Bro PMB failed in the areas you rightly highlighted but as per infrastructure you have to give him his dues even if grudgingly.
3 railway line finished and running except for the Abuja-Kaduna line due to the kidnapped hostages. other railway lines currently being built.
3 Completed airport terminals (Abuja, Lagos and PH) 2 almost finished (Kano and Enugu).
Highways and bridges finished or almost completed (2nd Niger bridge, Ikom bridge linking Cameroon, Lagos-Ibadan express way, Oyo-Ogbomoso, Oworoshoki-Apapa etc).
PPP partnership that's set to deliver a new port in Lekki.
Gas AKK pipeline.
Siemens ongoing electricity project plus new Zungeru power stations.
Not forgetting numerous important legislation like Electoral act, Petroleum Industry act, CAMA, Startup bill.
Even in security where he has been found wanting it's not for lack of weapons. New tanks and APC's for military. New more effective fighter aircraft for NAF, Navy has also gotten new frigates and cruisers which has helped reduce incidents of piracy attacks to zero in H1 2022. Boko Haram though still a threat have been reduced greatly but more still needs to be done.
Unfortunately his mishandling of the economy and lack of tact managing the diverse tribes of the country will tarnish his legacy.
His nonchalance at best or tacit support of fulani militia at worst has been a stand out failure for me.
obaaderemi: Which economic infrastructure? Don't bring up the sgr which was started in 2013 before he got to power.
100% spot on. The fact that he's still being bench for a almost past it Vardy, just there Barnes and a hot n cold Daka shows they don't really rate him. Can't his agent work some magic and get him one of the lower EPL clubs or even Spain, France?
KC has to step out of his comfort zone he's better than these bench roles he's been reduced to lately.
TheGoodJoe: If Iheanacho is that important to them, he won't be on the bench regularly. It is time to move. He likely has no future there. It will save them less letting him go on loan and having his wages shared, with an option to leave.
I'm really at a loss as to whether the super falcons coach should stay or go. If it's based on competence then you should have been gone like yesterday however the experience of the super Eagles recently is making me doubt if we should go that route. Plus are there any guarantees the new coaching crew will somehow perform magic at the World Cup next year? As painful as it is I think randy should be left for now
This midfield looks really decent. Uzoho why? chai
charlesemeka85: I will be extremely happy if Onyedika moves to Milan. Having more players in bigger leagues and clubs will help the profile of this current super eagles going forward
Players that worth hyping not dullards struggling to make it in lower leagues over the past 6 seasons now
Imagine these midfielders in good/decent clubs in top leagues in our ranks
Ndidi- leicester (epl) Aribo- Southampton (epl) Alhassan- royal antwep (Belgian league) Onyedika- ac milan (serie A if deal is completed) Iwobi- Everton (epl) Onyeka- brentford (epl) Ishaq- anderlecht (Belgian league) Bonke- lorient (ligue 1)
The Spanish team weren't all that invincible in 2010 jare. Remember they lost their first game. If not for some wayward finishing from Robben in the final we probably wouldn't be having this debate.
andrewbaba44: And they still beat teams that have much goal in them
It’s very hard to even score against them at the 2010 World Cup
Congrats Rvp your candidate pulled through eventually. Now hoping responsible leaders emerge to calm frayed nerves.
rvp2018: Election Comission released the results within 24hrs - it just didnt release the final tally. Raila folks despite knowing they have lost - are priming their people for huge disappointment by claiming they are winning - using magic - then later they start wailing in shock - as usual blaming rigging and computers.
All independent tallies show Ruto has won, met 50% plus 1 threshold required and 25% of more than half countries(24) counties, and is president-elect.
Very little violence mostly in some slums of Nairobi where Luos are many and in parts of Kisumu. Such violence will fizzle out in hours. They simply dont have the stomach for violence like kalenjin.
Bruuu how can you have democratic elections when people are excluded?
jl115: my bru, the 2nd amendment isn't there for people to start a civil wars.....i guarantee that Biden didn't win the 2020 election fairly and yet there is no civil war in the US.
You on the other hand just speculate that if Ruto lost then it must by rigging and thus there must be civil war.
Also SA had democratic elections before 94 as well.... It just didn't include certain people
Lastly of you look at African countries who are the most free and the most democratic then SA leads, only the likes of Mauritius and Botswana compete with SA in that regard
Exactly. For the Edo, Ekiti and Osun elections even before INEC announced the results we already had a fair idea who was winning.
obaaderemi: In Nigeria the results of each polling booth is uploaded straight online. Rigging is difficult nowadays. An example is the recent election in Osun.
Meanwhile, in Eldoret, Kalenjins are waiting for grand disappointment. I don't know what they will do after Rao has been declared the winner. I hope No violence will happen.
