Ugosample: Do you think Africa feeds the world? That's a joke! The Western countries are developing synthetic substitutes to our major cash crop exports. If Africa wants to develop, we have to improve Intra regional trade in Africa, Diversify our economies, and be united. If these are lacking, NO DEVELOPMENT.

It is now obvious that you don't know what tilts national economies and the structure which those economies feeds on.

Nobody says that Africa is going to stop feeding somebody here but I will like to give you a clue so maybe you can understand REAL economics more better.

The USA produces enough food to feed twice its population and still have more to give away, now can you tell us why there are so many poor starving people in USA and they have to resort to food stamps ?
If they are in abundance why is the food stamps itself being threatened? Why can't they just give away food. Why are many homeless and why are many complaining ?

Mind you we are not talking about food but real economics, I just want you to research and learn some useful things for yourself.

A few tweaks here and there and some nations will cry, all Africa needs is co-ordination.

@Cap and Underground

Well, the question both of you guys would be asking is how can Africa(black Africa) Unite .
How can the unity of black African nations be achieved ? forget about organizations like AU and ECOWAS as it is at the present moment because those no longer serve the purpose with which it was created in the first place.

We can really not be talking about Haiti while we are on fire here.

The post is meant to inform Africans of what is happening to their brothers in Haiti so that they can identify the same trick when it comes to them and readily reject it. even if it comes in the name of Aid,Humanitarian Intervention,Economic Co-operation, Globalization, Economic liberalization or Cross Continental Economic Bailout having these knowledge before hand is the key to identify the exploits.

Psylas: Both of you are silly islamists
Saudi, Turkey and Syria, Iran hate themselves, †hєү are †hє cause of their prob, that's wha† ISLAM can do †o its pple

and maybe you can tell us why they hated each other. Maybe you can tell us why US is bent on destroying Syria ?
Why the USA invaded Iraq ?
i will like to see hoe you can factor Islam into the whole scenario.

African as a continent with its resources and population does not have to be affected by any economic disaster anywhere else apart from Africa.
And yess we can pull them down if we are coordinated and we want to.It could be as devastating as we want it to be. if we want half of their populations to starve we can do it easily if we have the coordination.

Use a Bank transfer. You can open a domiciliary account at a bank at your country of residence and have a relation in Nigeria create a Domiciliary account . many banks charges about 0.5% of the total amount and there is usually no charge at the receiving end.

ALISMILE: US caused the prob the very day they declared 'the red line'. I knew enemies of syria would take advantage of that. A reasonable mind can easily see this. By the way why hasnt this topic hit frontpage and headlines.

I think the whole red line thing was preplanned. the number one enemy of Syria is Israel and US. USA trying to portray itself as disinterested and unbiased is just a failed project because they have a long history which says the opposite about them.

PAGAN 9JA:
In my opinion, all Commonwealth members must unite and form their own league and kick britain out. They must then protest at the UN and against GB, to help in their financial aid and development, no tags attached. They can also protest by imposing trade sanctions/restrictions, etc. unitedly against this colonist nation. And also pressurize for the return of our cultural and historical artefacts of value.

When you look at organizations like AU and what it has turned into you can a see a simple constant which many revolutionaries in Africa has always overlooked, As long as the Neo-colonialist were allowed to meddle in African affairs and thereby sustain the capability to install puppet presidents who acts as a proxy for implementing British neo-colonial policies in Africa, there could never be a united African front to this colonial onslaught.

Until African nations whom are liberated form a coalition and liberate other nations, until African staunchly stand against western and European interventionist policies in Africa. All the solitary efforts of many African nations will be frustrated.
Look at it this way, most sanctions on many African countries would have been futile if the neighboring African nations had not complied with the western dictates, the overthrow of many revolutionary leaders in Africa could not have been possible if the neighboring African nations has not provided bases (Tanzania, Djibouti,Ethiopia etc),troops and training grounds,some are used to channel weapons to destabilize and offending nation. The painful reality is that in those nations the masses themselves are against those imperialistic policies which they presidents use them to implement yet they were ignored and in most cases brutally repressed.
African leaders fear the imperialist west more than its own people and that is what we need to change.

Until Africans can hold down Africa for Africans and take control of Africa into their hands no unity would ever be achieved and with no Unity African would never move forward.

The most painful argument of my life was a debate between 3 americans i met at the airport in Shanghai about Iraq back in 2003. I found out that Americans can be really dumb, most of them don't know where Egypt is on the Map.

