Good question. Ceasefire with Iran is the only ceasefire Israel respects. Why so?

Mtscheew!

They'll churn out plenty semantics about reforms then subsequently pick a pot-bellied politician to head a football body.

And the end result? Same corruption and mediocrity on repeat😤.

this is money they would have preferred to spend on other states
not texas that should be reliably republican

-Lord
True that.

It's so bad that Democrats are now fancying their chances, effectively making Texas into a swing-state. And now they have to burn millions in ads on a campaign trail that party members are not even enthusiastic about.

LordAdam16, speaking of the devil, Trump's PAC has made a first major midterms money move in form of a $10 million splash on ads for the Texas senate race.

I thought same.

Zelensky in his hubris will never actually publicly admit that a Ukrainian drone manned by an SBU official struck the SBU hq, except of course he's saying it in an effort to sell a self-preserving narrative.

LordAdam16:
Nothing.

But the US destroyed an Iranian tanker in response and attacked two others.
If there was an impact, some OSINT sources from the gulf or genocidal ghouls would have reported it
but it is still bizarre that they destroyed an iranian tanker when there was no impact

-Lord
I just read the useless centcom statement😅.



‎"The military statement said a US aircraft carrier and a destroyer evaded multiple [unprovoked] Iranian attacks while patrolling in the region and that no personnel were hurt".




It has to be the air they're breathing in that DC, because a normal individual cannot be "patrolling" unauthorized in another's vicinity, fomenting chaos without let, then be rambling on about an attack by that neighbourhood owner as being unprovoked.

And if nothing was hit by the Iranian missiles as claimed by centcom, what then is the score being settled with the destruction of two tankers?

We should expect another laundry maintenance before next month💀.

⚡US Embassy in Bahrain:

“Due to tensions in the Middle East, the security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation.

The U.S. Embassy reminds American citizens that Iran has previously targeted civilian infrastructure in Bahrain, including hotels in Manama.

Americans currently in the Middle East should exercise heightened vigilance and be aware of potential flight cancellations, airspace closures, and travel disruptions.”
This weekend is becoming very interesting.

That nonsensical law is not enforceable and justiceable if the recording is done in public..

In pricinple and practice, there is no expectation of privacy in public. And anyone can be filmed as long as you are not in your privacy father's sitting room.

It is like asking everyone to close their eyes while walking on the public road, because you don't them to visualise you. Is that practicable? No.

But can you prevent them from entering the privacy of your father's house to film you? Yes.

If you don't want to be seen or recorded in public, stay in your father's house.

Again, there is no expectation of privacy in public. Let that sink in..

Ciao!

Can you compare the percentage in the rise of Diesel to that of the west,Im not talking actual pump price even though its getting close but the percentage.SO is the global impact not affecting us thesame ?
Are you actually being surprised that the price rise percentage here is greater than over there😂?

You forget the useless disparity in exchange rates between both currencies in discourse?

And let's not forget that we still import about half of the diesel we consume daily.

Nope, if we had a sound and strong middle class economy, that shit wont have much effects. Baba, nigerians are extremely struggling now. Forget packaging. 1m is completely useless. If things are costly and money have value to purchase them, wont be issue.
I'm not debating any of those facts with you my brother, but as far as this diesel price spike is concerned, the contributory factors are externally rooted.

Since the beginning of this year, there have been at least fifteen instances of fuel price adjustments both from private and government controlled market sources, yet that fluctuation has largely not affected diesel prices until this week when the U.S diesel price just hit $6 for the first time in America's history.

Subsidy on diesel was dislodged by Obasanjo and its subsequent prices have been determined by geopolitical forces, so our situation is not a detached incident.

Very agreeably, we could have felt this price rise impact way lesser were our inflation rate not so terribly high and our currency value so abysmally crashed.

Hahaha, economic reality in a country affects everything else. Inflation is high, so cost of everything else will be high.
Let me tell u something, ur man got it all wrong. In a country like Nigeria, u dont introduce all these policies at once, especially when u have not define a way to tackle corruption and wastage. This is where he failed and pushed more people into poverty and struggling line.
Only him, removed fuel subsidy, removed cut down on subsidy for electricity, float naira, increased tax base and captured online workers.
Now, all of these plus heavy insecurity which have affected farmlands, cost of everything went to the moon and each person pushing these costs to the end users. Na the problem be that.
He could have done these things one step at a time, do one, watch as it goes, do another, etc.
And most importantly, handle and tackle corruption.
Up to this moment, budget paddling is still happen, paddy paddy govt is still happening, wastage is still happening, inflated price of public projects, still happen, award of contracts without following due process just to give to ur paddy paddy still happening,
budgeting 15billion for SUV is a waste, spending 1.5billion on mass wedding is a waste.
So, who will bear the economic shock of all these? The masses. That is what is happening now. U didnt fix security, u dey remove fuel subsidy, completely, u dey float naira and u dey widen tax coverage and increased sef. Hahahaha, Nigerians will be poorer by end of 2027. Infact, middle class would be wiped out already.
This is not to invalidate the salient points you've raised here, but your argument is largely unnecessary on this issue.

That fellow is sadly correct. The current surge in diesel prices has more to do with the ongoing geopolitical storms between Iran/America and Ukraine/Russia, and very less to do with Tinubu's wayward government.

The Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) says filming and posting unsuspecting people violates the right to informational self-determination under Section 37 of the Constitution and Nigeria Data Protection Act of 2023.




So while you're all cackling like teenagers under the overdose influence of contaminated mushrooms, be sure not to do jail by apprising yourselves of the law in the middle of your waywardness😐!
Education › Re: JAMB, WAEC Fix ₦4,000 One-Time Fee For O’level Result Verification by SonOfWords(m): 4:21pm On Sep 04
Starhearts:
Good development....
No more excessive fees
What's good about this development? What exactly is the meaning of result verification for a result that has already been released by the exam body and certified to be yours? What are they now looking to verify? Whether you've had a gender change surgery or grown a moustache?

Why do you Nigerians tend to swallow everything thrown at you without asking questions even when most of these policies are meant to extort and impoverish you?

Banks will charge you excessively in the name of "atm card maintenance" for a debit card they charged you to issue, then examination bodies will still charge you for so-called verification of a result that they issued to you themselves and you'll be clapping sheepishly😐😡🥲.

Ogidiolu69:
I'd prefer they face the UAE and its Epstein princes. Maybe that will stop the genocide in Sudan and the mining cabals in Nigeria currently running riot.
The mining cabals currently running riot in Nigeria have larger ties to Asian interests (China and Indonesia mostly), as compared to the business being done with the epstein class.

There has always been a wide lacuna in the Nigerian illegal mining business competition, with Asian countries being the larger beneficiaries. Lot of you don't even know that there are significant clusters of Chinese "expatriates" esconced safely under government protection in Kaduna, Kano, Zaria and Maiduguri.

It is that lacuna the West has painfully noticed that they're looking to close using France as a gangplank, hence the recent romance between Yekini amoda, Chagoury and Macron.


To this point, the bulk of the illegally mined minerals are moved through the Kaduna dry port which has over the years been reported by the government to be either "working below capacity or non-functional", just to fend off excessive public scrutiny.

And as far as Nigerians are largely concerned, "na mostly okrika and furniture dey pass through Kaduna port"😂😭.

Funny enough, a significant quantity of our Turkish furniture imports come through that port even.
