NNEWIsuper:
I thought the news had it they were kidnapped in Niger Republic but brought down to Nigeria.. Must they always paint Nigeria black
What difference does where they were kidnapped make? They might as well been kidnapped in Afghanistan and brought into Nigeria. Is Nigeria a warehouse for kidnapped victims?
The fact that Nigeria could be used to hide foreign kidnapped victims is a disgrace to the government and all Nigerians as whole.

If the operation had gone wrong, lots of innocent Nigerians might have been killed and a diplomatic crisis with the US would have done ensued.

You are seeing it from your own way. His leadership is bringing peace all over the world. Obama played love with ISIS trump came and they were wiped out. That is leadership.
What peace has Trump brought and to what part of the world? First Trump policy is MAGA, which means America First, meaning he does not give a fvck about the world. Secondly ISIS was a result of the grave error Republicans commited of invading Iraq unjustly. It gave raise to alquada, which gave rise to ISIS. Obama did the best he could without putting US troops on the ground. His policy of arming and supporting rebels (sometimes Islamic militants ) in Syria, Libya and Iraq had horrible results, but no matter what decision he took, it would be bad, because the US public were not ready to enter another war directly.

Trump encouraging friendly Arab countries to have direct flights and business with Israel is not bringing peace, because they were never at war with each other. The main cause of the middle east conflict is the Palestinian - Israel conflict. And he has done nothing to solve the Palestinian question, in fact he has worsen it.


NATO members are not meeting up to defence spending, trump came and everyone is paying their complete 2% of their gdp. That's leadership.
Blackmailing and insulting your allies is not leadership style. It called bullying.

The military is well funded again, NASA that died under Obama is functioning again. Trump is a leader... He gets things done. This pandemic and Riot are not his responsibility. States have to enforce laws and everything they need trump provides. So you are blaming the wrong person. You could say okay... He is bringing people together in his rallies. Yeah. Riot and protest was encouraged by the media and democrats with their scientists but trump can't hold rallies. Na una sabi
Same old trumpian philosophy - take credit for all successes, but deflect responsibility for all failures. If a world pandemic and nation wide riots are not his responsibility, then what are his responsibility. Did he not blame Obama for not handling the H1N1 pandemic badly? How do you expect individual states to handle a nationwide pandemic or epidemic? Do pandemic respect state borders?

You last statement is just crazy. So because Riot and protest was encouraged by the media and democrats as you claim, it's perfectly justified for Trump to hold superspreader rallies, at the worst period of the pandemic. Then, you mock Biden for not holding crowded rallies.

I am still eager to watch you guys response after Trump lose next week. Will you people go away quietly in shame, will you wail uncontrollable for the next few years or will you guys get violent - physically and verbally, and then suffer mental breakdown.
The next few days would be exciting.

Yeah, funny part is mail-in ballot has never been use to this magnitude they Want to use it. I support the fact that they are doing this because of the corona virus but it comes with problems too and the more they flood the system the more likely a lot of votes will not count. The video I put up yesterday shows a glaring truth. 100 ballots where sent, 3% were lost... If it's 1000 ballot that 3 ballots be comes 30 ballots so you add 30 to your every 1000 ballots you get the point I am making. NPR article I posted here shows a whooping 550k ballots were rejected. We are not talking about the lost ones o.

At the end of the day democrats will be at the receiving end since trump voters vote in person.

In fact trump said something no one noticed. He awk his base to use mailin ballot and then vote in person.

There in person vote will count but if they flood the system with mail... Many votes will get lost, and arrive late because the systems handling transportation as well as processing it will be overwhelmed.

These are problems that may rise
Is shear irresponsibility to ask millions of people to flood voting centres in the middle of a pandemic that has already killed 130,000 people and infections are still rising. A responsible government first world government would promote other forms of voting and reduce in person voting.

My disagreements with Trump is that he is promoting the herd immunity rubbish he has stuck up in his head. He feels that is a better option for the economy, whereby, the economy would not suffer any shutdown. He reasons that if all Americans comes down with covid, those that survive would become immune and those that would die would die. With a fatality rate of about 3 -4%, at least 5 million Americans are expected to die. The problem is that there is not even enough data to support that immunity assumption. We don't know how long immunity lasts.

