Don't be silly. All these ills doesn't stop the government from recognizing and rewarding excellence.

Will leaving them empty handed solve the issues you mentioned above?

Don't be a keyboard warrior.

The silly one is the one who can't rise above insults to read and rebutt like a normal thinking person.

I responded particularly to the comment of Onanuga calling out Nigerian citizens.

He has no business and no moral standing to do that... Average Nigerians have the full right to complain and criticize acts of the government that don't go down well with them.

I went on to explain the root cause of such widespread national displeasure.

Now, don't be silly... Learn to read and respond with your senses intact.

Thank you.

yommen:
If he gave peanut, you would cry. He gave so much now, you still cry. Football money no be anybody mate o. So, you can cry till kpo kpo rokpo kporo.

Oga, what he gave them is not my business... Read and comprehend.

I'm not even one of the people complaining about the money... All I hate is Eye service.

Asking Nigerians suffering not to complain when leaders tell them the nation is not financially equipped to pay better salaries while doling out incredible amounts for show is beyond unreasonable.

Would Nigerians be complaining if they lived better lives?!!

Besides, Onanuga was the one that made the silly comment above when he should have kept shut.


As for football money being nobody's mate, I absolutely agree...!

So, now I have to ask... How wealthy are the footballers playing in the Nigerian league?!!

I await your answer.

D00msDay:
Gettttaaaaaat!! U tink u have money more than the people u tagged above especially Angelfrost?

Wat y'all fail to understand is that some of the people criticising the government policies are doing well financially, but only want a better country for everyone. They want a better country for people like u but tribalism, party affiliation and religious bigotry have kept u blinded.

I'm doing well financially by God's grace but that won't stop me from speaking out.

Bro, this is the part that seriously amuses me daily.

I have actually met some of these Tinubu and APC defenders, and I really felt shocked. Like wtf?!!

Kokodeni:
You also should think and use your brain.
If you are going by this your reasoning so then let me ask you how many of all these people you mentioned hustle for a price money as high as that of the WAFCON (1$m) for their NATION in a space of 4 weeks.

U are ill informed and lazy in doing reasoning otherwise you would have known that the soldiers are well budgeted for if not for those criminals holding offices that symphon them.

The total take home of these girls after the WAFCON is about $2k each for the whole 4 weeks whereas some of them make around and above $5k per week..

We have heard and witness cases of these ladies being abandoned after the competition for years now.
So if 001 decides to reward them this time please don't make it look like that's enough reason to decide to make OBI the president

Again... You didn't need to drag Obi or any tribe into this as nothing in my post drew such connections.

Your obsession with Obi is your life's problem not mine... There is more to leadership discussions than childish and petty politics.

If I am ill-informed for calling out the reality that I see daily and witness firsthand, then what do we call you that defend what shouldn't be defended?!!

You said soldiers are well catered for and their funds being siphoned, whose job is it to correct these issues?!! Whose job is it to clean up the corruption across all sectors?!!

Is that your job, sir?!! Or is it mine?!! Am I the one in charge of appointments into key offices?!!

Is the President so far removed from the reality of his citizens?!! If so, how then is he fit to lead the nation?!!

For your first 2 paragraphs regarding the players themselves, I never once said it was wrong or bad to reward them, I simply called out the cl0wn assisting Tinubu (Onanuga) for insulting Nigerians.

Nigeria is not the only nation where players win medals and are rewarded.

If the leadership did right by the citizens, would there be such widespread bellyaching across the nation?!!


Is this the first time footballers are winning trophies and getting rewarded in this nation?!!



Omo... What is the matter with you lots?!! Damn!!!

belikewater:
Na stingy people with a hint of embezzling funds dey talk the way you do. Judas said exactly the same thing meanwhile he was busy helping himself to the treasury.

But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.” He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it - John 12:4-6

Lol... Your analogy makes me laugh!

Jesus Christ knew and still knows the intentions of every man's heart.

Do you know the intentions of my heart?!! Can you read my mind or you just dey find way to defend your corrupt and clueless leaders?!!

You can defend nonsense without dragging sacred scriptures into it.

When Buhari was throwing money around to Niger and to Pilgrims heading to Mecca while the nation suffered, people like you said the same thing when we spoke up.

The other day, it was Billions being budgeted for VP mansion renovation, and some of you hushed us with these same words.


If Jesus Christ was that negligent of the welfare of his people while throwing money around at frivolities, what do you think would have become of his life's work and ministry?!!


Engage your brain abeg.

Many top orators and speakers struggled with speech impediments earlier in life.

It's not really a big deal anymore.

Matter of fact, if there is no physiological issue with the oral cavity, then it can be sorted mentally.


