Make Nigeria no try rubbish name any stadium after Pele oo... We go name our own after okocha, kanu or oliseh if dem die

Faber:
don dump Tinubu and is now supporting the late Pele, which means the late Pele stands a chance to win elections than a living Tinubu...nawa o, very sad indeed. Anyways what Cape verde did is understandable cos they share the same Portuguese heritage with Brazil and are Brazil's neighbours on the Atlantic Ocean. Vote Peter Obi, before them carry our stadium dash foreigner that never played any role in our national life.

Dead Goat = Pele
Living Goat = Messi

I suggest the Ogbe Stadium in Benin city, Edo State should be renamed because that was the stadium Pele played in when he visited Nigeria.

Wetin konsain agbero wit overload? Cape Verde get 25,000-seated stadium! That's about the size of Eyimba Stadium for Aba. Na for de place Eboes fest learn Nsogbu Nsogbu politics dem! Naughty Igbos wey wan rule the Zoo wit 5 percentage voters. Dat na de size of one family compound for Gerin Alimi in Ilorin, Kwara state, in case you didn't know.

We can start by Renaming one of the stadiums around the country Pele Stadium,
But definitely not our National Stadium.

And we think MARACANA STADIUM in Brazil should be named after Pele also,
Charity begins at home...... we think!



Yeah!
Nice one.
Thanks for reminding us that Kaja.
SECONDED.

All of us @MANNA will personally write to the Edo State Government to look into that,
(With the very good and tangible reason you stated)
It will be a huge honor to Pele.

When I saw the heading of the thread, I wasn't surprised. I read that Cape Verde feel attached to their Portuguese speaking counterparts.

Maobichek:


I'm grateful that you know the meaning of "GOAT" in this context; it's only one and not more than one. Pele is the GOAT.

SlavaUkraini:
Death saw Buhari and Thïefnubu

and instead took Pele away.....

So unfair

Mr Balablu bulaba must die this year

He deserves it.

A goal machine indeed.

A combination of CR7 and Messi.
