thanks for your explanation which shows musa's level of ability, i think we should accept him they way he is until we get a better option, castigating him all the time is not a welcome idea. The truth is the players we have now are playing all they know to how to do, nobody can give what they do not have, the earlier we accept that our players are not world class, the better for us, the clubs they play for in europe tells us more about their abilities. expecting musa to play like Neymar or Hazard is a big joke.
Thanks for the explanation. People asking to bench musa, let me ask... Replace him with who? When will people realize we can't play what we don't have. Musa is still our most dangerous player going forward.

Musa should come in from the bench. Dude most times plays like he left his thinking cap in the dressing room. Senseless football.
I don't think so. Musa is our most dangerous player going forward, forget that he makes mistakes but that's what players like him do, miss some, score some. C ronaldo, di maria, sterling, willian, etc makes lot of mistakes but they are always trusted because they can change the game anytime. These are players that always have a run at defenders at almost any opportunity. We should be glad we have such player in the super eagles.

People should get off musa's d**k already and face the real players that are under performing. Musa deseve to start every game.

He declined shaking hands with the assistant coach when he was substituted! I like him because he pours out his heart when he plays for the S.E's. I believe that he's a dedicated player and all that... He's just out-of-form.... I hope he'd start scoring goals pretty soon!
Football is more of a tactical game than brute force. Unfortunately emenike only has the brute force but lacks the tactical brain. But then in Africa we only appreciate players who only use their energy to play. This is why we all hate Mikel even though he is still the most technically sound player in our team (better than fans favorite onazi). Emenike should be benched already if need be. Yes he plays his buttt off but modern football requires more of brain than energy.

Also emenike is very proud, I first noticed this in the match against Iran at the world cup, the way he looked and shouted at babatunde with evil eyes because he misplaced a pass to him. He should concentrate on improving his game rather than looking for someone to blame. If emenike was in the level of Messi or Ronaldo, I'm sure no coach will be able to manage him.

Shame on all the so called football experts (sic... IKPEBA). Keshi invited a player from china everyone was like keshi has list it. That same chinko boy has score 2 goals in 2 matches.

Meanwhile fans favorite emenike has not scored in as many games this year.

See so called super eagles supporter. So because musa makes a mistake he warrants a curse? (Or did u say that because he is aboki?) We claim to be a football loving country but reverse is the case. We only get behind the team when they are flying, but once the team plays badly we start cursing the players. The real football fans get behind the team no matter what.

Musa has been and is still our most dangerous player for the past year. Keep hating.

I have not used sygic before so I won't defend it but comments I have heard about it is WOW, I have known about it for more than 2yrs but didn't sway to it since I don't drive then.

But the best map I have used so far is Nokia maps beta than Google rubbish map by centuries and you say google map has offline mode, u must be a joker my note 10.1 has free gps and still the map won't even find ur location free but the Nokia N97, E72 and E71 I have used all have free gps once you download Nigerian map worth of just 7mb u can do an offline route from lagos to zamfara with detailed step by step explanation this is not hear say its what I have done and used.
I have been using Nokia maps since symbian days and they are great. I use Nokia HERE maps on my windows phone (an upgraded version of the old symbian maps). Google maps is better and more advanced than Nokia maps, but when it comes to navigation, I prefer Nokia HERE navigation. The only downside with HERE maps is inability to search by POS which sygic handles like a champ. Also google maps is still the best map service in the world, but navigation and maps are 2 different things. When it comes to navigation, sygic beats Google and Nokia maps.

I have used maps before when I was using Nokia N97, the map was superb and something else infact it worked offline and always provide direction from one place to another until we were forced to adopt Android OS, I used the maps on BB Q5 recently it was ok but the Nokia lumia maps are slow and not as efficient as when Nokia still had all the stake in symbian.

If you want the best offline map its Sygic I have heard its the best and works like maggic in all african countries except that. Need to download african map sizes of 5xxmb or more you know naija nah, to download that no be beans.

I use a NOTE 10.1 and it aint easy using the maps on it in Lagos because u have to concentrate on driving, watching out for lastma, careful of okada and maruwa and also danfo drivers.
Nigeria offline map for sygic is not up to 100mb. Bros u dey fear? The whole map data is not up to 300mbbut it is a one time download and it works offline. I have a wireless internet I use at home, but when I want to download large files, I use my etisalat line for that. I can download 5gb worth of file with just N500

Etisalat has one of the fastest internet in Lagos (up to 5mb/s speed). So just subscribe to PAYG plan which is time based, u wl be charged N15 for every 5 minutes. Last time i did this with N500 i downloaded the latest ROM for my phone which is 1.1gb, and then 5 movies ,(each movie is about 800mb). All these were downloaded within 1hr which cost just N180. Imagine almost 6gb worth of download for just N180.

Note: u must have H+ or at least 3g on ur phone for u to enjoy this. If u are seeing EDGE then u are on ur own

drumma:
why do i need a license when I can get google maps navigation for free....
Yes u are right, if u think Google map does the job for u then OK. Google map is still the most popular map in the world. But if u want more, then try sygic. It is free to download and u can use it free for one week, after that u can decide if u want to pay for it or not.
Car TalkRe: Have You Ever Driven With Google Maps In Nigeria? by abatically(m): 11:37pm On Nov 12, 2014
@op, have u tried sygic GPS navigation? Then u will know google map is still learning. I have both but never use Google map, sygic beats its a$$ arms down. Google map is good but sygic rocks. Google maps need internet connection to work, sygic is completely offline and u will be surprised at the nooks and crannies this app knows, even gives u alternative routes allover the country, the ui is better and it even has HUD mode and the voice is better.

