I am tired of reading Zelensky said this or that. The guy got nothing to do right now than to keep talking.

If and when the US or Russia are ready, they will take whatever without him.

You Idiot with a coackroach brain, do you think you are talking to your illiterate family.
The equivalent of 1 dollar in Nigeria is 1500, what is the purchasing power of 1 dollar compared to N1500. The value of money is about what the money can buy in its local context. While 1 dollar might seem insignificant in the US, its equivalent in naira can buy more in Nigeria due to the lower cost of living. We have been through this before don't waste my time while sitting in front of your mud house this beautiful Saturday morning.

You mean some pro west don't know this?

Trump: I'm surprised my Gaza plan wasn't adopted

My plan for Gaza is good, but I don’t want to impose it, I’m just suggesting it.
I am surprised that Jordan and Egypt, despite the fact that we give them billions of dollars every year, did not support my plan for Gaza.

Why not suggest same to the land grabbers?

Thought you guys love the Zionists : why not let them move in with you guys on the stolen land of America?

The same Boko Haram you funded via USAID?

I laugh in 3D

WritterNg:
They keep holding meetings with themselves. More than 100 meetings since 2022.

Do they ever meet with the outside world?

These clowns have alienated themselves from the rest of the world. They've isolated themselves.

Just as they did when they carved African for themselves.

Scavengers only share loots amongs themselves.

Kudos

An African leader finally learned from the El Salvadorian's president!

I love this!

Poor, loud, arrogant, uncultured, ignorant and proud.

These are terrible combinations to have.

How can such a fellow get anyone to look his or her path?

What a shame!

You must be living under the sun.

Going to jail is a norm for him.

Appleyard:
We have long knew that Boko Haram wasn't sponsored from within, but from abroard.

Several years ago, eyewitnesses in some Borno villages told reporters that they were seeing military helicopters flown by White Men airdropping weapons for the terrorists.

I knew this since 10yrs ago

Appleyard:
One unredeemable Western bot called disobedience doing life in Langley's prison of disinformation still dares to defend the US in the face of the recent revelations. It tells you how pathetically twisted these folks are when it comes to accepting reality while leaking the US behind.

Spit.

Some of them are just defending their sources of income.

What if they also get paid from the USAID?

I support what is right.


Don't argue for the sake of argument.

Don't jump off the sinking boat now. It's too late my friend

LordAdam16:
The outside "interests" you reference do not care that much if we marginally improve to become a second world country.
We don't have to scrape the barrel as a third world country without constant power in 2025.
GDP (nominal) per capita of 4,000 to 12,000 is attainable.

The middle ground between the third world and first-world (as well as first-world adjacent) is up for grabs.
But we're not taking it.

-Lord

Because we primarily allow incompetent people supported by some sections of the West 'rule' us.

I still believe majority in the west prefer us this way.

He didn't scatter any thing he is fixing things.

Are you saying Biden and the west you support at all times scattered things?

🎯✅ Musk blamed Zelensky for the death of American journalist Gonzalo Lira in a Ukrainian prison.

“Zelensky killed an American journalist,” he wrote on social media.

Lira openly criticized neo-Nazis and the Zelensky regime. He reported receiving threats from the SBU, and in May 2023, the journalist was detained. In 2024, after torture and a serious illness, he died .

At most the Russians only jail them.

LordAdam16:
Imma be real with ya.

I don't think the West gives that much of a f* if we are a second world country.
Granted, we're not going to have the same GDP (nominal) per capita as Japan or Spain.
But there's a band between $4,000 and $12,000 where there'd be constant power, exports will be triple/quadruple what they are now, and upper/middle class will be able to buy new cars. That is attainable.

-Lord

I didn't quite get your message.

shoodboi2:
Yep, we are. The early US was openly corrupt, just like Nigeria. People openly bought votes, scattered elections, and stole money. All that changed over time as the quality of life of their citizens improve. The same thing will happen here eventually. How long it would take is what we don't know.

The difference then was leaders with no masters breathing down their necks.

Too many puppets here in Africa.

dvkot:
I hope the clowns in Taiwan are watching this

They've gone quiet.

