They defintely got something significant in return. Perhaps the exclusive right to a recently discovered mine. cheesy grin

Sowore, KANU can never be freed!
Buhari already promised he would "treat him and his followers in the language they understand" and he, Buhari has started this.

My question is why would the UK turn their back against their citizen?

Arresting Sunday Igboho would be the last thing this government wants to do.
Ategberoson:
Nnamdi KANU is going Ojukwu way




the man that see tomorrow but cannot apply wisdom to exploit it. arresting KANU means Sunday igboho is not untouchable


Sunday igboho should strictly face Yoruba land securities while we put pressure on our activist to take the mantle of restructuring/ or referendum


this ain't an act of cowardice, when ESN started the securities in East, many Fulani herdsmen have been relocating but killing of the armed men and reinforce of special task forces give them more confidence, KANU played in the hand of Fulani very well

You arguing the bolded is what I am worried about. I am very sorry for you.
96forever:
Mbappe knocked them out mumu, you and that expert in foolishness know nothing, Mbappe missed a clear chance to send them through from a sublime Pogba pass, he still missed the crucial pen that knocked them out and you are here crying about Pogba getting dispossessed.

You should be worried that he’s the only world class player we have in Manchester United.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by benji93: 11:02am On Jun 29, 2021
If you look at it carefully he didn't actually control the ball as in hold it. Once the pass got to him he kind of just flicked the ball slightly to the left, which indicates that he was probably unaware of the player. I think he was looking to go back, ease tension and re-initiate the offense, perhaps with a back and forth with Kante. In fact just controlling the ball would probably not be enough in that situation. He would have to make a quick pass to redirect the ball or control and turn right. I would expect a really good midfielder to do this. Mastering the art of quick passed, control,turn and awareness are very basic qualities of a good midfielder. Van der Beek will never make this kind of mistake.
Expert17:
He controlled the ball and rolled it to his left, his head was down all through ( not sighting available passing options or the player rushing from his left side).
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by benji93: 10:39am On Jun 29, 2021
You see why I said you need to learn? I never said Pogba was trying to dribble. I just went straight to the openings i saw. A good midfielder doesnt have to control the ball to make a decision. As the world-class midfielder, he should be expecting panic passes too. I am trying to be very respectful man. You dey fall my hand with this takes. It looks like Kante should be the one teaching Pogba some awareness. Kante Kate is obviously not much of a talker. Besides must we shout at a player in order for him to realize an opposing player is lurking around? Pogba clearly lost awareness there and that was terrible. Sorry, but this understanding is clearly above your weight. If one midfielder at Norwich made such a blunder I wouldn't even mind. But this is 'worldclass' Pogba. I can't believe you don't see that was terrible.
Trevor012:
You are typing more nonsense cheesy cheesy. After lying that Pogba was trying to dribble you have switched to typing shalayes. You can clearly see he was trying to release to ball once but was blindsided. That's where your teammates come into play and give you a shout but the useless Kante was standing there like a man confused doing absolute nothing.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by benji93: 10:13am On Jun 29, 2021
Ofcourse I am not surprised. As a good student I checked your video. A quality any good midfielder should possess is awareness. He should have seen that coming. If he had turned right, that would have simply eased the tension. Bear in mind I am referring to a quality I believe any good midfielder should have. You people not only consider him good, but world-class. So by that standard Pogba messed up. If you do not yet know this, then there's still much you need to learn. Typing 'nonsense' is the least of your worries. Believe me.
Trevor012:
Stop typing nonsense here. Before Pogboom could even trap the ball to release it he was blindsided by someone coming from his back with Kante standing there doing nothing. Watch this and educate urself.

Pogba is what the Oyinbo people call luxury. Could be incredible when your team is good and could be flat out useless when your team is average, at least that is Pogba on average over a considerable period of time. @Expert17 posted a picture somewhere. I do not know how a serious midfielder would not see any of those openings. If you are still building a team Phone is not someone you can depend on long term. Now when your team is doing very well? Of course who wouldn't want him? Even if your team is good you need to be careful, cos he's capable of carelessly putting up disasterclasses. Know this and nothing will surprise you about that young man.

There's one reason i have not quite commented on the Durant matter much, especially in comparison to Lebron. I am not going to be the one that makes @steady986 smile here by saying nice things about the man. cheesy. But I do think nobody here considers KD on the same level as Lebron. And can I not be the best player for one year in peace, or even for a few months, aba? cheesy. Abeg, just leave KD alone, he try, but well some dey try pass others. No be so this life dey? The man that said Lebron was coasting through the East with no problems made some sense, i no go lie you. We could argue the specifics, as in the conference was softer during this person's time blablabla, or it's more competitive now(which i would argue. cheesy), but it is what it is, that man(i did not mention any name ooo. cheesy) try well well when he was playing there.
birdman:
ya know! If it was Lebron that missed the jumper Durant airballed, HEI!!! This thread for collapse grin grin grin

3 years ago, folks were already calling Giannis the next Lebron. Then it was supposed to be Kawhi. Then Durant. Tomorrow someone will say its Luka cheesy. See, its one thing to be able to drop 40. Its another thing to drop 40 when the defense is designed to stop YOU. And its another thing to will your team to a win with defense, steals, rebounding and bball IQ when your shot isnt falling.

