Keshi needs to train some of our players nt to miss clear chances ahead of the world cup just like they did against spain.The world cup is nt where u miss clear chances or else the other team might just punish us.The central defenders have to understand themselves well. I am sure Nigeria will beat any team seeded with them among those five even in Africa.Bt to win with Ease It should be in this order

Ethopia
Burkina Faso
Senegal
Cameroon
Egypt

Bianca is taking this issue too far,Evidences and Witnesses may just be enough to ruin her.

I want this country to split,Let's hold a referendum to that effect.Let each region go their seperate ways am tired of hearing its our Oyel money everytime. I am a Petroleum Engineer studied in the UK and I know Oil recession is coming soon in some countries in the next 50-100 yrs. Oil reserves will increase in other countries and the dependence of Oil is almost over. The west are doing everything to find alternatives to Oil and when that time comes I hope some pple won't cry out for help. I support the Emancipation of the Niger delta region, but of wat use is it if this same man who swore to fight for the freedom of his pple is nt giving back to Communities he swore to fight for. I do nt also support the Northerners owning most of the Oil blocs in the ND.But hold ur leaders responsible wen the oil recession begin, they fail to use the money for the good of their own pple bt to enrich themselves instead of the Land. SW will survive without your Oil who knows 2moro Oil reserves might increase in the SW. Split Nigeria

Na Akpabio dey preform pass Fashola abi, I laugh in chinese. Can Akpabio govern a state so complex like Lagos? NO But MR BRF (SAN) has brought sanity back to Lagos state. Abeg next Topic.

PDP Crisis is clearly a battle of Power btw the core North and SS. SE hoping he will hand over power in 2019. I pray APC takes advantage of this crisis to win the hearts of the People even though we are practising Regional politics in this country.SE/SS will never vote for APC while SW,NE,NW will vote for APC depending dats if the PDP fails to resolve the dispute btw themselves and definitely the MB votes will be divided among the two parties.Either way let us prepare our minds if this current crisis is nt resolved,Nigeria might split come 2015

I personally as an individual that is nt a tribalist bt only care abt Development in the country. ND youths are looking @ it from another perspective,If Nigeria is getting oil from My region then GEJ has to be president come 2015.Now that is the more reason why every thinking Nigerian should know PDP is one of the major problems of Nigeria,they only think abt wats in for them and nt the populace. We definitely need to either break up dis country or hold a sovereign National Conference.Apart from the issue of insecurity in the country which is perpatuated by the Northern Leaders,GEJ is underperforming which is my own concern nt because he his from the Minority. If we are to remain as one Nation,let it be stated clearly if the issue of ruling is going to be zoning from time to time or based on performance.I personally will advocate for Performance bt the ignorant ones will go for Zoning which we take us one step forward 100 steps backward.As for the issue of Atiku, it is wrong to declare him a persona non-grata coz this Nation is still one nation.

SegzyJoe: It's been a while I reply to posts on nairaland because of so many kindergaten analysis goin on around here esp.d poltics section. And as a pol scientist, I consider it a waste of time engagin pple who have not even gone outside their Lga.

Hwever, on dis issue, even though Fani Kayode is a pol jobber like many other Nigerians, but there is element of truth in his assertion. Though he came a bit blunt, dat may offend Gejfans, but d alternative would be bad buz for d president.

There may be other optns for mr president in a normal & saner democracy, often times we all failed to realize that Nigerians were not d one dat elected Gej, as long as pdp remain d dorminant party-Gej was elected at pdp conventn whr he clinched party nomination. What nigerians did at d general electn was predetermined.

Unfortunately, he is up against those dat gave him d ticket.His positn is bad because he pleaded for one term & publicly declared it. His positn is worsened because he is 4rm d minority group. Sincerely it is difficult enough for him even with Obj to plead with d north, it is almost imposible for him to come back in 2015 without Obj. Why? Obj is like a demon, all d critical stakeholders in d north- Ibb, Atiku& others fear him because he can undue anyone.these pple too re principalities with foot soldiers but Obj is even like a ruler of darkness in pol strategy.Sincerely, wit d polarizatn of pdp, d president ambitn in 2015 has been undermined, I was suprised what d presidents' men are doin allowin president to walk into dat trap. D president shouldnt ve been there, at worst d conventn shld ve been canceled, it is a failure of intelligence gatherin for such a strategic meetin for d president. Even Obj was absent, he did not witnessed d embarasment.

