Money obviously exchanged hands

The guy learnt fast in custody and did it the Naija way. grin
If Money exchanged hands, then it means the guy paid those watching over them in the guest house, paid travel agent to book a flight outside the country for him, paid immigration officers who cleared him to fly and even paid whoever drove him from the guest house to the airport.

Another thing people should know is, there is no way these guys do any indept research before dropping that many odds with the frequency with which they drop it.

I know how long it used to take me before I put 10 odds together when I was deep in it.

This leads me to believe they either copy someone else's bet code and share without any research of their own or they just put anything they like together most of the time.
It's actually possible for them to sit down and do forecasting. It's because u are a working class person who has to juggle his time between multiple tasks in a day that makes u think it takes so much time to forecast. If u were less busy as they are , u can as well be researching and dropping codes.

They don't have a 9-5 job like u na.

I have won with his game before. But it was a low stake
But u have also lost with his game several times too ba?

U see ehn, people like Mayor make more people poorer than richer. While u may be staking lower on his 35-50 odds, some people will reduce the 9 games he accumulated to let's say just 4 games that will give them 15 odds. People like that will place N100k and they will lose.

Several people think like that and they lose woefully. Those are the people u see always on his case dragging him when he's on a losing streak cos from where they stand it appears he was contracted by the bookies to drag them into penury. When eventually he wins a game after a long time, most of those people would not even have funds to stake.

I don't know for sure if he works in cahoots with bookies o, but I think anybody that wants to do something good with his life should rely on games from people like Mayor who have deep pockets and can play the long game of waiting for one win to wipe away one-month losses. I won't be surprised if the bookies always fund his accounts through bonuses just for him to keep posting games and thousands of people losing the bets.

Tottenham built from scratch.
They just didn't move ground but they demolished the old one completely and built an exquisite new one

And Tottenham were better in terms of spending and holding players than arsenal. They don't just have a great coach all those while.

Mourinho and Conte are extravagant coaches that even if you give them the world this season, they won't be contented and still demand for another world next season while still playing boring football. It's one big reason I disagreed with Roland then when he said
why are we watching Conte (a better coach) going to Spurs while we're still stuck with Arteta.

Check na, dem still deh buy players and they're still holding their star players. Kane played his better life there, moved at 30 and still commanded 100m, while we sold Nari, fab etc at their peak for peanuts.
If na us get Son and Eriksen, we for don sell dem tey tey during their prime

It's through Tottenham and I think Athletico I knew this stadium ish that held us for almost 10yrs na farce. Especially Tottenham cos they're not richer than us, they have a stingy owner yet they didn't sell their star players and still bought correct ones (while still holding to their star players).
This!

Athletico didn't spend almost a decade in the wilderness cos they built a stadium, same with Tottenham. In fact, Tottenham rarely relies on their academy products; they kept on signing more and more players every season while keeping their already established stars.

The fact that Tottenham didn't fall off from their regular top 6 position over time just no want make me forgive Wenger and the board for taking us on a ride for too long.

That man should be behind bars in a sane country, he has made it look to obvious with his open support for this terrorist. Imagine Gumi telling US or any Western Govt to negotiate with Terrorist or pay ransom for kidnapped victims, no be Guantanamo bay dey go don ship him off to since. Encouraging ransome payment alone is enough evidence he is part of them and taking his share from the ransome payments.
That's why I call him a terrorist sympathizer. We only need the government to take the bold step of arresting and prosecuting him for glamorizing terrorism.

The fact that he's even a retired military captain makes him extremely dangerous to national security. What is the assurance that he's not even the one mapping out strategy for these bandits and terrorists? His knowledge of the military mode of operations makes him a very dangerous asset to those terrorists he hobnobs with.

Like u rightly said, in a serious country he should be facing tens of counts charges of terrorism by now

NFIU didn't confirm anything as published by Punch.
They even deny it here.

Contacted yesterday to give more insight on the development, the Head of Public Affairs, NFIU, Abubakar Abba Ibrahim, said the organisation did not issue any statement.

Another senior official in the agency, Sani Tukur, said on the media WhatsApp platform of the agency, “There was no statement from our office sir. I have asked around and no one seems to know how they got it. I believe it is being investigated.”


You can read the full story here. https://dailytrust.com/controversy-trails-leaked-list-of-terrorists-financiers/
What u posted didn't disprove my post in bold u quoted.

