The Commander-In-Chief of the world's greatest military knows next to nothing about wars?? Haba, brother wirinet!!! Two retired Generals are against, and you think the CNC never takes counsel of his SERVING Generals?
Europe cannot quickly send in troops to take custody of ISIS prisoners, only to sit in Brussel calling Trump populist, nationalist and waiting to roast him for "dangerous military escalation" if should do a troop surge to roll back the Turkish machine. And have we even forgotten Turkey is a NATO ally of America and Europe. Governments face hard choices. Big sympathy for the Kurds, but NATO allies will not fight each other to protect them from Turkey they had lived and fought with since I dont know when.
I know the frustration of leftists at home. Trump has refused to give them something to howl about by starting a new war or escalating an old one. Trump is the definition of an anti-war President and I'm sure the vast majority Americans are happy about that.
He wants to fight as a last resort, and fight to win, from his interview I read.

What does the Commander-In-Chief of the world's greatest military know about war? Had he ever been in any war? Had he had any military training? A Commander-In-Chief of the world's greatest military that faked injury to avoid going to Vietnam. In fact Trump avoided draft 5 times.

It's not just two retired Generals that was against the pull out, most serving or retired military officers are against the pull out. Even those serving in Northern Syria that Trump claimed to be concerned about are all against the pull out.

You are as ignorant as Trump in anything to do with warfare. You expect Europe to deploy soldiers and equipments into Syria (a war zone ) within one week? You think the men and equipments will just be teleported into northern Syria from Brussels.

Which vast majority of Americans support Trump's withdrawal from Northern Syria. You must be living in an alternative universe or maybe right inside Trump's ass. Even Fox have come out to condemn the withdrawal.So also the evangelical Christians, who are Trump's main base. Here is what Pat Robertson said in a broadcast on Monday;
“I believe … the president of the United States is in danger of losing the mandate of heaven if he permits this to happen,”

Zico5:
And APC said fuel subsidy is a scam. God bless GEJ. The elites in this country owe GEJ an apology. Despite the massive increment in the price of fuel, the fuel subsidy will still gulp 450 billions. I wonder what the members of APC are thinking now. PDP might be corrupt but things are not this hard. Who knows, may be God is punishing us for all the insults against GEJ.

Under GEJ, Fuel subsidy was N3 trillion (that's 3 trillion naira ). Buhari was still paying for GEJ's fuel subsidy when he took over.

Sirjamo:
There are more than 300 apartments in aso rock and this woman wants to have access to every one of it!

Soon, she would evict the dogs in aso rock from their cage and claim that she needs it to host a tea party. Greedy woman!

Even if there are 1000 apartments, it's her home. She is the lady of the manor, She takes over the running of the estate when her husband was absent. She was a figure of authority. That's why she has an office called "office of the first lady"

Jimi24:
Cowardly young liar. Buhari ejected the family of a man he used to know as a brother decades before his wife was born to satisfy his wife and immediate family based in her request.

We know most young Nigerians are incapable of critical thinking and depth but try to READ and UNDERSTAND what is put in front of you. I.know its difficult for you ..but try.

Aisha has misunderstanding with extended family ...that is 90% of all families in the world.

However since Buhari ejected Daura's family to accommodate his recovering son, we can surmise he is not being controlled by anyone.

There is a kitchen cabinet in Aso Rock... you calk them cabal ..there ia a kitchen cabinet in the White House, Kremlin, everywhere.

Aisha should stop making a spectacle of herself. In the UK, the royal family has internal tension.. Meghan is at odds with her in laws. No biggie ....welcome to life.
Aisha can oppose APC policies publicky and even ctiticize her husban and Buhari has not ever stopped that BUT she should apply wisdom in managing her family affairs. In Yorubaland, the Daura guy would actually be like Father In Law even though he us younger than Buhari

So because a man knew someone as a brother decades before his wife was born, he should leech on him and also bring his whole family to leech on him. So what would have happened if Buhari was not elected president? Mammam Daura would have moved his whole family into Buhari's house in Daura?

