Loud, arrogant dismissive...yada yada yada bla bla bla

The question remains the woman you know so well. What do you know of her before her marriage? Because her interest hasn't changed. She is still heavily involved in charity like she was. She did not have a bad publicity like other actresses. She kept to herself. What everyone knew about her was her father, her mother, her divorce and Suit.

So what part of her gave you the vibe of loud, arrogant and dismissive and all of your other silly projections? Is it that you and Piers Morgan know something we do not know about her


You are bitter, hateful and envious like the lots of them

crackkhaus:
You will have to tone down and converse with me with factual statements and not refer to what I type as silly. Very few people are worse than I am here when it comes to making posters appear stupid, so let's not go there.


Now you just asked me to tell you what I knew of her before her marriage minus the Hollywood part, your reason for this is to make it seem like I don't know her real attitude.
Well, this is a rather infantile way to make a point considering you also don't know anything of her minus Hollywood and royal marriage, so in essence, you too can't be sure of her real behavior.

However, here's the difference between you and I and why you're completely going off on a tangent.
She is in public life, her mannerisms and attitudes are under public scrutiny.
The way she behaves around British commoners is very much unacceptable for a member of the royal family, this is not my personal opinion - anyone who actually watches her when she goes on engagements with Harry knows this, it's also something she gets trolled on by the media.
Diana became the people's princess by mastering public mannerisms, Kate Middleton does the same thing and is not so much in bad books.

Whether I know her or you know her before Hollywood or before marriage is besides the point, and shows you've got nothing to say to make a factual argument...this is because her public persona already tells everyone a lot about her mindset. She can't be acting like an outsider who would rather be at home when in public, and then expect that people watching will think she is accommodating and less uptight in private.
No one has that time to start imagining her to be a different person - how a person acts in public is how they will be judged. SIMPLE.

You also called the British impression of Americans a silly stereotype. Again, ignorance..because it exists whether you believe it or not.
It is a pervasive British impression about Americans and it is called a stereotype, meaning it may not be true about ALL Americans.
What this means is that it was now Meghan's job to show/prove she is not like the Americans most British already assumed her to be.

And if she felt that she didn't need to prove anything to anyone, because this is exactly what most entitled arrogant modern women think, then she shouldn't have married a British prince.
That I-dont-care American attitude does not play well in the UK, not to mention when you're now in the royal family whose wealth comes from the tax paid by the very same people you don't care to please.

The little your governors and other local reps have been getting, how many quality roads have they built with it?

Corruption and poor governance are issues for developing regions. It wont make a difference if you were all alone.

Amotekun is the consequence of Buhari's incompetence. However it is not viable. Starting from the availability of funds, abuse and corruption.

In fact, Amotekun's foundation is wonky. Not a fan of Tinubu but the organisation is formed by the disgruntled elements of Afenifere who are against Tinubu. Their issue with Tinubu arose from their greediness too. Either way, all of you are being used.

SpecialAdviser:
I have had a lot of people asking me why this Amotekun has been giving the north sleepless nights. It shows how shallow many Nigerians understand Nigerian politics. In fact let me try to explain something to them. May be they will start understanding Nnamdi Kanu better.

The north contribute very little to Nigerian economic development and would wait for proceeds from Niger Delta oil in order to carry out developmental projects. This is the core cause of Nigerian civil war. Abuja, Kano and other major cities in the north was built solely from oil proceeds.

Suffice is to say that everywhere in the world, oil is not found in every nook and crannies of a country. So Nigeria is not an exception to that simple logic.

But the issue with Nigeria is that the north refuses justice to other parts of Nigeria. Years of military rule refuses tangible project in other parts of the country. And a military channel was put in place to make sure no resistance exists anywhere from Nigeria. This is why you see them colonizing every military and para military organizations. Same reason Obasanjo retired many top military officers of northern origin to wither their influence.

The north fears any resistance that can cause break up and deny them the free flow of Niger Delta oil. The issue is that their mentality of subjugation has caused them big problem managing Nigerian unity. Their notorious nature have even caused a big split within the north itself as many minority northerners have become wiser now. Look at statement from TY Danjuma.

The coming to power by Buhari has escalated this mentality. Fact is that the fear of such subjugations which was evident in Buharis pre election statements caused Igbos to be on the alert resulting to what seemed like a hatred from the Igbos. People like Nnamdi Kanu cashed on this animosity and gained a lot of followership.

The north is always afraid of Nigerian break up but has failed to make Nigeria a country for all.
Im sure America has this intelligence and with the growing hatred they have in the north, we may expect break up earlier than expected.

I would advice Igbos investing so much outside Igboland to think twice before such investments. The future of this country is gloomy and you cannot afford to lose most of your belongings yet again to other Nigerians.

