How is Nigeria doing better than any of those countries? Btw, Google how much fuel costs in Iran and Venezuela. Checkout worldclass infrastructure in those countries. Bros, dont allow propaganda by the west hoodwink you. Peace.
Fuel is your only problem?
If your family member committed a crime in North Korea you and your parents will be sent to jail or killed


If your sister came out with no headscarf in Iran she could go to jail or end up raped and killed


You can’t get a job to buy 3 square meals in Venezuela today


Fuel is your only problem? Then your own problem is small

I beg make we hear word! Now that the country isn't under sanctions, what progress is it making. In fact, countries under Western sanctions turn inwards and also partner with friendly nations and are better off.
Venezuela?
Iran?
North Korea?

Which country under sanctions is doing better?

Blackman's mental subjugation to western dominance is terrible and horrible.
What makes Assad dictator in your eyes?, because the West called him a dictator you echoes it, now that this group they previously called terrorists are in power and doing the bidding of the West they will rechristen them freedom fighters and characters like you will change alongside the western narrative to call them freedom fighters as well.

May God make the blackman truly free from mental slavery and servitude
The mistake you’re making is assuming I quoted the UK because of skin color, not the least. It’s the quality of education. The universities of Ibadan, UNN and ABU zaria used to have world class education in Nigeria back in the days. Doctors came from London to do residency in Ibadan.

We graduated long ago and had white students in our schools who were paying international tuition just to get the quality of education Nigeria had. Maybe you graduated recently and have that inferior mentality, most of us don’t.

Plus I live abroad and have seen shades of white peope, including country red necks who can barely speak audible English.

Assad became a doctor in the 80’s and was doing his residency in the 90’s in the UK. Most universities at that time had good quality and wasn’t the money grab the UK has become now.

Lastly Assad’s wife is not white. She’s Syrian but born in the UK with top school education from King’s collage and was even admitted to Harvard. She was an investment banker. So they were both professionals.

Stop assuming things you’re not sure of, it’s a sin in many religions. Ask questions when you’re confused.

I didn't compare dictatorship with monarchy.

I said if it's about the sit-tight thingy, that's the fact that his family has been ruling for 50 years, how about Saudi where the MBS family rules since the inception of the state?

I will ask again, what's your definition of a dictator?

Gaddafi was called a dictator, but do you know Libya under Gaddafi was far better than many western countries with democracy?

The thing is, if you are not with the West, they will call you a bad name and hang you. If you are a yes sir man to them, they will like you and exploit you.

Look at Venezuela, Chavez, a great guy, they killed him. They want to do the same to Nicholas but they haven't succeeded yet, they call him a dictator just so they can hang him. Late Hugo Chavez and Maduro made the country a better place, but look at it today, a poor country.
Assad didn’t win a fairly laid out elections. Infact he was too young to contest. They had to change the country’s constitution just to allow one man become president and adjust it to his age then.

Venezuelan inflation and poverty is exponential compared to Nigeria, yet they have so much oil.

It has made them one of the countries with very high rates of prostitution, gang activity, forced migration and hunger in South America

Gadafi might have given his country flexibility benefits but they lacked freedom of speech and were killed off a whim for mere criticism

You ruler shoulder be as rich as the country itself. That’s an anomaly. I’m not justifying deposing him. But he triggered it. When his people raised a protest against him him sent his soldiers to kill people off.

Assad was a drug dealing president that hooked so many Arabs to captagon, killed his own people up to half a million

No Nigerian President will be allowed to go that far before he is killed off. He can’t even try it

That’s the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship

Saudi Arabi is a monarchy, Syria is not
The Al Saud’s are credited with founding the modern Saudi, hence the country even bearing their name

What's your definition of a dictator?

I know a lot of dictators whose rule were far better than the democratic leaders in so many state, beginning with your country Nigeria.

If you want to call them sit-tight leaders, please when will Saudi hold an election for the peoples will to count? When will the king of England allow another kindred or family rule the kingdom?
You are comparing a dictatorship with monarchy

Monarchs have also been deposed when then turned dictators whether it be in the French, American or Russian revolutions


Nigeria is a captured state with some form of democracy

No matter how bad Buhari and Tinubu are, some people actually wanted them to rule and voted for them

In order to rig a system you need a very large amount of votes already in your favour for it to be easier to rig

I guess he had course-mates while in Sandhurst. His profile does not suggest he could have helped anyone to climb the ladder.
His course mates were British
We are talking independence era here
They were the first set of officers
He helped Igbos, Yoruba’s and other tribes
It was because he helped igbos climb that people were very angry when they saw it as an Igbo coup by Nzeogu and co
When Ironsi didn’t punish Nzeogu, Ironsi too was taken out by TY Danjuma and co

They killed the prime minister tafawa balewa, (northerner) and left Azikiwe (igbo)

They killed the northern premier Ahmadu Bello (northerner) with his wife, to add insult to injury, and left the Igbo southern premier Michael Okpara

They killed northern senior officers like Maimalari and left the rest of the Igbo officers like Ojukwu who was in Kano and in the middle of northerners but no body in the north touched him

Proverbs 31 says this about a virtuous woman


10 A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still night;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her female servants.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

TravelRe: Should I Relocate Back To My Village Or Stay In Lagos? by Yankee101:
You can move to a nearby state like Ogun and live in Abeokuta. This will give you a short driving distance access to Lagos. You’ll get a bit of quiet in places like the GRA
Its also much cheaper than Lagos

You’re from which state and what’s the village like you want to move to? Does it have internet and good hospitals and an airport nearby?
