Saw Quiet Place: Day One.

Film was enjoyable.

I thought it was kinda dumb how Sam's nurse attracted one of those monsters simply from ripping a piece of cloth yet Sam is protected by plot armour when opening a tin of cat food and nothing ensures.

8/10

Very very good

Its a false news report by BBC or at least the headline is propaganda. You lot need to do some actual independent research first before blatantly believing a made up story that neo-imperialists could use as a guise to intervene and coup Ibrahim Traore.

According to the story, the bill was suggested by a singular minister but no bill has actually been passed illegalizing homosexual acts and hasn’t even gone into the parliament or been approved by Ibrahim Traore. Funny enough, the quote the justice minister, Edasso Rodrigue Bayala, talking about homosexuality that BBC claimed could be found from the original article AFP (which is a French owned, their former colonizers, broadcast station) is nowhere to be found which is extremely sus on BBC's part.

So, in conclusion, homosexuality hasn't actually been criminalized in Burkina Faso. At least, not yet if ever.

Even so, its a bill a man like Sankara would have never approved of since he was a diehard Socialist.

👀👀👀

The currency has degraded so much that ₦360m is just $226,166.

Thats barely anything in a country of 218 million people and a high budget film like that would be considered a major flop if it was produced here.

Holy shit.

Imagine so many Nollywood directors being such hacks they have to resort to using AI art now for their covers.

Just saw Horizon: An American Saga Chapter One.

Longest goddamn western I have seen (3 hours). The start was so sluggish and female and villains so one-dimensional, I fell asleep. And none of the three self contained stories really connected or intertwined at all in the end.

The Harder They Fall is a vastly superior Western film.

Creeper:
There are still some Proto-Bantu groups in Nigeria. Tiv, Ekoi, Efik and Ibibio have varying levels of Bantu. And the Igbos have still have a small level of Bantu admixture.

West Africans have different migration patterns. Ancient West Africa was called ‘Sudan’. And there were some that expanded from the Mauretania and North West Africa area, after the empire built there collapsed due to flooding. They later built the Ghana empire and kept expanding. And rest migrated in different migration waves - from the present day Sudan/Ethiopia axis.

I believe there was also an indigenous gnome group in West Africa prior to the arrival of these new groups. But archaeologists are still trying to determine what happened to them.

To make things simpler with a picture below, Niger-Congo family stretches from Dakar, Senegal, at the westernmost tip of the continent to north-central Africa. Bantu is just a branch of the larger Niger-Congo family like how Germanic, Slavic, and Romance are branches of the Indo-European family.

Also, the people who built the Wagadou or Awkar also known as Ghana (which is just a title for kings meaning Warrior King) and the Mali Empire were the Soninke and Mandinka apart of Mandre, Niger-Congo family. Before Wagadou was even a thing, settlements in what would become one of its first cities were founded by the Mandre, Soninke people etc and thats also where the first Sudano-Sahelian architecture was born first made out of stone. The only places like the soon to be most famous city of Timbutku were originally Amazigh, Tuareg, agricultural settlements before it was incorperated into the Mandinka Malian empire. Amazigh are a branch of the Afro-Asiatic family.

Nigerians waiting on a magical genie in the sky to solve all of their problems, I just love it.

We have ourselves to blame for constantly electing the same two corrupt crime syndicate parties that will make Nigeria as poor as the rest of the Sahelian countries until we have another coup run by another tinpot Junta that will blame the West for our woes. According to the IMF, our Nominal GDP has declined from a 500Bn dollar economy to a whooping 390Bn dollar economy not like it even matters anyway since most of that wealth was kept to the few thieves looting and put into Swiss off-shore bank accounts. This is what we get after rejecting Peter Obi's blueprints that would of put Nigeria on world stage and position it deserved.

Amazing how the Arab nations used their oil wealth to better the lives of their people and country while the black man just loots and leaves their nation to languish in poverty.

A country as corrupt and crooked as Nigeria never deserved the title in the first place.

At least Egypt actually cares about their world standing and the well-being of their people unlike us. Of course we had a chance last election with Peter Obi but we f.ucked that up by electing a druglord as president.