I am surprised you mentioned Yorubaland, we are of the impression that Yoruba culture forbids disrespect of elders or seniors by children. I also thought absolute respected are accorded wife of the patriarch of the family. I never knew Yorubas support the disrespect and disregard of wives by children of cousins or "father in laws".

Gandollaar:
Oga borrow data and watch the video. Aisha was screaming repeatedly that enough was enough.

Fatima daura clearly stated she shot the video as evidence of the Aisha's incessant harassments.

Are you in Mars or is the usual asslicking?

Aisha's incessant harassments in her own home? Even though I was not a fan, of Patience Jonathan, I love her ability for fight for her rights. If any of Jonathan's cousins or uncles, not to talk of their spoilt children, try this shit with mama peace, she will tie her wrapper around her waist and show them Okrika style.

What is the fatima herself doing in Aso Rock, leaching on her father's relationship with the president? Should she not be lording it over her husbands house? Afterall most girls her age have had 3 or 4 children for their husbands.

garetz:
The whistleblower appears to have developed cold feet and doesn't want to testify again. first his lawyers asked if he could testify in writing, and now Adam Schiff is saying they may not invite him to testify anymore. i think the recent revelations that he is a Democrat who worked for Biden and that he coordinated with Adam Schiff's staff before writing his complaint has destroyed his credibility and exposed him to serious legal danger should he accept to testify under oath.

Far right nationalists love to throw red herrings in the guise of conspiracy theories. So it's no longer the deep state out to remove Trump, it's the Democrats and Adam Schiff that planted a spy in the state department and then make Trump say the things in the Ukraine phone call.

Usual Trump strategy of attacking the personality his accusers, instead of attacking the allegations itself.
Don't worry, the impeachment inquiries is just beginning, many more whistleblowers will come out. You can label them all Adam Schiff's or Hillary Clinton's staff if you like.

OLAADEGBU:
Here is the Christian's stand on homosexuality.

And here is a Muslim's stance on infidels.

And let me also add jewish stance on adultery.

zendi:
Bushman above, why are you triggered by my use of the term 'open-border', which describes the western left-wing's idea of immigration and border control? Why does the term resonate so sourly to you that you erupted into such hateful, confused and junked tantrum.
Anyway, no time for endless rebuttals. President Trump, from his utterances, is not unsympathetic to the plight of the Kurds, but for how long will American troops remain in Northern Syria to deter Turkey? Turkey will threaten the Kurds forever.
Trump is not a President of confusion but of commonsense. So better leave Turkey and Assad, backed by whoever backs him, to sort out who owns sovereignty over Syria. If Assad, allied with the Kurds and backed by Russia succeeds in chasing out Turkey, he will then crush the Arab Spring, re-establish authority over the entirety of Syria and prevent ISIS Caliphate from re-emerging. The ISIS prisoners presntly will be released in the fighting, there's nothing anybody can do about it. Nobody has agreed to take them. But in the absence of a territorial caliphate, there is nothing they can do except to melt back home to terrorize Europe as lone wolves. To stop that, Europe should rush in troops now.
As for your other junk points, those military Generals disagreed with their President and bowed out, free to run for office and market their foreign policy ideas to the people.
And you are not a mind reader to know that servicemen would oppose Trump if an opinion poll is conducted.

Meant for wirinet. There is a reason I couldn't quote him directly.

Illiteracy at its worst. Please demand a refund of your school fees (if it was not a free public school).
Europe should rush in troops abi? You think that it's easy to rush in troops (especially to a war zone, just like that)?


The US is already in the middle of the conflict, whether they like it or not, the only problem now is that they moved from a position of strength to a position of weakness.

Turkey-Syria offensive: US sanctions Turkish ministries
The US has sanctioned two Turkish ministries and three senior government officials in response to the country's military offensive in northern Syria.

President Donald Trump also phoned his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan to demand an immediate truce, Vice-President Mike Pence said.

Mr Pence said he would travel to the region "as quickly as possible".
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-50050264

A week ago the US had some military leverage to negotiate with turkey, but now, Trump's is using sanctions and begging for truce.

