Everything is just going wrong in this country. When will we learn?

Ok

"Several of the players were in tears and total shock when the final results came through this morning"...As if they don't know their real ages!

that's Nigeria for you, a man of 26 years will claim to 17 years. didn't they know their age before they went to the camp? that's corruption and our baba will soon swing into action and send t them to KUJE prison



I joined nairaland 2 days ago and am already on the front page? am getting there.

What do you guys expect from a society that likes to cheat at every available opportunity.

grayht:
Just 2 surviving players? In orubebe's voice...

kikiki Kakaka Hohoho hahaha, bro you gat me luaghing real hard
''We will not take this, Nigeria will not take this ''

ubsilas:
NCAN!!!

We are at alert!

martineverest:
why are nigerians always cheating ?


Cheating is one of the reasons y nigerian national football team dont progress/grow......a man of 28 will be claiming 16.by d time he s 20(fake age),his muscles would have been weak

we have a cheating govt dats y?

Age cheating has always been a recurring issue in age grade competitions and the terrible level of corruption has made it endemic.
The boys share in the blame for their cruelty and dishonesty but the administrators should be sanctioned as they actually encourage age cheating in a brazen manner.
Lying and cheating have become a national culture because of crippled systems and nepotism.

I am still trying to figure that out.

Tolexander:
lol!

Wonder shall never cease ending!
Why were they crying?
Don't they know their age before or they don't know what age group competition they wanna represent?

These guys should be thrown into prison for having prior knowledge that they are beyond the stipulated age and deliberately enrolling into the competition, only to be caught at a critical stage like this.

the mri is the standard and it would slight of duty to not have done it locally before this. since as much as nine players in the startup team were disqualifed the mode of employing players should be queried to know who failed to verify ages.

Bunch of Stanley Okoro,Fortune Chukwudi,Dele Ajiboye,Kabiru Akinsola,Yakubu Alfa,Sherrif Issa

And they even had the guts to cry make them gnash their teeth kukuma join mumu 23 year olds claiming under 17, fifa deserves big kudos for this MRI scan machine.

Geofavor:
Hahahahaha.

And the saying goes thus: 'everyday is for the thief, one day is for the owner'...

Criminals! Nigeria has always used overaged players. This is why I'm usually tentative to celebrate when they win the U-17 world cup.

A 25-year old will claim he's 16 just because he's short.

And the coaches are always aware of this. In fact, they would deliberately leave out younger players who are within the stipulated age range. They use overaged players as an advantage over other countries ( well, that's what the dumb coaches think).

What they don't know is that that preliminary level is meant to be used in building the national team gradually.

Little wonder why our national team is a mess.

By the time a 25-year old plays at the under 17 level, when he gets to the national team, he would have become too old to even lift himself off the floor. It shows in all our players.

They shine at the junior level, when they get to the senior level, they flop. That's age quickly catching up on them.

Abeg, FIFA you give us our due punishment, maybe then we would learn.

All countries are guilty of this.
Among all the teams that participated in u17 world Cup far back in 2003,its only Mikel obi that has bin consistent till date, same apply to iheanacho and Co. Stop bad mouthing.

This same situation happened to the original boys Manu Garba/Nduka Ugbade/Emmanuel Amuneke selected in 2011-12 for U-17. They had to fall back to the National U-15 team which they eventually transformed into the Glorious U-17 team of the likes of Isaac Success, kelechi Iheanacho and Co., that ruled the world in UAE 2013 U-17.
How come coach Garba was not weary of a repeat occurrence this time around?
Just shows the guy doesn't learn from his past experience. Watch-out, Golden Eaglet is about to suffer what Super Eagles and Flying Eagles suffered. It appears 2017 is going a boring year for national team football, as NFF and the new Sports minister are just a bundle of disaster.

Nigeria has been cheating big time since 12bc.

Any keen observer will realize their 2015 Fifa u17 win was a fraud.

Virtually all the players were never u17 and they managed to get away with it.

God don punish you.

Ironi:

in 2013 and 2015, all the players in the competition passed MRI tests so they are not cheats..

Its a good development. We must learn fairness in this country.

tbaba1234:

Yeah right, there was no way the players I was seeing on the field were u17.

Oh yes, they were, they got away with it.

Ever heard of bribery?

When the head is clueless...

There is no way that they can get away with bribery. The players were tested multiple times at CAF and FIFA level..

ALL TEAMS are compelled to take the test.

As long as they passed the test, it is 99% confirmed that they are within the age group..

Yea.. Your head day there

If you were born 17 years ago, which isn't that distant in time, and some machine tells you you were born twenty years ago wouldn't you cry too? It may seem odd, my even sympathizing with the young people, but experience has made me highly distrustful of the West and their authority. No matter how incredible the venture may seem we should always question. Remember how people questioned these MRI machines when Nigerian players passed them in recent past competitions, so why aren't people questioning the MRI's now?

We are so trustful of the West, I'm surprised those widely publicized fake bomb detecting machines are not being widely used in Nigeria.

I will say it again, Nigeria and Nigerians are the easiest people to cheat and prejudice against because Nigerians -if they are Nigerians - are always vocal in supporting questionable acts against Nigeria and Nigerians.

VERY GOOD NEWS!! V E R Y. V E R Y G O O D N E W S!!

For how long will we remain a nation of self deceiving liars?!

I have said it times without number that our age cheating IS NOT HELPING OUR FOOTBALL!!

Nigeria has won U-17 several times, yet:

Our players are not rising to be best in Africa!!!

We have never gone past second round at senior world cup!!!

We have never even won Under 21 world cup!!!

Our Olympic final teams were made up mostly of players WHO DID NOT play under 17 football!!!

Nigeria's senior team have failed to qualify for 3 of the last 4 Nations Cup tournaments!!!

When you play 21 - 23 year olds against 16 year olds, they are bound to look like spectacular talents!!!

Where is Chrisantus today?!

When u mention these facts to my fellow Nigerians, they say other nations also cheat!!

Even if they also cheat, which I doubt for Europe and South America, IS IT BENEFITTING THEIR FOOTBALL ULTIMATELY?!

We are too gullible in this country. That they were disqualified does not mean they were all overage. I remember a 17 years old American born player who was about to play for Nigeria but was disqualified by the scan as overage.

NATIONAL EMBARRASMENT,Not really surprising though.I wander how they've been scalling thru all this while cos we all know this before.

I totally condemn age cheating, its unhygienic. Those affected should update their true age, and move on. Let me not forget, Is Bastian schweinisteiger 32?, is Tevez 32? is Rooney 30? What of Robben, macherano, Diego Costa, etc..oyinbo lie pass, we dey learn..

Hello guys in the house, this is the fact about the MRI machine, if you guys don't know. how the machine works please ,lets leave those guys alone, the MRI machine that qualified the Elder brother and disqualify the younger brother at the last U17 , so what can you guys say about that

no more u-17 trophies for nigeria. Oruma and kanu were like 25years old when they played in japan 93.
