Those guys are shocking. Imagine saying things like “united didn’t really perfom well in this game”…. Without pointing out what exactly made them play poorly. None of them can give any form of tactical insight into any game.

None of them has ever dissected the way any of the top teams play that gives them an edge over others or makes them weaker against others. Many Nigerians are just dull and accept the barest of minimum.

palmer doesn't have the range function as any of these

If you know the terms and conditions wey the Americans put on Gulf Arab countries.. U go know say Naija own na small thing.

All of us dey here when IDF bombed Qatar. Qatar have American patriot air defense/THAAD system, none of dem was activated because it the Americans who operate them.

If you think that giving away 30-40% of oil revenue is simply because we don't plan for the future or don't have visionary leadership. That's your opinion. Our people talk say that;

swiz123:
Does Nigeria have any football analyst at all? Why are all these TikTok content creators representing Nigeria as analyst? Kombo, Stones, Adika barely know the basics of football and just create content, Omoo.

Useless Stones is using long pass and chance create to prove that Bruno is a better CM than Pedri.

popizaino:
Some of you are better off reading about transfer news,calculating players' wages,net worth,girlfriends,lifestyle,cuisine,dressing room matters etc.

Nothing should concern you about football tactics and on-pitch actions.

I don't know how asking Cole Palmer to play a sitting DM is weird? Do you even know Andrea pirlo started off as an attacking midfielder?

Even Xavi played at the base of the midfield sometimes.

Ok...it is not a weird thing to see James in the midfield but it weird to ask an attacker midfielder to drop to the base of the midfield.

I will not even give you reasons as to why i came up with that,if you think it's a weird take,then so be it.

This is what happens when you cannot challenge yourself on what you know.

On August 29, 2025, a sum of N5.578 million was paid into his personal account with the description, “August 2025 Salary Ajaokuta Steel Company.”

AbdulSalam was appointed by President Bola Tinubu in April 2025, according to publicly available records and a statement issued the same month by presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga.

Despite its non-functionality, the Nigerian government proposed spending N6.04 billion on personnel costs for workers of the company in the 2026 budget estimates

The total allocation for the company in the budget stands at N6.69 billion for the year. Of this amount, N6.04 billion is earmarked for personnel costs

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
I agree. Those radio guest/analyst dey very very correct. But at the bolded where is where I disagree with him, him thinking that after 65years that we don't have the technical capability or funds to buy those equipments and do the exploration/drilling by ourselves.

I dey talk am since but una go think say na because I hate the West. That thing is a colonial agreement imposed on us. It will continue to be like that. Any day any government say we don get plenty petrol-chemical engineers, that will can handle it by ourselves. Dem go remind us that our government does not respect fundamental human rights, that election is not free and fair thus justifying the Maduro treatment on the government. If the government challenge dem, dem go put bounty on dem, tag dem as terrorists.

As bad Buhari was, the economy was far better under him.

This is the right time for us to cash out via oil revenue/sale. Russia is making almost 150m dollar per day in oil/gas revenue because of this war. Why is our own different?

WhoDeyHause:
It's the club that reported itself to them while investigations were going on so we will have a smaller punishment but gba city is still allowed to sign players even with their 115 charges that we don't know when they will finally collect.

We are stuck with these defenders for another season

Dear God, it's not too much... Not much at all

And by the special grace of God, one bottom team manager should win all his matches in March and carry the MOTM.

That was the same argument I had in mind. If we are to go by their logic, then Igor Thiago of Brentford also deserves it.

The year Company, a defender won it, Van Persie was on fire for us.

Last last na just agenda, especially as we are almost certain of winning the league.

They just want to take something from us.

Gabzy1:
We have really come a long way. We have finished second three consecutive times. I strongly believe this season we will get the job done.

That title run in 22/23 was a very painful one. Initially, nobody thought we would challenge for the title. But we kept on winning our matches, and then heading into April we were 8 points clear—although Man City had a game in hand.

Our lack of squad depth killed us back then.
Saliba's injury around March dealt us a huge blow.
We ended up drawing with Liverpool, West Ham, and Southampton before eventually losing to Man City.
The squad is much more experienced and deeper now.

Everyone has put in a good shift even though I criticise them at times.

About two weeks ago, I had my first experience with the Nigeria Police Force and it was very unpleasant.🥲

So I had just returned to Lagos two weeks ago and I decided to rest and relax my brain from the long drive.

I arrived Lagos on Saturday evening and slept throughout the evening till next morning.

On Sunday morning, my wife came to meet me to find out if I will be going to church with her and I told her no that I will like to sleep more as I still feel weak from the stress I went through while I was away from home.

Afterwards, she had her bath and went to church with her sister who lives with us.

However, I was in bed from that moment till they came back from church.🤦‍♂️

When they returned from church, my sister in-law kept shouting my name while she ran to the room where I was sleeping.

Sister in-law: Olumide, Olumide, Olumide.

Me: I thought to myself, what could be the problem?.

So I stood up from bed to go and see if everything is ok with her because that’s unlike my sister in-law to shoutout someone’s name in that manner.