Actually there is still a ban on buying in jerry cans. But the problem with this country is making stewpid laws when not ready. This is why u can't go to NNPC mega station and buy In jerry can. In advanced countries u can't go to a gas station and buy fuel in jerry can. There are special cans that are used and they can be sold to u at the gas station.

But in a situation where there is no steady power supply and everybody has a generator set, how can this law uphold? Like I should bring my generator to the gas station every time I want to refuel? How logical. This is why even the lawmakers overlook this law and only try to enforce it whenever there is fuel scarcity. The gas stations then take the advantage to charge 50 naira whenever we buy in jerry can. Can we really blame them? Because to be sincere there's a law that prohibit buying in jerry cans.

If for example someone puts a 50 liter can of petrol in the booth of his car, and somehow he got involved in an accident and then BOOOM.. FIRE disaster. The lawmakers will come out and say they already banned buying of fuel in jerry cans even though they know it is impossible in this country (not until they provide constant power).

Not saying the front glass can't be replaced, but it is a delicate process and most engineers don't like taking that risk as it might damage the display. Of u go to Samsung office they won't do it either, they rather change the entire screen. I still have a lumia 920 with smashed screen, Nokia says it will cost 25k to change. I just left the phone there, not using it. I mean if I change screen of lumia 920 for 25k, how much I want come sell am?

The lumia 920 gorilla is even raised and easier to change compared to Samsung.

Not joking really. That gorilla glass is very close to the display. So there's no way to change the glass without hurting the display. Engineers prefer changing the entire screen.

I've uploaded the pictures. U can see the crack on the last two pics.
35K is too high. Mind u, u think that screen can be replaced with 5k? U got to be kidding me. That glass cannot be replaced on its own, it has to be changed with the complete screen which will not cost anything less than 25k. I changed my galaxy s3 screen for 30k last year when the gorilla glass got cracked.

It's The same loss other OEMS on the android platform including HTC have been recording on a yearly basis that Samsung recorded for the very first time. Just Admit that you crossed the line dissing Samsung in a review, not even a comparison. LMAO @ poor marketing. At least you admit that HTC is no match 4 Samsung in one aspect.
Build quality HTC beats Samsung, but that is where it ends. Its like HTC focused on the looks of the phone and forgot that people will actually have to hold the phone to use it. U can't type for long with the HTC one m8 without feeling uncomfortable, unless u put it in a plastic bumper case. With the lg g3 or galaxy s5, u can feel its comfortable to hold than the HTC one m8. I have both the HTC one and lg g3 and for me lg got better build overall even though its made of brushed plastic at the back. A good design is not all about aluminum, u also have to consider how it feels in the hand over extended use.

Design/Construction

It screams Beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All aluminum expect the sides that concern the volume controls. A beauty to behold, the ONLY Droid that comes close is the Xperia's, the plastics Galaxies are no where to be found, even if you use torch light, you won't still sight them talk more seeing them. Walking round school, dudes and gals looking at the phone with some even gasping. To quote one guy, " I have seen many android phones, but this is the most Beautiful I set my eyes on". For me, if this phone were a lady, I would have proposed.

10/10
No doubt one of the most beautiful android phones around. I have the HTC one m7, love the boom sound, m7 even got beats audio. I wanted to upgrade to m8 but decided to get the LG g3 because the m8's camera sucks.

Back to the design, it is a very good design, but I prefer the build of the LG g3. The HTC one m8 is fully aluminum which makes it slippery an uncomfortable to hold. Even the smaller m7 is less comfortable to hold than the bigger LG g3. The LG g3 is 5.5 inches while the m8 is 5 inches but the m8 looks bigger. Thanks to the small bezel on the LG.

All in all, the LG g3 has a better design. The m8 is good to look at, but terrible to hold. The only time u can enjoy holding the m8 is when u put it in a case. But then hiding it in a case hides the beauty of phone. I can hardly type with my HTC one m7 when not in a case. I hate the case, but that's the only way I can get a good grip on the phone. Bad design if u ask me and this is where Samsung and LG got it right.

You can call me a learner but how will you feel if you fall into the category of cars that have to be in the traffic just because someone's car was hit.
U have to live with it. Put urself in the position of the person that was hit. Or let's say u are driving ur boss's car and someone hit u, do u get out of the way and let the culprit run away? What would u tell ur boss?

Best thing to do is to stop and examine, let the culprit know he is guilty. If he accepts then u both can get out of the way to settle it. But if he claims he is not guilty then wait there until the cops or traffic control agencies show up.

@op, I really don't understand what u are driving at. Somebody hits me from behind and u expect me not to stop immediately where he hit me in order to check? U must be a learner. First if I decide to park, the culprit might run away.

Secondly, I need to stop at the point of contact to examine the damage and take pictures. If I don't, the culprit might claim I am the guilty one, especially of the damage is much. He might claim I was out of my lane, etc. U really must be a learner to think if someone hit u then u need to drive out of the point of contact in order to PARK.

I disagree, have you watch Nosa, Ogu played?
Nosa and Ogu? You got to be kidding me. These are still the same kick and follow players that make up most of the Nigerian team. Mikel is the only player that can calm the game down and keep possession ticking and open up space for the attackers to run into. He just needs to improve his final ball. I know u all want a player that will pick the ball and run at defenders, or shoot from long distance. Yes it is good to have.. but when every players in a team plays like that, then the team will be unbalanced. Onazi, Musa, Moses, etc are direct players, Mikel relies on his technical ability and we can't deny we really need him to be at his best.
