theres nothing joyful about going to war to be honest! My friends were all hyped until they deployed there! Some of them would never be the way they were again! From ptsd to insanity! You think war is fun, wait until you take a bullet in the head! My very good friend lieutenant Hamzat Buba that was on this thread in 2015 when he joined my officers group, finished training, we popped bottles that day! Still spoke to him in the academy in November after I was dashed high bp! He was telling me to calm down and promise to come again! He was shot twice in the head just a couple of days after! It’s all fun and games until it’s your own 21 gun salute. The only thing that will make me go to war is the sense of duty for the job! It’s not something to anticipate! People that had gbewa more than you don go!
It’s still the best job in the world doe...and that pip, we will hang it
Please Sir, continue to enlighten them. They think its all fun and games... COD and what's not.

When you're fatally wounded, you die and that's it...all dreams and ambitions become naught.

No Medal of Honor Ceremony here for Naija soldiers oooo. Even the ones that died bravely, we don't get to hear about them (or have you). So, they shouldn't think they would be honored here like its done in the USA

More news, my good people...

From a reliable source of mine. Official bids put in for Sadiq Umar are from Lille, Gent, Lyon, Sampdoria, Parma and Sassuolo.

Nothing is agreed yet. Nothing is concluded. But official bids from these sides have been made.
Lille or Lyon for me (if concrete)

Of all the clubs Osimhen could have stepped up to, Napoli is the best to move to.

1. They are an 'almost big' club. This means they are a big club but not World class like Juve, Inter or Milan. So there would not be too much pressure on him to quickly perform.

2. Napoli average the highest possession in Italy with 57.24%. This means they are always guaranteed to be in the front foot. In comparison, Lille averaged 51.7%, while Real Madrid 56.5%

3. Napoli average the third most shots attempts per game in the whole of Europe. Only behind Atalanta and Mancity. This means not only do they keep the ball, they are attack minded.

4. Napoli have the 5th best passing accuracy in the whole of Europe, only behind Juventus, Man City, PSG and Barcelona. This means that Osimhen is guaranteed quality service from teammate.

5. They stick to their system. Sarri, Ancelotti and Gattuso have managed Napoli, yet for they last 3 system, they've stuck to this system.

6. Napoli are renowned for producing proven goalscorers. Hamsik, Maradona, Higuain and Cavani have graced the club. So Osimhen is promised stardom.

That was why I made this statement when I learnt of the move.
Wow....very impressive bro.

Seems like you did your homework

I felt Napoli was too defensive for osimhen and they played Diego simeone style of football..but with all these stats I am seeing, I may be wrong.

But will Osimhen get playing time there??

With the likes of Santa Clara's Zaidu Sanusi coming through and already on Rohr's radar (He and Rohr has spoken) and with Aina in the picture as well, Collins' spot as LB is no longer guaranteed. A return to bundesliga.2 will be of no help for sure unless he can perhaps secure a move to another Bundesliga side or maybe outside Germany.
Santa Clara.... Sorry bro, this is the first I'm hearing of such team...from where?

Exactly....I was hoping Ajax would finally look his way seeing that he is young and has great potential and would fit into their pattern.

And i don't really think Turkey is a good idea. France would be nice...but its his choice at the end of the day sha

Dessers Keen On Genk Move


https://www.completesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/IMG_20200615_124443-400x250.jpg

Cyriel Dessers has sets his sights on a move to Belgian Pro League club KRC Genk this summer, reports Completesports.com.

Dessers is expected to leave Eredivisie club Heracles Almelo this summer with Belgian clubs, Genk, Antwerp and Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray among his suitors.

The Nigeria international, who was born in Limburg, Belgium once had stint with Lokeren in the Belgian top flight.

According to soccernews.nl, the 25-year-old is keen on a return to Belgium with Genk his preffered destination.


Genk are already in talks with Heracles, who have demanded €5m for the striker.

Dessers linked up with Heracles from another Eredivisie club FC Utrecht last summer.

The former NAC Breda star scored 18 goals and registered six goals in 29 appearances for Heracles.

He was top scorer in the Eredivisie along with Feyenoord’s Steven Berghius.

Crime › Re: Nigerians Commence #StopRapingWomen Protest Against Sexual Assaults by Blueelf: 5:10pm On Jun 01, 2020
philip0906:
Clowns!!

Sit behind their keyboards and jump on the bandwagon to look cool and sound woke. I have screened through social media & comments of many of the so-called celebrities and just shook my head. Not even 1 single post, to request and demand for the right thing.

Since the advent of twitter and social media in the country, we have lost count of the number of hashtags that have been created. Many of the hashtags, have been lost in the dustbin of tweeter & facebook but the problems & challenges, still remain.

You expect a rapist to reason? Or you expect a rapist to see the "say no to rape" hashtag and decide " Okay, I won't rape again"? Has any one ever asked why these rapists are on the prowl and moving unabated? Why are they so emboldened? They know they can easily get away with their crimes, because;
1. The country has very lax & porous security apparatus to even track & identify them
2. The judicial system is not effective.

In saner climes, these societies know that rapists do not reason and so they have created an enabling system to checkmate them. What Nigerians should be asking for are;
1. Reform of the judicial process to expedite cases as well as become more efficient
2. Complete overhaul of the security apparatus even if it means state policing
3. Ask the authorities why we do not have a central repository of DNA & finger prints. Millions of Nigerians have finger prints with the banks, Immigration service, National Identity, but there is little way to tie them to an identity. This is what societies are using to checkmate crime but it's rocket science here.

The crime scene where the girl was murdered, clearly had tons of evidences lying around but because of the above issues, getting a lead on the perpetuators of the crime, is a tall order and hopefully, innocent people are not paraded in the coming weeks as the ones behind the crime.
Bless you brother.

You see this recent online brouhaha about rape? It too shall soon pass and fade away.

Many Nigerians have short term memory. It shall soon be forgotten. Most of these celebs are really heartless and will jump on any sad social occurrence to market their PR.

Wicked people

Stop using your younger brother's age to judge some other people's ages.

There are 14-year olds in SS3. I met 8-year old twins that were in JS2, in 2008, Government school o, no be say na Private. They will graduate at 13 and they had classmates that were 15-17 in the same JS2. If one of those classmates was your brother, you will say these twins are 27-29, because they were classmates with your brother

Stop calculating ages based on your brother's age.
The way some of you are getting worked up over another person's age bugs me.

I just said that I may be wrong. Also, I can use my younger brother's age to guess Ndidi's age if I so wish.

After all, its football and the ages of many players are in doubt.

And if I am right after all, his case is still better than Macauley Chrisanthis et al.

So yes, Ndidi is between 26- 31 self..... Anybody wey no like my opinion, na him problem be that grin grin grin

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

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