One shouted on my face, "Egyptians are in the middle east they are Arabs!!!" and to that same guy Africa is a country.

igbo2011: Based n my research the only Afrocentric people who came from Ivyleagues are Emeka Ojukwu, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Kwame Nkrumah and Chinweiu Ibekwe. Are there any more than that?

Each and every name above fought tooth and nail against what they perceive as British and western Domination and Exploitation of Africans. what does that say if not that they saw the future.

igbo2011: Didn't Nigeria go into Liberia and Seirra Leone as well?

Nigeria went into Liberia to save Liberia from the mess that the western interloping has put them in and they almost succeed until the Abacha died.

I mean this time Nigeria will be putting them in a mess that the west prepared.

Just as Tanzania and Ethiopia has always been used by the west for regime change and destabilization, Nigeria will be the new cool puppet on the block.

abubaka101: Well, a lot of people have already been saying that the Nobel Peace Prize is now in jeopardy.
But wait a minute, a man who has been blocking a lot of UN Security Council resolution on Syria, with help from China, is being nominated for such prestigious award?
Is Syria the only country witnessing conflict? So why should people claim he is "actively" promoting the "settlement of all conflicts arising on the planet?" And besides the Syria situation may never have a political resolution as agitated by China and Syria.

To be honest, in a more truly global perspective, France's Francois Hollande should have a shot at this award. Why? The reason is simple, deadly conflicts involving the use of arms, can never be resolved by signing agreements, at least in most cases. Plus the fact that most global conflicts in recent years are in one way or another tied to terrorism. Hence they should be tackled with force.
And only Hollande has been "actively" trying to settle all "global" conflicts since he took over in France in 2012. We all know how the Mali crises are being handled, how France led the way in January, how Nigeria followed in February. Even at the UN, he gave a speech that covered global events, not just Syria.
Correct me if am wrong. And since this is the foreign affairs section, fellow diplomats, share your views responsibly.

Are you really on this same world as i ?

Underground: As much as I support pro-black/panafrican ideals & rhetoric, ...........................

My thoughts exactly, but it has to start from the mind, trying it any other way will have the main actor cut off from its roots, there are many examples all over Africa to call from. Any physical move will incur the wrath of the Overlords because the people you are trying to save are to ignorant and will turn against you.
If they can't turn then against you because you belong to a particular religion, they will because you belong to a particular tribe and if that does not work, they will raise hell on you and sanction or bomb you out on some policies which are opposed to the standards and ideology you wish to instill on the masses.
I don't think it is far fetched to say a nation of 160 million could be sanctioned because of 10 or so homosexuals, it is not even crazy to be bombed for that; killing more than 2000 with protecting just 5 people as the excuse. As you can see our people never think for themselves and are like robots regurgitating the western feeds and any of those scenarios i described above is reasonable to them as long as the west says so.

@Horus

Well said.

panafrican: In less than 3 years, you will see he will be overthrown for daring.

You will be surprised it being done with Nigerian Soldiers, or the support of Nigerian Government.
Just like Goodluck Jonathan Condemned Qaddafi even before other African nation could wrap their heads around the western military intrusion into the continent.

Horus: I think that fishs in Africa are safer than imported fishs from China where waters are more poluted

You can't imagine how the seas and rivers are polluted in china, most are just darkish green slugs that pass as rivers, others are just black.

igbo2011: Would you rather have Kenyatta or Odinga? Odinga is a puppet to the west.

We would leave Kenyatta to prove himself, the west taunting him with ICC and other pressures might push him the people's way. However , one has seen several occasions where such leaders outdo their predecessors in order to get in the good books of the west.

So let's watch and see how the whole things turns out.

all4naija: Whether you like it or not Al Assad is a killer and most go? Nobody wants a leader who uses Sarin gas on his own people. That is a crime against humanity which he must be made to pay for at the ICC.

Sorry you are doing a bad Job. [size=18pt]all4naija[/size] [size=14pt]is a paid mis-informant, his actual work is to hang out on nairaland 24/7 and try to deceive people into accepting destructive Imperialistic Neo-liberal polices. People should Ignore him.[/size]

panafrican: Why would the US do that? stop this rubbish.

It is very simple and the intentions are clear. They want to perpetuate the involvement of the Kenyan forces in Somalia and at the moment it is working, that is all they need, a terrorist act that would be given wide media coverage and international criticism.
I just heard this morning that since the ICC has been threatening Kenyatta that he threatened to pull out of Somalia, now he got his hands tied.

The Present enemy of Africans culture and religion are the Pentecostals, whom has exploited the bad leadership in Africa and the hardship that follows to make millions out of people, they castigate anything African, they try to speak foreign accent, they force people to change their traditional names and take up names like Edwards, Moses,David etc.

