If there are 0.5m primary school kids who each eat N2k monthly, what does that come up to?

Anyway I'm glad that such foolish socialist policies have been abandoned.
socialist indeed.

But what can we do, Nigeria practises a mixed economy which involves the combination of the various types of economies so the Governor is not out of place in feeding the kids. Can you in anyway differentiate Obamacare from Elrufaichop.
PoliticsRe: Buhari Receives King Of Morrocco In Aso Rock Today by tolor: 8:58pm On Dec 02, 2016
naptu2:
Right to left: Buhari's ADC, the king's Moroccan ADC, the king's Nigerian ADC. (Buhari's ADC wasn't "benched", it's just the angle at which the picture was taken).

In the past we only provided ADCs to visiting heads of state that do not bring their own ADCs, but in recent times that has changed, sometimes creating confusion between the visiting ADC and the ADC provided by the Nigerian Army.


I don't know how many times the two countries have exchanged visits, but the king has been here before. His father, King Hassan II sent him to deliver a letter to President Shagari in 1980.

I suspect that one of the reasons the King is here is to lobby for support on the question of Western Sahara (aka Sahrawi Republic).



(What I'm about to write is taken straight from my memory, so you should cross check to see if there are any errors) Western Sahara was colonised by Spain, but the Spaniards withdrew from the territory in the 1970s. Morocco then invaded the place and claimed it for itself. However, the people of Western Sahara wanted to govern themselves, so they fought a long war of independence with Morocco. The Organisation of African Unity (OAU, now AU) declared that the Western Saharans should be allowed to decide if they want to rule themselves (via a referendum). Morocco left the OAU as a result of this resolution. Since then there has been both a military and propaganda war between the two sides.




Representatives of the Sahrawi Republic recently met President Buhari and the president restated Nigeria's long held view that the people of Sahrawi Republic should be allowed to decide what they want for themselves.
Thanks so much. But do you think it's a wise thing for the President to be lending his voice to various movements like this {Sahrawi/Palestine] knowing that he has has something similar in his own backyard that he has consistently rejected.

I remember that one of the few times that the Soviets and Americans came together during the peak of the cold war was during the Nigeria civil war and the Soviets participation was to send a strong message to the secessionists group within them. Also China in her usual neither-for-nor-against stance stayed away from issues like this because of the Tibetian issue.

@naptu , why did they bench our ADC in the first picture?

what are the functions of the two ADC's of the Moroccan monarch?
How many times have the two countries exchange visits in the past?

What is the importance of this visit?

You need to understand the wider politics involve in the war on terror, Our partners don't want
Eeben even do there military support in terms non lethal aid is small. They critical partners of ours even do we are non aligned state. Our major Arms provider doesn't support us as partners in these war like they do in Syria because we don't have a Big Russian interest like we did during the civil war.
Currently Nigeria non aligned state & refusal to allow AFCOM base n other factors lead to US drone build up in Niamey / Agadez n Chad
i hate it when we africans continue to blame others for our woes. what stops us from having plants that manufacture this toys?

PoliticsRe: Why Obama Never Visited The Most Populous Black Nation On Earth. by tolor: 2:46pm On Nov 12, 2016
it's like going to Edo state and you visit all the Enogies but conspicuously exempt the Oba. That is a very strong message you are sending.

Roosevelt's wife invited some Nigerian chiefs during her husband's presidency.

JFK invited Tafewa Balewa.

Jimmy Carter flew down to Dodan barracks inspite of Americans stance against dictatorship.

Bill Clinton visited Nigeria.

George Bush visited Nigeria.

Now the first African-American president stayed away from Nigeria for eight years even visiting Ghana, Senegal two west African countries and he didn't deem it fit to visit Nigeria.

Recently I've come to equate his beef with Nigeria with that of the Kenyans. I want to see it as a Kenya vs Nigeria thing.


And as for those saying all sorts of shits as Nigeria is corrupt bla bla bla, how about Obama visiting Saudi Arabia that has the worse human rights record. His absence has nothing to do with our problems that why I supported Trump to win because I believe a Clinton's presidency would be an extension of the Obama's administration and it's unfavourable policies towards Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

To hell with Obama.