Rossikk:
This crazy white Eurocentric thief and bodyguard for European lies actually came on this thread?

White devil, I thought you'd disappeared from Nairaland with your satanic lying self.

''Our inferiority complex as Africans''?

YOU ARE NOT AN AFRICAN.

YOU ARE A WHITE racist devil and PRETENDER who comes here trying to con people that you are an African. And then having gained their trust, push racist anti-African Eurocentric lies that seek to 'whitewash' Africa's glorious history.

A couple years back I challenged you to speak a Nigerian language, by writing down a line in your native tongue, and you could not.

YOU RAN AWAY.

THAT CHALLENGE REMAINS.

WHERE ARE YOU FROM AND WHAT LANGUAGE DO YOU SPEAK?

Type a few words in your native language let us see, Mr ''African''.

''Our'' indeed.

There is no ''OUR'' with you and us.

You are NOT one of us.

You're a satanic person sent to make us ignore all the massive evidence in front of us about the glorious African past, and accept the manufactured history of black insignificance invented by your THIEVING white masters who have no real history of their own and have sought to steal and whitewash the history of black Africans who civilized them out of the savagery of the Caucasus mountains.

Keep trying and keep failing.

Dirty little maggot.

Ahh, so his a larper then?

Obi1kenobi:
Slavery was pretty ubiquitous in the Benin Kingdom. Usually not the Obas themselves trading with the Portuguese and subsequently other Europeans that came after, but the constituent nations of the Benin Kingdom that paid tribute to the Oba, like the Itsekiris, were prolific slave traders right up to the late 18th century.

Itsekiris people were of the Warri Kingdom that emerged in the 15th century and was originally under Benin's authority but Warri became increasingly independent beginning in the 17th century fool. It was a independent state by the turn of 18th century (refer to the map) when the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade had reached its peak and the only time Warri rivalled the state of Benin. It was made as the base of operations by the Portuguese and Dutch because the Benin Kingdom stopped dealing in the sale of slaves in the 17th century as it was seen as taboo in Benin society.

I note where you said above that the Oba "banned male slave exports in 1516". So were female slave exports tolerated? Is it a ban on the institution of slavery if it's conditional on your sex, or whether you're a war captive, or criminal, or whoever?

Export of female slaves was legal up until the 1600s when Benin no longer participated in the sale of human beings to European slave merchants on the coast and like I said from the information you decided to leave out, the sale of slaves was banned by decree throughout the kingdom.

"1522, that is 40 years after the discovery of the New World and 42 years after the commencement of the Tran-Atlantic slave trade, the records of Manacihin Fernandes, a Portuguese Merchant showed that out of the 83 slaves purchased from Benin, only two were males. And this purchase was made after a whole month of waiting at Ughoton in a vain attempt for a market to be opened for male slaves. Infact, his hunch was that even the two male slaves purchased were acquired outside the Oba territory. To further demonstrate the lack of enthusiasm and zeal on the part of the Kingdom with regard to the sale of slaves, the 81 female(mostly between 10 and 20 years of age)were acquired ay a very slow rate of one or two a day; between the 25th of June and 8th of August. As the century wore on, Benin stopped completely from cooperating with Europeans in the business of the exportation of humans(Aisien, 2001:172)."

Its also what makes the limey claim funny that they were the first to ban slavery when considering slavery was still legal throughout the empire until basically 1838. By then, plently of countries had abolished slavery before the British like Haiti that permanently banned it via revolt in 1792, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Chile, Honduras, and Uruguay (some of the few Latin American countries that respected their oath with Haitians for providing support via arms and men).

Even during the time Benin did sell slaves to Europeans, the Oba's made it extremely difficult for said Europeans to attain slaves from the Kingdom. The first couple hundred slaves Benin sold to Portugal ended up in other parts of Africa and the Portuguese controlled archipelagos like Sao Tome and Principe. The Benin Kingdom economy was never reliant on the slave trade, like at all. Trade consisted of Cloth, Benin Peppers, Palm Oil, Ivory, redwood, and other agicultural goods to Europeans such as the Dutch.

