Since the world war two America has only invaded third world countries Iraq,Afghanistan,Libya,Syria etc and was lastly disgraced out of Afghanistan,the countries America invaded did not use state of the art weapons like long range missiles,they did not use advanced tanks,stingers rockets ,they did not use Himars, these countries America invaded were just using Ak47 and rocket launchers and were reduced to guerrilla fighters,and worst of it America fought all her wars with her western allies,she has never fought alone.

Russia singlehanded invade Ukraine alone without allies,despite heavy western support Ukraine enjoyed they were still able to sieze 30% of Ukrainian land. give it to Russia the great bear they are masters if warfare.

I'm impressed by this man, he will make a fine leader.

1. If Atiku pulls off galvanizing the northern votes (NE/NW) in his favour then he stands the best chance.
Odds will be against Tinubu then Obi will have very limited option (that's if Obi secured SE/SS votes).
2. If Atiku has a highly contested NE/NW then all bets are off his hands then he will rely on dumb luck.
I) Should Kwankwaso lead the NW and Obi secures SS/SE then bets will be heavily against Tinubu and in most ways against him...
Ii) Should he lose both NE/NW then it comes down to who ever leads by significant margin in the region except for Kwankwaso becomes the president. (i.e if Tinubu secures SW and Obi SE/SS)
My point is no one should assume victory yet as it's still too early and will be a very fluid election
LP should always look at worst case scenario while maintaining their push both online and offline.
PDP should strive to secure NE/NW to stand a better chance
APC should work more on their strategy else they will be worst off.

Yes it will. I believe with a massive turn out

I'm not trying to justify or support otherwise, but putting things in perspective with respect to time, one can make more logical sense out of the whole disaster.
At the time, the cost of invasion of Japan would have been very costly, for military (both Japan and the allied), civilian and materials alike.

SmartPolician:
In my opinion, that section of the Nigerian law is not realistic. Therefore, it should be amended or expunged.

With the cost of living getting worse, nobody can conveniently survive on just one government job. Everyone deserves a second stream of income, as far as the government job is not negatively affected.

I totally support you on this. Government pay is as good as "go kill yourself"

KingofAnambra:
I will tell you if you can just mention 1 since 1999 democracy, just one local government chairman in any of the entire 5 Eastern states that is an Igbo Muslim

kettle calling pot black. There's is no point in what you are saying.

KingofAnambra:
Since 1999 till today, there has never been an Igbo Muslim senator or Igbo Muslim house of Reps member in any of the 5 Southeast States.

Let that sink in! And my people are the ones telling you not to vote for Muslim/Muslim ticket. They call you headslammers. It's time for Nigerian Muslims to show your haters that you are not fools. Vote for Tinubu /Shettima 2023. Being a Muslim is not a crime! Defend your religion.

You speak non sense. Like someone asked you earlier, how many Christians have been voted in zamfara, Kano, kastina, sokoto, kebbi

superlanny:
There is something really wrong somewhere that my people from the SouthEast are not willing to address or accept. Rather than get agitated and offended by what clearly is a monopoly of prolific drug trafficking, my people must start to look themselves in the mirror and stop giving the country a bad image outside.

Sometimes I really don't blame them, our leader are the epitome of shamelessness and failure, in as much, we as a people must desist from all sorts of bad acts that brings a bad reputation to the good people of Nigeria.

Southeast and it's people must address this problem before many of it's youths are jailed languishing in prisons all across Asia and the rest of the world.

How do you know he is from SE??

Senseless post. Is Tinubu a Yoruba candidate?? Is Atiku an hausa/Fulani candidate??...
Nonsense talk my friend: It is clear you can't see beyond your nose

shogsman:
.we don't believe Africans are stupid,we believe there are naturally unintelligent people like yourself who was brought up with zero dignity or self worth and too blind to shed your slavery.
Someone like you would kiss the feet of a white man that slaps your mother

Obviously your believes shows your content. You clearly lack what it takes to get an audience. But the truth remains you are filled with half baked propaganda, pls do better next time. We Africans don't buy into stupid.

Some of you think Africans are stupid, that's why u bring up false claims and expect your presumed "Primitive and uninformed Blackman to swallow it without questions"
Trust me, with this kind of stuff there will be no front page for you.

Discombulator:
Of course there is always one of you sheeps too stupid for the obvious, you're seeing things with your own eyes and you still foolishly call it propaganda, it's like your brains only work an hour in a day

U don't have anything to say other than insults.
1. What were the war casualty figures in donbass bw 2014 and 2021
2. What were the casualty figure of the civilian in the region
Answer these then we can talk. Otherwise keep your propaganda

Propaganda:
Pls always set records straight. There is no reason making such false and unnecessary claims.

IbileIfe:
Everyone with about US$5million in the bank is a Billionaire in Nigeria.

I don't think you have that much, do you??

ken6488:
That's a lie,

Until USA does it

USA has literally lost all her wars since ww2

Vietnam and Afghan was a huge disgrace

That's not true. Because I don't get what u meant by failure

Hanibbal:
Lies...Go and read about the Korean war. The Chinese numbers were to their advantage both sides suffer heavy casualty but the Chinese were just swooping on U.S troops. A U.S war veteran in a documentary I watched said he had never seen anything like that in his life. They almost drove U.S troops into the Yalu river

Every account I read and watched noted there were heavy casualty on both sides especially because of the extreme weather and the sudden and surprised attack by the Chinese and the north Korean. But the constant factors are
*The allied forces were outnumbered
*The Chinese and Korean forces continued to attack despite their unimaginable casualties. (Most allied members will compare the attacks to cannon folders.)
* The allied forces retreat and counter attacked after reenforcement. (Inflicting more casualty on the Chinese.)
* The allied forces achieve recovery of the all south Korean territories
* Because there is no logical reason to continue the war (on the allied side), a compromise was reached.
* This was the creation of the DMZ
*The US and allies successfully achieved making north Korean a pariah state.
My friend modern wars are not black and white. It is strategy and logic. Korean war was technical success for US and it's democracy.

