we all knw that there was once a govt in nigeria,y now blame the govt for her responsiveness or otherwise?.
come to look at things (imo) late keshi(mhsrip) worked for his country and in a contractual capacity and is being paid the same way he was contracted by togo,waiting on the govt for burial right is only discretional and not obligatory otherwise so be it in future case of death of any team member or player of the super eagles.
As a matter of fact,i doubt a football body that is not bouyant enough to sponsor its team to a glorious event like the olympics will contribute meaningfully to keshi's burial other than accrue more motuary expenses to the family of the deceased.
The family of late stephen keshi is good enough to bury their son and they have done just that,lets all pray for the repose of the soul of the deceased and leave the govt out of this.
FAREWELL SKIPPO.

Buhari ought to have been present at his funeral. Let me just keep quite because if I talk wetin de my mind about dullard man and this zoo country, the moderators go ban me for one year.
Only a fool will die for Nigeria. When even the president is not willing to die so we go get peace.

I spit on Buhari.

Just imaging if GEJ is still the President today, Kechi would have been giving his due "last" respect and recognition.


you are right because that govt did not waste any opportunity to siphon funds, they would have allocated billions and spent millions.


It's not right that a national hero like Keshi is not given deserved recognition by the govt at his burial but please leave GEJ's govt out of this. The quicker the memory of that imb*cile and his lot are expunged from our national pysche the better.

Trust the 'All Promises Cancel' government at your risk.

Nigerians are still waiting for the free daily meal for primary school pupils.
24 hours electricity.
N1=1 $
Corruption free government
Security of lives and properties.
Employment for youth, etc.

They just deceived Nigerians.


This is the worst government post independence. See the inflation rate alone, 16.9%?

How much will they even spend on the burial? Am sure Aso Rock feeding allowance for just a day breakfast will make the burial to be a "federal burial" and not even state burial.

Sadly this is what Nigeria has become.

How could Oliseh make such a statement? The Federal govt may have failed you but your service was to the nation not the government!

I don't get the sense of entitlement these guys have sometimes... even when we play 5 a side here or a full 11-11 game we play our hearts out. Not because of the hope of cars or houses or acknowledgement but simply for the love of the game.

Why can't you just play the game and be grateful for the opportunity to have represented Nigeria?

Am disappointed. Buhari is indeed a disappointment. What is it? These are the little things that count, the little icing in the cake.

How do you built faith in a country? How do you motivate the citizens? How do you make them become your fans?

Just by doing the little things and not by telling the whole world that all of them are corrupt except yourself.

God deliver us from this man.

F*ck patriotism to this fraud enclave called Nigeria

Nigerians can be funny. This is a country that nothing functions. And when i say nothing, i mean absolutely nada and for some reason they expect this one thing, a burial in this case, to go smoothly. Are these guy living in Nigeria at all? Or am I the only one sane? It is like it is a surprise to them that the country is jacked the phuck up. What is wrong with these people? If i may quote the literary genius, cococandy grin; What do you expect when the number of s.tupid people outnumber normal people in a country? Newsflash people; you should and must always expect chaos. I know i do.

You are sounding disappointed. Have you forgoton so soon that Keshi is from the south south and the head of the country, Buhari is from the north that he is not only the heaviest and worse tribal leaders ever produced in this country but he is also one of the dafts and dumbest.

Let me enlighten you. Playing for various clubsides is his day's job. That is his every day profession. It becomes a national duty when you put on the Green and White. When Porto, Barcelona or Real Madrid won the UCL, they were not hosted by their respective govts of Portugal or Spain. But when the national teams won European nations cup, the stars got national honours, reception etc from their govts. So dear, the difference is clear. It is not your 7-5 job profession

first of all its Keshi not 'kechi'. Secondly, Keshi has been buried without the 'fanfare' that the fed govt promised abi? Tell me one sports man that was honored in this country when he or she died?. Sam Okwaraji died on the pitch playing for Nigeria what has been done to honor him? Was it Buhari that promised to give them houses in 1994? Finally, shey it was the same Buhari that gave the members of the 1984 under 17 champions 2 million each at the beginning of his tenure because he couldn't honor them due to the coup that removed him from power?....My dear, biko try n think first before u comment on somethings...Shuaibu Amodu coached the Eagles four times, what was done to honor him?....Did his family complain?

Buhari is helpless here. EFCC is our best bet at arresting the seemingly hopeless situation we find ourselves.
Don't twist logic on its head. Keshi did not die a pauper. Did the family not bury him? Buhari helpless to keep his promise? Don't be deceived. Least they could do was to send delegates to grace his burial
