How do you pack your champions inside trailer like ileya goats?


The sad effect of National incompetence, cluelessness, crudeness, crassness, lack of patriotic spirit and National pride

While i think it's highly embarrassing to use that kind of pickup truck to convey human beings let alone African women's champions, i don't think it's fair to juxtapose those pictures because the female team have been wrongly neglected even though they have won numerous African championships. You should be using what the FG did for the Super eagles and what the Lagos state did for them if you really want to compare.

When its lagos or fashola, you come out swinging with wild, flawed and irrational attacks, but when it comes to your worthless federal government, you start making meaningless and irrelevant excuses.

And why should I look for another picture to prove an obvious point when I already have enough to make my point. Green eagles or falcon, it makes no difference.

Did the Lagos state government host the falcons and if they didn't, why? and if they did, what did they parade them in? That's if they were paraded at all. My point is that, don't use the falcons to judge the FG granted that they goofed on using such truck for the falcons. If you wan to compare, there has to be a level playing field. Compare what the FG did for the eagles with what Lagos did for the eagles and not what the FG did for the falcons with what Lagos did for the eagles. is that too much to ask for?

If the OP wasn't thinking like an "ileya goat" himself, I'm sure he would have noticed that the Nigeria FA isnt a govt Parastatal but a totally independent body which the FG is powerless to act on despite decades of incompetence and entrenched corruption. That bus was hired by the FA to convey the Falcons and had no'n to do with the Federal Govt. Whoever hosted them in Lagos only chose a better bus. You should be asking the FA why they conveyed the Falcons in a rickety bus and not the FG.

Still pointless and irrelevant since it doesn't matter who it happened to or change the fact that your country packed her champions inside trailer likke ileya goats which remains the the point and not your irrelevant and pointless stories.

You should have made this point without trying to compare the FG and Lagos state. You can agree that you shot yourself in the foot by doing that. I hope you've learned from this experience.

Hosting and picking up your champions from the airport are 2 different things and the FA is not responsible for the safety and transportation of the national . There is a reason why the National seal sitting prominently on the sign in front of that trailer.

Even going by your bogus story, its even worse to surrender your arriving national heroes to an ordinary association and subject them to that national disgrace and shame who sent them to that tournament? The FA or the federal republic of Nigeria.?

Try again...

You are still the same afam and the fact that you are running around making silly point and excuses for such display of shame and absurdity says you are still afam . Defending and celebrating the bad and the ugly is nothing new to you, this is your favorite activity so no surprise here.

The shooting yourself nonsense unfortunately was a reflection of your own insecurities about your worthless Abuja folks because pictures don't lie, it's up there true color for all to see.


Den say you still 10 kobo and you say no be so because na only 5 kobo I still. You are worse than elementary school kid ....smh.

Stop trying to change the goal post. Your reason for creating this thread was to compare Fashola(Lagos government) and Jonathan(Nigerian government) but it backfired because you didn't present a good case and it also seems you didn't do your research very well. It would have made better sense to allow people comment on the rickety bus provided by the government instead of bringing Lagos into it. The reason why a lot of people who used to support Fashola or ACN are rethinking is because their spokepeople and supporters which you're one of are not doing a good job. You people are killing your party by yourself by making silly comparisons.

The Super Eagles are in Namibia as we speak, all that concerns them would be handled by the FA and they wld only contact the embassy if they run into any trouble. In Kenya a week ago the FA had to make new hotel and transport arrangements for the Super Eagles cos they weren't happy with the Kenyan arrangement just as the Kenya FA had to make arrangements for her national team when She faced similar problems in Nigeria a month ago, the embassy took a back seat on both occasions why? Cos a country's national team is the responsibility of her FA in ALL ASPECTS!
Baba Ijebu, Football is not ewedu and amala, it also requires some level of intelligence to understand what happens outside kicking football - intelligence you obviously lack. Why not stick to your usual Fuji-resque praise singing? Oya take mic, wetin Fashola do last nite?

To start with, this thread remains about the 2 pictures and not all the silly and side rubbish you keep regurgitating so we know who is doing goal changing. Hold yourself and don't lose balance.

Like I said, your bogus and irrelevant excuses and defense of the worthless federal government is a reflection of your own insecurities because no reference was made regarding Jonathan or Fashola, but since it's in your blood and DNA to defend the dullard by any means necessary, you have to jump the gun and make pointless and meaningless statements that has nothing to do with the topic at hand. This is a sad example of your own flawed judgment and sense of rationalization.

Your Jonathan insecurities and fears has no bearing on me or dictates to me how I make my point so save your stories and Jonathan worries and if you feel like turning this topic into a Fashola Vs Jonathan topic, bring it on, you know I enjoy clowning that clueless and incompetent dullard...

These players, whether Falcons or Eagles, are high assets to the nation and cannot be replaced short term were they to become victims in a high risk exposure to danger and hazards. So we must check few things to help improve their transportation going forward.

Vehicles used for transporting mass population are required to carry license that cover the passenger and properties. The double decker bus is a mass transit bus and falls under this category.

Similarly, flatbed trucks designed for hauling goods and produce must carry license that cover loss of stock and perishable goods ruined by acts contingent on their transportation from one point to another. Thus the blue truck shown in this picture fall under that category.

In both instances, the payloads are expected to be fastened down for additional safety.

These questions must be asked:

1. Were these vehicles part of a convoy in a victory parade?

2. Were these high valued national assets exposed to unecessary risks and endangerement?

3. Were they covered under individiual insurance?

4. A fatal accident would constitute high risk exposure to danger. If a fatal accident were to happen, what are the chances that the insurer of the blue truck would pay for the losses to the human cargo?

On a risk assessment scale of 1 to 5, where 1 is somewhat tolerable and 5 is highly unnaceptable; score each of the buses on two values of

(a) this action was thoughtful and should be repeated in future needs.
(b) the red bus should be the adopted model and baselined for improved usage in future
