Love this!! 👍 👍
Richtaiwo:
Everything is tyranny in your eyes. Members of a palace openly desecrated that very institution, and the appropriate sanctions, clearly grounded in long-standing tradition, are now being enforced. Yet here you are, crying “tyranny.”

Out of curiosity, what exactly do you do? It would be helpful to understand the professional background of someone who habitually raises alarm whenever offenders face consequences. Because your reflexive outrage appears less like principled concern and more like a poorly disguised aversion to discipline and order.

I wasn't disturbing myself. I was just stating a fact. People say crime does not pay. But if Tinubu had been an upright citizen and didn't engage in crime, he wouldn't be here

I was told someone is ranting on "lies social" about our President's visit to to the UK. I smell envy...
Afterall, you called us a sh!th○le country but you're still interested in our President's trip that has nothing to do with you. We know you have no regard for us and do not give a bleep about us, but please, stop trying so hard to cause problems for us like you did in !raªŋ. Leave us alone!!!

Update: I learnt the post attributed to he who cannot be named is false. It had better be, because it doesn't concern him.

The King and Queen have arrived, waiting for the President and First Lady.

The 41 gun salutes have started.

The two 2002 Bentley State Limousines brought the guests. Prince William and President Tinubu were in one car and Princess Catherine and Mrs Tinubu were in the other.

The Household Calvary rendered the royal salute (Nigeria We Hail Thee).

The carriage is here. The procession is about to start.

The general officer commanding the Household Division had to help the President and the King down the stairs.

The members of the Nigerian delegation are being shown their carriages.

They are using closed carriages (Gowon, Shagari and Babangida used open top carriages).

The foot guards are waiting in the courtyard of Windsor Castle.

As always happens, Nigerians have organised and gone to line the route.

🤣 I remember that thread in which some Nairalanders were complaining because they played the Star Spangled Banner before Arise O Compatriots. They said it was a disgrace.

The anthem of the guest is always played before the anthem of the host.

The guards are playing Nigeria We Hail Thee before God Save The King.

I posted a video of a sniper on the roof of a building along the route of the royal procession, but the bot banned me.

PoliticsRe: "I Collected Tinubu's Food Boxes — But I Will NEVER Vote For Him!"(photos,video) by xmasgift: 6:16pm On Mar 16
Ofcours, she doesn’t have to vote for him. That is her own palliative, let her eat and be merry.
Kingsley34:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RH1wb-L7z1I&pp=ygUnSG93IGEgTmlnZXJpYSBjb2xsZWN0ZWQgVGludWJ1IGZvb2QgYm94

A Nigerian woman goes viral after unboxing the food palliative boxes she received — reportedly linked to President Bola Tinubu and APC supporters. In the clip, she boldly declares:
“I have collected Tinubu’s boxes of gifts. Let me show you what’s inside. I will eat it, but I will still not vote for him. It’s my money. I am paying taxes. He cannot use this to take away the future of my children.”
Watch as she opens the branded cartons to reveal everyday staples: bags of rice, vegetable oil, noodles (Golden Penny brand spotted), and other basic items distributed as "Renewed Hope" relief amid Nigeria's ongoing economic hardship.
This moment perfectly captures the current mood — many Nigerians are accepting short-term handouts (seen as their own tax money returned) while refusing to let it sway their vote in the upcoming elections. Is this smart resistance or just survival? Comments are divided: some call it "chop but no sell your future," others slam it as disguised vote-buying.

What do you think — would you collect it and still vote your conscience? Drop your take below

If the aim was to destroy iran as a nation it would have been done, they are targeting specific targets, which takes time to do, if the aim was to obliterate Iran and cause panic in Iran by striking random targets, there won't be an Iran today. Civilised countries act responsibly, it is a shame that you think targeting hotels in Dubai and targeting cargo ships is winning for Iran...this is terrorists tactics, spreading fear to cajole people to find solutions for problems you caused.

You people are twisted, and need to get your brains back because you live in delusion... how can Iran be winning when they are taking out all their leaders...check the score board.

Stop supporting distortions to world economy, through indiscriminate attacks on ships owned by nations you are not at war with...it is terrorists acts.

