Precious things are for those that can prize them undecided
PoliticsRe: Photos From The Federal Executive Council Meeting Today by connectikut89(m):
Maybe I'm wrong but Labaran Maku used to kinda hold a press briefing immediately after every cabinet meeting just to ensure we were kept abreast of latest developments and what to expect in the near future. wink

I can't say the same for Oga Lai Moh'd. We need to know, as a matter of urgency, whatever you guys discussed today and now b4 you go and garnish it now for us tomorrow tongue

Maybe he's even better off "quiet". I guess we all know his antecedents by now grin

How do these celebrities even keep up?. She has not acted any movie in a while I guess. undecided

One was asked the other day why she had so many pictures on Instagram nd her reply was "that's all we do these days" huh

They spoil these people too much. Little wonder teenagers would rather wanna be actors or artistes or "bloggers" instead of going to school.

Supporters of this government jst neva fail to mention Dasuki's name in every topical issue like it's one big feat for dis govt dat he's being tried for corruption.

Like what has a wild goose chase project up north got to do with an ongoing corruption trial? How are they even related? Later u'll call us wailers. Let the EFCC and the courts do their job and prosecute whoever is found guilty. Meanwhile he is still innocent until proven guilty. tongue

Face the issues with valid arguments and stop attacking the "wrong" strawman

PoliticsRe: Fashola Visits Egbin Power Plant,Says Government Will 'Settle Its Debts'(photos) by connectikut89(m):
First he says that govt will "settle its debts" and later says that the "power ministry is not owing" huh Is his ministry not a part of the govt?

Fashola I think was one of the best performing governors of the last administration.

He has a lot of goodwill going for him even though I think he's grossly overhyped. tongue

Fashola said, “President Goodluck Jonathan said he constructed 25,000 kilometres roads in the country. Now, the distance from Lagos to London is just over 5,000km. What the claim by the President means is that they have constructed a road from Lagos to London five times. But the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway that is 404km and has not been done. So where did they see the 25,000km roads?" He compared air miles to road miles. He goofed all in the name of political sideswiping.

I hope he succeeds tho. I wish him well. cool

6. "When someone rips out the pages of a book. How is the book supposed to make any sense when there are missing pages in it?" (Trish Welsh)

SportsWhat The Greats Said About Zinedine Zidane by connectikut89(op): 8:19pm On Nov 13, 2014
Source: Goal.com

The former Juventus and Real Madrid
playmaker has been inducted into the
Goal Hall of Fame and some of football's greats have discussed what makes him such an icon.

"He'd go past one, two, three, five, six
players - it was sublime. His feet spoke
with the ball."
JEAN VARRAUD, WHO DISCOVERED
ZIDANE

"Zidane is the master."
PELE

"He is from another planet. When Zidane stepped onto the pitch, the 10 other guys got suddenly better. It is that simple."
ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC

"The greatest player of the last 20 years? It has to be Zidane. He had everything. You never needed to tell him anything as he did it all by himself and knew what was expected."
MARCELLO LIPPI

"I would give up five players to have Zidane in my squad."
FORMER ITALY COACH CESARE MALDINI

"Technically, I think he is king of what's
fundamental in the game - control and passing. I don't think anyone can match him when it comes to controlling and receiving the ball."
MICHEL PLATINI

"You look at Zidane and think 'I've never seen a player quite like that'. Diego Maradona was a great player. Johan Cruyff was a great player. They were different - but with similarities. What sets Zidane apart is the way he manipulates a football, buying himself space that isn't there. Add his vision and it makes him very special."
KEVIN KEEGAN

"He thinks in one second and does it in
the next. He is a special player, one who is original and exceptional. He creates space where there is none. Only the very best players can do that. No matter where he gets the ball or how it comes to him, Zidane can get out of trouble. His imagination and his technique are amazing."
EDGAR DAVIDS

"He dominates the ball. He is a walking spectacle and he plays as if he has silk gloves on each foot. He makes it worthwhile going to the stadium - he's one of the best players I have ever seen."
ALFREDO DI STEFANO

"I have always admired Zidane. In fact, I have one of his shirts in my closet. We exchanged shirts after a Juventus-Perugia game."
MARCO MATERAZZI

"You are a virtuoso, a genius of world
football. You are also a man of heart, of commitment, of conviction - and that's why France admires and loves you."
FORMER FRENCH PRESIDENT, JACQUES
CHIRAC

"Nobody knows if Zidane is an angel or a demon. He smiles like Saint Teresa and grimaces like a serial killer."
FRENCH SINGER-SONGWRITER JEAN-
LOUIS MURAT

"Zidane cost €73 million and that was
cheap."
FLORENTINO PEREZ

"Zidane's goal in the club's ninth Champions League win was the goal of a genius, an artist, but I still replay some of his moves in my head. He represents the elegance of a simple hero for Real Madrid."
FLORENTINO PEREZ

SportsRe: Super Eagles Can Still Qualify For Morocco 2015 by connectikut89(m): 6:20am On Oct 16, 2014
CFCfan:
Nigeria could qualify as the best thrid-placed team across the groups. However, in the end, 10 points may not be enough.
We could still claim 2nd place in the huh group if we win SA and then win Congo by a two-goal margin at least so that even if Congo wins Sudan we'll both be on 10pts but we would have the advantage of the head-to-head rule? You guyz avnt 4gotn dat rule, have you? huh