NFIU knows who terrorism financiers are . Someone from NFIU emailed Punch newspapers with the name of the terrorism financiers as confirmed by the link u shared

It said details of the development were revealed by the NFIU, in an email sent on Tuesday night, entitled “Designation of Individuals and Entities for March 18, 2024.”

It indicated that the document revealed that the Nigeria Sanctions Committee met on March 18, 2024, where specific individuals and entities were recommended for sanction following their involvement in terrorism financing.


“The Honourable Attorney General of the Federation, with the approval of the President, has thereupon designated the following individuals and entities to be listed on the Nigeria Sanctions List,” the document read in part.
It's only normal for the spokesperson to deny the report since he didn't send the originating email. If the report was false, NFIU would've sued punch newspapers who claimed they got the report from NFIU.

U are giving me a vibe that portrays u are a Gumi Sympathizer, Gumi himself being a terrorist sympathizer. I don't see any sense in what Gumi has been doing thus far. U cannot be claiming u want the best for the country and seeing any good in what Gumi has been doing thus far

Why are we shying away from saying the truth about this man? He should have been arrested long ago by Buhari govt..

All those ones is just politics. If they are serious they should give us real names with pictures. Apart from Mamu, that list doesn't add up. https://www.nairaland.com/8037250/controversy-trails-leaked-list-terrorists#129034354

Lemme give you example. Security outfits are not that present in most rural areas here and I believe in other Southern parts too.

A wealthy man receives a letter, notification. We will kill you and your family if you don't give us X amount of money. He just have to give because his security is not guarantee. This is just one way where they fund themselves. They also kidnap for ransom.
I'm not disputing the that terrorists compel local traders, farmers and well-to-do people to send them funds. But I'm also telling u that NFIU tracks origin of funds traced to suspected terrorists.

Some of those terrorists arrested or those killed in battle, the phones recovered from them are looked into and government is able to investigate the origin of some.of those funds.

If FG is coming out to name some of those people as terrorism sponsors, it's because they have carried out preliminary investigation on those people and they have found them to be culpable.

Gumi cannot just sit In Kaduna and be claiming FG is wrong except he's working for the terrorists and running PR for them.

They thought he had link with the ACTIVITIES of Abdulmutallab. He was put in prison for six months in Saudi Arabia and upon completion of investigation he was found innocent. He was compensated heavily financially by the Saudi government. This is what gave Gumi much money.


On the part where he says those terrorists/bandits are funding themselves, I agree with him on that. Is a no brainer. Those guys can easily fund themselves.

On the part where he says government should negotiate with terrorists/kidnappers/bandits. I strongly disagree. That one no be talk. They should be killed on the spot. Gumi is a very controversial person and I don't really like him.
This is not about what u think or believe. I hope u know it's easy to trace the origin of any funds in one's account. Funds transfer always leave a trail no matter how long it is; u will be able to know where the funds originally came from.

If NFIU is saying those terrorists gets funded bg certain persons and organization ; it's definitely because they traced funds from those organizations/persons to the terrorists under any guise. NFIU is Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit and they so much about funds transfer within the Nigerian financial system. Gumi is just a terrorist sympathiser saying things from his prejudiced position; NFIU is not.

He rejected psg and Madrid deals because they will sack him if he didn't deliver

Doing the board bidding you say, same board came back to give him 200m for transfer he rejected it
He was obviously okay with top 4, 5 and 6
Teams Blatter us like thief home and away
If the top teams catch us like this I don't even bother watching those matches then
That's why I don't blame those who left arsenal to support other clubs ; Wenger really do us strong thing post-2006.

The funny thing is ; it's not only big teams that show us shege, teams struggling with relegation also out-muscle us with physical players against our youngins.

I'm glad the same board he was doing their bidding eventually let him go when he was no longer useful to them.

Roland17:
We have to be careful with how we compare and talk about that era. There is absolutely no way a coach like Wenger who had won numerous league titles including being invincible, FA Cups and a trip to the UEFA suddenly became content making top 4. You think selling his best players gave him any joy? Some of these things are tough.

I challenge anyone to mention a top class coach during that era that Wenger competed against or even now who would have come close to achieving top 4 considering our reality at the time. If anything, top teams like Madrid and even City openly recruited him. When the position became vacant, did you wonder why no top coach wanted to touch it?

