Igbofam: The ferocity of those bombings is on full display here and it is hard to see how any of the more than 60,000 of the town's residents could return anytime soon. Most buildings are either destroyed or damaged beyond repair. |
boyfrank:Ukraine is not Germany and Japan. Germany and Japan were highly industrialized, educated and rich before the war. So re-building their economy and infrastructure was relatively easy. Ukraine was highly corrupt and struggling economically before the war. It would be difficult rebuilding after the war, even with foreign aid. |
morikee:The Russians don't have enough troops to hold the whole country. They definitely don't have the numbers to hold villages and towns. They are only after the major cities like Kiev and Lviv. They just want to destroy the town's and villages and then move on. |
donjahsy:How can he pretent IPOB does not exist when they ground the state every Monday? How can Soludo pretend IPOB does not exist when civil servants under him cannot perform their duties every Monday? How can he pretend that they don't exist when school children are unable to go to school every Monday? You want Soludo to behave like the proverbial ostrich and hide his head in the sand pretending there is no trouble. A governor who really wants to develop his state and his people will never allow that "sit at home nonsense ". If that nonsense persists for more than 3 years, Anambra state would become as terrible as Northern States economically and educationally, and productive youths will start migrating out of the state. |
Ojiofor:Imagine. When IPOB is designated a terrorist organisation, you guys kick and scream "we are a peaceful organisation that only wants a referendum". But here you guys are supporting the group terrorising and threatening a governor. The argument of the OP is that because IPOB is capable using violence to terrorize anambra people into sitting at home, the governor should let them be. Don't compare Soludo with Uzodinma. Uzodinma is an illegitimate governor and does not have the support of the Imo people. Soludo on the other hand was validly elected and is hugely popular. If IPOB goes against Soludo, Anambra people will go against IPOB. |
imran90:Parents feed me for ever? How did you arrive at than conjecture? Do you know how many mouths I feed, both family and staff. Even my mum is under my roof. Anyway you sound like a kid who is looking for easy life. I hope you are not into yahoo. People that oppose the government in China, Russia, Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and in many other countries would probably be 12 feet under. So the country is a sinking ship and so you jump into another ship, even though the crew and passengers of the new ship says they don't want you in their ship. What happens if that ship also start to sink, you jump into another ship. That was also how the Jews for most of their history were migrating from country to country until they realised they are not wanted anywhere else and so decided to go back home and fight to reclaim and develop their land. Don't worry when you run away from your lands, Fulani herdsmen would gladly take over and claim the lands. |
CAPSLOCKED:Gbam. The bible God is identical to President Putin - narcissistic, dictatorial and incompetent. They both launch a war they cannot win. They both employ lies, fables and propaganda and then threats to ensure their followers and supporters fall in line. The bible Satan is like President Zelensky,he wants total freedom and democracy for his followers. |
Jaqenhghar:How many Americans, Austrailians, Norwegians, Japanese, Afghans, Iraqis, etc., migrate to other countries purely for economic reasons. Then when you all migrate, who do you leave your fatherland for - Fulani people? And you people will be complaining Fulanis are taking over your lands. Most people of the world fight and go through hardship to protect their lands. We on the other run away at the slightest signs of discomfort or trouble. Those countries you are running to went through much worse situations while developing their lands. As they say Rome was not built in a day. But our people just like our women want "ready made", we are not ready to go through the pains of developing our lands or nations. |
