Glistinin:
This is a hard policy though because, many people won't be able to submit unregistered domains anymore esp those that don't participate in contests (even to get likes in contests is not easy).

I think this is their way of phasing out acceptance of unregistered domains gradually.

I just checked again after they rejected some domains... I was able to submit unregistered domain names without contest loves... I don't know what they are doing.. maybe they haven't made up their minds or people are complaining..

Glistinin:
That's there new submission policy. But funny enough, some accounts can still submit names the old way, though support told me that the policy is for all accounts.

I thought they were targeting me...

meetme01:
SH owned/Unregistered

No coin

when I tried to submit it was giving error notice.

meetme01:
I just submitted few now..

did you submit with coins or SH owned

let me edit my post to say SH owned

Truidstar:
All this Nwakali talk will soon die
. Eze is coming. You heard it here first.

Eze plays LCM while Nwakali plays RCM... they can complement each other in the same starting 11..

Sq:uadHelp says you can no longer submit unregistered names for SH to buy and own unless they have a contest love... when did this start

Atarakpa:
This guys are not Nigerians

you have made the smartest comment so far on this thread...

Now if they are not Nigerians like you say.. then who are they?

Starboytwo:
was not a dive tho, it was just pure sense from debryune. The defender was just not very smart.

It was a dive... A very clear dive...

for like 2 years, they have started giving penalties for players diving as long as there's contact even if its very minimal contact....

BannedLarge:
If Aribo isn’t a midfielder, what is he

BannedLarge:
The same agents will rather they should call a division 2 jibola ahead of a premier league Aribo.

Aribo is a LW or SS not a midfielder..

Attackers like Moffi and Osimhen need players like Iwobi and Nwakali and Peter Olayinka around them... those are players that play through pass often... you can't have pacy strikers then put players that don't play through pass in midfield..

AndSunGorilla:
Uncle, Tijani is injured, Eze and Olise have not yet decided to play for us. And Aribo is definitely a midfielder just not a DM.

I know Tijani is injured, I'm just listing midfielders apart from those 6 that are eligible and ineligible to play for Super Eagles.. I'm writing it that to remember the midfielders available..

I even forgot to add Bonke..

AndSunGorilla:
5 midfielders in a 23 man squad isn't bad sir. The mighty Brazil are only going with 6 middies out of 26 to the world cup.

We need pure midfielders not midfielders that will leave the defense hanging.

Aribo is not a midfielder.

Nwakali
Alhassan-yusuf
Iwobi
Onyeka
Onyedika
Ndidi

The above should be the midfield 6. Can also add:
Bonke
Tijani
Etebo
Kingsley Michael
Eze
Olise

babajero:
I thought I was arguing with a normal person, now I know you are deranged.

I was the one that stooped so low to educate you.

You're a mental institution fugitive.

babajero:
I will ask you again, have you heard about Aburi Accord held in Ghana and what transpired after the Accord? What greed are you really talking about, the East controlled everything. it was the envy of the south west and the greed of Awolowo that started the war, the same greed Tinubu is exhibiting today that may likely kill him or plunge Yorubas into dire consequences.

babajero:
Tell me the richest region and tell me in what aspects that made them the richest.

SW had and still have nothing to envy in the Igbos.. the first school, first University , first radio station , first t.v station , biggest cocoa plantation, biggest cassava plantation , biggest okro plantation, biggest banana plantation, biggest plantains plantation e.t.c.

babajero:
The Eastern region was the richest region.

If the Eastern region was the richest region then the Eastern leaders would have never started a coup and a war...

babajero:
So what you are trying to say is that the British created the Arabs and the fulanis?

Please be teaching Yoruba people history, they will really love your kind of history.

A:rabs are descendants of eu:ropeans..

Wasn't it the Br:itish that moved to the A:merican continent and started calling themselves ame:ricans

Didn't the du:tch also move to southern Africa and started calling themselves Afrikaans

babajero:
Your forefathers started fighting the Igbos even before the actual war began. What do you think started the war? Have you ever heard about the Aburi Accord? Awolowo was the main cause of the war in case you don't know.

