I agree with this. In the future, all debates and arguments or provocations should be done in the thread below.

Lets not forget 07-09-2017: The great thread war / Thread war 1.................let us not repeat the same mistake!! a Thread War 2 will be the end of this thread!

Nigeria is the giant of Africa. Period. The sooner other africans accept this fact however painful it is the sooner africa chats a better future for itself working with Nigeria. This is what Britain did acknowledging America´s leadership after the Suez fall. South Africa is expected to do the same or continue to wane into insignificance in Africa´s geo-political equation. You can deny all you want for national pride and ego but the indices point to that fact whether now or in the future. South Africa rather will find its relevance in a working relationship with Nigeria not outside of it. It is still an important country. On the map Egypt and Algeria may be in Africa but geo-politically speaking its interests does not lie here; they are not arming for Nigeria neither is Nigeria arming for them. They have their bitter histories of internal conflict and conflict with european powers and Israel to make them continuosly be in a state of war for which they generously spend. Nigeria is not at war with any state. If there was an existential external threat it would arm appropriately for that. Nigeria´s military planners today contend with 14 internal threats chief of which is Boko Haram and same time plan for potential conflicts across Africa. It buys what it needs and not what it wants. Nigeria´s military is africa´s most secretive and for good reason. Nigeria´s navy chief will tell you his boys operate some of the most sophisticated assets but won´t give anything away until the shooting startsNigeria´s air chief will tell you the F-7s are very good aircraft and makes you wonder but guess what they are up-arming. The Nige. rian Air force today can deploy on multiple theaters of war. Senegal on the door-step of Gambia has an airforce but only Nigeria could deploy air combat capability over Gambian airspace many kliometres from its homeland. Air power is not just airframes but actually an organisation that can bring it to bear in combat effectively. Pls dont mention Chad, it has no pilots and no airforce rather a dictators mercenary protection unit which can be sabotaged on the ground by special forces. You want us to believe a lie that the chadians captured land against boko haram? Last we checked It was the Nigerian army that still cleared Dikwa not Chad who was given a beaten and took heavy losses fighting rebels like rebels with little to no armour. Mali? Nigeria withdrew its combat forces cos the UN will not give it command which if it had the story will be different today but Joe Biden and Yankees were too jealous to allow it going to the western press to yell falsehoods abut us being unprepared: shear jealous seeing the speed of our rugged deployments with C-130s. Let francophone africa continue playing Paris script until Nigeria outgrows France economically. Uganda run by a dictator who emptied his Central Bank to buy Sukhios with no air to ground munitions to play african strong man but in a war with Kenya will lose. If Nigeria was in somalia the story will be different because of its air over-lay capacity and army on the ground. But no Museveni wants to have command but Nigeria said no its our commanders calling the shots or you carry your cross. So we gave them our police. You ridicule Nigeria for Boko Haram which if they existed in anyother african country that country will cease to exist. These are Islamafascists who come to die and not fight and which it has defeated against the odds. Nigeria just like anyother country has its shortcomings and challenges but its natural place of africa´s leadership is irreversible except it implodes from within which is the way empires fall and not by external military aggression. Nigerians as a rule must know hegemons are hated by lesser powers and should of course understand that hate expressed here by some; you can´t wish it away. You can reel off numbers of weapons and equipment but wars are won with a combination of factors: political, economic, military, strategic global alliances and most impotantly people and by that i dont mean numbers but human capacity and that Nigeria is not lacking. Nigeria alone will be producing 40% of Africa´s GDP in some 20 years. Lagos alone is about 35 african economies combined. Kudos to the Nigerians here who stood up for the homeland against hate. Our african brothers we dont hate you even if you seek our downfall at every turn like when we faced the worse evil of all time: boko haram. Nigeria will prevail. This debate will be interesting. When time permits...

The only giant you're is the giant of cassava consumption.

You're economically invaded and besieged by South Africa. South Africa is fast putting it's nails in your economy.

The future world doesn't involve mass labour, it involves automation, digital crypto currencies generated by high electricity output something South Africa clearly has an advantage of 10 times than Nigeria. This is not the 20th century where bigger populations meant mass markets and mass labour. The new workforce in the next 2 decades is AI and high business taxation to provide Universal Basic Income.

You have a very high population, low tax collection rate, low HDI. You won't be able to provide UBI to your mass population..... Another Boko Haram will be born.

South Africa has a low fertility rate, higher HDI (better literacy and better education) and therefore producing better citizens for the new age economy.

combination of two great military quotes

For peace, I'm posting this picture of the South-African Recce as a sign of friendship, at least in this thread.

I have blurred the operators face as a bonus.

I'll defend my Nigerian national interest with photos only.

I'm not having another debate anymore. I had to put that guy in order.

You don't have to respond to any provocative post, just ignore it.

I'll bring it down by 12am. Exactly!

However if you still object, i'll bring it down immediately.

Not on bro!!! Not on!

Everyone is now scared or probably don't know where to start but I guess it's better to just post pictures and videos only.

No more dick measuring here

Lol ,you couldn't beat rag tag boko haram ,you can't keep your power on 24/7 ,your budget mobilization is below par, South African companies dominate Nigerian marketplace ,your HDI is lower ,still can't get rid of polio .......and yet here you're thinking you 're gonna rule africa? SELF DELUSION is okay to have but it can be risky.

Our Army, Our People, Our Country
Reminders: Favorite Pics of The BH War: Nigerian Combat Soldier Praying To God Before Deadly Fighting With BH Terrorists. War Is Not Picnic. This may just be your last - soldier you are already dead - victory or death. Nigeria will avenge you. We will never forget.

This would have been better


The grey colour tdayof mentioned was true.

Favorite Pics of The BH War: The War Years of President Goodluck Jonathan, 14th President of Nigeria In C-In-C Military garb. Whatever His Failings His Generals Led The Six-Week Blitzkrieg That Saw The Recapture of Gworza And Baga. Still it was too late to save his presidency. No no not the press, military historians take note. It was a magnificent battle.

To all the brave men & women who have made the supreme sacrifice, We are forever grateful
