Is there any reason no mod on nairaland is out the uefa champions league matches tonight to frontpage or is it because it's not Chelsea or arsenal playing? City is playing Madrid tonight.
Beverlyjean: Immobile scored more goals cos he plays for a team that scores more goals and we all know no one can score 30 goals for Atletico or juve because of their style of play... Juventus hasn't even scored 5 goals in a single game in ages... besides Ronaldo missed 4 games....Ronaldo is the first Juventus player to score 30 goals in a season , and he did it at 35 after just 2 seasons in italy... inzaghi , del piero , higuain, dybala, Ibrahimovic , vieri, vialli, trezeguet, baggio cudnt do it
Really!!! Because u are a lady I will take it easy with u. The record holder of the top scorer in serie A is Gonzalo Higuian. Do u think he was playing for Lazio or Inter when he scored those 36 goals to have that record? My dear Higuian was and still is a Juventus player.
OfficialJayy: La liga has been producing the european golden boot winner because the league is way too easy... No matter how good you are or the team you play for, you would be really lucky if you score more than 25goals per season in the epl... The likes of kane, vardy would score 40goals per iseason if they were playing in la liga
Shebi that's the way Hazard your king in the epl has been scoring it since he joined Madrid. When we say common sense is not common it's because of comments like this.
Collinz2: You are confusing youself and saying the same thing.
Messi might have higher penalties than Ronaldo but was only able to convert 89 which makes him a poor penalty taker.
He never argued about Ronaldo being better at penalties. His point is that who is the better overall player between both having scored less penalty goals but more of open play goals going by the stats. Do u understand his logic now?
I noticed for some days now that I feel itch all over my body unnecessarily. There's no sign of any skin disease or rashes but just itching me. Is there any reason for this and what drug can I use to stop this cos it's making me uncomfortable and embarrassing.
Na waoh....just one person dominate goals chart and assists chart in the world. God please bless my unborn son with talent like Lionel Messi oh. This guy is without doubt the God of football and it baffles me how any sane person will think Ronaldo is close.
Nairalandmonika: Do u know this distance between Lagos and Calabar, and the line will pass through all Niger Delta state b4 getting to Lagos. Did u see the time it took them to build lagos to ibadan? This govt cannot build lagos to Calabar in 3yrs. That's just the truth.
Actually the rail is expected to pass through the sea to Calabar and not through states. But it's still impossible to complete it in 3 years though.
Jeferious: As a Nigerian that have lived in Nigeria since my birth, I have come to realise something about most fellow Nigerians- at the very core of their DNA is hypocrisy and pretence. My people cannot say something with their lips and not mean another thing. So when they see an honest man who is firm enough to tell his stance about marriage, they are astounded.
The truth of the matter is that I don't even understand why the institution of marriage is still surviving. You see the same people in this thread clamoring that marriage is the best decision they will ever take and that the guy is plainly irresponsible, some of them are adulterers and adulterers-in-waiting. Some of them secretly loathe marriage and crave the freedom that comes with singlehood. I know some girls who marry because of financial security. They confided in me that if they were financially secured, no stupid man will come close to them and preach marriage. But see them on the thread labelling a young man who knows what he wants as irresponsible.
Some will advocate for the institution of familihood with continued ancestral lineage as their point. As if their late fathers and grandfathers still remember from the grave that they left behind a family. Abeg stop that useless blackmail. All man for himself.
Op, welcome to the age of selfishness. Even the Bible recorded that in the last days, men(and women) shall become lovers of themselves. And that is why you see some men doubting the benefits that they will earn if they marry. The emphasis is on self-interest these days. So don't be mad if your guy doesn't see anything good in marriage. If you can't cope with the idea of babymamaism, you can exit the relationship if you like. Please don't confuse a brother who is eager to tend to his self-interests before anything. Because the more you girls push for marriage, the more we come to the knowledge that there's something in this marriage that puts things in your favour and in our disadvantage.