That is why after MJ, it was Kobe, then Lebron. No one else has fulfilled this criteria of current best player among current superstars. It should be Kawhi, but he is turning to Mr Glass, getting what I feel is bad advice from his camp. He never even tries to play through anything. AD sef fall my hand.

Why you wan turn am to fight? grin. Na reference i reference now. You already know my stand on that man. He's one of the purest of them, and you won't have him and not be a decent team. Where you and i part ways is your claim that he's more impactful than Curry is kind of a stretch. ANd you know that. As you know how to cause problem, me to know how to cause problem. cheesy

On a more serious note, i think we may have to wait for a year or two inorder to ascertain the stardom/superstardom of these players.

Christianity Etc › Re: What Did Paul Mean When He Referred To The "Lawless One" Also As "Man Of Sin"? by benji93: 4:18pm On Jun 27, 2021
Why do you opine the bolded is the case? The little child analogy was clearly made by Jesus in reference to righteousness.
awitness41:
Yes, excellent DT !

Sin is the transgression of the Law.

And also, although not starting with "sin is...", 1 John 5:17 (NKJV) says "All unrighteousness is sin."
And there is one more definition of sin in James 4:17 (NKJV): "Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin."
If we put these together, keeping all Truth, we see that sin is the transgression of the Law, a Law which defines "all righteousness" (to which James also agrees... not doing that which we know is righteous).

That answers question #3 above, thank you.

Questions 1 and 2 are surely connected somehow...

I have to go now, but in the meantime I remember seeing you were now reading the Bible, with the intention of reading it all the way through.
May I humbly make a suggestion... or maybe it's actually a reminder of support in that endeavor ?
If one starts with the Gospels of Jesus Christ in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and, John, and reads them on endless reel for life (at least 3 chapters a week, or more), it is very helpful, because Jesus is the one who gives us proper perspective on how to discern the rest of the Bible.
For example, many false prophets preach a "mangled version" of Paul such that they have Paul disagreeing with Jesus.
The Real Paul doesn't disagree with Jesus, but their "mangled version" does.
So if we read something that seems to disagrees with Jesus, Who is right ?
The answer is obvious... Jesus is !
That's how Jesus gives us help in discerning the rest of the Bible... because as God's Son, He's never wrong !
And another reminder for encouragement: remember that one must become like a[b] little child in Faith to enter the Kingdom of God[/b].
Don't believe people have to the smartest in the class, or to somehow be "successful" in whatever worldly endeavor they have (like a job).
If we carry any pride about our sinful selves, it impedes our growth in the Word of God. We must forsake all for Jesus, even our "self".
You know me, I could go on, but I've got to go for now.
Thanks for your support in this post.

I actually told someone here to sit down and just watch. I have said and I am saying it again, the unpredictability of this playoffs is very obvious. PG, please do not tell me your demons are tinkering with your free throw shooting now. grin. Factory settings loading. But you never know, this might not just end up being a 7 game-series. You knew, now you don't.
@steady386, Kobe had several terrible playoff nights too, so cut Booker some slack. If he was being compared to Kobe it's definitely not with respect to his defense. cheesy. And stop behaving like a novice, we all know the American media exaggerates. They are always cooking up stories. Oh he was mentored by Kobe, so that must be the mamba mentality showing. Well they may actually be getting paid to do that.

@birdman over to you. cheesy grin
Android17:
George Paul let his team down. Apart from the bad three point shooting of the Clippers. He was just missing key free throws and shooting poorly. Not good enough for a team that wants to win. Happy for Ty lue because he won't lose his job and with Kawhi they can try to run it back. As for the Suns. They are running on fumes now. They look spent. They are a good team and have shown us what they could be like from the bubble last season. They won 2 games relatively comfortably without CP3 and struggled since he came back. So we have enough data to effectively die this fake prisoner-of-the-moment CP3 narrative. At this point in time, I think Giannis will win his first ring and FMVP title.

Not so simple. Just fold your arms dey watch. I won't be surprised if the Suns kick the Clippers hard forcing you to rethink your stance. grin. As in maybe, he's not figured them out after all. One thing you can trust in this playoffs is its unpredictability. You think you know it one time until the results play with your mind.

