Nice one...To checkmate those who feel Lagos is no man's land

So denying them admission will change the fact that foreigners are getting more successful in Yorubaland than indigenes?

This sort of protectionism in this present age will bring nothing but trouble. Instead of Ambode and his lawmakers to focus on the real problems facing Lagos, such as the filth suffocating Lagos, they are busy passing laws that doesn't really benefit anyone.

You could have simply ignored post...

If it were written in Greek, like most institutions in Nigeria does, would you have made a fuss?

My only issue with that motto is just that it isn't realistic enough, cos even one's foes believe their victory over one comes from God.
Rather it should have read "Victory comes from better fighting tactics and superior firepower."

Idk all the details about Ajaokuta but I've no problem with the theory the Anglo Zionists are secretly string pulling to ensure failure. In Kenya we have the Numerical Machining Complex with the capacity to build jet engines. Its never worked to its capacity and only in the last 3 years has it ramped up production of machine tools. 5 yrs back they rebuilt a local version of the WZ 551 that got hit by an RPG near Kismayo.
First pic is a CNC for steel products and 2 is computerised lathe. The OP is right- without NMC and Ajaokuta you can't PRODUCE YOUR OWN STEEL and will be forever 4th world.

The only existential threat to the functioning of Ajaokuta steel industry is the ridiculously cheap Chinese steels. As such, smart investors will never put their money on a project that will struggle to bring positive returns.
For instance, South African steel industry, a once vibrant industry is now laying off workers in droves because they can't cope with the unhealthy competition from China.
It had nothing to do with USA and NATO as they are also victims of Chinese cheap steel. In fact, just last week USA slammed tariff hike on Chinese steels so as to allow USA's moribund steel industry to once again thrive.

It is pretty straightforward, there is no conspiracy here. I am not a pessimist but, with the level of unhealthy competition in the world steel market, Ajaokuta will continue to be a pipe dream.

Have you watched the video? Those guys were flogged before being beheaded? If yes then the video is really old as the screenshot seems like something I have seen before and I have also seen comments on twitter about it being an old video.

I have seen the one you are talking about on Channels TV Documentary about BHT. Can you recall that guy casually chewing his chewingstick before he was shot?

This, however, is different. I can tell from its thumbnail.

Exclusive: Nigeria interested in acquiring Russian S-400 ground-to-air missile system.

The Nigerian defence minister confirmed the interest in buying S-400 missiles from Russia, the same missile defence system was recently sold to its allies, Iran and Turkey. Nigeria interest in this air defence systems will make her the first user in Africa with Algeria operating older versions.

Nigeria is interested in purchasing the same Russian missile defence system recently sold to Iran and Turkey, Nigeria's defence minister revealed.

Nigerian military authorities have voiced an official interest in buying advanced S-400 air and missile defence systems from the Russian Federation. Nigeria's efforts to enhance its defensive strategic military capabilities is necessary as the country do not posses a strategic missile defence system. For some years now it has sought to have a long-range missile defence system of its own, as it is currently relying on old Roland air defense systems.

You call those nonsense posts of yours proper exposé? You are a strange fellow.

Please point out just a single statement in any of my posts that makes me, as you said earlier, a tribalist. I am waiting
Cos where I come from, telling parents to take proper care of their wards doesn't make one a tribalist.
And telling people to quit giving tacit support to something that will cause them problem in the future doesn't make one narrow minded.

The problem that unchecked Wahabihism is gonna cause in Nigeria will make Boko Haram activities look like a 5year old painting book.

Psychologists called something "Classical Conditioning"
It explains how we form our opinions and believes based on what we are hearing since childhood.

That's why for an average Nigerian from the South, the image that comes to his mind when he hear about a Northerner is that of one rag-head, illiterate, aggressive Hausa speaking and uncivilized man that always have a dagger underneath his shirt.

I was like that too. Until I force my self outa my comfort zone to live among them... And that so far is the best decision of my life.

You are repeating the same nonsense like a broken record. No one is talking about stereotypes here. I have definitely lived in the North than you have since you only went there for your NYSC. I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly. I have made enough quality friends in the North. But that will not blind me to the various anomalies up there.
They marry more than they can afford. Birth litters of children they can't cater for and leave them on the street to become beggars. And most have an unhealthy attitude towards Western education.

Have you ever had an encounter with an almajiri child? Have you seen the filthy abode they call home? Have you seen hitherto superficial wound on their body metastasis just because they lack medical attention? Have you seen them lying on the street barely alive?

I have seen them. Paid them to wash my cloth and do my dishes. And yeah, some of them do have daggers hidden in their pants. I have seen one use a dagger, he retrieved from his loin area, to cut an orange. I was petrified, like who uses a dagger to cut orange?

You may wonder, "are there no educated elite in the North to stop this ticking time bomb?"
Well, there are many of em. Just that they prefer the status quo because it benefit them.