U are the most sincere person on this thread and may God bless you. I'm 37 and still don't see any benefit in wifing a woman. I can cook my meal or order from jumia, i can have sex whenever and however I want with any girl of my choice including the wives of the so called married responsible people, I give my clothes to the drycleaners and i have a worker that cleans up my duplex weekly. Can you now tell me what benefit a woman will bring to my home in the name of marriage other than to come and complicate my beloved life i'm living? All my friends are married and they tag me as irresponsible but the moment I remind them that they all have girlfriends more than me they shut up immediately. Marriage is solely for procreation and once u are able to get a child through whatever means available it's of no use anymore and a big scam.
olumide4christ: Some people are just a disgrace to us as men. Imagine a 35 year old man not thinking of getting married, but planning for baby mama. At his age, I had been married for 5 years and up till now, still enjoying my home - wife and children - after 9 years of marriage. Some men will just be growing age-wise, but still be reasoning like a 21 year old!
What a pity!
That is your own cup of tea if you think the scam called marriage is what makes u matured. Some of us are heading to our 40s and still don't see any usefulness in the scam called marriage.
Intrepid01: But some girls don't mind sha....a young lady I've been friends with, she just graduated from Unilag. Around December/ January I told her wanted her to conceive for me and she was cool with it. infact we recently dsussed it again and she's still cool with it. I asked her if I Dad won't be angry, cos her mum is late, she said her he won't be mad at her at all. Unfortunately me I was just joking about it but the pretty babe is damn serious about it.
Pls can u connect me yo this lady cos that's what I want too. A baby mama with no strings attached. I will sign up a contract to cater for the kid.
obonujoker: - Name any active players who has more freekick goals than Ronaldo
- Name any player who has more successful dribbles in a match than Ronaldo
-Name any player who has more headed goals than Ronaldo
Stop coming online to display your ignorance here. A simple google from your phone will tell you what you have typed is blasphemy. Pjanic is rated the best freekick taker in the world and Ronaldo is not even in the first 5 mentions, the best dribbler in the world also is of course Lionel Messi while your Ronaldo is not even also in the first five mention here. In header he made the first five but even Didier Drogba is considered a better header of the ball than Ronaldo. Gullible lazy folks won't do any research but just come online and type rubbish.
DrayZee: Lol. Others are a hoax, including a skill that was literally named after him?
Messi fans are the most delusional people on earth No vex sha. It’s not good for your health.
What's the skill named after Ronaldo other than the widely known penaldo? We all know he's the king of penalties. You call Ronaldo that cannot put two passes together for his teammates the most complete player? I have video proof of his matches in Juve, his passing ability is extremely poor and thats what makes a player complete because u need vision and teamwork in football which is the reason many football coaches and pundits will always rate Messi ahead of him anytime anyday cos of Messi's playmaking abilities.
Amaechi is a great man and I respect him a lot.He is one of the few politicians I admire a lot in Nigeria, I remember when i did my youth service in rivers state and amaechi was governor, he built roads and stepped on overbearing elders/cultists toes and to crown it all amaechi was paying youth corpers 110,000k the moment you are passing out irrespective of your tribe or religion.As a minister amaechi has been building railways everywhere.The one in rivers now has eroded all these legacies and only making noise everywhere. Ride on Amaechi the great man.
Blessamaka: My post might be lengthy but I'll try my best to be brief but please read to the end.
I'm in my early twenties (20's) and currently a student in one of the prestigious university in Nigeria.
Before I got admission, I usually help my mum to sell onions in Ajegunle market aka boundary market in Lagos State.
Ever since schools were shut down due to the pandemic I've been scared of helping my mum because of the despicable rules or laws guiding the business which i might not be able to keep to it thereby putting my mum in trouble and that's the only means of survival for me and mum for now.
My mum belongs to a group of people that sells same product and they are usually referred to as Union and the leaders are the one dishing out those annoying laws.
Examples of such laws are:
1. You don't buy more than the quantity of goods apportioned to you else you will be fined and suspended from selling but the so called leaders go contrary to these laws
2. They tell you when to buy goods i.e before buying new goods, you sell your old goods for 7days not minding if the quantity apportioned to you is enough or not. My self as a case study, we were apportioned 3 bags of onions and I sell 3 bags in 3 days so me and my mum would stay at home for 4days before going to buy new goods.
