good day to everybody in the room is there anybody that can tell me wereabout of this footballer.

he is in ibadan

Do you want his contact or just want to know whether Baba dey?

Last I heard of him, he declined to play an exhibition game in Abuja recently because his mother advised him against it.

Yekini saying that?

No comment.

I thought he was in America

@Blackmamba, Whatever reason his mum might have advised against his playing in the exhibition be it religious, superstitious or otherwise (that is if what you wrote about his mum is even true) ought to be respected.

oo baba Yekini long time i heard his name

Baba Yekini, the greatest Nigerian striker of all time.
All hail baba yekini!!

Yekini BaBa

thats a good No. 9 striker for you just bang the ball into the back of the net period! _{our very own shearer}

BlackMamba:

for where, baba is a grown man

Hum, Rashidi Yekini. Life, wonder where the goalie has gone?

I remember dat night he scored dat goal for nigeria and ran into the net. Men! I screamed mine voice out dat night shouting - Rashidi Yekini Rashidi Yekini Rashidi Yekini

The last time I saw him he was selling guguru and ekpa with a tray on his head

Can u imagine what this place has become? Well sha . .

Yekini was the Nigerian Van Nisterooy. He was an opportunists not a creator, He's the Nigerian with the most goals to his name internationally, but i wonder how many of those goals he actually created. I brief he was a goal mouth player

No hating though, God bless Yekini

How many of his goals have you watched?

In Algiers '90, can you remind us of how and how many he scored?

goal mouth player? How did he score against Algeria towards USA '94?, How did he score against Kenya in 1988 nations cup?

Goal mouth player?? No Sir!

Why dont they invite Yekini for match commentaries or post match analysis. why isnt they guy even involved with football anymore? this ibadan people sef!

Why cant past player do things like they do elsewhere? I'll like to see old players doing match analysis or something

Whats that joke about Mercy Akide again? Me I no dey o

Goal mouth player?? No Sir!

Then what was he then
How old are you self, you can't be older than 55, my statement was made from a 55 year sport Analyst, who was watching Naija footbal before Naija even gained independence

That 55yr old probably has gone senile or u got hearing probs j/k tho . . Yekini was in no way a RVN kind of player, dont bother questioning Uncle Akola's age!!

Kitaun, you speak bullshit,a lot -o- times, what are you mate? some1 makes a simple statement, which i believe is in fact the truth and you can't accept that or at least respect it. Who are you, some King

Lets all bow down to the Mighty Kitaun

Not

If anyone has gone senile, t's you
Yekini was a great player, but the vast majority of his goals were goal mouth

Sorry King Kitaun for disagreeing with you

See dis yeye boy . .j/k means just kidding son, so u shd have known there was a joke to it but even at that bow to King Kitaun or not, Yekini was not a g/mouth player, and I c u r still smarting 4rm the hurt of d previous exchange where Loyika cussed u out, am ashamed of rabble-rouser gunners like u, lol

*Kneeling Down and looking up to heaven*

Lord Bring back the good ol' times on NL Sport

@Dblock

I dont need any 55 years old man to tell me anything about Yekini.

If you need any info about Yeking, i believe all oldiesin the house; Kitaun,BolaOni,Sirkay will tell you without opening any book.

Even if you want to see Yekini, go to shop No **, Adamasingba stadium in Ibadan. That shop is owned by Yekini's best friend, hausa man for that matter.

@Bolaoni

What can we do?

This is definitely NOT Nairaland of 2005/Early 2006.

Make una cool down for the kid(D-Block).I think he said somewhere that he is 17 or was it 16

4play, u sure about that?

@Kitaun

I checked the old posts again.He said he was born in 1991.That makes him 16 years

The boy was a little baby when Yekini was knocking in the goals.

yeah and wasz dat gotta do wif anything fool, player, i could ah lied that i was 48 years old in all ma posts, ah could put a fake photo in ma profile, but waz that gotta do with anything. I was speakin from the quote of ma pops, he wannit no baby when yekini was hittin goals, yekini was da baby peeing on his daiper when ma pops was hitting goals

I don't really give what yalls says, cos yous nothing but fools, abaya's in order words. I wasn't disrespectful, i only voiced my opinion and like all other opinions on this forum it should be held credible n not walked over by a bunch of sport cronics. I aint down like dat, how bout you, PeaCE---

@dblock

I might not be really old, but I can tell you a whole lot of things you need to know about Yekini, maybe not as much as Akolawole considering the iBADAN thingy to it, but nearly as much,

Why did you not just tell us straight up that it was your pops who made that assertion in the first place?

Even at that, you are wrong and ought to accept that you are, I believe you ought to do ur research properly before saying things too on public forums

@Uncle Dblock

Sorry sir o.

I am out of here

@Kitaun

Dont forget this is a forum, expect ANYTHING.

No hating, I apologise for my disrespectful conduct. yall are older, and being African i should have known better than to eact the way I did. You probably have a point by saying i was a suckler when Yekini was hitting goals. But i felt the opinion of My father and Step Mum were credible.