somehow:For how long will your friend adjust to the sanctions. If the war stretches up to 6 months and the sanctions are not relaxed, the Russian economy will be in tatters. Add to that the social unrests that will engulf the country. People are quiet now because they are afraid of Putin. When hunger sets in, the fear of Putin will not hold the people back. I will not want to be in Russia when the riots starts. |
MideMrPossible:In the words of Bother Shaggi "e shock you eh". You enter country in the midst of a full blown war, a country under economic strangulation by the West and a country on the verge of a confrontation with NATO, which will probable go nuclear. Abeg buy a geiger counter and locate all the underground nuclear shelters as soon as possible. |
Originalsly:I agree that the Afghans should fight for themselves. If they don't want the Taliban, then the onus is on them to fight the Taliban. The west can only offer support. With amount of support the West gave the country for decades, they still refused to fight the Taliban. @ topic .... almost worldwide... all schools were shut down indefinitely for months. Was that a problem? Then why is there a problem if Taliban shut down parts of girls ' s schools indefinitely? Those against show that you're not brainwashed... explain ... not give the that's different zombie reply.Schools were shut down for a reason - to curtain the spread of a pandemic. Schools are usually shut in times of crisis like war, pandemic, social unrest, natural disaster, etc. Why is the taliban shutting down schools and for only girls? Are women that inferior that they don't deserve an education? I see nothing wrong in their decision.You must not see nothing wrong with Boko Haram (Western Education is forbidden) also. If so, I hope you did not go to school to be able to write such good English. |
MYND44issaSMOKER:No one can liberate you but you yourself. Africans still need to learn that hard lesson that only you can liberate yourself. The Afghans have to wake up and liberate themselves and stop waiting for the west to liberate them. The Ukrainians have learnt this hard lesson and are fighting viciously to liberate themselves. |
janedonez:They are not listed as endangered yet, but their numbers are getting critically low and most countries have banned trading in donkeys. See this aljazeera report. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOCIgG-MRT0 |
janedonez:You guys are just getting overly emotional. The FG along with most countries of the world are banning or discouraging the killing and trading of donkeys. I know the law on the ban Killing and trading of donkeys had passed through first and second reading, but I am not sure it had been made law yet. Bill to prohibit killing, export of donkey passes second readingDonkeys that used to be a common feature in nigeria and West Africa is becoming an endangered species. That's how we killed of elephants from West Africa due to Ivory trade. Even though I sympathize with the guy whose goods were seized by customs. I am somehow appalled that a whole truckload of donkeys (a very non aggressive animal that had helped man to carry load for centuries)were being slaughtered in such numbers for profit. The guy did not do his due diligence before embarking on the business on such a scale. Forget the papers he obtained. In Nigeria you could get any paper you want for the right amount. The ministry guys are only after bribe. People had been arrested for trading just a couple of donkeys, and this guy was caught with a truckload. I am sure he was not aware that trading in donkeys in Nigeria is controversial, else he would not have done strong head and would have negotiated with the custom officers (bribe). I really doubt the guy can win this. The government officials that gave him the papers would deny the papers were genuine when they get to court, as the whole thing looks bad. If NYSC could deny Kemi Adeosun's discharge certificate, what is a few ministry papers. |
mekkha19:Read what I wrote before your comment. He engaged in an illegal business . It's like telling someone caught with 200 million naira worth of marijuana to Tag NCS, Ministry of Finance, Mike Ozekhome, Femi Falana and the likes. |
Munzy14:It's not every time you need to play the victim card. Trade in donkey meat is prohibited in Nigeria. Trading, eating of donkey illegal – FGThe OP should have done his due diligence before embarking on the business on such a massive scale. If he is not careful he will not only lose his goods but also lose his freedom as he could be arrested and prosecuted.