The war was meant be north vs Igbo war but the Ig:bos decided to attack the SW... Igbos and the north had been fighting since the 1940s.

Igbos were been in the north in the 1950s.. no Igbo person was killed in the SW.

Awolowo was not the cause of the war.. Igbo greed and covetous nature of what is not theirs was the cause of the war.

babajero:
All this your tribalistic history will not help you. The fulanis have already conquered Kwara before proceeding to Oyo, there is nothing like the British handed it over to them, the greed and stupidity of Yorubas handed it over to them.

In the case of hausas it was their shortsightedness that affected them, because the fulanis entered Hausa land as friends, merchants and saints but the hausas didn't know that the devil came disguised in human form, before they realised it they have already infiltrated their people. That was even before the colonization of Nigeria by the British

Kwara is upper Oyo..

Hundreds of years before Fulani invaded hausa empire the Fulani were in northern Africa but eu:ropeans using the name "ar;abs" invaded northern Africa killed off the indigenes and enslaved and isla:mized the remaining.

In summary,
Fulanis are descendants of Ara:b/Eur:opean slavery from North Africa who were trained to wage war against the rest of Africa especially west Africa..
So yes the Bri:tish hands things to them.

babajero:
Was that the narrative your father or your elders gave you? How many federal government job existed in regional system of government that will make another region take over another region through federal government jobs.

Azikiwe wanted to be the premier because he was at the forefront of Nigeria gaining independence. The Eastern region was the richest region, the East controlled all the natural resources right from the time of coal, the only relevance the Western region have then was that the capital territory was located in Lagos and it was the seat of power. Do you think your forefathers were fools when they fought tooth and nail to prevent the East from seceding? The western region would have been a waste land if Igbos seceded, moreover the Igbos never wanted to secede, all the Igbos wanted was to practice an autonomous government with an aboriginal constitution that will make the eastern region develop at its own pace.

forefathers fought the Igbos because the Igbos were attacking Ore.. they didn't fight to prevent the Igbos from seceding.

Igbos wanted complete control of all regions in Nigeria they never wanted a separate country..

Eastern region was already developing at their own pace during regionalism.

babajero:
Support the north in what aspect, support the north as in the fulanis or the north as in the hausas. because as it is now the foreign countries have long labelled the fulani ethnic group as a terrorist organisation.

Support the fulanis... they supported fulani conquest of the Hausa empire and also supported the fulani against the Oyo empire but the Oyo empire fought back and killed thousands of them before the br:itish called for a peace agreement where the br:itish handed Kwara to the fulani despite the Yo:rubas killing them and chasing them out and even destroying the bridge that connected Kwara to the north.

lereinter:
Hope you know your own problem too.

So it's the north that is building dangote refinery

Any doc to back it up

Why don't you say the just launched pinnacle depot in Lagos is built by the se.

Now you're getting the point

due to pin:nacle depot been in Lagos there is a possibility of it having Yoruba employees... same with Da:ngote's refinery..

the owner of the business decides who to employ and employment is empowerment... and most employers will employ people that are the same ethnicity as them...

those businesses da:ngote refinery and Pin:nacle depot will definitely have more non-Yorubas in their employment...

that is why ownership is important...

OceanRed:
you are totally wrong, your assertion reek of support for the north inspite of other regions!
with regional government ,all region will be productive in their own way same as it was post independent
the north used to be very productive in those days, with lot of agricultural resources and output, the land they used for farming then is still available today, how about their abundant mineral resources? go to dutsinma and jibya in katsina state, then you will know how much the north is blessed with mineral resources not to mention zamfara and host of other states with resources.

jasonex4:
What now stops the north from focusing and commercialising their own natural and agricultural resources??

babajero:
Please can you tell me the main financial sustainability of Nigeria before oil, what happened to the groundnut pyramids that existed before oil? Let's just be sincere if we continue like this, the north will remain lazy and their main target and job will be just to over populate the country to win elections. Why buhari can't account for the billions of dollars he has borrowed is because he has used more than half to feed and pamper the over population in the north with no economic benefits.

