You still don't get it....I used the word boots on ground... They will not use their own army but they will create militants locally and use them

Learn how to read please
You are the one with the lack of understanding. Read what I wrote again with a clear head.

You said they will not use their own army. And you condemn them using another militia.
I am asking you what else should they have used if they do not use other militias and the army of your own country is filled with saboteurs?

Question is: Do you want them to use their own army? If your answer is yes, than that is a stiooopeeed thing to do as it risks mutiny for them. You don't expect a soldier to voluntarily decide to go and risk his life for a matter that is not directly affecting his country. Learn how to think please!!!

The distrust among the Three major tribes and also the two major religious groups is scary

Corruption is what is glueing this country together, the elites from the three ethnic group and the two major religion are feasting big on the Country being together

Without Corruption and the game of sharing the national cake together.. He don tail way country for scatter
This post is the core of the issues with Nigeria. We don’t love each other and see everything from a religious and tribal perspective. Remove religion from the equation and the simple answer is terrorist are killing Nigerians. Am sure we all blame the government but when it’s election time the politicians start beating their religious and tribal drums.

Then you see some Muslims from the north saying we need to support the present government so power can come back to the north. Some Christians in the south will say the south should be in power for 8 years. Insecurity and other issues are no longer the priority, zoning is more important.

Since we don’t love each other and can’t see ourselves as Nigerians first, then we need to face reality and understand that the American system of government we copied is not working. We need a new system and in my opinion regional governments is a good option.

Each region has a prime minister and congress. Each region has equal powers and is responsible for the security and welfare of the region. This way insecurity in the north east is the responsibility of the government in the north east.

I know this is not a clear cut solution but if we continue with the current system nothing will change in 50 years.

Two interesting facts about the Russia-Ukraine war:

šŸ”¹Ukrainian military doesn’t have enough ammunition, armoured vehicles, tanks etc. This is why the spring offensive didn’t materialize.

US/EU can print money but not weapons.

šŸ”¹Russia has a unique strategy: Consolidate the gains, fortify position, wait for Ukrainians to attack, and annihilate the enemy.

This is more efficient than trying to advance and more occupy regions. For now.

Once the Ukrainian military is sufficiently weakened, Russia will capture more regions and advance all the way up to Odessa — the coloured regions below.

(That’s my analysis, not the official Russian objective)

YOU ARE SUCH A LIAR!!!
The TRUTH is that Ukraine is able to muster 1 Russian body for every 37 dead Ukrainian soldiers they receive. The reality is that the frontlines for Ukraine have collapsed and they are now kidnapping people from Hungary to feed their war machine.
Hell even the UK was running numbers until the West shut them down and that result was 12 Ukrainians dying for every 1 Russian.

The Russians have air superiority, better and far more drones and the only active artillery of the field. They simply sit back, pound the Ukrainians into oblivion and they sweep up the remnants.

How about telling the truth you absolute idiot - you are doing Ukrainian people NO favors by lying.

⚔Border regions of Finland with Russia lose 1 million euros daily due to severed ties with Russia.

Bloomberg reports that the absence of Russian tourists, whose numbers used to reach 2 million annually, has led to the closure of shops, hotels, and spa complexes. Unemployment has risen to 15%, and many workers in the forestry and steel industries have been laid off.

The Bloomberg article quotes representatives of the Finnish business community who admit: "easy money from Russia is gone forever."

#BREAKING #UkraineRussiaWar Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 1343:
Situation on Konstantinovskaya front: Russian army secured new positions at the entrance to the southeastern outskirts of Kostiantynivka city over the past 72 hours. From there, small reconnaissance groups continue to destroy Ukrainian defenses in the Stare Selyshche and Santurinivka districts in preparation for a future serious assault on these positions. Meanwhile, Russian forces continue to secure their rear areas, primarily Predtechyne, a position necessary to secure supply lines and begin occupying the H-32 highway in the Stupochky section. Currently, Russian troops continue to push from the recently captured Olenivskyi Forest and advance to the southern outskirts of Predtechyne, which will make it difficult for Ukrainian army to hold its positions on its western outskirts.

