Even before I served, I've been calling for the NYSC service year nonsense to be scrapped. It was during NYSC I realized they won't scrap simply for the following selfish reasons:

1. The vendors/contractors who supply uniforms, jungle boots, books, orientation materials and even food on camp are powerful people.

2. Most of the state government and federal government schools are under-staffed. Some schools don't even have permanent teachers for important subjects like English, Physics, Economics, Financial Accounts, etc. Year after year they use NYSC members to run those subjects.

3.Some private organizations in places like Lagos, Abuja etc prefer to use NYSC members for cheap labour. They use them to handle graduate jobs and pay them stipends without any commitment to employ them permanently after the end of the service year.
I've always known it was one huge racket even back then but as times have changed there should be a push to make it optional, after all it would also save them having to pay allawee to the people that do not want to partake.

I'm sure there's people that see value in the program as they might have problems finding fulltime jobs moving forward let them do it and allow those who want to opt out opt out.

Truly believe it should be optional instead of mandatory, at least we would have fewer people going through the hassle of forging certificates for a useless program that doesn't even guarantee competence anyway

This country is quite unbelievable. NYSC went to court with evidences to show that the discharge certificate being paraded by the Enugu state governor is fake and not issued by them.



Yet somehow, the court there's no enough evidence to conclude the certificate is fake shocked



E go still reach one stage for this country, only ex-convicts and certificate forgers will be allowed to contest for elections.
Can't they just scrap that useless program. Not that the purpose of which it was established has not outlived it's purpose and Nigerians aren't more divided than ever.

Would even be better if Nigeria had like an Israeli program where people get paramilitary training and something useful not that mandatory 1 year of waste they subject Nigerians to

People don't watch ball outside EPL I'm convinced. Doku is not the guy you allow join City. He's even still raw and can still be a lot better. He has just 2 moves and it's barbecue chicken alert with EPL defenders.

Guys like Doku might struggle in big games but you see those small small PL teams that Liverpool, Chelsea, United, Arsenal will be sweating with he will help City wipe them 4 or 5.

Stop believing the news media. They are lying to you.

Disbelieve the stories from both sides.

America will betray Israel. The writings are on the wall.
Is this even possible? Can you betray yourself? Well maybe with Woke Joe Biden as president but America and Israel are siamese twins too joined at the hip for this to even be possible

Ayton 7ft playing like Muggsy Bogues. Looks like he's joining the list of #1 pick bigs that were busts

As for Wemby I saw their last game and I was so confused, has Popovich lost it or are the surrounding players just jealous of Wemby and trying to show they also matter. How is it in a 4th quarter close game and you're running your offense through fvckin Zach Collins? Wtf is a Zach Collins?

If the Spurs want to be competitive anytime soon, assuming they're not trying to tank again. Their whole offense should be centered around Wemby and their pieces have to fit around him. Sochan and Collins are two guys that I am confused to what they do on the court. No reason the Spurs shouldn't compete for a play in spot this season if they get their rotation right

Shey KD for just stay Golden State jeje. Everywhere he's ran to he's been left holding the bag. Let's see if Beal and Booker actually recover from these injuries..

Looks like Murray has picked up an injury already. I don't know what is happening in this era maybe it's the food but it's like everyone has completely lost their ability to be durable.

I look at guys like Stockton and Reggie Miller who played over 17 seasons and played less than 80 games 3x combined. The contrast between them and this era couldn't be more stark

You can't marry multiple wives in some societies. And the financial impact of divorce can be utterly devastating. Sometimes it's simply cheaper to keep her and just maintain spare tire outside.
Not legal marriage obviously. You're only bleeped when you have the government involved though I was speaking purely in an African society context

But even anywhere else I believe you can maintain a harem instead of dealing with the embarrassment of a spouse exposing you for cheating

On aggregate, Dumbstarts will be going 19-0.

Kane is banging in goals at 30 and may hit 40 league goals at this rate. Simply because Burndisleaguedown have many useless defenders, scattered all over the clubs.

Batshuayi became a legendary BATMAN in 4 months, in Germany.
Legend that didn't win Golden Boot? What exactly did he accomplish

Darmstadt are 100x less valuable than Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham. If they can chop 10 and 7 then why is Darmstadt news?

This is what happens when people keep encouraging violence in the name of toughness. A sport that is not about combat encouraging people to fight, it was bound to happen. All it just takes is the right set of circumstances and an accident like this was, leads to irreparable consequences.
You can be tough and fair. I use example of guys like Gary Payton, Dennis Rodman, Tony Allen, Dennis Johnson,Olajuwon, Duncan. Tough but fair.

What you find is a lot of players hide behind the mantra of toughness to hurt people look at what Draymond did, can you imagine he broke Sabonis rib and the rib punctured his lungs. Or that rubbish defender at United Lisandro abi wetin be him name. Look at Brevin Randle that college player that literally stomped on someone's head while he was on the ground

In a sport like ice hockey where you wear blades on your shoes there is no circumstances where your feet should ever leave the floor. This mofo threw a wheel kick. I can't even imagine being related to that guy. I would sue him, sue the team that employs him and sue the league

Nothing I hate more than seeing blowhard players who aren't even defensively sound hide behind the fact that it's a tough sport to potentially end careers and in this case lives.

