Nigeria's brand of Christianity never ceases to amaze me... Nigerian pastors now address issues based on sentiments rather than using the Bible which is the basis of the religion... I see why this country is such a backward one. 184 Likes 22 Shares |

Sports / Re: Moses' Rise From Mum Attacks To Chelsea by Ajpharm(m): 11:53pm On Nov 14, 2016 |
At that age, Moses named Zinedine Zidane and Frank Lampard as his footballing idols. The softly spoken and polite Nigerian became flamboyant and confident as he stepped onto a football pitch. He was a naturally gifted athlete who had the ability to perform the same leaping somersaults that he can do as a 25-year-old and it wasn't long before he drew the attention of London's biggest clubs. "We weren't the best team so we used to only draw crowds of two men and their dog, but once we got the word out about Victor, we had one hundred people come along, then close to two hundred, including many of my friends," said Loizi. "Before the game, I would get called up and asked 'is Victor playing?' If I said no, they wouldn’t come down! They only came to watch him as he was so amazing. So many clubs were after him and then Crystal Palace came in. I said to him, ‘look Victor there’s no way I would hold you back' and I asked him to come to Crystal Palace with me. "I said, 'if you sign for Palace you will get to the first team quicker than at any other clubs' and in the end he chose to stay with them. I remember his first game, which was against Millwall youth and he nearly scored from the halfway line. "He is a nice kid, we had a great time with him and as soon as he left, we lost a lot of our next few games. Although we eventually went on to win the cup which was, in part, down to Victor giving us confidence. "They say that one player doesn’t make a difference on his own, but when they are as good as Victor, they do in youth football. He was very helpful to his fellow players, he would always back them up and things like that." After Moses signed his schoolboy contracts with Palace, he was set up with a place in one of Croydon's best private schools, Whitgift. There, he continued his success at youth level by winning the FA Youth Cup for What gift. Grimsby school were blown apart by Moses as he scored all five goals in a 5-0 victory, who were managed by ex-Chelsea star Colin Pates, in the final back in 2005. Moses went onto sign for Chelsea for £9 million from Wigan Athletic in 2012, but has only now broken into the first team on a regular basis after Conte switched to a 3-4-3 formation. Conte's use of Moses as a wing-back has led to a five-game winning streak in the league with Chelsea yet to concede in their new formation. Loizi, who now works as a courier across London, is a Chelsea fan and is delighted with the impact of Moses after breaking through into the Blues's starting XI under Conte. "I think talent-wise and skill-wise he is up there with Eden Hazard, perhaps he needs further refining. Now, under Conte, he has a role and he carries that out. He has become more disciplined since the early days and Conte's tough approach will be good for him. "That skill he has, you don’t teach people that, he was doing things that not even an adult was doing. Someone either taught him in Nigeria or he was a complete natural. A lot of the stuff he does now for Chelsea wasn’t much different to when he was with us. "I am delighted with how he has come on and you can see some of the tactical things he has been taught to do, because when he was a kid he wanted to take the whole team on which I am sure he will still do for Chelsea, from time to time." http://m.goal.com/s/en/news/1862/premier-league/2016/11/14/29498592/from-being-attacked-by-angry-mums-to-chelseas-first-team-the |
Sports / Moses' Rise From Mum Attacks To Chelsea by Ajpharm(m): 11:49pm On Nov 14, 2016 |
Victor Moses’s early years in England were not easy, according to his first manager. At 13, he was attacked on the field by a woman for humiliating her son and accused of cheating while playing for “the worst team in the league”. Despite his struggles, though, Tony Loizi was convinced he had found a special player when he welcomed him to Cosmos 90. Loizi met Moses when the youngster approached the Tandridge Youth Football League team looking for a game after he had been resettled in England following the religiously-motivated murder of his parents in Nigeria. The 25-year-old has enjoyed a fantastic rise to become Antonio Conte’s first-choice right wing-back at Chelsea. But it was Loizi who introduced him to the English game after getting the permission of his foster parents to sign him up to play in the youth league just outside of London. The manager was so impressed by him that he still has the documentation of his former player to prove that he discovered the former Wigan winger. "We were the worst team in the league and he just walked up to us and asked to join the team," Loizi told Goal. "We watched him play and he was doing back flips and tricks. We all just stood there with our mouths open. I couldn’t believe it, he had a shot harder than a rocket. "I said, ‘what team do you play for?’ and he said ‘I don’t play for a team', then I replied, ‘you have got to be in an academy?!’ and he said ‘no'. I immediately went to his foster parents' house to sign him up and they told me his story. "There is a one-in-a-million chance that sort of player comes to an ordinary Sunday league side, it is almost impossible. They are normally snapped up so early, they are in academies before you know it. He came up to us, we didn’t find him, he found us!" Moses arrived in England when he was 11-years-old and attended a state school in South Norwood before joining Cosmos 90 FC as a 13-year-old for a seven-month period. Cosmos 90 ultimately folded after Moses left due to Loizi being unable to continue as the club's manager but he remembers the Nigerian's debut with huge clarity. "His first game was against Chipstead FC and they beat us 8-1 only a year earlier in the cup," Loizi, who played in Arsenal's academy, added. "My son was due to play in goal but fractured his arm so I put his cousin in goal who was only about two feet tall! I put Moses at centre-half who went to my nephew 'don't worry, I'll look after you'. "We won 10-1 and Victor scored eight goals from centre-half, Chipstead were one of the best as well, as their first team was semi-professional and all their parents and the manager were calling us cheats. "They said, 'he is not the right age' and I said, 'look we have the documentation, he is the right age, so tough'. I knew he would dominate as, when I first met him, we put some balls on the halfway line and he was scoring from there - and at only 13-years-old! "Another moment that I remember was when Victor goes up to the goalkeeper, puts the ball through his legs, turns around chips it back over his head and then beats him again. The kid was in tears as he absolutely humiliated him. "Then the mother of the child comes on with her handbag and starts hitting him over his head with her handbag as he humiliated him. I said to him after that, it doesn’t matter how good you are, you have got to be hustle. "He was like Gareth Bale when he plays for Wales. Without Bale, Wales are an ordinary or average side and without Moses, Cosmos 90 FC were worse than ordinary!" |

