Foreign AffairsRe: China Tightens Internet Controls With New Centralized Form Of Virtual ID by Salowise: 6:10pm On Jun 21, 2025
LeopardX:
The CCP is very insecure, and I don't blame them.
So many of their unemployed and underemployed citizens can easily be hijacked by a mischievous foreign adversary to cause unrest and wreck havoc.
Don't ask me who that foreign adversary is tongue
They can use vpn to bypass it, what if their enemy hack and get data of all internet users in China
SportsRe: I Worked For Pastor Chris — Osimhen Narrates When He Left Football To Make Money by Salowise: 5:14pm On Jun 21, 2025
danietohbadt:
Thank you for the observation.
2015 till now is 10 years.

He played at the under 17 WC in 2015, meaning he was 16 years at the time (he's currently 26)

He didn't play football for 2 years after secondary school, meaning he finished secondary school at 14 years.

Now, it's the observer's choice to believe or not believe that
Thought i was the only one doing the math, kudos to him he has done well for himself but for the age grin. At 2015 he was 16yrs old, he resume playing football 2014 at 15, he didn't play for 2yrs at 13. Which means he finished high school between 12 and 13yrs. Sometimes e good say make people stop talking about their past and focus in the present.

Close to the hotel is the recently commissioned international conference center, he's bring economic activities to that very location, create employment as well. One feature I'll like it to have is a conference hall, where they can host show like they do in eko hotel.
TravelRe: Calabar And Akwa Ibom Section Of The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road (Pictures) by Salowise: 8:20am On Jun 01, 2025
kettykin:
Surprisingly the Environmental impact assessment criers of yesteryear are suddenly mute.

My suggestion is that the Calabar route should extend to cross river north city of Ogudu then to Ebonyi, the get into Benue state where it can join the highway leading to Abuja . So that the Agricultural potentials in cross river, ebony, Benue and nassarawa can keep the route busy all year long
Ebonyi and Benue are not coastal states, but you made a salient point.

CoronaVirusPro:
The dumbest president in the world!

One thing I am just loving about it all is that, prior to elections, some people thought they will be excluded from the wrath of Trump, but now, EVERYONE is getting impacted 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

FEMA now useless! Hurricane ravaged areas are helpless

Mass layoffs irrespective of your political beliefs

Big cut to Medicaid, Medicare and Snap benefit in new big bill 🤣🤣🤣

Ministry of education stabbed and handed off to the state, who will now deliver education to the private sector.

Consumer protection gutted! Financial institutions having their best years.

Everyone one in America should get his/her own plate, Y’all be served your own share of the menace.
So they should allow people that hate the United States and Israel into US so that they'll destroy the nation from within. Trump's policy aren't friendly for foreigners, but it's the best for his country.

Don't pray for world war. The world is already going through a lot economically for another world war to happen. Only president Zeleskey can stop this war but he's too arrogant to accept Putin's demands.
I'm not praying for war, I'm only responding to the person that feels that Russia can defeat NATO

You are definitely not following the war up. You have certainly not read about what the Islander M - ballistic missiles is doing in Ukraine. No NATO made air defence system can take it down. The

overload during manoeuvring considerably exceeds the overload that most NATO-made anti-aircraft missiles can endure. Therefore, the Ukrainian army has no capabilities to shoot down Iskanders.

The adversary can only observe the flight of these missiles and realise the inevitable destruction of its sites," the firm stated.

You don't know Russia, they are destroying all NATO made anti aircraft defense system in Ukraine on daily basis. NATO really want test Russia's might through Ukraine and Russia is ready to show them what it has got.
Russia is not the only country with ballistic missile, what happened to the air defense system Russia provided to Iran, as powerful as Russia claim they are can't even protect Syria from Turkey militia. Aside nuke, Russia lack intels, last terrorist attack on Russia, the US warned Russia to be alert but the terrorist still strike. If the US decide under Trump decide to support Ukraine against Russia, trust me Russia will fold.

First saw the video on X he was saying he couldn't work in a hotel but was using Igbo, someone translated it (Akpi said he can't work in a hotel, someone can have sex with a girl of 15yrs and she's a virgin, after doing everything they then give the hotel cleaner 2k to tidy up the bedspread because of blood stain that he cannot do such work).

WritterNg:
He's right.

Russia is the largest country on earth. No army on earth can cover an area that size. Not even 80 million troops. The US can barely mobilize 2 million troops.