Except divine intervention, the country may have serious issues sooner than expected.

Tell me what you knew of her before her marriage minus the Hollywood part please. She was an actress who kept to herself and her charity. She is not Angelina Jolie!!!

Very silly stereotype! Silly analysis!

crackkhaus:
Brits have never understood why Americans are the way they are (loud, arrogant, etc), it's a common stereotype.
Sassysure, I lie?

Then on top of her being American, she is now a divorcee, a Hollywood actress (some of the fakest people on earth), she doesn't get along with her family members (was it not only her mum that attended her wedding), and then to make it worse, her body language and attitude when meeting with British commoners always appears dismissive...and you're asking what she did wrong?

Even as an actress, one would think she would have been skilled enough to act a part in public..lol.
She shot herself in the foot.

How is Harry emotional stable? Because he did what everyone at his age did. Or are you just trying to project the narrative of the emotional impact of his mum's death on him?

Do you know who was emotionally unstable and royal? Margaret, the Queen Elizabeth's sister.

Do you who didn't do his duty and promises to his wife? Prince Charles, Elizabeth's son.

Guess who has been having sex with underaged girls, Prince Andrew, Elizabeth's son.

Emotionally unstable indeed!

sassysure:
There was this poll that was deleted off social media.
Saw it on BBC1.
One random social media user said they should vote for Megan to be stripped off her official title.
Like joke, thousand voted yes.
That was how this started.
Not up to 3 weeks they made that announcement.
I'm thinking, like the news commentator, they never saw this coming.
It was a silly online joke by a teen but the rate with which people voted yes was alarming.

Also, I am positive this is what made Harry made that decision.
Being a highly volatile person he did it on social media instead of consulting his family first.
When asked to comment on that poll, the family where in shock and I think it was Prince Charles that said that it's a joke taken far. Everything about that poll died natural death.

Harry has always been the prodigal son. Emotionally unstable and alone in th mot of plenty.

The opinions are nothing extreme or unusual.

That woman is no Angelina Jolie. So what exactly is their problem?

cococandy:
Until today, there are speculations that Epstein was silenced in prison so that the true extent of Andrew’s (and some other world royalty) dealings with him won’t fully be known. A black man would never survive even half a speculation about that much less flourish even after evidence of him being a pedophile is established.

This black woman's offense was having a few opinions and leaving a bad marriage. Let’s crucify her. afterall she knew he was a royal and should have rejected his proposal even if she liked him.

It is well.

Exactly and their blood is royalty.

Let's keep the racism and classicism kites flying high.

You will think a black person from a former colony would know better

cococandy:
They are white. Their offense doesn’t matter

What kind of standard? Are we talking about the standard that led to the death of Harry's mother? What exactly has Meghan done wrong?

By the way we can talk about William's alleged infidelity

Then we can move to Prince Andrew sexual exploits of underaged girls

Oh! What about Prince Philps numerous gaffes. Very unbecoming of royalty


All of you can keep projecting your hate, envy and silly analysis.

sassysure:
Exactly

They don't put food on my table.

But the hatred is real here on that babe.

She should have know that she is getting married to a very traditional family and some certain standards are expected.

Will they live happily ever after, I doubt it.
Harry is her 3rd husband.
Wish I can see them married in the next ten yrs.

Two of them are using each other.

We are not in their shoes. Both of them are old enough to make the best decision concerning their family life.

Reference:
Not me. I don't command the media both press and social. That was the talk back then when she was in. The new Diana she was called. But now she has quit it is understandable folks are now in denial. The truth remains that a section of the British public wants the monarchy gone. Others want its influence as shallow as the other monarchies of Europe and others want it to stay and remain as traditional as its roots are.

What I am saying is. If you are going to cause an effect on that institutions by union you certainly cannot do that by quitting. Something obviously has happened in the past one year that has tipped the couple over the edge amd made them leave. If it was as fundamental as concerning Harry he woukd have left before he married Megan. She is certainly involved in his decision. His leaving is essentially about her.

Media is the reason celebrities lead hard lives.

You can not form academic on people's lives especially those who are not new to scrutinised lives and who are going through what you would never experience.

Like I stated, you are talking about the 6th in line, whose mother was vilified, and technically murdered by the same media.

peacettw:
Happiness and privacy are all relative constructs. Who among us can claim to be truly happy or absolutely private in their dealings? Again, many researchers have pointed out that in the science of happiness, to be constantly happiness is in itself a disease and not normal. To be human means having to create that fine balance between what we call happiness and 'normalcy'.

It hardly ever matters if one is poor, rich, 6th in line to the throne or an ex president. At the end of it all, we all will have to face whatever life throws at us. Creating that balance remains the vital key to survival and not throwing away the baby with the bathwater.

