Vic2023:
⚡️ Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi died, writes The Atlantic author Arash Azizi, citing a source close to the Iranian president.

He noted that authorities were allegedly looking for a way to break the news without causing unrest.

◼️ Iran doesn't seem like a country where presidents die by accident. But it is a country where planes crash due to the deplorable state of its infrastructure.

◼️ Raisi's helicopter, which also carried Iran's foreign minister and two senior regional officials, flew through the notoriously foggy and mountainous terrain in northwestern Iran. This “incident” could very well have been an accident.

Wetin concern deplorable state of infrastructure with helicopter crash due to bad weather?

America must really be in a deplorable state of its infrastructure for the number of helicopter crashes documented this year alone.

Wigwe was one of the victims.

Yeye western media

dvkot:
yea..no foreign parties involved or anything. It just crashed. Who flies a chopper in that weather?

Iran

Alamkir:
Raisi is just a figure head. Ayatollah Khamenei really governs Iran.

My point exactly.

Lastly, I think some comments should not be replied on this thread, we can all see they only troll.

Who in his or her right mind dedicate time into replying trolls?

Secondly: Why should any outsider (Not an Iranian) rejoice that a president of another country died when in reality he's not even the one deciding the main things happening inside Iran?

He can easily be replaced, so what exactly is their joy for?

If it was their supreme leader, I would have understood but for an elected officer dying due to bad weather is crazy.

Question: Did the weather change suddenly or they didn't forecast the weather before opting for Helicopter usage?

If this is not an act only criminals carry out, tell me why it's so difficult for a pastor to return excess amount paid by a member?

Does the criminal not reason with the sheepee?

Does the criminal pastor know if the ₦100k donated by the sheepee was the profit to be made on a ₦1m business deed to be carried out by the sheepee?

What if the ₦900k is to carry out the job?

These criminals keep bringing the name of Christ to dirt.

She was born in France.

Majority of Pro US european politicians were born in or schooled or married or gave birth to their children in the US.

Even some of Russia's elite who speak ill against the government are literally foreigners.

What were the Georgians looking at before they allowed such a person to become their president?

WriteerNg:
The foolish Georgian President doesn't even speak Georgian.

And did not step foot in Georgia until she was 30 years old.

She's the number 1 foreign agent.

How did such a woman become their president?

This is one of the reasons I hate the West. They keep planting agents in other countries so that such countries won't be independent.

Bullfallo:
All i have to say is tinubu government is favoring them and their family.

0/10

Failure is an understatement.

Even Robert Mugabe is better than tinubu. It took mugabe 20-40years to destroyed Zimbabwe and took tinubu just 1 day to destroy Nigeria.

The west destroyed Zimbabwe not Mugabe. Stop following your colonizers like someone without independent thoughts.

vastolord4:
So even Canadians spend excessively on burial.. some people said it's only the igbos o! 🤔🤔

The money is not to do party.
Its what you pay to put the dead body into the ground.


If you remove party expenses from Nigerian burials (Non muslim), you'd see that what's spent on the actual burial is minute.

Muslims don't even spend that much.

⚡Ex-Hamas Chief Calls on Muslims to Besiege US, Israeli Embassies.

Khaled Meshaal, a former Hamas chief who currently leads the group’s diaspora office, said on Saturday that Israel is continuing to commit crimes in Gaza while relying on US support.

“We call on our Muslim ummah to continue their protest and rage for this aggression to stop and to besiege the embassies of the US and the Zionist regime like a storm,” said Meshaal while addressing a conference on Palestine in the Turkish city of Istanbul.

Is this a religion thing?
These so called "leaders" keep making silly mistakes.

Those protesting against the injustice aren't just muslims, infact some of those supporting the injustice are muslims and Muslims nations.

Myopic man.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
That's why the Europeans colonizers joined many ethnic groups of different cultures, religion, language to become one country. So whoever is in charge, either you dance to their tunes or they use your fellow countryman to bring you down.

A divided country = Continuous cashcow.

Yet the Europeans have almost a country to Ethnic groups in Europe.

Ofunaofu:
Bola Tinubu didn't inherit an economy that has collapsed

Tinubu collapsed the economy through his thoughtless calamitous economic policies

You dey mind them?

Life was less bad under Buhari as it was less bad under Jonathan (Even though both were failures when compared with good governance)

What exactly did Buhari do that Tinubu hasn't outdone?

Can any sane person compare the last one year of Buhari to the first one year of Tinubu?

Everything went 360° once the latter took over, yet it's the former's fault?

Did the former make those self- defeating policies for the latter?

If the latter continued where the former stopped for at least a year, would Nigeria have been this worse?

The more asslickers of this govt keep blaming others for decisions made by their paymasters, the more they appear foolish.

Fash20:
That book was written in 1971 or so. It felt like the author was a prophet. The same issue Africans during colonialism is the same issue we're facing today. Nothing really changed just that the colonialism has been rebranded.

I highly recommend that book or the audio version on Spotify

In a nutshell, Africa remains a warehouse where the colonialists go to pick what's NEEDED to better their lives.

