Nigerian solders' saluting of Captain Traore was appropriate since he is a Head of state

100% endorsed, CY! 

There was a time when these forums were filled with Nigerians/Africans of sound education and unqualified intellectual excellence, unfortunately those days are gone and we are now left with semi-literate bums like the two Yoruba wannabe Kayode Adebammuọjọ of Ukwuani savagery, and the pirate of Docklands' Femi Olajide of Ishan thievery, two semi-literate punks who offend folks' sensibilities with their steady exhibition of untidy thinking processes. The only saving grace is that this is likely the last year of these forums, less than 10 people actively participate in them these days, so by 2026 its existence shall cease and one will no longer tolerate the idiocy of these accursed simpletons and tribalists.

I bet you that they won't answer any of the questions you posed: because they are thoughtless, dishonest, and stupid.  The most immature of the two, thieving Femi Olajide, is so dishonest and shameless that being a thief even edifies him. He continues to lie and deny that Nigeria apologized to Burkina Faso, and that Nigeria's surrendered soldiers saluted Captain Traore, even though the video of the event and the full speech of Nigeria's Foreign Minister is all over the internet. If this Femi Olajide had any brains or maturity, he would have corrected me that Nigerian solders' saluting of Captain Traore was appropriate since he is a Head of state, irrespective of his military rank. 

It had to take the expertise of General Williams for these idiots to understand that it is impossible that those released from detention soldiers proceeded straight to Portugal from a Burkina Faso prison. The moronic Femi Olajide continues to ask for evidence that the aircraft was spying, even after the following facts: (a) It is impossible for an aircraft heading to Portugal from Nigeria to end up in Burkina Faso. (b) The C130 is so sophisticated that it can land anywhere -- in the bush, on untarred surfaces, in the water, etc.; so if it was in immediate danger of crashing, it could have landed anywhere in Ibadan/Nigeria, Benin Republic, Ghana, or Togo -- it didn't have to journey all the way to Burkina Faso's airstrip. (c) How and why did it get to Burkina Faso, and assuming it needed to land in Burkina Faso, why didn't it notify the authorities, since landing without notification could have led to its destruction in mid-air? (d) The C130 had no business ending up in Burkina Faso if it was actually traveling to Europe -- it's correct route would have been through Agadez in Niger Republic, not further west and then northward into Burkina Faso (this idiot claims to be a pilot but doesn't know something this simple); it did not willingly land in Burkina Faso, it was ordered to land after its detection or risk destruction; upon landing, it and its crew were detained. (e) Femi keeps asking what it could have been spying about when it has no spying facilities from off the factory. That is even why it is a dangerous spying species, a stupid military would have reasoned as stupidly as did Femi Olajide by waving off the aircraft's violation of its airspace because it is a C130. Not only was Femi stupid in drawing that conclusion -- Nigeria could have had non-built-in portable spying equipment on board, since it had 11 crew members without any specific purposes or assignments -- but the actual spying was determining if Nigeria or France could go on a bombing run into Burkina Faso without getting detected by Burkinabe military. Had the C130 not been detected, forced to land, and detained, Nigeria would have learned that Burkina Faso had no air defense system, and it could have enabled Nigeria or France to wage war on Burkina Faso through the air, in order to end Traore's reign. That Femi Olajide doesn't know something this simple makes me hate that I reduce myself sometimes responding to his idiotic rants; hopefully that ends with 2025.
