engrchykae:
deep within me I know what Islam is.
It is a menace
For Islam there won't be peace until everyone converts to Islam.
There won't be peace until Dar Es Salam
What kind of ideas is that.
The world is governed by the philosophy of live and let live.
That's why the world is home to every living things.How do you make sense
Which country does Saudi and Indonesia influence negatively to do bad things or perpetrate bad moves like you see America doing all over the world
When Jesus said sell your property and buy sword in the bible you did not see it,maybe it's the true Christianity America is practicing around the world since they have most christians in the world....you are just pained there are so many Muslims who obeyes what God said and they don't drink alcohol like you nor do so much immoral acts like you and you want something to equalize
But Islam says
The Koran
The sword or
The tribute.
Trying to say that there is no terrorists in Saudi, therefore Muslims are not terrorists is akin to saying because USA and UK don't condone terrorists in their soil that they are not terrorizing other 3rd nations.
They keep their home neat but mess up other people's home.

SisterAnn:
This minute fraction have impacted 90% of the general population, that's why.

SuperSupremo:
Population of your country or mine?

SisterAnn:
What they did is part of jihad.

NOETHNICITY:
I was told by my professor that every statement of fact must have evidence to support it. Do you have evidence to prove the correlation between the adoption of sharia many years ago and Boko haram?

Epiphany77:
Even in the use private practice of sharia takes place. The difference is that sharia is recognised in the Federal constitution of Nigeria.

discusant:
The evidences are legion.
1)
Boko Haram share same objective with the political and religious leaders of the far north Nigeria states who adopted sharia crimimal laws
Their objective is getting Islamic Republic of Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal laws.
2) There was no Boko Haram before the political and religious leaders in the far north states adopted unconstitutional sharia criminal laws. Boko Haram emerged immediately after your adoption of sharia criminal justice system.
3) Boko Haram should have been defeated if not that too many Muslims in the 12 sharia states of northern Nigeria sympathize
Sabotage of Nigeria.

UgoFly:
Except there's something else but I don't see their link with Boko Haram. I would have been shocked to see an Israeli Minister supporting a Muslim terrorist group in any way. These guys just capitalized on the crises to sell their tech to the govt

NOETHNICITY:
Your paradigm makes zero sense. Zero sense.

GreenCovering:
They deceived people to kill them and you call that jihad? Can you tell me how that is jihad? What aspect of Islam teaches this? I am trying to not look at you as one of those gullible nairlanders.

Because the holy prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) categorically states that:
"Whoever deceives us is not one of us"
- Muslim

SuperSupremo:
Islam is not about name,you can be called Abdullah or Mohammed and be a pastor or Ritualist it doesn't mean you are Muslim....you can be called Satan and be a Muslim.....
Anyway why do you judge Muslims that are very tiny tiny minority in the bush being Muslims rather than 99.9% Muslims that are in their homes worshipping peacefully
Why are the so called terrorists out of
residential areas and living in bushes?

mrkia:
Israel the fraud nation, always bend on fraud means to steal people's wealth

discusant:
How could they make any senses when you are on Taqqiya?
It's only another Islamist of Nigeria who can deny the common interest shared by Boko Haram and the sharia states.

NOETHNICITY:
I’ve not said anything, I only asked you for evidence which you failed miserably to provide.

SisterAnn:
IMF and others already control your going out and coming in but you obviously don't know it.

They know what you had for dinner and breakfast.

They already control your virility and fertility.

You are nothing but a pawn in the chess game.

I'm surprised you didn't know.

SisterAnn:
They killed them because they refused to join them in the jihad. Can't you understand that? Jihad is also a fundamental duty of Muslims right?

GreenCovering:
Yes jihad is a fundamental duty of muslims but these people unleash violence and aggression on people or do you count unleashing violence on people as jihad?

SuperSupremo:
So to you Saudi Arabia and Indonesia run terrorists groups in other countries right
Tell me the names of those they run and I tell you America who has most christians in the world does a million times worse of it and the whole world knows

SisterAnn:
Nothing wrong with the moves of both Ehud and Epstein here.

They were techy businessmen who sought to bring their technical expertise to support Nigeria in the fight against terrorism and get paid for the job.

