Jodera.

I still see some unfair criticism here and there. Some of you clamored that he be benched for Trossard at some point last season even when he was still scoring goals.

Leyqute:
Lol. I know you’re being sarcastic sha. Or taunting your fellow fans for complaining incessantly about Martinelli.

After Oodegard maybe he’s probably the next guy with the strongest mentality in that side. He’s obsessed with scoring and winning.

Nezzjnr:
What's this

kokaneprodigy:
My version looks different

I think mine looks more like it

SAKA can’t be LM

I agree that some of our culture do not translate 1 for 1 with Western ideals amd there might have been some progress if we figured what works best for us

Democracy has many flaws but it's still IMO the best system. In the old African setting (Many ancient European kingdom had this setup until uptisings came) you have the rulers and the ruled, the worker and the bourgeoisie which is determined by your birth and in most cases you cannot move from one class to the other. It's a birthright of the ruling class to pillage the ruled for anything they need. David needs a wife, he snatches one from Uriah to add to his plenty harem. After eating full, I stroll pass your house and smell burnt yam you are managing and still obtain it and you dare not complain except you are lucky enough to have a pretty daughter or sister you can offer to one of the ruling class and he compensates you

To those ruled then things were terrible for them just like you have in some part of the North till date

At least with this our wack democracy you probably know one common guy on the street who was nothing and has risen into power. I know a few guys like that in this current administration Federal or state level

Me no see sarcasm in such comments

Democracy is whatever your constitution says and you follow it

It's mainly USA that does 8yrs max. Others do not
Germany na part of West yet Merkel stayed for over 15yrs. England uses a parliamentary system and its still Democracy

The worst form of Democracy is still better than military rule. At least in Democracy you can say the president violated a law, in military the whims of the president is the law. Just like Buhari came made a decree and criminalized what you have done in the past. E.g what you did last week and was legal someone came today made a law and arrested you because what you did last week that was legal then is no longer legal

The Western interference in "democracies" like Libya is what many still condemn to till today

Now you see why they are more successful than their male counterparts

Itsrm:
I don't even know where to start from

In other words, Buhari the saint was surrounded by thieves, he enabled and encouraged stealing but just never participated in it. I'm sure even Buhari will be shocked reading the bolded

Havertz10:
Western indoctrination. the idea is to make everything complicated and manipulatable.

If a leader exhibits greatness and provides a better life for his people, I don’t have any problem with him extending his tenure


Who wrote the rule that it must be 8 years, we created those rules besides not everyone can be great at leadership, in most cases the dynamics at play would work much better with conceptual stability.

Even the US had to amend their constitution after FDR died cos only death prevented FDR from winning 5 or more terms, as great as he was as a President they were uncomfortable with any semblance of life presidency. Power of incumbency is real and term limits are there to prevent people spinning executive power into dictatorial/monarchical power, whether they be good or bad leaders (which is highly subjective anyway).

As Fela said, what we practice in Africa is Demonstration of Craze rather than Democracy. Gbagbo that fought Boigny for decades for being undemocratic had to be forced out because he disobeyed democratic principles. Ouattara who Gbagbo was kicked out for is now repeating the same mistakes. I don’t know if it’s messianic complex or just plain greed that is worrying our leaders in Africa.

But Putin and Russia that is the alternative is also devising ways of making him stay forever. Now he has the right to rule till 2030 something

Patino have gone to Swansea for a season loan
Arteta still believe he have a future with arsenal

Holding and tierney have been left out the the squad against forest

Why are we not looking for buyer for holding, I also think we should sell tierney

afrodoc2:
The guy doesn’t understand the meaning of rule of law. If someone tries the same thing in Nigeria he will be crying about democracy.

Rule of law is not only for the now but for posterity. If a good president can manipulate the constitution to essentially become a life president nothing stops a bad president from doing the same.

Ivory Coast actually needs a law banning all Boigny era politicians from running for office. Those guys have been tearing the country apart since the grand old man died.
