We will give this election to PDP instead of Labourers Party to win it. My enemy's enemy is my friend. We will continue to teach you Politics

Useless you

OKOATA:
It's normal for humans to seek upgrade in life so there should be no regrets. My advice to you is to start praying fervently so that God can touch his heart and stop bringing ur marital stuff to the internet cos if ur husband finds out he might vex more.

Wisdom will never depart from you.

Remembering Samuel Okwaraji: Why Super Eagles must secure victory over Angola in honour of his heroic sacrifice on the pitch

On the fateful day of August 12, 1989, Nigerian football experienced a tragedy that left an indelible mark on the sport's history. A talented and dedicated midfielder Samuel Okwaraji collapsed on the pitch during a crucial World Cup qualifying match against Angola.

This article aims to delve into the circumstances surrounding Okwaraji's untimely demise and emphasize why the Super Eagles must honour his memory by securing victory over Angola on Friday.

The tragic incident that lead to Okwaraji's dismiss

Samuel Okwaraji, born on May 19, 1964, was more than just a football player; he was a symbol of passion and commitment to the beautiful game. As the Super Eagles faced Angola in the 1990 World Cup qualifying match, Okwaraji, who had been an integral part of the team, gave his all on the field. However, tragedy struck in the 77th minute when he suddenly collapsed due to congestive heart failure.

Despite immediate efforts to revive him, Okwaraji tragically lost his life on the pitch. The shocking incident sent shockwaves through the football community, highlighting the physical toll and challenges faced by athletes in the pursuit of excellence.

Honoring Okwaraji's legacy

In the aftermath of Okwaraji's death, the football community mourned the loss of a talented player and a true patriot. His dedication to the game and his country inspired many, making it imperative for future generations to remember his sacrifice.

As the Super Eagles takes on Angola in the quarterfinal of the Africa Cup of Nations on Friday, February 2, they carry the responsibility of upholding Okwaraji's legacy, and beyond the pursuit of victory, the team must play with the spirit and determination that he embodied. This serves as a tribute to a fallen hero who gave his all for the love of the game.

Why the Super Eagles must defeat Angola?

Defeating Angola on the football field becomes more than just a quest for points; it transforms into a symbolic act of respect and remembrance for Samuel Okwaraji. The Super Eagles must approach this encounter with a sense of purpose, understanding that the match against Angola is an opportunity to honour a man who made the ultimate sacrifice for the sport.

Additionally, securing victory over Angola becomes a testament to the resilience of Nigerian football. It demonstrates that despite the tragic loss of one of their own, the Super Eagles remain a force to be reckoned with – a team that channels adversity into strength and determination.

Samuel Okwaraji's legacy goes beyond his achievements on the football field. His tragic death serves as a reminder of the physical and emotional toll that athletes endure in their pursuit of excellence.

As the Super Eagles take on Angola on Friday they must let the encounter be a tribute to Okwaraji's memory – a celebration of his passion, dedication, and the indomitable spirit that defines Nigerian football. May his sacrifice never be forgotten, and may the Super Eagles continue to soar in his honor.

Fubara should destroy wike. You people forget so soon that, this same wike fought ameachi when he was governor and wike then was minster for state Edu, not even FCT.

COMPAQ:
Funny enough,this is where FG could help people. How about if the Ministry of Technology commissioned some tech guys to develop a Nigerian version of Uber that is owned by the government for which drivers pay 5%. The technology is already available. This is how the FG could help Nigerian youth. Besides it helps keep the money in country. Why would Uber take 35%of our local money for what?

Bro you think we'll and that's the best thing to do but let me tell you..

Remember these companies pays tax(heavily) to the government and there are people in the same ministry making it big with the tax money of these companies hence they'll readily sabotage every move pointing at your advise.

That's the country we live in.

rinzaugustine:
Israel is treating it as terrorism so no room for negotiation . The last onslaught Israel killed more than two thousand of the for killing only 6 Israelis so this time around your guess is good as mine

My guess is the whole Hamas will be wipe off

Useless terrorist.

manutdrichie:
The Chairperson of the Commission of the AU, Moussa Faki Mahamat, who said this in a communique he issued on Saturday.