Health / Indonesian Man With Tumour All Over His Body.. by Ajpharm(m): 11:32am On Jan 08, 2014 |
[img]http://3.bp..com/-ktcIqu4pRLM/UsyFdJ7QpYI/AAAAAAACYvY/lbe-FieDSK8/s1600/0001.jpg[/img] An Indonesian man whose body is covered by hundreds of tumours has made a final plea for help as the rare condition robs him of his sight. Slamet, from East Java, is believed to be suffering from neurofibromatosis, a genetic condition which causes uncontrollable growths along the nerves. According to his brother Suwadi, the 59-year-old had a tumour removed from his waist in 1991. But six months later tumours began to form all over his face and body. Years later the condition has become intolerable and Slamet suffers constant pain throughout his body. Recently the tumours have started blocking his nostrils, making it difficult for him to breath [img]http://3.bp..com/-9SL0yZMON8U/UsyFd3lu5EI/AAAAAAACYvg/PcAIZO8JCVE/s280/01.jpg[/img] [img]http://2.bp..com/-4zfNdGm2XyM/UsyFe0A2DhI/AAAAAAACYvo/dukE350UxSk/s280/0002.jpg[/img] [img] Slamet is now unable to work and relies on handouts. Neurofibromatosis is the name for a number of genetic conditions that cause swellings or lumps. Although many people who have the condition inherit it from one of their parents, up to 50 per cent develop it randomly from a gene mutation before they are born. Despite their alarming appearance, the growths and swellings - called neurofibromas and caused by a growth of cells - are not cancerous or contagious.

He probably thought the chances of Mikel scoring was very low...because the Nigerian player had only scored 3 goals in his seven-and-a-half years at Stamford Bridge. Unfortunately for Lee that day Mikel scored his fourth goal. Lee Mitchell went through with his promise and got the tattoo. See the photos after the cut...