Happy? Where is the joy in all of this? Where did you see excitement in my writeup? I know you are pained because your expectation was dashed. Yes, this is what happens in war and people like us would rather clamour for negotiations ( which were ongoing before the attack) than war. In battle, it could swing either way. Even those who are not involved would collect. Never underestimate your opponent. That is a grave mistake people make.
I would just advise you to calm down make you no go crase run enter market.
You'll be alright...or not...

Rabid head over a hundred top members of the regime killed. The aim is not to destroy the country but to kill the Islamist terrorists regime. Iran is shameless, attacking your Arab neighbours residential buildings. I thought they were strong, just noisy rabid heads like all of your kind.

I wonder what you people are happy about, Iran attacking shipping lines and distorting world trade is a terrorist act, it affects the whole world not just America...being happy over this is same thing as being happy bokoharam is destroying telecommunications infrastructure...you people need to wake up, I don't see the sense in being happy over disruptions in world economy.

Keep making yourself happy.
In conflict, you determine what you do, it's not your call to decide how your opponent reacts when you attack them. You can't slap someone and still think you can decide how they cry. You might have military might but lack a winning strategy. They really underestimated these people. The worst person to pick a fight with is someone who has been stretched thing through prolonged hardship (sanctions). That would be a fight to finish because they've seen it all. Nothing you can use to scare or threaten them anymore.
Same way hissrel should thank the US for backing them otherwise, they would have been history.

Not military help, to secure the strait of Hormuz from rabid heads who can't fight but want to destroy the world economy. Iran regime is lazy and weak, it only has terrorists tactics, this is what it is using.

Imagine if US and Israel are like Iran, the entire Tehran would have been rubbles by now. Useless lazy terrorists nation, they should thank God for Russia helping them with technology.

Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Warns NATO Faces Bad Future If Allies Fail To Help Open Up Hormuz Strait by xmasgift: 6:54am On Mar 16
Nobody is sneering at anyone. Injustice is injustice regardless of who is involved. "Do not let your dislike of a people cause you to be unjust" The unprovoked attack was a show of power. It was unnecessary to launch a calculated attack WHEN NEGOTIATIONS WERE ONGOING. This exact act is what breeds resentment from the victims for generations to come. Then you'll call them "terrorists" when they retaliate in their own way. They weren’t in your way, they were battling decades long sanctions with a fragile economy but were still pushing, because these people are built with steel...they're unimaginably resilient and understandably so.
Leave people's countries alone and see peace reign. When you keep going to people's lands to terrorize them, destroy their infrastructure, steal their resources, ofcourse you know you can't sleep peacefully afterwards.

So much for democracy! See what the leader of "saner climes is saying about gagging the media". Ogbeni rest! No one manipulates information more than the west, but because the reality staring you in the face is far from your expectations, you're trying so hard to save face. What power does Iran have over the mainstream media? None! Zero! Zilch! Nada! They have control only over their own media and you know this. Na you and your padi hissrel dey control global media.
However, I agree with him that media houses and independent reporters should be held liable for treason when they report false, inciting news that could heat up the polity. Well, anyone who agrees with him on this cannot claim to want something different when it comes to the Nigerian media. What is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander.

shineeye1:
Sharia and it's government can be defined simply as the forfeiture of civil liberty and the wilful embrace of coercion. Even when you are ruled by repressive and oppressive tyrants, you must remain submissive. That religion does not prosper by freedom anywhere in the world. They prosper by jihad. Ironically, the jihadists are the most vile and corrupt species of humans you can find on earth. Letting people freely choose what they are individually convinced of is a cardinal taboo of that sect.

I apologise for my second sentence. I didnt know your statement was only based on the clip. However, Indians are very, very racist AND that country is very unsafe. You may wish to read up about that country.

I'm looking at something koro koro with my own two eyes and you're talking of reading. Do you see any of these people even seem to notice that this guy is black? Do u detect any sense of superiority whatsoever. But it may be so only in that area - India being a very vast country

Iran is not planning to win the war with US but to make the the cost of US winning the very expensive such that the America along with American allies' economy will think twice before attempting such a foolish thing in future.
