Guess he would rather honour God than please whichever tradition that might be offended by what he did.

BlueRayDick:
Abeg people from Delta/Niger Delta please does the Itsekiri culture allow a king to be bare headed?

I do hear people talk about similarities between the Itsekiri culture and the Yorubas all the time, but I was surprised seeing the Olu of Warri's picture from a recent palace church service in commemoration of his 4th coronation ceremony.

I mean in Yoruba culture a king's bare head would never be seen again from the day he's named Ọba elect till his demise. Even when he's in a church he would either have a crown on his head or a small cap which will cover his head at all times.

Spurs will have almost be swearing for Havertz knee right now.

Arsenal set to hijack Eze’s proposed move to Spurs

Heard Haverst might be out for a while.

Papi85:
they just made enquiries, nothing serious yet

Perception too fuels transfer decisions.

Yes, club admins consider your talent first but will also look at if your character won't cause disharmony to the team.

lbrichman2:
You should know that Lineker was only pushing agenda
They were embarrassed and jealous that Osimhen got such a hero's reception at Gala..

That's different from club admins that make transfer decisions

You'll be surprised.

No be Osimhen wey we all know no dey joke with training Lineker talk say him dey disappear for days.

Samueltemi337:
You think clubs care about that?

Social media shenanigans and seeming unseriousness.

Congrats to you and your madam.

Blessings.

🚨🔴⚫️ BREAKING | AC Milan and Victor #Boniface have reached a full verbal agreement.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen and Milan are in advanced negotiations over a permanent transfer. Igli Tare has submitted an official offer within the last 48 hours. w/ @berger_pj

Leverkusen are currently evaluating the proposal, but the tendency is said to be leaning towards acceptance. Boniface wants to join Milan. Decided.

@SkySportDE 🇳🇬

Lookman really put himself in a no-win situation. Should have made sure Inter were all in for him before taking that drastic action.

Apart from Woods N'Forrest just bought another striker which makes Awoniyi's place more uncertain. Won't be surprised if he goes on loan somewhere else by end of August.

Kog45:
Yes injuries woe,really surprised he got contract extension meaning Nottingham believe in him but if he can get good minutes in half of the season better to go on loan cuz Woods is not stopping now.... sincerely AWO would have been a good assistant for Osimhen but injuries.

Actually if we win all our remaining games in addition to the anticipated points deduction from SA it wouldn't matter what results other teams get because after SA the only other team is ahead by 3 points anyway.

junnyjake:
Our possible qualification does not lie with us winning all of our games, but with the possibility of other teams dropping points as well. Not an optimistic position to be in, honestly.

Anyone have any information on the Nigerian youngster, Ahmed Abdullahi in Sunderland?

How good is he and what are his future prospects?

More clarity of what happened on the flight.

An Eye Witness Account - Ibom Air Flight No. QI 513 from Uyo To Lagos on Sunday 10 August 2025.
So, I was on the now infamous Ibom Air flight from Uyo to Lagos on 10 August 20225 at 1:20pm. I sat on seat 14B, the aisle seat on the left side of the emergency exit row of the Plane. Miss. Emmanson sat across the aisle immediately to my right on the corresponding emergency exit row aisle seat (that should be seat 14C or D depending on how the seats were numbered). Considering it was a small aircraft, it could be said that we sat about two feet apart, so I was privy, first hand, to all that transpired prior to take off, and upon landing until I exited the plane before the entire drama began. I will detail hereunder what transpired, suffice to say, at no time did Miss. Emmanson refuse to switch off her phone for take off.

Disclaimer

It is important to state that prior to meeting Miss. Emmansonon the aircraft by pure happenstance, I had never met her before. She is a complete stranger to me. In the same vein I have never met any of the Ibom Air hostesses before Friday, to the best of my knowledge, and I am only speaking out now out of a moral duty and civic responsibility to speak the truthso that everyone, whether highly placed or not, highly connected or not, can be treated fairly and justly in all circumstances.
I must also state immediately that I do not condone or endorse the acts of violence and disorderliness exhibited by Miss.Emmanson as seen in various videos circulating in the media space. It is not justified.