Blame for the vitriol directed against them while the royal family stood back and watched.

Well, lets continue to blame the victims.

peacettw:
On the contrary, his write up points to the fact that at the end of the day, we all must admit that Meghan remains the sole variable that tipped the scale which led to this current chain of events.

I will like to think that both are to be blamed but then again, who am I kidding.

How has she sought to modernise it? Are you the cockroach in Meghan's cupboard?

Reference:
What are you saying. The BRF is an institution with laid down rules concerning succession which Harry will have been aware of since he began using a fork and spoon. And these are not the dark ages where warmongering determined who had the throne so there simplycannot be any bad blood between William and HHarry as to the throne just as thete is absolutely none between Charles and Andrew just as there is none between HRH Queen Elizabeth and Princess Anne her sister.

No one is jealous of the other and certainly in the modern era there no one is remotely thinking of changing the order of succession. Thanks to HRH Queen Elizabeth the BRF has come to a degree of stability and she has do e evrything to ensure the throne remains firmly in the House of Windsor which it wasn't always.

When you walk into an institution with your eyes open you surely must be prepared for a change in the way you think, speak and act. That is normal. What is abnormal is you exoecting the institution to vhange overnight just because you joined, an institution over a thousand years old, with hundreds of active practitioners. If she felt she was going to modernise it and de-radicalise it then she should have been prepared for a long, hard battle. But it is evident she wasn't.

Why then criticise the institution that she was attracted to in the first place.

Are we talking about a future king or someone that is 6th in line?

Also, Obama's situation is very different from Harry and Megan's. One is temporary, the otger is permanent. They have years and family life before them. Now, they can sue defamtors to penury

Also, happiness and privacy may not be your ultimate goals in life. To someone else, they are very important.

peacettw:
The American press was more evil to Obama and his family but he went for a second term. He didn't resign and secede as an American.

No amount of reason will ever make this right.

My thoughts exactly.

However my issue is the way the presidency has handled it. Being a Fulani man, he is in the best position to put an end to this issue but he has failed woefully.

You cannot blame those who are wary of the Fulani people. They have enough historical evidence to back up their claims including our political history since independence. It also doesn't help that the Northern borders are very porous. We have Fulanis from other countries coming in and going without proper documentation.

I am not saying there aren't several instances we have also been the aggressor against Northerners in the South. A good president will try to resolve this issue and not worsen it.

Inasmuch I want other regions to defend itself, I don't trust Amotekun. It is definitely going to bite us in the ass.

RisenPhoenix:
The thing is... hate feeds on itself. We have had farmers, Fulani herdsmen and disputes since time immemorial. It is only recently that you see this hate, and it is driven more by tribal and religious bigotry than by an actual desire to save our farms.

To answer your question, farms are usually surrounded by bush where the cattle graze and when farmers say that their fatmlands were destroyed, they usually mean that cattle entered one corner of their farm and trampled a few rows or mounds. Some farms are overgrown by weeds, though when you hear the 'outraged' farmers talk about compensation later, you will think that it was a ten thousand acre mechanized corporate farm. I am not saying that there are no mistakes made; I am just pointing out that in my experience, showing common courtesy would probably prevent a lot of grief.

Amd there are rogues in every tribe and profession. I was not dicussing existential socialism.

Tinubu was and is still a leader

He is a former senator. A former governor. He was instrumental into bringing in Buhari. He is a key leader in APC. Like every other APC and PDP leaders, he uses corruption and violence to win elections in Lagos and in other states. I heard he is also wanted in the US.

I am not seeking to argue with you. We know your type.

itsme01:
perhaps your leaders destroyed your future please dont blame Tinubu

*Since 1999 we've had 3 PDP governors and atleast 3 EFCC chairmen, all of them investigated him yet non found him wanting of corruption unlike people like Orji Kalu, Fayose and others

*Tinubu worked as an Accountant in Deliote chicago, Price water cooper chicago, Exxon Mobil west africa and came to set up his own private practice Alpha Beta, employing local graduates (something your governors would never do but lauder money) yet you are calling his company corrupt

*You say he arms thug, why not prove it to us where police caught any thug and accused Tinubu.. atleast we can prove that of Melaye and Fayose

Please you people should be objective with your hate of tinubu

Let's see

You are defending a company owned by one of the most corrupt individuals in Nigeria. A man who arms thugs, kills political enemies, destroying our future for his utmost benefit. It is fooolery to support such a man, except you are gaining substantially from him.

itsme01:
why bad mouthing someone else's privately registered company like a child, just for political gains? are the states like Bayelsa using alphabeta or northern states, even west african countries complaining of bad service? or why try pull someone 100 years ahead of you down?

the fool even mentioned alpha beta consulting... he should limit his immaturity to insulting Ajimobi if he wants to last in politics

Big gamble!

