It does matter who wins the next election, Buhari has wrecked Nigeria almost beyond redemption

These clueless guys should be kicked out of office already.

The really issue here is that one will think that Nigerians have learnt something in the past 7+ years but they will end making worse mistakes at the polls in 2023 using their nepotic and tribal brains

The Oil and Gas IOCs are leaving Nigeria. Oil production is dropping significantly and 93% of the revenue is being used to service debt.

I pity whoever is taking over from Buhari.

If Nigerians are serious about salvaging Nigeria and reducing the suffering and doom.... they will go cap in hand begging for a Peter Obi presidency.

But knowing Nigerians properly, they will sacrifice this opportunity on the alter of tribalism and nepotism.

The scums of the earth were dumped in this geographical location.

Nigeria is doomed because of the followers and not the leaders. One would think that Nigerians have suffered enough to clamour for true change but nepotism and tribalism will make them vote someone worse than Buhari

Then u are a liar.
Even the blacks in America are not treated equally.
Racism has become a trend in America since 2019 and has increasingly become a norm. There is structural racism in America as it affects the kind of job u get depending in the neighbourhood u found yourself.
In fact,racism may not be expressed verbally but affects u indirectly or u think because Obama became President of America therefore,there is no racism. Why do they have white Supremacists and all whats not?
White police officers are feared most in America by blacks because they are likely to shoot u before knowing your identity.
Read about Diallo who shot was 32 times by the America police all because he wanted to bring out his I.D card for identification before two white police officers shot him non stop.
That your sister that lives in the US should be another reason why u should advice her to be careful. There is more racism in the US than in Canada or even in Brazil .

The racism in the West pales into insignificance when compared to the tribalism and nepotism in Nigeria.

Imagine before you rent a house, before you buy a land, before you get a job...... you get asked which state you are from.

Infact tribalism and nepotism made Buhari president and will make someone worse than him the next president.

The racism card in the West that you guys fling in defence to no migration is stale and you can see it that folks ae fleeing Nigeria irrespective

Our people are treated with disdain because a lot of them go to commit crimes.

Let assume that your divide Nigeria.

You will realise that after some years the oduduwa or biafra Nation will inherit the stigma as long as it is the same people that immigrate from there.

Also nobody likes uncontrolled immigration.
Nigerians immigrate anyhow.

Someone earning millions as salary in shell Nigeria is immigrating.
Why?

The Immigration is too much even when It is unnecessary.

It's downgrading the passport.

Can't you see that the government sponsored campaign to limit immigration ain't working?

How on earth will you blame a shell guy earning millions from migrating when they have lost colleagues to kidnappers in the niger delta and the ones that made it out lost their life savings.

When you make serious money is Nigeria and your car gets spoilt on a lagos road at night, you will understand that your life is worth less than the actual amount in your pocket at that given time.

Some people are no so hung up on money, they just want sanity and functional lives.

Nigeria is gone..... you can't preach against it, people can see and feel it themselves.

Forget about PVC, Buhari knows who is replacing him and it's not Tinubu.

Tinubu is too desperate for the office. His friends and foes are worried about a Tinubu with presidential powers. He will colonise Nigeria like he had maintained stronghold in Lagos dictating who becomes governor and counsellor.... that ain't good for democracy.

No matter what side you choose, there's an 89% chance this thing will lead to nuclear warfare where the only people sure of survival will be these same western leaders due to their bunkers (they might even be conducting the war from there this minute). The only chance for peace now is the Ukranian President saying he wants to be neutral for the sake of his people which won't happen because of Biden who's egging him on

There will be no nuclear warfare...... even a mad Putin will not attempt a mutually assured destruction.

Russia will take over Ukraine and Zelensky will take off

Putin will install a puppet president

Rebel groups will rise in Ukraine against the puppet and NATO/ US will fund them

Russia's economy will be in utter ruins

An anti-Putin revolution will engulf Russia and Putin will be ousted

These sanctions against Russia will remain as long as Putin is in place irrespective of the state of the war

The Ukrainian puppet will be ousted by the rebel groups and the general Ukrainan population

The west will attempt to use the Ukrainian rebel group to inflict some harm on Russian homeland

A lot of Ukrainans will die
This is the end for Putin

All this gra gra by western interests. When companies like sinopec and petrobras start stepping in to inherit these "spoils" at little or no cost, you would then start seeing moral blackmail and unfounded litigation by these western companies and their proxies

You can't eat your cake and have it. Throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Russia economically is not a good idea, you don't test the depth of a lake with two legs especially given that they can do little or nothing militarily against Russia.

