Glad to know Ugali in E.A is ubiquitous...from Kenya/UG all the way south to Zambia/ Zim. Just learned what we call ugali is what you call fufu.

really? ugali is made from cassava too?

TayserMahri:
Similar from E.A Malawi

yep but it's not everyone that eats pounded yam popular down south not so much in the north. they prefer tuwo a kind of rice/maize pap

TayserMahri:

Very sad news to read. I pray God grant them the strength to bear the loss. Not an easy journey for the young man.

may God comfort the young man.

As in ehn, he is only Nigerian from his mother's side, but the guy dey carry our matter for head like say na full Nigerian.

He's actually putting in work; making efforts, changing teams and scoring goals to catch the eye of the coach, granting interviews to profess his love for Nigeria, learning English that is not even his first language, to ease communication, despite being overlooked for one hit wonders like Onuachu over the years.

A true King, we must Stan.

true his passion has won me over. I also like his straight forwardness not using us to catch trips or boost his career. He genuinely wants to rep the green white green. I think this should be a lesson to all our Scouts as much as we can reach out to players don't waste time with people who are obviously not interested.

Joebie:
Well he don speak he mind. Zero affinity to Nigeria and that’s how he feels...

personally I don't feel bad. would have been an asset and increased our strength in depth but losing out on him isn't a loss. I felt bad about losing tomori even Abraham that I didn't feel bad about would have been more of an acquisition than billing

solonnachi:
Thank you Desser for not finnish-ing us

actually of all the foreign born players we got to play for us his is pleasantly surprising cos he is practically Belgian plus has so far shown he has above average quality

Edopesin:
He was respectful enough, there's no reason to fault the way he said it

emphasizing his siblings Danish roots plus adding not feeling Nigerian was unnecessary IMO but what is done is done

Ibime:
A long but great read.

thanks wonderful read

no need for gbas gbos on this billing issue. he has made his choice no need to be sour about it. that said he should have been more circumspect and respectful with his words but hey what is done is done

TayserMahri:
Yea is very girlish...Someone with a name like Austin should be totally badass.

what!? Tasha Maria calling someone else girlish really?

TayserMahri:
Jollof?? You import rice from Asia

your lord and master and idiot in chief has confirmed we don't import again from them try another one rafiki

Austine1212:
Sometimes is better not to comment if you don't know things

when we them idiots they don't know we are complimenting them. so wine is now a cash crop? I can as well say we grow beer since one of the ingredients is sorghum.

Please just ignore them the lack of maize in their diet has started affecting them

rvp20182:
Ironically you're also the biggest importer of tomatoes - both processed and raw.

the irony of someone whose country has starving people yet uses their arable land to grow tea and flowers

rvp20182:
Which Tomatoes? Nigeria is the amongst the WOLRD LEADING IMPORTERs OF TOMATO PASTE? They import raw tomatoes from Benin and the likes. Dangote put up a factory to process tomato paste and try take some of the import billions - and he closed the factory for lack of Tomatos.

https://www.freshplaza.com/article/9144416/nigeria-s-biggest-tomato-facility-idle-again/
When Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest man, decided to set up the plant, it was done with the clear goal of supplanting imports of tomato paste - which were mostly coming from China - but that process has suffered setbacks.

Currently, the 1,200-ton-a-day tomato-processing factory near the West African nation’s northern city of Kano is closed, unable to get its required feed stock as farmers have switched to other crops at the beginning of the rainy season in May.

The plant was idle for more than two years until March this year over a supply disruption partly caused by a price dispute with farmers. Even after the disagreement was resolved, the factory was unable to ramp up production beyond 20% of its capacity due to inadequate supply of tomatoes; most of the farmers lacked the needed credit to expand their production

always lying to your gullible audience

you and this your ministry of Lies! Nigeria is one of the top producers of tomatoes on the continent. I have not mentioned rice ginger cassava yams sorghum Millet maize but is all good you are a train propagandist I hope kenyatta is paying top Dollar for this

Has anyone seen this? Let me just put it here for our low self-esteem brothers from East Africa

samorobo:
I am.puttung up this contest..show me something like this in Kenya and I promise not to ever speak on this thread again ...I would literally evaporate...