As I got up from bed she opened the door and said to me.

Sister in-law: Where did you keep your phones?.

Me: One is in the dining where I am charging it. I have no idea where I kept the second one. I was too tired yesterday when I got home.

My sister in-law: Everyone has been calling you but you’re not picking.

Me: Calling me, what happened?😳

My sister in-law: On our way from church we met plenty people gathered around your car where you parked they caught a thief removing your car side mirror.

Immediately I heard that, my eyes opened widely and sleep quickly disappeared. 🤦‍♂️😫

I took one of my phones I could lay hands on at the time and ran outside to see what has happened.

On getting outside, I met not less than thirty people outside gathered around the thief questioning him about his identity while some were busy calling OPC to come arrest him.

Immediately my neighbors saw me, they said to me “Mr olumide where did you keep your phone?”.

I quickly apologized to them for not answering my calls and explained to them that I was sleeping.

I asked my neighbors and passersby gathered around the thief what has happened and they explained to me.

From the explanation they gave me, the guy was spotted by another neighbor around 1pm in the afternoon unknown to the thief.

My neighbor who spotted the guy lives upstairs so she was able to see the guy clearly.

However, it took the guy more than 40 minutes before he could pulled the car mirror off because there is a woman that sells Akara at the entrance of my street so the son comes at intervals to keep their cooking items inside their small kiosk just directly opposite where I parked.

From what they told me, once the thief sighted the Akara woman’s son he will leave the scene and act like he’s just a regular person on the street and return back to the car until the Akara woman’s son finished parking their pots and other cooking items in the kiosk and he returned to the car fully to complete his mission.

For anyone that knows me personally and knows where I live, they know that my street is a close and it’s always quiet.

Immediately he pulled off the side mirror, he left then my neighbor who spotted him earlier came out of their room and asked someone to quickly help check the car to see if anything is missing or everything is intact.

The person my neighbor sent quickly checked and realized that the driver’s side mirror is missing.

My neighbor quickly rushed downstairs from their apartment and asked that they shot our street gate and call the guy he spotted earlier loitering around the car.

Fortunately for me and unfortunately for him, he was about stepping out of my street when my neighbor raised the alarm.

They asked him if he took anything and as expected he denied it.

My neighbor who caught him and others pleaded with him to say the truth and also promised to let him go if he speak the truth but this boy denied it until they searched him and saw the car mirror in his cloth.

As expected, people were angry because this isn’t the first time this would happen in my street and we’ve not been fortunate enough to catch any perpetrator.

Before I came out, those that were passing by and those that had been affected in the past gave him small beating and he was picked up by OPC members that were called by some neighbors earlier before I arrived the scene.

Immediately he was picked up by the OPC members, they took him to the nearest police station to handle him to police while I drove right behind them to make a statement.

When we got to the police station, I wrote my statement and I was referred to another police officer in another office.

When I got there, I was asked what I wanted and i told him that I want to prosecute the guy who stole my car mirror.

He then said to me that there are some payments I will have to make and I asked that he list them for me.

1. He told me that I will pay 15K to file my statement.

2. ⁠I will pay for his treatment because he was beaten and might have sustained internal injuries.

3. ⁠I will drop money for his feeding if they will keep him there before the time we take him to court.

4. ⁠Anything I want to give them too.

However, I have no issues catering for number two (2) which is his healthcare.

But having heard that I will make provision for his feeding made me feel discouraged and disappointed and left me with so many questions about Nigeria police force.

And one of many questions that has lingered in my head since then till date is that, “Is there no budget for police force to take care of suspects in their custody before their court airing?”.

Is there no provision made for the police force to take care of the healthcare of suspects/criminals in their custody?.

I bet there’s none. And if there’s, why am I asked to make provision for feeding and pay for the healthcare of someone who robbed me of my belongings?.

I am not an advocate of jungle justice. In fact, I preach against it because sometimes we can be wrong about “identity” and punish innocent people.

But now, I am beginning to understand why “some” people don’t like to involve police whenever their belongings are stolen or caught thief.

Imagine you being robbed of your belongings and you report to police authorities and you were asked to feed the criminal who robbed you.

They should have kukuma asked me to buy him shoes and clothes so that he will not purge 😫.
To me, it makes no sense and something needs to be done because not everyone will be patient enough to go through all the process I was asked to go through.

Plus it makes no sense that someone who just lost their property to thieves were asked to pay money before they could get justice. All in the name of provision for the suspect.

To me, I felt bad and deprived that day. It’s like robbing salt on my wound.

One of the passerby present that day put a call through to someone who sells motor spare parts at Ladipo market to find out the price of the mirror and he was told 250K.

Honestly, the Nigeria police needs to do better especially when Nigerians are fast loosing interest in their office.

If something isn’t done, people may result to self judgement which the outcome may not be good.

I urge the Nigeria police force to make their services stress free for the citizens rather than make them go through rigorous process especially when people summon courage to do the right thing by reporting to them than take laws into their hands.
