Germany has no right to dictate to Nigeria who to befriend. Upon its industrial knowledge and strengths, the Chinese are the ones working with us in developing our railways and power stations, not Germany. Nigeria has the right to befriend anyone, be it North Korea, Russia or Canada.

Make we hear word abeg...

Well, no more any longer. We nay other African countries should seize the opportunity to partner with anyone willing to share technology, patient capital and know how with us. Be it China, Brazil or any other country. At the same time, no country has the right to tell us what to do. I cannot recall Tinubu telling Germany whether to accommodate Ukrainians as refugees or cancelling Russian gas contracts.

Useless man saying useless things. You guys are worst

1000% TRUTH

10thTenthMan:
He is an idiot.

A BIG FAT IDIOT. AND, HE CAN ONLY TELL THAT TO THE IDIOTS WHO HAVE AGREED TO LISTEN TO HIM. What does he expect? These countries are picking the lesser evil. I DONT LIKE IT, BUT HE HAS NO RIGHT TO PREACH AGAINST THE SAME THING THEY ARE STILL SHAMELESSLY DOING.

The German Consul General’s warning to West African leaders against partnering with Russia reeks of the same imperialist arrogance that has plagued Africa for centuries. While he accuses Russia of playing a "power and resource game," the West—Germany, France, the UK, the US, and Canada—has perfected this very exploitation, disguising it as "aid" and "development."

Abi make we talk about resource theft & economic strangulation too? For decades, Western corporations have looted Africa’s minerals, oil, and gas while leaving its people in poverty. France’s CFA Franc keeps 14 African nations economically enslaved, forcing them to deposit 50% of their foreign reserves in Paris. The UK’s BP and Shell have plundered Nigeria’s oil, causing environmental devastation with zero accountability. Germany’s Siemens and Volkswagen profit from cheap African resources while lecturing Africans on "good governance."

Do we mention the Regime Change & Instability caused by Germany and her so called allies including France? The West claims to promote democracy, yet it overthrows leaders who resist exploitation. France’s assassination of Thomas Sankara (Burkina Faso) and America’s role in Patrice Lumumba’s murder (Congo) prove this. In 2011, NATO destroyed Libya under the guise of "human rights," turning Africa’s most prosperous nation into a terrorist haven. Now, the Sahel nations (Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger) are rejecting France, and the West panics—not because it cares about "terrorism," but because it’s losing control.

Should we talk about Fake Aid & Conditional Support? Germany boasts of €500 million in "stability projects," yet it arms Saudi Arabia and Israel, who fuel wars in Yemen and Palestine. The US spends billions on AFRICOM but refuses to stop terror financing from Gulf allies. When African nations seek alternatives (like Russia’s Africa Corps), the West suddenly remembers "human rights"—the same rights it ignores in Palestine, Congo, and Sudan.

Africa Must Choose Its Partners. The West’s hypocrisy stinks. It steals resources, destabilizes nations, then offers pennies in aid while blocking real solutions. If Russia, China, or any other nation provides actual military support against jihadists (unlike France’s fake "Barkhane" operations) or infrastructure without colonial strings, Africa has every right to choose them. The era of Western monopoly over African sovereignty is over.

Enough with the lies. Africa will no longer beg for scraps from its exploiters.


ONCE AGAIN SIR, ON BEHALF OF MANY SANE NIGERIANS, YOU ARE AN IDIOT SIR!!!

Have you ever set foot in Mali or Burkina Faso?

When France acquired Nuclear Weapons they decided to do a test not in Europe but in Algeria and who were the soldiers closest to the site Africans!

It was the Soviet Union that Stood by and supported Namibia, Angola, Rhodesia(Now ZImbabwe) and South Africa in their struggle for freedom Not France or Germany

Russia never colonized any African country

And have you been to Mali or Burkina Faso?
Because I haven't been there.
No reasonable person would have supported the apartheid regime against the real owners of the land being oppressed but mind you, political interests doesn't necessarily mean support
Now put your "support" in context please,so much support like North Koreans are currently getting now from putin's Russia right?
Russia in just looking anyone or anything against America.
Stop deceiving yourselves, no country will singlehandedly develop you if your policy makers aren't doing the right things.

If Russia or China by mistake or by foolishness attempt to do what USA do for the world most especially Africa and Asians, there won’t be any country called Russia or China again. Do you know how much US give to Africa countries yearly? In what aspect of life would you say America aid is not involved, is it in health, education, human right, refugee, mention it. They help all countries with huge amount of dollars yearly. If US decides to stop all their aids to Africa, even you would die of hunger and disease.

SA abused US and make mouth, but it became glaring to their eyes that without US they would probably kpai, what did they do? They shamefully went to US to beg for more money to survive.

You all should start activating your brains to think and reason and be appreciative of what the US is doing to humanity instead of reasoning like all this “free free Palestine” jihardist. US may not be 100% perfect, nothing in this world ever would, but they are doing better than their excesses.

Russian auto giant AvtoVAZ enters Nigeria with spare parts hub, local assembly plant

https://c76c7bbc41.mjedge.net/wp-content/uploads/tc/2025/03/Avtovaz-factory.png


AvtoVAZ, Russia’s largest automaker, which is majority-owned by the Russian government, is expanding into Nigeria as part of a broader strategy to diversify operations beyond its home market. The company plans to establish a spare parts hub and service center at the Lekki Free Trade Zone in Lagos before the end of 2025, marking its most significant push into West Africa’s largest economy.

The automaker is also in talks with the Nigerian government to set up a local assembly plant, a move that could aid its long-term presence in a country where new car sales are outpaced by demand for used vehicles.

