The United States is extremely weak without it's allies. They have never fought a single war without backing of at least 35 countries.

That's why it loves forming allies with dozens of countries.

Without these countries bases they cannot project power anywhere. That makes them weak.

They hide behind NATO in Europe.

They hide behind the Gulf countries in the Middle East.

The hide behind Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Australia in Asia.

Over 44 countries backing their so called superpower status. Living on the backs of others.

Okay as much as I don't support all these needless wars , bro which con3 do you think on a 1 v 1 ground can combat America and win with no allies, no backing , no support etc.. let's hear your thoughts on this.

What I see in all of these happenings is that , the perilous time that the bible talked about is near.. nations rising against nations etc . Like black eyed peas asked .. Where is the love ? The world needs peace not war , so unnecessary wars

You are one of the problems we have in this country

But why is it that when Africans commit crime against white people, they can be extradited to face charges and be imprisoned over there but when it's the opposite you hear things like their laws doesn't permit their citizens to be flown to another country for such

Any country can asert same law too as their local or national law as well. The best bet for other country to do is to follow the citizen is duely prosecuted and if found guilty be punished. Simple

Make I no just talk make dss no come pick me up

Good move but who will apprehend and prosecute offenders?

It's glaring, they fear for what will make Nigeria work .

True money can't buy happiness But still make money that's the true ..

Una go explain tire no evidence . . .

Oga Bulaba no well, he needs medical attention or rather he should resign immediately joor

I am not his fan but I will rather have him there no matter how many times he falls than for him to resign and give power to shettima , God forbid. North thinks they are Nigeria alone themselves. Late buhari did 8yrs , south should equal that too .

Nigeria is a Tourist Centre. In case you guys do not know.

Natural Wonders and Parks such as Obudu, Yankari, Erin-Ijesa etc

Cultural and Historical Sites such as Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove, Badagry Slave Route, Olumo Rock, Benin wall and artifacts, Ile-ife, Igbo ukwu, Nok, Sungbo Eredo, Mambilla, Ogbunike to mention a few.

Then there are beaches, plateaus, ancient castles, carnivals, festivals....

Our cuisine, cultural diversity and immense talent.

Nigeria has two UNESCO world heritage sites. If not for corruption and insecurity, the entire country is a tourist's haven.

You no lie chief ... How you forgot to mention ikogosi where warm and cold water naturally meet. A natural phenomenal site to experience. Nigeria is naturally blessed but bad governance and insecurity are just the red flags

It was a bitter sweet experience I'd not advice any young man to engage in. It's a game and the only way to win, is to be the user .

I knew this already but unfortunately I was blind sided and disarmed by the love I had for her 13yr old child. The child was so bright. I tutored her in mathematics til she became the best. I saw a lonely bright child who took me as a father figure in her school.

I was so attached and one day I was opportune to meet with her mother. I met a very beautiful young woman in her early 30's the day she came to drop off her child at school. Prior to this, our chat engagement was official and all about her daughter's growth. She requested that I drop all formality and desist from caling her "ma" . She called me babe instead and We both became informal with time and got very close. There was constant calls and communication.

She told me alot about her past , her 4 exes and how she's been alone. It turns out she was always the victim in all her stories . She's so pretty , why would any man leave such a woman? I kept asking myself. She learnt about our 5yrs age difference which was shocking to her but she was already deep into it and ready to go down.

THE ROMANCE

We became sexually involved and things were going down fast. She had great sexual appetite . She wanted me to marry her and was fond of calling me her child's soon to be father and how we were gonna get married. She's a fashion designer who is financially stable.


CRISIS

She had sudden financial crisis after embarking on a huge project. To assist , I tutored the child for free and I was assisting her occasionally with finances cuz I had lesson gigs fetching me 6figures.

Soon, I started to realise her sudden change of attitude. The calls soon dropped and we started to have alot of unresolvable fights , reason being that she would rather not like to settle the conflict when I want to, but make it linger so I'd have to beg her even when she was wrong. She never likes to talk about the unresolved issues, so we could trash it amicably and make amends where necessary.


POINT OF REALISATION

I suspected she was sleeping around and one day I decided to pay her a visit . On that faithful day, I heard her elder sister over a loud phone conversation " Jane, u really have my time today that you didn't go to man's house"
". I cringed on hearing that . This is someone who said she doesn't sleep around because of the stereotype attached to being a single mom.

They both laughed about it and she told her sister that she was currently with a man. The sister said further " what of bros? He say he no do again or when he go engage u?
" .

