Ibadanpikin: You're not even ashamed. You want to disparage Yorubas and argue in favour of your Igbo ethnic group with a username that shows you are obsessed with Yorubas and that your world is centred around them. This is the thing about you Igbos. Most of you secretly envy the Yorubas and wish you were like them. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery meaning copying someone or something is an implicit way of paying them a compliment. I personally dont take Igbos seriously because I know the reason most of you talk about Yorubas non-stop and wish to chest-beat to them is because you want to be Yorubas and you seek their validation above everything else on earth.

Emilokoiyawon:They are saturating it and winning trophies unlike that don't even have anything to saturate it in the first place Please, stop making a fool of yourself yekini was never nominated for for caf talk more of winning it..the first Nigerian to win it was Emmanuel amunike..yekini didn't win any caf and obafemi was never nominated for it. Okacha was nominated and he came third while Mikel came second in 2013 when he was nominated for it.. Obafemi was below average that's why he was never nominated for anything.. Mikel has achieved alot more than him in football careers, who knows obafemi martins apart from Nigerians but Mikel obi is more popular .. No footballer from the west or Yoruba origin is a match for the likes of Mikel,jay jay,KANU etc.. |

Why am I even exchanging football banter with you. You are a novice. You know nothing. Rashidi Yekini was the African Footballer of the year 1993. Which makes him the first Nigerian to win it.

When Oba-goal was setting Italian league on fire Mikel was still struggling in Norway. You know nothing fool. Ideke9000:Yes. No Yoruba midfielder is up to Kanu or Okocha.
