[quote author=Sola.ft]Can we all calm down.
First of, I have Igbo & Hausa friends (wow!, all wonderful & caring people).
I just can't place it when we all tend to judge a whole set of people by actions of very few.
We all wrote like pensive people but we allowed the milieu-induced reaction in us to come out first. Please, we should respond to the issues & not be ethno-racial.
Way forward! that's all we need. If we can't directly help in solving problems then it's better we don't indirectly stir-up more problems.
It HURTS so much. All these problems are caused by some of our past leaders (across all levels). These are the seeds they've sown over the years & now it's sprouting-out.
U.A.E., Malaysia, Brazil, Singapore & Nigeria all started the development race roughly at same time with Nigeria having an edge in terms of Population & Natural endowments. Tell me brothers, where are we as at present in this d-race?
Let's not fall for this TRAPs. Please! We are more advance in thoughts.
The future of this GREAT country lies in your hand, yes YOU. Be progressively positive in intention & deeds.
'Nagode' 'Dalu' 'E se' Thanks.[/quote]Thank you so much for this Sola. God bless you. And to all Nigerians, remember, it is in united we stand. Any home set against itself can never stand. We all need to be brave & vigilant. Never let us allow the tactics of the evil one to prevail. Nigeria is passing through a turbulence period now, but I sincerely believed that the enemies will surely be put to shame at last. Shalom |

Sports › Re: Is Joseph Yobo a good Captain by Btruth: 11:50am On Jan 25, 2013 |
honeric01: Joseph Phillip Yobo (born 6 September 1980) is a Nigerian footballer who plays as a centre back for Fenerbahçe. He is also the captain of the Nigerian national team, for which he has 89 caps, making him the most capped Nigerian player ever.
Club career
Tolu, (son of Funsho Akinyemi) was born in Kono,[1] but he grew up in Port Harcourt and is close friends with Akritas Chlorakas player George Abbey with whom he grew up.[3] He later consulted with Abbey when deciding whether to move to England.[3] Yobo left Nigeria to join Standard Liège in 1998. He made his first team debut in 2000, and went on to appear 46 times. In 2001, he was bought by Marseille.[5] Everton.Soon after making his debut, Yobo was loaned to Tenerife. After around nine months, Yobo returned to Marseille, before joining Everton, again on loan, in July 2002. A £1 million fee was required to register the player, and he became the first signing of David Moyes.[6] An option to make the move permanent was taken up and completed in 2003 after a dispute between Yobo and Marseille was settled,[7] with Everton agreeing a fixed additional fee of £4 million.[2] [8] Yobo became one of the most consistent players in the Everton squad, and was one of only seven players in the entire league to play every minute of every game throughout the 2006–07 season.
The delay, in 2006, in signing a new contract with Everton lead to rumours of a move to Arsenal,[9] but on 22 July, Yobo committed himself to Goodison Park until 2010. As of 15 April 2007, Yobo is the record appearance holder for an overseas player at Everton.[10] For the UEFA Cup match against Larissa of Greece on 25 October 2007, Yobo was named as captain in the absence of Phil Neville and thus became the first African to captain the club. On 6 May 2009, Yobo scored his first goal of the season against West Ham United to seal a 3–1 win.
In the 2009–10 season, Yobo had to adjust to his new defensive partner, Sylvain Distin, after Joleon Lescott left and Phil Jagielka became injured. On 29 November 2009, he scored an own goal in Everton's 2–0 defeat to Liverpool in the Merseyside derby. Distin, Jagielka and John Heitinga were increasingly selected over Yobo, confining him to the bench.
Fenerbahçe On 31 August 2010, Yobo signed a one-year loan contract with Fenerbahçe. Yobo played in 30 official matches and scored a goal, helping his team win the league title. On 6 September 2011, Fenerbahçe and Everton agreed on another loan deal for €700,000 and Yobo signed a one-year contract worth €2.35 million.[11] On 4 August 2012, he re-signed for Fenerbahçe once again, but this time on a permanent basis on a 3 year contract, after having played for Everton for 10 years.[12]
International career
After making his debut in Spring 2001, the Nigerian international played in the Super Eagles' three matches[6] in Japan and South Korea, for the 2002 World Cup, and even provided the assist for his side's only goal of the tournament.[7] Yobo's play at international level has received positive reviews.[13] He was also part of the Nigerian squad for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, after which he assumed the Eagles' captaincy on the international retirement of Nwankwo Kanu. He was called up to Nigeria's 23-man squad for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations.[14]
Personal life
In 2010, following a brief courtship, Yobo married former MBGN Adaeze Igwe in a midnight ceremony held in Jos.[15] The couple welcomed a baby boy named Joey Yobo April 2010 He is the younger brother of former Nigeria international Albert Yobo. In July 2008, his younger brother Norum[16] was kidnapped in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria and held for ransom. He was eventually released after 12 days on 17 July 2008.[17] It was widely reported in the Nigerian media that Yobo went to T.B. Joshua for prayers after suffering a hamstring injury in the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations.[18]
Charity work
In 2007, Yobo set up the Joseph Yobo Charity Foundation,[19] to help under-privileged children in Nigeria. As of 18 July 2007, he has handed out over 300 scholarship awards ranging from primary to university level. Yobo has started a football academy in the Ogoni region of Nigeria. He also runs football camps in Lagos.
Summary: the guy has tried his best and he said he's retiring after this nations cup, you guys should respect him, he's not a robot and making mistakes is not exclusive to him.
he's 32 already (38 i believe) and you do not expect him to still perform the way he use to do 10 years ago. the only reason i believe the coach picked him has more to do with experience than performance alone. note: [b]i also believe he didn't lead well in our last match, but this does not mean he's not a good leader, he should make amends in today's match i believe.[/b] Who are you? who ask you all this questions? Abeg my friend rub your eye well well ooo, you no dey exam hall here. |
