SA should apply this rule as well...😏😏😏... So that any man who marries an SA lady would have to live in SA for 20 years before being eligible for an SA passport.

NIGERIANS DONT NEED SA PASSPORT. NIGERIANS DONT NEED SA CITIZENSHIP

Nigerians need simple permits to be able to travel btwn SA and Nigeria easily and freely without the baseless harassments and do business freely without useless discrimination and xenophobic harassment

There is absolutely Nothing special or spectacular about SA passport or citizenship. U have it but u are still poor broke and always doing protest
So what will the citizenship do for me.

US should face its problems created by Trump and leave Nigeria alone. Nigeria is not answerable to US. US is sliding into Recession and acute unemployment. They are busy pokenosing into Nigeria

Nigeria is a sovereign country

Edward Ekpo sounds Nigerian. The Calabar man hiding behind US Institute must go-to hell

I've said it before. GOVS ARE THE REAL PROBLEMS OF NIGERIA. They are egocentric corrupt animals.
They want LGs to ne amswerable to them but dont want to be answerable to the president. They hold their state assembly in choke hold by the neck.
How can U be offered 50% of allocation and still refuse? Why should they even remit to U. Does the state not get its own allocations including security votes and IGR?

The president needs to do something drastic about this. The presidency needs to give the LGs some moral support to have balls to be autonomous.

The so called perpetual protestes who always protest against the FG wont know this is the perfect reasom for protest. Against the Govs

A FREE LGS NATIONWIDE PROTEST

Those nations can't be united against the US, the US is a necessary evil to the world. 80% of innovations and research shaping the world goes on there , it's not fluke. Their military industrial complex can't be wished away, it is what it is...

Can US eat its innovations alone if the world gangs up against it? US needs to export its products to survive.
"While the US historically held a strong lead in technological innovation, China is rapidly catching up and even surpassing the US in certain areas, particularly in areas like AI, electric vehicles, and 5G, while the US maintains a lead in specific areas like high-performance computing and biotechnology."

I used to love US more than China b4 the coming of Trump but the world needs to rally round China for now until Trump is gone.

There is nothing US can do that China cannot do.
If EU and Russia can sit and sort their differences and forget the past. If Russia can drop its ego and bullying tactics, Russia also has high tendencies

US exports is worth $3 Trillion.
What are US major exports?
crude oil, refined petroleum, gasoline, gas turbines, nuclear reactors, medical equipment, motor vehicles, and commercial airplanes.

Now tell me these things cant be sourced from other countries?
Airplanes for example are made in United States, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Brazil, China, Japan, and Russia.
With a gang up, China, Japan, Germany, Russia can double up their Airplanes productions.

See i know it will be hard but it's possible. Dont also forget that US usually places embargo on some trades because it seeks to advance its own trades but with a gang up, and countries coming together with a united front, these embargos will be ignored.

That shitt is just concoction .

I've said it times without number that theres been no empire that lasted forever that the US crumbling empire will eventually collapse

Amen. It will

Why is the U.S. so powerful in global trade?

1. It's Not Just Population — It’s Economic Power:

The U.S. might have only ~4% of the world's population, but it accounts for over 15–25% of global GDP, depending on the metrics.

It’s the #1 consumer economy. Companies around the world rely heavily on American consumers to buy their goods. For example, many countries export cars, electronics, and even raw materials directly to the U.S. for major profits.

2. Dollar Domination:

The U.S. dollar is the world’s reserve currency. That means many global transactions — including oil trades, debt settlements, and foreign exchange reserves — are done in USD.

This gives the U.S. a major economic advantage and leverage (e.g., sanctions, SWIFT access, etc.)

3. Military and Strategic Power:

The U.S. isn’t just an economic force. It’s a military superpower with hundreds of bases around the world.

Nations often align with U.S. policy out of strategic necessity, not just economics.

4. Global Institutions Were Built Around the U.S.:

After WWII, institutions like the IMF, World Bank, WTO, and even the UN were heavily shaped (or bankrolled) by the U.S.

That global order still favors U.S. influence and policy direction.

Why doesn’t the world just ignore the U.S.?

1. Interdependence:

The global economy is deeply interlinked. Supply chains span dozens of countries, and cutting off the U.S. would mean massive disruptions for everyone.

Many economies — especially emerging ones — depend on exports to the U.S. for survival.

2. Tech and Innovation:

The U.S. dominates in tech, pharmaceuticals, software, and research.

Even if you don’t want to deal with American politics, you might need their semiconductors, patents, or software licenses to run your economy.

