That's why I prefer these kinds of masquerades.... Just for pure entertainment... Not unnecessary stunts...

Scary though..... Trust Nigerian wheat merchants to start hoarding it already

WoundedLamb:
Thank you for the thoughtful and respectfully presented argument. Please, don't be offended but I don't think you really addressed any of the things I said (or maybe I didn't fully understand your response). You're telling me why Russia doesn't want Ukraine in NATO. I think we all know that already. I gave you reasons why Ukraine wants to be in NATO. I explained Ukraine's desire to join NATO is not a want but a need. It is a survival move and Russia pushed them to that. So if you're asking them not join NATO or EU, what would you suggest they do? Just stay and be oppressed/sliced into non existence by Russia? It's like hitting a child and asking him not to cry.

As for the regions, are you saying the fact that we have some Ukrainians who speak Russian and feel Russian is a good reason for Putin to keep invading thier country and violating thier integrity even after signing he'd never do that? Is it that when they were signing the Budapest, they didn't know there were Russians in Ukraine? Or they just wanted to decieve the country into giving up ALL thier nuclear weapons? Can Russia be trusted at this point? We have Yorubas in Binin Republic, will you support Nigeria to invade Binin for any reason? This is the 21st century, I really don't think things work that way anymore.

I read you correctly about Cuba. When presented side by side with this one, they're not exactly the same in terms causative and operational factors, but the motifs are similar and we can borrow a few things from how it was eventually resolved. We can talk about that if you want (the comparison is another interesting subject), but I don’t subscribe to the idea of justifying the slaughtering of people in Eastern Europe based on anti-American sentiments. The focus shouldn't be the oppressors but the victims. And when you view it that way, it begins to make little sense to say "because Cubans suffered this, it's OK for Ukrainians to suffer it". Like I said, we can talk about this cause it's a worthy subject but not a necessarily a justification for Putin.

Great response I must say.. And I am more than willing to learn more from you, cause it seems you know so much about international politics.

For the records, I am not in support of Russia's invasion, especially as so many lives are being lost in the process.

My concern though, is why are western countries so concerned about Ukraine when lives have also been lost in places like Palestine.

I feel it boils down to personal interest (I stand to be corrected though).

Putin has taken his actions too far, I agree but I think she is concerned of Ukraine being used as a NATO military base just like America was concerned about Cuba when USSR sent some missiles over there.

In the case of invasion... America is also guilty.... We have the banana wars of Nicaragua, Iraq, Kuwait, Panama, Cuba.

In many of the above cases, the invasions were uncalled for... And they left the countries worse than they were when they invaded them.

Like I said, I will be more than willing of you could school me more.... Thanks bro.

I was wondering... Do the hausa tribe have their own form of masquerade?

If they do... What do hausa people call masquerade in their language and can one of you here share any picture or video link to your local masquerade?

Thank you

WoundedLamb:
This is is the type of discussion that's worthwhile, solutions. But let me ask, where is the compromise on Russian side? Because from what you wrote, I can deduct you're simply saying Ukraine should give in to Putin's demands. Removing his men from Ukraine is not a compromise, it's just an expected end. And please, forget about the West temporarily cause it's obvious the anti-West sentiments are the reason people support Putin without considering the real issues between the two countries involved.

In case you don't get what I mean, I'm asking, if Ukraine agrees to leave NATO alone, what would Putin do to address the reasons they decided to join NATO in the first place? It's a negotiation, so what is he bringing to the table? Or are you saying Ukraine should just be left at the mercy of Russia?

Here is a background. About 3 years after the split, Ukraine gave up all their nuclear weapons to Russia while Russia signed a memorandum called the Budapest Memorandum in which they agreed to forever respect the sovereignty of Ukraine. But seizing Crimea in 2014, Russia violated that Memorandum. They took Crimea before the referendum. The Minsk agreement was signed after this but was also violated. Russia went for Donbas that same year. It was very obvious they'd keep slicing the less powerful Ukraine. Let's not even talk about the minor harassment every now and then.

