It is very evident now that we Nigerians are the problems of this country. We seem not to know what we really want. We want to always eat our cakes and still have it.

Pastor prayed that God should make the destiny of your children to be same like whoever you vote for, the OP said Amen, because he prefer Tinubu's destiny for his children and chose to vote for him.

But instead of each of you to choose who to vote for by claiming their destiny for your children, you all pounced on the OP for his choice. WHY NOT CHOOSE YOUR OWN candidate and claim their destiny for your children.

Oh, Okay, we understand. You can only talk the talk and not walk the walk. Doubled faced supporters everywhere. You can call people names and curse them for their choice but you cannot even claim the destiny of your candidate yet you want that same person to control 4-8 years of your life. O ma se o.

Wait o, Is this the best players we can offer or we still have some special players not playing today?
Na long story we dey o.

What's with the Mbappe hate from a cross section of football fans ?

Wrong thread. Not our problem.

brandon180:
I agree with you on this, what Barca lacks is a smart, direct winger with good movement off the ball. Ferran shows glimpses sometimes but him too dey Bleep up. Raphinha and dembouz are too unstable and chaotic with poor finishing.
Sometimes I wonder if they watch their previous matches.

I wonder o

The law says he's innocent until proven guilty, even as he committed the offence in the presence of witnesses and he himself isn't denying culpability. Now, he will be charged to court and the lawyers will defend him vigorously. The case will go all the way from the High Court to the Court of Appeal and in about 8-10 years ends up in the Supreme Court. If you're thinking the culprit doesn't stand a chance of eventually getting an acquittal, there's no need to call you, I'm sorry, a mumu. He may even be admitted to bail while the trial lasts. Let's also not forget that even if convicted, if he can connect the dots getting a pardon in Nigeria isn't rocket science.

You are spot on. Nothing to add.

naso we see am o
This WC made me realize how the career of Di Maria doesn't get enough hype,that guy has won basically every major trophy there is to win.

Very underrated player.

MJBOLT:

Di Maria and Messi have the same International trophies.

Guy wait o, so Di Maria has more international trophy than Ororo? Unbelievable.

The new trend for haters is that .
" Messi won the world cup but he cannot score hattrick of penalties in the final like Mbappe"

THE GOAT IS HERE !!!

coded01:
E Shock You...

What the hell is going on? 3 - 3. Na penalty go judge this final o

coded01:
Hope you all are still watching...

We are here o. Watching Argentina throwing away the cup in 2 mins. What a stupid defending.

Rajahbite:
The black wine bottle represents 3, the green one represents 5 while the wine glass represents 2 so the equation will be 3+2+2+5 = 12

My answer would be 3+2+2×5 = 35

Pepe blames Argentine Referee for their failure...

So, na the referee tie rope for their strkers leg, make dem no score. Okay

Jokerman:
Why are you not calling Bruno, Ramos or Felix, since they are the young stars of the team?

Bros ! Abeg, why you dey vex naaa? Youths are the leaders of tomorrow naaa. Moreover, nobody dey do CR7, naim dey do himself.

Where are all the CR7 fans turn Portugal fans them.? How can they just become quiet like that?

jpmoriarti:
Waooohhh First African team in the FIFA World Cup Semi-Final!!!!

What a huge moment for Morocco!!

Guy, don't be too excited by the continental position of Morocco, they prefer calling themselves Arab nation than Africans. Kudos to them anyway.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
The ref na idiot. Nothing to warrant 10mins... aside that, who dey give 17yellow card 4 one match.

17 out of 22 players? How many players remain?
Stupid referee.

I doubt if they punish these referees for wrong calls at all , more especially if there's no complaints from teams involved.

Bimmarlykay:
Aspas is inform,Alcantara has more experience, forget Busquet he is gone try new players convert some even if its converting Gavi to Dm,how can you use Ferran and Morata upfront and you wanna win a cup.


Come to think about it what happened to Oyazabal&Moreno?


Take Pedri,Gavi,Alba/Balde,Fati and try other club players not just loading it with 70-80% Barca..you only heading for catastrophe...its not as if they are even winning things for the club. Mix them with other talent's

Good points there. Well we'll see the changes the new coach will bring.
There are rumours about Luis de la Fuente becoming the next Spanish coach.

Kilishihunter:
After they couldn't beat Japan I started having fears for the squad, I'm not trying to overhype Pedri and gavi as I've noted several times that what will hurt them is experience and Rodri/koke should be starting ahead of busi/Gavi but even the best midfielders on Tuesday unlike they're very proficient at striking from range na so we go pass around morocco stubborn defense dey go
Enrique lost his 9 year old daughter to cancer to come and carry a team looking nowhere to 2008-2014 to take them to the Euros semi when most of vardrid family were always praying for them to get knocked out, How they even beat Portugal to qualify ahead of them in the UEFA friendly league semis is a testament of his good work with lesser richer resources compared to his predecessors, See the attack na Ferran wey some of us dey drag atimes, Morata (though he shouldn't have been benched), Sarabia, Ansu that we are praying to find his best form after two severe injury spells have slowed him down, No wonder they didn't beat Italy at that euros despite having multitude of chances and dominating the game
With that being said I think tiki taka either has to be rejigged like how pep has done his or binned, The same extra committed bus parking systems that seem to favour several teams playing against us under xavi at barça is what enrique still faced against Morocco just like he couldn't bypass against tico in 2015/2016 and Juventus in 2016/2017, Even pep himself against inter and Chelsea with us
We need various alternatives in that system to outwit those stubborn sides who don't want to come out except via counter attacks