The simple and effective rule is to learn to speak calmly, slowly, and never respond in a hurry.

gerizzim:
You will not say this if alozie or ajibade or plumptre is your sister.

You would be amazed to know or learn about my personal relationship to some of those players.

Dey play... Just dey play!

kedeojo:
Nigeria won it for the ten times. Leicester city owner back in 2016, gave each player and staff Lamborghini for winning the premier league. Those cars are far more than the amount paid to the owner by FA for winning the premier league then. It is called appreciation. You bitter people should relax cos most of us knows the reason why you people are not happy. Some of you were boasting that the igbo girls gave nigeria the cup even when Ajibade was named the tournament best player. Why are you people don't want your tribe girls to be 1m dollars rich.

You were almost making sense (ALMOST)... But, you had to go full tribal especially on a comment that equally speaks for every single tribe and state in Nigeria.


I think I am very correct...!

Nigerian leaders and those that support them can't be M£ntally alright.

It's just not possible.

Putindbutt:
Bro, pray against the spirit of poverty or go to a river and wash it away.

Come back when you have something actually intelligent to rebutt with.

That brain is there for a reason.

Speaking of praying... How far have you prayed against that spirit in your country, cos Nigeria is among the poorest nations or the nations with shockingly poor citizens (over 70%)?!!

Splashing money to footballers won't change that fact.

Onanuga, think about it...! You do have a brain.

In a nation where hard working and dedicated civil servants, teachers, and other members of the labor force earn minimum wage peanuts, what or how exactly do you expect them to feel about their President doling out millions of Naira to footballers?!!


A nation where basics like Electricity, Potable water, and Security, not even mentioning good roads, are daydreams, do you expect citizens to jump for joy at such outlandish displays of monetary gifts?!!


How much did you give to individuals and families that suffered losses to flood and terrorist attacks?!!


Just recently, soldiers complained online about the meagre earnings and meals they receive... we all know their allowances are nothing to write home about.




By dashing Falcons money that is way higher than their Cup prize money, what exactly are you trying to prove?!! What message do you think suffering Nigerians will glean from that ostentatious gesture?!!




Make una dey think before rushing to defend and make posts.


That was how Buhari was dashing Billions as donations to Niger and other nations in conflict, while IDP camps suffered hunger and malnutrition.


Omo!!! Nigerian leaders and their supporters might have serious M£ntal Health Issues.

Sigh.... As the Incumbent president of this nation, do you really need to stoop this low to retain power?!!


If the millions spent on this charade is used to feed or gift widows in the Southeast, won't it produce far better results?!!



Nigerian Politicians reason as backwardly and strangely as most the citizens.

SMH!!!

Well, he is probably done with club coaching...!

At this point, there is no upward direction as he has won it all!

The only challenge left for him is to win the World Cup with a national team.

I guess that's what he is hoping to happen within the 15 years hiatus.

OnyeObowo1:
So u think VP will come from South as president?

Yeah... In 2031, if power must return to the North, then VP slot will head back to the South.

What an awesome gesture from Mr. President.

The Coach should also be honored for a massive job well done.

Silentgroper:
It's Liverpool football club .



No doubt .

Nah... That would be Madrid!

In terms of universe appeal and popularity, as well as fan base, Man United remains the undisputed King.


No other club's preseason is watched and keenly followed as theirs.

Some Liverpool fans didn't even know their club played preseason this weekend but they know the 2 games United has played. Lol.

Nah... Real Madrid is the biggest!

Man United just has the largest fan base in the universe based on their history.
That's why they can pull crowds everywhere they go.

Still, the club is no longer big in terms of revenue.

They can't even pull their weight anymore in the transfer market.

Might?!! Hahahaha

Oga, come on...! Even the dullest amongst us knows you are already working for and with Jagaban.

If power is shifting back to the North after Tinubu's 8 years (undisputed), it makes sense for every top and serious Northern Politician to align directly and indirectly now.


Even Wike is fighting tooth and nail for his VP position, come 2031.

GodPunishOsu:
When will you people stop this robbish of telling lies,The thread below was before the formation of APC,it was when your people (Igbo) were at the helms of affairs and we see how you treated others,so stop this pretence and own up to your folly

https://www.nairaland.com/745731/yoruba-marginalization-elders-met-jonathan/84

Lol... The fact that you already described and ascribed me as Igbo simply for criticizing APC and their obvious poor approach to national leadership already tells me that I shouldn't waste my time and words on you.


Guy, go find food chop abeg!!!

The universe and Nigeria are way beyond the limited thinking of some of you Igbos and Yorubas.