@naptu I use to think that you are an N.I.A agent on nairaland but after listening your keyboard notes I think Choirmaster fits the description..


the song you played sounds like the song played in a Catholic church for Prayer of the faithful. It goes like this:
when I call on you Lord
Don't reject me Lord
Don't forsake me Lord
But answer my prayer

I don't know if the melody was originally made for this hymn but I know I've come across this melody. It's even used in some vintage nollywood movies you know, those ones that depicts serious suffering and the cast includes Hilda Tokunbo that is always crying and a very dumb Tony Umez who always needs deliverance in his movies and above all the movie will be set in the village,....

Were you happy Dare spent that huge amount of money to bring Kim K?

Did you attend the show? Would you have paid to see Kim K?

A pocket of people celebrated Kim K in Nigeria. But a vast majority thought it was misplaced priority for Dare to spend that money on her. I know many people tweeted about it then. Your point doesn't hold except you can prove more Nigerians endorsed Kim K's coming to Nigeria.
I'm talking of the media frenzy it generated.
PoliticsRe: Federal Government Leaves Out South East In Projects From $29.96B FOREIGN LOAN by tolor: 7:22am On Oct 29, 2016
omenka:
They huff and puff and thrash and curse all day, hoping and praying and advising that the loan request shouldn't be granted by the NASS, yet still turn around to wail we weren't captured in blablabla on THESAME LOAN!!!

Farming season approaches, people ready their seedlings and farmlands while you do nothing but pray it NEVER rains- but then the heavens open and there's a downpour, you start wailing over why it didn't rain in your farmlands!!

Someone tell me- isn't this complete madness??

One of them in response to someone who asked "why isn't the North East captured" said "Abuja represents the North East"!! Now, why can't they see the South East being represented by Calabar in the South South in the same vain??

They always insist there is Nothing like a South South geographical location anywhere and say the places called South South belong to the South East- Now, they separate the two because it promotes their warped victim mentality and supports this volatile propaganda by this useless pro-iPod newspaper read only in their domain.
wtf are you saying? Please let's not allow unnecessary hate becloud our reasoning. Is Taraba not NE, Abuja NC, Kano NW, Lagos SW, Calabar SS.

Now one region is conspicuously absent from this windfall and you see no problem with it because of the tribal bigots from that region when it is a fact that tribal bigotry permeates every nook and cranny of this country. Na wa oo..
Shame.

You guys should cut all these hypocrite bullshyte. White skin, big assets or whatever, Kim K can't try what she did in a place like Saudi Arabia. Why? because of how that society is wired. I wonder why this is so difficult to get.
we are not talking of Saudi, we are talking about Naija and that we celebrated a foreign IndecentStar while shaming a local one.

CelebritiesWhat Is The Difference Between Kim Kardashian And Chidinma Okeke by tolor(op): 11:53pm On Oct 28, 2016
It was in this same Nigeria some few years back that the now famous Kim Kardashian visited Nigeria on a 45 minutes tour that benefited her $500,000, and you just had to see how the creme de la creme of the Nigerian society came out to pay homage to her. You'll be right if you equated the hype to that of the Pope's visit or that of Zuckerberg of Facebook.

And the question that begs to be asked is this. What is the difference between these two women such that one was exalted while the other was vilified.

The answer is simple; that something is fundamentally wrong with Nigerians.

PoliticsRe: America's CIA Set To Cyber-strike Russia As Kremlin Vows To Protect Itself. by tolor: 9:28pm On Oct 15, 2016
Humans, welcome to the new age. This impending war[ Cyber War] will fully usher in the cyber age. This war will see the world and by large the big players engage in a Cyber race and like the nuclear race it will herald the new age of a truly cyber world and the winner will always be the keepers.

Now you do not need to be told that a war chest and a deep one as at that is necessary for any war just as the brains are. A combination of the know-how and a deep pocket will always be an added advantage.

It is at this juncture and a familiar one as at that , would the Americans trump over the Russians. This is why people tip the Chinese and not the Russians in usurping America in their position as world power.
Until Russia understands the effect of a healthy marriage between it's people and government would they be able to understand why they've always have to play runners-up to the Americans.