I doubt if there's any style of play which works everytime against "bus parking" except luck.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Enzo
Rodri

Good choices. I had always liked Rodri at Atletico even before Man City got him, but he is not available right now. Too bad

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Yes
Starting with busquet...

Suggest your best DM you wish replaces Busquet, in or outside the Barca team

I can never trust this CBN Governor call Emefiele. All his policies and procedures are controlled by the cabals in this Government. His frolics with the Late Cabal boss - Isa Funtua comes to mind always.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Ferran Torres,
Nico Williams,
Busquet.
Asencio


Liverpool Thiago suppose go Qatar...pedri & gavi can give u 80% possession with zero key passes in the final third.

Seems you are indirectly telling Xavi to do something to that midfield of Barca.

Bimmarlykay:
In a way his choice of players for the WC where wrong and too sentimental take this from a Barca fan.

Which better players did he not choose? And which wrong players did he choose in your opinion?

Abeg why are some people blaming Enrique's outing with Spain on his over-preference of Barcelona players?

I believe he tried his best.

By the time tinubu comes to power oil will be discovered in south west...

There's oil in the south west o, Ondo and Tongeji Island in Ogun state.

So all mechanics lives from hand to mouth?

If you check my write-up, you will find out that I wrote people's mentality. I didn't say its my opinion or classification.

I don't blame you because love is blind, it doesn't consider status, tribe, level, income or position.

However, I don't blame your parents too because of people's mentality that Mechanics are low level.

It is not easy working hard to get millions to train a child up, while expecting the child to settle down and live less stressful in life, only for the child to fall in love with someone living from hand to mouth.
They expect you to marry and give back to them and not to be coming to beg them for money and food claiming you are the breadwinner in your own family because your hubby couldn't contribute much.

The onus is on you to look critically at the situation and convince yourself first that you can cope without becoming a burden, then you can convince them even if you have to promise that you are ready to face the consequences. Because everything that has advantages must have disadvantages.

Say what u know, many have married like that. Say what u know

I'm saying what I know and have done. It worked for me. That's why I said what I said. It's good to practice what you preach.

This one, we can't do ourself

Of curs, we can do this ourselves. I am yet to see a Nigerian based in Nigeria say he has prayed and God told him his wife is in Zimbabwe, or Iraq or Yemen. Neither has any told us that God said he should marry a blind or crippled lady.

It is always that sister in the choir, or that classmate. Always someone we already know.

@OP's problem is incompatibility. Every single man or woman must always check if they are compatible with whoever they want to marry. It may not be 100% perfect, at least 80%, however the odd 20% behaviours must be the negligible ones.

Secondly, try to test your partners during courtship in many ways to know how they react to things. You will see some red flags then, which may guide you to readjust or correct some things before marriage proper.

Enacto:
Because I added not caring for my mom doesn't mean I'm emphasising on it. Even b4 the incident my mom has been the one feeding herself and I never feel concern cos I don't want to interfere but to the extent of him now ignoring both myself and my niece was what got me angry. Till today I'm not even concern about money or feeding I'm old enough to take care of myself now even if it is hard I will go through it, it been 2years already and I have apologized to him if it because of the money I didn't collect from him I just want him to see that there is nowhere I can get the money if it not in full and without it I won't be able to graduate. Infact I have always wanted to earn on my own but from the start he will never allow me hustle just like my brother's because I'm his only female child and also his last child.

Let's leave your Mum's issue out of it for now.
Babe, this man is your dad and he is not a Saint just like you are not a Saint too in this matter.
But this is Africa, fathers don't apologise to their children even when they know they are wrong. It is our culture. It's an Ego thingy. (It is you the child that will polish that his ego back, by saying you are sorry).

When you pushed him, he sees it as a disrespect to his position as head of the family. You then made it worse by moving out the very next day and stayed away for long. To him, you are proving that you can fend for yourself and needs nothing from him. So he allowed you to have your freedom.

Only for you to come back begging for money again, he may just be trying to see how much your arrogant attitude has brought you, so he gave you 50k to test you, but you failed immediately by dropping the money asking where he expects you to get the rest. You should have taking that with thanks first and then beg him for more.

You continued bruising his ego everytime. Just like you pushed him as a result of pent up anger, remember that he's human like you who also has his own pent up anger. So, shutting you out may be his own way of reacting.

I will advice you again. Go and beg him. Make peace with him ( but there's a catch). Don't t ask him for money that day o. Give him some days to process you apology or else, he will see through you and conclude that you only came because of money.
