DAVIDO/SHAMBLE ECONOMY: Reno Omokri Can't Be Always Right, We Don't Know Who's Fighting War Between Russia, Nigeria - Abioye Tosin Lawrence

......If UK Appends Signature For New General Election, 'How Bigger Is Nigeria? It's disheartening to see folk like Reno Omkri attack Davido over his latest outburst on Nigeria and its ailing economy. If we compare someone who body-shamed President Tinubu and assaulted him by organizing a demonstration in the diaspora during the general elections, it has the potential to dissuade investors from doing business with the country. Nobody is more Nigerian than hip-hop musician Davido Adeleke (Davido), who unveiled the true X-ray of the country during a time when people were going through a lot. Imagine the situation of the country's economy and telling someone that the United Kingdom, which held elections a few months ago, has collected over two million signatures to have new elections, implying that Prime Minister Kier Starmer has broken his campaign promises. There's a saying that we don't have to be upset at the mirror since we look so terrible. Reno was one of...

WWW111: Ukraine Fired U.S.-Made Ballistic Missiles Into Russia

   Early yesterday morning, Ukraine’s military launched a volley U.S.-made ballistic missiles into Russia for the first time. The attack came on the 1,000th day of the war and less than a week after President Biden gave the Ukrainians permission to do so in a major shift of American policy. The strike targeted an ammunition depot in the Bryansk region of southwestern Russia, causing explosions, Ukrainian officials said. Russian officials claimed to have shot down five of the six missiles. The use of long-range American weapons was a show of force that demonstrated how continued Western support could help Ukraine more easily degrade Russian forces. The attack occured on the same day Vladimir Putin lowered Russia's threshold for the use of nuclear weapons. He declared that Russia could use nuclear weapons if its sovereignty is threatened, even against a nonnuclear state so long as that state is backed by a nuclear power. The timing of the long-planned move was clearly meant to s...

Trump To Zelensky: Your Country Must Prioritize Peace With Russ!a Over Reclaiming Lost Territories

  Donald Trump has advised Volodymyr Zelensky that Ukr*ine should focus on achieving peace with Russ!a rather than trying to reclaim lost territories.  This approach implies that all the  territories Russ!a has seized will likely remain under Russ!an control, making prompt negotiations crucial. Delaying talks risks further territorial losses. Trump's position contrasts with that of other western leaders, who had repeatedly rejected the initial peace proposals.  The situation remains complex and sensitive, with ongoing conflicts and diplomatic tensions but one thing is sure, the conflict between Ukr*ine and Russ!a will soon come to an end.

There's Long Queue In APC, PDP, Labour That Last For Century - Abioye Lawrence Tosin

   The tirade of Muhammadu Buhari, the immediate past president, in which he claimed that "Nigerian Youths Are Lazy" was analogous to an examiner instructing students on how to pass an exam, and many people ignored it because they did not understand how the process of becoming a leader works. Due to their increased laziness, the younger generation does not have a physical government, political structure, organization, or right-wing groups. This generation does nothing, but they have high expectations of their leaders. I have no regard for any criticism I might receive as a result of this article. However, if you ask any Nigerian, they will inform you of the current number of political parties. The question is: The Rulling All Progressives Congress (APC), People's Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LB), and other parties that are currently in power. I believe that it is a curse to protest in the streets, which typically take precedence when a president is elected. Despi...
