Vic Moses is washed up already.. Seen few of his games at Inter. There's no value he could possibly add to our team presently.

I agree. I wanted Victor Moses to come back before but based on the form and Talent of The winger we currently have available I think we can do without him. That said respect to him for his contributions to the super Eagles

Joebie:
I don’t think the account took any sides. It seems genuine.
I will fault Oliseh for poor timing.

my thoughts exactly. Sunday as the manager of the team should have been above board any kind of insinuation. He should have called Vincent into his office and sorted things out with him. Vincent I guess was still feeling very emotional from the burial of his mum and may not have been thinking rationally and clearly. Sadly a lack of understanding and communication lead to an unceremonious end of a great career. In a way that's why I respect rohr his man management skills have kept the super Eagles going. It takes more than being a good tactician to become a successful manager.

The Chinese can't get enough of it either...

this had me in stitches

that face you make when trying to suppress laughter

MainJoe:
How do you know it is not enough?

I said strategic, not mass testing. Get it?

I'm not an expert but neither are you so how can you say with authority what would be adequate?

MainJoe:
15 billion is enough to work and carryout strategic tests if they were serious.

how do you know it's enough are you an expert in battling pandemic?

MainJoe:
N5 Billion siphoned in the last few days in a country that don't have enough testing centres. And you want me to clap for them.

that screenshot you posted do you know anambra beneficiaries received there's too? please there are many things to criticize this govt with not misinformation or half truth

MainJoe:
They have N15 Billion for just Covid-19. That is enough for strategic planning and execution to combat this at this stage to prevent a nationwide outbreak. That is not happening.

convert that amount to dollars compare to what 1 state in the US is spending to battle the virus then you will know how inadequate it is

MainJoe:
America are testing 100,000 people a day and these guys are making us believe 4,000 a day is enough to keep a country of 200 million people safe.

testing 4000 is not adequate but you just don't want to understand they are working with limited capacity. you are expecting Real Madrid output from a team that has the budget and equipment of enyimba

MainJoe:
Almost all revenue coming in should get channelled into stopping this virus. It is not happening now no matter how we try to defend them.

Let the minister tell us the spread of the test. In the 4,000 tested, how many are outside Lagos and Abuja.

In a sane society, this man would have been sacked to get replaced with someone more innovative. Same with NCDC boss. These guys are clearly lost.

We need a sample survey of different regions to know the amount of spread. You can engage various health ministries and boards with some money to carry out sample tests and calculate the possibility of spread.

dude this is why I'm saying your criticism should come with a healthy dose of reality. so its only fed that has right to the revenue? states will not collect their own ba? Police will ensure security won't be paid abi? civil servants nko? you make it sound like we have a magic tree generating money that will do all these things you mentioned

the sane societies are also battling this pandemic. Italy Spain and a few other countries that have more money and resources than us how are they fairing? please let's get real and cooperate to beat this virus

Without Mass Testing, the Coronavirus Pandemic Will Keep Spreading

---

Countries such as South Korea that test thousands of people per day have slowed the outbreak. Other nations must adopt Seoul’s model before it’s too late.

The key to South Korea’s success has been speed and an early push toward mass testing, rigorous contact tracing, and mandatory quarantine for anyone near a carrier of the virus.

The country, with a population of 51 million, tests more than 20,000 people a day at more than 600 testing sites nationwide, while integrating apps that not only track individuals if they have tested positive, but also warn them if they might have been exposed to a known case.

https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/03/23/coronavirus-pandemic-south-korea-italy-mass-testing-covid19-will-keep-spreading/

Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.

South Korea has how many test kits that should be your question even almighty a
america is struggling to get people tested so it's not a problem unique to Nigeria. the NCDC hopes to ramp up testing to 1000 tests per day which is still inadequate but it's better than nothing

MainJoe:
I earlier stated and will repeat. If the NCDC were serious, they will know that 7 labs will not do. The 8th they talked about I guess was the one partnered with StanbicIBTC. With more efforts, we would have had more labs to test at a faster rate.

Let us stop the whole talking of UK and US. South Africa is here and see how far they have gone to fight this, despite still facing challenges. Look at the magnitude of daily tests.

I refuse to buy the idea of praising the clear mediocrity going on in the NCDC.

We had enough time to prepare. We had enough time and money to isolate returnees. We can with serious focus test a far more number.

Are they not the ones giving Buhari the useless message of focusing on Lagos and Abuja when anyone with a little bit of reasoning will know that this virus spread like wildfire in a dry Bush.

Hammer to the President the need for rapid attention in all States to prevent a major outbreak in the country.

Making us believe that locking down is a solution instead of accepting they are lost in what to do except siphoning money.

bro when did this virus gain global attention early January and it's not as if we had the complete picture of the virus something that was domiciled in China like wildfire it spread to Italy before you know it here we are. this is an unprecedented situation that every country is dealing with so saying ours is terrible when every country has a story to tell is a bit unfair. South Africa that you mentioned do you know 80% of the tests is through private sector? so you think the head of NCDC is a total ignoramus who doesn't know more tests need to be done? do you know how much it costs to do 1 test? the labs you mentioned will they drop from the sky? you say we have money when crude oil has been selling for $20 on average for close to a month now
this is not about praising anybody it's about being realistic we have limitations we are trying to work around all hands public and private sector need to be on ground this is not the time for what ifs that change nothing

we can do better yes but at the same time appreciate the little effort being made vis a vis the limited resources we have

MainJoe:
We have not taken any serious action to curb a possible high spread in the Nation. People still move freely because of the news of low death rate and exposure. People still mingle without fear because of same reason. Unless we start testing in large number, we can not ascertain how well we have done in preventing possible spread.


Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.

I think you underestimate the efforts of the agencies dealing with this. for example do you know airports in UK and US are still open to some extent yet ours are completely grounded even domestic flights.
On the issue of testing yes more testing should be done but the question is do we have enough kits? mind you there's a global shortage occasioned by global demand. in terms of testing it's only South Korea that has done very well in that regard. Sadly for now Nigeria does not produce testing kits so we will have to rely on importing them in which cost money and will take time especially considering how global commerce has been badly affected.
on the issue of lock down as imperfect as it is the alternative is not much better. if you say you don't lock down the virus will spread uncontrollably tell people to stay at home hunger and crime will increase so no line of action is ideal. however I prefer we err on the side of lock down which potentially could save more lives.

komekn:
Lack of capacity Nigeria will not be able to carry out comprehensive testing unless we can manufacture the testing kits ourselves. And overnight upgrade our laboratory services across the country.

However, we have some things going for us the crazy hot baking sun, will barbecue Corona virus on surfaces and airborne after a few seconds. Add to that "Nobody One Die" that creates an attitudinal behaviour that self regulates with regards to social distancing, hygiene and face masks. And we have only 3 deaths.

Yet everyone is aware, responding and we are locking down, at least most people, we go suffer hunger etc but it's the price to pay.

The UK attitudinal approach is abysmal even after hundreds of deaths. People going around like "whaaten concern me" see picture below of tube jammed up, no face masks. I stopped entering the tube and going to London in early February. To me the signs were obvious.

So Nigeria will OVERTAKE and OVERCOME.

And after doing all you can do, Pray and pray.

People in the UK are generally Godless.

welcome back komekn hope you are keeping safe. I agree with everything you've said may God guide us out of this situation.

Joebie:
For majority of the games Mikel played for Chelsea he kept his game simple though it was a crucial role for Chelsea’s many wins. Okocha however always stood out and his impact in games were obvious. These two players are in two different wave lengths.

I think Mikel would have turned out to be a very good central midfielder if not world class. Unfortunately the English game I think didn't give him the space and time to develop that aspect of his game immensely. Other leagues like La Liga or Italian seria A might have provided that perfect environment to flourish

Joebie:
There are very few players in football history that are usually marked by not 2, 3 alone but 4 or even more players at a time in a game. If only Okocha played less for fun, he would be among football’s greatest in terms of achievement as well.

bro I've seen Jay Jay Okocha do stuff that the likes of Maradona Zidane and Ronaldinho get accolades for. Like you rightly said if he was serious there is no telling the height his career would have gotten to. He showed glimpses of that in his first and second season with Bolton but by then diminishing returns had begun to set in.

With people of your calibre it's only appropriate that I act childish.

that's good you know your place

JaceBlaze:
E PAIN AM

you are very childish

JaceBlaze:
Drugged out by generator fumes?

more like from the smell of your BS

JaceBlaze:
At least an earthworm has contributed greatly to humanity.

yawn

JaceBlaze:
Everything except your 1st grader mentality.

because you have the mentality of an earthworm

JaceBlaze:
So you understand regular English?

so you understand anything at all?

JaceBlaze:
@BascoVanVeli!!!!! let's talk

You talk sey dey get sense? I can only smell an illiterate ignoramus.

guy it's not by force to speak pidgin English. Stick to regular English Zulu or xhosa

JaceBlaze:
We didn't get past that..water under the bridge.We moved on,can you?

what happened no come backs witty remarks?

JaceBlaze:
Yes of course.If she stood next to this?

don't be so hard on yourself your inner beauty shines through

JaceBlaze:
We never claimed SA was gonna win,even the Super Checkens with their "Football ages" knew it was folly winning against those Euro teams.

dude the least you could have done was make it past the first round. Anyway if you insist on hosting instead of winning tournaments who am I to complain reminds me of 2013 I'm sure you do too!

Danielnino00:
Victoria secret beauty indeed...
You don't have shame at all...

Not surprised anyway..she is one of the few blacks who are making your country proud in sports...

thank God for I AAF

JaceBlaze:
The fact that we got to hold such a magnificent event before Super Checkens is a win in itself.I know you wish you could wash that away from history books and your restless thoughts but no! it's a permanent,indelible stain that will haunt envious people to their graves

now I know you are a comedian so hosting a tournament equals winning a trophy?

JaceBlaze:
They don't have to cheat when they look like Whoopie Goldberg twins.Caster Semanya looks like Victoria Secret beauty if we compare with your Wrong Turn hillbillies.

Puhaaahaa

dude really you are using Semenya to boast?

Danielnino00:
At least, Nigerian women in sports don't cheat their way to stardom like this transgendered here...

don't mind the shameless hypocrite

JaceBlaze:
If I were you I would stick to discussions strictly about Super Checkens cause when it comes to South Africa and it's sporting history you seem to be in the dark

You mentioned players who retired years ago just to appear all knowing? show me a white bowler today that's better than Rabada.So Kevin Pietersen's departure means those black players were bad? and if he left simply because the players are black then why should we give a damn?

Show me a black majority country where they have swimming as their stronghold in winning Olympic medals.What do you guys have besides soccer?

super chickens have 1 Olympic gold medal 1 bronze medal 1 silver medal 3 Nations Cup titles. Relay gold medal long jump gold medal weightlifting silver medal boxing silver medal you want me to go on?

Your football team has only won one misely trophy on Home soil when we were absent. Your terrible football team has the record for the only host country in the history of the World Cup to be eliminated in the first round what a bunch of loudmouth's you are!