They have strategic interests and allies in the middle east to protect, so they will always be involved in the middle east.

So the opinions of Generals do not matter in a war situation, only that of Trump who knows next to nothing about war or international politics and who ran away from the draft during the Vietnam war is knows all. To you guys, Trump must be greater than Jesus.

Melison:
Bros northerners dey cry pass abeg,I know many die hard APC supporters that have cursed this present govt, a mudu of local rice is almost 1k so how u expect local man to survive,don't think this is a regional matter,the thing reach everywhere

Is it by force to eat rice? Many other countries don't eat rice like we do and they survive. How many rice do Britain, Germany, France, Russia, etc eat? Are they not surviving?

Wallade:
Why must importers of unbanned products use airport or seaport? Why not the border if it is cheaper after paying the import duties and levies required?

Honestly, banning importation via the borders is not a good move.

Border cannot be cheaper. You are meant to pay the same duties you pay at the ports at the borders, but custom officers connive with smugglers to short change the duties or avoid them altogether. Remember, the shipping cost is the same to Cotonuo and apapa ports, Benin government charge about 5 - 10% duties on imported items, and you transport items to border posts to pay Nigerian duties again, before you drive through the horrendous Badagry Road to get to mile 12.
Now, how is it cheaper going through the land borders?

If the items originate through Benin or west Africa, yes it would be cheaper, but not when coming from China, Thailand or India.

surgical:
nothing,they are confused,how can you ban import and export,what of the goods produced by your country men for the west African markets

As explained earlier, goods are not banned, only smuggling is banned.

The seaport is in a bad shape
Manufacturers and exporters are in for a serious issues, the cost of getting to and out the port is enormous
It's next level hardship for the people

Yes, the sea ports are in bad shape. We should advocate, the opening up and use of more ports across the country ie, warri port, Portharcourt port, Calabar ports, etc.

The hardship of getting goods from Benin republic through Badagry road is harrowing. That road is in a very very bad shape.

Sirnuel:
What exactly are they aiming to achieve??

Can someone tell these people you don't ban food importation at the end of farming season, you are supposed to do it at the beginning of the year so farmers will know what crops to cultivate.

What do I know, none of these men knows the real cost of goods in the market, all they do is sit around and make useless policies. This is going to be the worse xmas ever.

They did not ban food importation, they banned importation (smuggling ) through the land borders.
If you want to import food into the country, import it through Apapa port, Tin can Island ports, Calabar ports, or any other Nigerian sea ports.

LocalNietzsche:
Ignorance is wickedness. Woe to the ignorant people and government officials that support this ban. I just have to buy rice at a much much higher price just because some of you want to eat local rice only. Something has to be unaffordable to me because of your preferences. Woe to the supporters of famine because the manna falls from heaven and not from their hands. Woe to all of you that block heaven is only you that will die in this hell.

Which famine? Beans, yam, Garri, akpu, amala and even bread don finish for market? Na by force to chop rice? If we want chop rice, why can't we grow rice? Afterall rices is grown and harvested within 3 months.

What you guys fail to understand is that imported rice and fuel is putting too much strain on our foreign reserves and exchange rate. If dang dangote refinery becomes operational and we grow our own rice, our exchange rate will improve tremendously, maybe $1 to less than N200.

zendi:
Let the EU send troops to takeover the ISIS prisoners. Most of the foreign fighters among them are said to be EU open-border citizens.

You have a psychological condition called self hate. It a condition that affect people from extremely poor homes, like people living in mud huts in villages. If by a stroke of luck, they escape poverty and start living in big cities, they loathe everything and everybody that reminds them of their poverty stricken background. They will hate their parents, sisters, uncles and even village folks. They will not want to see anyone from their village escape poverty like they did, and do everything to prevent that.

Trump's parents were immigrants escaping poverty from their home countries. Trump's wives were immigrants that came to America to look for a better life. In fact Trump helped last track the naturalisation of his current wife's parents. But Trump has a rabid hatred for immigrants.

