nonsense. Russia will be able to defend itself, that's for sure but they have no capacity to invade anyone. They are basically stuck at their own border in the invasion of Ukraine while Ukraine even have troops inside Russia. If Russia invade Poland, they will be beaten so badly that they will quietly abandon the war

You are living in fantasyland and are grossly ignorant of geopolitics.

Poland a country of 36 million people which imports all its advanced weapons cannot stand Putin.
It will be overrun eventually when Poland run out of men or money or both.

Only two ways to stop a Russian invasion, have more men or have nukes.

She will eventually have to resign even though she has the overwhelming majority assembly members
behind her.
But a permanent rift has been created which will be exploited in few years time.

Feldie:
Russia is the most overrated country in the world and will get beaten black and blue by Germany, Turkey or Canada. I literally watched Ukraine beat and humiliated Russia in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Kherson while Russia kept inventing cope terminologies like "feint" "tactical regrouping" and other nonsense to explain away their humiliation

There are many missing pieces you are not considering.
Putin have absolute control over domestic policies with zero opposition.
He also has a much larger population than those individual countries you listed under his control,
Russians on average are less scared of deaths and are more used to poorer standard of living
than their western European counterparts and most importantly, Putin have the weapon called "oil" in abundance
which he could manipulate to create domestic energy crises in its enemies territory.

How about the psychological value of threatening nukes every few weeks?

He can announce a draft which nobody dares openly question but those other countries have oppositions
even pro-Russian ones who would be scheming on how to seize power from the party running the war
especially when economy starts shrinking.

The only thing that can stop Putin is an effective and unwavering defense coalition.
One on one, he will simply prolong the war as much as he can till his enemies gets tired.

Are those reacting unaware that Trump is completely deaf to everything except flattery?

It is like insulting an attention and validation seeking kid on Tiktok, the more the reactions, the
more they are motivated.

regenerateman:
A federal high court in Abakaliki validated this man's expulsion as the South East zonal vice-chairman of PDP and they are still electing him today. Indeed, PDP is really a house of confusion.

A court cannot deregister a member of a member of a political party.
The judge ruled based on ignorance.

timosaxzz:
I never see senseless people for one party like pdp..
Very disorganize....
You know say court just give judgement few days ago yet una still go ahead...
Simple reason why dey lost to APC...
Pdp members and greed na 5&6...

Mumu people party...

This party is finished...

Why are you crying more than the bereaved?

Markets don't listen to appeals, it responds to incentives.

Nonsense.
Why not 5 billion?

Bittersweetnig:
carry your dumb head go one side. You people are very reason why this country can never move forward.

See this imbe cile feeling important.

Nonentities that don't even warrant a second glance in real life
thinks free internet data makes them special.

Dreal1247:
Let more players be encouraged into the industry and you see the price reduced naturally. The major problem is that the Nigerian Government policies are not favorable for business organizations. Create a conducive business environment and see massive industrialization. Until we have a business minded leader and not a career politician, the production and the agricultural sector will continue to be in comantose.

What do you mean by business minded leaders?

Alluding to the Yoruba saying: ‘Bi oba kan ko ku, omiran kii je’ (A king is not appointed when the incumbent is still very much on the stool), Ajayi added: “Pa Fasoranti who is the Leader of Afenifere and Asiwaju of the Yorubas is actively performing as such.”

Pa Fasoranti himself started the tradition of appointing successor while alive when he appointed Ayo Adebanjo.
So, this statement is null and void.

dettolgel:
Where did you get the news that NATO is no more?

Officially, NATO still exists, but in reality, it exists only exists on paper.

NATO pays the US more than it pays EU.

It doesn't matter to Trump.
Trump believes NATO members are some sort of parasites, if he has his way(he will eventually),
he would have officially withdrawn to the cheers of his supporters.

Trump is only bluffing and wont dare pull US from NATO.

Trump doesn't bluff. People mistake the fact that he changes course a lot of times
with the same thing as bluffing. The real question is why did he change course?
Whenever Trump is said to change course, we usually find that he did not out of
any strategic thinking but because he met an unresolvable scenario or imminently
painful outcome.

As we speak Germany is currently ramping up is military though it will take years for EU to the level of security provided by US.

The real security provided by the US is the belief in the NATO concept that:
"I will join you to fight if you come under attack"
When such can no longer be relied on, then the security is a mirage.

The US military bases often cited as security provide little to no security to the host European countries
as any unwilling US president could withdraw troops within days to avoid any confrontation or
even make a "win-win" deal to have the bases spared in case of a Russian invasion.

If Europe fail to see the handwriting on the wall and pursue independent defense policie,
it may end up as colonies within 10 years.