They alienate people from their family, making sure that you can not get assistance for any close relatives, they tell you it is your father, mother, brother or sister that is making you not to progress. They tell you to stop going to age grade meetings, some even will go as far to tell you to stop going back to your village entirely.
Those victims of theirs are left in a perpetual state of paranoia with no source of assistance except the bloody pastor since he or she has alienated almost everybody close to them. The only new family they have are church friends who are also in the same scam as they are.

It is quite a shame really.

Because the White man said so.

why do we look down on our traditional attires ?

Because the white man does so.

why do most of us claim not to speak our mother tongues and fake some foreign accents ?

Because the white man told us that everything we have is evil and destructive.

igbo2011: If more African leaders were like him what do you think would happen to Africa?

Mugabe is an Unpredictable man. so i can not say for sure what may or may not happen.

What i know for sure is that if such were to be the case Africans would be more proud and respected than we were at the moment.

igbo2011: Uhuru Kenyatta i a puppet? Can I have details of this

Not Minding his utterances, he actually dines with those banking devils that his father vehemently opposed, The economic policies implemented on Kenya are 80% World bank Cocktails, his foreign policy towards his neighbors and the members of the African Union has been known to tilt towards western interests, that’s why many leaders like Mugabe does not take his Non-aligned utterances serious at all.

A specific action worth mentioning was when the west in the push for Somalian resources has failed to impose a puppet regime on the Somalian people; they sent Ethiopia which is probably the Wests biggest puppet nation on Africa and not surprisingly The main administrative capital of the African Union, Ethiopia also failed after three years of bloody war with the Somalian backed Al shaabab. Ethiopia pulled out, Somalia was getting back to normal, ports were opened and schools were rebuilt, deals were planned to sell resources to build infrastructures and provide public services and it seemed for a while that the west has lost for the second time,
What happened next? Kenya was assigned to invade Somalia without a single verifiable attack or threat from the Somalian side. The west sent billions of dollars worth of weapons to Kenya and gave them Intel to destabilized Somalia. The Kenyans totally destroyed the peace and the normalcy that Somalia enjoyed for almost 18 months. More than 2 million Somalis Kenyans and Kenyans alike thought he will reverse these polices but instead he expanded them and as an outraged kenyan Official said “made it more secretive” , there are still bases where US forces train reactionaries in Kenya and then send them to fight Al-shabbab.

Even though Kenyans were openly against the invasion the Puppet in the name of Uhuru Kenyatta ignored the masses (reminds me of Samuel Doe) and heeded the western horn and still kept the Kenyan Forces there.

Almost all over the world his move was described as the best example of a Dumb puppet nation under the leash of the USA.

You can read further popular news media and analyst sites to see how the October 16 2011 invasion of Somalia.
The retaliatory attacks like the Westgate Mall incident were predicted as far back as then but a puppet just like GEJ does not really care about the people.

What's Wrong With Kenya's Invasion of Somalia
http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2011/10/whats-wrong-with-kenyas-invasion-of-somalia/247517/

You can just make a Google search for “ Kenya Invades Somalia” and then read to your hearts content, even pro-western news media has a mocking undertone to their writings.

Mugabe will always be my Hero, he is the only Black African President that took the Devil by the Horns and flung him out of his country. He did what other nations feared to do. Give back to Zimbabweans what rightly belongs to them.

nagoma: 4. The mentioning of "message to the world" and specifically naming the American and the French President and British Queen were calculated - perhaps to justify NATO air strike.( Similar to scenario to WMD in Iraq and chemical weapons in Syria).

This is the point of the whole CIA Operation known to us as Boko Haram.

I wonder what Mr Hersh would have said if he knew about Nigeria's puppet media, Ultra Capitalism has killed everything good about this world, when everything is all about money the concept gets lost. A good read though i don't believe his solution can ever be applied.

all4naija: Only in your terrorist agenda I seem to be a troll. You have forgotten how you have been supporting tyranny all along in this forum. You will be found out soon. When you do you will say I warned you not to support evils against humanity. Keep aiding your dictator Al Assad for using chemical weapon on the innocent citizens and willing to stay in power forever.

I know your bandwagon will like this your erring comment! That is for such they can reason on their own than taking side.

You are misguided, my friend!

@CAMEROONPRIDE & mondi_cheeks

Look at what both of you have turned this thread into.

