Ronaldo, Fernandes, Pogba, Luke Shaw and Wan Bissaka should all be rested. The likes of VDB, Telles, Lingard and the boys with less playing time should play.

But Jadon Sancho needs to start this match. He seriously needs a morale booster to kick-start his season at Manchester United.

Glory, Glory Manchester United.

If Moyes brings out a strong side (Highly likely), it will be quite difficult... Still, Ole should actually rest his main players against their weekend fixture especially with a chance of an upset in the Man City and Chelsea fixture.

Good luck to Chelsea and Man United (I expect all top clubs winning tonight)...

I will like to see how your second team performs tonight.

Good. I succeeded in making you research more about civil disobedience...
I'm so smart
1.So how is sit at home not peaceful?
2.How do you compel people to observe a peaceful protest. It is expected that a leader of a protest schedules dates, methodologies of protest or are you saying people just get inspiration on their own to protest at same time..lol


One of the problems of Nigeria's educational system is stereotypes

No sir... I have always known what civil disobedience means. I had to bring it to you 'cause you seem quite confused.

1. How can sit at home be said to be peaceful when those performing it are doing so under duress and at the threat of intimidation, injury and death??!

2. You can actually compel cowards (You know who I am referring to) to do anything by threatening them with violence and death, even going as far as making public examples of those who fail to comply.

See, when you have something truly meaningful to share, other than vainly grandstanding, let me know.

Meanwhile, my questions are still up there... Thank you.

DEEBOZZ:
I see Arsenal winning with a record 12 goals to nothing.

Come on you gunners (COYG)

It's Arsenal sir... Being coached by Arteta not Man City under Guardiola. Who wan score the 12 goals bayi??!

They will win, but never by that margin...

Arsenal can't even beat a Nigerian Secondary school football team by that margin.

Broveens42:
You still don't understand the concept of civil disobedience.
What do you even mean by bidding.
The last Time I checked, they just want his appearance in court, granted a fair hearing etc.
But your mindset could be so screwed that you think they are demanding for a ceremonial release.

As to your question. Correlation of civil disobedience to whatever you call bidding.

Civil disobedience is not a result of the expectation. The expectation is a result of civil disobedience. Get that in your skull Nigerian graduate

"Civil disobedience can be defined as refusing to obey a law, a regulation or a power judged unjust in a peaceful manner. Civil disobedience is, therefore, a form of resistance without violence." (Oxford)

That is the widespread meaning of Civil Disobedience...

It is collective decision by protesting group in the face of oppression. It is voluntary and non-violent...

Pray tell, how is forcing innocent fathers, mothers, children to do away with their sources of livelihoods, even at the threat of violence and harm equitable to this historic form of non-violent and effective demonstration against injustice??! How is destroying the business of those who decide not to be a part of such puerile and impotent act amount to or equal Civil disobedience??!

Answer these questions while noting you are yet to show the correlation between compelling defenseless people to sit at home (Using thugs and lowlifes at that) and getting the authorities to arraign an arrested criminal.

You will actually be learning something or even imparting anything if you didn't tenaciously hold on to the belief that you actually know more than everyone else.

Broveens42:
Lol. Thank you from running away from the obvious analogy I used to hit you real hard.
You were mocking a system of protest that was invented by someone that is yielding results; begging of politicians to consider our welfare and call off..
So if it's not effective, you think south east legislatures will meet for political solution? Or the new found concerns of other politicians on the welfare of igbos ?.. lol

Now I get it. You think a president is bigger than a country or a country is all about the president..that's why you are asking me how it affects the president. Lol.
Even the lawless ones(talibans) are still on their guard watching out for a change in social behavior. (Every leader is threatened)

You are still ranting and straying from the point needlessly... I ran away from nothing. I merely pointed out that:

Your sit at home has yielded absolutely nothing but dissatisfaction and discontent among Igbo people (FACT)! It has not brought any positive outcome with respect to Self Actualization, Nnamdi Kanu's court resolution, national recognition of your ethnicity, etc... If you see otherwise, then the onus is on you to clearly explain the positives from that wack idea.

No one ever said Buhari is bigger than anyone... You people are the ones unduly and unreasonably obsessed with Buhari's feelings, and trying laughably and vainly to get his attention.