The 2 most important men in the Ukrainain military, Syrskyi and Budanov are currently in Pokrovsk trying to organize the city's defense.

If that doesn't tell you how important this city is to Ukraine then I don't know what will.

When Russia finally captures it, the clowns here will say it's just a tiny city with no value.

They're already beginning to say that it took Russia one year to do that, when we all know Russia only just entered Pokrovsk about 4 months ago.
After pokrovsk there is no major city all the way to dnieper River. Also its open marshland no where to hide from drones. Lastly no major rails to supply Ukraine troops

Even if there's regional autonomy who then controls the central government?? Besides all region are not the same, some are more developed than others, some are more richer in terms of natural resources

But Las Las this is our only home, we have no where else to go.

You may be right, am just thinking out loud. There is no central government in that system, one prime minister will represent Nigeria yearly. Another name for Nigeria will be the United Regions šŸ˜†.

I just want something else, what we have ain’t working.

Oga first of all to claim that any sane Nigerian is not in protest against the killings in the north is an insult and a lie. A lot of Northerners have done more than you or me, to put an end to the killings. Be Humble.


Are Christians Dying in Nigeria due to insurgency? Yes as a matter of fact they are, But I believe it is not the "premeditated genocide" as the media pronounces it.

Nigeria has the most church buildings destroyed in the world, and also a high number of attacks on Christians in worship centers. Now looking at these facts as an outsider, the conclusion instantly drawn is that Nigeria is no safe place for christians, or proof of genocide(which is true). But it is very necessary to understand that these are symptoms of the insecurity that has plagued Nigerians since the APC set its sight on power as a matter of fact more mosques and Muslims have suffered in comparison to christians besides fewer christians recide in the areas of interest than muslims.. (i believe anybody that ignores this fact is a hypocrite)
My conclusion is this, Yes Christians, are getting killed by extremist. But It's not the "premeditated genocide story" that Trump is spinning...
A woman was hacked to death in Abuja for preaching the gospel. Guess who did this... The same lots who block public roads in the name of prayer. Deborah was also murdered by the same people on the account of some perceived blasphemy to their so-called prophet. And then you talk about insurgency?

Omo I believe it is very possible for the US , it not impossible for the US deploy forces in Nigeria.
- Nigeria no be Ukraine no Russia as a neighbor. Our biggest African military and political giants are damn far away (talking about Egypt and South Africa) for the US to be bothered about disturbing the peace of a strong countrys borders by deploying troops near her.
- Trump has made it clear as the US VS Terrorists. I believe Trump is looking for a way do show the US Military might he has been itching to prove how strong the US is. he
has proved this by making multiple similar threats to a number of countries, putting his military on a high level of preparedness.
- If the government decides to oppose or resist him, I don't think arming proxies would work in trumps favour, he's looking for a quick victory not something that would drain American resources over years.
- If trumps is gonna do something he does it big that should be clear by now.

I am wondering why ethnic cleansing does not legally fulfil the definition of genocide. Honestly to me, it looks like a lacunae.

Genocide is defined to be the systemic and deliberate killing of a particular group with a view to eliminating them........ this definition stricto sensu doesn't say the group has to be a religious group.

Your views on this:
Cc: Hoaxen, obedience4, usmanpogo

All other sensible contributors.
Take note: sensible contributors alone please..
The thing is that in the case of genocide the intent is clear; To eliminate the targeted group itself, killing them, preventing births, or destroying their culture (and mind you, this is why I refuse to accept that the Gaza case is one as their birth rates never drops). I think a good example of this is the Holocaust, where Nazis aimed to exterminate Jews and other groups.
But ethnic "cleansing" is to make a territory ā€œpureā€ by driving the unwanted group out. This might not necessarily be to kill them all.

we are talking about the actions of and deaths caused by and terrorist groups and bandits, You are referring to a broader topic, about Islamic Extremisim in General. If you are saying that in general Christians are and have suffered from percutions in Muslim state I agree with you, but the argument is about who has suffered more in the hands of terror groups.
