Yawwnnnn. The world has heard those boastful words before. Pride comes before a fall.
In the case of the united states, they can walk the talk.
They walked the talk in WW2 and destroyed the imperial Empire of japan which was a superpower in its own right.
They crippled the soviet union, a mighty nuclear superpower too.
No other superpower in history has that achievement.
A round of applause for the yanks.

Actually, my money is on the US. Military might is an illusion. Many powers existed before the USA.They all came crashing down despite their military superiority. I needed, BECAUSE OF their military superiority. One lesson of history is that military dominance ALWAYS leads the dominant nation to over stretch...over reach...over extend... TILL THEY BREAK and come crashing down. The US today, typifies such calamitous decline...Watch and see.
Rome the greatsest superpower the world has ever known(before america took their title) collapsed due to corruption and the eventual invasion of the germanic tribes who were only successful because rome had become weakened from the inside thanks to in-fighting and corruption.
America does not suffer from that affliction. She is still very efficient in dealing with corruption and waste. The US is still very good at prioritizing.
The best minds in the world still go to the US and hereby perpetuating her technological and social dominance for centuries to come. She still has the petro-dollar as the most efficient means of international transaction with no credible rival currency in sight.
And there is no force on earth that would dare invade the united states. Not with the threat of a complete nuclear annihilation as the automatic response.
Rome did not have the nuclear deterrence america has.

Exactly. Nigeria still has a lot of stage to pass before she'd be close to such dream he's describing. Is it our religious weaknesses? Our Tribal differences? Our educational and intellectual deficiency?
It is not even possible.
Unless Nigeria want to annex the whole of west africa to create enough geographical assets to command and wield that kind of influence.

The issue is not about being frustrated.

All great powers have a united people because they all felt that their countries guarantee have laid down things that enable them to have their religious, political, economic, social etc dreams fulfilled


Nigeria is not such a country and will never be
I already assumed for the sake of argument that Nigeria is progressive and united which we know is a tall dream.
My focus was on the constant realities that will never change even if everybody in Nigeria becomes satisfied at the country.

Are PriceWaterhouseCoopers dreamers also? This is how you will sit there doing nothing. Indians will read those reports which you call 'dreams', and start strategising on how to capitalise on the Nigerian economy. Chinese, Lebanese, same thing. You? Oh it's all a dream.
You are at best a mid-level power like s.korea.
That is if everything works well . Even south korea has the entire world scrambling to invest there.

so what does being a Muslim have to do with the problem on ground. I won't be surprised if those guys aren't Muslims at all.

Don't let us bring religion into evil crime. those that do bad should be punished accordingly.
You no fit read?
The countries with the largest number of child rapes are islamic countries. Figure out the reason why.

Who the hell are you to impose a "ceiling " on Nigerian possibilities?

I did not impose the ceiling.
Existential realities did.
You don't have superpower potential.
Your geographical assets and indeed your wealth is relatively small even for african standards, you will never be allowed to develop Nukes to mark an entrance into superpower status, and the vast majority of your populace are not very progressive given their islamic loyalties. And i am not even considering the fact that other legitimate superpowers would frustrate any potential superpower emergence in africa for obvious reasons.
Now, I am assuming Nigeria is in a state complete unity, zero tribalism, cerebral and functional governance, decent industrial capacity and absolute peace.
The likes of Israel, Pakistan, Turkey, south-korea, malaysia, singapore have never gotten close to being superpowers, Nigeria definitely can't.

undecided Must you bring religion to everything... stop spreading hate!
You are obviously not informed enough to know that paedophilia is steeped in Islam.
How old was muhammed's wife when she was deflowered by him? And that is the role model for the entire muslim world.
I know you are yoruba and unfortunately have an overwhelming muslim indigenous population, but get informed.

pls can i get uniben
computer engineering
but I didn't do further maths in o level
i heard it's compulsory for engineering
248 in Jamb
Why? Engineering in uniben is mathematics galore.
It dosen't matter, i think. As long as you didn't fail it. And i mean getting anything less than a C.
It is better for an engineering student not to attempt Further mathematics in O' levels , than to fail it. It gives your result a bad look to the admission officers.

It's the truth! What ever game plan that will play will still be withing the North-Western alliance. The East has been sent to permanent hibernation which will hold past 2040.

It's the bitter truth if you good with political arithmetic.
[b]Your so-called alliance will fail in the face of untenable political realities.
So you expect the north to jeopardize the entire southern stability including the oil benefits to please the SW ? You are high. The SW is not that valuable and does not offer any advantage that cannot be gotten somewhere else. It was not too long ago, the SW was crying about being marginalized, so cut the Bull-shitt.
Honestly I don't know about 2019. The buhari advantage may be too strong to beat given his cult-like followership in the north and so the SW will most likely and smartly ride on the sai-buhari northern wave till 2023 just like that Northern elder said in Lagos.
But from 2023 after the buhari malaise, Nigerian politics becomes a different ball-game. The PDP will most likely have resolved their issues by then and become a credible opposition.
The APC looking to retain power will want to get new allies to shore up its capital. And the SW as placeholder for the entire south will no longer be politically tenable.
Without the sai-buhari wave to ride on, the SW becomes very exposed and every man for himself.. [/b]

2019 is settled already, we will votes across religious an ethnic lines so 2015 will repeat itself. Same for 2023!

The ethno religious car GEJ played in the last election will go a long way in Nigerian politics. It will easier for Arsenal to win the premier league than for an Eastern or Southerner to get close to power.


The North-Western alliance is informidable.
We will see about that.
Unless History does not replay itself given the unchanging characters of all the players.
Though i am still trying to see how you and your tinubu intend to keep the rest of the south out from federal politics even after the buhari administration is over. cheesy
You are high on cheap weed.

So, in line with your logic, can you now tell us in what manner this Buhari government's policies are lopsided against the East?
And which of his policies has ethnic or religious colouration?