Guy your descendants would be enjoying their old age before that happens

charlesemeka85:
the same attacking football siasia's team will play, score 5 and conceed 4 lol

Morocco sef that has more technical players than us see how they struggle. my Guy Joe is talking as if we are negative all the time. can rohr be unduly conservative at times? yes no one has disputed that but that conservatism is mostly down to opposition and players available. since last year's AFCON haven't we been playing more expansive football since the addition of extra quality like Aribo and a few others?

TheGoodJoe:
Put that team in this current set up and you will see poor performances. Let that team play in a Conservative tone and you will not believe they are capable of great things.

We need to grow as a team from training to live performances. Negative play will limit us from reaching our level.

lol OK

charlesemeka85:

I have said this thing so many times we don't have the players to execute the fantasy football that people want. I was watching highlights of our AFCON 94 triumph Oliseh provided 4 solid assists as a DM oh! bar Mikel how many midfielders have we produced that come close to such performance then we beat our chest that we want to play attacking football as if it's by mouth

komekn:

Bruv it's very very very difficult for a black coach to get a Managers job in England as well as in Europe.

The system is intrinsically racist and corrupted.

With all the black players you have in England and with thier European A licences they cannot get a job. Best you get is youth football.

Look at what happened to Darren Moore at West Bromwich and Chris Houghton at Newcastle. Blatant unrestrained racism.

This is the English life they never talk about in the news.

sadly true. ex-international Sol Campbell has the requisite badges but has and continues to be ignored. lamps and Gerrard on the other hand where barely a year into top management but like magic the top jobs get thrown at them

komekn:
I agree but would have Finidi as head he us not tainted with past experience of the NFF.

Finidi brings a clear perspective with clean hands and zero politics only a desire to succeed and he is not hungry for money.

agree 100%

TheGoodJoe:
I still root for Amunike And Finidi pair.

Both are home grown, played in our local league.

Both played under the highest point of our game, the US 94 team under Clemence Westerhof.

Both played under the tactical grandmaster, Louis Van Gaal (Finidi at Ajax and Amunike at Barcelona)

Both played in the Spanish league which is known for their appreciation of brilliant passing football.

Both got their coaching licence in Spain.

Enough of recycling old coaches and give the younger ones their chances. I say Amunike head and Finidi Assistant.

I think the NFF missed a trick not making Finidi Rohr's assistant would have been most ideal. still not sold on Amunike

Danielnino00:
You overrate the championship..
Money is about the only thing the championship offers better than the leagues u mentioned there.. and maybe game time..

The championship is filled with average coaches who still play kick and rush football..that's why a lot of championship teams don't last in the EPL..

Any player looking to develop and improve himself shouldn't consider going to the championship or any second tier league unless he desperately needs game time...

Netherlands,France and Belgium have proven to be the best European leagues for young players to develop themselves

you are right these aforementioned leagues develop a players technical ability. championship basically just prepares you mentally and physically for the EPL

Danielnino00:
Your conclusion is the main thing..

Ejuke won't be the first winger we will have that will show so much promises....Even Onyekuru had better stats than him when he was in Belgium...

ejuke is a prospect no doubt but we still need to observe him for some time before we can conclude he's better than Mr A or B. sometimes we get carried away with some of our players performances without taking in the perspective of where he plays

safarigirl:
thank you

Happy Birthday SG keep flying higher and higher blessings

Bretton wood largest debtor has received another loan again , she did it last year when there was no corona , she is also doing it this year as a yearly ritual.

Another loans received to fund budget not infrastructure


who is the real Bretton wood institution puppet ?

very irresponsible lot! borrowing to fund recurrent and debt borrowing about 60% of their GDP with nothing to show for it except a soon to be Chinese owned tuketuke railway and Chinese owned port.

I saw their idiot in chief claiming it's cheaper to import than grow their own food. it's like the slowpoke hasn't heard of food security before.

For the love of God most of you on nairaland have access to Google please look up the symptoms of covid-19 . Isn't fever part of the symptoms so where do you like to create controversy where there is none? You say ncdc is lying to you so all the countries in the world are lying on this matter? Everybody has collectively decided to sit at home destroying the economy because they want to lie to you? Please some of you try and engage your brain. It doesn't require a ring if that is what is doing some of you SMH
