      @@drjukebox The President of Algeria is younger than the senile fool in the white house, and the one who preceded him, and Tebboune as an individual is a legend. What Algeria needs is Lovers and Believers of Algeria as its leadership. And not these incompetent old traitors pretending to be army Generals, when they've never conducted a war in their life. The problem with Algerian government is the amount of weak money hungry incompetent traitors inside our Military and Intelligence communities. But tbh Algeria is much less corrupt than any of your Western countries, and definitely less than the Arabs or Morrocans. So mind your business.

From Algiers to Lagos , a Road with Fiber-optic cables , water and electricity , they must install Solar panels and Batteries all along to support Economic Activity, Shops and Farmers and Craft Markets as well as small and medium Businesses and Factories. A Gas pipeline is next, good for the local residents. Since in a few years it will be very busy, Authorities must make sure there is space to expand on all sides to include side roads for local Business and Stores and to make turns, as well as for pedestrian and bicyclist and joggers , a grand avenue with palm trees and terraces and lovely local restaurants and shops, a vibrant local economy.

    We simply hope the trans-Saharan road is not designed for the Arab expansionist project - to enable their easy transportation of terrorist soldiers and military hardware from Arabia into Nigeria and other secular West African states, for recolonization under a central Islamic state, as feared in some quarters. The whole world has to keep a watchful eye on this road

    • @raphduru9787

      @user-vw6bk4pb4l Majority of the terrorists are Fulani, who historically are descendants of Arabs, and who still see themselves as Arabs and are aligned with them in their expansionist Islamic jihad to colonize the whole of Africa . Although that mission was temporarily halted when Europeans came in to colonize Africa, but the Arabs, slowly but steadily have, however, since the physical departure of the Europeans resumed their mission in recent decades. Another point of correction, if you study the military campaigns of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon and those of Persia, they usually used a lot of their conquered black slaves, in addition to recruiting mercenary black warriors from nearby kingdoms, to prosecute their expansionist campaigns. Many of Nebuchadnezzar's Generals were infact black because Nebuchadnezzar felt they were more loyal and more unlikely to stage a coup against his throne than his fellow lighter generals. Many Arab kings have ever since, followed King Nebuchadnezzar's military strategy in their expansionist missions. The Islamic terrorists in Nigeria have their loyalty to Arabia and being funded from Arabia. The terrorists soldiers in Nigeria are just hired mercenaries