But Reps at the assembly at that time shut it down because of politics ably financed by APC Tinubu to cripple every effort by Jonathan to set Nigeria free because they were preparing to be president in 2023.

Such an evil minded selfish political tragedyist!

Report: How Epstein, ex-Israeli PM exploited Nigeria insurgency to push surveillance, oil deals


by Claire Mom


Ehud Barak, a former prime minister of Israel
Jeffrey Epstein, American financier and child sex offender, worked with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak to profit from the Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, a Drop Site News (DSN) investigation relays.

Email exchanges released by the US Justice Department from 2018 showed how Epstein facilitated talks between Jide Zeitlin, then-chair of Nigeria’s Sovereign Investment Fund; and Sultan Ahmad bin Sulayem, former chairman of DP World, a United Arab Emirates (UAE)-based logistics giant.

Epstein died in a New York jail in 2019.


PROPOSED OIL DEALS

Part of the talks were centred on how Zeitlin could wield his influence in Nigeria to help Sulayem secure possible shipping terminals in Lagos and Badagry after talks with previous Nigerian presidents, since 2005, had led nowhere.

DP World was reluctant to invest in an industrial zone in Nigeria unless they could own the surrounding port outright.

Sulayem resigned from DP World on February 13 after his relationship with Epstein became public knowledge.

Epstein corresponded almost daily with Barak who worked tirelessly to grow an Israeli-Nigeria security relationship.

Epstein quietly began helping Barak leverage his security ties in Nigeria to set up energy investments for his friends in Israel — after Barak resigned as Israeli defence minister in 2013.


SPY TECH

Epstein explored other ways of penetrating Nigeria.

“We should think about the growing emerging role of cards and phones in economic exchange and the future of money,” Barnaby Marsh, an investment advisor and friend of Epstein, told him after the financier sent a snippet of “Tale of the Slave” to him.

Marsh also shared an article on the use of electronic identity cards and biometric databases in Nigeria.

In 2015, Barak and a business partner invested $15 million in FST Biometrics, a firm founded by Aharon Ze’evi Farkash, former head of Israeli military intelligence.

The company’s core technology, a biometric system known as Basel, was deployed at the crossing between Israel and Gaza to control the movement of Palestinian workers.

While the Nigerian military battled Boko Haram, Barak facilitated the sale of similar biometric surveillance equipment to Babcock University and framed it as a counter-terrorism measure to deter the Islamist extremists from attacking the Christian institution.

The technology was also touted as a way for African governments to control movement of populations at scale, with Israeli intelligence firms marketing the security architecture as “field-proven”.

The security cooperation offered an appealing way for Barak and Epstein to generate cash from chaos in Nigeria, while also promoting the political interests of the Israeli government, the DSN investigation noted.

In 2020, the World Bank subsidised a partnership with the Israel National Cyber Directorate and Toka Group, another ex-intelligence startup co-founded by Barak, to work directly on Nigeria’s national cybersecurity infrastructure.

The released emails showed that the security deals were only a cover for Barak to access Nigeria’s rich petroleum resources, with Epstein’s steady guidance.

Meanwhile in 2013, Nigerian legislators learned of a secret $40 million intelligence contract awarded by then President Goodluck Jonathan to Elbit Systems, an Israeli military technology giant, to develop online spying infrastructure.

The country’s house of representatives threatened to shut it down.

Barak later received an invitation to speak at a cybersecurity conference in Abuja, in September of the same year, two weeks after Epstein made an impromptu five-day trip to Africa.

Nigerian media urged speedy passage of a pending Cybercrime Bill, a comprehensive legal framework for online surveillance, after the house of representatives voted to suspend Elbit’s contract.

Two days after the cybersecurity conference, the senate voted to advance the bill.

Barak was prime minister of Israel from 1999 to 2001.

I just read it. Though this link is not active. The writer had a foresight. We are all sitting on a gun powder in Nigeria. Give or take it, there will be civil war in somewhere between 5 years and 10 years from now. I hope those who have plans to leave the country leave before then.

SisterAnn:
Was it not with sorrow, tears and blood that Islam spread in northern Nigeria and across most of the world? Which kain question you dey ask me sef? Abi e get something else wey you wan hear from my mouth?

Mummy see oo 😧
