguing. If Boko Haram's menace is in France, Nigerians will be organizing daily marching and prayers for the people of France grin

Lol this one loud o. �� Well Putin is making a mistake. If I were him I will get my Soviet Union back. Make friends with your neighbors no matter the cost. Invest in them. Open your borders and trade openly with them you will win them over. It's obvious Russia got only Belarus poor of him! America is busy being Ashawo to many countries you think they're crazy. China just realized that now. If you have a younger brother you want him to love you you give them gifts and pet them no be gara gara all the time. Putin will fail woefully!

Google map was never used in Russia as it is seen as an instrument of the West. They have their own map providers (Yandex) that provides this service across Russian, Ukraine and Other Countries in that region. Continue with your Propaganda.

Roscosmos even has Glonass satellites that rivals GPS accuracy to account for situations like this where the US Army can Bleep with them by changing the value of GPS locations which will in-turn cause real confusion.

Except that these new age soldiers are not as well trained. Don’t be deceived by the mirage and the gra gra. Reports have it that some of the Russian soldiers weren’t even informed they were going to Ukraine or even told if they true extent of the mission. At least a captured young Russian soldier confined this. They just follow command.

Russia don’t need google to move around Ukraine.
In war, countries uses paper map to move around.

Like I wrote earlier, Kiev will fight with her last oxygen as long as they continue getting help. It is clear that these people are as smart as Russians. Hmmmm!

There used to be 3 great cities during the USSR days, and they are: Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev.

Hmmm. What will this war lead to?

You people are the ones who are very funny. You don't get it. Russia can no longer see traffic patterns meaning areas congested with Ukrainians - citizens and armed forces

So how do they guide their missles to places either inhabited or not, is it with Google maps? What happened to GPS satellites? What of Yandex owned by Russia?
