Dont be surprised, Ghana 'Yes we can'. Algeria is also going through this afternoon.

ajadudu:
Ghana vs Czech - Czech player gets red. Ghana wins PK in the game

Ghana vs USA - Ghana gets a PK

Ghana vs Serbia - Serbian player gets red. Ghana wins PK in the game

Ghana vs Australia - Australian player gets red. Ghana wins PK in the game


Ghana have been awarded more PKs than all of Africa combined in the history of the WC.

Oh and you forgot to add, FIFA's headquarters is in Accra . Too bad people always prevents Ghana's goalbbound shots with their hands

If there is anything FIFA has regretted so much in their history, it has to be the association they ever had with Maradonna. They hate the guy with a passion.

Believe me, this hullabaloo is just to discredit the man with the win against Nigeria. No wonder Pele, who is always under the table of FIFA, came out earlier to say that Maradonna is not a coach.

Guys I can't thank you enough. Very intelligent and clever ideas there. Though I was scared this will turn into bashing, you guys proved how matured you are. I spoke to my wife and I am going to visit next week.

The house girl will leave when I come back to town. Will arrange with my mum to keep her for me till my wife comes. I told my wife the girl is innocent of all the things going on and that it is my feelings that is causing the problems here.

Again I can't thank you guys well enough. You guys just reminded me I could join her.

Thank you guys, thank you Nairaland you just saved my marriage and my faith.

I am married to a wonderful lady. We have two lovely kids and by God's grace we lack nothing. However my wife had to go outside the country to further her studies. She took our last son with her on the trip and I sent my older daughter to my mum because of my busy schedule.

That is where the problem is. I am currently living with a househelp alone in our house and all of a sudden the girl has become very beautiful in my eyes. Not that she was not but it seems I cant resist her now.

I have managed to overcome the temptation up till now but I don't know for how long. As if she has noticed it, she keeps exposing herself in a very indecent ways and I want to send her away till my wife returns.

Will that help? My fear is that the sex 'appetite' is still there and I might take it outside; something which I dread so much.

I am not looking for insults please. I want genuine and clever advise. This is no joke, my future depends on this. How do I overcome this urge?

@Akwasi.
Please dont let "some" people drag you into that useless argument of comparisons.
The sky is big enough for ALL Birds (that have wings), to fly.
I am Nigerian and l can boldly say l am impressed by Ghana's performance.
Such performance should be an inspiration to other African teams.

While the game was going on, l was constantly reviewing Nigeria's performance yesterday, with Ghana's own.
A few difference came up:
1.)The Ghananian players ran 100meters for the whole 90minutes! On the other hand, you can see Nigerian players "strolling around the field" even when our team was under pressure (if you doubt this, pls review the clip of our match again)

2.) It seems the "energy levels and commitment" of the Ghananian players was way above par.
They seem hungry, determined and are ready to challenge the Serbians 50/50, for every blade of grass on that field.  On the other hand, Nigerian players, and this would not be the first time, are lackadaisical, sluggish, looked and acted tired and at times, distracted on the field of play.

3.)I also noticed that the Referee was less than partial, even though Ghana won!.
The officiating was biased in favor of Serbia (every contact was a foul against Ghana) and l always wonder why it must be a "whitey" that should be officiating a match between African Vs. European team? Why not get someone from China to officiate?

4.) It also caught my attention when the SKYY commentator was concluding the commentary and he said: "This is a big win for Ghana's foreign coach, the first win by an African country and they were coached by a foreigner"! examine that indictment/insult (maybe well deserved) of our sensibilities? Even if we must loose, cant we loose honorably? And if we must win, must we not win with our honor and integrity intact?

What stops we African countries from training our own coaches so that Europeans would hire them? How much does it cost to apprentice a Siasia with Arsene Wenger or Sir Alex or Jose Maurinho, compared to what is spent o jamboree to S/Africa by 68 Nigerian senators?

Finally, l say a big congrats to Ghana.

