you have a point there. i would be lying if i say i'm comfortable with his appointment all the same wish him all the best tbaba1234: |
ok fair enough he has the qualifications and experience for the role. is he the best we could have gotten? considering we have guys like emenalo, oliseh hanging around tbaba1234: |
Victor Osimhen still making me proud . was reading a claim on twitter about Osimhen being the highest scoring African in the top 5 leagues with 18 goals if we count all competitions. Actually he's level with Salah who has more assists. if Lille sells Osimhen for anything less than €60m whenever he leaves the person who signed off should be thoroughly flogged. |
i don't know bro. is daniel the type who can extrapolate theories draft proposals about how our national teams are to play? this role would have been so ideal for someone like oliseh who has a good grasp of modern tactics. tbaba1234: |

i've been on guest mode still reading the pro and anti yobo comments. i wasn't going to contribute on the matter further but frankly speaking i'm worried with this desperation to sell this appointment of yobo's to the nigerian public. solace chukwu's article has encapsulated all my thoughts on the matter. It will be well with the Super Eagles |
edi287:how did being better on the ball Translate into defensive master classes in the super Eagles. Reading the game? When how? |
no that's not true we use first african team to win olympic gold in football to stay relevant we use chioma ajunwa first black African woman to win an Olympic gold medal in a field event to stay relevant we use boxing to stay relevant we use weight lifting to stay relevant we've won medals in taekwando to stay remove running and suffering from your olympic medal count and your country will have almost zero medals gallivant: |
but you are his spokesperson na . abi you sha countered Tbaba how he knows yobo has no license. so that means he has one please show us BascoVanVeli: |
my brother i just weak Humility017: |
omeruo, ekong tell me how much better peak Yobo is better than these two edi287: |
hmmm our democracy in danger Nksleek: |
really? please tell me what did peak Yobo do playing wise that trumped all our current CB? jihday: |
kolo toure at least has a license. please show us yobo's certificate BascoVanVeli: |
but you said he will improve them na. so this excellent defensive ability would have shown up during his playing days. plus as tbaba rightly said being a good defender doesn't mean you will be an excellent coach. for example steve bould was appointed to assist wenger to 'imrove' arsenal's defence. well we all know how that turned out BascoVanVeli: |
as a player Joseph Yobo had a decent career props to him but making him an assistant just because of a hunch and not because of anything technical he brings to the table is poor. his appointment is simply creating a wrong with another wrong. i brought up his defensive mistakes because you were hyping how he would improve our defence BascoVanVeli: |
the closet example of this kind of appointment i can remember was England appointing David Beckham to Capello's technical crew for the 2010 WC even that was more like a motivational/cheerleading role. finidi was there, ugbade was there, adepoju was there heck even olofijana is there but no it has to be yobo tbaba1234: |
er bros it's ok to think Joseph Yobo will do well with the SE but please don't overhype his appointment. sorry but which players look up to Yobo? Yes they might respect him as an ex-super eagles players but it's not like he's some living legend that the boys would adore. Mikel like you mentioned already would fit the role. Yobo improve our defenders Really!? Really!!!? same Yobo that controlled our defence in 2010 world cup that conceded against almighty Greece and South Korea? same Yobo Keshi had to bench most of the time before we won 2013 AFCON? Oga i respect Yobo for his longevity and sacrifice for the national team but please don't call a dog a cat just to sell him to us BascoVanVeli: |
Earthquake2:earthquake o! ![]() |
yeah this is exactly what came to my mind when CAF announced another switch in dates for the competition. However, if Klopp is really keen on him then the transfer could still materialize. All things being equal it seems Chukwueze is destined to go to a top level club this summer. Earthquake2: |
my brother isn't our God a wonderful God [author=andrewbaba44 post=86504875]So mikel obi has achieved more things in football than Liverpool legend Steven Gerard [/quote] |
TheGoodJoe:lol Alex Ferguson who is a few of them's MCM has only ever won two champions league titles but Pep Guardiola is a fraud |
andrewbaba44:you dey mind them some people will have serious migraine if Pep Guardiola should win the champions league again |
wow wow wow I be sounding like an ambulance lolThis odion ighalo transfer to Manchester United I'll be honest I never saw coming but I'm really happy for him from a career and sentimental point of view. Truly he serves a living God and dreams Do Come True. Speaking strictly as a football fan obviously Manchester United could have signed younger better quality forwards in this window but to be fair to Jude a lot of top clubs wanted to sign him so he must have good qualities those clubs think they can utilise. No doubt about it when in-form odion ighalo is a very good finisher. I dislike Manchester United but I wish him all the best at the theatre where dreams come true. |
