If you really look at it, some of these unwholesome behaviour of Chinese employers, are extensions of how their government functions. They practice communism sure, but it's complete autocracy. Dissent and die!

So when they come here and behave like monsters, they are simply practising what their government does.

Opulence amidst abject poverty.

A long black seat ... no demarcation between the rider and passenger's seat.

Much stronger and costs more that's why easterns don't use it for okada stuff. 2 bajaj will buy 3 ogbawa cycles with some change to register the 3 cycles

How much does a Bajaj motorcycle cost?

He cant even spell Anambra correctly.

LOL. And his slogan is Attention To Detail 2017.

Israeljones:
This guy is filled with all talks and talks alone....
If hes trully pained and determined he wants this biafra of a thing he should stop talking and act instead of abusing and throwing jabs at people who never really had his time....
He should act... He should go to Abuja himself and demand for referendum and demand his illusion biafra from Osibanjo instead of making himself a mere celebrity..

We are tired of him sounding like lion but acting like timid rat...

He's not timid my man.

If you've seen him in action, you'll agree with me that he's not timid.

Conner44:
Reminds me of that Eminem & Dido's song "STAN"

Yeah.

Though no bridge this time.

One of them (don't know which) came for our office 2016 EOY party. She was looking far different from what's in the pics attached here.

Caveat emptor!

Robbers struck again this afternoon around 12pm. Robbed my friend who is a liquor wholesaler/fruits exporter at Nsude.

Then another group waylaid vehicles at the bad spot on the express from Ugwu Onyeama to 9th Mile. Around 1pm.

Pointless and senseless waste of lives over yeye values.

Have you seen John Wick: Chapter 2?

Better come and collect him. We freely and willingly donate him to you.

Please check the other article where FFK replied Rochas....

Able-bodied Jews are queuing up to lick the sweat and the salt clean off FFK's balls there

For someone who could think of no other name to assign to himself, other than that of a por.n actor, do you think your opinion matters?

You can't deceive me. I know the picture of a baby hippopotamus when I see one. You think you can just go to any zoo, snap pics of animals having their peaceful post-coital nap and come here to deceive me?

Thought you said 5 things? Why am I just seeing 2?

Another thing she can't tell you, is the actual figure of her total body count. Whatever she tells you, just calculate the square root.

i wish the dismissed police men a very retched life after dismissal. may the tears they have made others to cry never depart from their lives... me dancing after reading this news...

They committed the crime together, got dismissed likewise.

They'll just form a gang of armed robbers.

Your husband is not alone. I'm more addicted than him. I don't think there's a solution other than get a non browsing phone. Deep down I know I'm addicted to phone but planning to shut down and deactivate all by September first. Discipline

I uninstalled Facebook on my device since May, with the intention of re-logging in August, but I changed my mind and have extended it to 2018. I've never regretted the decision. I'm considering uninstalling WhatsApp also. Would do that very soon.

If not for mobile banking, Google and Wiki, I would have stopped using a smartphone. I'm also working towards that.

Smartphone addiction is real. We just refuse to admit the guilt.

The contents of the circular differs from this thread topic.

Since the Yoruba's have rejected her, we kindly donate her to the IBO's. I heard her biological parent are from Mbaise, while her paternal grandfather is from Ohafia, and her maternal grandmother is from Nnewi. IBO's we dash una kemi, we no want again. . .

Ermmm...On behalf of all Mba5 indigenes, we deeply appreciate your kind offer but regret to inform you that we wish to decline acceptance. You see, our oracle has warned us that your gift is nothing but a Trojan horse.

Yes we do accommodate mental patients but not of the Grade 5 variety. Facilities for handling such individuals are still under construction as we speak.

We believe our Niger-Delta cousins are very much familiar with these cases and would gladly appreciate her presence in their midst and on that note, we hand her over to them.

Truth be told, I don't see much wrongdoing in K Olunloyo's action. I even got to know that the baby might be suffering a form of diabetes, through Olunloyo's post. Made me more conscious about the condition.

Give him 5% of the diesel jare

By the way, if ur conversant with telecoms will know about the term diesel transfer.. he might not actually be stealing it..

Indeed. Diesel transfer over the fence cos the site has no gate abi?

But the baby big sha. In 'a biggie nwa' kinda way.

OKDnigeria:
Removing Magu will not kill the cases. The next EFCC chair will continue from where Magu stopped. In fact, keeping Magu there as acting chairman man has keeping things slow in EFCC. Check it naa, and since he was rejected by the Senate, he has been so dull. What has he done since that time? Nothing. If the presidency had replaced with another competent hand (there are many other people who can do the job, Magu is not the only one), we would have moved past this stage since. Why insist on Magu if not for superiority contest?

I beg to differ sir.

We all saw what became of the EFCC after Nuhu Ribadu was unceremoniously removed and replaced with Farida Waziri and Ibrahim Lamorde. Even the replacements themselves were slammed with corruption cases after their exit.

