It's when you were trying to list achievements that other people have also done that I used other people to counter your argument.

I noticed how you smuggled "World Cup winners" to try and spice up your argument kolework.

Ronaldinho is a great player who spent too short of a time at the top to be using to troll a multiple time Ballon d'or winner with two international trophies to his name.

Go and siddon somewhere jor!

My initial response to the original post clearly stated that Wasiu should never be in the room because everybody in th room excepg him is a world cup winner. So this your talk about "smuggling world cup winner", na u know where you see am.

Nothing concern me with all your shalaye about so called time anybody spent at the top or bottom. I am speaking to the picture posted and from the picture posted it's pretty obvious Wasiu is the odd one amongst the world cup winners.

When Wasiu Don later win world cup, maybe I will have time to read all this petition you are writing on his behalf Sha

chrisooblog:
Roberto Carlos sef win WC dey team of tournament abeg talk something else.

Ronaldindo wey ordinary Fabregas outshine for UCL final na him you wan use raise shoulder?

Neither Roberto Carlos nor Fabregas appeared in the picture that is subject matter of discussion . Focus! No dey import players into the discussion wey no concern them abeg.

Na Wasiu be the least worthy amongst the players in the picture that was posted and he dare not talk where other World cup winners in the picture are talking.

I no know why you dey vex wan use rough tear Ronaldinho's shirt when he already paid his dues at the world cup stage.

chrisooblog:
Ronaldinho was a great player no doubt, but his influence wasn't as overreaching as the other greats. Yes he won the world cup but was he the main man? UCL he ghosted in the finals plus his peak was 2001-2008.

Ronaldinho won the 2002 World cup and he was in the FIFA all star team of that particular tournament. All this one you are talking about main man , you know wetin you dey talk.

Wasiu is the odd one amongst the players in the picture and does not belong in the same room every other person . Simple !

You go fear sarcasm 😂😂😂

As we head into 2027, I had to bring this video back.
Every Nigerian needs to see this.

The guy didn't do anything wrong there, can he try that in epl?
It's because it is a friendly match, the opponent only stopped him from attacking

The guy fouled him and he retaliated which is a red card. The outcome won't change even if it was in the EPL.

What I'm saying is that Iwobi was frustrated by the foul which was why he reacted in that violent manner. Na normal foul wey players like Xhaka fit do while he was at Arsenal. He will just get red carded and the match will continue.

At least Iwobi no bite am like Luis Suarez would do in that same position.

Tinubu to borrow another $6 billion a year to election . Issokay !

https://www.nairaland.com/8645377/tinubu-seeks-senate-approval-borrow

So apparently $1billion out of the $6 billion will go to the reconstruction & rehabilitation of Apapa & Tin can Island ports in Lagos.

Guess what? The contract for the reconstruction & rehabilitation of the ports was awarded to ITB owned by Chagoury (Tinubu's friend and Abacha's former bag man) without following any due process of public tender bid. That's $1billion going into the pocket of a close associate of the president without much oversight by any relevant arm/agency of the government . Just like that!

By the time Tinubu is done with Nigeria ehn......

In the letter, the President, who sought approval for a $1 billion United Kingdom, UK, export finance loan facility arranged by Citibank, London branch, said the loan would be used for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of Lagos Port complex and Tin Can Island Port.

The letter read: “The rehabilitation of the ports project is a strategic modernisation initiative of the Federal Government of Nigeria, through the Nigerian Ports Authority, to restore and upgrade two of Nigeria’s most vital ports, namely Tin Can Island Port complex and Lagos Port complex, Apapa, which have reached critical engineering failures.”

According to him, the project is aimed at addressing infrastructure deficiencies, improving port efficiency, enhancing safety standards and aligning Nigeria’s port facilities with global best practices.

MorataFC:
Yeah , It is capped at 1TB, after which your speed drops to 2 MB/s.
MTN FiberX appears to be a better option, Based on user feedback, but dat one can't cover every place in Nigeria, as MTN is just targeting urban areas alone.