I was suprised dat d clueless advisers & security operatives to d president re blame Obj instead of usin him to achieve Gej goal first b4 dumpin him again.in conclusion, Gej need Obj now more than ever, even more than he needed him in 2011. I hope he would not listen counsel. He who fight & run away live to fight another day.

I told them the other day that,GEJ pleaded to be president and was given 4years.PDP is all about Zoning and the North(Yaradua) did not complete his 8yrs.Now he his president and wants to go for another term and he his fighting pple(OBJ) who begged the North to let him rule for 4yrs,Tukur is backing him and he thinks dats enough to be president.When it comes to PDP u cannot sideline pple like OBJ,Atiku,IBB and Anenih.Even though FFK was just kidding by telling President Jona to go on his knees and beg OBJ bt he cannot get the ticket without the pple he his currently fighting take it from me.Let's watch as it all unfolds.

Giftdavids: Ow will nigeria ever move forward, with all this division and tribalism? "Can two walk together except they be agreed?" we're to shallow minded competing with ourselves, even the competition is not on viable things, just EGO! Na wa o

Lagos is just like London Where u find almost pple form almost all the countries in the world.But u don't find Pple who have Nationalized to be british calling London a No mans's land.The Arabs are investing heavy in London,Pple from other countries are working and paying taxes as well as English pple bt u will never find them call London a No man's land.I support One Nigeria bt do not forget where u came from Lagos is still Part of Yoruba land bt all tribes from the Federation are welcome to stay and do business.

Some Religious laws were shaped by man for seflfish reasons.Those religious practise of the ancient days cannot be applicable to modern times, things change with time.Just like we amend the constitution to suit us today is the same way religious practises shd be amended to suit us today.Men used Islam as a political tool to suit themselves in the days of old.Muslims of nowadays follow religion blindy and embrace practises that dont suit them.I say No to Child Marriage.

Perfomance wld have given GEJ an edge over the king makers like OBJ and the rest of them bt since he has failed he will loose the vote of the Yorubas.Jonathan and Tukur are antagonizing the policies of the PDP.The PDP deals with Zoning presidency,the North hasn't completed their term dats according to the PDP policy,Jonathan was given a chance to go for one term bt now the thing don dey sweet am e no wan step down again.Not that am in support of zoning bt that's how the PDP works.So therefore if Jonathan doesn't like the idea he shd form a new party.The strongholds of PDP won't allow him go for second term.

Leave those saying OBJ is Old and is no more relevant in the Political scene in Nigeria.This man knows Nigeria like the back of his hands,GEJ on the otherhand is a new born baby in the Nigerian Political scene,someone who was only lucky getting to the Position he is today.If u want to collect the banana from the Monkey act like a monkey and be friends with him.GEJ cannot win 2015 without making friends with the strongholds of PDP. Likes of Tukur and other new PDP members from the SS are new born baby's in the Nigerian political scene.Even though I think enough is enough for these Northerners,I voted for GEJ in 2011 bt he is just to clueless to lead this country,a man who sits and watch Corruption thrieve in d country.He removed petroleum subsidy claiming it will help build other infrastructures in the country,now we have subsidy scam. e

miss ibu: You claim to be a detribalized Nigerian, but here you are fanning the embers of disunity. Is it that you are thinking something else and your finger is typing a different thing?

I am nt a tribalisit just as u said and am nt discouraging Unity among Nigerians.But when a tribe associate with a tribe just because of the believe power will be handed over to them,I am totally nt in support of that and that is exactly what the igbos are doing. Forgetting the fact that we are in a democratic setting,Power cannot just be transfered from Person to Person those days have gone when OBJ did Power transfer which I will never support even if am a yoruba man.

Iykopee: Single out a personality to talk abt dont involve a whole tribe. If u dont feel like voting for GEJ dats ur lookout. Nobody cares.
Dont take it as a responsibility to smite anybody rooting for him.

But Iphy 42 speaks the truth.

ichidodo: No the north never agreed on ceedin power to Gej which is why most of them supported Buhari and insurrected boko haram.The rot in our system was precipitated by elements from the north and southwestern part of our country who have held sway in the affairs of the nation at one time or the other ,it can never be eradicated in an instant but with time and in this administration in spite of obstacles thrust in Gej's way, we are all starting to enjoy Fresh air.It is Gej's right to vote and be voted for and nobody can take it away from him.

