You are not getting the point at all. That ain't the issue.

I'm totally getting the point. the NNPC executives seen to be doing OK as far as I'm concerned. why must we always use federal character? if we want federal character then no region should have more than 3players in eagles starting 11.

let us embrace merit and forget federal character

Jolar101:
If that's true, did they performed or not?

are the NNPC executives not performing or not?

Mcowubaba:
William Ekong is from Akwa Ibom not Cross River
Cross River/Calabar is different from Akwa Ibom/Uyo, 80% of Nigerians don't know this

Abdullahi Shehu no 2, is an Hausa man. He played full-time.
Elderson Echeijele no 3 is not from South East.
Odion Ighalo no 9, is not from South East
Simon Ajala Moses, who played 7/8 is a Yoruba man.
Ogenyi Onazi is not from South East

The Igbo players on the squad that played were only Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Iheanacho, Mikel Obi, Mikel Agu, Ndidi, Chidozie Awaziem

And only 4 of them started the Match
Get your facts right

saying ekong is from crs is a mistake. and I know the difference. stayed in calabar for two years and I visited uyo and nung udoe in ibesikpo from time to time


my logic is simple. federal character can't always be used.

gerg:
There were about 6 Igbos. two of the people labeled as Igbo are actually not Igbo. E.g. Ichigile is an Esan from Ekpon in Edo State. And you sound very foolish to compare a football team with a NNPC with a football team. If you don't see any problem with all Buhari's appointments of Ineptitude and below mediocrity, you have a big problem

you are the foolish one. you don't want federal character to be used in selecting eagles but you want federal character whenever it doesn't favour you. you are the one with the big problem. which is more important for merit? super eagles or nnpc that generates revenue?

[quote author=FearGodinall post=60085547][/quote]keep making a fool of yourself. my write up is just trying to tell you that federal character can not be applied everywhere. guess you are not smart enough to 7understand

cr7lomo:
Everything u typed up there is absolutely rubbish and shows how myopic ur reasoning is...
1. The coach is not Nigerian...he is a white man
2. Name 5 super eagles recognized stars in Europe that are not from the south south, south east
3. Talking about appointments, are u saying that only the north are more qualified than the south( the north that are mostly uneducated)

Guy , if u dont hv any reasonable thing to say...abeg close mouth

we don't care. it's either federal character or merit. we can't combine both. I feel marginalised too. I'm a Yoruba man and my cousin should be allowed to play fr eagles. lol

Mereze2244:
The guy did not want any seat in Nigeria even the one he is fighting for, all he want his own people freedom, get that into ur head

liar!!! he didn't want the seat yet he campaigned and contested

myright:
thunder fire you Afonja

as usual. ipork yoots usually lack the intellectual capacity to counter arguments. all they do is shout afonja with a phrase of insults

actually he lost woefully he contested for president after and he didn't win a single LG

SHTFguy:
The Yorubas only call for restructuring when they are out in the cold.

They know that both the SS and SE will support them fully on this and they use this as a leverage when negotiating with the north.

Why did Yorubas not call for restructuring when GEJ was President and crude was trading high?

It is on record that all SW states are heavily indebted and that they incurred the huge debt burden when they went on a borrowing spree when crude was selling high.

Why did Aregbesola demand that the oil benchmark was too low and that the FG should increase it ?

Why did the Yorubas and Hausa/Fulani insist on increasing the oil benchmark for the 2013 and 2014 budget?

Please do not deceive yourselves as we all know your calls for restructuring are all blatant gimmicks

ignorance is bliss. enjoy it

Yyeske:
I don't blame when IPOB miscreants insult all these Igbo elders, where were these outgrown fools when the was being heated up by Nnamdi kanu, did they call him to order? Now the hate is getting seriously real, they are now blaming the north. Bunch of old fools

Gbam!!!

radio Biafra was live in the SE for at least a year before KANU was arrested but they didn't call him to order.

now they are blaming the northerners

Joshuasaintiago:
WHAT A PIECE ,SOUTH EAST ELDERS, HAVE WOKEN U P, SO WHAT IS SOUTH- SOUTH, SOUTH WEST, WAITING FOR ,?SMALL TIME THEY WILL SAY STOP INSULTING OUR ELDER AS IF THERE IS ANY ELDER IN NIGERIA POLITICS, PLEASE NAME YOUR ELDERSTATEMAN IF THERE IS ANY, NONSENSE

woken up? so it's northern propaganda that KANU launched BSS and the BSS commander is threatening to stop Anambra election?

keep blaming others for your own misdoings.

BTW stop typing in capital letters. it's rude and immature.

GavelSlam:
When Marlyn Ogar was with the DSS it was the most transparent organisation in Nigeria.

Reno is a complete id1ot

Mor0nkiri is just being clever by half.

in that eagles squad the only northerner is Ahmed musa.
there was a single Yoruba player, ekong from CRS and Moses from Edo state. all other 8-10 players (are from the south east). I guess we can also call them Biafran eagles.