Honestly, your sad attempt at trying to paint the Benin Kingdom as proficient slavers like in your first comment isn't passing the laughing test. My primary sources also bunk your flimsy, uninformed claims.

Obi1kenobi:
Do you have a source for the emboldened claim? Cos through West African history, the Benin Kingdom were pretty well-noted, prolific enslavers and slave dealers (many Edoid people today are almost proud of that fact when they insult other tribes as having been enslaved by them)? It seems you're deflecting from that by making unrelated claims about Egypt - which you claim to be a Eurocentric lie (in your typically paranoid conspiracies) even though the scholarly consensus of Western archaeologists was critical in busting the myth that the pyramids weren't actually built by slaves.

Benin Empire banned male slave exports in 1516 as prohibitted by Oba Esigie and especially after 1530 when its textiles industry began to thrive. And later the trade stopped altogether in the late 1600s. The Portuguese were forced to move to Warri for slaves.

read Thornton or Ryder.

Basically, the slave trade in the Benin Empire was seen as taboo and merchants caught practicing in the illegal trade were severely punished by decree and only criminals were sacrificed. The British didn't invade Benin because of "slavery" lol it banned centuries ago but they got fed up of Benin's protectionist policies that stopped British influence regarding trade.

Its nothing more than white supremacist propaganda that a blanket statement that all Africans as if we are all a monolith part-took in the slave trade and sold our "own" people to Europeans and Arabs.

Right.

I am a few months late to this conversation but time to debunk some bullshit. I will just copy and paste of what I wrote on Reddit.

-

Benin Kingdom wasn't really involved in Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade nor did they rely on it either. They made their wealth selling goods like cloth and palm oil and agicultural goods second such as their sought after Benin peppers. Oba's made it extremely difficult for European slave merchants to buy slaves until it dwindle down to nothing forcing Euros like Portuguese to move their bases of operation to Warri.

Since European slavers called all of the Gulf of Guinea the Bright of Benin and didn't bother distinguishing between between Benin and Warri.

Refer to Images below.

Since I can only post 4 pictures at a time, here the 5th.

The few couple hundred slaves Benin Kingdom sold to the Portuguese in the 1500's ended up in other regions in Africa (gold coast, to work on gold mines, & Portuguese controlled archipelagos such as Sao Tome and Principe in the 1500s and 1600s until Benin completely stopped cooperating with European slave merchants in human cargo in its entirety.

Benin Kingdom economy was never reliant on selling humans as cargo to Europeans as other African Kingdoms were such as the Dahomey who were built on it. Benin Kingdom even manufactured its own guns (despite having trouble with flint lock as Japanese did) and cannons using Portuguese and British cannons as models. Currently, there are 3 canons crafted by Benin blacksmiths housed in the British museum.

Book - Sir Ralph Moor and The "Benin" Cannon Of The British Museum and The Royal Armouries by Ronald Bishop Smith.

As I quote "It excited my surprise to see here two or three small pieces of cannon, of British and Portuguese manufacture; but they were not mounted, and had perhaps been produced as models for imitation, as the country abounds in iron; but for the expense attendant on working the mines, there is, comparitively speaking, very little wrought to perfection. I saw, however, some swords of their own manufacture, which were very well turned out of hand; and was credibly informed. They could make muskets, with the exception of the lock, in great perfection."

- CPT James Fawckner

Oba Adolo literally made it a decree that any Bini merchant who engaged in the act of slave trading illegal would be severely punished. The slave trade was taboo in Bini Society.

Bini Kingdom literally abolished slavery more than 200 years before the British did, lmfao. When the British tried sanctioning Bini Kingdom, they weren't affected. People need to realize not all Africans part-took in abomination of the slave trade.

Zxcvbnmghtr:


What the man and the woman is wearing is an ORIGINAL not an IMITATION of our colonial Masters. Any tribe you see that pride themselves in any attire that is ORIGINALLY an attire of the whites as their own TRADITIONAL ATTIRE . Just know that such a tribe belongs to the list Lord Luggard said they met running around the bushes with leaves tied around their waist to cover their genitals. Hahahaha....

Are you talking about the Yoruba's Aso-Oke that originated since 1400 CE?