3. "Boycotting" Has a Price:

Countries that go against the U.S. (e.g., Iran, North Korea, Venezuela) often get hit with sanctions and financial restrictions that cripple their economies.

The cost of boycotting the U.S. is often too high unless a large bloc acts in unity — which is hard to achieve due to diplomatic rivalries, dependencies, or fear of retaliation

So, is there a way out?

Some countries are starting to reduce dependence on the U.S.:

BRICS is pushing for a new financial system outside the dollar.

Nations like China, Russia, and India are increasing bilateral trade in their own currencies.

Regional trade blocs are forming (like RCEP in Asia or AfCFTA in Africa) that prioritize internal trade.

But creating a world that can truly ignore or boycott the U.S. requires:

-Massive economic re-balancing,

-New financial systems,

-Unified political will — and that’s where things get tricky.

"Countries that go against the U.S. (e.g., Iran, North Korea, Venezuela) often get hit with sanctions and financial restrictions that cripple their economies."


Now imagine the whole European Union. Asia and Middle East and Africa

US WONT SURVIVE.
US cant fight everyone at once and win

Difrent:
Because if people try to, America will react angrily
And trust me you don't want to be at the receiving end of US anger.

Ordinary mention of BRICS moving away from using dollars as currency of international trade it began threatening them with sanctions

Angrily at The whole world?
How did America become a super power? Is it not because most countries decided to become allies?
Now if America is fighting the whole of Europe and China and Middle East and Asia.
Are u telling me Only America will defeat everyone joint together?
Thats not possible.
It may take a while but if they all come together, America will be brought to its knees.
Back home in US, there is even strong opposition to Trump's moves even from people that voted him. Daily protests all over the country

US right now is tilting towards recession due to these tarrifs. Unemployment is going up. Stock market is going low

Some BOLD countries have anounced retaliatory
tarrifs. . China. Brazil. Canada. Mexico .
EU sayd they will announce theirs

The world needs realignment

Maybe I'm not economically knowledgeable enough.
I dont understand why everyone is angry n crying over US tarrifs. US has a population of 340M
The world has a population of 8.6B.
So if a country with only 340M is giving the whole world headache, why cant the whole world boycott, abandon and ignore that country?
Why is trade with America so important?
Why cant all other countries come together and trade with each other? Ofcos there will be some sell outs that want to side with US.

But this crap US is doing needs a new handstands approach. No whining or crying or even negotiating.

WHY CANT AMERICA BE BOYCOTTED?

Flag off

I give it to this b!tchh. She's good in propaganda

This lunatic talks too much

Expel the disrespectful ediot

1st. Before continuing reading


RIVERS IS NOT THE MOST POWERFUL STATE IN NIGERIA

Solomon, how much were U paid to write this piss of junk full of fallacies?

Ur narrative is very useless dumb stupidd and brainless. That is the normal chorus of the song
The mc says our mama., the backups will say your mama , telling the next person. ..
U now wrote a junk misleading brainless unreadable epistle.

So painting road is new look?..

Rubbish

Thats my guy. Osho baba.
To hell with Abaribe and its tribalism

Daniel's letter is NEEDLESS
The Gov's response is childish also.
Why will a state govt allow the FG take over one of its institutions? It flatly shows that the State Govt is not capable of maintaining the school.

But since they belong to the same party, Daniel shouldnt have written the letter publicly to expose the present govt while praising his own past govt. Thats ego tripping.
And the response of the govt, trying to justify the take over is crap and childish.
As elderstateman, the gov should have called Daniel to a lunch to explain

Abaribe is a fanatical tribalistic ediot

Rubbish bill

What ia with the useless AI foreign voice over?
Irritating

What the Bleep is Christian court? What rubbish is going on in Nigeria?

I like men like this who do not shy away from putting erratic eccentric women in their place.

Lets. Just forget going to world cup

Rubbish

100% True

Obi now talks recklessly with so much desperation

Obi is too desperate. Its becoming irritating

So how is Atiku achieving his presidential ambition in this junk U wrote?

Which f00ls still go to church?

Have these ediots not seen and heard enough??

Amaechi has a camp? Who are those in his camp? Amaechi? Like seriously? Who is taking Amaechi serious?

Atiku again? Hahahahahaha

Obi? Hahaha hahaha


Tinubu will spend 8yrs. Nobody born of woman can unseat Tinubu

I swear, the laws on slander and defamation of character are so weak in Nigeria. If not, buffoons like Sowore will pay their last cents on damages