Yes Buhari's appointments have been lopsided. But this federal character thing will only keep pulling us back.

if we want to continue using federal Character let's make sure when the eagles are playing we have

-2 sw players, 2nw players, 2 se players, 2 Ss players, 2NC players at least on the pitch at all times.
- if a player from any region gets injured or has to be substituted then someone from his region must replace him
- if there is no one from his region them let him remain on the field.


that's how dumb federal principle is

mor0ns

keep blaming others for your own goals.
next they'll blame afonja


long before the North responded (late 2014) I listened to radio Biafra in cross river and Owerri for several days. why didn't the SE leaders call KANU to order back then?
IPOB Kept insulting other ethnic groups and labeling us names yet you kept mum. the northers responded with just one press release (note that I'm not in support of the quit notice) and you're all crying like babies with stunted growth.

Is it also northern propaganda when Ebonyi BSS commander said they will stop the election from holding? it's on egberetv news and ibo owned sunnews.

the SE leaders are making the same mistake Northerners made with Boko Haram; not speaking out on time and doing enough to stop the movement before the poo hit the ceiling. Both the SE and North are just overgrown babies. Yoruba will definitely be better off without these two who are always pulling the country into chaos.

keep blaming the northerners

nymphomaniac:
Carlsen Is a demon but I wish our guy goodluck. If he plays white, he should use the stonewall attack. Definite win! As black, he should use the sicilia defence jare.

wow stonewall attack!!! my favourite move back then

dokie:
From your statement, you believe you are more intelligent than most youths in Nigeria, right? Yet it doesn't strike you that a man of integrity resigns rather than give excuses.

Chris Kolade resigned his appointment as the head of SureP when he realized he wasn't going to be given the free hand to run the program. That's what men of integrity do. Most foreign technical advisers we have had for the super eagles threaten or eventually resign as a result of interference with their jobs by the NFF. That's what men of integrity do. Festus Odumegwu resigned his appointment when he realized that the government was not going to give him a free hand to conduct the census. That's what performers do.

No true performer would allow you tarnish the name he has made for himself over the years, a true man of integrity values that name more than any position you want to offer himor that he is occupying.

Fashola has failed in power, has failed in works and does not even exist in housing and you are here blaming the Legislature? Since they are hindering his performance,He should resign and tell Nigerians that he can't cope. Then he will keep the supposed goodwill that he has. But no he won't.

The name he made in Lagos, he has lost in abuja (making it obvious that there was really no big deal in what he did in Lagos - Ambode is doing same if not better) and he doesn't think it's time to leave yet until he starts getting insulted. And here you are saying the youths are docile and unintelligent, insulting those quoting and criticizing your lousy, shallow and sentiment laden comment.

Your mumu level is raised to the power of infinity. You need devine help to be redeemable.

Get out.

at least I'm more intelligent than you. when men of integrity continue to resign and theyvare replaced by wolves then there is a big problem. instead of letting the man if integrity that wants to serve resign we should fight the wolves and make them do the right thing.


common sense!!!

Ratello:
You sure do know more than the Senators who slashed the "Rogue Fashola" budget almost by half knowing fully well the "dirty smooth criminal" antecedent in jerking up value of budgets beyond reasonable measure yet not completing such projects. I hope your sorry azzz still remembered the website he designed with an outrageous amount that will make any reasonable website designer to wonder aloud if he is designing for heaven, need I remind you of the car pack fiasco? What about the simple 3 km lekki-epe road he quoted outrageous sum for yet couldn't complete? What do you have to say about the 1km bridge at ikoyi the rogue completed with that "terrific sum"? Don't let me assume you are suffering from bipolar disorder this early morning please. Stop posting lengthy bullshiite again anytime Fashola's case comes up for discussion. It makes you appear to some of us as a kid!

keep making a fool of yourself. at the end of the day your Niger bridge remains untouched for another year simply because the senators you are defending removed the 5b FG counterpart fund and shared it amongst themselves for the purchase of grinding machines. hope you've collected your own grinding machine? this is September o


your mumu never do

DabuIIIT:
A4onjas again..

yes afonja owns the lords chosen. Lazarus mouka is from ogbomosho.

clap for yourself


before you mention ondo state 90% of chosen members are not yorubas. they are serving God their own way sha. Good for them

Ratello:
I hardly read through your lengthy banals knowing fully well that you are just like your master Fashola filled with noise but no voice, it is noteworthy that if truly Fashola is competent as you always portray him to be, he won't be a perpetual complainer and excuse givers as he had always been from inception of his sojourn in this aimless government of APC. I think you are just a kid working for Fashola and willing to die for him. Sail on kid.

ignorant one. as a minister he did his job by submitting a budget for his ministry but your senators slashed the budget by more than half. we are talking of a critical ministry like works o. yet you want him to perform magic and fix the roads without paying contractors. something is wring with your brain. you even had the guts to call me a kid after this your foolish opinion

Nyouth:
delisioned fellow Asari never collected any amnesty

hehe this onenis drunk o. asari didn't collect amnesty money? there is nothing I won't see on nairaland

DabuIIIT:
deeply concerned self appointed niger delta affairs analyser

keep fooling yourself all over social media. this s a Nigerian website. if you want us ti stay out of your secession threads then quit bringing into our domain.

