overhypedsteve: Appealing to authority that can or cannot be proved is the oldest trick in the book when debating online. That you studied peacekeeping and diplomacy is a useless statement, unless you want us to take what you say as gospel truth. You are simply another Agaugust with his "I live in the US lines" Your use of animated vocabulary tells me that you never set foot in any university and are over-compensating Naija style. Scholars can never have a diplomatic quest. You are a joke. We are THE SECOND LARGEST home of diplomatic missions in the world. THEY.COME.TO.US. Oh, by the way, it is Nigerians themselves who sold pieces of their economy to South Africans. That's diplomacy paying off "real guuuurd" 3 Likes |

ThaVluit:an authority can be or cannot be proved to the extent of your ignorance,laziness or industry( in the case of the former). a simple research on the basics of international relation would teach you all you need to know get the book by Harold Nicholson "Diplomacy" that should be a start for you. Now nobody asked you if your nation has the most missions in the planet, all we re saying is that a southafrican victory in the security council membership race is a failure for Africa as southafrica does not represent the African struggles anymore. Southafrica is what happened when a bunch of uncivilized bushmen ( san, khoikhoi and bantu) failed to protect their territory from white settlers in the 17 century 2 Likes |

overhypedsteve: There is no master of deplomacy, many do it without having perused library. Thabo Mbeki is regarded as the expert in it, but has never specialised on it in terms of his academic achievements. Meanwhile, Africa all lost their land to colonists except Ethiopia. The fact that you failed to acknowledge that, it gives me doubts to finally conclude that you are just claiming to be international relation university student. |

Msauza:i think your president should be giving the Guinness world record for the lowest zulu style nod ever. You don't go to an institute of international relation to study zulu nods, we study the history of inter group relations in precolonial Africa, politics and history of precolonial Africa. The only instance where any student may be compelled to study such culture is when it is of a political significance, take for example the uthman Dan fodio jihad and the advent of Islam in westafrica, a student of international relation or international history does not just go about studying how southafrican precolonial slaves relate with their masters. 1 Like |

overhypedsteve: Then, in that regard I would suggest that Nigeria's universities are of a low standard when it comes to the quality of university education. Zulu culture which is one of the most important in the history of Africans in general forms the integral part in the study of African history. There is nowhere you can ever study African politics and history and you do not come across such a fine history. 2 Likes |