On a general note, there is no need to beef or ridicule Ghana.
We can learn from them after all, they did learn from us, some years back?
As they say, Pride goes before a fall. Until we get our acts together, we need to temper down this "Giant of Africa" attitude of ours.
Lets put our money where our mouth is!
If we must boast, then let our actions, development, security, infrastructure, organization, zero-tolerance for corruption, respect among international community, success in education, sports and nation management, speak for us.
Empty vessels they say, makes the most noise.
I know we are a very proud people and we should be; with all the blessings God deposited amongst us! But we need to start acting like a blessed nation so much so that God himself will be proud of us!

Imagine if it was a small country like Ireland or Japan or Switzerland to mention  a few, that are blessed with just 50% of our natural resources and stable geological landscape?

Nigerians, "think, please think and rethink our lost glory"!
Remember the days of "Ghana must go"? Remember the days of 75Kobo = 1 GBP!
I pray we are not the prodigal son of this world.

Truth hurts, a lot!

LastPage, I am really impressed and proud of you especially abt your first paragraph of comments. Keep it on in your private life and you will succeed. That thing called jealousy has destroyed so many people and countries. Unfortunately, some people instead of taking inspiration from others and learning rather bellitle and ridicule their achievements and believe me it is a principle in this world "WHAT YOU DON'T RESPECT, YOU CAN NEVER ATTRACT".

Most Ghanaians respected and appreciated Nigeria when they won the Under 17 world cup in the late 80's and God blessed Ghana with the same cup in 1991. Ghana rejoiced and respected the Nigerians for winning the Olympic gold in soccer. Believe me until you respect what your friend has, you cannot have it.

Have you wondered why most people go back in life? Its probably because they love it when their neighbors fail. What you love you attract. If you love it when others fall, you will fall. If you hate it when others succeed, you will never succeed.

Digriz:
we dnt hate ghana bt this issue of hating ghana or what started frm you ghanaians,you people dnt wnt to hear any good thing coming frm nigeria and so vice verse.

dig, thats ok then. if its do me i do u then i understand  

but fyi i was jumping all over wen naija won the olympics in 96

agabaI23:
Where did you get that from? Did you read most of the thread or just one comment?

aga, thats y i said some

y do some people here hate anything Ghana? The point remains Ghana has three point and most importantly give Africa its first victory. Hope Nigeria are able to perform like the Ghanaians did if they meet Greece. Its better you don't criticize the Ghanaians because they always somehow manages to prove you wrong. Remember the under 20 world cup and ANC in Angola.

lol. I guess Real Madrid needs Enyeama to stop messi for them. Heehehehehehehe

SSaemoenl:
As we too focus on messi, they obtain the fear about messi, now what great have we seen on the much talked MESSI?
We have lost the cultural way of defending and attacking games.
Big man game from Eagles, still  expecting much!

Are you sure you are not listening to comentary?

Its official now. Las should bring out Yak and bring in another defender to take care of Messi. Messi needs 5 nigerian players around him any single time. I told Shittu and Yobo to stop making messi more angry with their mouth talk, they will not listen. Now see the guy, he is 'messiless'

These Argentine's have taken this match like a training grounds match. They are really teaching the Nigerians soccer lesson.

Nigeria's duel is very difficult. Honestly Nigeria might lose the match against Argentina but they can bounce back against Greece and the other Koreans. I think CTV, Ghana and South Africa are the only other African countries that can raise the mighty flag of Africa.

Viva Africa!

I am all for CTV. CTV will lead the African dream. They are currently the greatest African team, probably followed by Ghana, South Africa, Nigeria and the worse teams I guess will be Cameroon and Algeria.

if you can pay $800, we are in business. I can deliver the application to you in 15 days

And to all those Nigerians who believe Ghanaians are hostile, go check 'Ghana Must Go' and you will understand a state sponsored Xenophobia

It is lack of self confidence that causes people like Gbawe to think everyone is looking down on them. I don't believe he can be serious when he implies his wife - a Ghanaian- is nice whilst all the rest 99.9999% are bad. This type of thinking comes from obsession borne out of hatred. The world and for that matter the people around you reflects back to you. If you are nice, the world is nice to you. If you are arrogant, the world is arrogant to you. If you don't respect yourself and have very low self value of yourself, the world will treat you as such.

