Jorginho on Thomas Tuchel's 'weak mentality' comments:

"It was his feeling in that moment, he said that to us as well. We tried what we could to try and do our best. Unfortunately, it wasn't working anymore. The challenge now is to rebuild that confidence."

Rabí' Ibn Anas said: 'Verily Allāh has made this worldly fire a source of light and radiance. It is also a source of energy for the people of the world. But the great Fire (of Hell) is dark like tar. May Allāh protect us from it.

They will have to be dredging it every year because the sand from the North east trade wind will till end up on the river by February making it shallow again for navigation.

Sand business for those in the construction sector.

That is why I always insist all of us should hold our state governors to task to deliver and make our home states livable and economically buoyant. We cant abandon our home state and come to Lagos to shout on them to crate opportunities our home states did not provide for us

Lagos is the smallest in land size and the most populous state. It leads to pressure on available resources

In a country of 36+ states less than ¼ of them are viable this puts enormous pressure on the remaining ones due to no fault of theirs by and large, instead of us to put pressure on our elective representatives to make the remaining states viable we are blaming the overstretched viable ones.
Let me us the Northern states for example who import largely through Lagos ports I was thinking what stops them from coming together to dredge River Niger and Benue and build other supporting infrastructures so that they can decongest Lagos ports and create jobs in the process for their people? How about resuscitating the numerous textile factories in Sokoto, Kano and Kaduna? Or investing heavily in wheat production in Jigawa, Kebbi, Kano, Sokoto, Zamfara and the likes? Kogi has the potential to produce cassava, cashew in commercial quantity but we are yet to scratch the surface.

This is why I’ve always been against Gumi and everything he says about insecurity in the northwest . And this is why I will never agree Buhari’s government has done its best to on insecurity challenges this far

Cc: amoto94

Gumi was chased out of Saudi Arabia by the authorities for terror related activities I think and his claim to knowledge is questionable at best he's only enjoying the reputation of his dad who is well loved by the people. He is a dangerous man.
As for the arrest of the man I think he has been profiled long before his arrest. I wont say they haven't done enough with what I have seen and observed, just yesterday I was commuting through Abacha/Mogadishu Barrack in Abuja enroute to work in the morning I saw newly acquired armoured vehicles mounted on heavy-duty trucks for delivery. The military have not received the kind of support they're receiving under this administration since 1999 ask any military person you know and he/she will attest to this fact, you may argue that it is not enough or why are we not seeing tangible results then I will say results have started showing with arrests been made here and there and terrorists now running for safety due to heavy bombardments from our military and other security agencies.

The number of people trooping into Lagos on daily basis is causing more harm than good to Lagos it puts more pressure on social amenities thus making any noteworthy achievement look insignificant, other states and cities need to up their game in terms of social, infrastructural and human developments. There is urgent need to decongest Lagos.

Football is a game of fine margins.

Like poles attract.

The Labour Party Presidential candidate doesn't think climate change is a priority for Nigeria.

His response to questions on green energy/energy transition and climate change was terrible.
Someone should tell him that climate change is a NATIONAL SECURITY concern for Nigeria.

We also have commitments to achieve our Nationally determined contributions, Net Zero target and energy transition. Strengthening adaptation and resilience is essential.
Any candidate without basic knowledge of climate change science and Nigeria's climate action targets is not serious.

Secondly, you keep using china as a model, but you don't know the Chinese are racing toward becoming a key player in the green industry era.

Like I have always maintained there are lines you don't cross and once you chose to cross such you should be prepared to face any consequence that follows suit, we don't pick which line to cross at our convenience and not expect a pushback. To some it is their faith, ethnicity, family, source of livelihood, friends and others it is something other than those; I always avoid insulting the sensibilities of others but once you insult mine expect my reaction.

This is one of the most difficult statements I have ever had to write - and it is one which I hoped I would not need to do for many years. I am devastated that my time at Chelsea has come to an end.
This is a club where I felt at home, both professionally and personally. Thank you so much to all the staff, the players and the supporters for making me feel very welcome from the start.
The pride and joy I felt at helping the team to win the Champions League and the Club World Cup will stay with me forever. I am honoured to have been a part of this club’s history and the memories of the last 19 months will always have a special place in my heart.
Thomas Tuchel

La Liga president Javier Tebas is preparing a report for UEFA after criticising the Premier League for 'unsustainable spending' and for causing 'transfer inflation'.

N4bn stolen from military budget to buy Abuja properties. Other security personnel are under investigation by EFCC & ICPC too. Money meant for security. @woye

JUST IN: From a foreign trade deficit of N7.37 trillion in 2020 ,which was pruned down to a trade deficit of N1.94 trillion last year,Nigeria has recorded a whopping N3.2tn trade surplus in the 1st half of this year alone as export surpasses import to encourage diversification

Mainz sporting director Christian Heidel: "With Thomas (Tuchel) it came out of the blue. The sacking is grist to the mill of those who are against investors in football. It was purely an investor’s decision. Someone who has no idea about football probably thought that sixth place wasn’t good enough for him and said: 'Then let’s try another coach. After only six games, I can’t think of any other reason. But Chelsea will bitterly regret this decision – they won’t get such a good coach again so quickly."

Not all those who support a politician you like have sense.
Not all those who support a politician you don't like are idiots.

Idiots are idiots. Unfortunately, they end up tainting movements with their hypocrisy and vile utterances. Osaretin Victor Asemota

Donjazet what do you have to say regarding Uju's now infamous tweet regarding Queen Elizabeth??

Incredible how often LFC get left defending transitions with one man in midfield (Fabinho) nowadays. Not acknowledging the tactical importance of Georginio Wijnaldum helping defend transitions & thus not replacing him = results like this vs counter-attacking masters like Napoli.

How do some of you take someone that's like Francium serious is a mystery.

ixyi:
I wonder and worry about what you're trying to achieve with this news.

The same energy you used in condemning the others use it to condemn this one as well.

Shaykh Ibrahim Iyiorji was attacked at his house in Isu, Onicha LGA of Ebonyi State, on Sunday night, 4th of September, 2022 by gunmen alleged to be members of the terrorist group IPOB. Copied

airmark:
It matters, we shouldn't fall for such coming from Burnthisleaguedown again. Chelsea board will be foolish to cop such.

Klopp came from there and he has done well so far and Pep too.

We wont succumb to the opinions of people who lack basic understanding of how football works, those who are carried away by aesthetics and not substance. I have been shouting that we,need a DM and a creative CM to solve our team imbalance while some of you think that the coach was the problem.

airmark:
Why should we go for a sacked coach that just lost woefully at home to a team from a warring country?

Any coach that could pick Werner as his striker should not near our team please.

Does it matter?

[quote author=donstan18 post=116433396][/quote]Sacking a coach as tactically sound as Tuchel after he papered over big squad weaknesses (CBs to play a back 4, quality 6 with good defensive nous & central creators) without giving him a chance to even work with the new CBs (other profiles still missing),is such a rash decision.