Unjustified Humiliation and Provocation By Ibom Air Hostess

There were only two air hostesses on the plane which I presume to be as a result of the size of the plane. One of the hostesses approached us and gave us the regular briefing for passengers sitting on the emergency exit. This hostess was exceptionally kind, polite and amiable. I will refer to her henceforth as hostess 1. After the briefing she asked Miss.Emmanson politely twice to switch off her phone. I noticed thereafter that Miss. Emmanson was fiddling with her phone with some uncertainty.
After hostess 1 left to continue her duties, hostess 2 came with an almighty huff and told Miss. Emmanson to switch off her phone with a very high voice. Miss. Emmanson in a low voice tried to explain to hostess 2 that the buttons on her phone for switch off were not working so she did not know how to switch off the phone. Hostess 2 rebuffed her and kept insisting that she switches off the phone. Hostess 2 then told her that the phone she was holding was an iPhone which did not require buttons to switch off. The lady now asked the hostess to assist her switch off the phone and hostess 2 replied “I am not touching your phone”. Hostess 2 now told her to go to settings and from there click on general. The lady now responded in an even lower voice saying “please I cannot read and don’t know what you said I should do. Can you just help me?” Hostess 2 now retorted “Please I don’t have time for your nonsense. Better switch off that phone immediately”.
The gentleman sitting to my left in seat 14A and I were flabbergasted when we heard this and could not believe that an air hostess could speak so condescendingly and unnecessarily humiliate a passenger, perhaps because she was a single female. We then intervened and asked the gentleman sitting next to the lady by the window of her row to assist her. He collected the phone and was assisting her. Miss. Emmanson then started asking hostess 2 if there was anything wrong with being unable to read and why she had to humiliate her like that to the whole public. Hostess 2 now told Miss. Emmanson to keep quiet or else she would deal with her. At this point Miss. Emmanson started cursing and told her she could do nothing to her. Hostess 2 then said “ok, you will see” then she left in a puff and proceeded to the cockpit and never came back.
Some passengers sitting afar who did not know what truly transpired were shouting for Miss. Emmanson to switch offher phone. However, the passenger in seat 14A and I rose up stoutly and defended her and when they heard our explanations they all calmed down and the flight took off.

Airborne
Throughout the flight Miss. Emmason was upset and simmering. She kept on discussing the situation with the gentleman on her right till the plane landed. She was obviously quite annoyed. I also noticed that Hostess 2 kept peeping at our row throughout the flight. She stayed upfront in the plane most of the time if I recollect correctly.
Hostess 1 on the other hand was completely oblivious of the raging storm (at least I thought so) and was kind, polite and professional throughout. Hostess 1 gave extra water to Miss. Emmanson when she asked for it in-flight and also helped her with bringing out and returning her food tray when snacks were served and also as we were approaching landing. Hostess 1 also helped put away some of Miss. Emmansonthings in the cabin above before landing.

Disembarkation
Once the plane landed, the gentleman in seat 14A and I joked that we had better get out quickly before a war breaks out. We both expressed hope that nothing happened as we disembarked. Disembarkation was being done row by row and just before it got to our turn, Miss. Emmanson exited her seat to the back of the plane and I presumed she went to the toilet. We happily disembarked and I forgot all about the spat in the plane until I started seeing all the videos and statements flying unabatedly. I hope the other gentlemen who witnessed this unfortunate incident on row 14 along with me will speak up and corroborate all I have said, which is the truth. I am ready to stand by all I have said here and will be glad to stand as a witness if need be for Miss Emmanson.