You can believe what you want. Ghanaians are everything you dream them to be. But know that you are not the only Nigerian who has been in Ghana and if you are crying after 9years when someone had enjoyed for the past 20+ years, then you must do some self checking.

Without mincing words, I think the problem with Gbawe is lack of self confidence

mazaje, may God 4give ur balsphemy. So u think u created urself abi? f**l

Be who u r or whoever u r, u can take ur trouble away from here men. U really bore me. How can u call Heaven in ur post when u dont believe in the owner of Heaven Shaddap
[quote author=Be who u r link=topic=428658.msg5877966#msg5877966 date=1271088213]Here i was sitting quietly in my office until my life was altered due to something silly my supposedly fiancee wrote exposing ourlives for no just cause and setting me up for christians who dont know me to insult me to the highest heavens. If she even spoke to me about this, i wont be this demoralized and shakey at work reading all these evil statements made by people calling me this things. Why would she go this far to do it. And your saying i shouldnt blame her. You all forget the 6 pages of insults that strangers from no where have been pouring on me and the people that know me reading this. How far this write up would go is something else. From all your advices she is getting married to a devil because i am not a christian, why should i just let her be in peace since that would stop all these slanderous statements and let me be. We have done so many things together as a couple and this issue of the christian or no christian thing has never cropped up until now on the internet. How would you feel if it were you that you just woke up one morning and found your life being the centre of the storm for no just cause. Do you guys forget things easily? Have you not gone through all the name calling and atheist bashing due to her story. Why should she do this and your telling me i should chill and am childish because she praised me. What sort of praise is that? If she truely loved me why should she lay me out bare for people to castigate me because of my views and these people dont even know me. What sort of advice is she looking for that we havent weathered together for 4 years and we are still going on. In fact what ever. Am done with this episode. Whatever. I will fulfill her wishes so that this castigations will end and i will be in peace. Because there is no way i can ever forgive her for this humilation and if we are even together back, this issue will now truely rise every now and then. It was never an issue to me but it will now be an issue to me. I will have to accept that religious discrimination is truely alive and i am an endangered specie because of my views. I was deluded it will work and was planning to make sure it works to prove people wrong. I accept i was betting on the wrong horse and for those insulting Labake, she has done more for me today that i could imagine. Showing me this website makes me appreciate her more. I could have continued living a false life with Sia and not knowing she had the capacity to stab me in front of strangers. Now i know better and who i can truely call my friends[/quote]And stop saying 'people who dont know me' because u r nothing and just a waste of God's clay

And 2 state my case well, y will a 'Gentleman' not rather call a woman she claims to respect to sort things out. This guy is a fake

Wot is wrong wit the OP. Is this how u Nigerians value as a gentleman? I read the post of the suppose 'Perfect Man' and can only wonder if its by 'Nigerian Standards'

It is only ignorance that makes u see him as he rs not. Your guy is as fake as he wants God to be to u. It can only be that there is something wrong with your reasoning else some1 who hates and doesn't read the Bible or the Quran cannot make arguments based on it and convince u. Shine your eyes

Cyberfreak:
Akwasi, so Jesus asked you to love them abi? And you still come here to offend them by calling them terrorists.
And I believe there are explanations behind parts of the Qur'an that talk about warfare and that those parts were prescribing the fights they engaged in back then against their oppressors. I have muslim friends and they are quite good people, if Islam was a violent religion like you say it is, I am sure muslims would not rest untill they finish killing non-muslims

Cyber u r right. I love them and I'm glad I know them for who they are because that makes me smart when dealing with them Believe me, if they had the chance, they will wipe out every single non-muslim especially Christians in a minute. Why will they be offended when they are called for who they are? How do you call somebody who is ready to die and take innocent people along? Is it necessary to kill innocent women and children because you hate America and Christians? The irony of it is they kill each other in the process(fellow muslims). They slaughter themselves. Sorry, I hope I can have a different name for them but terrorist seems more appropriate. You can suggest another one