3. They tell you when to start selling which is 10:00am everyday excluding Sunday and this law was before the pandemic
4. They tell you how to sell i.e the size of onions you are to sell for a particular amount as if they borrowed you money or they are the one giving you money always to buy goods.
And many more of these unimaginable laws. Right now I confused! I don't know the best way to go about this and I really do wish to start selling because I'm broke and I've so many responsibilities to care for financially.
I need legal help, advice on how to go about this until I get something else to do or probably a work or a different business.
The reason for going into business is to make profit and save for rainy days but the reverse seems to be the case here.
Please help me move to front page to get more reviews in regard to this
A lot of times we are quick to criticize but don't think deeply on the reason some rules are laid down in business. Onions are perishable goods and the union knows that if u have surplus u will be forced to sell at lower price because u won't want them to perish hence the reason for the rationing. Your mum too is benefitting from these rules because if other sellers have surplus they will sell at lower prices that will push your mum out of business since she won't be able to compete and the cycle goes on. My advise to you is to abide by the rules in that market then look for another market to be selling in days u don't have rations to sell at that market and to the fool that quoted if we have onion sellers here and those that liked his comment. Never you make mockery of someone else's means of livelihood else hunger will be your portion in life.
Goalnaldo: why are you breathing in only oxygen since you were born? Try other gas like ammonia, hydrogen sulphide.
Your biology teacher did a poor job. So u think it's only oxygen u breathe in when u breathe in air? Other gases like neon,carbon dioxide,water vapour etc are involved. Oxygen is only about 78%and u won't survive if u breathe in only oxygen for too long.
Foodforthought: There's more to an attacking partnership than stats. You've got to consider a number of factors and parameters e.g fluidity, understanding, build up, joint creation, etc. Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez all playing together is incomparable and unmatchable. Searching pass from Scholes or Park....then counter
How else do you want to measure an attacking trio other than the stats, particularly one that's not only measuring the number of goals scored but also the number of assists? Its like putting in so much efforts without any result at work, will your manager rate u well? The answer is no. There's a reason stats is used to measure players and goals are used to define a winning team, it's because there's meant be a result at the end of the day. To me nothing beats the Arsenal trio of Henry,bergkamp and pires and the stats are there for all to see. Perhaps, your sentiment for always wanting to have Ronaldo in your list is what's causing your delusion but please be objective for once.
Thiery Henry by far, I wonder if those saying Ronaldo started watching football yesterday. Ronaldo had little influence even in Manutd as Rooney even had more goals than him there.
You are a very weak man and I see desperation and selfishness on your part and not love. Probably the girl is from a rich home or earns better than u hence u think settling with her will ease your burden in life and you decided to play kite with your life. Only lazy and unreasonable men think this way, since you have decided to damn the hiv virus and have sex with her without protection you should be prepared for the worse and issues that will come with it. Firstly,you will suffer from discrimination from family members and your mum will tell you how she has slept with different men to now finally give you the virus she contacted in the process.Secondly, you should know that you need more money to buy retroviral drugs for you both because u will use the drugs daily for the rest of your hiv life as I don't need to remind you that you will soon contact the virus sooner than later. Lastly, you have a lot of explanation to give to your unborn children on how you both contacted hiv by the time your family members start distancing from them because they think they have hiv and trust children to ask you why. My opinion is simple and I'm unapologetic about it; hiv patients should marry a fellow hiv patients the same way a leper should marry a fellow leper. A rich man should marry a fellow rich babe while a poor man should marry a fellow poverty stricken woman to forestall toxic marriages.
Assuming you said fed. university, you would have made a point...
Actually he's right and I know one. One of GOSs daughter (Ganiyu olanrewaju Solomon a former senator representing Lagos East) went to yabatech. Are u saying gos is not richer than the middle class parents sending their kids to convenant or Babcock?
All these rantings and lobbying. Whether u people like it or not God has ordained Tinubu to be Nigeria's president and no man born of a woman can stop him. On BAT 2023 we stand.