MasterKim:
As a Yoruba boy, I don't have any problem with the agitations stuff, infact, it's a long waited idea. The only part I dislike is hate speeches against the Yoruba nation.
If Hausa talk, u blame Yoruba,
if fulani kill ibo man, na Yoruba he go face,
If moto jam goat for aba, na Yoruba dem go face,
If road get pot-hole for enugu, na Yoruba dem go blame,
Flooding take over Texas, everybody dey sympathize, if na southwest d tin apun, dem go don crucify us, find one name give us,

If Yoruba come reply dem go dey cry,
If Yoruba no come talk anytin, dem go dey shout coward wey no fit talk anytin.
Yoruba be slave, how e take konsain u if we be slave,
Yoruba be coward, why u no fit mind ur business and leave coward alone

Now my question be say WETIN YORUBA DO GAN GAN.
According to u guys, we be slaves for dz country, why u come dey disturb us?
In short, I tire for una.

Awo made them lose the war

- he stopped giving them food. the food meant for the women and the children were eaten by the rebels

- he changed the currency after the looted central bank ore.

those two actions dealt the fatal blow to their dream of drgging the war for so long and getting a stalemate now you know why they hate yorubas

wordcat:
Awolowo and Fani-Kayode who's greater?

Me think it is Fanl-Kayode. Awolowo drank rat poison when he heard that fg wanted to arrest him but Fani-Kayode has refused to shiver even many times he had been arraigned for corruption charges.

someone died at almost 80 and some mor0ns from the land of the drug mules keep spreading false stories of rat poison. it's a surprise some humans can make a nairaland post with a room temperature IQ.

Okoroawusa:
Sir,no matter how much u try to explain they can never understand.

sometimes I begin to wonder if these yoots are homo sapiens like us or still stuck at the homo abilis stage of evolution. it's a big shame


hate and bitterness really impairs proper brain function

omohayek:
Well said. Unfortunately, you're wasting your time with people who just want an excuse to vent their tribal hatred, facts be damned - the same sorts of people who blamed Fashola when the representatives and senators from their own region voted to divert funds meant for the 2nd Niger Bridge into "constituency projects" that only end up funding the flashy lifestyles of thieves like Dino Melaye.

it's a big shame!!! I wonder how the country they crave to have so desperately will work with this kind of mentality. back then fashola cried blue murder and they all told him to shut up. now he's telling them he can't work without the budget and they want him to pave the roads with gold from his as$


these yoots are the real zombies

Ratello:
Just shut it Mr Rocket Scientist, you are simply clueless and grossly incompetent to achieve meaningful positive strides in those ministries under your care. You are just a corrupt, petty rabble rouser filled with empty excuses
What a sorry azxx this boastful man is.

most of our youths like this guy I quoted are just too docile and unintelligent. they don't even known their true enemy so they don't know who to attack.


a few months ago the legislature

- slashed the budget for Lagos-ibadan expressway from 16b to 6billion. moved a whooping 10b to purchase of grinding machines and boreholes as constituency projects that they will never execute.

- removed a whooping 5b naira from the FG's counterpart fund for the second Naija bridge and moved it to grinding machines and boreholes (sic)

- slashed the budget for another road (can't remember the name) connecting four states in the North and moved the funds to constituency projects that won't be executed.

Fashola screamed out and we know the people that told him to shut up and take the blame.

thus country will be free the moment the youths recognise their true enemy and stop chasing shadows


let me mention their monikers

kingsolex, three, elriyaz, zombietamer, josephobaro, paiz, juman, ibifizzleboy, murphyibiam15, totorimi, rexlims


over 11 comments and none of them is sensible enough to blame the legislature for removing money from roads to buy billions of naira worth of grinding machines.

una mumu never do

the same asari that collected amnesty money and went ti invest it outside Nigeria. the mistake people keep making is thinking these militants care about them. these militants only care about money.


if buhari is willing to gag asari today the FG should give him the contract to guard the pipelines at his backyard and pay him just 2b quarterly. he'll shut up. that's how much these militants care.


the same asari that said GEJ must stay till 2019? all of a sudden he's blaming a buhari that took over 2yrs ago for Nigeria's problems since independence.


asari is a slowpoke

mumu ipob yoots. is real doesn't give a fvck about you. attache by force

BornnAgainChild:
It should be Curse instead

born again indeed with the negative energy you are displaying all over nairaland. You curse your Jerusalem (Nigeria) and you curse it's king (Buhari) yet you call yourself a christian. He became the president because God wanted him there. It's time for your to grow up.

And yes I'm an afonja muslim