Hanibbal:
In your dreams. A super power that North Korea gave headaches during the korean war. When the Chinese now entered the war to back the Korean side it was as if U.S troops were being slaughtered like chickens the chinese with their sheer numbers were just swooping on U.S troops. A super power that fled and could not defeat rag tagged and ill equipped communist militias in Vietnam.

A super power that spent billions in Afghanistan, wasted american lives there and ran away in the middle of the night without informing Afghan military that they were training. Go and sleep bro.

I don't know where you got your history book from but actually it was the Chinese that was slaughtered. There number advantage was evident on the Chinese side but the casualty figure was not sustainable for any nation except communist nation.

Appleyard:
The Russian artillery firepower is a nightmare to any fighting force on the planet. Even one retired US captain couldn't help but confessed the fearsomeness of the Russian Arty units which he described as a "rain of steel".

It's only ediots on sentimental drug pills that envisaged a Ukrainian field victory over a firepower house like Russia.

Noise...

Russian fans talk too much. It's unfortunate they know soo little about space talk more of ISS

I support competence totally. But 2015 remains the epitome of how low Nigerian can go when it comes to stupidity and blindness.

MadamExcellency:
He is talking about the sum of the percentage of the population of both countries.

For clarity's sake. If India has 25% and China got 20%, the sum is 45% while Nigeria has 48%.

I don't think he will understand. Don't waste your time

Assetinvestor:
The most tribalistic people in Nigeria are yorubas yet they would deny it openly. From their pastors to traditional rulers, agberos to politicians, and even the educated ones, it's still the same thing!

They claim to be educated and sophisticated yet are campaigning and hoping that a criminal and desperate old man like tinubu would rule Nigeria even when far better candidates like Peter Obi is there. They even decide to fight Obi and preach hate against Igbos.

Well, it is left for all Nigerians to decide their fate, vote for tinubu and suffer the consequences or vote Obi and experience a turn around.

unfortunately there nothing to see in Nigerian politics.

olugabbie:
Of course they are. The US sanctioned some German and Russian companies working on the Nord Stream II under Trump. They wanted to kill the project. This happened when there was no war.

The US has being pressuring the West to abandon Russian oil & gas ⛽ for years.

Marine Le Pen is a nationalist. She believes France is a super power on it's own. She is one of the people that are wary of the dependent of the EU/NATO on the US. She also believe that there can be no peace in Europe without winning Russia over to the Western side. She thinks China os a major threat to the West and to counter China. The West needs Russia and India.

She said she will pull France out of NATO & urge other Western countries to develop strong ties with Russia for peace to reign in Europe.

You can read up on her manifesto.

US and other NATO members' concern on Nord Stream II Project especially with respect to the security and economic garantee of the west was in jeopardy. I understand some of these nationalist has some myopic view on issues like these. Le pen like Trump has short term view on important security issues. How will u invite a nation that clearly perceive you as hegemonic and has tailored it's philosophy toward undermining ur effort into ur security structure.
NATO has continued joint effort with Russia in position of strength and mutual respect,which has been the main reason for the existing peace in Europe. There is no logical reason undermining such structure because of individual interest.

I don't think US is pressuring anyone. Le pen should focus on her election.

dettolgel:
When is Africa going to be held accountable for what they did to themselves? Rwanda genocide, starving of SE children, the Fulani marauders across Nigerian, the ongoing BH onslaught on people of the North, the millions that was sold into slavery by their kinsmen and the many more than are still being matched into sex slavery across Europe by Africans or the many that have been sold by Libyans.

Truth be told if the west should leave us to our vices Africa will destroy itself. Imagine if not that the west steps in every now and then to stop our leaders from themselves by now our leader would have sold Nigeria and flee to somewhere else. That is how destructive we are to ourselves.

So please leave the west and focus inward.

We have election next year and all the idiots that has hand in the situation we are in have started crawling out from their caves to come and steal from the public and there are ordinary people who saw nothing wrong with that. And you are here pointing fingers at the west.

1million likes for you.

gambojimeta:
Well it was meant to be a 2 day war at best, now it's almost two months , 7 weeks already.

Russian intelligence told Putin that many Ukrainians would welcome Russian troops.

From house arrest in March to notorious Jail in April. Putin is not happy.

That's the result of the invasion lingering on. Of course Putin will purge more of his own.

.

All predictions keep unfolding. Consequence of international blonder. It would have made the best sense if Putin had only threatened Ukraine and not invade or at worse made a quick but tangible defeat against Ukraine. Now the more the so called special military operation lingers, the more the west will make most of it.
In the coming year or so, Russia will be relegated to a semi pariah state or at best a nuclear regional power. She will have a very little to no influence in Europe.
The bitter truth is, Russia just strengthened The west (US) hegemony. Indirectly, aided Indo-Pacific strategy.
TIP Watch the politics of Pacific region closely.

Betscoreodds:
People think USA is invisible they are not.

China can handle USA.

lol. Nobody(country) is invisible. As for China, it will be in their best interest to continue on their path at least for next 2 decades.

Betscoreodds:
New world order is breaking apart so let watch and see if she will run away.

Fingers crossed.

If true, pelosi will not visit if it only for solidarity. Should she visit though, it is a clear sign the west wants to address the issue of being at the helm of the so called new world order.