You can throw shade all you like but it's still a disgrace that for a supposed tech aware country you are finding it hard to compute less than 15m votes and declare a winner almost a week after elections.
Nigeria is not perfect but we all would have known the winners and losers by now.
Will be tough like you said. Maybe our scouts should start spreading there tentacles to other lesser European leagues. Maybe they can unearth a talented foreign born player.
Still for the life of me can't understand why Nigeria doesn't produce quality centre-backs. Since I've started watching the SE I can count the number of defenders on one hand that I've been impressed with.
charlesemeka85: The nff should try and reach out to atalanta’s young centre back Caleb memeh okoli
Kid is a beast and very good on the ball. already an Italian u21 regulars for highly rated. Will be a tough one to convince him but pinnick and peseiro should give it a try
Danielnino00: The participating teams have already been selected... Probably from the CAF ranking of clubs performance of the years.. Egypt alone has 4 teams...
Honestly it's annoying. Government gave some businesses money to private companies to provide electricity meters at a subsidized rate to consumers, but guess what they have chopped the money. Later we will criticize government that the power sector isn't growing. How will it grow when senseless stealing like this happens. Nigeria has to be the only country in the world where we deliberately sabotage what we will even make more money from just for mere small change.
theenchanter: bros, which day are we going to hold ourselves responsible for once, just once? Like, let's reflect on our very own doings and undoing? Why can't we ask ourselves why the market woman selling tomato in the market inflate price of her tomato and put the blame on dollar rise? Why should a landlord increase rent and claim prices of building materials are now expensive when he's not doing any renovation on the house? Let's ask ourselves why we chose to bribe an officer to make way way for us instead of going through the right process? See, all these things do not need government intervention but our conscience. We put the blame on the government a lot even when the fault is our. We put garbage into gutters and waterways, when rain fall and flood fills everywhere, we still blame the govt, why? Is it illiteracy or sheer wickedness?
Govt gives loans to the people, people didn't invest the monies on intended purposes and japaed, is it the govt fault? highest, govt won't do such interventions again if there's no headway on it and we'll still turn around to blame the govt.
Now , u still blame the govt on lack of accountability and that govt should strictly control things. Look, govt need the people for accountability too and govt can't control thing the way u put it unless we're in north Korea.
If govt pump out money for any intervention, they're pumping the money to us, if the officials are corrupt the same way we're corrupt, bros, nothing go show.
This part really fall my hand, because a few days ago I was reading the tweet of a policy expert interrogating why we haven't been growing wheat; how government lacks vision only to find out we actually bought wheat seedlings but our people still sabotage it.
That said government should also do their homework when trying to implement a policy to know the potential pitfalls and areas of possible sabotage. If people are benefiting from a dysfunctional system they will resist with everything they have to stop it being cleaned up.
theenchanter: my brother, the government is one hell of an entity, but we the masses are also hellish in nature, omo, our profiteering tendency is of huge magnitude, we don't care whose ox is gorged and we're all the same but have different or no opportunity. If some of us are to be at the helm of national affair, omo, country go dabaru pass like this.
Why I'm i saying this?
[b]Around February, we went to inspect some shipment of wheat, a special kind of wheat that the FG, through CBN imported from Mexico, to be planted across some northern states, because that's where the wheat will grow. These wheat is said to give 10x production of what we produce. This is not them say them say matter, I used my korokoro eyes see am, na 3 ships bring am for here, I climb to the base of the ships to see the seeds. We spent 5 days going to and from apapa when the shipment landed.
Loro kan, 400 trucks of wheat seeds found their way to be distributed to wheat farmers across the northern states to be planted and Nigeria should be easing itself of wheat issue. Omo, recently, I asked my oga about the wheats, he shook his head and said the farmers sold the seeds to some wealthy men over there and the wealthy men are exporting it to neighboring countries to be sold at profit. Omo, wheat wey FG bought expensively, wealthy men took advantage of the poor farmers and bought most in bulk from them at a cheaper price. [/b]
So I asked, sebi government know about this? they can't say they don't know.... Omo, las las, na dem dem dey do d runs.
Baba, naija don cast, I comot my hand for anything naija. So don't blame the govt on most things, they're doing their possible best but we, the citizens consciously or unconsciously constitute majority of the problems we face.
andrewbaba44: With years to come he will be up there if he keeps Scoring headed goals ,he is still young ,I think he scored about 7 or so last season in seria A .
But active players with the most headed goals currently ,he isn’t even in top 50 .
Our own Osimhen is not far off. I remember Supernerd doing a breakdown and analysis of headed goals in the top 5 leagues in Europe and how Victor is up there with the best.