Now, Ukraine is looking to NATO/EU to put an end to thier misery and Russia is saying they shouldn't. It's like pushing you to the wall and asking you to break it and keep moving. So I ask again, what should Ukraine do? Sign another agreement that Russia would violate before the next day? Or hand the country over to Russia? Brother, an ideal solution is one that ensures Ukraine's safety and sovereignty remain intact. So when I see people say Ukraine should just forget NATO, I ask "and then do what?" Ukraine wouldn't be looking at NATO if Russia respected them the way the US respects Canada.

I agree with you to a certain degree.... But I hope you know the trouble is way beyond any pact... Have you wondered why some parts of Ukraine see themselves more as Russians?

Are you aware that even before the pact, Russia were sacking villages in Ukraine and put Russians there as the new inhabitants?

I normally won't care about what's going on in Ukraine cause countries like Palestine and Nigeria has faced even worse situations and the whole world turned deaf...

Have you heard about the CUBA MISSILE CRISIS?

I feel Russia is concerned that if Ukraine joins NATO, the west will readily deploy warheads there... And Ukraine is too close for comfort...

It is similar to John F Kennedy reaction to Cuba when USSR deployed warheads in Cuba....

Beautiful

How many of us played this game as a child? Many indomie generation have never heard nor seen it sef

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vy_aokUu8c

Ayo (pronounce aah-yoh), Mankala or Mancala, is a traditional game played by the Yoruba people who reside in South Western Nigeria. Known as the "Game of the Intellectual", this game requires a lot of mathematical skill. Ayo is played in with carved wooden box, containing twelve holes (with six holes on each side), and 48 Ayo seeds (four seeds in each hole).

This two player game runs counter-clockwise. Players can only pick up seeds from their side of the board, unless they are “capturing” seeds from the opponent’s side of the board. The objective is to “capture” all your opponent’s seeds.

Ayo is usually played during the day, after work is finished. It is not just a game for the older crowd; in fact, many young children learn how to play Ayo in order to sharpen their math skills. Ayo is generally played by people of the same age group and gender, meaning men play with men, women play with other women, and children play amongst themselves. The mixing of these groups is very uncommon.

That is what makes this specific video fun to watch. How the child has mastered the game to the extent of trashing an adult (who is expected to be more experienced) in the game.

Depends..... Its not how much you earn, its how well you manage it.....

Let's say you work 20 days a month... Multiply by 1500... That's 30k per month on transport.

1k feeding for 20 days gibes you 20k

Left with 35k

If I were the person.... I will try to save at least 20k per month ... Leaving me with 15k for family/misc

Go back to your expenses... Yiu should look for cheaper ways to go to work... You can look for someone in your area to follow for free for part of all of the journey, even if its just to or fro office.

Another option is to look for accommodation somewhere close to the workplace....

You can also do contribution to buy foodstuff in bulk... My wife does that....... With 2k per month for the whole year... They buy so many stuffs in bulk by November.... Groundnut oil, stick fish, cray fish, etc that lasts all through the next year.

I know family men working as security guards.... Earning minimum wage, but can still save up... I also know those earning 300k, but are being chased around by loan sharks who they owe for months.

Lack of money management has put many people in deep shit.... I found the below video interesting

This happened in front of Union bank in Aba, Abia State.

According to witnesses, the yahoo plus suspect parked his while Mercedes Benz ML 350 in the busy street and started behaving abnormally.

When they found out he had ran mad, the called on the police to come gain access into his car so they can identify the suspect and also get contacts of friends or relatives.

On searching his box, tye police discovered various fetish items like calabash, pots and red candles.

This prompted the on lookers to believe the victims condition to be connected to yahoo plus or money ritual.

Yahoo plus or cyber spiritualism is a cybercrime that involves the procurement and use of mystical, spiritual and supernatural powers by yahoo boys to cast a spell on victims.

This ritual enables a yahoo boy to command his victims to do as he says. The victims will not be able to object his demands.

This ritual involves the yahoo boy in-person to pretend to be mad for a certain period and after that, money starts coming in.