Conclusion
1. Miss. Emmanson never at any time refused to switch off her phone for take-off.
2. Hostess 2 acted very poorly and inflamed a rather simple and small matter. And this is putting it mildly.
3. Hostess 1 was exceptional and if she were the one that handled the entire episode, this would not have happened.
4. Ibom Air needs to do better in training their staff to learn to be sensitive and empathetic where necessary.
5. Miss. Emmanson’s reactions, though founded on grave unwarranted humiliation and provocation, has no place in any sane society and should not be encouraged.

Talk now Thegoodjoe go write 10 page thesis of how we suppose play from goal keeper to the midfield then defence splitting pass to Osimhen who will round the opponents goal keeper then lay it to Boniface to just tap in 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank God say I give myself better brain no watch the full match as I see the nonsense they play the first 10-15 minutes.

Have seen many untalented teams in my time but this is up there top 3 worst I've been unfortunate to view.

To be fair from the videos na she first knack the hostess blow. Then the hostess wrongly tore her top subjecting her to indecent exposure 1+1 draw in my opinion.

However in all seriousness the person that posted the video showing showing Comforts "luggage" should still be dealt with.

BlueRayDick:


Not at all.

She obviously can't get justice through the court system, the only way she can be pleased with herself is if she manages to give the air hostess one or two blows here and there.

According to the Civil Aviation Act passengers have to obey the Pilots and crew members instructions regarding switching off of mobile phones. Airplane mode wasn't stated.

You don’t actually have to switch off your phone. Putting it in flight mode is all that is necessary.

Leicester are set to receive €9.5 million. A mutual agreement between the 28 y/o defensive midfielder and the club has been reached.

Contracts are now being checked. Medical is scheduled for Thursday.

Thanks for the great work you do with the highlights my man Basco but I can't in good conscience recommend anyone use their data to watch that nonsense.

Watching a video of paint drying on a wall is more productive.

Yeah I've heard old stories about the airport.

Remember watching the trailer for a British TV documentary about the state of Terminal 1. I think it was during OBJ or Yar Adua's time and they showed a cockroach moving around the counter shame catch me no be small.

OasisX:
......New Terminal is fair but that Terminal 1 eh?! If possible they should demolish it. Once you enter the arrival area, you would feel like crying for the Country.

......from Excalators making silly sound like they are short of oil, moving zigzag like you are arriving a resctricted war zone.

Then to an Area with obsolete cameras to capture you. I swear PBAT Administration has done great job upgrading the Airport. Ojo and Keyamo have done tremendous Jobs!

Left to me, it should be demolished and new one built.

And Inter wants to pay T-fare money for him

Atalanta sef free am na!

BankyGee:
Since joining Atalanta in 2022, only one Serie A player has more G/A than Ademola Lookman.

Top tier 🎯🇳🇬

Serie A is solid platform for Ebenezer. Italians are big on disciplined tactical play which I think will be great for his development.

Injuries have been unfair to Eletu. Hopefully Belgium will revive his career like it did for Osimhen.

Kog45:
Yes Belgian league would have been the best for his development.I don't want Eletu to go Nwakali routes.Good that we are going to see Akinsanmiro in serial A with Pisa but I would have preferred Akinsanmiro in lesser league like Belgium or Holland

Hi great work with the post.

The ladies in the first picture are not Ashleigh's siblings and mom. They are a mixed-race family whose dad and husband is from Kwara. They only traveled to Morocco to support Ashleigh and the Super Falcons. I watched the interview where the family confirmed this.

Kudos for the informative thread.

MagicalConcepts:

Pic 2: Her dad and sister after obtaining the Nigerian passport.
We d still post about Alozie's origin. So the claim by Morocco is false. We believe the Association is up to the task to give a proper response to CAF and to the public.

Atalanta shouldn't act like village people o.

Lookman don try for una let him go.

charlesemeka85:
🔵 Inter president Marotta: “This week will be crucial for Lookman deal”.

“We are in talks for Ademola Lookman, we want him but we also respect Atalanta”.

“In 2-3 days we hope to proceed and be able to get the deal done otherwise we will move on and focus on other players”.
