The Swedes should not be underated, Mikel should revert to his position in front of defense. We need to beat Sweden and hope Japan beats Colombia.

Yes, we should not take anything for granted...But we go beat them.

TheGoodJoe:

Head coach does not mean Salisu runs the affairs of the team. Bonfere Jo was the technical adviser and Coach Musa Abdullahi was the coach. Yet, Bonfere Jo was the Boss.

Didn' know this, you might be right...But I think Bonfere appeared to have had more say because he had been there since the days of Westerhof.

Handsomecole:
I'm beginning to hate this life it's so cruel and unbalanced. The more you work the more poorer you become. Some people will just die without tasting some of these good things of life. $

Life is so unfair

*walks out of thread...

And for people that tasted the good things of life, what will become of them afterwards? Any difference between them and those that did not have the same 'good things of life'...

No point hating the life. If you're in good health and can pay your bills and all, be contented, be happy and continue to work hard, do your best. One day, something will happen..

And I disagree with you that the more you work, the poorer you become..At least, this is not applicable to me. If you had mentioned hard work mixed with some measure of luck guarantees success, I'd have agreed with you. That someone's hard work hasn't paid off doesn't mean it's not going to pay off someday. From what I have seen, hard work still pays. One day, one day, it will shele, it will happen.

Anyway, this is the way I view life

toprealman:
Just give Ahmed Musa one abeg......

No, not sure he would have one. Dude wasn't there last season.

Omero:
Did I hear just. Guy take am easyooo, what happen to HARWORK?

I also just laughed at the statement..It's commonly used to water down the great efforts and luck that bring players stardom and keep them there..

kayo80:
Sh^t happens. He was thinking of Nigeria when they asked him the question. We all make mistakes like this once in a while.

Yeah, exactly my point. People that speak publicly will be more sympathetic of his mistake. These things happen!

Mhen, pressure on camera no easy. May God help us.

decency123:
So lagerback didn't teach them lessons, they still went to carry oyinbo unknown coach.... Okay ooo buh we ddont have money

Oga, Lagerback wasn't and is never unknown.

demolinka:
I think say Salisu na coach Which kain country be dis self

Salisu is head coach. The newly appointed guy is technical adviser..They have been on the look out for a technical adviser since appointing salisu. The guy go play the role wey Bonfere Jo play under Westerhof

R2bees:
See as everybody just dey claim them be leicester fans.. I just dy luk una.

Of course now, musa dey there, so wetin u expect bro?

Musa will do well, I knew this and the coach also knew when he signed him. When he was signed, I knew Leicester wasn't too big for him. He is going to do well. Let's keep fingers crossed.

Just excited for this Musa guy.

Hello everyone, My name is Victory and I don't know how to tell you this or what format to follow

On 31st May this year, a day after my birthday, I resigned from a mining company where I was working in Jos because working terms and conditions no longer gave me what I wanted in a job coupled with the fact that I was fed up with ONE MAN BUSINESS and promised myself not to work with any again.

Immediately I got home that day, I was excited to receive a mail inviting me for an interview with a multinational organization. To cut the long story short, I ended up doing interviews with three different companies within two weeks in Lagos and I resumed with one of them just last week.
Where I am now the pay is 100k per month for my position, accommodation, staff bus to and fro work daily with no other benefits for now, it is a one man business that is just starting up in Abeokuta and I am enjoying working with the company though the job is tasking and demanding but I am learning daily...

Just yesterday, one of the three companies called for me to resume this Friday in Lagos...Please find some benefits that come with the position below as I was told during the interview and from a source within the firm. Though the start up pay is half what I am getting in Abeokuta;
1. PENSION
2. INSURANCE
3. 13TH MONTH
4. TRAINING AND RETRAINING
5. CAREER GROWTH
6. JOB SECURITY
7. EXPOSURE
ABOVE ALL, IT IS A MULTINATIONAL ORGANIZATION

Now I have between now and tomorrow Thursday to either resign in Abeokuta or reject the offer in Lagos
Please I would like for moderators to help move this post to where it can be seen quickly for advise, thank you