That's what I have been saying all along isn't it? Both rep and dems are cheating. Instead of state officials to make sure they make the system hard to cheat.. They are making it easy for cheating to occur. My argument all along. For some reason some people think everything I say is all about trump.
There is no evidence the democrats as a party is cheating or has cheated. There is at least one evidence that Republicans have cleated in an election, and the elections has to be cancelled and redone as a result. Florida in the Bush - Gorebridge presidential elections still comes to mind.
The area where you are wrong is that the problem with mail in voting is not a state problem, it a federally induced problem. This is because the problem is mainly with the efficiency and security of the postal service with election material. States don't control the US postal service. If Trump really wants to eliminate fraud with mail in ballots, he will provide extra security for the ballots passing through the mail system. But what does he do? He and the postmaster general are undermining the postal system by reducing staff and equipment during the elections, and then insisting that mails that arrive later than 3rd November should be discarded, even if it was posted a month before the elections. UPS and DHL delivers any package to any where within the US within 24 hours. I get anything I order from China from alibaba within 1 week. Why can't US postal service deliver election ballots within one week? USPS is beginning to compete with Nigerian NIPOST.
Trump made a statement about the mailin ballot. Some true some unproven or unknown... But every argument I have made about this is not about trump, or dems or rep... It's about safeguarding the system.
Most of Trump statements concerning mail in ballots are false. Americans have been using mail in ballots for decades if not centuries, Trump and the Republicans had been voting by mail in since, Trump won the last elections where mail in was used. So why all the hostility against mail in ballots now?

If Trump wants to safeguard mail in ballots, he would safeguard and improve the postal system.

All this while it seems like you agree with what I am saying. Just like anyone who cheats in an exam... He is supposed to be disqualified unless he didn't directly do the cheating. Some one can cheat for him. But this case it seems he has a hand in it so he should be disqualified. The article says he won't be competing again I think.
If you are caught cheating in a WAEC exams, you will not only be disqualified, you will spend 21 years in jail. Anyone caught rigging an election should not only be disqualified, he should be jailed. If you don't punish election riggers, it will encourage others to try to rig elections.

Here you go
Notice that they tampered with absentee ballot... A form of mailin ballot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE0fZftT6aQ
But this video is more of an indictment of Mark Harris and the Republican Party than of absentee or mail in voting. As I said any election system can be rigged. Nigeria doesn’t do absentee voting but our elections is highly rigged. The best way to prevent election rigging is plug all loopholes as much as possible and punish any one caught trying to rig an election (to me election rigging is tantamount to coup ).

Why is the FBI not investigating and prosecuting Mark Harris and his campaign manager? Why will the Republican Party re-present an election rigger to re contest the same election? What's the possibility he won't attempt to rig again?

US is beginning to look like Nigeria everyday, where election riggers are asked to attempt to rig again instead of being thrown in jail.

did I show you an election yesterday that needs to be redone because of fraud? guess what they voted constitutionally and fraud still happen. we all know what signatures are for. when they say signature don't matter... guess what it becomes easier to cheat. they are suppose to be making it hard to cheat not easy. they can vote with mail and i want Dems to vote with mail because we know all the problems with it. at the end of the day 20million can vote only 14 or 17 million will be valid or get to the destination.

I dnt know how else i want to explain to you because i genuine think you are not being honest

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJO4YwSCSPI
Yes or No?
you they post something from UK when we are talking about US.
I am really trying hard not to respond to your insanely stupid assertions, but since no one is pointing out how stupid they are, you just keep repeating it over and over again.

Trump and the Republican party has been screaming to high heavens that democrats wants to rig the elections using mail in ballots and absentee voting, but who was caught trying to rig with mail in voting? Republicans.
So because Republicans are attempting to rig with mail in ballots, mail in balloting should be abandoned or discouraged. What then happens if Republicans are caught trying to rig in person voting? Abandon voting all together? No system in this world is immune from rigging - no system. It depends on the integrity of the players. Republicans have a history of cheating and them blaming others for their cheating.

