The average Nigerian Sunni mentality towards terror is pretty straightfoward, if you ask me.
-> don't insult what they hold dear, or else they could be provoked to wreak violence and unimaginable terror<-
They infantilize the perpetrators, indirectly, by shifting the causal blame to the "PROVOCATORS".
(by provocators, they mean ppl who took it upon themselves to audaciously share a counter-opinion to their orthodox beliefs)
In those moments, they invoke “peace” as the highest good—but what they actually demand is silence, specifically the suppression of freedom of speech, a fragile peace that rest not on mutual respect or principled coexistence but on a coerced equilibrium maintained by fear of retaliation.
The Defense of Freedom of Speech, when confronting the consequential repercussions of its misuse, hinges on distinguishing between its immediate appearance or surface-level consequences (phenomena) and its long-term structural necessity (noumena).
While the phenomena of speech(such as, offensive, false, or harmful utterances),which is the very basis for the average Nigerian muslims' antagonistic stance towards it (though such stance changes ever so fickly depending on the share of muslim to non muslim population), may appear to warrant restriction, the noumena (the underlying purpose) of free expression as a necessary condition for truth, autonomy, and intellectual vitality necessitates its protection to prevent the catastrophic consequence of authoritarianism or dogmatism.
Peradventure one thinks this justification still falls short because it presupposes some shared axiomatic commitments, and perhaps a fuller grounding may indeed be required; still, granting it for the sake of argument, freedom of speech must be defended and accorded normative priority over the sensibilities of those who would weaponize offense as a pretext for coercion or violence.
Nigerians must reject this mentality at its root by refusing to treat criticism of Muhammad, or of any religious figure, as a mitigating excuse for violence; the standard must be made absolute and non-negotiable: no belief, no symbol, and no doctrine is entitled to protection by terror, and no citizen should be made to surrender freedom of speech to appease those who would turn outrage into bloodshed.
I watched a video where @Alex_Barbir mentioned my name, saying that I have been talking about him online. Yes, I have called you out. When individuals choose to use their platforms for unguided utterances that risk worsening our already fragile unity and divided society, it becomes necessary for us to speak up and call them out. Public influence should be used to build, not to divide.
At a time like this, anyone who is not contributing positively toward the stability of this country should be questioned and called out. As Nigerians, we all have a responsibility to promote peace, understanding and national development.
Alex, anyone who is not using their influence to help move our country forward must be held accountable in the court of public opinion. So once again, I call on the relevant authorities to take a closer look at your activities.

Quartus Economics: Nigeria’s GDP growing faster than population, signalling early gains against poverty
Nigeria’s economy is showing early signs of a turnaround, with output now expanding faster than population growth — a development that could mark the beginning of sustained poverty reduction if maintained.
This is the central message of a new report released by Quartus Economics, which highlights a sharp rebound in the country’s economic performance in 2025 after a difficult 2024.

Again, it’s NOT labor that creates value. Market value—so to speak, is a result of countervailing market forces.
Was it not Engles that wrote: “what each individual wills is obstructed by everyone else, and what emerges is something that no one willed.”
This dogma needs to die.
It's not unethical because of how they got the money. It's unethical because of the process.
If every employee who worked to publish Harry Porter or Star wars, every single person hired, were paid exactly the worth of their labour, would these people still be billionaires?
Gathering billions is unethical because it requires, at its core, what should have been the labor compensation of so many people being given to one person. It's unethical because making profits at that scale means that so many people's labor was used and paid very little.
If every single person involved in the creation of those books got paid accordingly, without profit of the company and the writer in mind, JK and George wouldn't be billionaires.

70% windfall in JUST FEW WEEKS is simply not enough TO MAKE a significant difference
lol
You intentionally omit important details to run propaganda
>Spending expanded because Lawmakers added projects (including carry-overs from previous years that weren't completed).
>You also forget that Oil money doesn't all stay with the Federal Government: Oil revenue goes into a shared
"Federation Account" and is divided between Federal, States, and Local Governments. The Federal Government gets the biggest share (~52-53%),
>Let’s not forget Actual production is often lower than targets (due to theft, pipeline issues, etc.), so extra price doesn't always translate to full extra cash. The budget was made on an assumption of 1.84 barrel per day
>Some oil is pre-sold or committed (forward sales, refinery deals).
>Recurrent costs which already accounts for half of the 30 trillion revenue keeps increasing (salaries, overheads)
Benchmark for this budget was $65 per barrel of crude. Brent crude is selling today for $110, a 70% windfall. But deficit is widening.

The site was discovered in 1961 by Chief Officer J. Akeredolu during surveys. Major excavations occurred in 1965 under Thurstan Shaw and his team from the University of Ibadan. They uncovered a rich Later Stone Age (LSA) sequence with over half a million stone artifacts (mainly microliths), ground stone axes, pottery (appearing ~6000 BP), and evidence of human occupation from the terminal Pleistocene through the Holocene into recent times.

🇿🇦 South African President Cyril Ramaphosa says that the country will not abandon its DEI policies, known as “Black Economic Empowerment (BEE).”
“Those who say BEE and affirmative action must stop are just dreaming,” he said.
South Africa has strict laws that mandate race-based hiring practices.
A new law called the Employment Equity Amendment Act sets hiring targets for 2025–2030 across 18 economic sectors.
Some workforce targets aim for 90–96% of employees to come from designated groups, which include Black people, women, and people with disabilities (minimum 3%).
That means that if a company has more than 5% white men, it could face penalties of up to 10% of its income.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is why Islam is a death cult. They cannot handle criticism. If you don't hate Muslims and run from them, they'll slit your throat. A blood sucking political ideology for inbreds 😗

wait....
Are you validating the claim that islam is not a religion but an imperialistic ideology that seeks to function like a state?
and that justifies why you are comparing islam to a government?