Northern Nigeria has never ever been productive don't let them deceive with pyramid story..

If north was productive then the br:itish won't have amalgamated north and south Nigeria in 1914.. It was because the north was poor they joined it with southern Nigeria..

If Nigeria practices the regionalism you guys want then northern Nigeria will be in very extreme poverty... that's why they are land grabbing and killing the indigenes and also supporting a northern man to build and own a refinery and do other things they can to capture and steal and hold onto the wealth of southern Nigeria...

hedonido is right..

gidgiddy:
You dont have to listen to me or anyone, use google and verify. But you can look at the first page of Gowons decree 14 below to see how he abolished all 4 Regions and created 12 states

In a fictional story, Lets say you own a business and your business has 4 buildings and each building represent a sector of your business and are in the same compound...

there are 3 leaders - leader A ( original system ) , leader B ( Ironsi ) , leader C ( Gowon )...

during leader A tenure your business was making $900m per year..

but leader B did a coup and killed leader A then leader B creates a law that says 96% of your revenue should go to him while you keep 4% ( $36m per year ) then leader C also does a coup and kills leader B then leader C create a law that maintains that 96% of your revenue should go to him and your company is now divided into different sectors ( manufacturing sector, finance sector, marketing sector. I.T sector ) but your company will remain in the same compound..

Now under which leader did you make the most revenue and have more independence

babajero:
It may not happen because of the greedy people we have in the south, if all the southerners come together and say they want something the north can't do anything. The north don't have any power if not for the greedy saboteurs we have in the south, because as it is now, many of the indigenous people in the north have risen up against the usurpers called fulani, all we need to do is to replicate same in the south and chase them out of Nigeria and completely out of our political domain.

Your problem is you are limiting yourself to the north..

Your problem is thinking the U:K and somr other foreign countries won't support the north. They were the ones who joined north and south Nigeria due to the balance of trade losses northern Nigeria was making..

gidgiddy:
Lol

Ironsi was actually the only Nigerian military head of state who did not touch resource control, not even for one day

Ironsi's only budget of January 1966, which can be found online, was based on the 4 Regions controlling their resources, and paying tax to the government

It was Gowons decree 14 that abolished the 4 Regions, replaced them with 12 states, and stated that the Federal had to take over resources so as to ensure the survival of the 12 new states

Thats how resource control died.

ElSudani has already answered you so it's pointless replying you but any thread I see you spreading these same lies I will call you out.

gidgiddy:
How did Ironsi manage to do this if the 4 Regions that were there the day he took over, were still there the day he was killed?

gidgiddy:
Rather than believe what you were told, use google and find Gowons decree 14, where he abolished all 4 Regions and created 12 states

Ironsi made it that the regions no longer controlled their resources and their revenue which means the regions became subservient to the FG.

gidgiddy:
You need to Google what was agreed at Aburi to know that is not true. Ojukwu actually wanted the highest ranking officer at the time, Brigadier Ogundipe, a Yoruba man, to take over, as military tradition recommends.

At Aburi, Ojukwu agreed that Gowon, who was at the time junior to several officers, including Ojukwu, should become head of State as long as Nigeria was run as a confederation until the return of civilian rule.

Gowon returned to Nigeria, turned his back on the Aburi agreement he signed in Ghana, and to add insult to injury, announced Decree 14, which abolished all 4 Regions all together, replaced them with 12 brand new states, half of which was allocated to the North, took away resource control and fiscal federalism

Ojukwu was left with no choice but to declare Biafra

Aburi is one of the major reasons they will never teach Nigerian history in schools, they dont want people to know the truth

Again with this usual lies you keep repeating.

It was Ironsi an Igbo man that abolished regionalism by creating a unitary government..

Your lies will never become truth..

gidgiddy:
You dont get it, the current system gives the North an edge over the South.

The current system was created by Ironsi ( the Ig:bos ) to favour the Igbos but it back fired and now favors the north and the U:K...