LausDeo: This is the fact. And also that these massacres are being carried out mostly by Africans. We can't keep blaming America for our problems. Some have even said that the CIA is funding boko haram. The fact remains, we are the ones carrying out the killings. Why do we have to keep letting them use us? (that is if the accusations are true)

At this point in time, after watching very closely how the Boko Haram game pans out, i have concluded that the CIA and the Mossad took an insignificant group, exponentially radicalized it, funded them, trained them and were now preparing them as the main tool for the predicted division of Nigeria.

cap28: Stop getting involved in discussions that you do not understand, you are out of your depth as usual.

Please you all should know that All4naija is a paid troll, this is actually his job, to misinform people and promote Imperialist neo-liberal views.
People should learn to ignore his posts and maybe use his posts as a guide to what our enemies wants us to believe.

USA will finally succeed in destroying this entity called Nigeria, My only pain is that Nigerians are too ignorant to see the truth.

Superego: [size=16pt]Boko Haram: Fake Audio, No Video Confirms Shekau Is Dead[/size]

https://newsrescue.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/shekau-sick2.jpg

Sept. 26, 2013

NewsRescue- Yesterday NewsRescue dared any media to substantiate their fake and dangerous claims that Abubakar Shekau, the dead leader of Boko Haram was still alive.

Boko Haram: Shekau Is Dead! Show Us “I Am Alive” Authentic Video — NewsRescue: http://newsrescue.com/boko-haram-shekau-is-dead-show-us-i-am-alive-authentic-video-newsrescue/#ixzz2g3qmx4A5

Highly suspiciously, shortly after Apo believed extrajudicial killings in Abuja, and the week US congress discusses Boko Haram, DailyTrust, followed by BBC Hausa, and then other news blogs like SaharaReporters and AllAfrica claimed there was a new video in which Shekau said he was alive and claimed responsibility for recent killings in Munguno and Benisheik.

No video was posted to support this preposterous claim that even BBC world recirculated.

DailyTrust described the video they presented–without showing even a single still image–as showing Shekau in army fatigue with similar dressed commandos around him in the forest.

It is 24 hours later and no such evidence has been presented by any media.

SaharaReporters published a very laughable audio single image youtube with an old image of Shekau that was meant to represent the newest video.

This audio was a highly pathetic attempt at representing Shekau’s ghost. Firstly there is no video, as was earlier claimed.

Secondly, the audio voice was not that of Shekau, our experienced voice analysts and not so experienced voice analysts all agreed the voice had much higher pitches and greater youth and trepidation than Shekau typically has. There is a 100% confirmation that the audio is a fraud, possibly by members who are afraid of losing position to the new crazy wannabe leaders.

This fake video claim could also be a more sinister agenda by international or national government agencies to foster trouble in Nigeria and Africa. BBC and even Reuters rebroadcasting such an obviously fake terror propaganda claim supports the second view, that elements are unhappy with Nigeria's military and civilian JTF success against Boko Haram bandits.

A report we published yesterday of the impossible, dozens of US Armored trucks and other high tech military equipment being 'stolen' from NATO and US run Libya, sends chills down Nigerians spines, of what sinister plans people have for terrorizing and destabilizing Africa.

NewsRescue analysts yesterday presented that Shekau was dead or totally disposed. The recent cheap random killings were affirmation of his death and a tussle among the remaining defeated terrorists, each trying to show he is more bloody so as to take Shekau's spot. This is why recent Mosque and road killings have been of cheap standards, but attempts at worthless massacring. This is just to make other members fear the individual striving to become the feared leader who gets the most bounty from these bandits.

NewsRescue still challenges any media to substantiate their junk and unprofessional journalistic claims that Shekau is alive, with a veritable video.

Liars!! It is really sad how gullible Nigerians are.

Whenever i read such writings like many others in www.globalresearch.ca I always shake my head and I find myself muttering “If only Obama was the real policy maker”. You see I and many others do believe that Obama is only a stooge, he only does what he is told to do and can not do more or less than that. People looking up to him to be sensible is like expecting a block of stone to carve itself into a mermaid which would never happen.

I was in Chicago last year for my nephew’s wedding, he being a serious critic of US foreign policies later took us around, the rate of poverty and misery I saw in USA was soo alarming that I start to see that somehow we are better than these people, we don’t have that number of homeless people, we don’t have that number of seriously hungry families and destitute people. Even with the social care and all we are still better than these guys.
However that is not the point, my confusion lies in the that if there is so much decay in the American society and soo much poverty how come is the nation and the government still spending billions on wars which are far away and pose no real threat to the American people?
Such thoughts would make anyone conclude that the American government is not really the government for Americans and the American president is not really the president of America.