Same with the poster. He is probably immigrated from Nigeria to the US to escape poverty. But now, he does not want to see any other countryman escape poverty like him by immigrating to the US (or even Europe for that matter), and have developed a rabid hatred for immigrants and those that support immigration.

zendi:
Let the EU send troops to takeover the ISIS prisoners. Most of the foreign fighters among them are said to be EU open-border citizens.

Trump and his supporters are very poor student of history. They are unaware that a crisis or war in Europe will also affect the US. That's how Franklin Roosevelt said the war in Europe was not US concern until the war came to their doorstep.

Twice in history has the US been dragged into a European war, and Trump and his stupid worshippers are still saying a conflict in Europe is Europe's problems and not the US's.

zendi:
Well, bushman, Trump does not want to spill American blood all over the world to protect influence. Here, he has chosen to prioritize influence in Saudi over that of Syria. Let your globalist cowards of the EU send in troops for Syria influence. And how would your ignorance know that Russian and Iranian influence were in Syria long before Obama came with his half-hearted war against IS.

Gosh, a stark illiterate pretending to be wise, but only sounding more foolish.
Here are what General Mcmaster, Trump's former US national security adviser said concerning Trump's troop withdrawal from Northern Iraq;

The deployment was "immensely helpful" to U.S. security and interests.

So what’s unfortunate, I think, about the decision is I think a lot of people who may have been talking to the president, or the president himself, may not have focused maybe on the importance of that force in connection with defeating the terrorist organization, but also having the influence necessary to ultimately help end this catastrophe across the greater Middle East

Preventing what we see now, which is a Turkish-Kurdish civil war that has profound political as well as humanitarian consequences in the region.

The presence of US forces in Northern Syria helped prevent Syrian President Bashar Assad and his ally, Russian President Vladimir Putin, from taking hold of 65% to 70% of Syria's oil reserves.

Here is the view of General James Mattis, another 4 start general and Trump's former defense minister on the troop withdrawal;

“If we don’t keep the pressure on,” Mattis told NBC’s Meet the Press, “then Isis will resurge. It’s absolutely a given that they will come back.”

These are four star generals who fought in the Gulf war, and a Nigerian nobody who never carried a toy gun before, is worried about spilling US blood.

If you carry out a survey of the US military, I am sure very few officers would support the troop withdrawal from Northern Syria.

zendi:
This talkative bushman, which part of US Homeland or Territory is called Syria or Kurd?
Trump orders the military deployments and signs the never ending condolence letters to America's Angel families.
And now, America-First President Trump has told you that America is done shedding American blood and billions policing ancient tribal/sectarian animosities in the ME.
Trump is a businessman by background and knows to quickly cut off what's wasteful and of little or no benefit.
The UN is where to direct your incessant whining, for peacekeeping intervention.
And while the Security Council is debating, the Kurds should join forces with Assad to repel Turkish aggression.

Your own Abobaku is legendary, I would say extremist. Even Trump's staunchest allies, disagree with Trump's sudden unilateral troop withdrawal from Syria. Fox news has spoken against the pull out, Lindsay Graham has criticised the move, even Mitch McConnell who is the best Trump's ass licker in American has criticized Trump on the pull out
But here have a Nigerian Abobaku, with little understanding of international politics trying so spin a disastrous decision.

How many condolence letters has Trump signed to American families because of Northern Syria? How many US soldiers actually face battle in Northern Syria. America just provide air support and few military advisers to the peshmerga fighters. A role that would be undertaken by Putin now. Trump just gifted US influence in Syria to Putin.

When the thousands of ISIS fighters held by the kurds escape and regroup, you think any country including the US would escape their terror influence? Even Iran would now have a huge influence in Northern Syria as allies of Russia and Assad. This is the same Iran that might be in a conflict with US in the very near future.

Gandollaar:
Ehnn.. but what's the hullabaloo about locked doors for?
You travelled and came back and entered your house and wanted to access a room and found it locked and was told by your staff that it's cos they didn't know you were coming. What's there to rant about?
Fingers crossed.