Its pretty much the same as today's Aso-Oke with some minor differences though it looks nothing like the "white mans" attire if thats what you mean? The first photo is from the 19th century pre-colonialism and the other from 1910. Here is a modern comparison of Aso-Oke.

Also, European colonizers would lie, exaggerate, and overgeneralize all the time when it came to things in relation to Africa.

The fuel subsidy wasn't actually removed, they are still paying for it.

Its amazing how we managed to elect someone worse than Buhari I didn't think possible.

SyrusdeHansome:
I believe this current administration may even be more confused nd corrupt than the previous one. Just watch out.

for real...

Ruke1989:
tribalistic, religious bigots who make up 60% of African population actually voted for their wicked leaders. So the joke is on the citizens not the leaders.

Which country would that be?

Last I heard in Ghana, Ghanaians in their masses are literally dying for a third force they can rally behind thats actually for the people and not for politicians hungry bellies. NPP and NDC are massively unpopular.

That is not true. The history says it all. It was not China that plundered, and still plunders, the DRC for donkey years. It was not China that butchered the Himba tribe in Namibia, the first genocide committed on an ethnic group/race. That was where the Germans learnt work before the Holocaust. What about apartheid, was China involved? When China was constructing rails in Tanzania even when she lacked the expertise as she did today, where was the West? Na China enslaved blacks go America, Brazil, Caribbeans?

Oh, shut the f.ck up.

You have to bring up ancient history from a hundred to hundreds of years ago to think you have a point? Nations change, and what Western Europe and America were back then aren't the same Western Europe and America they are today. Granted America not so much considering they have destabilized the Middle East but that was due to their Right Wing government that pulled US into a forever war after the bombing of the Twin Towers trade centre but that is besides the point. Same goes for China pre and post-Maoism cultural revolution that destroyed their own culture, values, and morals. They are not the same China as they were back then.

I dont like the West either especially when they threaten to sanction us when we dont accept their shit or come to give us lectures rather than invest but,

Look at what China is currently doing to Africa NOW and how they are treating Africans IN Africa today. Here I will even help you since you been living under a rock.

I am so glad more and more of us Africans are waking up to this shit. China is a racist, totalitarian, unbreathable shithole. You couldn't pay me any amount to live in an anti-freedom country like that. You don’t any right in their country but when they come to Africa our thieves who call themselves our leaders will hype them up and give them our biggest contracts to handle all the while they treat Africans like shit in their country.

Lovely couple rocking it our traditional Yoruba garments.

Same thing with Ghanaian man in Kente Cloth back in London in the 1950s when Africans wore their traditional clothes with pride and without fear of being different.

RobbStark:
Tinubu as a president have no clue as to what governance is, all he is concerned with is just to answer president. Empty skull.

The same subsidy he hurriedly announced that it has come to an end in his inaugural speech is the same stuff he is paying now with the level of suffering it has caused Nigerians.

God punish Inec, APC and all their online and offline supporters.
It will never be well with you guys

If the LP and PDP team up as well as the North who has turned their backs on Tinubu, by 2027 APC won't even win the needed 25% vote to win the national elections.

The National President of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN), Festus Osifo, has said that the Federal Government is still paying subsidy on petroleum.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that this comes despite President Bola Tinubu’s declaration in his inauguration speech that the subsidy era was gone.

Osifo, who is also the President of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), said that due to the cost of crude oil in the international market and the dollar-to-naira rate, the government still pays subsidy for the product.

“They [government] are paying subsidy today,” he said on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday.

“In reality today, there is subsidy because as of when the earlier price was determined, the price of crude in the international market was somewhere around $80 for a barrel. But today, it has moved to about $93/94 per barrel for Brent crude. So, because it has moved, then the price [of petroleum] also needed to move,” the PENGASSAN boss added.

Osifo said the only way for the government to stop subsidising petroleum is to manage the exchange rate effectively and increase the supply of fuel.

“The only reason the price will not move is when you are able to manage your exchange rate effectively and you are able to pump in supply and bring down the exchange rate,” Osifo maintained.

“So, if the exchange rate comes down today, we will not be paying subsidy. But with the exchange rate value and the price of crude oil in the international market, we have introduced subsidy.”