Congrats bro on these offers

b0rn2fuck:
Very bad, to be honest, she will locate you for either friendship sake if she move on and not regret but if she eventually regret, she will come back begging, I don't just become born2fuck in a day, I got heartbroken of my life in 2006 , I was still fighting for jamb success and because of this girl, I couldn't enrolled myself in university back then ,I wasn't serious at all. after heart break, I rushed into part time without mercy , 2008 I found a girl in LASU, beautiful 2006 till late I found the girl, I have started smoking, drinking, attending ashewo joints and clubbing, that's how I almost wreck my life. I am glad today despite she let me become a beast to other women, I still kept the girl I met in 2008 early till date, she has a daughter and we are cool in my own house, like I said, not rented. Still in my early 30th but to be frankly speaking, I have my ex in facebook, we chatted once a while then I chose to ignored and change my number, she demanded we see but I refused, just imagine, someone who left in 2006 wanting a reunion at least in 2015, someone women go no shame, I asked you never married? Like my bad mouth, she said, she has been getting play and no serious, even though me never go court go shot I wed, I have been living with my woman and a daughter of 4 yrs old, I finally put an end to smoking, and drinking 2 months ago and over 2 yrs, I quit clubbing and ashawo joint, I was in church recently which I have long miss.
This is not just a story, she will come back one day, she will poke on every of your activites but you get yourself a better life, this is a challenge to gather, my broken relationship help me face business and school and the new girl arrival wasn't the demanding type. Never knew my ex have been monitoring all, she broke with different men, the funniest she demanded a night but I ignored, I rather go sleep with prostuites than sleep with ex, gather yourself, move on, don't seek a girl, challenge your future, you never buy land, you never buy car, build house, Rome wasn't build in day,its look hard but easy to do when single, start up plans before any devil comes in again, most of these women are devil.

Bro, great story..I want to encourage that you continue the church going and allow the genuine word of God to complete the amazing transformation which has already begun in you..

You will testify fully, amen.

Cheers

Poly guys with bad English. La WA ooo.

Sorry sha but I think she left because she's now out of ur league.

Unnecessarily mean and a sweeping generalization..

duscollins:
Good guys often finish last. You are right, a professor of psychology at Havard university came up with such findings in a related research last week. This lady does not to be your wife, please don't regret, move on and move on quickly.

Can you please point to this paper or provide the link..Would love to read it..Meanwhile, I will be doing a google search just in case I'm able to find am.

knxpin:
I wonder why okocha cannot get the coaching license and coach super Eagles or is he that lazy because he seems to have the talent and ability.

...to play exceptionally welll...However, we do not know if same is true for coaching

Goldie88:
Good morning my good people of nairaland
I finally got a job.... see if you are a guest on nairaland pls just try and register cos nairaland forum is a blessing in disguise...., I have been a guest for years and I decided to register like some months back...... all the information I gathered here really helped me in my job hunt
Nairaland taught me to move from my comfort zone and meet new people.... well, I met new people and those people (girls) you would never know they have connections oo as in young girls between 25-30, working in global organizations, controlling big things and even responsible for themselves...
I am finally employed and the pay is nice and the resumption time is 11am....what can I say.... My parents and siblings go enjoy me die atleast before I start having other responsibilities to cater for... God bless you

Congrats bro!

OpinionCounts:
Hey guys, it is not good to treat people nicely just because you dont know what they will turn up tomorrow. Rather treat people nicely with respect because they are HUMAN BEIGNS just like you, they have emotions, challenges, dignity, faults, needs, feel pain and desire love just like you. It doesn't matter if they will turn out to be the dangote's of this world or the shoe repairers of this world, we are all human beings and no matter how rich, influential and educated you turn out to be just remember that you are not more human than the next person by your side even if he/she is a shoe shinner. We were all made from dust and will all return to dust if Christ tarries, so why should dust feel more important than a fellow dust. #myopinion.

Guy, you viewed it from a more general perspective..Nice one, thanks..

What others have said is a subset of your generalised view, and they are not wrong.

Well done for your view!!

meltiplexer:
Nothing comes by lucks,the guy must have been dreaming about it and working hard toward his dream. Be positive dreams come true but not easily, Naijabet man say so

Guy I have a divergent opinion.Even the most hard working people got their chance/breakthrough by luck. There are many more hardworking people who haven't gotten the required breakthroughs..In every success, hard work is important, but relegating luck is undermining the position it plays.

saintdennis:
Like serzly the key this year was nani and cr7. They FINALLY put their egos aside for the team.

They weren't competing against eachother like previous games/tournaments.

Portugal had NO STRIKER Argentina had AGUERO/HIGUAIN/icardi(who wasn't picked + tevez) lavezzi sef dey, di Maria chaiii they could afford to not carry pastore

I still can't believe portugal used this time to win.

Guy, I agree their time has come..But I'm sure of the ego clash thingy.. In the last 2 euros that they have played together, they played very well..In fact, they were knocked out by luck in 2012 against spain in the semis on penarities..They have frequented the semis and finals and indeed their time has come

If Ronaldo has million number of fans, i m one of them If Ronaldo has 10 fans , i m one of them If Ronaldo has no fans, that means i m no on the earth If world against Ronaldo, i m against the world I love Ronaldo till my last breath Hit like if U are a real fan of Cristiano Ronaldo

.His time to smile don come. Na world cup remain for am now..

P0intBlank:
It's been a good weekend. My favorite sportsmen won this evening - First Murray and Now Ronaldo.

Lessons:

1) It's not how you start that matters but how you end.