There are over 15 ethnic groups in Nigeria... Stop making everything begin and end within your local village. Haba!!!

Slytiger:
So Nnamdi Kanu was working for APC in 2015?
Or was Peter Obi that weaponized bigotry in 2011 - 2015 was also part of APC?

I am not even supporting any politician... Just calling it as I see it.

I also clearly called out Nnamdi Kanu in my post (maybe you missed it).

Whatever Peter Obi did as governor, he did it within his state...!

I'm talking about National level... Nigeria as a nation, not a tiny dot enclave (Anambra).

National politics of bigotry and division was perfected by Apc in 2014 to 2015! This is not even up for discussion or arguments.

Shall we talk about the divisive statements made by Buhari and other key leaders?!!

What about the appointments?!!



The Division across the nation is DEEP! And nothing might ever unite Nigerians again...!!!


Try to always stay on topic...!

illicit:
Let's live in harmony...

Why should the renaming of streets be a source of sorrow and agony

That ship might have sailed permanently...!

APC started the division on a massively scale prior to 2015 elections, in their desperation for power.


The nation has become far more fragmented than ever before in history.

Add these to the antics of Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho groups, and you can see the deep fissures that can never be mended in this lifetime.

Correct babes...! Ladies wey sabi!

When will our men's team be treated like this?!!

Better yet... When will the Super Eagles start making the nation this proud?!!


Nothing meaningful since Late. Stephen Keshi's leadership and Afcon win!

This makes a lot of sense...!

Citizenship should be properly earned.

You can't just obtain a visiting visa, travel when due to birth your child, deliver there and demand that your offspring be automatically given citizenship.

Okay... When we organise a free and fair election without any form of manipulation from INEC and other bodies including security agencies, then can we truly have this conversation.


Until then, none of us outside the ring of elite Power sharers has the sureness to speak on who can or who has what it takes to get the most votes from Nigerians.

So, Omojuwa, get a real job!!!

Smartcitizen:
Na envy dey make people drink snapper, just to let you know.


🥱🥱

Okay... So, who exactly is envious of whom?!!

How your comment take relate to my post gan gan?!!


Davido released an unsolicited information about his wealth, it was posted on Nairaland front page, and I am wondering what to do with the said information...!

How did you leap from one to the other and bring in Envy?!!

Abi Sniper dey hungry you to drink?!!

Okay... We have been duly informed.

So, what do we do with this information?!!

Why do now hire foreign coaches when we have such coaching talents in our midst?!!


Let's get the right persons for leadership roles regardless of how popular they are.


...And also give them complete room to work, from player recruitment to team selections.

Zicolo4real:
I am sure Lagos and Ibadan drivers brought us to this list.

Lol... You never visit North then. Those ones believe "Fast and Furious" is the only style of driving.


The problem with Nigeria is the failure of leadership to enforce driving laws.

The fact that this country actually doles out Driver's licenses without examination or tests to ascertain good skills and behavior on the roads makes it worrisome.


That's why most Nigerians struggle to pass practical driving tests abroad.

One was complaining to me about how he failed his road test in Europe multiple times despite having driven for 20 years in Nigeria.

I just dey laugh the guy... Told him to better humble himself and go learn how to drive like a normal human being.


Over 80% of Nigerian drivers should have their licenses revoked! No jokes!!!

Once it's a bad list, Nigeria hardly ever escapes making it...!

Na only list of nations at war we no just dey on.

Simps don't really deserve to live tbh...!

There must be a price to pay for being gullible and having such low self-esteem as a man.

Naturally, there is absolutely nothing normal about thrusting in and out of a v*gina for more than 10 to 15 minutes.

P0rn industry has reinforced the lie that real men can last for over 30 minutes to 1 hour.


If she hasn't cum by the time you have reached your natural limit, then use your fingers or find other ways to get her there.



Y'all should stop complicating your lives by taking drugs to impress women...!

The shocking and even laughable part is that these same Simps will also spend heavily on these ladies.

You pay a woman for sex and still take enhancement drugs to impress her in bed! Come on!! Where una troway una common sense?!!

Wizardslayer:
Please don't be stubborn to the police no matter the country you find them. Police hates rude people.

They'll rough handle you even in America, France and UK if play rude and stubborn.

Police still remain your friend. Thanks.

Police brutality is directly addressed in most nations as abnormal, but here we see it as a norm, and even try to blame the victims.

Well... I support them on this.

A lot of Nigerians are a menace wherever they go to.

Ghana and other nations should learn from Canada... Use more stringent processes before allowing people into your nation, especially those known for certain proclivities.

Congrats to these amazing women... This is the fighting spirit I haven't seen since Atlanta '96.
