Doku kicked the ball away when we had a free kick and he never got a card.

Yet again, but Doku kicked our free ball away and no warning was given given.
That’s the annoying thing. Our players protested that Doku kicking of the ball and the ref waved it aside. Now he brings out yellow second yellow for Trossard.

This is so shameful 🤮

I’m less concerned about opinion of people online who don’t live and can’t vote in the Election. I’m bothered about people who live in the state, experienced governance in the state first hand and still voted the way they did.

The APC guy practically didn’t attend any debate to discuss what exactly are his plans for the state and people voted him enmasse. Oshiomole was practically speaking everywhere on his behalf . Later if he is unable to any of those things Oshiomole promised , he will ask people to bring video of where he promised those things (Just like Buhari did )

The PDP guy is Obaseki’s stooge that promised to continue where his principal stopped . Probably when EFCC starts pursuing Obaseki he will grant him asylum like Yahaya Bello & Ododo in Kogi state . Is it not just rinse and repeat all over again ?

[color=royalblue]I sincerely would have wanted Olumide to win.

Not because of Obi or anything, but when systems fail, the people should have the power to change it.

Obaseki has failed, but because we don't want APC to win, let's vote him for 3rd term, when you clearly had a different candidate to pick.

Anyhow wey the election go, make una enjoy.

Now, back to 2027.[/color]
You hit the nail on the head.

This Edo elections just shows that Nigerians don’t have it in them to vote out failed parties and try out available alternatives .

Obaseki spent first 4 years as an APC governor and the last 4 years as PDP governor. The jury is out on his 8 years and it was unanimously agreed he failed in Edo state (He didn’t do better than Oshiomole of APC his predecessor ) .

Obaseki is the live representation of PDAPC. One would’ve thought the people who live in Edo state under his administration will shun both APC and PDP candidates and vote for the alternative option enmasse , but just look at the people focusing more on who has more structure and who can induce voters the most.

This just shows that Tinubu/APC will win 2027 presidential election irrespective of whether PMS sells for 10k per liter or people are dropping dead on the streets due to hardship .

Make I japa plans just work out, I will be sending prayers to support Nigerians by then ;make God open their eyes so they call stop falling in love with their oppressors .

The fkup of 40 years ago.

Na real wa
Nigeria is a crime scene .

You see that some of the impunities done during the military era were carried over and passed on even to the civilian rule .

Till date DSS still detains people without any legal justification and without court order. They just grab anybody they fancy, detain them and justify it by claiming it is for “national security “.

This particular man is just lucky he is blessed with long life , if not nobody would’ve heard his story and he would’ve suffered for nothing.

If we had a responsible legislative arm of government , I would’ve suggested that they come up with a law that allows government to seize assets of presidents/government officials that cause the FG this kind of monetary loss for their actions and inactions while they were in power .

So for example let’s say OBJ’s actions and inactions led to govt losing $10m 15 years after his tenure , then let FG pay the claimant’s $10m but OBJ’s assets should be seized and liquidated to recoup the $10m .

Martinelli was ineffective but I assume that Arteta was willing to sacrifice that match as a warm up to the Man City match.

By removing Partey and Saka, and giving time to Sterling has had Man City in mind. Taking Martinelli out was of no value to him.

Also, Martinelli is off form scoring wise and may need more minutes to reset his brain.
Let’s hope his sacrifice was worth it and it’s not a sign that we are on the decline sha

Hahaaa, doc abeg oh! Na so one guy dislocate ankle where e dey form agba defensive midfielder at him age. Baba, go ground go tackle, na so ankle damage from severe dislocation. By the time e finish surgery and post surgery rehab, his FMLA and reasonable accommodation (ADA) don expire, his company moved on from him, especially since his position required long standing and walking. Baba lost a great job and the gbese from the surgery after insurance coverage still dey.

Pick up basketball and football na mostly for fun and I dey use am activate/ stretch muscles that I don’t use often. Otherwise, the gym is my primary means of staying active and I no dey use am play. Also, those younglings sabi show off too much. Before you know, you don go viral from one wicked cross over or drimble wen dem copy from SM.
I stopped playing football about 4 years ago simply because of fear of something like this happening to me.

The Saturday morning set we usually play is a mixture of youngings, senior men and even artisans like mechanics, carpenter and bricklayers. We don't discriminate ; u can get picked on a set with random people because we usually role papers and the number u pick determines the set u will be on.

As much as we have referees and people are encouraged to play fair; there are still people who dish out rough tackles that has made few people seriously injured.

