Rubbish ... conspiracy nonsense from dopey trump and his looney right-wing party. Not worth my time. Do some research on the sustained assault on ISIS under Obama. Thanks to Obama, the Kurdish peshmerga and the PYD (Democratic Union Party) were given substantial military backing. These groups did most of the legwork that damaged and defeated ISIS. Trump eventually threw them under the bus to please his benefactor Putin.

Hillary Clinton provides a historic narrative, dating back to the Russian-Afghan conflict in the 1970s/1980s. It’s no secret the West, under mostly American republican leadership, backed the mujahedeen with weapons and logistics.

These groups may have evolved into the present day extremist fundamentalists, but how do you attribute cause to Obama and Hillary? That’s my question pls enlighten us

ISIS was hand tools of Barrack Obama and some far East elites to destroy the world.. Thanks for V. Putin and D. Trump who brought their zenith power to nearly zero. That was the major reason behind Golf Nations Crisis back then.

ISIS escalate the power of some other terrorist groups across the globe.. E.g boko haram.
Unfounded, speculative

This thread is nonsense, now patriotism apart! Nigeria is the Economic, Political and Population powerhouse as well as The Largest Consumer Market, Africa’s first Trillion dollar Economy, with a G.D.P, the size of the next two economies combine, now! Egypt might be on the most powerful country list not because of any other thing but solely cos of it’s Military power that’s basically all of it, Egypt gets 2 billion dollar in military aid from the United States now you see where it’s military prowess is coming from, now lest not forget that Nigeria has always place is foreign policy on Africa not the whole world therefore making Nigeria arguably the Giant of Africa, the representative of the bLacknation and arguably Sub-Saharan Africa power house, when you talk of powerful do you know Lagos if name a country would be the 5 largest economy in Africa, potentially the 3rd in coming years... no doubt Egypt is Africa’s Military power house, but this won’t make up with out having money or political strongholds, besides Egypt most time associates it self with the south East Asians with the likes of Syria, Saudi and all.. making all other norther Africans in the same thing! Nigeria is the representative of the black race and Africa as a whole, we all know the west doesn’t wish Nigeria well and all other agencies collating and predicting, either they say bad things about Nigeria portraying us as a bad nation other than showing our good side! Forget the List! Nigeria is Africa’s only Hope to being a super power if it’s plays it card right! Peace
Ranking is not a precise science.

It involves a measure of subjectivity, fuelled by geopolitical perceptions. How a nation is perceived is down to factors like national leadership, developmental initiatives, military effectiveness/military industrial complex, fairness, respect and influence etc.

Take a good look at Nigeria. Consider net perceptions of our citizens across Africa. Corruption and nepotism has eaten deep and rendered our military almost useless. Chad/Niger, all much smaller nations have a much more effective military and will attain a higher effectiveness perception soon if not already .

The incompetent present national leadership has exacerbated this perception problem in substantial terms

Let’s put it in context.

Nigeria, as an entity, is systematically flawed. The ‘staying back to fix the country’ mantra is untenable and futile. Your positive influence is inconsequential. You are at the mercy of a recurring, selfish, incompetent and corrupt leadership at all levels.

I was in a similar situation as the OP many many years back and forever thankful to God for making the right call. I migrated. Started from the bottom, odd jobs and all to fund my education. Two masters degrees from top universities and a decade in investment banking /technology in top global firms, I now run my own high tech firm. Here, what you become is what you make of yourself, your desire, your focus, your abilities. Unlike in Nigeria, you are not shackled by a backward, limiting system. In Nigeria, you may get to the top after many years, but can end up in abject want in a very short time. Zero social safety net. The negative factors are overwhelming- lack of security, healthcare, etc.

Dude, I attest that I suffered 10 times more discrimination and harassment in Nigeria than I have here in the UK. These advanced societies are fairer, value oriented systems. You add value, you WILL thrive. The OPs dedication to education and self development is precisely what works here. You’ll be propelled to new heights with time and commitment. Steadily. You can contribute into Nigeria as a diasporian if you so desire through projects, which is precisely what I’ve done. The Nigeria of today has zero consideration for your tomorrow.

I have run a number of models on Nigeria and can tell you it’s not looking good at all. The decline has been in precipitation for years, exacerbated by the present crop of incompetent and nepotistic leadership. It’s akin to a jog to the bottom.

The far and near term prognosis for Nigeria is troubling and unflattering

Be guided, not only for your sake, but for that of your children unborn

datola:
This that every one is leaving for Canada. Who will now remain to fix Nigeriahuh

Most of you people just like to reap from where you did not sow.

And you are not going to the Canada to solve any problem for humanity but just to get 'good employment' and now pray that Nigeria catches fire and averyone remaining there should go to hell.

For those of you badmouthing Nigeria. Remember 'ajo Ko le da bi ile' (Other people's country can never be.like your own country)

By God's grace Nigeria shall be great again in my life time.

Leave his house.

Alternatively, can arrange a few soldiers /police come shake him up a bit on assault allegations. I am certain that will work. Just be prepared to vacate their house after this. Dude is a coward inside, picking on vulnerable people