This time I felt the ground should open up . "Bros" is an elderly man in his 50's who wants to marry her. We had a fight that night and she denied that she had anything to do with bros and her sis was joking about her visits to men. We trashed it and made up with sex.

Next morning she was on call with a male friend who wanted to borrow money from her and she called him babe.

Note that, she's called a different male friend babe accidentally too and she quickly defended that she calls all her male friends "babe" . I told her it wasn't cool. She got defensive and even called another male friend and she told him I was jealous, they both laughed and she ended the call with " I love you and he replied too". We had a fight . I left and still came back to check on her. I was ignored while she was on call with her male friend for 30mins after which she invited him over with 2 other guys.

I asked why and what for. She boldly told me "whatever activities I have with my friends is not your concern , even if we have 10some
" .


I was saddened because this was someone for once I was ready to risk it all to settle down with. She was probably entangled in something I never understood. I discovered that she clubbed on Sundays , and would never allow her daughter come live with her. The poor child has been living with her grandparents for 13yrs. My girlfriend also abused weed and alcohol. I saw all these in her fridge

THE PREGNANCY

I was broken by everything and kept my distance but we still spoke. Early this year, we both suspected she was pregnant since she missed her period. We did a test and I found out she was pregnant. 4weeks 8days but I doubted it was mine after all the recent discoveries. To cut the long story short she removed it and bled for days.

The disrespect and devaluation kept on going . I was mentally unstable for a while and took Ill. I couldn't resume to teach and I lost my job. My mother was angry with me for having anything to do with her.

I broke up with her cuz I realised what I had wasn't real. I realised I never did anything that bad to deserve all the treatments I received. I was supporting and loving and was even a father figure to her child .

I'm without a job now but I'll be commencing a technical training for a better job offer. I'm still unstable and hurt but I'll bounce.

I'm one of those guys who don't believe in playing nice because ive been hurt before. I broke my rules and was disarmed by the love I had for a child and I fell in love with a lie. But it's all good. I learnt my lesson.

If all what you said is true , then where were you when they said that gender ? Fear them , many if not all don't genuinely or sincerely care about you chief. All of them are necessary demons. Gender that you can never understand them. People that don't have the capacity to love ? Fear them o

Op you omitted one which is the strongest..

Nigeriaphobia

Should this even be a talk from seun ... Who doesn't know that fela is dead

Keepamsafe:
Hello my Nairaland Folks and Pals. Im writing this with so much hurt and pain in my heart. Another girl I just met says she prefers we just be friends because she has a guy in her life but she wouldn’t mind coming around still.

Even the ones that says they don’t have a man, still rejects my advances of a relationship, rather still come to give me the cookie jar.

If I was younger, would be fun. But, at this age, I want real connection. Im not rich, but Im trying. I have some good days and bad. But, I believe I can take care of a serious partner. Its sad always getting tossed aside when you feel you have what it takes to be the main boyfriend.

Is there anyone else going through this? Is there anyway to change my status? I need help and advice pls

This is so sad and painful.

This guy isn't coming back anytime soon.

If na you nko ? Will you come back anytime soon? Nigeria is not a real place , things are not done properly at all cos most of us don't really care until it's personal. Oga no check junior oga , junior oga no check those below him , those below no really care weda or not they discharge their duties appropriately and proactively, so far government they dey pay them their salary and no one above is checkmating them. When heads don't roll no one really care to do their duties professionally in Nigeria. We really have a long way to go.

HgAkpobomeEr:

Factcheck0001:
so it was during tinubu regime that the problem started?

Election loss is making u people go Haywire that u can't think straight but add Tinubu to everything, even when the problem have been there before Tinubu was born.


See if u like go hug transformer, tinubu will rule u till 2031

Comment like this ,is why we are where we are today, didn't APC and tinubu call himself master strategist? So because the problem didn't start with him means he should increase it or leave it like that abi ? Smh he was shouting emilokan like when he gets there all Nigeria problems will be dealt with head on. now you wey the economy dey bite daily is here defending lubbish .

Kingosytex:
During the 1954 constitutional conference in Lagos, Awolowo raised the issue of secession. He predicted that at one point or the other, a region would want to secede from Nigeria but Zik vehemently stood against it and shut him down.
Zik used his influence to sway the majority who shut down the opinion.

After that, Awolowo again wrote to the the Governor General but the governor still rejected it on the on the grounds that majority led by Zik rejected it.

In fact, it's because of Zik that secession was made a treasonable offense, it's because of Zik that section (86) was inserted into the Nigerian constitution.

Thanks chief for the explanation I appreciate, now this is added knowledge