So stop crying for what your ancestors caused and started...

babajero:
Do you you know that the laxity in the northern part of Nigeria almost in every spheres of life, is due to the system of government practiced in Nigeria and the written contents in what we call a constitution?
Or do you think the over population and low concern for education in the north will exist that much if quota system was not enshrined in the rubbish called constitution?
Do you think the north will feel so aloof if the resources generated in the south is spent to develop the south instead of the north?
Do you think the north will like WAEC and NECO to put the cut off marks of South at 200 and something and that of the north at 10 and below if Nigeria is practising regional system of government?

Whether people like you like it or not, the type of government practiced in Nigeria and the written paper called constitution is the real bane of Nigerian development. Nigeria needs to go back to regional government with an aboriginal constitution attested to by the indigenous people, and watch how every regions will be competing to out develop each other

Your problem is you think the regions will be competing to out develop each other..

Why compete when they can use violence to illegally take over a region.

When Nigeria practiced regionalism the Ig:bos through the prime minister Azikwe gave every federal government jobs in every region to the Igbos and that's why there's a video of the then premier of northern Nigeria warning about the Igbos and an audio of Akintola also warning about the Igbos.

And Azikwe still wanted to be premier of the western region just because at that time the western region was the richest region. They were jealous of the western region.

gidgiddy:
It was the abolishment of the 4 Regions by Gowon, and breaking of the confederation agreed at Aburi, that forced Ojukwu to declare Biafra, and Gowon to declare war

In other words, confederation was never the problem, the problem was those who did not want confederation

You again.

You've come with your fake and false version of history.

Ojukwu declared Biafra because the Ig:bos through Ironsi had control of Nigeria was killed and that meant Ig:bos no longer controlled Nigeria and it's resources and so Ojukwu decided to try to take over Nigeria again using Biafra..

telleyway:
This is what they want you to believe, North is rich in mineral resources, vast land for agriculture and skillful youths for wealth creation.
Before the discovery of crude oil, Nigeria economy was doing well with Cocoa and groundnut. Today, most of the tomatoes �, onions �, etc are mostly coming from north... And the list continues.
Today gold � in zamfara is not going to the federation account but oil in the south is the national cake �.
The problem is north runs a system that favours a few people, that's why even though most richest in this country, the poorest also comes from there.

If today Nigeria decided to go to regional government, it will only take a few years and north will be on top again.

ElSudani:
The north is sitting on resources more valuable than crude oil. Agriculture alone can transform the north to one of the richest parts of Africa, not just Nigeria.
This unitary system doesn't encourage states to look inwards, generate their own income and pull their people out of poverty.

Northern Nigeria can never ever surpass Southern Nigeria and that's the main reason the Br:itish amalgamated and joined north and south Nigeria in 1914 due to the north having a terrible deficit in balance of trade.

lereinter:
Yes I believe in regions ran govt

And I think there's something sinister about nigeria not having a functional refinery

Maybe there's an unwritten rule about the year nig must have a refinery

You have a problem.. your problem is you think in terms of Nigeria..

it's not about Nigeria not having a refinery it's about an individual , a state , group of states, group of private companies , group of people e.t.c building and owning a refinery..

Thats one of the reasons the north is building a refinery through dang:ote.

Lagos ogun and all the SW states could have come together and contributed to build a refinery since all these years..

Same thing for the SE and SS they could have come together to build anything they want.

The Eastern region ( the Igbos ) would have had one of the biggest oil companies in the world if they had built an oil company instead of trying to take over Nigeria through war.

benjaminlawson:
My problem with some of us in this forum that are saying the north will not accept. Does that mean that we have made the north to be superior to the south? Or a tribe to dominate about other 300 tribes? Let us leave this nonsense and face the reality, Nigeria belong to us all, and inability to make all tribes equal will always lead to agitation. After all, those who claimed to be superior do not have anything to show for it, and in an ideal situation, those with economic power must dictate the pace.

It means that the north will not accept it and one of the only ways the south can restructure is to declare war on northern Nigeria and that will lead to another civil war.

The other way the south either SW SS SE can restructure is to create a company that will be buying all the oil blocks when it's time to bid and also buy the airports seaports railways in the south.
In summary, either SW SS SE has to do what China is doing..