False narrative propagated by PDP to fit their narrative.
The video was obviously taken before she travelled out. In video she mentioned she was was still at the airport and had not even reached Aso Villa yet. She confirmed, it was her in the video but it was an old video.

I wonder where this poster got the idea that she she was locked out of her house from. Maybe she watched another video, or did not watch the video at all. She was obviously, in her house and found the door locked. They locked her in and not out.

I am not saying she is not caught up in the power play within the villa, but insinuating that this video is proof that Aisha was locked up in the villa because Buhari is marrying another lady, is mischievous.

Kylekent59:
By your comment, I knw you are a Nigerian.
How did I know?

1. Their comments are full of hate

2. Their comments are absurd

3. Their comments are Malevolent

4. They are always in a haste to criticise someone else

5. They way they comment show they are in hell

6. Their comments show they are depressed

7. They don't reason before commenting

8. They take something serious as a joke

9. Their comments are always stale and acrid

should I continue? I have many more to write

Senseless rants. Everybody is entitled to an opinion, and opinions different from yours don't constitute hatred.

Back to the post.

Congrats to her, she is really beautiful. Being the most beautiful is not about your height, being beautiful , figure 8, and having a big boot, but by what you have upstairs and how to make the society a better place.

You possess all these qualities which made them crown you the most beautiful. Keep shinning young lady.

Then the competition should be renamed most smart girl in Nigeria. But calling the winner "the most beautiful girl in Nigeria" is a misnomer. There are far more beautiful girls on every street in Nigeria.

Washington Journal: Hunter Biden to step down from Board of Chinese Firm

So I guess that vindicates them, right? Makes them less corrupt now, OK? CNN would love this.

Hunter has to step down from board of Chinese firm because people like you will make it a campaign issue.

There is no law whatsoever forbidding family members of the president/vice president or any other politician from holding office nationally or internationally. That's why Trump was able to appoint his daughter and son in inlaw as white house staffs.

I honestly don't understand how Joe Biden's son being on a board of a Chinese firm becomes a problem for his father. He bought a 10% share in BHR (Shanghai), an equity firm with the aim of investing in foreign companies. Naturally he had enough shares to be a board member ( non executive), but Trump and his people will not let us hear word.
Meanwhile the same Chinese has granted Ivanka Trump 16 trademarks within the last one year, and at the same time Trump is fighting a trade war with China.

obixcel:
Zahra that they locked up some where Nobody dey see her shadow sef

Oh I forgot to add this
Where is Hunter?
Where is Zahra?

Zahra locked up? Maybe in your wishes. Zahra that was never locked up in her father's house, Zahra that went to university in London. Zahra that her mother was never locked up anywhere, Zahra that married the son of one of the richest men in Nigeria. You now wished that she is imprisoned in purdah.

At least Zahra did not need to change religion in order to marry her husband, unlike Ivanka.

obixcel:
Jealousy is the root of Hatred smh

Why d thing dey pain you, eh?

E dey pain me say Buhari no give Zahra Buhari special privileges. I would have loved seeing Zahra represent Nigeria at the UN general assembly or when discuss Nigeria's problems with Ramaphosa when Buhari went to South Africa

President Trump announces $50 Million in Aid to help Christians in Syria.

Trump's Abobaku number 2, aid for what exactly? Aid to stop Erdoghan's attacks or aid to flee their homeland?

What of the numerous biblical passages that preaches hate?

Deuteronomy 21:18-21
18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. 20 They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you.

What of the story of Dinah, joseph daugher and Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite? Hamor's son raped Jacobs daughter, but hamor himself came to beg Joseph for forgiveness and offered for his son to marry his daugher (as proposed by the same bible). What did Jacob do? He tricked all the men to become circumcised (a condition for marrying his daughter) and then slaughtered all the men (most of them innocent) and took all the wealth, livestocks and women as spoils.