I had a one-on-one talk with myself one day and asked myself : If one small boy wey still dey primary school when I Don dey 100l for university break my leg now, wetin I go talk say happen to me to anybody that cares to ask? What will happen to my job? Will my employers allow me months to stay away from work to heal and recover? Is this football even feeding me to start with? 🤷‍♂️

Omo! That was the last time I went to play o. I just hanged boot.

Jodera:
I don't think it'll be irresponsible to be honest.

This guy have been playing with the first team in trainings. According to the few matches we watched him, the players have confidence in him hence they're not afraid to give him the ball. Even if it's to bring him on as a sub, it wouldn't have been bad. This is just the first UCL match so it's not as if it was even critically crucial sef.

There's a reason I wasn't talking about Odegaard's deputy for the past two seasons and that's because I believe Esr will take the slot when he's unavailable.

If Ethan is deemed too young to play ystdy game, then omorr, he's not ready at all. Maybe we were just building hope for nothing cos I'm certain if Esr is here, he would have certainly started yesterday.

If that's case then it makes the sale of Esr more baffling
If the match is not that crucial like u claimed , then why is everyone complaining and lamenting about the outcome of the match like we just lost a final? 🤷‍♂️


I already mentioned it here days ago that Arteta will most likely not throw the boy on the pitch except we are having like two goals margin.

We were all here when Saliba was bought and did not get considered because Arteta felt he wasn't ready. At some point some fans felt Arteta was being unfair to him. Today Arteta's decision has been proven to be a wise one

Arteta admitted that Saliba was not ready for the Premier League upon his arrival in 2020. “When he arrived at the club (in the summer of 2020, after his first loan), we wanted to observe him. We kept him for several months. Our assessment of the situation led us to two conclusions. Firstly, he wasn’t ready to play in the Premier League, at the level and in the role I thought he could have. Then, most importantly, the environment wasn’t good enough for him to progress, become what I imagined, and reach the potential he had,” Arteta told L’Équipe.


The decision was made to loan Saliba to OGC Nice and later Marseille, where he gained valuable experience and matured as a player. “I was 100% convinced he would play for Arsenal. But not at that moment. I told him I wasn’t going to throw him into that, he wasn’t ready for that,” Arteta explained.


Saliba‘s loan spells proved to be a turning point in his career. He excelled in Ligue 1, earning a call-up to the French national team and attracting attention from top clubs like PSG, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid. However, Arteta is adamant that Saliba is now a crucial part of Arsenal‘s plans.

“So he had to prove himself elsewhere. And he was incredible, consistent, regular, he knew how to handle other problems. He came back and, after one or two training sessions, in a new environment, we knew that from now on he could do it. Since then, he has proven it brilliantly to everyone. His progress and consistency are incredible. We are very happy to have him with us,” Arteta concluded.
If a coach is hesitant to throw a young player into a high intensity match like Champions league, he will definitely have his reasons which we may not agree with; but doesn't mean his reasons aren't valid.

Prof Rhoda Gumus is INEC electoral commissioner in charge of South-South.

She is a card carrying member of APC who was nominated by Buhari and confirmed by the Nigerian house of assembly despite widespread condemnation by civil society groups.

It's a given that Buhari may be unreasonable to have nominated a card carrying member of a party for a role as an electoral umpire; but it is totally irresponsible for the House of assembly to have confirmed such person despite genuine petitions written against her nomination.

I mean the house of assembly is expected to comprise of APC, PDP and other parties' representatives ; the question is why will a PDP, YPP Senator or reps vote for the confirmation of an APC member as INEC commissioner? Don't these people think about the implications of their actions while doing rubber stamp duty?

I think the legalislature is one of the most useless arm of government in this country. As far as Nigeria is concerned, checks and balances is dead!

APC arming thugs with guns caught by soldiers

The kind war wey go happen for that Edo state tomorrow ehn....

Today I watched a video of man who claimed he was attacked by APC thugs. He's a transporter who was wearing PDP colors when the APC thugs accosted him.

He said they asked why he's wearing PDP branded cloth and he answered that PDP was his party. They asked why he was supporting PDP and he told them no reasonable person will support APC when they are buying fuel for over 1k per liter.

The APC thugs were not pleased with his answer, so they shot his tyre's, shot at his vehicle and shot at him as well. He was showing the interviewer the bullet holes in his car and what appears to be bullet somewhere in his chest and belly...

The man said he was saved by GRACE OF GOD, but people in the comment section say make he talk true no be God no make the bullet no enter ; na him know where dem Don cook am 😂