So, once again... My question stands unanswered... Clearly show the correlation between pointlessly making innocent people suffer via forced (Not voluntary) sit at home and getting the nation's leaders do your bidding.

If you still fail to answer this simple question with clear facts, then I may desist from responding to you. Thank you.

Broveens42:
Hahahaha.

That is why no black man like you will invent anything useful ... it's just like laughing at the inventor of microwave for producing something close to gas ovums

Nope,it isn't... Your analogy lacks complete merit.

My question and reasoning remain succinct and precise... How does making Igbo people living far away in a region suffer affect a president who doesn't care nor affected in the first place??!

What is the simple or clear correlation between compelling (Look up this word) people in a limited region to stay indoors and getting the attention of leaders totally unaffected by whatever you do there?!

Answer this simple question sir... No need deflecting.

NaughtyBrainiac:
I just hope these guys will not eventually completely destroy the place and people they claim to be fighting for.

Oh they will... They will absolutely put their innocent people in misery by creating a huge mess which they won't be around to clean up.

Not just that... These very same simpletons will still be the ones to cry wolf when their people inevitably suffer needlessly.

Their stupidity is as pathetic as it is predictable.

Emergingnation:
Quest for secession isn't a funFare but a warfare..

Don't expect it to be easy, it wasn't easy for south Africans during apartheid regimed, they collectively forth very hard for many years, until they were liberated

South Africans didn't fight by cowering inside their houses and refusing to work or trade... They openly revolted and took over the entire nation. It was so bad that the whole world had to step in...

You see why we think many of you Ipob supporters are actually mentally ill-equipped to understand the very concept of self actualization...

Emergingnation:
It'll shocked you, don't under estimate the resolved of the Igbos.

Shhh... Don't open your mouth if nothing reasonable will come out.

You can't even explain clearly the correlation between starving and draining Igbo people of their livelihood and putting Buhari in a tight spot, you are here ranting.

“If the federal government refuses to bring him (Nnamdi Kanu) to court in his next court appearance on October 7, 2021, the entire Biafra land will be on total lock down for one month. The federal government will know that they cannot take us for granted any more."


How exactly does making lives difficult and unbearable for your very own people perturb Buhari who is far away from that region?!! It doesn't even affect your governors tbh.

Maybe there is something we are missing are here...

Timoleon:
What are you saying?

I believe he means a ratio of 100 patients to 1 Doctor.... A scenario we are not far from.

Good for them.... May more professionals get good jobs and career placements in Europe and other serious nations.

tooth4tooth:
Must you kill to rob This annoys me

That's the part I will never understand... You have dispossessed the person, why kill or maim him?!! To what sadistic end?!!

Sigh... She would have survived if prompt medical care had gotten to her.

If those taking her pictures yesterday had acted fast to staunch the blood loss and quickly wrapped up the cut, she would be recuperating by now.

Everyone should take heed and stay safe!!! All you young ladies going out with guys who you know nothing about, this is a huge lesson... If you value your life and well-being, flee from such accursed guys.

May her soul find rest!!!

tesseract:
Gosh...May she recover fast; Both physically, mentally and emotionally.

Excuse me?!! May she what?!!...

Eventually, nature always wins... Stay on its path at your own peril!

Earthquakes
Tsunamis
Landslides
Volcanic Eruptions
Flooding
Hurricanes
Tornadoes
Etc...

babzo:
Woww. This is someone who should be in government!

He is among the many who should be leading the nation... But your country men will rather have their idiotic and inept tribesmen in office at all cost, and based on widespread popularity!

If we can't agree and unite to elect leaders like this, then what is the point continuing as a nation?!!... Why not go our separate ways, let those who have chosen to be unfortunate continue down that part alone.

nymphomaniac:
This is a good read. Enough of Nigerian leaders painting utopian endgames for our currency. We either do something about it or face a further steep decline of the naira.

Painfully, Meffy knows all these things but instead, chose to chase ABOKIFX.

The only hope for our Naira is for the government to sit up(embrace good leadership and reduce import /encourage export, stop loan collection) cut off the rottening arm (revoke BDC licenses and embrace rate convergence) and cauterize the wound (continue the path of 1 and 2 above) before it becomes too late.