You see China as a strategic threat that needs to be slowed down yet You just guaranteed China's energy needs by sending the second largest oil producer to be more alighed with China. Thus you can't blackmail China by threatening its energy supply anymore by military build ups on the South China sea.

Let's not even talk about how Europe's energy security is in jeopardy. Who will meet the shortfall. And Europe is blindly following America all over an obsolete cold war relic called NATO. Talk about strategic blunder

This strategy of yours is already too late in the game. While Russia might still be fighting the military war, they already lost the economic battle.

Its a world of interest... Sinopec pr Petrobras ain't doing nothing if there are no economic gains

TINUBU DID NOT MAKE THEM, HE EXPLOITED THEM

By Ayo Turton

What human capital has Tinubu developed gan an? I am sick and tired of hearing this argument.

Let's break this down. At best, Tinubu's relationship with these guys has been symbiotic in the best scenario for him.

Was it Tinubu that made Osinbajo the Professor he is, or Tinubu needed his brain to run his government?

When he got jammed up with Obasanjo, it was Osinbajo that came up with a legal solution for him and they won serially in courts.

For your information, Tinubu was against his becoming the VP. He reluctantly agreed when he had no choice.

Was it Tinubu that made Fashola Senior Advocate of Nigeria?

He only tapped into Fashola's brain to make his government look good. The benefit was mutual. The moment Fashola's profile started rising above his own as Governor, he tried to stop him from getting a second term. What they play now is a cat and mouse game. The relationship has never been the same.

Ambode was the Chief Accountant of Lagos State that came up with the plan to raise the State IGR that they are enjoying today. Now they are no longer friends. He threw him under the bus.

Fayemi was one of those eggheads that fought with NADECO during Abacha infamous days. Tinubu only occasionally supplied funding.

The moment the Northerners suggested his name as a running mate to whoever emerges as President from the North, at the early stage of forming APC, Tinubu went against him. The relationship has gone down south since then.

Mamora is a suave and an urbane gentleman and a Medical Doctor to boot. He was simply one of the best Senators of his time. The moment his profile started rising in Abuja, with the potential to overshadow the landlord of Lagos, the ticket was taken from him by Tinubu and given to his wife.

Aregbesola was the most loyal to Tinubu of all those followers; now, the relationship has gone south.

Therefore, he uses these people as tools rather than their destiny helper.

The moment their profiles started to rise, he would attempt to stop them. He thinks he is the one to determine how far destiny can carry them.

This is a guy who destroyed all the powers that made him from AD days.

I am sick and tired of the platitude.

Buhari that completely shut Tinubu out of his governance for 7 years is unlikely to hand over to him.

What about supporting a younger Osinbajo or Fashola for the position if he is altruistic in growing talents?

No matter what you do, do not consider divorce yet if at all ..... if he is not being physical with you. Try to save your family. What you are currently facing pales to insignificance compared to what single mom's and their kids face here in canada.

I have seen kids growing without their fathers becoming societal wrecks
I have seen single moms being passed around for sex by married and single men without any commitments
Single black women hardly get attention here much more single mums. I have seen single mums hustle for male attention in same city where their divorced husbands have remarried.

They encourage you to divorce but abandon you after divorce. Has anybody bothered to check the fate of these divorced women 2 or 3 yrs after?

Feel free to research the fate of Nigerian single mums from calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, Vancouver, BC etc ...... bitter lifes with lots of regret

Do everything to save your family.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Tuchel Drops Lukaku For Liverpool Game by ratiken(m): 4:12pm On Jan 02, 2022
Smart strategy by Inter and Lukaku. This has been part of the plan.

Inter gets almost 100M for Lukaku, Lukaku messes things up with Chelsea in first season and he is sold back to Inter at less than 30M after one season.

Lukaku pockets 15M for a scam well done, Inter smiles home with Lukaku and the balance funds

Blakjewelry:

Your anology is lame, it should be the Christian in fact I prefer the word a religious person that is standing at the other side of the door an can't find the handle. Most of us was once religious before we decided to seek for greater truth so we are the future and you guys living in the past, we have tasted both world, whereas you guys are scared to leave confort zone.

Spot on. The focus for any normal person of interest should be spirituality and not religion.

Christianity, Islam, Buddha, African traditionalist were are all means societies of the past exercised their spiritual energies in line with their local customs and norms.

None is superior to the other..... We as humans can never decipher all the levels and aspects of the force behind creation but can aspire to higher levels of spirituality to better ourselves and humanity

Per Christian religion, all my fore fathers are in hell because they did not accept a Jesus they did not know about?....... nawa ooo