PDP's Policies are based on zoning,even though I do not support Zonning since we call this Nation one Nigeria.Now based on PDP's Policies Power must go back to the North,bt GEJ and his loyalist are saying he has the right to recontest.If GEJ doesn't believe in PDP's Zoning Policy he and his loyalist shd form a new party and recontest.That is the major reason for the mayhem in the PDP today

iheneme: the last time I checked, my freedom of association is guaranteed in the constitution.

Then check again,they don't see you as their brothers.I put it to you bring me a credible leader from the East come 2019 and I will vote him as president even if a Yoruba man is his opposition.In otherwords look beyond ur so called association with SS pple as your brothers and vote based on perfomance.Let Jonathan's Perfomance (which is 2/20)speak for him in 2015.

ichidodo: Don't base arguments on presumptions and show evidence Gej had an agreement with the northern oligarchy.

If you look @ this issue carefully they never wanted to give GEJ the presidency after the death of Yaradua even though constitutionally he was next in line.Bt eventually he became president and even went ahead to win the election in 2011 and that some part of the North voted for him.Ask yourself why didn't we ve dis mayhem in the PDP b4 the 2011 elections y now that 2015 elections is approaching.

iheneme: Jonathan will contest and win a second term. If you don't like it look around for the nearest transformer.

You see them people who do not look beyond ethnicity.Ask yourself what visible thing has he done since he was president,instead he made life more difficult for us. s

Iykopee: Did OBJ make Nigerians happy when he got 2 term of office and seeking for a third? we have been hooked up in the politics of sentiments. Just believe dat the tide will surely continue as greed is the driving passion.

At that time he had no strong Oppositions bt now we have alternatives.

iheneme: [b]Didn't your uncle OBJ know that when he was gunning for third term? Ndi obiakpo

The fact am Yoruba doesn't mean I supported OBJ when he wanted to impose another term on Nigerians.Even Yorubas didn't support him.If it were igbo bigots like you,you wld refuse to see beyond ethnicity.Jonathan had a pact with OBJ and other PDP leaders to go for just one term.When he knew he wld want to go for second term why did he enter into an agreement with them.I still stand on the fact that Jonathan should use the rest of his term to make Nigerians happy so we can approve of his second term,if not he should step down as agreed.

The agreement OBJ and other PDP leaders had with Jonathan is for him to go for just one term coz the zoning is the Norths turn bt unfortunately Yaradua died.Now he his president and power hungry he wants to disobey the mouth that fed him. I am Yoruba bt I do not look things from tribal perspective.Let's say the truth GEJ is not fit to rule,I do not support the zoning thing.Jonathan disappointed Nigerians by making life harder for us from the issue of Subsidy Removal to Presidential Pardon of criminals to Subsidy scam to increased Oil theft to Rivers state crisis to Governor's forum crisis to not fighting corruption.If we truly want a working President that has his pple @ heart discarding Ethnic sentiment, either yoruba,Igbo or Hausa or the minority tribe won't vote Jonathan.Bt the igbos don't look beyond ethnicity,even some SS don't want Jonathan that's because they look beyond ethnicity and want a better leader that will move this Nation forward.

When it comes to Defense Chelsea has the best defense in the world.That's why no matter ow good a team you are be it Bayern,Madrid,Barca,Dortmund before you score Chelski u will sweat.

young-dude:
hahaha.....best in premier league my foot. av u sein man city and chelsea midfielders at al? u Arsenal fans are funny sha!

Don't even mention Chelsea for midfield Harzard,Mata are the only good ones Lampard,Ramirez and Mikel no dey in form jare.Though Mikel is good playing for Nigeria that's coz he plays his original role.To Arsenal talk abt Carzola,Ozil,Arteta,improved Ramsey,Defensive midfielder Flamini,Jack Wilshere Future of England,Rosicky is the one dat is questionable there.

Pple like Ichidodo and his fellow igbos knows who lagos belongs to.He is just trying to annoy you guys here.Free him let him keep ranting.

I lived in britain for 4 years,Good life yes enjoyed the infrastracture and d proper way a country shd be but guess what I wasn't happy,I want to be wit my own pple.Abegi no place like home jare.Living in a country u feel like a second class citizen your movement is restricted coz am black nt free to go into all white pubs.Nigeria is a bad country yes bt I still love this country am back in Nigeria now and am happy am amongst my people that gives me joy.Things might not be running properly here bt am happy.@ OP you can hate Nigeria for all you like bt Home is home.