The signature argument is as stupid as it is crazy. Who determines the extent to which the signatures match? No institution in the world demands your signature much match 100% before you can transaction any business, not even banks. This is because it's almost impossible for three signatures from the same individual to match exactly, especially for complicated signatures. This is why banks require you sign twice or more times in a banking transaction. Signatures vary depending of mood, type of paper used, type of pen used, surface the paper is placed on, etc.

This stupid required would disenfranchise more than 50% of voters. This would give election officials tremendous power to determine who to disenfranchise. Democracy is about giving each eligible voter the power to vote and not prevent or discourage people from voting. If a person is proven to have voted multiple times, then that is a crime and the person should be prosecuted and jailed. But, unmatched signatures is not proof of multiple voting.

Then why are Republican so obsessed with preventing cheating in only this elections. Are there any proof that there had been widespread fraud in previous elections. With all the "wolf crying" of rigging by Trump in the last elections, no single proof was presented to support the allegations. Even Republican states came out to debunk allegations of rigging by Trump.

Trump and his supporters are only trying to discredit the elections because it is obvious he will lose badly. He wants to give his supporters excuse to wail and probably unleash violence.

Can you blame us liberals?

Many black trump supporters online have been exposed as Russian bots or trolls.
Gbam! It's a waste of time arguing with a troll

boutsourced new operation to Ghana, Nigeria
The Internet Research Agency, the Russian troll farm responsible for interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, has outsourced its activities in 2020 to Ghana and Nigeria, Facebook said in an announcement Thursday.

It wasn’t clear that the new behavior, which led Facebook to remove 49 Facebook accounts, 69 Pages and 85 Instagram accounts for participating in foreign interference online, was focused on elections or political candidates, according to the company. They tended instead to focus on U.S. news, black history, black fashion, black excellence, celebrity gossip, historical figures, and LGBTQ issues.

But the links to the IRA were clear, Facebook’s head of cybersecurity policy, Nathaniel Gleicher, said in a blog post.

The operation in Africa

Some of the activity wittingly done on behalf of Russia, Facebook said, while other local nationals are likely being caught unaware that their work was for Moscow.

The operation in Ghana, as reported by CNN, was run by 16 Ghanaians in their 20s, who variously communicated through Telegram. They were given mobile phones and worked around a table together to run the trolling. In one instance, the operation, which appears to have been run by a Ghanaian man living in Russia, advertised for a role in Charleston, South Carolina.

Ghanaian security, which says the operation was funded by a source in Russia, raided the EBLA building last month, per CNN.

The Donald link below has this


  An nti-CCP group called "The New Federal State of China" is now releasing Hunter Biden sex tape footage in order to show the depth of CCP infiltration and how compromised / owned the Bidens are specifically.

They claim to be dropping new stuff every hour. We will update this thread with new drops.

https://thedonald.win/p/11PVkKV2gr/hunter-bidens-sex-tapes-the-ccps/
I am still at loss as to how these photos and so called sex tapes has anything to do with Joe Biden. I searched all the links for the sex tapes or videos, I could not find them, all I saw were some pictures, most not clear with one looking superimposed on a mirror of Hunter Biden supposedly having sex with a woman. If these pictures were actually taken by Hunter Biden and stored in his laptop for his private viewing pleasure, should the pictures not be clearer and more explicit? Even if the pictures are real, they look more like they were taken with hidden camera than deliberately taken.

Trump and his supporters seems confused on who Trump is competing against. Trump is competing against Joe Biden and not any of his sons. The obsession with Joe Biden's son is unprecedented.

Besides, if the "grab them by the pussy confession " of Trump did not incense has supporters, why should Joe Biden's son's sex life cause so much furore against Joe Biden

Slavery and racism are not the same thing. Blacks owned slaves in the US as well. Slavery has been part of human history. Both whites and blacks and Persian and asians have all suffered as slaves jews too. The white men who took slaves from Africa did not capture them... They bought them from black men who captured them. At least know the history before you talk
What is slavery, what is racism? What gives rise to slavery? Slavery is the end result of racism.