Genesis 34:25-29

25 Three days later, while all of them were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, took their swords and attacked the unsuspecting city, killing every male. 26 They put Hamor and his son Shechem to the sword and took Dinah from Shechem’s house and left. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the dead bodies and looted the city where[c] their sister had been defiled. 28 They seized their flocks and herds and donkeys and everything else of theirs in the city and out in the fields. 29 They carried off all their wealth and all their women and children, taking as plunder everything in the houses.

Even Jesus said he did not come to bring peace but sword

Matthew 10:34



Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword

Here is another quote by Jesus

luke 14:26
“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.

budaatum:
The photos are fake too. Photoshopped for sure, they'll claim, by Hillary!

Here is another shocker. when talking to foreign leaders, it is said that Trump often hand over the phone to ivanka, as ask them to say hi to his daughter.
And Trump's Abobakus are ready to crucify Joe Biden for his son profiting from his influence.

Imagine, Ivanka Trump attending G8 meeting, sitting and discussing with foreign leaders. We might as well make Ivanka Trump the deputy president.

myright:
if the SE was to be a country, will the north and SW have a say about the Enugu International airport, onitsha port? Will there be numerous police /army check points along our roads? Will there be 58 toll-gates as being proposed? Will Aba and Onitsha not have international airports? etc

If the south east were an independent country, the North might not have a say about Enugu international airport, but the north (through Nigeria), will have a say in planes that will land and take off from Enugu international airport. Without Nigeria granting permission to use its airspace, no plane can leave or enter Enugu international airport.

Same thing with Onitsha port. Without permission from Nigeria, no ship can leave or enter Onitsha port.

About the police/army. This is a debate we should be debating at the national assembly. Federal Police is an aberration. Each state or political unit must have their own Police to enforce their laws. It's stupid to ask federal Police to enforce state laws in state high courts.

But then, it seems the political elites are very comfortable with the current warped arrangements. Except for very few Yoruba politicians, no other politicians from other regions are fighting for state Police.

The military have no business policing the streets, their core function is clearly spelt out in the constitution. They should remain in the Barracks.

feedthenation:
Another photo going back to 2014. President Trump with Lev Parnas. Also a photo of Aaron Parnas (Lev's son) with Trump at Trump Tower.
There's even a group family photo with the Trump clan.

These are lies from the deep state, the Democrats and Hillary Clinton. Maybe Clinton's Emails has something to do with it.
Trump said he does not know them, they probably had just one photo together during a rally;

"I don't know those gentlemen. Now, it's possible I have a picture with them, because I have a picture with everybody."
"Maybe they were clients of Rudy,"

According to his supporters, Trump is infallible. He defines what truth and reality is.

Once I take it, I will be unable to sleep for 3 days. I will have serious chest congestion, mild asthma attack, mostly at night.

My brda, don't misconstrue me. this is not me insulting him, but me showing him how pathetically vapid he is in resorting to insult against a superior argument, and also drowning him in the pool of his own shît.

He's just a kid that learnt few curse word, and became inebriated by it, by always condescending to name calling when he is bereft of cogent point to negate an argument. I'm just simply showing him how insipid he is in his own ignominy.

It is beyond belief that a Presidential candidate will see insults and innuendos (and digging up dirt) as a veritable campaign strategy in getting votes for office, and the far right is cheering on. Because he succeeded with Hillary, he has now taken it to new lows. How sick can a segment of the human population is.

It was the Sunday Sunday medicine that was giving me problems. I have no problems with piriton

Is it for allergies, asthma or malaria?

It seems youre doing well on the Fansider. I took it for a short while and almost ran mad does it affect your stomach as it did mine?

Sorry, my error. I mean to say Sunday Sunday medicine, can't remember the generic name.

I take piriton when I have sinusitis and other allergies.

LOMBARDY:
Are you Yoruba?

Not exactly, I am itsekiri. Our language is similar to Ilaje and Ijebu dialects. Having said that, I lived and schooled in various parts of Yoruba land, so I have friends from various dialects. I once had an Ondo girlfriend, when she spoke her Yoruba dialect, I could not understand a word.
