Yakubu is a type of plague caused by an unredeemable curse placed on it's victim by a coven of witches from his/her village. It last manifested on ayegbeni yakubu during his infamous world cup miss. Earlier reported case dates back to the 12th century. Anybody under this spell can neva be of any usefulness to the society any longer.

Some countries just passed into law that any of their citizens infected with yakubu should be executed to just send them of their misery, not until yesternight, the yakubu plague was thought to have been just a myth.

I no dey follow you guys understand the rules of football well well even though I enjoy football game when I make out time for it. Wetin come pain me today be say i watched the Ivoriens and the koreans play this afternoon and after getting all excited and (making inyanga in the lunch room at my place of work) that an African team is finally restoring the glory of Africa, person come tell me say Cote d' ivoire still no qualify.
So all those beautiful goals are for nothing? Can somebody say something that can comfort me here because I no follow find that funny.
Drogba did us proud, he understands the mathematics of football and knows the angle to take his headings. I was proud of them and at one point in time he was being attacked by two koreans yet he steadied the ball for some minutes "like the king of football that he is", quickly did his calculations and found an escape route.
Even when they did not qualify, I am happy they still brought some of Africa's pride home. I was even wondering why all the African teams were being beaten by the Europeans and American teams if Cote d' voire can stand up to the Koreans and play them serious half field like they did today. Is it that these other teams were brow-beating the African teams or that the African teams gets some inferiority complex before these teams. All the same it's all a game and we should not take things to heart. Well done Cote d' ivoire

yakubu's yakubued open net opportunity has never ceased to make the swedish football news, since the swedish television has decided to show nigeria march in support for lagerback, they kept showing that "one" goal that would have made nigeria play uruguay today,