UPDATE:

Yesterday evening I noticed the speed has picked up again. Netflix is back streaming without any lagging and I'm back to browsing seamlessly on both mobile and PC connected to the wifi.

iamoyindamola:
Iwobi is stupid sha

Alex Iwobi’s red card vs Jordan turned a friendly into a fiery contest, with both Nigerian and Jordanian players caught up in a dramatic on-field clash.

Was the decision justified, or too harsh? pic.twitter.com/eK2VaCEzFP

— Dr. Victor Ademola (@AdemolaVictorTv) March 31, 2026

I'm not really a fan of Iwobi, but I think I understand his frustration sha. He's human and sometimes emotions can get the best of you when you are a victims of some fouls didn't expect at all.

Though it is a red card offence no doubt, but I don't think Iwobi is stupid. I believe he was frustrated and let the Jordanian player's foul get to him.

What spectacular moments did wasiu have in the WC
Looking at the setting you should know it's about WC abi Pele and Maradona they follow them drag UCL too

U dey mind popi?

This one na normal primary school exercise called " find the odd one out of the following.... "

Wasiu is the odd one in the pishures because he dey inside room full of world cup winners while he never smell the cup before.

Make he dey look for spectacular wey no dey for Wasiu

izzou:
I trust the Senate to approve immediately

Akpabio wey fit don approve am before he even read the letter for senate chambers.

If any senator Wan raise objection, dem go off his mic and even suspend him if he create a scene.

We really Don enter am!

popizaino:
He has the least spectacular moments among the players there.

I don't care your beef with Ronaldo but he can't be standing up anywhere in football whilst the likes of Ronaldinho and zidane are on seats.

Beef kor, eran igbe ni .


Ronaldinho and Zidane won world cup ,Wasiu did not. He has no business in the premises talk more of having a seat in the room.

Tinubu to borrow another $6 billion a year to election . Issokay !

popizaino:
Ronaldinho!

I would have mentioned Zidane, but it seems he has more spectacular moments than the Brazilian.

Ronaldinho that was in the 2002 world cup all star team? Person wey win world cup and UCL as a key player; he still win Ballon D'Or yet you dey look for his spectacular moments ?

raumdeuter:
Who is standing up

Wasiu the "World-cup-less" fellow needs to vacate not just the seat, but the entire premises .

popizaino:
Allamdullahi i no disappear.

But this is not some strange phenomenon. Let me explain using larri.de for example.

You all know his position when it comes to Tinubu before he was elected. He supported him for presidency. Tinubu got there and disappointed him by removing the subsidy. As a reasonable person he is,he gave him (Tinubu) the benefit of doubts that yes it is possible to remove the subsidy on fuel if only you will put in measures to cushion the effects of these subsidy removal. And he didn't call him out immediately hoping things will be done with time .But when it seems Tinubu did not do as expected, what became of Tinubu from one of his most loyal supporter on this forum?

So if you can connect the dot with me,you will notice i don't usually call out mangers and players just anyhow,i give them time.

Meanwhile, my culprit is Cole Palmer to call out.

LMAO

He say he no dey usually call out managers and players.....Popi everyone knows you to be "Hosannah today, crucify him tomorrow". You no dey calm down to access player/managers but always get caried away in the heat of the matter until the player/manager gets exposed to be a wack job and you start changing mouth sharp sharp

Nigeria police happened to her, those guys are over useless
I don't know why there haven't been developed yet.

It's nit just Nigeria police, it's same with DSS. Remember one Anthony Okoli guy was arrested and detained for weeks because he bought a line that was previously used by Buhari's daughter.

After the guy was released he sued the government and was awarded N10m by the court.

Nothing will happen to him.

It's unfortunate we are sharing the same country with people like Bashir Ahmad, Gumi and a host of other bigoted fundamentalists Sha. I saw Bashir Ahmad tweets yesterday and just shook my head. Even Skales got so pissed that he went on a cussing spree in Hausa language against Bashir Ahmad hypocritical gaslighting he was doing with the tragic incident.

