What is your ancestry? Break it down for us . And also we need the ancestry of this other crazy SOB by the name mtisthequbit because hes such a mixed up mishmash mess
Has the ARA or any proforce vehicle for that matter been exported to Southern Africa as you claimed:
It's a simple yes/no question
Let's stay on your major focus, I dont want you changing every now and then...we were talking about it been exported to UN which has always been your major focus, let's sort that out first before stepping on another.. . Sammyyyyyyyy
TayserMahri: 1):He did. He said "If I was in Lagos I would prolly find it hard to walk because people will want to grab my stick" Not sure which stick, but we go with the selfie stick.
2):He was obviously juxtaposing walking in the business district of Nairobi vs Lagos. I know your ego cant allow you to accept even the most obvious facts.
3):We will. Meanwhile, fix your pitch black polluted water in Lagos so that we wont have Nigerians coming to Kenya to marvel over crystal clear ocean water.
4):It takes about 4.5 hrs by train and about 8 hrs by road (thats half the time). So the rail is def faster. Show me a faster train ride in the entire Federal Republic.
I don't know how to answer in bits like you did, that's why I am numbering it..so let's dig in
1): he did used the word Lagos ,and for the stick we can't be so sure. Who knows it might be his P*Nis or he might have possessed an actually stick with him.....We both are completely clueless to what he meant as he should have been more specific for better understanding
2): look this is not about ego but fact, he never mentioned business district. Stop trying to alter his utterance, let's just stick to what he actually said.
3): He was simply admiring the one good thing mother nature never took or tampered with which is your lake.He wasn't focus on its cleanliness but its beauty. We have better world class, more beautifully advanced lake here u. Nigerian. The dude as even dine videos in one of Lagos lakes which has been posted here before. Here you can watch it if you haven't
4): While on YouTube I happen to stumble upon this troubling but yet enticing YouTube video title..I just thought I should share it with you as pertaining to your 4th question
FOR THE RECORDS THIS IS NOT CHINESE LOAN FUNDED PROJECT THAT EVENTUALLY LEADS TO NEOCOLONIALISM

September 12, 2019 Okechukwu Nnodim, Abuja
The Federal Government has given approval for the construction of the $5.3bn Ibadan to Kano standard gauge rail line project.
Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, disclosed this on Thursday at the third Maritime Stakeholders Interactive Forum.
“Just yesterday, we got approval to complete the $5.3bn Ibadan to Kano rail project. We have also applied for funding to commence coastal rail for the Port Harcourt to Warri segment,” Amaechi said.
According to a statement issued by the Federal Ministry of Transportation in Abuja, the minister also revealed that the Minister of State for Transportation, Gbemisola Saraki, would be in charge of all maritime agencies, while he (Amaechi) would focus on the railway sector.

He said, “In my first term as minister, I completely abandoned the maritime sector to the heads of agencies. This time, that won’t be happening again.
“I have instructed that the Minister of State for Transportation should personally supervise the maritime agencies, while I just oversee what is happening.”
Amaechi said he had discussed issues on maritime safety with President Muhammadu Buhari and assured his listeners that by next year, the country will have a single window in the maritime sector.
He said, “There are two things I discussed with Mr. President that I will be focusing on in this second term as minister, and they are maritime security and the single window project.
“I have assured the government that by the end of 2020, we should have the single window at our maritime sector.
“On maritime security, I have told the Israeli firm HSLI that they are too slow. By now, they should have launched. I want to know the situation of things with the aspect of security on our maritime space.”
Sad part is I actually like the ARA 2 and i have praised the remarkable progress Proforce and the whole Nigerian defence industry has made in only a few years.
I did not come here to bash Nigeria.... in fact I've probably had more debates with the Kenyans on this thread than the Nigerians.
And the fact that I'm picking on you is because you firstly called me a lair a couple of months back, and secondly pedalled false information regarding the ARA/Proforce.
But since you won't believe me maybe you could ask @AskiaHarem he's frequented the military threads a couple of times and has reasonable knowledge on the subject, if you ask him he will probably confirm that the UN has never bought any Proforce vehicles just like it hasn't bought any South African or Kenyan vehicles.
Leave askiaharam out of this,it is you I know....is this to say you will no longer perturb me with your quotes
vaxx1: is that a defence. well, that doesn't sound defensive enough. competion is healthy for the Goverment. Harvard is a private uni and and she has constantly been ranked above many major American unis. I accept report from reputable Nigeria institution.