Furthermore, Arteta is benefiting from the sacrifices made by Wenger during those difficult years. Keeping the club alive by qualifying for the UCL, getting bargains and selling his best players kept the club afloat financially. Arteta got a taste of something similar in his first 2 years when he had no funds. We flirted with relegation before finishing 8th in consecutive seasons. We just couldn’t compete with other teams financially.

If Arsenal finds itself in a similar situation today, I can assure you that we will lose Saka/ Saliba/ Odegaard / Rice and Arteta will jump ship ASAP! We will have to rely on our academy and bargains to even stay alive in the EPL.
U know the issue with cutting Wenger some slack about that era is? PERCEPTION.

Some fans including myself feel/believe that while wenger gives as impression that his hands are tied considering the financial situation; it appears as though he enjoyed being contented with the top 4 challenge every year.

We may be wrong in our perception about him, but he gives air of someone who was contented with youngings every year knowing fully well his job was secured since he was making hell of money for the management while doing their bidding. Like I do try to put myself in his shoes and many times I come to the conclusion that I wouldve walked away from the club before things got to the level it got to before he left.

Arsene Wenger was a very good manager and he would've gotten juicy contracts elsewhere if he wanted to on the premise that the club is making him into a selling coach rather than a coach challenging for major trophies. Since that 2006 finals everything went downhill and he just stay put; it can never be me.

I'm sure if Wenger had left, the club signs another manager who fails while trying not to spend money ; the board's hand would've been forced to spend and we would've gone past this stage long ago. See how long loserpool spent in the wilderness, they just kept at it till their management got it right with klopp.

I think Wenger staying to do the board's bidding was one of our major problems of that era. Omo! It was embarrassing he lost his 1000th game in charge to Chelsea 6-0. That was the height of it for me

I can’t say this enough…

Men, take care of your health. How you care for your body today would be consequential in the future.

Every year, especially after 35, your body starts slowing down in every aspect and it gets harder to resolve certain health complications.

RIP sir!

This point can never be overemphasized. Men should really take care of themselves and we shouldn't always resort to self medication until it is too late.

When I advise people around me that it's always wise to seek opinion of doctors on any health challenge u experience, they always feel as though I'm taking from a privileged point of view cos as a private sector person I have access to company funded health insurance.

U will see a people having constant headache & insomnia swallowing panadol instead of going for a check-up to rule out High blood pressure.

As much as men make money and spend on enjoyment, they should keep some for period medical checkups too.

In all these, how do women live with these secrets in the years with her husband, anf even to death if not caught?
Most times they also didn't know the child is not the husband's...

See ehn, the same way a guy who is married or in a relationship has sex with another woman not his wife or fiance, is the same way some women cheat too with other guys. It's a possibility that if u have a one-night stand with a woman it may result to preganacy but u don't know cos u blocked her on all social media and phone after the sexx.

That same way some ladies cheat and within a matter of days have sexx with their spouse. So far the spouse never suspected or caught her cheating the resulting pregnancy will be a thing of joy.

Cheating can go either ways. E just be say na man e dey pain pass when the consequence later fall out.

I get its mainly poverty that contributes to lack of DNA tests in Nigeria, but when you compare it to the amount yoid spend training another man's kids, you'd rethink yoir thoughts
It's not really poverty per se. It's strange that u will just wake up one moring and request for DNA for a child u were in the labour room when he/she was delivered and Ur wife never gave u reason to doubt her Fidelity.

Most of the the people who go for DNA do so either because they caught their wife cheating, they smell a fish, they needed to travel out on family visa or the child suffers a rare disease that neither in the father or the mother's family ( Like the guy that trended last week who was AA, wife AS and son SS)

It is the advent of technology and social media that makes cheating spouses easy to find out now. U can see a strange text, whatsapp number, strange phone call etc and u can start snooping around from there.

During our parent's time, a woman can tell the husband she's going to spend a week at her parent's village only for her to spend 5 days in a man's house and just 2 days in her parents house. There's no how the husband will find out... If the sexx she has at the man's place turn out to be a pregnancy there's no way the husband will suspect the baby is not his since they are married and they get intimate regularly.

So far the wife didn't inform the other man about the pregnancy, he won't even know and her husband who didn't catch her cheating will assume he's the father.