When the northern "hunters" were killed in Edo state they were all threatening fire and brimstone yet none of them was arrested for incitment. This Alex guy, VDM and other concerned individuals that have spoken for the Plataeu people are being threatened by the same hypocrites and accusing them of incitment.

Whatever happens, I know their madness and that of their foot soldiers has limits. They obviously won't do anything to the other than to sit behind their keyboard and be tagging DSS to arrest him.

In Nigeria one can just be minding his own business without committing any crime and still end up being jailed for someone else's crime.

This lady narrated how she was tracked by police detectives who disguised as customers of her online business, she was arrested and made to spend months on detention crime of kidnapping because of the sim card she purchased from Airtel network.

The sim was formerly registered to kidnappers who kidnap and killed the victim after collecting ransom from his family. Unfortunately for the lady, after the line was inactive for a while Airtel deactivated the line and then rolled it out as a new sim number which she bought and registered with her BVN. The police investigating the kidnapping case tracked the line and had her arrested for the crime she knew nothing about.

Even after the network providers confirmed she bought and registered the line almost a year after the kidnapping incident, the police didn't let her go immediately.

This is the real "May Nigeria never happen to us o "

DissTroy:
What happened to i-DICE? I kept bringing it up since early 2023 that it will be abandoned. i-DICE was suppose to take care of these things instead of the micro-managed ministerial funding to justify their budgets. PYO had it all mapped out and they should have followed everything in i-DICE.

i-DICE included growth mentoring with industry players, networking with Silicon Valley and the likes. Osinbajo had it all figured out with his team so why ignore it?

You supposed don know Nigeria by now na.

Every administration will float its own projects/initiative/intervention programs which may be similar or exactly same with a previous administrations. They will promote it and make it seem like the ideas are fresh and never been done by anybody before. In the process they will abandon the previous administration's wins and learning points. It doesn't even matter if the incumbent and past administration belong to the same political party.

The kind of politics we play in Nigeria is very wasteful and unnecessarily proud without minding the economic cost of such pride.

Amigoos1:
Some of the data providers in Nigeria are criminals. They might show you have used a certain amount but the reality is very different. I have tested it out before. I did a one gig Airtel sub to download something of 500mb and you won't believe it finished before the download was even concluded.

Nigerians have complained this thing tire, seems NCC is in cahoots with the telecommunication companies on this scam.

Amigoos1:
Isn't that amount to big for just 45winners?

What I mean is how about they decrease the amount while increasing the number of winners so more people can gain. Something like 20million per person and 120winners.

I don't think N20m will make any difference o. The N50m sef is just around $36,000 which is not a lot of money for a startup.

GloriousGbola:
it is also possible someone is sharing your internet

i have an app called glasswire for network monitoring. paid but the free toer may still work

i use it to confirm all devices on the network

if you install this you can confirm if there are any strangers

you can also confirm your internet use

years ago i stopped using the modems that come with airtel and co and started buying tp link desktop modem/router so i could monitor and control everyone's internet use. block websites from source, confirm just who used all teh ata and put data cap. doesnt work 101% because data tracking for users is lost during power outage

To the best of my knowledge, nobody is sharing the network with us.

iamoyindamola:
Are you sure you didn't open your WiFi for others to connect?
With all you listed I don't think it possible to reach 1tb in 14 days
Highest resolution on Netflix is 4k which is 10-15mbps

No I did not. The only devices connected on the WIFI are my phone, my wife's phone, our PC's when we need to work, our smart TV and C-sat Decoder.

My neighbors have their own passworded WIFI too and there's no how they would connect without me giving out the WIFI pass.

Bombblacks:
Alternatively there's an Airtel fibre plan that's capped at 3TB fair usage policy. I think you should go for that but it's pretty restricted by location.

