Why is it that in Nigeria, people don't have a bit of shame.
Your certificate has been certified as being forged. Instead of doing yourself and the country honor by resigning. You still stay glued to the position as if it is your father's property.
The height of shamelessness is even those defending their oppressors, sophisticated crooks and criminals on social media just for peanuts. Y'all should learn a lesson and honor up!


Thank you bro. Political office is held more as a property than a means of service... It all started when the old and ailing president reduced to resign despite his state...

Such a shameless attitude better be curtailed for the benefit of the future generation.

Arrogant idiot.
He is entitled to the Medal, whether he played or not (As long as he was registered for the tournament). Players like Steve Mandanda of France also got a "Winners medal"

[quote author=tstx post=69574204]A man after my own heart......... know your worth... never compromise

you are very correct. Ones u know your worth, you won't compromise. Some coaches intentionally bench some players ,only to use them to waste time. bringing a good player 2mins to match end is nonsense. For the fact he played qualifiers with them, he is definitely good.

reportminds:
Rebellious Croatian striker Nikola Kalinic has rejected a World Cup runners-up medal gifted him by his team-mates and coaching staff.

Kalinic did not play a minute at the 2018 Fifa World Cup in Russia.

Croatia head coach Zlatko Dalic had sent him home after the country’s opening game against Nigeria after he refused to come on as a substitute in their 2-0 win, citing fitness issues.

“Thanks for the medal, but I did not play in Russia,” Kalinic told Sportske Novosti

wait i'm still trying to figure out where some of these humans of nigeria originated from, because i'm not sure if it's God who created some of them honestly because God is love. Even i don't think it's the devil because what some of these people does is beyond the reasoning of devil himself....

Iam not arrogant or proud but I find myself wondering if were a footballer whether I will come on with two or 1 minute left to play.

I think the media propagated this in the wrong way,.... There's always two sides to a story.... They did not even bother to grant him an interview, if the coach was all right he wouldn't have offered him a medal after the acclaimed rebellion... My take

Kalinic has attitude issues. Even if he still felt unfit after the medical team had declared him fit, he should have obeyed the coach, gone into the field and proven that he is actually unfit.
so u suggesting he should have entered field and played like ighalo just to prove he's unfit abi?cheesy. U want his coutntry ppl to swear for him if he started playing rubbish?cheesy.

Here is what he should have done:
Get on the field, run around a bit, clutch his back and signal for the medical team. Croatia was already leading. That way the blame will be on the technical crew.

Hey! A person to be sent out of a competition squad will be deregistered!

So he isn't entitled to a medal! Read well, it was one of his team mate that volunteered to give out his own to him!

Mandanda is a second goalkeeper, he is entitled! He is part of the squad and not disqualified.

Probably, if the coach is convinced that he feigned it but Croatians won't judge him too harshly. You know he has a reputation for refusing to play whenever they try to use him as a late substitute but he doesn't complain as soon as he is named on the team.
