Samunique: Why taking an unfit player to the major tournament in the first place?
zolajpower: Take care asisat she's not Fit for that competition. Infact they re all struggling. South Africa will win that trophy
festacman: Likely she was never fully fit for our match against South Africa. If she was then she brought this injury to herself by playing half-heartedly. In my opinion, at this point and with her current attitude, she is placing FC Barceloba above wearing Nigeria's jersey.
May be playing without her will help.
valentineuwakwe: Story..na she fake the injury cos she no dey fit for the tournament in the first place
She was fully fit… The injury happened early in the game.
If anything, it was because she was playing “full heartedly”… She went in full tilt for that tackle, and you could see her knee buckle upon impact.
It was similar to Ndidi’s tackle at Leicester, and I immediately suspected a similar injury… Unfortunately, our coach’s tactic seemed to be to pump it to Oshoala to chase, and thus they kept her on. >
She was substituted in the 81st minute in the Falcons 2-1 defeat to South Africa.
GET WELL SOON, SUPERZEE!
You could see her knee buckle at the moment of impact (it was similar to Ndidi’s injury)… But unfortunately our Oyinbo coach had only one tactic - pump it up to Oshoala - and thus kept her on. >
coolvitus: That is why I don't listen to radio station anymore they will never allow you say your mind yet they will bring out phone number to call them they should just focus on music Biko all the things going wrong in this zoo still our tv /radio stations will never be objective about it always on the side of the government shame to all of you we are all going down together I assure you alll
See my post above…
Last August, ChannelsTV reporters were arrested and questioned by DSS, and also queried by the National Broadcasting Commission, for views expressed by the same Gov Ortom on Channels. Last April, this same ChannelsTV program “Politics Today” was queried, suspended and fined N5 million by the NBC for having a guest who supported IPOB. There are other examples.
During ChannelsTV travails following last August’s appearance and comments by Gov Ortom, NOT ONCE DID GOV ORTOM COME OUT TO DEFEND CHANNELSTV OR PRESS FREEDOM IN GENERAL! If the Governor wants a free press, he has to be ready to fight for it. Meanwhile, ChannelsTV is well within its rights to mitigate its legal risks and to protect its journalists. >
LAST YEAR WHEN NBC AND DSS QUERIED CHANNELSTV FOR VIEWS EXPRESSED BY ORTOM ON THE STATION, OR WHEN NBC FINED AND SUSPENDED CHANNELSTV, WHERE WAS ORTOM?! DID HE USE HIS BULLY PULPIT AS A GOVERNOR TO DEFEND PRESS FREEDOM?! >
lordm: I believe there is still humanity in you. Think before you talk. It could be a close relative tomorrow
If he’s guilty as charged, then GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH… Do you think the children he was trafficking are not other people’s “close relatives”?! SMH >
mazimee: We have a mentality problem in this country.
No, we don’t… Corruption thrives in Nigeria because almost everyone contributes to the corruption ecosystem.
I have said it myriad times on Nairaland… We have inept leadership, but Nigeria’s condition is the culmination of the actions (by commission or omission) of ALL NIGERIANS! >
What a DUMB fraudulent clout-chaser, it seems that the armed extortion money has finished… Spending oil windfall like a drunken sailor, instead of saving some for the future, is an “achievement” in this dumbo’s book? >
enonche85: Exactly what I was telling a friend yesterday. Guns are allowed in the US because their law enforcement can tackle it to some extent but not in Nigeria with our useless policing.
They CANNOT “tackle it” (to any appreciative extent)… There were about 21,000 gun homicides (20,726 by December) in the US last year alone.
Mass shootings (that is involving 4 or more victims) occurs more than 1x daily in the US.
Halfway through the year 2022, and there’s already more than 300 mass shootings… Chicago had more than 800 gun homicides in 2021, and over 1000 shootings by mid-year 2022.
This July 4th weekend alone, there’s been 57 shootings here in Chicago… NO nation can “tackle it”, which is why NO other advanced nation follows the US gun access model. >
Eaglernorwich: If you have watched the ongoing Women Afcon in Morocco,you will agree with me that West African countries are really lagging behind in terms of sporting facilities,here are the top 5 stadium in Morocco,yet they are not making noise.
Not the once we built hear and call Ultra modern, with running track.
1--TETOUAN'S STADIUM 2--THE FUTURE AL STADIUM 3--STADE-OF-ADRAR-AGADIR 4--BATTOUTA TANGIER STADE
That’s because Morocco has bid 5 or 6 times to host the WC… It probably has the most failures of any bidders, but keeps bidding. >
BUSHHUNTER: Morocco is like European countries in terms of development and infrastructures couple with her weather.
At a time the Morocco was agitating for inclusion of west Africa countries..when I read the whole struggles then it really baffled me for a great nation to reason along such a backward western region of Africa.
I was so happy she was turned down and her request was declined. Moroccans deserve better. Glad they stick to North Africa.
No, it’s not… It however benefits from its close proximity to Europe and very investor-friendly laws, to act as a gateway to Africa. >

festacman: This is pure lie. As his follower on Twitter, David Hundeyin is not particularly LGBTQ enthusiast in his tweets. Besides, he doesn't have rainbow flag on his bio.
The fact though is that ACTIVIST David Hundeyin is a rude and conceited gadfly but the INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST David Hundeyin is top-rated and his works are topnotch.
His only problem is not being able to build sacredness around his personality by relishing a tumble in the mud with even 'pigs'. Going much lower to confront a low, rubs off on his works and may eventually erode his relevance.
Would have been better for him to focus on investigative journalism with a withdrawn disposition that will mystify him and his works. Well, we all have our personalities and foibles.
David is great guy, nevertheless. Well, somebody said he is until his investigative bomb explodes near you.
With the caveat that I have only read his Flutterwave “expose”… So I would allow for the possibility that it was not representative of his body of work.
But it was littered with such BASIC ERRORS (re Stock Options, Insider Trading, the US SEC, etc.) as to be embarrassing… And unfortunately when a thesis is predicated on a faulty premise, it is invariably doomed to a fatally flawed conclusion. >
tunspiderman: I am reading all the comments and I am seriously surprised by them. Riddle me this, would he be responsible for the child if she decides to keep the pregnancy? Can he also abandon the child if she chooses to keep it after all it's a girlfriend, not a wife as you all eloquently put it?
You think Nigeria is like the West where Child Support is compelled?
Nigerian men abandon their babies all the time… Even some that are married do not support their matrimonial kids.
Abortion decision is not an easy one… But I believe she’s in a better position than us to make the decision! >
Mayemavins: I have been seriously contemplating, she Aborted my pregnancy after we both went to hospital confirmed it and we both agreed to keep the baby.
Moreover I really need the child, she connived with her sister and they Aborted it. I'm thinking to go the Police station to make a report and arresther!!
Pls should I? Many more things surrounded that Pregnancy. I really need a child.
How is it “your” pregnancy?! Primitive misogynist Nigerian men and their sense of entitlement.
You want her to possibly put her life in risk by carrying a baby for 9 months for your benefit. Meanwhile, if you decided tomorrow you no longer want, she is the one stuck with the baby.
Her womb, her decision… If you wanted a say, you should have married her (that is, if she would marry you). SMH >