Slavery has been part of human history - yes, but which part of human history restricts slavery to a particular race and skin colour? Even in the bible, slavery was not predicated on race or religion, as Jews had Jewish slaves. That slavery was predicated on class, economics or military conquest, not on skin colour.


I have lived with polish people and dated a polish girl. I know their culture. They are very racist there but they don't have racism problems cause not much blacks go there. Russia is the same thing but not much blacks go there either.
Exactly my point
Yet in the UK blacks are protesting to end the police becuase Americans were protesting.
They were protesting to end police in the US and not the UK. There had never been protest against Police brutality in the UK.

Systematic racism that was put in place by same dems abi? There is racism everywhere. Poland is a very racist country and when you meet the girls that are not racists they usually prefer black men. Just because American media fan the flames of race in the country than any other nation does not mean it more racist. Systematic racism did not stop Obama from being the president or Cory booker in the senate or Ben Carson becoming the best neurosurgeon ever. Fact is Americans just shout all the time... Like they are shouting that traffic lights are racist meanwhile racist nations like Russia and China no one talks about them.
I don't believe I am reading something so ridiculous on a Nigerian forum. I don't believe such rubbish is coming from a Nigerian much less a black person. Seun should devise a way to determine if registered members are Nigerians or foreigners or even Russian bots trying to insult the intelligence of Nigerians.

Imagine someone comparing Poland to the US in terms of racism. Now tell me,
Were slaves taken from Black Africa and ferried to Poland?
Were blacks relegated to sub human status and not given allowed to sit in the same bus with whites in Poland, just 100 years ago?

Were blacks considered not human enough to vote in Poland just a few decades ago?

Did blacks have to embark on a painful and bloody civil rights protests less than 60 years ago?

What is the black population in Poland. I can confidently say that many Poles in isolated polish villages had never seen a black man or woman before. My brother went to the Czech Republic around 1996, and he told me that they visited a town where children would be terrified, crying and running away on seeing him and his black friend on the streets.

Even me myself experience something similar in England in the mid 80s. We left london and went to live in Hove, beside the sea. As of 1984, many people in Brighton and Hove had never seen a black person. Some youths would follow us until we entered out homes.

When I was in the UK, I was never profiled by the police or any state agency based on the colour of my skin. I have never heard of blacks being harrassed by the police in the UK.

How can you expect Poland and even the UK to be held to the same standard with the US in terms of racism? Blacks have been in the US since the 16th century and are about 17% of the population. Tell me which country outside Africa and few black enclaves in the Caribbean has that much percentage of blacks in their population.

Imagine comparing US to China? That's preposterous.

Let me ask you one important question;
How many race riots have there been in the UK, and how many has there been in the US?
So you want to tell me that all the race riots and civil rights protests in the US were unnecessary. The blacks in the US must be very stupid. Maybe to you blacks are sub human after all.

The senate under Mitchell Mcconnell did not even give Obama's nomination a hearing not to talk of not confirming it. His excuse or justification was that the nomination was too close to the elections and that the responsibility of nominating a supreme Court judge should be left to the president who wins the next elections.

Arrant nonsense!!! If the bolded is remotely true, it typically attested to the chameleonic character of Awolowo. Awolowo had trusted the military which gave him the key to Nigerian treasury and distrusted the military which only needed his person on a steering committee.
Good back to school to learn English Comprehension , then come back and comprehend this quotes from the article;
“I learnt from him that there existed two types of the military which he described as professional and mercenary military.

“He told me the military government was of the latter type (and) assured me that he had not seen anything in the IBB regime to assure him of their messianic mission .”

Don't worry I won't call you Atheist but wait oo , you know there's ( DEVIL )

Cool ,if you believe there's DEVIL

The DEVIL himself believe that there is a creator ( he wanted to be like grin )



In a nutshell , the DEVIL knows there's God and you don't

So you are even worse than the DEVIL grin
Can the devil be worse than the so called Nigerian Christians? Most of our thieving politicians are Christians, majority of the callous SARS officers and police officers claim to worship Jesus. Most cultists, prostitutes, yahoo yahoo boys all claim the follow Christ

Then what makes all of them different from THE DEVIL?
