But Mane didn't touch the ball

Mane didn't touch Mbappe too, na Mbappe know wetin make am fall like that. The video replay clearly showed Mane's challenge was not what made him fall like a mango tree

No penalty is the correct decision. Mbappe the scuba diver 😏

Maybe na another Nigeria dem dey talk about.

The ones wey we watch recently?

Don't mind dem. Make dem dey use patriotism spirit dey whine us

Unlimited22:
No worry
This matter can’t be decided in the abstract

Na NFF and Finidi I blame

This one no be abstract matter. We've seen Nigeria and Senegalese teams play against different qualities of opponents and we see Senegal to be head and heels above super eagles abeg!

iamoyindamola:
I am not talking about balling
It's about putting ball in the net, in the end we don't care if Senegal is playing France or not
It's all about 3 points

How Nigeria Wan take put ball inside the net? Na from defense we go score play goalkick enter their post?

The way Una go just sit down dey overrate our disjointed team while ignoring the superior team work play of teams like Senegal ehn.....

Just look at the way the Senegalese are moving the ball from attack to defense and still having attempts on goal like they are Frances mate in international football. Our national team can't do that make we no lie abeg

iamoyindamola:
We can actually turn up
Might have taken one of the chances Senegal are missing

Lies!

Super Eagles can never ball France the way Senegal is doing presently. Lai lai!

Are you the same person that said Boko Haram started because of Kanuri megedefegede?

Blame everything, including the polymer raw material that was used to make the Jerry can, except themselves...

Don't mind them. They indulged the terrorists for long till they grow beyond their control, now they are making brainless decisions that can't yield any positive result.

When they ought to have nipped the whole banditry thing in the bud, they were busy going to meetings with them, handing them money as monetary compensation and making excuse for the terrorists by claiming they are some sort of freedom fighters/marginalized members of the society.

The past immediate governor of Katsina state was actively negotiating with bandits. Even when they kidnapped students from Katsina schools under Buhari's government, all they did was pay them ransom for release of the students which the bandits most likely used to buy more weapons.

Anyone who saw how Buhari go really hard on ESN and IPOB in the east would think he will use such powers to crush the terrorists in his own backyard which they were busy caressing and playing on semantics by calling them bandits. Today we see Katsina government retrieving the dead body of an Army general from those terrorists without showing us those terrorists have been sent to hell.

All those agenda to eradicate state of origin and indigeneship always come with agenda. And shouldn't be practiced in a multi ethnic society like Nigeria where suspicion of others have been for centuries.

The same people where you cannot drink beer in his own state and will say respect my state, has relocated to another mans not respecting his own land but want to claim it as well

The way the judge applied the constitution made it seem like there might be an agenda behind the judgement. We all know every Nigerian is entitled to live in any part of the country they desire and they have a legal right to stay for as long as possible. Yet that doesn't automatically turn them to indigene .

The judge is making it seem like the plaintiff was denied right to be a resident because of ethnicity (which is not the case). It just looked like the judge deliberately twist the whole plot to arrive at a an already pre-determined conclusion that is logically incorrect.

I hope the appeal court will overturn the high court's judgement because very soon we will see people taking advantage of the bad precedent to place some real indigenes at disadvantageous position.

For example, imagine oil companies who give scholarship and job slot to indigenes of host communities. It means me as Yoruba guy who is resident in such host community can claim to be indigene thereby robbing the real indigenes of job slot that should've originally gone to them. Will members of such host community fold their arms and watch me take their potential job slot? The whole thing is a recipe for chaos waiting to happen except the NJC step in and right the wrong of this judgement.

In a bid to curb insecurity, Katsina state Government has banned the use of Jerry cans to purchase fuel, and has shutdown POS businesses too.

The same Katsina government wey dey actively negotiate with terrorists? 🤦‍♂️

raumdeuter:
I was just coming to post this and this is a dangerous judgment cos that is what it means legally but in reality we know its only certain places that are targets, I dont know hw many Jos people are going to Kano to claim indigene. This judgment set in motion a bad precedent that can lead to crisis

BTW on that thread I saw this post and made me remember A0001

https://www.nairaland.com/8691552/outrage-jos-court-declares-hausa-fulani#139734651

Exactly! The implications of the judgement will be far reaching ; it's a very dangerous precedent the judge will be setting and it should not be allowed to stand at all.

https://www.nairaland.com/8691552/outrage-jos-court-declares-hausa-fulani

The judgment, delivered on June 9, 2026, by Justice C. Donglong, held that Fatima Baba Akawu, a Hausa woman born in Jos North cannot be denied a Certificate of Indigene.

The court further declared the practice of issuing "Residential Certificates" instead of Certificates of Indigene to certain citizens unconstitutional, unlawful, discriminatory, and unknown to Nigerian law.

The suit was instituted by Fatima Baba Akawu and her father, Baba Alhaji Akawu, against Jos North Local Government Area after the council allegedly refused to issue her an indigene certificate.

They argued that denying Fatima indigene status because she is Hausa violated the Constitution's provisions against discrimination and challenged the legality of the Residential Certificate, insisting it has no basis in Nigerian law.

The court agreed, holding that constitutional rights cannot be denied because of ethnic identity where a citizen is otherwise entitled to recognition under the law.

This judgement is confusing. Does this mean Hausa settlers in Agege and Okokomaiko who have resided in those areas in Lagos long enough are entitled to Indigene certificate from Agege and Ojo LGA respectively?

