Re: Corruption in Nigeria

There is a great deal of corruption in Nigeria, no doubt about it but most of the corruption is fueled by the political elites who government and governance as a perfect opportunity for enrichment. This is made worst by the absence of vigorous prosecution of those who engage in it. And efforts to br...

Re: Vault 7

There is nothing so far revealed by Wikileaks regarding Vault 7 that I was not aware of its existence 10 years ago. After 9-11, there was an escalation in ways that the government collected intelligence information both domestically and externally.

Re: The attempted Coup d'etat against Trump continues

Trump's White House is denying that Trump was the target of any wire tapping. This denial nullifies Trump's earlier claim on twitter that Obama had his tower wire tapped. It also nullifies all the conspiracy idiots on this board who had been screaming themselves hoarse on how Obama, the DOJ and the ...

Re: Lessons from Libya

It is fiction to argue or even imagine that NATO's intervention in Libya in 2011 was motivated by a humanitarian response. Far from it. Libya had to be broken up and punished by vested interests like the Wahabists in Saudi Arabia, the corrupt political class in the Gulf States, the corruption of Sar...

Thanks Azari for your kind words. No doubt that the ship of state is in a great distress. And I don't know if the present political leadership is capable of sorting things out. Neither was Obama although he gave his best.