PresidObi:
He should beg, not go tribal. He made the mistake, he should beg the guy not start feeling entitled in his mistake.

Stop justifying nonsense because we know who the criminals are, the people going through peoples farms and homes killing and kidnapping.

After 3 months?

LordAdam16:
You make a good point.
Some would argue we should skip that phase though.
There are now countless ways to be efficient in nation building and governance whilst keeping rapacious corruption under control.

The template is already laid out.
We just have to follow it. Observe and replicate.
But for whatever reason, even that is nigh impossible for us.

-Lord

Unfortunately all our leaders are puppets of interests interested in us remaining in this era.

LordAdam16:
Corruption is universal.

Any human being who wields authority or oversees a substantial flow of capital will seek to profit from it.

The difference between developing nations like Nigeria and the developed world is that they draw the line at letting corruption degrade QoL. Here we don't give a sh*t.
Stated differently, in countries that work, you deliver and skim from the margins.
In places like Nigeria, you don't have to deliver. You squander everything. Then appropriate capital for the same project repeatedly ad nauseam.

-Lord

I actually believe ours is at the early stages (or mid) of what old democracies also went through.

Kingsnairaland:
🚨BREAKING - Elon Musk and DOGE have discovered that there are 394 million Social Security recipients in the U.S.

Despite the country having only 334 million citizens, a discrepancy of more than 60 million.

Meaning Nigeria learnt ghostworkers from the US.

Every corruption practiced in Nigeria seems to exist in the US.

Democracy is not different from the makeup women put on.

shoodboi2:
It was on frontpage, but it was done cleverly to avoid implicating the US. Just look at the title: Boko Haram benefitted.

If it was Russia or Iran or China that did sponsors terrorists in Nigeria, they would have told us something like "Exposed: China funds terrorists in Nigeria" and would have made a news out of it.

US funds Boko Haram and we are barely hearing anything. We shouldn't be surprised about this because the same USAID funds many Nigerian journalists and media houses.

So, the media has to play cool to make sure the money keeps flowing in and to also avoid exposing themselves for being the terror accomplices that they are.

I believe this was why I didn't see it..

Fraudulent headline.

Maybe you have the link on the FP.

Lawag3:
When did mossad threatened Seun.


If anyone sponsored Boko Haram it will the Obama administration Albeit unknowingly .

Nigeria has been receiving US aid since the 60s .


The Obama administration gave money to buhari/APC. Buhari told Jonathan that he'll make the country ungovernable if he lost the elections.

Buhari's supporters killed youth Corper in the north on the aftermath of 2011 elections.

Boko Haram terrorism intensified during this period.

Jonathan always said that Boko Haram terrorist were political tools of certain politicians.


USAID was definitely used to mobilise people to protest the then fuel subsidy removal the same fuel subsidy APC still ended up removing. And no single protest at least not to the intensity Jonathan faced. People in delta then were paid as much as 20k to protest. 20k is a lot of money as of 2012.

There are pictures of some Nigeria politicians in the White House with Obama. Buhari and Rochas okorocha included.

Hell it was during that period Rochas became very rich all of a sudden.

Us gave the USAID THE APC used it to found terrorism to put pressure on the Jonathan admistration.


This is what I think happened sha.

Even if Biden and Obama come to your house to confess, you'll still find a way to excuse them.

I no get power to argue wetin no progress my life

For those who still support the US, i hope you are seeing how the US has been funding terrorists in your country since 2009?

seunny4lif:
Zelensky says he will build his own NATO, if real NATO will not take him.
And it will be better!
He also says Russia’s army is bigger than Ukraine’s and Europe’s army combined!
Recently he said they’re decimated and losing, now they’re huge again.

This one is gone already.

He's currently an illegitimate president.

I have not seen anywhere on Nairaland the news that the US was using USAID to sponsor terrorist groups including boko haram


Nothing on the front page
Nothing nothing

The video of the senator reading out these information is trending on tiktok.

Nairaland is a western tool, reason I now spend less time on it ever since Mossad threatened Seun by shutting down Nairaland a while back