CoronaVirusPro:
🤣🤣🤣🤣


Trump is going to nail the coffin of European countries.

Putin is a genius! He won the war and still had the US in his pocket.

Europe should just lay low if they still want NATO. Cos any attempt to provoke Trump will make him exit NATO and that’s Putin’s plan

NATO is already dead, at least US is no longer part of it.
It remains only a concept on paper and Putin knows that too.

If a war breaks out between Europe and Russia today, Trump will sell weapons to Russia
and call it a business move.

But Putin needs at least 4 years to rebuild for a new war that is definitely happen going to happen.

The only reason Trump cannot come out to officially withdraw from NATO is that he wants to use
it to blackmail Europe to accept Ukraine deal and the potential shrinkage of US defense
industry should NATO end because only an idiot will rely on the unstable Trump for its own defense.

At this point, the only difference between Putin and Trump is that Putin has 100% control over
both domestic and foreign Russia affair while Trump only have the external one.

Trump may think he is making money for the US but America will pay heavily in the near future
as it gradually lose all the advantages it got from WW II.

The clear winner in this game is China.

oluwaseyi0:
This election is one of the most important election for Labour Party, if they loose this then it's going to massively affect their 2027 chances

How will they explain that Lagos should have Labour party governor and representative but Anambra state of Peter Obi is rejecting same labour party?

Your analysis is very poor.
When did Labor party gubernatorial performance starts affecting presidential race?
In fact, Labour party is a one man show, if he stay, they pull significant votes, if he leaves,
they go back to square one.

Emu4life:
They play na.

He thought USA was dashing him Billions for Free

The US never do things for free regardless of how they want to potray it.

Saudi Arabia and Israel who they consider thier middle East allies are some of the heaviest US weapons customers.

It was a good thing that Nigeria resoundingly rejected thier proposal of a US base here. We would never have finished paying the debts.

This is Trump's personal play.
Yes, US like any other country does nothing for free
but it is never like these blatant loan shark "deals" by Trump.

CodeTemplar:
AI has opened the door for denial of actual video evidence whenever caught in the act.

How is your comment relevant to the topic?

mrvitalis:
How do you know Awolowo was convicted without evidence? U know more than the judge?

I purposely asked that direct question which I know you will avoid as you belong to the usual suspects group who stands for nothing
impersonal.

Assuming you are a reader, there are several books and documents that dealt with the trial including:

"The Trial of Obafemi Awolowo" by L.K. Jakande (1966)
Obafemi Awolowo's Allocutus(1963)

For future sake, Judges are not gods or super humans.
Judges do not gather or present evidence, their job is to deliberate on the presented evidence and give verdict.

BTW, I fully support the 1966 coup and the targets, the only regret being that Nnamdi Azikwe, one of the instigators
of political instability escaped death.

What is really curious is that you seem to see judges as infallible gods in certain cases even with no evidence while opposing their decisions
in others.

kedeojo:
God will continue to bless president Tinubu which vision as governor of Lagos, introduced free trade zone firstly to the country and even Obasanjo copied and some governors till date still coping. Fools will now be comparing him to Obi the boy who is visionless. Always supporting crime perpetuated by his people. 2023 will be different from 2027, those propaganda can't move anybody again. Tinubu also was the first governor to introduced the justice reform under the former vice president, Osibanjo as commissioner of justice and attorney general of Lagos state. Those of you whose brain is not high to understand can go and Google about justice reform and his benefits before you make fool of yourself. His reformed will be beneficial to the country in few times.

The first free trade zone in Nigeria is the Calabar Free Trade Zone.
Going by your typed words, I can't tell if you are ignorant or simply lying.

mrvitalis:
Really so Kanu can be innocent even when found guilty?

No need to digress.
You think I am one of those emotional kids who lose their reasoning when a particular name is mentioned?

If Kanu is convicted with no evidence, yes, he will be innocent regardless of the number
of years he gets.

Now back to the topic.
Do you think being convicted for "attempt to overthrow" the government automatically makes any suspect
a coup plotter?

Melagros:
COMRADES, based on the western media propaganda, I used to think that massive corruption and theft (immorality) are peculiar to Nigerians and Africans alone; honestly, if not because of this revelation, all this while,

Understand the meaning of a word before you use it.
Propaganda has specific meaning.

I've been regarding the whites as being saints

Only an idiot regard a fellow human as saint based on skin color.

mrvitalis:
So can you be sentenced without being found guilty?

Being found guilty is irrelevant.
Why and the evidence for the guilt verdict is more important in a political context, at least, for properly educated people.

Ikinternational:
You're actually the dull one

He was responding back to the guy with sarcasm.

