Foreign AffairsRe: JD Vance Accuses Israel Of Manipulating US Public Opinion To Prolong Iran War by runningriot:

The overlapping and incoherent amendments of the INEC as well the controversial judgements of the Nigeria court of justice is as a result of how deep rotten the country is. It is a political sham that day in day out Nigeria can't afford to make it right in adjustment and amendments of some institutional laws in line with the constitution of the country as a result of how all systems have become political control by the government of the day.

Seriously, defending game is no longer working in football again! Unlike before it works but since from Arsenal vs PSG many coaches studied that game and it is fairly working in world cup. No single game in this world works with packing the bus all teams that played such are now out of the competition.
Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Threatens To Bomb Bridges And Power Plants Unless Iran Resumes Talks by runningriot: 1:14pm On Jul 15
Basicend:
This is an outdated news.

He had started bombing them since the past 4 days in a row.

Iran is receiving it left, right and center now. I really pity Iran. With the way things are going, Iran will be a bigger pic of Gaza in the next few months honestly.

IRGC are clowns. Their only leverage is the strait of Hormuz. But US and some secret arab nations are levelling their ground to dust gradually.

They can't face Israel again, they know Bibi dey wait for them. They can only threaten Gulf nations that have not yet sent billions of dollars to them as compensation.
Bro indeed you dey follow the news even though this particular statement was made yesterday. However, they are been roasted like chickens... They are absolutely out of the equation! Fast-forward to now empty drums has been beating, now that it calls for action coward noise is made. Even as I am typing right now Iran is been smoked out with precision strikes according to CENTCOM. I wouldn't love them to bomb civilian infrastructure sites like bridges and energy or power sites but the Kharg Island is my focus point let it be bombed into ashes and be taking over. Since the can act in an insensitive and inordinate manner let them also test their own medicine.

Iran doesn’t have military bases in close proximity to US to carry out such attacks
By now the base would have been smoked into ashes or perhaps had been made a tourist or exhibition site.

Iran has no leverage on the second phase of this war every military strike is conducted in a meticulous and conspicuous manner... they are receiving the heat from every angle they will hardly last with this form of coordinated strikes.

The second phase of the war is obviously in Iran disadvantage and the US has an upper edge. I was only expecting that the US will play the big brother role and become the guardian angels at Hormuz for free to maintain the earlier status quo.

The truth is that if US is doing same thing that they are bullying Iran not to do they are only operating under the guide of might is right and that is in itself criminal and illegal. The status quo must remain the same before the advent of the war.
Foreign AffairsTrump Says US Reinstating Blockade On Strait Of Hormuz And To Charge 20% Levies by runningriot(op): 5:27pm On Jul 13
"The Hormuz Strait is OPEN, and will remain OPEN, with or without Iran. We are reinstating the THE IRANIAN BLOCKADE, so named because it is only stopping Iran’s ships or customers from entering or leaving. All other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait.

"The U.S.A. will be, from this point forward, known as 'THE GUARDIAN OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT,' but as such, and as a matter of FAIRNESS, will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped, for any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the World. The process and formation will begin immediately." Source BBC

Foreign AffairsUS Struck Submarine And Ship Maintenance Facility In Overnight Iran Strikes by runningriot(op): 5:18pm On Jul 13
US Central Command (Centcom) says, in an update, that American military forces struck a submarine and ship maintenance facility in Iran overnight.

It says multiple one-way attack surface drones hit the port at Bandar Abbas Naval Base in southern Iran, and shares video footage of the operation.

The US had previously said it conducted its strikes in response to Iranian attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Source: BBC

May his perfect soul rest in peace! It is is not easy for you to be a security personnel the sacrifice that follow suit is too much for any citizen not to appreciate you. By virtue you are the highest patriotic citizen of your country. You left your family, relations, friends, comfort, ecstasy and many more to be at risk for others to be saved. No amount of money, no amount of praise singing is equal to this sacrifice may God bless our gallant security personnel. Amen!