Meanwhile, what is today’s $ to N rate sef?

The government will do no such thing...

Reason?! They don't know or have a fvcking clue about how a proper economy works!!!

6 years... And not a real or visionary economic plan in place! Just taking loans to erect white elephant projects while diminishing internal productivity.

Laggatumuch:
Very poor lineup those placing bets,place with caution

Poor how??! What other line-up were you expecting sir??!

Carabao is a second squad competition, except the finals! That is the right line up! They have no excuse not to beat Norwich silly!

That squad is supposed to even beat the first teams of all clubs in the bottom half of the table.

Okay... So, you are basically asking us to pick a better thief among two rogues...

How can this nation move forward when we can't seem to look beyond the very foundation of her woes!

These men ought to have been long retired and obliterated from any serious nation's political landscape!!!

Such a decadent society...

When I was growing up, you didn't dare turn up from nowhere to your home-town driving posh cars without being asked to properly explain your source of wealth... Once your explanation didn't carry, you were outright disowned by your parents, banished from the community. Matter of fact, no one dared just come out with illicit money and show off like that.

These days, even parents are in on the travesty: allowing their kids even gloat about ill-gotten wealth. Society now encourages, even pushes young men to go get that paper at all cost (Stupidly describing it as Hustle)!

Kobicove:
Flood can happen anywhere irrespective of the quality of the drainage system

Yes and No...

While certain floods or rainfall can be unprecedented, with the drainage system overwhelmed, but in this nation it seems to happen every year! What does that tell you sir??!... The drainage system is shocking and risky!

It's like we are tempting fate in this nation...

God forbid that the level of natural disaster we saw abroad happens here, even Lagos will disappear!!! The casualties will smash world records!

Heard today's rain was unusually heavy in most parts of the South-east and South-South... We ought to prepare better for such events.

These are the real men of football who came and succeeded in breaking the Man City Monopoly!!!...

It is an honor to have them changing up the competition in one of the greatest leagues in the world.

If only United had its own legend coaching them and making them as solid and imposingly competitive like Chelsea, Man City, and Liverpool...

Nonetheless, this season will be quite interesting.

This can't be true... Buhari can't even manage his own family's economy.

Leadership and economic development are things Buhari has no knowledge of, not even the most basic...

The way Nigeria is retrogressing is evident that an elected president can never give what he Lacks.

Queen, Nini, Angel and Saga.... Una don try!!!

Make una go house go hustle for local endorsement deals.

ThEGodFaThEr104:
So, he is allowing cross to sleep in the head of house lounge with cross...
Wetin dis one dey yarn sef!

Calm down... You know he meant Rose!!!

ken6488:
Point of correction

My state/region doesn't support this government
Two times we voted against the failure

Your state/region has individuals blessed with commonsense, foresight, and true leadership...

Sadly, the set of Nigerians with the above virtues is less than a tenth of the actual voting population. So, hope is far from the horizon!!!

MALIGNANTGuest:

It can only worsen the situation of those who earn in Naira, whose salaries are never paid not to talk of increment

Those ones are already suffering... They have been suffering even long before the Dollar over-powered the Naira to this point.

It beats my mind how an average Nigerian has remained sane under this horrendously clueless leadership for 6 years... More befuddling is how such level of failure could have been given a 2nd term in office without the nation going up in flames of widespread protest!

Boss, forget abeg... Nigerians are still enjoying Buhari!!! When they are truly tired (maybe when hunger, real hunger, starts dropping them like flies), then will they wake up and realize that Buhari is not actually a dictator!!!

Congrats to Rose, Cross and Emmanuel... Never saw Emmanuel getting this far.

Well, time is more or less up for Angel and Nini!

RodgersAkpafu:
This is too harsh

You think??!... I disagree! There is no easier way for her to put it.

Personally, I wouldn't use "Cursed" as I have no interest nor belief in superstitions... So, I will lean towards the average Black man especially Nigerian being quite shallow and dim-witted especially with regards to Politics, Leadership (Especially this) and long-term planning.

How else do you explain that a sovereign nation loaded with some of the best human and natural resources has consistently and ridiculously retrogressed from the very moment their colonial masters departed...