The fuel subsidy has existed for some time and kept petrol prices artificially low. However, the measure costs the country billions annually, and its governments have promised to end it, including Tinubu. He eventually declared it ended, leading to a sharp increase in the commodity.

The president acknowledged the challenges facing Nigerians in the wake of the subsidy removal but, in July, rolled out measures to cushion the impacts.

To “reduce the burden”, he pledged at least $264 million for agriculture, $165 million for small and medium-sized businesses, and $99 million for manufacturing.

“In the short and immediate terms, we will ensure staple foods are available and affordable,” he said.

https://politicsnigeria.com/just-in-tinubus-government-still-pays-for-petrol-subsidy-pengassan/

If the oil subisdy was really gone, then billions of dollars would of been freed up and channeled into other sectors of the economy (or most likely looted) like education, healthcare, and desperately needed infrastructure but that doesn't seem to be the case. Just one of the many lies the drug lord, warmongering, election rigging Tinubu has told like his forged credentials.

Ironically, Nigeria despite owning largest oil refinery in the world even though its privately owned by Dangote is still exporting oil to be refined and re-imported with us still having to pay high prices for petrol.

Anyway, I told you guys he has no plans for this country, its just going to be another wasted 4 years. He would be lucky to win the Northern vote in 2027 after sanctioning and threatening to invade our little brother Niger multiple times.

NinjaMetahuman:
and that's the biggest flaws of democracy.

It makes the losers too emotional.

The way I see it, the voters are also partially to blame for electing these people into office in the first place and not holding their politcians accountable. People would rather blame colonialism that ended decades ago instead of taking responsibility for their own actions. Most African nations are nearly 100 years old now and we are still at square one and still the poorest continent in the world despite being blessed with so many minerals.

All African politicians have to do is make false promises. Win votes by commissioning infrastructure like a 1km road or something. Or blame all their problems onto a vulnerable minority group like the LGBT or a tribal group for example as a cover up for their own incompetence.

Also, 99.99% of African constitutions are poorly written with an unequal distribution of power mostly given to the president. Insitutions are are also weak that allows a breeding ground for rampant corruption.

Its not that Democracy doesn't work in africa, lmfao. Democracy can only work with an educated populous that can hold its government accountable. Hit them where it hurts, by voting these bozos out otherwise nothing changes.

Gabon was already a dictatorship considering Ali has been in power since 2009 I believe.

I would support the overthrow of the military if they held civilian led elections back to democracy soon after but it's more than likely they will just solidify their own power and become new dictators.

We have seen this happen in Chad, Guinea, North Sudan, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Zimbabwe, and now Gabon. Then again these countries have always been politically unstable.

It just gives the impression that most Africans lack the thinking capacity to run a functional democracy. Only very few african states such as Botswana, Namibia, Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Zambia, and Ghana are actual democracies.

Timbuktu is currently under siege and Jihadists are doing an effective job kicking Mali Junta's ass as well as Wagner. I bet when everything goes south, the Junta will hightail it out of Mali along with his looted wealth and live out his days somewhere in Europe.

Not long before Bamako is taken.

Insecurity was there along while France was there as were all those other things you listed, so don't you think they need to kick France out and gain proper independence?

https://www.nairaland.com/7785281/niger-coup-france-being-punished#125093333

I never denied that insecurity wasn't already there while France was stationed in places like Mali for instance but it was the Malians who begged France to come and save their ass when the Jihadists were about to take Bamako while they were destroying historical sites and burning books important to Mali's history.

French foreign legion came and pushed out the terrorists into the Northern part of the country. Security was better under the Foreign Legion than it currently is under the Junta and Wagner group. Jihadists and Separatists now control large chucks of Mali (40%) and most of Burkina Faso.

https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2023/04/27/rampant-jihadists-are-spreading-chaos-and-misery-in-the-sahel

So much for the PMC, Wagner thats unironically located in rich mineral towns looting country resources while killing civilians in the countryside while broadcasting propaganda in the cities to rump up support for Russia while diverting attention to what their doing. Wagner are about as useless as the Russain military thats getting slaugthered in Ukraine. Long story short, these countries wont exist for much longer.