2) When it's your time everything would conspire in your favour. Imagine Spain, Italy, Germany and France in the same half of the draw and Djokovic and Federer crashing out to lesser players.

3) Be prepared so when the opportunity comes you'd be in position to take advantage of it

True deductions. Thank you bro.

horlamelekan:
Flop of d tournament Pogba

Guy, why you go talk something like this? Because they lost?

No, he wasn't a flop. Yes, he didn't perform at the highest levels today.

My team lost..

Congrats to Portugal.....

Euro 2016...Haha...Up Portugal...My team lost...Oh! Anyway, anything happens in football..2004, Portugal were favourites, Greece won...2016, 12 years later, France were favourites, Portugal won.. In 2004, C Ronaldo cried..In 2016, he lifted the cup and was overly joyous..What a life!!

uplawal:
Christian way of life is evil i tell you,no reasonable muslim will reason the way you just did,from islamic perspective,its the duty of the brother to finance her on her education and all until she get married,its her right which is incubent upon him to fulfil,thankGod for Islam.

First, I assume you are bright and intelligent.

Second, based on the above assumption, I am seriously surprised at the generalization contained in your post.

How did you come to that conclusion? With how many data points? Mind pointing to a source?

banmee:
I don't know if you are serious or not, but I have been thinking of doing something like this come first of January. It would be nice if we, and by we, i mean people who are not rich but can help students in Nigeria with small stipends to sustain them in school. I am thinking of giving one deserving student, no older than 22, 50 to a 100 dollars a month for a year, every year. Problem is the selection process. What do you think?

In fact Banmee, it appears many people think the same thing simultaneously.. I have been thinking of doing this same thing that you have proposed..

I think the issue will be in selecting students who are bright and indigent..Getting bright students is not hard..Their universities can always be contacted to verify results..The problem is being able to decipher the students that are actually indigent and who would value this gesture..It's good to be bright and rich students, but such gesture shouldn't be for this set of students...

Hopefully, this second part will be solved via suggestions..

For the selection process, this can be done in different ways. One way is to administer an online or offline aptitude tests/exams on students who satisfy the bright and indigent criteria.

I just know she isn't 131. She no know her age

Na you born am?

Orkpekyandega:
I prefer Coach Emmanuel Amuneke to continue with his boys (the flying eagles) rather than take job. Because NFF have not repented from maltreating local Coaches. What is the assurance that he will endure their treatment?

In fact, it would be great if they could invite Keshi to take the chief coach job while Le Guen becomes the technical adviser..Amunike should continue nurturing the talents from U-17.

TheSociopath:
These people are definitely brilliant. While I don't mean to be cynical, I'd like to say that the Nigerian orientation towards job creation is faulty. We need to arise from our educational dogma which clearly pits us as job seekers, rather than job creators. Although some of them didn't attend Nigerian Universities but I won't revere their achievements if they don't solve part of world's problems, e.g. creating jobs for Nigerians.

Imagine this proposition: every Nigerian graduate with good grades, say 4.0 or above, should create 50 or more jobs as early as 7-8 years after graduating...

A PhD trains people to do research and contribution originally to existing knowledge-base or even create a brand new knowledge..I agree that a PhD can do a research that will proffer pieces of advice that if implemented will create jobs but the people whose achievements are being celebrated here are not PhD in Entrepreneur or HR or the likes..

StarOnEarth:
That's how babcock student graduated as best MSC student in University of Ibadan
After they all claim private university student are dullard.

You're very correct..I remember this argument..I wanted to talk about it and am glad you have already said it..She went to UI and was this best there, showing that there are private school students at least on the same level as federal or state university students..I have always maintained this position because I know it's true..I've worked with some Covenant peeps and know one or two Babcock people in my industry..They're good at what they do..

BrightEye:
I wonder why most beautiful ladies and hansome guys are dullards... intelligence doesn't mind the physical beauty!

Can you point to a research supporting this claim? How did you reach this conclusion?

adren:
I can bet with buhari's next trip that this girl is the daughter of one of Nigeria's minister..



No pun intended but I begin to wonder how her parents are gon sponsor her education..

Mind you, she's not on scholarship and those schools cost a fortune..

Before you bash me, reason am twice if your parents can afford to send you to havard.. $40k per academic session..


Even buhari had to sell his house.. (Though I don't believe it until I see pictures)..


She don cast her parents.. EFCC go begin find them now.. Happy for her though..

My kind of future wife..

Getting into an ivy league university is first dependent on a student's all round except performances, not the ability to pay...Getting into three ivy league universities is no small achievement..It's huge and comes with having performed exceptionally well academically and also in extra-curricular activities...This girl is outstanding and I wish her all the best..

There are credit providers like banks and others that are willing to provide student loans, so an exceptionally brilliant child does not have to be the daughter or son of a politician or business mogul before he/she can attend an Ivy League.
