26 looks really reasonable. At d max he shouldn't be more than 28 if he finished secondary school at an old age of 18 in 2010

Now, you get my point

TheGoodJoe:
Your brother is not sure. That is the fact. From reports, when Ndidi joined Nath Boys (youth team), the players were older than him. He was a small boy among them. I doubt Ndukka Ugbade who coached Nath Boys then will carry a 19-20 years old man for U17.

Remember, Ndidi passed some MRI. He failed due to stricter rules from FIFA.

Nduka isn't Jesus Christ that can't be without falsehood. He could say that just to protect Ndidi's reputation

Danielnino00:
I asked about Ndidi though...

He was supposed to pass out in 2010.

TheGoodJoe:
Na wa.

Ndidi dropped out of secondary school. Talkless of finishing.

But was my younger bro's classmate. Please read well before arguing. 2010 was the year my younger bro finished sec school not Ndidi. I'm using that year as a yardstick to extrapolate his age.

First of all, understand something.
The laws in place in the west were setup by white male simps due to feminist pressure.
White men are generally spineless when it comes to their wives.
I like the idea of feminism, but it's implementation in many accounts is lacking.

Secondly, You say "family power" is useless. That shows you lack understanding.
"Power" is not about who is in power. Power is about who controls who is in power.
Like the old saying goes, the man is the head but the woman is the neck. The neck will always control where the head points.

Women are smart. Being the neck means you can rule without necessarily having to take responsibility for your rulership choices when things go sour.
Through incompletely thought through yet suggestive requests, these men in power figured it would be good to allow certain laws.
Women and children first has always been the motto. Men have always considered themselves expendable.

They felt like knights in shining armor after creating these laws because who wouldn't want to "protect women"? In so doing, laws that were meant for one thing i.e protection from physical abuse blah blah blah, have been abused by these same women to one-up men in any domestic dispute that happens.

Even look at the naming of some laws. VAWA...Violence Against Women Act...not Violence Against Spouses Act. That shows the intent of these laws and their originally altruistic intent. But as lawmakers never learn, before passing laws, always think about how that law can be abused, and make adjustments accordingly. Sadly they did not tackle these adjustments fast enough and now an entire industry has been built around the intimidation and oppression of men through divorce thuggery.

Whenever an industry has been built around a societal failure, that failure then becomes harder to rectify due to special interests.
Just look at the diabolic persistence of the generator industry in Nigeria as a result of the government's failure to buildup its infrastructure in time.

The only way to truly be safe as a man of his own accord in the west is to simply not marry and to not live together with a woman long enough for common law to kick in. That last one is something not a lot of guys know. Common law is also a nasty trap as well. The way it is set up in the US, women should be the ones paying men groomprice to marry, because they basically can take everything from you if they wake up one morning and are tired of you...even if you have proof that she cheated. There is a saying, "It's cheaper to keep her".

To the matter of prenup, yes it is very helpful, but only if you already had some assets from before you married her.
Because after you marry her, any new assets are within her grasp. Prenups are not bullet proof though and many family courts do throw it out the window, and all she would have to prove is "He made me sign it under duress" which, if she has a good lawyer (who you would also likely be paying for), could probably be "proven" on some esoteric and weird level.
Also, if you ever want there to be a penalty for your spouse cheating, a prenup is the only place to define that. The family court will not factor in that she cheated when raping your wallet and giving her your house in the event of a divorce.

However if you must marry, Honestly, the best strategy for western marriage as a man...

- Marry a woman who has and makes her money on the same level as yours or more.
- Never take on a woman as a financial project.
- Encourage her to always think on what to bring into the union as supposed to just what to take because she is a woman.

This will mean a more fair resolution in case things break in the future.
That is the only pure way to not get ganked as a man in the West.

"I am a woman and a real man would xyz blah blah blah" Is an old, cheap and outdated trick used on easily manipulated men, and women know this.
Your wife too should also buy you gifts not just one way. I saw a video of a woman surprising her loving husband with a brand new Tesla. No be human being like una she be?

.

With all this, its better not to even Marry. Just live your life alone and be free from man's perfect law. Marriage isn't compulsory and it seems to be the major source of sorrow these days.

Its better not to marry

Some Ladies wey never pass Obalende don suddenly turn foreign relationship expert. I dey sight una sha.

AndSunGorilla:
I honestly thought you were 23 o, abi your younger brother old pass you? Na joke o.

