PoliticsManifest Scam From Delta State Government by Belleful(op): 1:21am On Oct 07, 2021
The Delta State government a.k.a "State bandits" with help from a bandit security unit know as " operation Hawk" that comprises of federal government security bandits of army navel airforce and police, along with some Delta State government bandit thugs have been terrorising drivers plying the warri to ughelli route in the name of enforcing the Delta State government "passegers welfare insurance scheme. From what we were told, each passeger is to pay a token of 100# to insure his or her life to the Delta State government. And inturn the Delta State government will now be responsible to help in case of accident on the way. What they are planning to do is good only if they are sincere and do accordingly to what the purpose of the scheme is met for. But you and I know our government is not to be trusted. We strongly believe gov okowa created that office for one of his boys to enriched himself. Why we may want to give them the benefit of the dought, here is grudges of drivers against the scheme.
1- the fare they charge each passenger from warri to ughelli is #300. Many of the passengers do complain that It's too high. Some will leave the park and go and enter along the road were they get it cheaper. So adding #100 to the #300 they charge them, making it #400 in this present time that the country is facing real financial backwardness is wicked and evil.
2- there was no formal announcement to inform the citizens of the state about the scheme, likewise the drivers.
3- they just came to the high way and start arresting vehicles especially sienna mini buses, and charge them to an arrange mobile court with a state
bandit gagaroo God will punish judge that will preside and fine you #20000 if you are not stubborn when they arrest u. But if you argue with them, then ur fine Increases to #30000 or #40000 and if u can't pay, d evil judge sends u to okere prison to serve a jail term he hands to u.
When d drivers got wind of the arrest and d exobitant charge, they decided to down tools and protest. They inform d state national chairman of road transport union who promise to look into d mata n get back to them and ask they go back to work that they will not arrest any body. D taskforce team left for about a week n them show up again and start arresting vehicles. The drivers protested again n this time a meeting was setup between the drivers representatives, the consultant in charge of the scheme n d state chairman of road transport union. At d meeting, d drivers told d taskforce people that from warri to ughelli is town service transport. That they pick passenger along d Rd. For those that do load from d parks, some passengers do stop at d many small villagies along d Rd and they pick other passengers there to ughelli.from warri to ughelli is just 15minites drive. Those passengers they pick half way, how can they capture their names on the manifest? So They couldn't conclude on a way forward n decided to meet another day. While d drivers continue with their work n wait till the day of the meeting, d taskforce team left d Rd as usual n on d day of d second meeting, they fail to show up. Why they continue with their work n believing they are gone for good, they reappear on a Saturday that nobody ever believe they will come. A driver called to say he has been arrested and they mobilize there only this time in a peaceful manner to know d way forward because it seems d union people are not helping the situation. They meant with d consultant in charge who briefed them about the scheme n then schedule a meeting with d drivers on how to reduce d money from d #100 to #50 per passenger. D drivers now ask they send their agents to come to d parks and start d collection which they agreed to, but fail to show up. When other drivers were told about d up coming meeting, some agree they should go, why others disagree on d ground that warri to ughelli drivers should never be part of the scheme. Some drivers went to d meeting just to hear what they want to say. There they agree to reduce d money to#50 per passenger. When those that went to d meeting came n inform other drivers about d reduction, majority kick against it and decided to protest again to send a message across to d governor. D protest actually took place with d drivers in ughelli matching to d office of d local government Secretariat to see d chairman who was notified of what is happening. D chairman got in touch with is counterpart in uvwie LGA n they both promise to Wade in n find a lasting solution to the issue. On Monday d drivers representatives went to visit d ughelli north LGA chairman for a feedback, which they came n inform others that d scheme has been cancelled. D government now announced that they will come out in full force to inspect vehicle papers n drivers license. D drivers said no probs. Yesterday being Wednesday they came n started checking of vehicle papers. When d drivers heard, those that there papers have exipired or do not have papers were advised not to work. Now not succeeding in arresting any of d vehicles over there papers, they now start asking for d manifest again. One of d drivers that was stop n check,n seeing his papers were up to date, they now demanded for d manifest. Not being able to provide d manifest, he was arrested. He went n inform other drivers n they inturn mobilize to know why they are arresting vehicles over d manifest issue that hass been cancelled. They treaten to block the Rd if they don't stop d arrest. Without waiting for d drivers to carry out d treat, they attacked d drivers using d booth of their guns to hit and brutalized them. One was injured on d back of is head who is now in a private hospital receiving treatment. Why d one they held was beaten to stupor they don't know is conrect condition. As a consign citizen of the state, I want to plead with d state governor senator Dr IFEANYI OKOWA to have mercy on d state citizens and stop this insurance scheme for transportation within the state. Things are going up up. Times are hard. Increasing transportation is Harding more hardship.

SportsRe: Olympics: Dream Team Atlanta '96 Listed Among Most Memorable Football Moments by Belleful: 10:33am On Jul 27, 2021
post=104138302:
Gbamsolutely it was!

Below is what all of us @[/b] remember about that Olympics.

Undoubtedly, as the thread says
It was the biggest win for Nigeria at the final of the [b]Atlanta 1996 Olympic football competition.

But even before reaching the final they had to see off the challenge of arguably one of the greatest Olympic football teams ever selected.

The semi-final against Brazil saw them overcome the shock of conceding a first-minute goal to run out 4-3 winners. Kanu struck home a memorable 90th minute equaliser to take the game into extra time before his golden goal killed the game and sealed an unforgettable victory for Nigeria.

It was the end of the road for Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Bebeto and Roberto Carlos, as Nigeria marched on into the final.

On 3 August, 86,117 spectators filled the Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia to watch Argentina take on Nigeria in the Olympic gold medal match.

Argentina took control of the tie, going ahead 2-1 with goals from Claudio Lopez and Hernan Crespo. But the Super Eagles were not to be denied.

In another incredible comeback, the Nigerian team first equalised with a 74th minute through a Daniel Amokachi strike before Emmanuel Amunike beat the offside trap to score a point-blank winner in the last minute of the game.

Nigeria had become the first-ever African nation to win an Olympic football gold medal. And they had done it in style.
It was a huge Barbecue parry all over the 4 corners of Nigeria back then.
Barbecue was lit from the house of MANNA.



The key players
are not forgotten,
The 'Dream Team', as the Nigerian squad were nicknamed after their Atlanta triumph, relied on many stars in 1996. But perhaps the greatest of these were the attacking duo of Okocha and captain Kanu.

Okocha, for his part, won the Nigerian Footballer of the Year award a total of seven times between 1995 and 2005, and his impressive skill-set - he even had his own trick, 'the Okocha flick' named after him - has seen him gain legendary status both in Nigeria and across the world.

It says something, though, that the Nigerian Footballer of the Year for 1996 was the tall, languid attacker Kanu, who has since gone on to be considered one of the greatest players in African history. Kanu went on to win the UEFA Champions League and two African Player of the Year awards in a trophy-laden career.

But it would be impossible to talk about the gold medal-winning Super Eagles without giving a special mention to Emmanuel Amunike - the player whose last-minute heroics sealed victory for Nigeria in the most important match in their history
How u all forget to mention WILSON ORUMA BAFFLES ME. ORUMA was the LUCKY CHARM AND SUPER SUB dat made us beat Brazil and Argentina.