Russia has the largest mineral reserves on earth. Rare earth metals and others in abundance.

Russia has the largest missile arsenal on earth. And the largest and most diverse nuclear arsenal.

Russia is backed by China & India and the rest of Asia (4 billion people). All nuclear armed btw.

So how on earth do you expect the US to win against Russia? Even with the help of NATO.
Who goes are invading bushes, attack cities with drones and missiles, giving Ukraine advance weapons to strike into Russia will cause Russia lots of damage, imagine Finland, Sweden and Poland Russia's neigbbor joining the fight will be very brutal. If you add some NATO countries like France, Germany and Turkey, it's a done deal. While the US provide them with intels, Russia won't survive 2 weeks of massive bombardment.

From what i read, if the company makes 1b, fg take 520m while the company keeps 480m. If this is true then it's very high, the fg can reduce it and slash the price of cement for Nigerians.

This clearly shows that PDP is a dieing party or a toothless party that cannot discipline it members.
This isn't about party, this is about Northern and Southern presidency, don't be surprised if Obi and Tinubu might be working together secretly. The may likely be a power shift from the North, because of the usual born to run mentality and always claiming to bring in any leader they choose

English is not that difficult mate. China is saying that after they heeded to the appeals after considering their interest. This means they were not the one that sought out the negotiation as you claimed.
Mr sabi English pass every person on nairaland, you're wrong sure you still don't know the negotiation favoured the United States more.

Did you read the tweet very well, US asked for it and
China agreed. Do you know how long Trump waited for China to agree? Trump is a clown .
US asked for it you say, USA is China's biggest market and you think China is the only country producing what the United States need. There are countries in Asia that can replace China like India, Bangladesh, Thailand, Singapore, South Korea, Japan etc. Now tell me which country can replace the purchasing power of USA? Please don't call Africa, because California GDP alone is bigger than the combined four largest economies of Africa. From Trump's tariff, the US has gotten investment worth over $1trillion from companies like Nvidia, Johnson and Johnson, Apple, IBM, Hyundai, etc. Now check how much China tariff products from US before the tariff against 10% today, you'll know USA actually won.

We have reached an agreement on a 90-day pause and substantially move down the tariff levels," Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said at a Monday press conference in Geneva. "Both sides, on the reciprocal tariffs, will move their tariffs down 115%,"


grin grin grin grin grin grin grin
Donald Trump is dull grin grin grin grin grin
US actually won, before now goods from US were tariff at over 60% which made USA goods expensive in China, goods imported from China to USA was tariff at 0% which made Chinese products cheap in USA. By going 10% on both sides, USA now have access to Chinese market. So it's a win for USA

Watcharena:
Who called for negotiation was it china or US

China had already moved on making deals with many countries to replace US why can't US just moved on the way china has moved on.

Trump only ended up in disgracing US, possibly he thought china will not respond like other countries
China called for negotiation, US can always get cheap things from India, South Korea, Bangladesh, Japan even Thailand.

You're just a Trump hater, China did call for the negotiation that was even before US had talks with the UK.

EducationRe: Peter Obi Calls Out JAMB Over 6:30am Exams; JAMB Replies by Salowise: 12:23pm On Apr 28, 2025
papyjaypaul:
JAMB should have just kept quiet, it's not everything you respond to. You'll only draw more attention to yourself. I 2025, examinations should not be this difficult. These kids can see how their mates abroad take exams. It's not a do or die affair. In the first place, we don't need JAMB.

Have you ever thought about how it's easier to gain admission from a school abroad than a school in Nigeria? Why do you need JAMB after WAEC? Why is the JAMB of Ghana or USA not telling you to travel to their country to write exams first? Aren't we thinking? If you are interested in a school, you don't need JAMB as a feeder to pass you to the schools you're interested in. The universities knew the fraud JAMB is, that's why they started post-UTME. Stop giving these kids too many exams.

Let JAMB join WAEC or find something to give them. Nigeria is losing its youth by bringing JAMB into the university admission process. See the way kids get admission into 5-6 schools in US? There is a system that those universities trust to help them and they give you admission letter. Let's strengthen the process from the foundation and admit that JAMB is unnecessary. The countries around us, Benin, Ghana and all of them have seen market in Nigeria's misrery which we have invited upon ourselves.
You're very correct, many universities in the US, you don't need IELT, SAT or GMAT and you'll get admission with just WAEC and even scholarship. We can do better
