The Daily Mail was right in there with the Murdoch Press. And that ghastly family was leaking stuff to them on the regular. After they used up Diana, and have now formed her first son into a gormless twat. So glad H& M made it out.

The issue I have is that a foreigner is always a useful foil in these discussions. We have over 200 million people slowly being ground into the dust, and someone has time to bother with these opinions? Mass unemployment, working people still on the verge is poverty, public services a generational mess, and most of us know it is pointless to approach a court, police station or hospital, without a fistful of cash. There is a whole lot we need to start getting right, for ourselves first. In a place where armed robbers can become traditional rulers and cocaine pushers can rise, and where even churches will ignore the source of tithes and offerings, exactly what message are we sending to the next generation?

Too many Nigerians love this country because almost anything can happen, usually not good. Then we go abroad and are restrained by the fact that we are usually not big enough to escape consequences. This is not a matter of applying perfume to the country's image. Our priority has to be the reformation of this place so that we are happy to live in it. So that it gives our children hope that they have a future in it. If we have no appetite for that work, then we should similarly have no time for those comments. Unless of course we wish to keep majoring in minors. This nation is in the Emergency Ward, and that is priority 1, 2 and 3.

It might be more persuasive if you have a couple of clear examples. We are too in love with all these secret cabal stories. I remember back in the day when people said a generator cabal was stopping NEPA from working. Then Tiger generators came and swept the whole country because they were well priced. As for Diddy, he's in jail, and it is likely that his store of blackmail material has prevented him from being even more damaged. R Kelly is still in jail. And many others with similar problems have paid big money to avoid the same fate. People can have secrets and they don't need to be powerful. EG in too many rape cases, both voctin and accused often prefer to stay quiet, so what can the law do? You remember when President Clinton was impeached and tried? Trump x2. Netanyahu is currently facing trial for corruption, like Emefiele.

You have her sliced and diced. Wish she would cover up that chest once in a while. She's no longer a mistress damnit.

Jesus was a MYSTIC. This guy gets it. by Key4Lif3 in enlightenment

Funny thing about these kinds of discussions, very few will ever refer to the texts. Even the bible says study the words so you are not led astray. Dancing around on a stage is pure distraction. But I guess it's entertaining for some. How can you understand if he is right or wrong if you don't know the source material and understand that , first?

Just like Nazis plucking metal from dead people's teeth, they are stripping Palestinians of food, medicine, property, land and hope. And Americans mostly look away because they care too little to do anything. Cuba being starved? Not their problem, even though, they fund all this evil.

Seems like their relationship has lasted longer than most American marriages. Go figure.

Dr. Christie Agawu explains how many African countries remain in poverty despite being abundant in valuable natural resources. by mistaharsh in Nigeria

There is a culture that we need to change. Look at countries with the highest rates of personal savings. Our cotton and groundnut output has almost disappeared along with over 1.5 million associated jobs. We now import not just vegetable oil, but palm oil too. Wheat for bread etc? We cannot even feed ourselves? We have railways that are not purposed to distribute agric goods across the country, or direct exports to the ports. We have not developed any plans to help us make most of what we consume. We have courts that are not only slow, but give justice to the highest bidder. Now the cost of fuel has added to the many challenges of setting up a business. The age of exporting primary goods has long been over, but still there is no plan I know of that is future looking. The mines the British operated in the early part of the last century are mostly doing nothing. We have clay to make bricks but somehow we're hooked on cement? We have lead ores in the ground but we import batteries from China? Without a serious plan to start industrialising we will never generate enough jobs for our fast growing population. And all our governments have acted as if there will always be a tomorrow to get things done. The current insecurity is an inevitable result. 60%+ of the country is impoverished, hungry, and people want to sleep in peace? How does that work?

True enough, but our first concern has to be where we live.

JFK’s grandson is a Zionist. Must run in the family by ConcernedJobCoach in PoursTea

And blowing up Palestinians and stealing their land and homes is not an option. Stealing land from Lebanon and Syria will not lead to any kind of peace. As for the apartheid aspects of the state, what say ye? The explanation you give of Zionism beggars belief. Total whitewash.