I'm older than you boy. Lolllll

Danielnino00:
He gave you the figure in the range of 25-29, not the actual figure..
Which means he isn't sure...which most probably means that he doesn't know..


May I ask,which year did Ndidi finish at CDSS?

2010

Danielnino00:
It's no insults ..

There's been some arguments here regarding Ndidi's age because he failed MRI..
Since u kinda knew him,maybe you would help us confirm...

Maybe I misinterpreted the emoji?

I asked my younger bro before typing my opinion and that was the range he gave me

Danielnino00:
Why don't u ask your younger brother?

Since they were classmates,he would know his age...

This sounds like a hidden insult. But I'll let it slide. Although, I did state that I may be wrong. I see no reason getting worked up over another persons age

Joebie:
Final Scores : HOFFENHEIM 0- 3 HERTHA
Kevin Akpoguma(CB) had a game to forget. He was a liability in all 3 goals conceded by Hoffenheim. The first goal came off his own boots while he failed to clear his lines in the 58th minute. He was caught ball watching instead of marking his man more closely for the second goal. Caught out of position at right back, he was turned inside and out by Matheus Cunha who had received a pass from Jordan Torunarigha. The Brazilian ran all the way to score the visitor's third.
WhoScoredRating: 5.74

Coincidentally, in the opposing side, Jordan Torunarigha(CB) also wore the number 25 shirt, and added to Akpoguma's misery by providing the assist for Hertha Berlin's third goal. Jordan contributed immensely to Hertha's away win with 94% pass accuracy, two of which were Key passes, and 3 aerials won. Jordan was the 4th highest ranked player on the pitch.

How far on Jonathan's front?. Still sticking with the Germans?

Coaching the army barracks youth team was former Nigeria international Nduka Ugbade, a tough disciplinarian who pushed the young players to their limits both physically and mentally.

“Ugbade is one of the biggest names in African football,” Africa-based sports journalist Oluwashina Okeleji tells BBC Sport.

“His opinion is respected and if he speaks to you, you listen. There is no limit with him. No excuses. He is a hard trainer but will not stretch you beyond your ability.”

Still, the tough training was too much for some but, as a skinny teenager who was also smaller than his peers, Ndidi felt such a work ethic would benefit him.

‘Take the ball and pass’ – keeping it simple pays dividends.

The discipline he developed from being coached by Ugbade meant he treated every game equally – competitive or friendly – and his big chance to impress the wider world came in a tournament in Nigeria, where international scouts were watching.

From an African sports journalist who knew about Ndidi at a young age.

Ndidi was my younger brother's classmate at CDSS Ikeja. I will thus put his age around 26-29. I may be wrong though. Who knows.....

jihday:
He's the only one who has gotten that opportunity, even that he flunked it as well

I wouldn't say flunked. He was relieved of his duties shortly after gaining promotion. For reasons I can't fathom

In my opinion, it'll be highly unwise to take sides on this bribery brouhaha (coaches vs players) until a proper investigation is carried out and hard evidence produced. Until then, its just a case of "your word against mine"

Danielnino00:
Post match interviews

Lollllll.

Nice qualities but the last one got me laughing

Danielnino00:
During Odegbami era,our football was largely concentrated on the local scene. European club football didn't gain much attention in Nigeria until the 1990s..Also back then,our league was more organized...A large chunk of our national team players if not all were playing in the local league...The same goes for the rest of Africa...

All this ur attack on Odegbami are unnecessary..the man remains a legend... Till today,some of those players who have played in the European league have yet to match his records in the national team.. That shows just how good he was! .

Attack the message not the messager

Bro, Segun Odegbami supposed take this your advice because that is what he has been doing.

It will be ungrateful not to defend Rohr after all he has done. Rohr has tried for us and I can't stomach when a local champion that never played in Europe maligns his hardwork

soetanoreoluwa:
Mind you Rohr is paying his three Assistants out of the 50,000 dollars... Also he has been accepting pay cut since the inception of the pandemic.

How many Nigeria coach can do so?

Gbam.

Don't mind them. They want the likes of Segun Odegbami and his local champions to take over the running of the team. People that have selfish motives in their attacks against Rohr.

E no go work

elyte89:

Now, Rashidi Yekini is a real legend whose status isn't limited to his local community

quickberry:
According to blueelf, not playing at the world cup means a player is not good.

Okay, so my statement dey pain you like this. Let me get you a bucket to cry more. Big baby.

Yes, Segun didn't feature or qualify for the WC and thus should keep quiet. You hardly hear Cantona criticize France's National Team coach of today even though he never got selected(which is different from Segun's case).