My fellow Christians I thank God for the peace he gave us. Some Christians may do evil but our Lord and Saviour ordered us to love and love even our enemies. Can you imagine Jesus asked us to love even these terrorists?(Muslims)

My fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, will you please leave this arguments? It does not help your faith. If we all can remember well, when the pharisees wanted Jesus to prove that He was indeed the Son of God, He defiled them. We have nothing to prove to them. God and Jesus for that matter do not need us to defend Him or the Bible. As He told the disciples at the garden of Gethsame ('If I need to fight, I can order Angels from Heaven to descend and fight'), we do not have to fight for HIM. We are not like the other religion where you are suppose to bomb yourself in the face of other people who do not agree with you. Jesus actually commanded us to love our enemies including those who want to bomb us. Christianity is based on love and it is with that alone that we will please He whom we serve and be the light He wants us to be. Leave these people alone to continue blaspheming. My only concern is they are speaking against the Holy Spirit as well which is unforgivable. They have some serious questions to answer later.

Note to the blaspemes:Don't ask me anything because because I will not reply you.

Father I thank you for who you are; Faithful. I can always trust you and I'm taking this step of faith based on this. I will never regret it in Jesus's name and I know after everything I'm going to come out victorious. Father, I promise to continue to feed the poor and after everything is done, I will give 40% of the profit to the poor.

Certainly we must always be prepared for the KING of kings. Thank you very much evangelist. To those of you who thinks its not happening anytime soon, listen to the news and read Jesus's prophesy about the last day's in matt. 24:3-8 and you will realised that HE talked about all the things happening in the news. If you read further, you will realised these are the end times. Its crucial, brothers and sisters in Christ, its crucial

Those of you reading this topic and have not yet had or cause an abortion, thank the Almighty GOD. Abortion is a first degree murder. It is the cruest form of murder I've ever known. You can't even compare it to stabbing a sleeping person.

What we are forget is we were like that thing we call embryo. That is the start of life. As soon as that fertilization takes place, that person is a day old. If you kill it, you have killed another human being and what makes it very cruel is you have killed a helpless and indefensible human being. Its worst than killing a sleeping man.

May GOD forgive all of us. Amen

Thank you GOD.

I bless YOUR Holy name and YOUR only begotten SON JESUS
May YOU continue to show YOURSELF in my life
And direct my steps always.

Thank YOU my FATHER

WOW! People have praises and songs for GOD. So do I. I was wrongly accused recently and for GOD, I would have been in Jail now. Because somebody wanted my position at work, I was framed and I cried unto HIM and he delivered me and gave my glory even in front of my accusers.

Join me to sing

HE is a Miracle working GOD
HE is a Miracle working GOD
HE is the ALPHA and OMEGA
He is a Miracle working GOD

HE has brought laughter to my lips

What a way to die?!!! First of all my heart goes out to all the bereaved family. Its sooo sad when tragedy takes a loved one. One thing about tragedy is that you dont see it happen and when it does and you lose a loved one who prior to it was not sick or not giving any indication of leaving this world, believe me, it can really bite you.

On the issue of who to blame, I personally think its not necessary and doesn't have to come in. I bet you if any official or officer responsible knew this will happen, they would have acted. That is why sometimes it is rightly called 'ACCIDENT'. Only GOD knows why HE makes these things happen.

I in my physical form can say its because HE really loves us that HE has to sometimes do 'SELECTION' to stabilize this world. HE in HIS wisdom bring certain people together, lets say in this case a bus full of 'saints or sinners' who HE has to get out of the World. With powers far exceeding anything we can imagine, HE does HIS work in any way HE pleases. But we should all remember its for the greater love far exceeding any we can imagine that HE allow tragedies to happen. Like the Tsunami in Indonesia, the devastating earthquake in Haiti, the terrorism and the so called counter terrorism going on in the world and all that.

The good news is that in the end, HE has promised us rest in HIM. HE has promised all those who do good, good ending. That is why I'm always glad when a righteous person dies. It's not a loss, Its a rest. Who wants to remain in this messy world anyway?!!!!!
