No Nigerian should take sides in this war.

Both Russia and Ukraine have a point. Ukraine does not want to be Russia's slave, and at the same time, Russia does not want to be surrounded by enemies for nothing.

If you back Putin, then you should also go and apologise to Bush and all past American presidents who bombed nations and killed people, and also messed up a lot of countries. You cannot defend Russian imperialism and attack America when it does the same. Both are wrong.

If you back Ukraine, then you should also know that Russia has suffered so many invasions with people killed over the years...because they did not secure their borders, or trusted nations too easily. There is no such thing as a good country.

Which leads to my final point. All of you backing NATO or Russia, or china, or Iran, or USA or whatever. If it is in Russia, or Ukraine's best interest that your village be bombed, they will do it with no apologies. That is the way of humans, and that is why you should not back any country in any war. Just siddon look, memorize, and in fifty years time you will be telling your great grandchild stories for his assignment on 'The wars of 2022'

I used to back USA , never again. If countries cannot see why they should not be ruled by dictatorships, then leave them be. USA is still paying for invading other nations years ago. Russia too is also paying, and will pay heavily for Ukraine. At the end of the day, countries should not attack other countries at all.

So, don't take anybody's side. Russia and Ukraine are right, and at the same time wrong.

It’s a baseless war!

If he was so concerned about National security, what about Latvia and Estonian? Them being a NATO allied poses more threat than Ukraine, so why is Ukraine different!

These are sovereign countries who have a right to affiliate .


If Russia was so good, why are most of his neigbkirong countries NATO allied ?

NL children dey praise Russia, say sanction no dey affect them. Lol. Ask people wey dey on ground first. But soon the jungle go mature reach where you no go even need ask.

Russia's media landscape is heavily if not completely controlled by Putin. In fact most things you hear from Russian media are just propaganda from Putin and his Oligarch friends' machinery for total control of their people and resources. The few that dare report otherwise are immediately snuffed out by Putin.

But silly NL children would come and throw jabs at America and Europe where freedom of speech is highest and media is so neutral it can even attack the government with impunity.

The more I read comments here, the more I understand why Nigeria is where it is.

Yet, they remain unshaken.

America finally did themselves in for humiliation by using a clown to fight their greatest competition and ending up pushing her into forming the greatest and most versatile alliance (Russia/China).

Russia- The largest country in the world by land size and several nuclear warheads to boot.

China- The worst most populated country with the highest number of naval fleets, and economy. Let's not forget India.

This is the definition of shooting oneself in the foot


What a shame to see how the cookie crumbles.

Shame on the EU puppets who have allowed themselves to be used as an even bigger pun who can't stay d up to their master deliberately sabotaging them both economically and environmentally with the bombing of the Nordstream gas pipeline.

America has murdered its hegemony.

Russias invasion of Ukraine was the most foolish action Putin could ever make. His action was motivated purely by pride.

If he didn't want Ukraine to join either the EU or NATO, if it strongly protested, America and the EU would have backed off not to incur its wrath. It's a resource rich nation with a lot for lose by the EU and America were they to paiss Russia off.

Putins daft invasion forced the West to implement extreme sanctions to send Putin s message that they will have zero tolerance this time for his antics.

Were China to attempt such with Taiwan, it's economic would collapse and sadly for it, it does not have a fortress economy like Russia. It's extremely interdependent on other countries for its economic sustenance will lead to financial collapse and mass unemployment.

No sir, you cannot justify many wars USA went into like Somalia, Libya and even Syria.

Why did they invade Iraq and kill their leader? For their own security? did they find any WMD? USA is just a bully and thank God for Putin Russia.

Do you know the history of the Cuban war in the 60s?

Una go just dey base una comments on sentiments and CNN propaganda.

Do you know the agreement reached with the west after the end of the cold war? It was agreed upon that NATO must not expand into Russian territory or even close to it.

Now imagine Russia going to set up a base in Mexico.

Only the ignorant believes the sanctions have much impact on Russia.

Russia's trade with China has increased by as much as 30% according to recent findings.

Saudi Arabia sees Ukraine as a Jewish Nazi state and are already parleying Russia and China.

Like you did not read my comment well...

I justified no US wars. I just said that if you want to justify Putin's attacking Ukraine, then you also have to justify US atrocities in Iraq and Afghanistan and elsewhere because like Russia, US went in to the wars for their own interests.

You either do that, or (I am going to be harsh here) admit you are a hypocrite when you support Russia bombing Ukrainian civillans, and say that US doing same is wrong and evil somehow....or you oppose wrong when it is wrong. US or Russia, and don't take sides in any war.

As the most hated nation in the west, Russia has been preparing for a day like this since the end of cold War.

Putin is not only a strong man but also a strategist... Despite everything western propaganda say about him, his people love him. Cos They know he is a patriot and everything he does is for the country. They don't want him to step down, cos western powers go use Russia do yeye.

Around 150m people cannot be all stupid.

And I personally think Russia is holding back in Ukraine, a smart hunter doesn't empty all his clips on a deer, when there are still lions and wolves patiently waiting to devour him. That's Putin for you, a former KGB agent cannot loseguard like that.

I don't support this war, no war is a good war. I just don't like west and their hypocrisy.

Know why? It's because Russia has an abundance of resources. It has all the resources/raw materials it needs to survive without purchasing from other countries.

There are many countries in the world that have natural resources but still poor. So, it's not just because Russia have natural resources. Having natural resources is one thing. Harnessing it to solve the problem of a nation is another.

Russia has scientific knowledge to convert their natural resources into what they need. That's why.