Players like these should be spotted early and weeded out of the sport. Part of being an elite competitor is being your brother's keeper and prioritizing the safety of not just your teammates but your opponents

Harden to the Clippers. Hmmm I'm surprised they didn't trade Russ as well.

Not big on this trade, I question the fit. Who closes? Cause Harden, Russ, PG and Kawhi are all guys that need the ball maybe PG and Kawhi needs it the least but we've seen Russ and Harden together I just don't know if they fit. I still think guys like the Nuggets will run them out the building

Truly heartbreaking and I agree there has to be consequences because in my years of watching the sport, I have never seen anything like that.
Even as someone that has high tolerance for gore that was tough to watch. People can say it's a mistake but what fvckin type of mistake is that. Drunk driving and accidentally killing someone behind the wheel is also a mistake but there's still need for punishment.

Players really need to be taught that you owe it to your opponent as much as your teammates to also protect them out there so you can compete against them another day. It was just unconscionable what that fool did

Who saw that poor hockey player that got his throat slashed on the ice rink in a hockey game in England and lost his life.

There needs to be an investigation on the offender responsible. I've been watching hockey for sometime now and I've never seen somebody throw a wheel kick while skating and checking an opponent. At the very least he should be banned from the sport I'd say charge him for manslaughter too

Playing hard should not be at the expense of being your brother's keeper

He was robbed. Even the boxing community (British boxers and neutrals) spoke in unison on this. Where have you seen a fight with no post fight conference by the 'winner' considering the fight ended without any incident

The judges just did what they did to cover the yansh of boxing. In a close fight with a knockdown one judge scored it 96-93. Ridiculous scores in close fights = Clear fix but they had to do it to preserve the Fury fight

Tbh Francis is not all that bothered about the result. He just earnt himself a cool $10M when His previous best was $600k. Expect Him to face Usyk,Joshua and Wilder over the next two years with the credibility this fight has given Him and Probably make a cool $50M+ in those fights. There is a reason why Conor Mcgregor is constantly goading Canelo on social media. Dude saw the amount of money He made during the Mayweather fight and hasn't been able to let go ever since. My Guy is eyeing another $100M pay day.
Francis won before stepping into the ring.

The more I see him though I don't even think it's primarily about the money for him. The guy actually wants to box. McGregor is more of a Social media influencer at this point.

Little corrections he can make with his stance. More southpaw cos his left is stronger.

The way I see Francis, MMA might be his secondary priority now. He has won the belt with the UFC. Walking away from the security of UFC and putting his future means of survival in jeopardy tells me how badly he wants to box.

Nah, Tyson is on holiday. Ngannou will get a shock against a heavyweight that takes him serious. Tyson didn't even land a single body shot
Fury doesn't really land body shots like that. Plus Ngannou's core is levels. Eating MMA kicks in that region definitely hurts worse than punches.

I've always thought and considered this era of HWs mediocre and this fight further exposed it.

This is an Ngannou that has not fought since January last year and coming off a torn ACL and MCL. The fight should not have gotten to the point where the agreement is unanimous that he was robbed.

I was not watching that fight at any point and thought Fury might finish him here and that's quite wild. Even 40+ year old Floyd was able to do that with Connor

That judge is most likely in a Saudi brothel now enjoying his bribe money.

After Ngannou ate Fury's punches like indomie noodles Fury gave himself brain and started tagging him better from distance.

The shame would have been too much from boxing and it would have also put the Fury/Usyk big money fight in jeopardy.
Lol an Ngannou win would have been a disaster for all parties involved. How do you sell the Usyk fight, hell how do you sell Boxing moving forward

Ngannou is absolutely not the guy you want to fight in a phone booth. Distance is your best friend. Make him miss and let him start doubting himself

I think Usyk is the one that can beat Ngannou easily. While AJ is the easiest for Ngannou to beat

Wilder is also not a real heavyweight boxer, he is likely more undisciplined than Francis sef

So that might go 50-50 if he can't avoid the Wilder power punches
Wilder will be wise to not trade with Ngannou. Did you see that elbow Fury threw and how Ngannou didn't even flinch

Technique and cardio will be his weaknesses the technique part can be fixed, Ngannou is a fast learner. He took his foot off the gas those last two rounds probably thinking he had done enough.

Perhaps Fury did not take him as seriously as he should have but Ngannou showed me today that he was built for this

What we have always heard is that Ngannou's chin is tough and he proved it today. Based on that i agree with you cos Wilder's chin doesn't appear as durable.

Fury should stop messing around and face Usyk.
Ngannou's chin is actually his strongest attribute not even his punching power

Nobody is knocking Ngannou spark out. You can only outpoint him. I pity any heavyweight stupid enough to think he can stand and trade with Ngannou. Not even Wilder can try it. Cos Ngannou no mind to chop 3 to land his 1 that will send you to Valhalla

Fury is in no shape to face Usyk in December that's for sure
