Ideke9000:Yes. No Igbo striker can touch Obafemi Martins not to even talk of Yekini. Mikel is a midfielder (and an average one at that) not a striker. Get sense. Ideke9000:Edo? You mean Yakubu? Even Yakubu comes after Obagoal. At any rate. Yekini remains King of Nigerian strikers. Confam. Ideke9000:1. Nigerian winning teams had players from many different tribes not just Igbos. 2. Yes, Igbos produce more footballers because they see football as business. But 99% are average. Apart from Kanu and Okocha there is no other Igbo player that could not have been benched by any other player from another tribe. Facts. 6 Likes |

vanunu: But Dick Tiger is like 50 years ago? Guy, Yorubas are breaking skulls and smashing faces as we speak at the highest level. For a tribe of 'cowards' I will say we have done very well for ourselves. Its time for the chest beating 'tough' tribe to goo and produce an Anthony Joshua and an Israel Adesanya. Since you Igbos are so 'tough' and 'courageous' you should have no problem doing this within a year. 5 Likes |

Igbochief001:I have followed this thread from page 1 and this your accession just showed how ignorant you are. No offense intended, but sunny Ade, fela, Ebenezer obey alone are greater than than the old generation Igbo musicians like osadebe etc, (I mean sunny Ade music still rocked homes and shows that aren't even Yoruba then) I don't know any Igbo current musician that is greater than phyno yet the dude reverenced the fact he was an apprentice under olamide (same olamide that was a benefactor to dagrin). And this is just for indeginous musicians, the main stream Igbo don't come close to Wizkid, davido, and the likes which they struggle to sing to their lyrics. Female arstist ( yemi alade, tiwa, teni, Simi, ninola, seyi Shay) please drop female Igbo artist In terms of entertainment, Yoruba own that, I am not even Yoruba myself 8 Likes 1 Share |

Ibadanpikin: First of all, it's strange to claim a defender was the best player in the tournament when the team scored the highest goals in the tournament. Segun Odegbami was the joint highest scoreer in 1980 with Lawal not to far behind As for 1994 nations cup, Emunike only scored in final for the very first time in the tournament as Yekini was closely marked. Without Yekini scoring Five goals, there would have been no final for Nigeria. Yekini was the highest goal scoreer in that tournament. 5 Likes 1 Share

Nadaken: Oga stop typing thrash.. Go to eastern Nigeria a s see that people still play osadebe songs,oliver d coke and the rest and they are no greater than any old generation Igbo musicians.. Most Igbo's don't even know of them except for fela though. It was the likes of psquare,tuface that changed took Nigerian hip hop music industry to a another height.. They made Nigerian music Nigerian music what is it today for others to enter the stage.. Phyno an apprentice under olamide how and when did he say that.. Care to show me the link to where he said it The likes of tekno,run town, jidenna,patronaking,psquare,zoro are still Igbo's..

Ideke9000:Common. You know how your people are now. When they see business the rush in and SATURATE the market with low-grade products. Na u na way. Ideke9000:Yes now. Comparing a midfielder to a striker is madness. Comparing Drogba to Mikel is madness. One's job is to score goals and the other is to control the midfield. Get sense. Ideke9000:Yes. No Igbo striker can stand toe to toe with Oba-goal let alone Yekini. These are facts not opinion. Ideke9000:You are the one comparing them not me. Oba-goal was a striker (a very good one) and Mikel was a midfielder (a very average one). See above - only an idiot will compare striker to defensive midfielder. Ideke9000:Nothing special about Mikel. Many average players win trophies. Many great players go trophyless. So are you saying Mikel is greater than Okocha? Ideke9000:Big lie. Yekini was the first Nigeria to win CAF player of the year. And in terms of women Oshoala don win am. Ideke9000:Did Okocha get CAF Award? So are you saying back-passing master Mikel is better than Okocha? Ideke9000:You mean football? Nah. First, produce a STRIKER to rival Yekini and Oba-goal then produce a goal keeper that will rival Vincent Enyeama the Ibibio man then I will take you serious. Until then, its just your normal chest-beating. 3 Likes |