FERNANDEZISBACK:With close to 4 million refugees in Europe and another 6 million displaced from their homes and then with the destruction of cities and infrastructures that took decades if not centuries to build and you still insist Ukraine has not gone down? I don't know why some of you are anarchists that feed on human misery and pain. |
Igbofam:You still go not get me. Stable and reliable electricity is very expensive. Ask countries that have stable power how much they pay per KWh. Now how will nigeria, a country with minimum wage of N18,000 where more than 60% of the population is said to live on 1$ per day effort to pay N100/KWh? We need to increase peoples earning power to be able to afford electricity before we can start talking about development. |
Igbofam:I disagree with tinubu. Even though he is right that electricity is crucial for economic development, it is not the most important. The most important impediment for national development is manpower. By manpower I mean practical education that provides the necessary knowledge and skills for economic activities and production. Our universities and polythechnics chunning out paper graduates with no practical or employable skills cannot develop a nation. Even if the government generates 1000Gw of electricity, they will only use it to DSTV, YouTube and for play. Besides generating, transmitting and distributing electricity is very expensive and most Nigerians cannot afford to pay the right price for electricity and hence many people, especially businesses bypass despite electricity still being subsidized by government. With adequate sound technical education and skill, Nigerians in collaboration with government can find other power sources - Gas, solar, wind, hydro, etc. An innovative government can power gas that is being wasted to our homes and offices for us to use ti generate out own electricity. There are many solutions to power, we just need innovative graduates and technicians. |
yanabasee:Nothing more to add. |
loswhite:Sending weapons can't stop the war, it will only prolong and expand the war. The US and the rest of Europe should be acting as a mediator to try and bring Putin and Zelensky to the negotiating table. The world cannot afford a prolonged war in Europe. Only the US would gain from a disabilized Europe. |
Mickykarim:It's not that people are supporting Russian aggression, the fact is that people don't want to be dragged into a war between brothers. Let them resolve their problems themselves. Italy and the rest of Europe are yet to recover from covid induced economic recession, adding war to it would completely destroy the economy. US that is fuelling the war by supplying weapons is thousands of miles away, the war will never affect them except it goes nuclear. Italy and Spain is just a few hundred miles away, so they would be directly be affected by the war if it expands. Millions of refugees alone would stretch the economy. If them fight for a while, when dem tire of the consequences, dem go begin negotiate. Dem go look for who go separate dem. Na so fight between neighbours be. |
AleAirHub:How? You bypass? |
Rubyjade:No matter how you cut it, you cannot buy 2 batteries + 2.5kva inverter + solar panels (4 - 8 nos. 250kw panels) for N480k. And we have not even added cost of installation. Two good 200ah deep cycle inverters alone would cost close to N480k |
Rubyjade:The guy I was responding to did not include solar panels. You can not buy 2 batteries + 2.5kva inverter + solar panels (4 - 8 nos. 250kw panels) for N480k |
Rubyjade:But the 2 batteries will not charge themselves, you will still pay for the electricity you use and the one to charge the batteries. |
malakaimoscondo:Zelensky changed the country's constitution to make NATO membership a must. On 21 February 2019, the Constitution of Ukraine was amended, the norms on the strategic course of Ukraine for membership in the European Union and NATO are enshrined in the preamble of the Basic Law, three articles and transitional provisions. |
brandsoncharlie:By dragging countries with no stake stake in the conflict into the war? What will the US or even UK gain by fighting a war with Russia on behalf of Ukraine? |
murphyung:This case would be difficult to prove in a law court. No police report and no medical report. A torn cloth does not prove anything. The man can as well claim he paid her the N3000 for consensual sex after negotiations. As per the case of the murder of Oluwabamise Ayankole, there would be evidence all over the bus. There would be DNA evidence and finger print evidence. There would even be blood evidence. The blood stains from the cutting of the organ would still be in the bus. (Even if it was cleaned, it can still be visible in uv light after treatment with luminol. If Nigerian police are actually trained to investigate and detect crime, instead of protecting politicians and collecting bribe, this would be a very easy case. |
brandsoncharlie:So because a stranger came and took possession of what belongs to me, I should endanger the whole city? If a stranger came to my house or land and took possession of what belongs to me,I fight back using all means at my disposal. And if I cannot fight, I will beg people who knows the stranger to help me talk and negotiate with the stranger. But if the stranger is my brother with whom we used to live in the same house and speak the same language, I will speak directly to him to negotiate with him. |
DeepSight:I tried reading the article but I am too tired to respond. Had a very hectic day. Just got home and need to eat and rest. Might respond to the article when feel better. |
Nfora:I agree that the constitution guarantees the tenor of elective officials, in the same vain the constitution guarantees the right of all Nigerians over a certain age to contest for any elective office. Furthermore the constitution forbids any sort discrimination. You might as well say single women are forbidden from contesting in party primaries unless they get married |