Just30:even India that had the highest number of people living in poverty before Nigeria took over were they not still better than a lot of countries with Way Lower poverty rates. |
Just30:My Guy don't stress yourself them concurring with you is like trying to get water out of stone. I mean it's very simple and logical a country like Switzerland for example could have two million people out of a total population of 3 million people who are middle-class. Well India that has 1 billion people could have 200 million people who are middle class. Based on percentages you would say Switzerland has the higher number of middle class people but based on numbers it will also be correct to say India has the higher number of middle class people |
TheSuperNerd:you have said it all doc. Personally I prefer Samuel Kalu based on natural talent and ability but at the moment Simon Moses has been more consistent together with end product and will logically deserve to start ahead of Samuel in the national team. |
iyke648:last I heard next year |
Thank you for your informed analysis I found it very enlightening. On the issue of where dangote would get his crude oil and price he will buy it for the article stated that it seems nnpc will give him a special allocation of 450000-470000 barrels of crude. However we don't know if they will sell it to him at international price. I also expect the new refinery to open us up to the African Market through the recently signed acfta Trade act. author=obailala post=85700323] jpphilips and ultron12345 have already done great justice to this thread. Nigeria currently spends between $6-7 billion annually importing petroleum product. When ramped to full capacity, the 650,000bpd Dangote refinery can produce over 50million litres of petrol per day, this is in addition to millions of litres of diesel, kerosene, aviation fuel daily. Essentially when at full production, Dangote refinery can meet more than 100% of Nigeria's refined products' demand. In addition to Dangote, there are over 40 other private mushroom refineries being built currently which would also add to Nigeria's refining capacity (when dangote goes live, owners of these other refineries will be forced to speed up construction). A major benefit of all these is that Nigeria will instantly grow from net importer to net exporter of refined products. A point to note - A barrel of crude may sell for $55 today, but if that barrel is refined to finished products before being sold, Nigeria could make over $200 from a single barrel of crude. In essence, the economic benefits of selling finished products as opposed to just raw material is immense. Currently, refined product import gulps over 50% of Nigeria's forex earnings which could have been used for other essentials. With $6-7bn in forex saved annually, and some extra forex being made from net exportation of finished products, the effect on the value of the Naira cannot be overemphasised; the CBN could easily return the Naira to N200/$ if it so pleases, although I doubt they will ever want to do that because it will make no economic sense (i.e. forcefully return us to lazy importation days). Regarding transportation for both crude and refined products to/from the Dangote site, huge pipelines are currently being built as part of the project. Huge jetties are also in place for import/export of crude/finished products by sea. Dangote would most likely buy Nigerian crude, but if there are hitches, I believe there must be alternative arrangements to source crude from elsewhere. Finally, one area I hold a contrary opinion to many is in the final pricing. Dangote will not sell petrol for less than N145, I doubt he would sell for anything less than N200 and I would explain why I think so. Dangote will not get crude for free, he will have to pay the global going rate for crude. If he pays the global rate, he will obviously make far more money if he sells his products to foreign buyers as opposed to locally. So why exactly should he sell for N145 locally and lose potential profits? And another prediction I have is that the moment Dangote refinery is operational and the moment the NNPC no longer needs to import fuel, the Nigerian government would finally detegulate the downstream sector fully, giving Dangote (and the other smart opportunists) the free hand to fix prices and fleece Nigerians. Dangote would easily become richer than the entire nation.[/quote] |
Blueelf:true true going to a club like Arsenal or Chelsea would give Samuel a good platform to showcase himself and improve as well. I also agree with you the managers of these clubs would provide Samuel with the necessary guidance and at times required tough love that should help him straighten out his game and begin to fulfill his potential. |
Happy New Year everyone please I would appreciate if you could spare some time to read this article I put the link below. Would kindly appreciate your opinion on the questions raised in the article in connection to the question I raised some years back about how the Refinery would impact on the Nigerian economy. https://www.theafricareport.com/21854/behind-the-hype-is-dangotes-refinery-a-game-changer/amp/?__twitter_impression=true cc 989900, tonyebarcanista, omenka, sarrki, theGoodjoe, obailala, jpphilips and any other moniker i erroneously omitted your contributions to this topic would be highly appreciated and welcome thanks |
