I live in Australia.
Burna Boy is the only artist whose event was held in an actual arena. Wizkid and Davido’s events in Australia were in theatres. Burna Boy is the greatest of his generation.
Burna Boy is exactly who he thinks he is.
Can’t wait to witness him tomorrow in Sydney!!
Much of Sub Saharan Africa is still struggling at the bottom of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs teaches us that people must have their basic physiological needs met before they can meaningfully concern themselves with higher level needs.
How do you explain the importance of wildlife conservation to the average Nigerian who is hungry, struggling to survive and has little or no understanding of conservation?

I constantly harp on Nigerians/Africans, who lack minds of their own.
You are a Nigerian. You are not a White Southern Baptist in America.
Your environment is different, your context is different.
Have enough self-awareness to appreciate that fact. Stop acting and sounding, like a fool.

Rep. Nancy Mace: I've been to Israel. I've been to the border where I could touch Libya or be right next to Syria. And I've seen what these terrorists like Hamas do.
Omar Baddar: You've got your borders a little confused.

"Pride comes before a fall." Driven by greed & hubris, and acting in the service of a deceitful regime, you dragged your country into an unlawful and atrocious war against Iran. Your calculations failed, your assumptions collapsed, and your strategic misjudgments became painfully evident - all because you fundamentally misunderstood Iran and, more importantly, the resilience, determination, and national pride of the Iranian nation.
The American people have now sent you a clear message. Yet, if you continue to disregard reality, dismiss the lessons of history, and persist in this dangerous course, the consequences of this grave miscalculation will extend far beyond what you have already witnessed.
So repeat these words until their meaning becomes impossible to ignore. Hear them until you finally understand the reality behind them:
Attacking Iran does not bring victory. It only results in defeat. Iran is not a nation that can be understood through arrogance, intimidated through threats, or brought to its knees through aggression.

"Trump did not lose tonight because of Iran.
Trump lost tonight because he didn’t have the guts to actually win this war."
What the Zionists fail to understand is that you cannot “finish the job” in Iran.
If you want to “finish the job” in Iran, you will trigger a catastrophic global crisis. Iran will retaliate, what do you think, that they will just watch the Americans destroy them and sit there with their arms crossed?
All of West Asia’s infrastructure will be attacked, there will be hundreds of thousands, even millions of refugees, inflation will soar higher than the Himalayas, poverty will skyrocket.
You won’t just lose a midterm election, we’re talking about streets on fire with desperate people ready to overthrow the entire system.
Iran is more powerful than you think, and you still don’t understand.
You keep going, right up to the edge of the cliff, where you will fall, because you refuse to understand geopolitics.
Trump did not lose tonight because of Iran.
Trump lost tonight because he didn’t have the guts to actually win this war. The Powell doctrine says if the United States goes to war, you go to win. Trump chose a lazy half-ass measure and left the IRGC in power.
Even as a rare Democrat that supports the goal of taking out the IRGC, this is what I expected to happen. This is what everyone who sees Trump’s fundamental character flaw clearly expected to happen. He’s not interested in accomplishing things as president. He’s a narcissist that likes to feel powerful but cannot actually govern.
One outcome of Trump’s weakness were sky-high gas prices, which is the main reason he lost tonight.
A different president could’ve won this war. But Republicans are no longer interested in actually governing, just their culture war nonsense.

The "you're not American, stay out of it" argument is ridiculous.
The U.S. has enormous influence over the rest of the world. Its presidents make decisions that affect millions of people who never voted for them.
If American politics can affect my life, I can certainly have an opinion about it.

My prediction?
America might be finally coming out of the cycle of right-wing populism dominance, while Australia is just about to enter into it.
People eventually learn it’s not the answer, but not until the damage is done.
The damage is coming here, just have to ride it out

Conscience or the cost of living, Americans said NO TO WAR, and we endorse this message.
If the US govt betrays their public will to serve international paymasters and blackmailers, it will learn our NO comes with a Nightmare.

In January, as Trump threatened to attack Iran to compel it to capitulate, I told a senior Trump official that Iran won't surrender and that their calculation is that they don't need to win the war against the US; they just need to destroy Trump's presidency.
They just did.