Family › Re: “If You Fight My Side Chick, I Will Upgrade Her To Wife” - Nigerian Man. by benji93: 6:32pm On Jun 22, 2021
Deuteronomy 21 vs 15. 2 Samuel 12:8.
simplesearch:
At what point were they the apple of God's eyes, definitely before they drifted. God is no respecter of any man.
David had that testimony even before he was anointed as king, but at the latter part of his life God told him "the sword shall not depart from your house'' 2 Sam 12:10.
Solomon was loved by God but the latter part of his life was in ruin, why? ''Was it not because of marriages like these that Solomon king of Israel sinned? Among the many nations there was no king like him. He was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel, but even he was led into sin by foreign women.'' Nehemiah 13:26
For Abraham though he am-mended his way by sending Hagar away as requested by his wife Sarah but the did has been done. Look at God's warning to Abraham after taken a long break from him that lasted for about 13years due to his immoral relationship with Hagar that led to the birth of Ishmael in Gen 17, '' And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect''.
Moses was never a polygamist, he stuck with his Ethiopia wife despite a tacit disapproval from Mariam and Aaron which led to Mariam being visited with leprosy, so read your bible well.
Gideon was a complete mess up at the latter part of his life, infact no one who seek to follow the way of God should desire such a life. His place in eternity is highly questionable for he did not only became a polygamy, he also went into idolatry.
For Jacob hope you saw what happened to his household, the envy, jealousy, murderous tendency, evil conspiracy, prolonged and hidden lies, selfishness. The turbulence resulting from his life of unrest made Jacob's life miserable, look at his submission in
''Gen 47: 8 Pharaoh asked him, “How old are you?”
9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty. My years have been few and difficult, and they do not equal the years of the pilgrimage of my fathers.''

Notwithstanding, the coming of Christ has cancelled any form of permissible disobedience to God's law especially in the area of marriage, it is so serious that even the disciples concluded it was better not to marry as stated below. So many people are actually going to end up in hell because of marital issue, if they do not seek the face of God. You can't beat your wife or keep a side chick or run a parallel relationship with another woman, and the woman other hand cannot divorce her husband or remarry as long as the first partner is alive. No extramarital affair is allowed after marriage, even if the world is going berserk or against this command they all will be judged at the end of time.

Matthew 19:10
The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”
Family › Re: “If You Fight My Side Chick, I Will Upgrade Her To Wife” - Nigerian Man. by benji93: 6:17pm On Jun 22, 2021
Says who? Which bible are you reading?
simplesearch:
God's authority supersede any religious fallacy and man-made laws. Polygamy or any form of absurd marital relationship or sexual orientation is forbidden by God.
Family › Re: “If You Fight My Side Chick, I Will Upgrade Her To Wife” - Nigerian Man. by benji93: 5:31pm On Jun 22, 2021
The earlier you understand which analogies are not useful, the better for you. Although sinful, a man with a side chick is different from a woman with a side guy.
ChiefSosa:
Some people never grow up, they just grow old. His white hair would've fooled people into thinking he's sensible. If you respect yourself, your marriage, your wife and possibly kids, why would you go about having a side chick? This is not about being an "Alpha male", this is just about COMMON SENSE. If you met your wife with her Side guy in public, would you be quiet? She is human and emotions can make her do anything at the moment.
Life isn't as complicated as y'all make it seem. When I'm single, I can do as I like with anyone I please, as long as its consensual and of age.
When I'm in a relationship, I stick with one female. Nobody forced me into a relationship and nobody will force me to stay if I lose interest. If I want kids without sticking to one woman, then I have baby mamas.
If I'm married and I want more than one person, the I go for polygamous marriage or have an open relationship, that'll be done with the consent of my partner. Aye o le f'eni to ni gbagbo pe aye o le
Family › Re: “If You Fight My Side Chick, I Will Upgrade Her To Wife” - Nigerian Man. by benji93: 5:28pm On Jun 22, 2021

This pandemic looks to be making stars of solid role players. Any GM knows better than to max a player who's not a Superstar. Maybe they should allow increments and decrements based on performance, or shorter-term good-money contracts, so you don't bleed too much even if the player resets to factory settings. grin

If by midfielder he means someone who controls the midfield, then he's probably correct. It's either it's not his forte, or he just doesn't play that role.
elrony:
Talking about "instructions", doesn't it then validates the fact that he's playing to the Portuguese manager's "instruction" by playing further off the middle?

I think he's just off form at the moment, accumulated fatigue maybe.

Or perhaps the coach has to be flexible with his tactics, he did it against Hungary and it yielded positives

Saying he's not a very good midfielder is dark magic talk cheesy
Sports › Re: Odion Ighalo & Estranged Wife, Sonia, In Fresh War Of Words (Photos) by benji93:
O yes. The Scriptures are obviously silent on the matter of how many wives. Exodus 21 vs 10 clearly indicates that more than one wife is allowed, in which case there are certain duties you must fulfill. Although i do believe one man one wife is the ideal marriage, not that having more than one wife is a sin. But you know we the sons of men in all our free will never be satisfied. grin.