Continue to broadcast and cry more more because it won't change the local champion status of Segun Odegbami.

Olulong:
He won the CAF Cup Winners cup and was nominated for the African Player of the year twice. And by the way when he played African players barely played in Europe. So it's very unfair to use that against him really. And also less qualifying slots were available to African countries at the world cup(I think about one or two). He's still one of Nigeria's greatest player and after so many years he's the second highest goal scorer for the national team. He might not be saying the right things but please Don't undermine his achievements

I'll engage you on this.

Segun paid his dues. Okay, no debating that. But that doesn't give him the right to impugn on the achievements of Rohr and his players. I criticized Rohr during the EC and the last AFCON. And my criticisms were merited. I don't resort to attacking the coach/player personally like Segun does. If you note, I warned against the inclusion of Mikel in the last AFCON and many unintelligent people here assumed I had a personal grudge against him but I turned out to be right at the end of the day.

Danielnino00:
Funny enough,you belong to the same class @ the bolded..

Were you not the same person throwing criticism and insults at the players and Rohe himself during the AFCON..

I blamed Rohr's tactics but never called for his sack or even asked that a Local coach take over. That would have been a big mistake

quickberry:
Stop arguing blindly. My bone of contention with u is that u believe that for a player to be regarded as being good, he must have won the champions league or played at the world cup...Cantona never played at the world cup, so he is not a good player according to u

You just choose to pick one thing out of context and attack. If you can't take the pain to read from the origins, then I can't school you further. Good luck bro and have a wonderful day

quickberry:
The fact remains that he didn't play at the world cup, shikena

And the fscy remains that cantons and Segun aren't mates in world football. Shikena. Abi toi think say Man-U na stationery stores or shooting stars of Ibadan. People wey no even dey NPFL again.

Abeg, make una go sit down.

quickberry:
Stop dribbling, according to u, playing at the world cup, winning champions league e.t.c are the criteria for being a good player.

I'm not dribbling. You know my sentiments from the start. Segun contributes nothing to improving our football but whines and cries like a cosseted baby day in day out. He wouldn't do half as good a job as Keshi not to even talk of Rohr.

He should learn to keep silent on certain issues and respect himself particularly if he hasn't done anything as a coach.

Rohr has shown maturity to not engage carpentry analysts like Segun. Something most local coaches wouldn't do.

Rohr is one of the best coach we've ever had. Granted he has his flaws as do others but what he need is advise and constructive criticism not character defamation.

While I hope Rohr goes for some refresher courses, I feel that the man has done a good job considering where we were before his arrival. You people seem to forget so soon or are you just protecting Segun because he is a Nigerian? Why he is doing in the media is wrong.

quickberry:
What about Eric Cantona? Did he play at the world cup?

Because of his attitude. That's understandable bit please don't ever compare cantons to odegbami. Ever.

quickberry:
Dumb analysis, George Weah didn't play at the FIFA world cup but is the only african player to win the world best.

at least George weah was recognized the world over and is actually doing something to improve his country's football fortunes.

Has Segun ever paid for the air transport of his teammates?

Has Segun ever paid for the jerseys of his teammates.

Paid for their feeding? Or hotel bills?

Weah did this as a player. He didn't just sit around and criticize his country's NFF or certain players unintelligently. He helped the best he could unlike uncle Segun.

Good day bro.

Olulong:
Which Kain Carpentry analysis be dis

Na Segun you suppose dey ask this question.

You still haven't answered my question.

We all know that Segun was only good enough for the local scene and couldn't even win AF champions league or even CAF player of the year. I wonder what his agenda is for downplaying Rohr. You self think am

brenister10:
Another indomie generation boy spotted. How many African players were playing in Europe then? Just because you started watching football when European leagues were shown week in week out on TV makes you rant nonsense here. Agreed, odegbami might misyarn but to say he's overhyped defines how shallow minded you are

You're the shallow-minded one. Oga, if odegbami was really good, European scouts for look him side. He was only good enough for Naija league.

Okay, why didn't his generation qualify for a single WC tournament. I see that you stylishly avoided this. He couldn't qualify for a single WC yet his generation is quick to play down the hard work of Rohr and his boys

Look, Mr Man, I'm all for constructive criticism but not downright hatred and malign of character. This is what Segun is doing.

AndSunGorilla:
This is carpentry analysis at its very best!!!

This award should go to Segun.

His dislike for Rohr is becoming really annoying.