AvtoVAZ’s expansion is in response to increasing competition, particularly from Chinese automakers strengthening their presence in Russia amid ongoing talks of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Great Wall Motors, a Chinese manufacturer, plans to boost its production capacity in Russia from 150,000 to 200,000 units by 2025. Hyundai and Renault are reportedly plotting a return to the Russian market after a ceasefire deal is reached.

Seeking new growth avenues, AvtoVAZ is looking to Nigeria’s underdeveloped but high-potential automotive sector, where annual vehicle demand stands at approximately 720,000 units. Local production meets only about 14,000 units.

AvtoVAZ plans to tap into Nigeria’s push for alternative fuel vehicles. It will partner with a Russian engineering firm to establish a compressed natural gas (CNG) conversion plant, allowing Lada cars to be equipped with factory-fitted or locally converted gas-powered engines. While AvtoVAZ will supply the vehicles, the yet-to-be-selected engineering partner will handle the conversion process, according to Adewole Opeyemi, AvtoVAZ’s official representative in Nigeria.

“If you bring CNG cars to Nigeria, you don’t pay any duties, which is why we are in talks with the relevant agencies,” Opeyemi said. “Some Lada cars will arrive with factory-fitted gas-powered engines, while others will be converted locally by Russian specialists.”


https://techcabal.com/2025/03/26/avtovaz-enters-nigeria/

Nice one. I once owned brand new lada saloon car in the early 90s, strong as a rock, engine never faild, never had to change parts such as shocks, bushings etc. Body nko, strong kakaraka, real iron. The only issue was over-heating in traffic as it did not come with extra radiator fans. If I remember right is cost 50k back then while a daewoo racer very base model was 95k, then the normal trim was 110, esperio was about 140-150k.

Congo's cobalt is $6 billion dollars ($6,000 million) per annum, which is eventually carted away to the west in exchange for $500 million in the form of 'aids' and 'financial assistannce'.

Let me break it down for u in case u are not a maths student: the west gives congo 8.3% of what they cart away! (That's less than 10%).

Only African policy makers can bring the required changes for developement?
That North Koreans don't have freedom in the 21st century?
Sir,please you don't have to agree with my opinion or views same as other people about yours.

Hahahahahaha,the Nazis Germans who still have not refused to acknowledge that they committed genocide in Namibia and other African nations that they colonized are now telling Africans whom to choose to be friends with,isn't that crazy?

You sit down at home open Google and think you know sh**T about so called Tuaregs . Have you ever met a Tuareg in your life? Do you know their history? Did they ever sit down with the French and agree the boundaries with Europeans. All you need to do is look at the map of the so called Sahel. All you see is straight lines drawn by Europeans to create all these nations. What or who is a Tuareg. Were they consulted before those borders were drawn for you to call them rebels

Futbol... really?

Anyway, africa needs its resources for itself.... as everyone uses theirs for themselves WEST, RUSSIA, CHINA.
If the west want to go into economic war or form alliance they should do that with their own resources not mapping africa into their silly games. You just have to marvel at how Europe, a small village managed to secure and extract for itself an entire planets resources including the people themselves.,,mtchew silly except RUSSIA (the resource richest country on the planet by a mile) & CHINA. Both have definitely been there for Africa since the times of colonialism.

Nevertheless, CHINA is the absolute worst! These guys see nothing wrong with colonialism as a concept and in reality, are excited for the opportunity to flex themselves on poverty stricken people. They have no problem looting africas resources for their mother country and showcasing their status as the new masters EXACTLY like the west did i.e. They Admire And Want To Copy The West. They want to REPLACE & REPLICATE china into Africas subconscious giving their language, culture & god (in their image) to Africa as well in some sort of superior race nonsense.

I just watched a documentary some days back where the Chinese have secured some rights to fish in Gambia. They put up a fish processing plant in that country where the locals are employed to process it for EXPRESS shipment to China where they are used for PIG feed!
This in a country that humans don't even have enough animal protein for themselves...

America almost always fields an all Black Basket Ball Team at the Olympics. An All Black 4 X 100 metre relay team and so so. They so in the interest of the GLORY of the USA . It is not a form of GIVING
Those blacks are their because they are descendants of SLAVES
None of the countries where those slaves came from shares in the glory of the Olympic gold medals

France colonized several African countries and as a consequence has Several migrants from countries they colonized who are black or Arab , If they field a black World Cup Team . It is to the glory of France Not any African country so it is not a form of GIVING

Russia did not deal in Slaves and they did not colonize any African country so they have very few black Migrants and so few if any black sportsmen for exactly the same reason that there are no White footballers representing Nigeria or Ghana/

What really matters is how Black Men are treated in France every day
How Black men are treated in the USA everyday. Fielding them in sports is not giving Africa Anything
Last Week Trump gave accelerated Asylum to White South African farmers claiming they were facing genocide. He would find useful hediotts among Black Africans to justify that.


When South Africa was under Apartheid oppression. They got full military support and training from the Soviet Union . The same thing for Zimbabwe and Namibia and Angola.

So Russia has a better record of positive contribution

Your examples of sport are unintelligent and grovelling. The words of an enslaved and conquered mind

There is nothing inherently evil about the West, and if you think there is, then the problem is YOU.

Listen, Russia is being careful to not allow western influence in their country and taking one step at a time.

Many Africans students have studied or have studied in Russia for free. Those that couldn't study for free, tutiton is cheap and no proof of funds.

You can make an average of 500k to 1m in Russia as a student, especially if you are in Moscow or Petersburg.

So your definition of good people is by allowing people in your national team?