So this one is reputable.. give me reason why you have finally seen a Nigeria body that is reputable just because you want to argue what the whole world knows
vaxx1: there are changes in methodology . have you read what is the metholoddgy in such ranking? the question you should be asking yourself is the national ranking ( nuc) had never for once rated covenant uni as the best uni in nigeria . why international organization? is there misinformation here.
Because federal govt will never agree that a private unis is better than any public uni...by the way since when did you start accepting reports,. Stats from Nigerian bodies
theenchanter: o boy... so, why was covenant that was founded in 2002 ranked above university of ibadan (founded in 1948), university of ghana (founded in 1948) and university of nairobi (founded in 1956) and grandpa fourah bay (1827)?
Covenant ranked at 400+ Univeristy of ibadan at 500+ University of ghana at 800+ University of nairobi at 800+
Why?
Hahaha. It's about quality. Another question should be why was Harvard ranked higher than ancient ovxford few years ago, OR why is Harvard ranked lesser some American unis this year
vaxx1: You do need it better than me. anyway. what that screenshot is suggest simply a summary understanding of unis in africa ( most especially sub Saharan africa) it wasn't about the oldest only. the and in that sentence is a continuation.
The full stop just shows a further elaboration of contiounious ranking which are subjected to continual changes as the uni make progress or flawed in their category. hope this help.
You can argue ..I am surprised you are arguing about this when you can clearly see the full stop that indicates the sentence has ended..even a market woman without any degree knows this
vaxx1: it has many things to do.......your historical reputation can influence the system. the much longer the institution exist . the chances of having a higher cited research paper. it isn't the only factor but it is contributing factor.
It does not and I will be citing some examples
Havard is the oldest University in the world but it was ranked 7th this year and was surpassed by about three younger universities in the states..
Old universities like UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE finds its hard to always make it among too ten globally (I doubt if it has ever made it to top 20)
University of Lagos was ranked higher than University of Nigeria but university of Nigeria is the se cond oldest here..
This is to make you understand that date of establishment does no influence anything, it's the quality of education you deliver that matters
vaxx1: Yet the ranking body acknowledge historical and age long history. from the very recent ranking. it sighted fourah bay colledge in saro as the best university in sub Saharan African aside south Africa yet it is not mentioned on the table.
if Ui can't compare to legon, covenant will not meet up.
We are not interested in the age of a university, we are more concerned with the ranking
theenchanter: i didnt compare legon with covenant, legon deserve it's respect. Though covenant is now rated above both university of ghana and university of ibadan in world ranking despite being just 17years old.
University of ghana is at an abysmally low 800+ in THE uni rankings, same with university of nairobi at 800+ . ibadan is at 500+ while covenant is 400+
Thats d diff.
The gap is wide..infact there is no need for comparism
theenchanter: i didnt compare legon with covenant, legon deserve it's respect. Though covenant is now rated above both university of ghana and university of ibadan in world ranking despite being just 17years old.
University of ghana is at an abysmally low 800+ in THE uni rankings, same with university of nairobi at 800+ . ibadan is at 500+ while covenant is 400+
Thats d diff.
Convenant being 17 years does not mean it's should be shifted aside, it's ranked well cos it's doing better than any west African uni
vaxx1: obviously. it is stupid comparing covenant with legon . anybody with his headup will not try it. just as it is stupid to compare Ui with covenant. even in the ranking , the institution acknowledge fouray bay college as the best uni in Africa outside south Africa yet it is not mentioned in the table.
The date a university is established has nothing to do with its quality..if covenant has surpassed UI then it's is because UI has dropped .same can be said for legon
jln115: 1.You said the UN bought the ARA I just clarified that it hadn't.
2. So has proforce exported any vehicles to Southern Africa..... Yes or No?
I guess I have to do this again
Proforce has achieved exports of its APCs to Rwanda, the Central African Republic and South Sudan. These vehicles have been deployed with United Nations’missions.
vaxx: You should have Google the word and cross check if it exist in nigeria. and beside have you checked young university ranking by the same organization?
Yes I didn't bother checking because I don't see the point doing that. You are saying we started ranking well in 2017, I THOUGHT THERE IS FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING, yours that has been ranked well what stopped it from loosing it position? Why is it not also ranked? Was it also influenced to be ranked lowly?...let's just say Yours is better, it should be competing with ours on that ranking but clearly that's not the case.. Time HIGHER EDUCATION (THE) are not the first to rank us well other rankings have done that as well, they can't all be wrong...just wait 2021 and you would see more Nigerian unis rank higher