The location thingy is why I didn't get MTN fiber X and opted for airtel ODU. Those fiber plans , you must be living in an estate/area where the telecommunications company must have assume it will be profitable to bring their infrastructure down there.

larride:
You are right. According to the minister of education they received 30,000 applications from 404 schools, from 30,000 applicants to 65 finalist to eventual 45 winners is a lot.

Hopefully the next one cohort next year can be increased to like 100 students. Me personally I prefer this type of direct empowerment than sharing rice or one of those bogus money sharing scheme.

I saw like 10 winners on X yesterday and you know that definitely that 50M is a life changing money for them and their startups.

Yeah, I agree with you 100%. This kind of empowerment makes more sense than spending hundreds of millions ( and even billions sef) in sharing nonsense palliatives that won't last a month.

Congratulations to the winners and hope they use the capital well so other smart chaps like them can be taken off the streets in years to come after their startups must have grown to be successive ventures.

GloriousGbola:
Call your isp to complain and they will start telling you differently.



1tb is not that big.

it is 33gb a day.

your average AAA game is 90 to 100gb
you have a console , that one can drop 20gb update without warning
if you and madam and pikin are doing netflix that one can come to 10gb a day
and if you have home office, it can be even more than this

I don't even play games online and don't upload videos on Youtube sef. That 1TB cap is actually actually small. Aside streaming movies the few times Adelabu give us light and when we put on generator (Mostly between the hours of 7.30pm to 11pm ), I don't see what would warrant the data to get exhausted quickly.

iamoyindamola:
True nothing like unlimited per say
But they really tried because 1tb is really big and fair

Baba 1TB is not really big o.

In my family for example, we have just two adults who use the internet; myself and my wife. My wife works from home while I go to work almost on a daily basis. When I'm home sef, I only do few official work from home and that doesn't consume much data.

I understand that the netflix and other streaming services consume much data , the tiktok and other social media apps we connect on our mobile when at home consumes data too; but I wasn't expecting that an unlimited data package will reach fair usage policy limit with at least 14 days to renewal cycle. I mean I'm not even into content creation or any tech job that requires much data uploads , so how is it possible that one exhaust an "unlimited " data plan within 16 days of subscription?

Bombblacks:
It's worldwide. Every network has Fair Usage Policy after you exceed a specific high threshold. Unlimited data simply means you won't be cut off but it doesn't guarantee unlimited high speed.

Alright then.

izzou:
I know it would look unlimited, but no businessman is just going to open the tap infinitely.

If I was using your Airtel Unlimited, I would never get to 500GB sef, talk more of 1TB. Na because you reach there you come see say e no be unlimited.

Every one has a cap. It might be so wide, that the probability of getting to it is very very low, but it cannot be unlimited

My local thoughts oh

To be fair , I never thought it would be possible to exhaust the 1TB data cap until now .

In the past I used to download my movies and series with office WiFi which l later watch at my leisure time . But since I got the Airtel ODU which they call “unlimited “ I just stream movies directly from Netflix and Amazon prime, I stream YouTube live of my favorite radio and TV stations , when I’m home and use all social media apps indiscriminately without paying attention to the data consumed .

I guess that throwing caution to the wind because one thinks it is “unlimited data sha” that always make one overshoot the data cap no matter how big it may be .

izzou:
I doubt if there's any in the world. There's just a large cap that has a low probability for you to finish in a month

Let’s not say in the world sha since na only Naija “unlimited “ data plan we don experience yet.

Maybe people abroad may have experience real unlimited data sha . One can never tell .

iamoyindamola:
You mean since you start using the ODU once you reach 1tb it starts throttling or once you exceed 1tb in a month it will throttle

Yes , seems I’ve not been paying attention enough to know that the throttling I always experience close to expiration is usually as a result of crossing the 1TB fair usage policy threshold .

I noticed it during the last two subs and can now confirm that once u reach the 1TB cap, u will experience terrible data speed that may not even work at all to download or upload .

I guess it’s because in the last 2 months I’ve done more Netflix and prime streaming than in the past . So it was easier to hit the 1TB data cap