Before the Junta takeover in Mali and Burkina Faso the French were arming, training and sharing intelligence with the terrorists that massacred civilians in villages (including women and children). On top of that, when they bought military equipment in order to defend their villages, France and her allies managed to block the equipment abroad while they were counting France as a partner. After that stabbing in the back by France, they decided to terminate all the agreements they had with France. Luckily for them, there are other countries that are willing to help. They have acquired a lot of weapons from Russia, China, Turkye, Iran, etc. Now, the terrorists are getting crushed really hard. Their last support was Mr. Bazoum, who got kicked out by his own army. This means game over for France and her terrorist mates.

1. Citation needed (from a credible source).
2. Read the above.

What has improved is that their former colonial masters France and the west generally has been put on alert that it will no longer be business as usual. This will emboldened other countries to free themselves from western slavery.


Let me ask the same question, what has improved in Nigeria after 24 years of civilian rule?

And look how well thats going for countries like Niger, virtually bankrupt, blocked from development loans, and cut off from international trade to grow their country. Feels good man! Free themselves of what? You keep peddling populist narratives, what exactly was Niger, Mali, and Burkina faso "enslaved" of? Almost as funny as people peddling the populist lie that France got most of their "uRaNiUm" from Niger.

Nigeria has one of the fastest-growing rates of HDI globally. HDI is the summary measure of average achievement in key dimensions of human development such as morality rate, GDP per capita, Life expectancy etc that have seen an improvement since the end of Abacha regime.

There is no such thing as a good autocratic nation. They always and without fail morph into human right abusing dictatorships. Just ask the Congolese what they think of Paul Kagame and his regime. Ugandans living under Museveni. How about the North Sudanese before the civil war kicked off between two power hungry wannabe dictators. We simply dont want to return to the 20th century style African dictatorships.

Max24:
Those that are romancing Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger militaries don't know what they are doing. They are embittered souls.

I agree but these countries were already politically unstable to begin with.

All of these coups we have seen in the past few years from Mali to Niger are populist movements. Your usual populist decolonize narrative: "We against France and puppet elites in Niger". Most of Niger budget came from international foreign aid which is now gone, virtually a bankrupt state cut from financial system. They have been cut off from development loans from World Bank and IMF. China has stopped working on the Niger Dam. They have no electricity. Skyrocking food inflation etc. Junta obviously didn't think things through, this is why they wont survive under sanctions for 6 months straight before they come running back to the negotiation table.

Same thing happened to Mali. They were crumbling prior to the lifting of sanctions until they promised to give a deadline for a transition back to civilian governance.

Security has only gotten worse in Mali since France was kicked out and there might be a civil war soon since UN was also told to leave that gave Northern Mali most of its food/water/medicine.

Taylor90:
Says a dunce that can’t afford 10 liters of fuel

Since the removal of subsidy where has the money been channeled to good use

Mumu

Strange, I dont remember telling you what kind of earnings I make?

Also, I dont know where the money has been channeled into shit for brains but I'm explaining why removal of the fuel subsidy was a good idea if implemented properly. Everything has its negatives and positives, the money freed up from the federal budget CAN benefit other sectors of the economy and the fuel subsidy removal can benefit workers and poor Nigerians, if the process is carefully managed and implemented by Tinubu administration. A select few benefitted from the subisdy, the subsidy was an avenue for the few of Nigerian politicians, and Oil marketers to loits. If you really thought the oil subsidies were a good thing for the average Nigerian, you are dumber than I thought.

Taylor90:
This one no get sense

If you have nothing to worthwhile to say, then keep your trap shut. The throwback of removing it increased prices of petrol but it freed up resources for other sectors of the economy. Federal government spent large amount of its budget paying fuel subsidies which can now be spent elsewhere like education for one

Taylor90:
What has improved since Tinubu took over

Whataboutism, the worst argument on the internet but I will give you one, removal of the oil subsidy.

Security doesn't seem to be one of them since 50% of their territories are now under terrorist or separatist control, thats worse than Nigeria.

Shut the f.uck up Mario, stupid pasta clown.

When will idiots DIFFERENTIATE conventional war to insurgency.