Racoon: I dont need it because I'm not running a clueless and rudderless economy venture like the useless govt that is mortgaging Nigeria into eternal indebtedness.
Debt servicing is not a sound economic thing to do in this era of global economic meltdown.Generations will suffer to pay this debts.
U people just like to display your ignorance online. What will u have the govt do in this instance? There's no money and oil is not selling, do u want the govt to watch u suffer and lose jobs? Do u know how many goods and raw materials that cannot be brought in now as a result of fx paucity? If u don't borrow how do you intend to finance these deals? Please dont just criticise everything but learn how the economy works. I'm not a Buhari fan but I totally agree with this loan right now.
deavicky: it does!!! the virus go to bed by 8:30pm wakes up by 6:30am. Or u think bubu those not know small thing about the virus.
Reading this comment, I have once again confirmed majority of Nigerian graduates are unwise and have zero thinking faculty. The reason for the curfew is to reduce social gatherings that will ultimately reduce the spread of the virus. Are you saying u are not aware bars, pubs and clubs function more at night? Hence a curfew won't allow people go there. I'm just wondering why any reasonable graduate cannot figure this out without being told and will resort to display his foolishness openly by descending on the government with his low IQ.
realworld360: I had a very similar experience to yours because when I was ready to settle down, I kept meeting girls with issues. On the third one, I just decided to settle for the lesser evil among them cos I thought they all seemed to have one issues or the other. How wrong could I be? The answer to your question is not farfetched. You need to look inward yourself. There is something in you that makes you attract them. The reason can either be physical or spiritual. First, it is physical in the sense that you may have been having lower expectations from the kind of ladies you want to marry. It is most times, a derivative of your own self-esteem. Before making a marriage plan with someone, you should ask yourself these questions: Am I marrying for sex or for purpose? If you are marrying for purpose, you may need to set bigger expectations for yourself to determine the kind of woman that will help you achieve your purpose. Some cardinal questions need to be answered: aside from sex and procreation, what will the lady contribute to your goal and aspirations? Do the ladies have the support system to assists you in case things go south in the marriage? Are you comfortable being the sole provider in the marriage? Are you going to spend your time and resources trying to solve other people’s problems? Things happen in a marriage and bear it in mind that when you’re marrying a lady, you are marrying her and her relatives and most importantly she will play an important role in determining the kinds of children you’ll produce for the next generation. These girls you described up there are girls with both physical and hidden spiritual luggage and couple with your own physical and spiritual issues that may not be visible to you which would likely create too many loose ends. This may either make or mar and sometimes delay your purpose from being achieved. If you are lucky enough not to move from one problem to the other. I don’t think most of these girls marry for love or fully understand marriage responsibilities, they most likely want to get married for the security that marriage provides. They tend to seek a partner that will offer a helping hand. They will be willing to marry anyone that has the means to help. You seem to be in SITUATIONSHIP rather than RELATIONSHIP. I know this because I have been married to one myself for about two years now and it’s been a tumultuous two years. I exhausted all the resources I had on trying to solve some underlying spiritual problems that she had that we didn’t know about and when things get tough, she was already contemplating leaving despite all the sacrifices I have made for the marriage without her contributing anything. It seems time had frozen for me and everything has gone downhill since then. The mistake I made that I will advise you not to make is that I didn’t had much expectation for the kind of wife I want to marry. I just wanted "a good person". Whatever that means now. We men tend to marry too low. Women mostly have an ideal man they want to marry--they use their head and not their heart, while we men use our heart and not our head; we just decide to marry for either beauty or personality. Please my brother, marry for purpose and not for sex and procreation.

Coronavirus1: I am 100% sure that nobody read this full economic text book of soludo too long give few guidelines is fine .But more grace to your elbow.
U think everyone is as lazy as you? I did not only read the piece from beginning till end but went back to review it line by line. These are the little things that distinguish acheivers from mediocres.
May God bless Prof Charles Soludo for this wonderful article. Covid 19 and economics have never been so dissected anywhere in the world. Whenever I think that Nigeria is blessed with brains like this in thousands and a Buhari is the president my heart bleeds, even upon reading this template the dullard in aso rock will still do nothing about it.
