Leadership! Leadership!! Leadership!!!

We are currently in a situation where the worst of us are leading the rest of us.

This needs to be reversed. The best of us need to lead the rest of us.

I think Zimbabwe's inflation was worse, some quadrillion or gazillion % inflation rate.

Interesting indeed.

BruncleZuma:
It's progressing and that's not a good indication for us here in Nigeria. Huge oil reserves and irresponsible governing are a dangerous mix for any economy and South Africa is about to join the fray.

South Africa? huh

(The only thing that comes to mind is the land reform.)

Keep clear of anti spam bot.

Upload pics after down loading them.

Don't cop paste text , better write it itself, u can copy paste but then u will have to risk the bot getting triggered.

Open another account , go to naira land home page at the bottom use the contact moderator option , tag mydn44 and give the username and thread where it got blocked .

How did SAA down the F16? was it with a SAM or AAA?

According to the Israeli army the F-16 was hit and went down after coming under "massive anti-aircraft fire".

Reuters claimed it was downed by a Syrian anti-aircraft missile.