How do you not know if there is a farm? I believe everyone knows that there are rogue Fulani herdsmen. In the interest of security, it is better to dissuade this normadic lifestyle.

RisenPhoenix:
Not true. It doesn't work. Cattle blood might make them nervous, but not to that extent, and do you know how much blood it will take to adequately cover one acre of land only?

The best way is to fence your land with live fencing, or to approach the herder calmly (without undue aggressiveness) and tell him to move the cattle away from your farm. Most of the time, either the cattle go out of control, or the herdsmen don't know that there is a farm there.. I have farmlands and when I tell them to move their cattle, they usually do so shamefacedly. Contrary to most people's personal beliefs, they don't usually do it deliberately. Fights happen when you pick up your cutlass and start treatening them. We should learn to address others politely, even if they don't have PhDs like we do.

If not madness, why should a farmer be afraid of protecting his farms

Agboriotejoye

There goes your honest and promise keeper President.

I am not Buhari supporter

How many of his promises makes sense? Minus the Chinese trade deal, the others are merely ego trips for him and his little fan boys.

Can you cite one of his economic policy that could be attributed to US present economy?

Agboriotejoye:
You simply don't understand strategy. How can someone go bankrupt and still be a billionaire. Go and check what it means to declare bankruptcy in the American system. Trump is no angel. But at least he's true to the promises he made Americans. How I wish our man here did that.
Buhari is a good man according to you his supporters. But the results we have from his governance are mostly negative
Trump is a bad man according to you, the results of his governance are mostly positive.
So go edit your last line again to reflect reality.

You are sugarcoating it.

Trump is rude, selfish, liar, corrupt, cunning, arrogant, nepostist, full of BS and a crony capitalist. A smart man wouldn't have gone bankrupt twice, nor create sub par university, he won't renege on contract and frustrate contractors. Above all, how on earth does a smart man make a loss on a casino?

What about that particular trait they both share? Bigotry. I see you are not Hausa Fulani. For you, Bigotry is great if it is not directed at you.

Agboriotejoye:
Cause Trump is everything Buhari ain't.
Brutally honest, hardworking, result-oriented, promise keeper and most importantly, smart unlike the do as I say not do as I do hypocrite we have here

Funny that people who hate Buhari are Trump supporters.

How does that even work in your brains? Jokers!

Do they look like they care? Who has presidency helped?

You have a point there. We can also try to be accomodating in a shared apartment.

youngestgrad:
Majority of houses in London are owned by whites, Imagine they all have this preconceived opinion about African cooking, If you travel there where would you sleep?

What yeye soup? Most Nigerian tribes use dry ingredient and locust beans. You cannot avoid a strong smell if use any of the two, for non Nigerians they will definitely find it too strong.

Antoeni:
It’s Only the Yoruba People cooking that Have th

is very Offensive Odour when Cooking that their Yeye Soup

That is for her to figure out. If she doesn't like the smell why should she have to suffer through it when she has a choice.

youngestgrad:
This is one of the reasons black Americans don't like Africans especially Nigerians, We Idolize white skinned people nothing they do is wrong in our eyes. The white landlady says the house is open to only Europeans because of smell of African food, have any of you smelt Greek food, IDIOTS!!

Our foods smell. She may find it too strong for her, it is her house.

It is important to ventilate while cooking.

Who cares about Bride price? That is your gooddamn headache, not mine! Last time I checked, it is always between several silly men.

Like I said, dont ask what you cannot give.

TonyeBarcanista:
[s][/s]
SIL paid bride price, fulfilled traditional/religious rites and married the man's daughter!

Not the other way round

For political reasons, the FG won't try that. If only the FG had done its job against rogue Fulani herdsmen, there wont be Amotekun.

mu2sa2:
By the time police, Dss and soldiers start arresting the amotekun jesters for carrying illegal firearms or obstructing the highway or using unroadworthy vehicles, amotekun will disappear as quickly as it appeared. They can go to court and, hahahaha, there the needful will be done to bury the amotekun for good. Op, you've been hearing of federal might, right? Ok, it's real!

Okay

atarapa:
u lied this time

.

Sad but very true.

pocohantas:
I said it here once, the minute a Nigerian wife is sick- she gets shipped to her parents house.

If the wife dies, the children would be shipped to a relative's house to be taken care of by another mother figure. Some element quoted me to call it hate, but I see it happen every other day.

Yet one prick will open mouth and ask what a woman does in a marriage? Lmao. It is easier for a woman to hold her kids together under one roof, than a man to.

The greatest issue widows face is lack of funds. Asides that, they fare way better than widowers- ALONE.

Tell them to learn childcare, they will say you are trying to emasculate them. Very anyhow creatures.