Too bad it flew over your educated head

What you retards now do is deflect to sarcasm when your illogical premise is pointed out.
Funny thing is, many of your folks have been defending the stupid statement and even the
quoted guy has accepted his folly by default.

SMH

ValarDoharis:
You're the dull obe if you cannot get my drift.

If he was indicted for coup plotting, it goes to show that he has the propensity to plan another one.

The 1966 January coup was supposed to free him and make him the president. All the people that were killed were actually Awolowo's enemies

No, he wasn't indicted for coup plotting.
He was indicted for wanting to "overthrow the government" by the stupid Balewa administration
who got angry because Awolowo resisted his attempt to politically take over the western region.


Anybody with functioning brain knows that the trial was a political hit by the jittery NPC.
The judge even declared that "My hands are tied." before passing the judgment.
That is the first coup trial in the history of the world where 100% of the accused are civilians
that have zero ties with the military.
And what evidence was used?
Alleged article writings published in newspapers! Yes, the weapon for the coup was the
public writings of the accused, not guns , not bombs but writings.

It is soldiers that plots coups and not civilians with zero official powers.
I don't expect you to understand due to your severe intellectual deficiency.

ValarDoharis:
Why was he in prison for so long?

How dull can you be?
Someone was sentenced to 10 years in prison and you are still asking why he was in prison
for so long.

Plotting to overthrow because he refused to dance to the tunes of the north.
Even the judge in the case admitted it was just a political charade.

The fascist Tafawa Balewa deserve what he got.

Trump is a completely useless human who is trying to run a country like many of his failed businesses.
The idiot is the first person to bankrupt a casino three times in a row.

It will be foolish to accept Trump's deal with nothing in return.
He is nothing but a parasite in this scenario.

PHIPEX:
Why was Awolowo imprisoned for coups?

You lose all credibility when you attempt to use a lie to quash another lie.
Now, everything you have written will be thrashed by sane mind because you sound desperate.

Awolowo was tried for treason, not coup plotting.
In fact, no civilian has ever been jailed plotting coup because it makes no sense.
It is soldiers who plot coups and not civilians.

Sowore, Nnamdi Kanu were also charged with treason.
Did they plan any coup?

Treason is not the same thing as coup plotting.

A key demand of the group is the establishment of Sharia Courts of Appeal in all six Yoruba states.

The scholars noted that the Sharia courts would serve as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism for Muslims and would not infringe on the rights of non-Muslims.

Fanatics.
I can see the foolish Muric guy in the picture. I am sure he just formed this mushroom group
to look more influential than he is.
He is on overdrive to recruits religious propagandists for its evil intentions.

They don't really care about the appointments, what they desire is the establishment of Sharia courts.
If they like, they should shout from now till forever, there will be no Sharia courts in SW.
Anybody not satisfied should relocate to Sokoto.

On one hand, they lie that they just want arbitration panels, on the other they want full
Sharia over everybody.

Elrufai wasn't going to support Tinubu in 2023 until Muric man convinced him that
a muslim-muslim ticket is the perfect recipe for jihad and Islamic domination.
It is very hard to tell if the Muric man was motivated more by religious or political reasons.

gidgiddy:
As an Anambra man, I won't say Soludo is not working, but sometimes I wonder if the man has lost his senses. I saw the picture of about 20 armed men, the Governors security outfit 'Agunechemba', arresting a traditional Doctor in Anambra, and wondering what this is about. The man's offence is that he was accused of doing 'money ritual', also called 'Oke-Ite', for people.

Oke-ite involves a person who is seeking financial success going to a traditional medicine Doctor. Usually the person will be asked to bring an earthenware pot in which the Traditional medicine Doctor will put some fetish things in and make incantations. Wether it works is for those who practice traditional religion. However, it does not involve harming anyone, stealing or any crime.

Why is this a problem for Soludo? There are many Pastors out there who are promising prosperity and financial breakthrough. You go to them, they tell you to bring cross, chaplet, olive oil, holy water, and other things Christians use in their Religion. Then they do special prayer for you. Is Soludo going to arrest them too? I can understand if a traditional medicine Doctor is working with criminals, doing charms for them, such person should face the law. But going to arrest a traditional Doctor with 20 armed men just because ge does money ritual is bizarre

Soludo should understand that the constitution recognises freedom of worship. If a person believes that his financial breakthrough is in the traditional way, Christian way, or any other religion, that's their business as long as crime is not involved

Soludo should stop this misplaced priority

Are you certain it is as described and doesn't involve human rituals?
Also, how do you know the native doctors aren't being targeted for collaborating with criminals
rather than just oke-ite practitioners?
Because nobody can be prosecuted for simply praying for prosperity regardless of the method used.