After all said and done, are we that helpless and hopeless to change the narrative?

Fash20:
But with the kind of system in place, I don't think that will ever happen.

Even our country was created by them for their benefit alone. We must go back to the drawing board if Africa must progress. I do not see any Sub-Saharan african country making progress with this system. Its rigged against us.

Smelling like the only way out is a bloody revolution

Fash20:
Yeah. Majorly external forces. The same external forces from days of king Leopold.

I listened to this Audiobook and I wept for Africa

I read somewhere that colonialiam didn't end in Africa they simply handed over to puppets that answer to them.

Whoever grows thick skin is quickly run down with their media and other puppets within govts and the environment and when he or she fights off these mechanisms, assassination straight!

RoyalUc:
By paying them what you owe them

You don't even know how to read

Fash20:
How do you think this can be achieved.

I believe that if one African can carry out a successful revolution and the right people are elected in power, and things get better for that country other countries will follow.

IMO, Revolution in Africa must start with education,sensitization, seminars etc. Our people are too dumb. They do not know alot of things. Most people don't even know what Nationalism means. An average Nigerian doesn't care about the country. He/she just want to make enough money to take care of himself and his family, grow old and die.

The curriculum must change

Enough of reading and learning about foreigners including the usage of foreign language to teach.

What's my business with what happened in the US when I am not taught about what happened before Nigeria was formed and why Nigeria should remain?

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Maybe when we start electing real African nationalist into executive position not those linked with drug in Chicago and whose educational background is unknown.

And these real Africans must be overwhelmingly supported by the people, else they won't last.


Ditto: Sankara T.

Fash20:
Lagos doesn't have one. In 50 years, if Nigerians keep electing mediocre leaders like we currently do, we will not be competing with countries like Egypt,SA etc. our rivals would be Congo, Togo, Malawi, Niger, Chad etc.

This will be bad cause our population would have doubled by then.

Congo is another unfortunate country.

The richest country in the world by resources (arguable), yet in ruins (caused by both internal and external forces).

lanre316:
What goes into a phone is more than the OS software. Hardware costs for a good phone is more than 30k. Expecting a 30k good phone from Huawei is just a fantasy dream

Besides, Huawei phones don't have Google apps, most customers around the world would not buy them for this reason.

BTW, why did you want Google to fail so bad. Google has been useful to everyone, be you pro-West or anti-West. You can hate the West, but you don't have to hate good products coming from the West.

Only recent Huawei phones don't have Google Apps.

jaxxy:
How can 2 of them travel out and leave the children behind? How irresponsible of them both.

it usually doesn't work out that way. it's either the family moves all together or one person becomes a citizen first then brings the others over.

From his lamentations we don't even know if it's the wife's fault like he is quick to assume unless they had a major issue.

It happens.

I know someone who left first, few months ago, the wife joined him leaving their son with the grandmother (wife) until he's done with nursery and primary education I suspect.

eweqwatr:
Mtshew, dependent husband for 10 whole years he kept depending?

10yrs of marriage.

Not that he was a dependent in the UK for 10 years.

Make una dey read before una rush to comment

Men should know that women are hypergamous aka gold diggers if you put yourself in a position where a woman's status is higher than yours your relationship is practically over. They look up to another person whose social stats is more than theirs, this is the way majority of women think. Don't be the fool to be scammed this way, always develop yourself to an extent where the woman always sees you as her hypergamous entity that will come and rescue her out of her misery else she will leave you alone.

Don't you ever sponsor a lady to be the dependent, go your journey and establish yourself before thinking of how to bring family over if you can stand the risk ...

Learn the art of never allowing your wife know your full worth.

My wife still believes I have millions hidden somewhere because of how I behave when it comes to money.

With this, they're always confused on wether to misbehave or not.

dvkot:
someone bought it for them

Just like cryptocurrency, when is Govt banning starlink and internet service providers?

Appleyard:
Do the maths.

In other words, Russia is the major oil seller to India, and India is the filling station that sells oil to Europe that sanctioned themselves from buying oil directly from Russia at a lower rate compared to what India is selling them.
I have never seen a set of bureaucrats that are this stupid and insipid in geopolitics like those in the Eurozone. Spit.

When you print money from nothing, spending it anyhow is no biggy.

Let currencies go back to being backed by natural resources and see them reset their senses

motymop:
New Caledonia is a colony under france, it is not other nations

Colony?

This is another way to say "colonialiam".

Ghostagain:
I don't know if you live in western Europe or not, but if you do, just stay away from discussions about who is not a terrorist, these guys will easy brand you a terrorist apologist and lock you up and takeaway your papers (even if you are a citizen, so long you are black) then they will send you back to the land of your ancestors.

You're not wrong.

There's nothing like freedom in the west.

You must either belong to the matrix or you're an enemy.

Everyone is being forced to think alike.

Invest in Nigerian startups

Go close to anything that has to do with Agritech.

Do business with any clergyman or woman of Nigerian origin.

Did Russia, China and Iran introduce LGBT to the USA ?
Mr Pompeo's lord might not be upstairs but rather down stairs in a very hot place🔥