[img]http://3.bp..com/-o-buPqlREX4/Usxh9Q45xiI/AAAAAAACYso/WabjGlGTfpo/s1600/Princess-Stella-Oduah1.jpg[/img] I saw the Sahara Reporters news yesterday but decided to leave it alone until the Minister responds to the allegations. And she has, by erasing her educational references online after SR's report hit the net. According to the report by Sahara Reporters, Aviation Minister Stella Odua's Master's degree which she claimed to have obtained from St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville, Virginia, US and presented to the Senate in 2011 as a ministerial nominee, is fake, because the school does not offer graduate programs. Sahara Reporters learned from the President of the college that it has never in its 125-year history had a graduate school or graduate program. The Provost Vice President of Academic Affairs, and the Vice President of Institutional Development said “We don’t offer any graduate programs here.” Premium Timeswent digging and it looks like the allegation is true because by 4pm today, her profile page on Facebook was edited and all traces of St. Paul’s College was removed from the account. It was also removed from her Wikipedia page and her biography on the Ministry of Aviation website . See screen grabs after the cut...

Nairaland / General / Nigerians Named Amongst 8 Superior Groups Of People In The US by Ajpharm(m): 10:00pm On Jan 07, 2014 |

Chau and her husband, Jed Rubenfeld, just released a controversial (and some say racist) parenting guide called 'The Triple Package', where they declared there to be only eight successful and superior groups of people in the US. They eight are: Chinese, Jewish, Indian, Iranian, Lebanese-Americans, Nigerians, Cuban exiles and Mormons 'That certain groups do much better in America than others, as measured by income, occupational status, test scores and so on, is difficult to talk about,' Amy and Jed write. The couple identify three distinguishing features these eight peoples have that guarantees them success over others; superiority, insecurity and impulse control. Continue....... [img]http://4.bp..com/-9n2nJmWQS2Y/UsqK7mulj-I/AAAAAAACYZc/W0oe1sxO4Xc/s280/article-2534257-1A6FFDE100000578-213_306x423.jpg[/img] [img]http://2.bp..com/-A8lqk1lTcRg/UsqKjvYoReI/AAAAAAACYZU/gRQfOKss8V0/s1600/article-2534257-1A6FFDED00000578-925_306x520.jpg[/img] Amy Chau, 51, breaks down the 'Triple Package' for her readers as follows: 1) A superiority complex: Chau believes that any cultural group who innately thinks they are just better than others has an advantage. Ignoring the wars, genocide and abject human misery this kind of thinking has caused, Chau and her husband declare that 'the superiority complex is antithetical to mainstream liberal thinking...the stuff of racism , colonialism, imperialism, Nazism.' 2) Insecurity: Chau and her husband believe that a deep seated insecurity can be a motivating drive to achieving success. 'That insecurity should be a critical lever of success is another anathema, flouting the entire orthodoxy of contemporary popular and therapeutic psychology,' they write according to the New York Post. 'Note that there’s a deep tension between insecurity and a superiority complex,' the authors continue. 'It’s odd to think of people being simultaneously insecure but also convinced of their divine election or superiority.' 3) Impulse Control: Chau thinks that perseverance and patience are virtues that have been lost to most Americans - but still exist among her eight golden cultural groups. 'Impulse control refers to the ability to resist temptation, especially the temptation to give up in the face of hardship or quit instead of persevering at a difficult task.' Source |

Politics / Nigeria Takes New UN Security Council Seat by Ajpharm(m): 9:07am On Jan 03, 2014 |
Nigeria on New Year’s Day returned to the United Nations Security Council, just two years after she last served as a member. She is one of Africa’s two new members, the other being Chad. They will complete their current term on December 31, 2015. The third African member is Rwanda, which will complete her term at the end of this year. It is not clear why Nigeria chose to seek a Security Council seat so soon after her last term, and the government has yet to clarify the priorities it will pursue during the period. The Security Council, which has responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security, comprises 15 members. Its five permanent members are China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom and the United States; of the other 10, five are elected annually for a term of two years each. They take monthly turns, in an alphabetical order in the English language, to preside over the work of the council. Jordan has the presidency of the Council for January, and Nigeria, led by Ambassador Joy Ogwu, will preside in April. It will be her second time of leading Nigeria to the Council. In April, President Goodluck Jonathan could preside over the Council as he seeks a boost for his 2015 presidential run. Source |
