Under Goodluck Jonathan's administration, Nigeria famously rebased its gross domestic product in 2014, making it the largest economy in Africa at the time. • At its peak (2014): Nigeria's nominal GDP hit an all-time historical high of $568.5 billion. • When he left office (2015): Due to the onset of the global oil crash in late 2014, the nominal GDP slid to roughly $481 billion to $493 billion by the end of 2015.
After 11 years we are still battling under $377 billion. |

victoryenergy: Then migrate to Russia, if you have the opportunity to chose between Russia and the US which those two countries will you migrate to, we know you will be heading to US, but I like Putin, because Islamist are very afraid of him, they can't try their madness with Russia, Putin will send them to where they belong. That why many blacks support USA not because they love the evil they are doing. No doubt they are the best but for you to be the best you have to do all kind of evil to poor nations. Imagine killing millions of innocent people in the name of they have WMD and at the end there was no WMD and they never apologized . All that lies just to steal their resources . With this pattern of controlling their resources and sending them money like beggars how can a country develop?

CaseSensitive: Same thing in Germany. There's a high-level political efforts surrounding a potential ban of the AfD populist party that won three regions in Germany.
It's a free and fair election when their preferred candidate or party wins It's a sham election or "far right" party when it doesn't go their way. You're a "dictator" or "terrorist" if they can't manipulate and dominate you
These are the same people that sold "democracy" to Africa.
They are the same people who label Putin, Xi Jin Ping and Kim Jong Un a dictator and labelled Iran a "terrorist" state. The problem with Africans they don’t know who are theirs enemies, worse of all they think the west will help them that why we are were we are today dinning with the enemies. Nobody is coming to help Africa if we don’t help ourselves .

Willie2015: Putin has dominated Russian national politics since 1999, He has been the central figure in the Kremlin for roughly 27 years. He is now the longest-serving Russian/Soviet leader since Stalin. Political competition has been severely restricted. Opposition candidates had been jailed, exiled, or prevented from registering. There is documented evidence of electoral irregularities and manipulation. Law changes in 2008 and 2020 extended presidential terms and reset his term limits. He can legally stay in power until 2036. These are hard facts... Vladimir Putin is simply an authoritarian ruler...
Just imagine Tinubu jailed or exile or prevent Atiku and Obi from registration  There’s nothing like election in Middle East especially all USA allies but the USA keep teaching the rest of the world about democracy. |

Foreign Affairs › Re: US Hits SA With Visa Restrictions, Promises More Sanctions Over Policies by Smartguyboy(m): 9:23pm On Sep 16 |
RandDigital: The United States’ ambassador to South Africa, Brent Bozell, says his country is planning further action against South Africa, following the announcement of a new visa restriction policy.
On Wednesday, 16 September, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced visa restrictions on South Africans.
These specifically target individuals “who are responsible for, or complicit in, the enactment or implementation” of policies the US deems “egregious”.
Bozell followed up the announcement, saying that the visa restrictions are only the first part of the United States’ measures against South Africa.
He said the United States is moving on from endless discourse and is now taking action.
“This visa restriction policy is only the first step in a series of escalatory measures that will show America’s firm resolve in this matter,” he said.
Bozell said the measures were being taken as the US was not satisfied with the outcomes of previous discussions between the two countries.
“The time for endless ‘dialogue’ has run its course. No more. America has just so much patience. We want strong, and lasting relations with the South African government. It needs to show it wants the same. So far, it has shown it cares for neither. As a result, the consequences, as I’ve attempted time and again to express, are necessarily going to be severe.”
Bozell did not elaborate on what further actions or consequences may be.
SA POLICIES IN THE CROSSHAIRS
The visa restrictions imposed on South Africa stem from policies such as Black Economic Empowerment and land expropriation without compensation.
In his statement, Rubio highlighted both Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) and land expropriation laws and said that South Africa had not done enough to adequately address the US’s concerns regarding them.
In March 2026, Bozell outlined five “asks” directed to the South African government regarding these policies.
These aligned with similar demands relayed to local delegations to the United States in June 2025.
They include:
1. Protecting rural communities from violence, referring to the globally publicised farm attacks. In 2025, the US wanted this to become a priority crime focus.
2. Condemning rhetoric that incites hatred and glorifies violence, referring to the infamous “kill the boer” chant. The US wants the government to publicly condemn this.
3. Ensuring appropriation policies include fair and clear compensation standards, referring to the government’s move to normalise “nil” compensation in new expropriation laws.
4. Ending mandatory surrender of ownership or control of corporate decision-making as a cost of one’s own business, referring to South Africa’s strict BEE policies.
5. Ending its association with Iran and enemies of the United States and becoming a non-aligned state as it purports to be.
At the time, Bozell said that addressing these issues was “achievable, practical and beneficial to both Americans and South Africans”.
However, he also noted that Pretoria had left Washington hanging on the matter for over a year, and warned that patience was running thin.
“We believe that it becomes a statement by the South African government when it doesn’t want to respond to simple questions that we have,” he said.
The office of the presidency confirmed only last week (11 September) that it was still drafting a response to the questions.
Rubio and Bozell have now made it clear that time is up.
“The United States remains gravely concerned about racially motivated crime and government-sponsored discrimination occurring against the Afrikaners and other minority populations in South Africa,” Rubio said.
“We once again strongly urge the South African government to quickly address these egregious actions.”
South Africa has previously dismissed claims from the US that its laws are discriminatory against Afrikaners.
It has also characterised farm murders as a symptom of South Africa’s wider issues with violent crime, pointed to court rulings defending the protected speech of “kill the boer”, and defended its non-aligned status.
The government has also insisted that its expropriation laws are similar to those codified in other countries —although the “nil compensation” aspect of the laws is currently being challenged in court. What they know how to do best .

The pact only exist if they are being invaded ( if at all you know the meaning of invade) not fighting proxy war. Saudi have a puppet government in Yemen to protect they border so whenever the govt need they help they respond and they have been the one funding the government too . The Houthis are having serious funding now . Iran have people they fund in Yemen likewise Saudi Arabia too . It’s not a war Turkey and co can get involved ✌️

Botragelad: Do you see how almost all these Arab countries run to the US and Israel for help when things get bad/serious? Without Israel in that region, Islamic terrorists would have had a much easier time running wild. It’s about competence.
Then these same countries turn around and scream “Free Palestine” while quietly begging Israel for intelligence, security help, and technology.
That’s why Israel will keep prospering. Do the work, build the strength, and let the noise makers cry.
