What you guys forget is that the players siasia brought to the scene are now big timers. He has proved himself and he can get new players. He knows what kind of player to put in a game, he has a marvelous strategy. Did he lead us to the final at the Olympics in Beijing? This guy is worthy of coaching the super eagles. Or you guys are waiting for Ghana to invite him over then you'll all start spitting on Ghana again?
.

I don't think the concensus here is that he lacks ability

how much is 15m naira in dollar? the naira has no value. . .
what does laggerback have in his cv?wot has he won? he was paid $2m for 4months. . .
siasia on the other hand has done so much in a few years, he has more medals than the losers you've had in the past . . .
poverty mentality dey worry nigerians. . .

I really don't agree with this. It is totally wrong.
Are they trying to tell our youngsters that they cannot get leadership training in Nigeria? What sort of leaders do we expect them to be, when they are given a very solid impression that their home is so second rate it cannot host their leadership training?

Akunyili Sacks Two Media Assistants Over Soludo

By Innocent Oweh Correspondent, Abuja





The feud between Minister of Information and Communications, Dora Akunyili, and erstwhile Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Charles Soludo, took a new dimension on Wednesday as the minister fired two of her special assistants on media for allegedly circulating “a malicious statement” about Soludo.

Akunyili was said to have been angered by the development when she returned from a trip abroad to learn of the write-up on the ex-CBN boss, who is also her in-law.

The affected staff include Obi Adindu, Senior Special Assistant on Media to the minister, and Julius Ogunro who got a suspension order.

A statement by Akunyili in Abuja on Wednesday said: “I have just returned from an official trip to China and my attention was drawn to an unauthorised write –up by Mazi Obi Adindu, my Senior Special Assistant, Media, purported to be a response to some earlier defamatory statement by Professor Charles Soludo.

“I feel very embarrassed and saddened by this release issued by my SSA without permission from me. The release is too demeaning and I can’t talk about anybody in that manner no matter the level of provocation.

“I hereby relieve Mazi Obi Adindu of his duty and suspend Julius Ogunro, my media assistant, who used his e-mail to circulate this obnoxious write-up without clearance from me.

“My action which takes effect from this morning is an expression of my utter embarrassment at the response which I consider needlessly abusive, scurrilous and out of character with the values which I am championing in the Nigerian public service.

“My public service culture is driven by an attitude of restraint and tolerance even in the face of the gravest provocation.

“The mild family misunderstanding with Soludo does not warrant the excessive language and substance of Mazi Adindu’s response. I unequivocally dissociate myself from it.”

It will be recalled that Soludo and Akunyili had a misunderstanding during the burial rites of Gloria Ezenwanne, elder sister to the minister and mother-in-law to Soludo.

Both in-laws were alleged to have sowed the seed of discord, following an allegation by Akunyili that the ex-CBN boss hired thugs to disrupt her participation at the burial ceremony of her late sister.

Akunyili had alleged that Soludo accused her of nursing a secret ambition to equally run for the Anambra gubernatorial race.

The development had also prompted Soludo to react, sending malicious statements about the minister.

Siasia will be a bad Idea.

It will just mean that the NFA still dont know what they are doing.
Remember that the sacking of Amodu and the subsequent hiring of Largerback was as a result of the clamouring of Nigeria for a foreign coach who basically did not do better than Amodu (cos I dont think Amodu could have been worse).

Siasia I respect as a coach, but is he ready to handle the national team?? I say NO!!
I still say Clement Westerhoff should be involved with the raising of the new eagles in some way. He is still here in the country and we might as well use his services even if it is in an advisory capacity.

Highly supported. Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

Enyeama is from the South South. since we are being all tribalistic

He is from the East! No such thing as South-South like there is no such thing as North-North. You cannot be south-south if you already live in the south. Nigerians and their logic.

And most likely can speak IGBO!

please just shut up if you dont know the rules and technicalities of the game. the linesmen are there to give the referee advice on incidents he may not have seen. dont be a fool, if none of the linesmen was able to pick up samuel's infraction on obasi does it mean that a completely different set of linesmen must not advice the referee correctly? the referee is always in contact with the linesmen whether you are aware of it or not. my friend if you say that it is common for players to do such and get only yellows then you are a useless KAITA yourself. better go and read the rules of football

Who is Abiola? Was he a saint? His family is not sizeable enough to stop IBB's ambition if he has a good program for Nigeria. Let the best candidate win. Do we have to continue living in the past?

Semid,bravo for your letter.mikel is a good player that need a good coach,all u said about him is right but u forget the aspect of him,but why so much attention on him.oh, u are a united supporter.okoro is very good if caution?nice letter.

Just look at real professional and visionary administrators.

I watch this video and can't help but wonder if other states in the country go ever catch up. Makes other state leaders look like kindergarten administrators,

Lagos receives more revenue than all these states you are comparing them with. What Rivers can easily afford for example, Jigawa will have to save for 5 years before they can afford it. Measure the state's economic indexes before making comparisons.

Main article: wedding ring

In Western cultures a wedding ring is traditionally worn on the ring finger. This developed from the Roman "annulus pronubis" when the man gave a ring to the woman at the betrothal ceremony. According to tradition in some countries (derived from Roman belief), the wedding ring is worn on the left ring finger because the vein in the left ring finger, referred to as the vena amoris was believed to be directly connected to the heart, a symbol of love, the left side being probably since the heart is on the left side of the body.

Soludo is a Nigerian, he can't be a SAINT

I hope u re nt really a pastor.Re u tellin me dat a Nigerian kant b a saint?
y re we so quick 2 ruin d image of Soludo? Did we ever hear anytin abt all dis b4 he entered politics.
My annoyance wit him is dat he entered politics were his image will be ruined by political opponents.
In Nigeria, once u enter politics jst mk sure your ready 2 defend wild accusations cos of d nations allegiance 2 corruption., every person lk PASTOR OLA does nt nt believe dat anytin good kan km out of Nigeria.Its so sad nd i pray we renew our mind as a nation.

But in Africa the players don't listen, their thinking is low and you have to repeat yourself over and over or they will forget."