I hope the religious tension brewing won't escalate sooner or later

izzou:
You did not bother to read the judgement, and you're arguing on it?

Na wa!

The judgement has absolutely nothing to do with leadership.

You just have to read first, before you argue, or at least use Google

Na real Wa!

iamoyindamola:
The issue is Rogers wont come in as a winger(he'sa perfect fit for box to box either rice or odegaard), if we are getting the Greek guy we must/should sell martinelli first and if trossard is leaving too we can get another winger.
With what I saw from barcola at the final, we shouldn't go near him abeg

I've never been a fan of Barcola , so I don't even understand where our interest in him is coming from. The guy's decision making when it comes to final ball has always been suspect to me, so I don't really buy into the hype around him.

I want Trossard to leave so we can have fresh younger legs in the team that can grow with the team .

iamoyindamola:
We need to get our attacking transfers right this season especially with the way our opposition potential transfers are going in the WC
That diomonde wan kpai hincapie which is why I am not so sold with this Greek guy.
Yildiz and Rogers should be the priority
Forest are planning 25m for viera while martinelli and odegaard are attracting interest in Spain and Italy respectively
Sell them abeg, I trust berta

I doubt they would sell Odegaard even though I want him to go so we can bring in a more Solid AM who is very direct and can track ball back when we don't have the ball.

I watched clips of Tzolis and I see a direct winger similar to Trossard who can guarantee us goals. I won't mind having the Tzolis guy and Rogers joining us this transfer window. I'm not a fan of Yildiz or any other export from the Italian league abeg.

lawani:
The main difference is that AAC members do not have any dispute in any court over party leadership

As it is said 'Lizards can only hide in walls that are already cracked'.

Did u read the judgement as reported in the news at all ? Where in the judgement did it state that the judge's pronouncement was based on "dispute over party leadership"?

I don't seem to get the correlation between your post and the one you responded to.

iamoyindamola:
That's where I am going, what's good for the goose should be good for the gander not in this country.
These people are just plotting how the country will eventually burn

Their supporters are not seeing things that way; they think it's a game of fun which they are winning without giving a damn about consequences.

It was the position of the plaintiff that the five political parties listed as defendants in the matter had persistently failed to meet the constitutional benchmarks required to retain their registration.

The former legislators stressed that the requirements include winning at least 25 per cent of votes in a state during a presidential election or securing at least one elective seat at the national, state, or local government level.

They told the court that the ADC and the four other parties performed poorly in both the 2023 general elections and by-elections conducted by INEC, thereby failing to win seats across key tiers of government.

The bold is criteria the judge used in pronouncing that ADC, APP, ZLP, Accord and AA be deregistered by INEC. Somehow we expected to believe Sowore's AAC and other mushroom parties who will be on the ballot in 2027 met the criteria but the aforementioned parties didn't

This country is a joke sha. Our judiciary is a mess ; the same Judiciary that allowed Akpabio and Lawan to contest and win their senatorial bids despite having lost their tickets in 2023 after contesting for presidency in contravention of the electoral act.

Dele Farotimi knew what he was doing when he titled his book Nigeria and Its Criminal Justice System; Our justice system is criminal in all intent and purpose!

iamoyindamola:
I see no reason why any party should be deregister sef

Let's even assume there's a law that says parties who don't meet some criteria should be deregistered. What are the criteria AAC fulfil that parties like ADC, Accord and ZLP has not fulfilled?

izzou:
True sha

If you say ADC and the likes should be deregistered because they didn't win any seat in the last election, how come AAC was excluded?

This country, the more you look the less you see.

izzou:
It's possible that an Appeal court might overturn the judgement. Very possible.

.

But how's it that ADC, ZLP and Accord party are getting deregistered and Sowore's AAC continues to remain a political party?

What criteria was used to deregister those parties that spared Sowore's AAC ?

This country, if dem explain am give u and u understand it; means the person no explain well.

PS: Not like I'm a fan of ADC, ZLP or Accord party, but we need to really understand the yardstick used to deregister these aforementioned parties while Sowore and his AAC keep existing.

Elephant man scores his first touch 😲

iamoyindamola:
This is arteta blueprint no doubt

They can't shoot at all

At all! Their shooting is very very poor.

If they had a player like Xhaka or Szobozlai in their team, dem for Don punish Spain since

BlueMann:
Unfortunately some of these Cape Verde attackers are brainless.

Honestly! They lack accurate shot takers and can't just seem to make the right decisions when on the offensive.

If Cape Verde had a very good player with powerful shot like Xhaka, dem for Don wrap up this game since

iamoyindamola:
Still 0-0

To think some people would've bet on Spain to win even with 2 goals ahead

izzou:
Unless a miracle happens in 2nd half, goal must enter

Make dem find one soft Baddie give that GK for half time break. The guy don suffer

No b3 lie! He has done well to keep them in the game till half time

izzou:
This pressure no too much like this?



Dem try sha.

I don't even understand why they belive they can play their way out from the back when they have Spain attackers and Midfielders laying siege on their defense 🤷‍♂️

Just look at how this mumu guy killed off a very good attacking move by dribbling himself into pack of bodies 🤦‍♂️

izzou:
Red card sure for Cape Verde nau.

They should be loading the ball inside, instead of all these passes up and down.

Na wahala dem dey find

They will soon learn the hard way if they don't change tactics

iamoyindamola:
He's the potential target now

Their coach should take him out at half time if he wants the match to end with a respectable scoreline