I am not interested in going to abroad even though I can't reject such a juicy opportunity. However, despite the fact I am not happy with the state of Nigeria I will be happy to make it here and live a fulfilling life here haven't said so I am not triggered by any interest to make my comment it is bored out of the erratic and irrational behavior of Iran and IRGC. It is not by force to use your water ways in Strait of Hormuz.
PoliticsRe: Obi Commends Cardoso-led CBN Monetary Policy Reforms by runningriot: 7:44pm On Jul 12
This is what we call a trailblazer leader dishing out constructive criticism when it is necessary and applauding the government when it calls for. This is the kind of politics that drives towards the people not bitter ones that centers on Ad hominem and Red herring. Saying the truth doesn't mean you can't differ it only means you are mature in your style of politics.
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Says Strait Of Hormuz Closed 'until Further Notice' by runningriot: 7:02pm On Jul 12
Interestingly, IRGC is biting more than it can chew. It is evident beyond reasonable doubt that the hardliners who are hell bent in holding the world into ransom are foolishly and audaciously trying to go rampage and carnage as well become a hard nut to crack beyond the shores of Iranian leadership through the democratic elected leaders. Apparently, They are toeing the the parth and instructions from Ayatollah Khameini jrn but let it be told unequivocally that they will met their waterloo very soon the day of reckoning is obviously knocking. Conversely, because Iran is already becoming a rogue and a failed state with two emerging powers, how is taking Omani route on the Hormuz your business? Most ships avoid Iranian water space in the Hormuz because of their problems but still yet some rogue psychopaths are hell bent in burning and causing eclipse to the economy activities of the world. We are watching... him who prays for rain without an an umbrella should not blame it when it beats him.
PoliticsRe: Direct Insult To Christians -Vatsa Knocks Tinubu’s Muslim-Muslim Ticket For 2027 by runningriot: 9:02pm On Jul 11
While the best way to combat injustice and crime is inclusiveness and equality. However, I am of the opinion that the most perceive position is that of a deputy or vice... That seat is as cold as ice block and if you say no use late President Buhari as a case study! Despite having Osinbanjo a Christian as the vice president what else has the Christians benefited rather than marginalize and prejudice government? But President Tinubu changed the calcus, he changed the narrative by giving multiple Christians key positions despite the so called amplified marginalized Muslim-Muslim ticket. Perhaps for me, let the Muslim-Muslim ticket continue while key appointment is given to Christians or shared equitable well.
PoliticsRe: Oyo School Abduction Came Hours After My 2027 Presidential Declaration — Makinde by runningriot:
This is an insensitive and inordinate political motivated rhetoric aimed at creating more friction in our political landscape. We must not circumvent the truth or be political correct at all time to please our emotions or gullible followers... The truth is that insecurity only thrive well where there is falsehoods, misinformation and conspiracy theories... If what the governor is saying is correct what will we say about the previous abduction of same students multiple times in North West and some parts of the country.

We must not give ears to some thrash because they are in the limelight! rather we should constructively speak and criticize the fact that the government are not doing enough to fight insecurity in the country due to their poor policies and funding!

The propaganda around it is pathetic.

Admitting ransom was paid is NOT BAD...but claiming to have killed 8 and arrested others during the "so called rescue" is shamelessly pathetic
.
Nobody is saying negotiation or rescued operation is bad even me I want to see the evidence of the rescued operation but owing to the afformentioned commenter egregious comment on this issue by saying it is political scripted is what makes me feel he is a sadist or a bitter person that allowed political sentiments to turn his soul into heart of darkness!

Let us assume money was paid, I thought you would be happy the children came back home the way your likes have been crying all over threads that children are in captivity as if you love them more than their family.
Now they have been rescued, express that happiness don't cry whether money was paid or not. Or you prefer they get beheaded like their teacher so you and your principal can have more bad news about Nigeria to rejoice about?



Thank you for your attention to this matter
Oga abi you no dey read to understand and comprehend. Informatively, the opening sentence of my comment was all about expression of plausible joy for the safe return of the children. Apparently, I can't be a bitter and a sadist to the extent of being pained that kidnapped children or individuals should not be rescued by any means whether through rescue operation or negotiation. My political alignment has not reached that stage of seeing people's lives being played like a scrabble or chess and I will sleep with my two eyes closed. However, I can't be intimidated not to ask rational and logical questions when the need arises if you said they are rescued by the security agencies show us proof so as we can believe more and applaud them of their doggedness and bravery. That is my stake!

Mr man Prelude to my comment I express joy and happiness over the safe return of the children and teachers. However, they only thing I demanded was nothing but evidence to corroborate the fact that it was a rescue operation... For me whether it is rescued operation or negotiation that brought back the abductees is a welcome idea provided they are back to their family safe and sound but where it states that it is a rescue operation we will like to see evidence to appreciate the security and the government more...

PoliticsRe: Tinubu Expresses Joy Over The Rescue Of Oriire Kidnapped Children & Teachers by runningriot:
While I express utmost joy for the safe return of the students and their teachers. However, there are questions that need to be answered, were they truly rescued or as usual bargain and negotiation was what transpired the release of the abductees? Because no single evidence to show that it was a rescue operation that led to the recovery of these children and their teachers. I mean, real and substantial evidence will provoke more public confidence and trust in the government and security agencies.
