It’s how you know he can truly do this

[Ilia Topuria @Topuriailia]

You should’ve kept your father out of this.

He was the one calling me a short guy and saying you’d smash me, all while holding a beer in his hand.

Then you started talking about my divorce and telling the world you wouldn’t want to be my roommate.

Idiot.

First, we’re fighting, not dating.

Second, I’m not looking for a roommate.

When I put you to sleep and you’re lying there next to the rose, I’ll look at your father and ask him one simple question:

Who’s the short one now?

I’m gonna break you Justin.

Youre right and I'll tell you why because I can.

Given the circumstances of his marriage, they expect him to be miserable - as per Nollywood.

They hate that he seemed to cover all bases - prenup, marriage, divorce + custody, removal of his ex as dependant, exoneration from DV claims and he is unapologetically loud.

They don't care about whatever circumstances surrounded the marriage or dissolution just hate the fact that "a cheating gurl took an L".

They hate that they can't troll him for his looks, career, pockets or his ability to pull 10s as he pleases + he is young. So why not zoom in, on his nostrils.

Was he doing too much publicly at some point? Relatively yes.

But I can rationally charge it to two possible factors:

1. He was genuinely also deeply affected by the way the marriage turned out & the repeated public crashout + need for some kind of validation was a necessary step to putting it behind,

2. When a situation puts you on the spotlight for the very first time, a lot of people don't know how to leverage on the overwhelming first round of applause & hang it there - they stretch it until the balance tilts.

These are my honest assessments.

Do these assessments justify the vitriol he's getting from women currently? No.

He seems to be doing well and they hate his guts.

The honest-to-god truth might be that - he might not be doing that well emotionally but he has refused to allow weakness be his public identity and doesn't conform to their definition of "humble".

American media seem increasingly obsessed with Silicon Valley escorts.

Women are building groundbreaking AI technologies, yet they rarely receive the same level of coverage. Meanwhile, escorts are making the cover stories of major media outlets.

Women are more than sex objects, and the media should do a better job of highlighting their achievements.

[Lanre @lanreshobs]

What an insane lineup 😂

[Seyram @__theSeyram]

They’ve been trying to recreate the Argentina aura shots since Qatar 2022 lmao 😂😂😂😂

[Lanre @lanreshobs]

Nonsense talk. Twitter people and always talking like they know all till you check their own lives

[Neo Officiall @neo_officialll]

Until you fix the actual problem which is you and your taste in women, whatever is happening to you will keep happening.

This one self is not different. Una still dy honeymoon phase, she will still manifest as soon as she smells your weakness.

The women are not the problem.

[Lanre @lanreshobs]

I’m sorry for you

He’s dating Kim Kardashian, who has an estimated net worth of nearly $2 billion. He's worth nearly $500 million and lives in Monaco to avoid paying taxes in the UK.

Remarkable lack of self-awareness.

A new video reportedly released by the terrór!sts today in which The Principal, Mrs Alamu stated that the reports going round that the terror!sts are asking for the implementation of the sharia law is totally false. They only want their detained members to be released.

Seeing this woman in this situation breaks my heart every single time. What sort of country is this?!!

@BelloZech Definitely a very silly decision to demolish the building but let’s wait for further information on it before concluding

BREAKING NEWS: Nigerian Households face more hardship as cooking gas price hits N2,400 per kg

Firstly, Ethiopia is under US sanctions while Vietnam is not. And speaking of former French colonies, Haiti was the first to get independence (1804) and is still one of the poorest countries in the world because of the debt they had to take on to gain independence (it took them until 1947 to fully repay it!). Whereas, New Caledonia is still a French colony and is neither rich nor poor.

"If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor..."

This line completely ignores the European powers' (and US) post-colonial control over Africa. Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the DRC, was tortured and killed by Belgium and the US for being a nationalist. His body was dissolved in acid so he wouldn't become a martyr. His legacy is largely unknown even within the continent. Several other such "lessons" were meted out. Google Thomas Sankara (Burkina Faso) and Sylvanus Olympio (Togo).

Once you set the example, you gain obedience. The VietCong, on the other hand, didn't surrender even though 3 million Vietnamese died during the war, and several thousand more continue to die to this day (!) from Agent Orange exposure.

As for former French colonies in Africa, France still controls their currency and holds their central bank reserves in France. As Rothschild purportedly said, "permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws."

Third, the borders in Africa were drawn in such a way that conflict was inevitable. At the Berlin Conference in 1884-85, the European powers simply carved up the continent by drawing straight line borders. African leaders were conspicuous only by their absence at this historic event which shaped the next century. This is why Cameroon, a French-speaking country, has a minority English-speaking territory, ensuring it remains destabilized. Likewise for West Asia/the Middle East, where the Sykes-Picot legacy lives on.

@magattew conflates formal colonial rule with colonial control. Vietnam managed to fully kick out both France and the US, reunified the North and the South, and kept its sovereignty. All African leaders who attempted the same have been systematically eliminated (see Muammar Gaddafi, Libya's divisive leader, for a recent example), ensuring Africa forever bears the open wounds of its colonial legacy.

But Ms. Wade is right on one thing: Vietnam owes its prosperity to overcoming colonial rule. Maybe Africa can become prosperous if Africans do the same.