Magu is currently the chair that to an extent, is restoring the confidence which had been hitherto lost after Ribadu's removal.

Before opening the thread, I swore that even though it was ABU, the actual winner would be somebody from the South.

And I wasn't wrong.

Some couple of hours ago I saw an update on My Facebook news feed about an
observation that all gtbanks across the federations do not have gate unlike other
banks.

I almost begged to disagree, but after ruminating and brooding over all the 5
GTBANKS I know within my location here in my city where I live, I realized that
the FB poster is right going by my own observation with all the bank branches
I know in my location.

Here is the drill!

Is it also true that all GTBANKS in all the branches in your location do not have gate?

If yes or no, what could be responsible.

Lets hear from you

GTB Umuahia has 2 gates.

I hear you. I guess you failed to read the portion where it was stated that up to 50% of the global population display asymptomatic infection?

Thank you for your kind words sir.

In terms of US policy since the July 1944 when Bretton Woods was formed, US foreign policy has changed a fair bit: when the IMF/World Bank were formed, the Roosevelt administration through the US Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, forced the US$ through as the world reserve currency due to being the only country (out of the UK, France, German etc.) which was running a current account surplus (more exports than imports), and this made them replace the UK as the pre-eminent global powerhouse which they are arguably remain, even up to the present day. The dollar and other western currencies (£ etc.) at the time were then pegged to the gold standard, because money as we know it is what is known as 'fiat currency' and is intrinsically worthless (only has value due to the laws of the land).

In 1971 the gold standard was abandoned due to it being a failure, and the US currency was freely-floated so to allow it be dictated by market forces (Supply and demand). This precipitated the 1973 crisis which forced the likes of the US and UK to expand their money supplies in order to increase their reserves, which was tantamount to a devaluation.

Pursuant to the above, the US changed its foreign policy in a number of ways such as changing the composition of NATO, seeking alternative renewable energy (including partnerships with countries), sponsoring wahabism in Saudi Arabia etc. Furthermore, the likes of the UK who traditionally supported Israel in military terms, distanced themselves from Israel so as to repair relations with the Arab nations.

The above are just some of the examples in the way in which the US has changed its foreign policy in order to adapt to exogenous/uncontrollable occurrences globally. The reason why the US sponsored wahabism is because they feared that Saudi Arabia and the other Arab nations would become a military powerhouse and pose a strong threat to the US like Russia did. Even from the late 1940s, the US had been engaged in dialogue with the UK regarding its then colony, British Nigeria, which they anticipated would soon receive independence, and the consequence of this was Nigeria's potential to become a potential military threat like Russia, due to Nigeria's unabated population growth and substantial uranium endowment (same resources the US used to bomb Japan during WWII).

Many places globally have been affected by US foreign policy to curtail their power/clip their wings such as Iran, Saudi, Nigeria, the entire Maghreb/North African Arab region, Somalia etc. What do these countries have in common? They're either very Islamically conservative, or partially in the case of Northern Nigeria. This is no coincidence, but is the result of US/Western foreign policy.

Forgive the plenty details above, but the reason I shared them was to buttress my assertion: the US alter foreign policy at will, as can be seen when they stopped purchasing oil from us under the GEJ administration and started to refine their own unhealthy crude oil (shale). The reason I chose those words "retribution/retaliation etc" is because Nigeria's participation in the 1973 events was what the US considered 'subversive' actions (part of "hegemonic stability theory" which is that all developing countries should be subordinate to the US, feel free to look into it) and they took offence to Nigeria and the Arab States beating them at their 'own' game.

In other words, the US, knowing that they were at the epicentre of creating the Bretton Woods institutions, were astounded that developing countries could force them to devalue their currency. By forcing Nigeria to devalue their's in 1986, the significance was that this affected the economy in terms of inflation, delayed foreign direct/portfolio investment (especially under incompetent military rule), and only exacerbated pre-existing economic issues.

The US stands to gain nothing from Nigeria being economically buoyant and socially functional as it is considered a threat to their eminent position. Sure, they'll say all of the right and encouraging things, but when all is said and done, in stealth they do not want Nigerian progress.

Annullment of the 1993 elections were partly down to MKO nearly negotiating reparations for slavery and colonial exploits, Murtala Muhammad's death was not carried out by the lone wolf Dimka as people have been led to believe, Ken Saro Wiwa was executed due to Shell's vested interests, and there are many more examples I can list, but it is clear that US foreign policy was ever-present in all of the above events and many others.

It would be a mistake to underestimate US foreign policy.

In closing, there is a mountain of academic journals and de-classified government papers that will substantiate some, if not all of the above content.

CC Zehner

Very expository piece you wrote.

By extension, I guess it'd be safe to infer that the US would have wanted Buhari to win the election and not Jonathan right?
