On the contrary, I am impressed with their performance. But they need more work on their finishing and decisions making. But the game play is qood...

So many people fussing over a young team showing their naivety and youthful exuberance. Both teams played an open game like is often seen at this level. They will grow and they will learn.

Yabariki:
How many Episodes of "show of shame by the judiciary" have been released since the resumption of Democracy in Nigeria.

Don't know the exact number of episodes, but this is Season 6 sha.

chriskosherbal:
Can we please know the names of the firms and what they are producing as this will go a long way in getting a good understanding of the issue at hand.

What they are importing you mean.

Some of my top most heartbreaking moment in football.

USA 1994: NIGERIA VS ITALY
Just as discussed on a thread here yesterday, Roberto Baggio gave me heart attack that day which took few days before i could recover.

Ghana/Nigeria 2000( Cup of Nation ) : CAMEROUN VS NIERIA .... FINAL
Immediately Victor Ikpeba penalty was disallow my BP nearly cut, it was a very sad Sunday evening.

SYDNEY 2000 ( OLYMPIC FOOTBALL GAME )
Nigeria Vs Chile
This particular match every Nigeria sport papers tagged Agali vs Zamarano Victor Agali was our Ahmed Musa of that tournament Chile beat us like small pickin and i cannot forget that morning.

Trinidad and Tobago 2001 ( FIFA U-17 )

One of the best Nigeria outing in junior level. This tournament produce Nigeria player like Femi Opabunmi, Temile, Sambo and co Due to time difference, every match for this tournament is midnight Nigeria time. Chai, futbol don suffer me
Our opening match was against France which we won but they revenge for Final whooping us 3-0.

Sinama-Pongole and Le Tallec those boys shows us pepper that midnight.

Korea/Japan 2002 ( Fifa world cup )
Nigeria vs Sweden

Our darling Super Eagle needed that match so badly as second match of the tournament after we have lost first game to Argentina. We started the match well, with brilliant performance but last last Henrik Larssen do us strong thing. To go school that day na war

Your head dey there. But for me there was only one. Our loss to Italy at USA 94. That night I cried ehn. Since then, never again. No matter how painful, I get over it immediately.

And for all those who like to ask "Where is Chrisantus? Where is Rabiu Ibrahim?" Sinama Pongolle and Anthony Le Tellec were stars for France at U17 o. Liverpool even signed them. Byt they never progressed to become stars at senior level. I always say it's not peculiar to Nigeria, and it is not always down to being over-aged.

RTSC:
Your head is not alright.

You think you are winning.? You are only doing yourself.

In five years time, these same boys you are walloping today will destroy your super eagles at the Senior world cup.

Your assertion is kinda faulty though. And this is because the make up the senior team of these countries will not be exactly the same in five years time for several reasons. One being that, not every player who shines at U17 will develop to the senior team whether real age or over aged.
Examples of this abound in every country.

emsco:
Our youth team do well in underage competitions but find it hard to replicate in the senior level.
Five years from now, we won't see most of these guys if not all in football world again. What could be the reason?

This is not peculiar to Nigeria. People are always quick to mention Toni Kroos. But how many of his U17 teammates went on to play for Germany at senior level? Truth is, most U17 teams produce between 1-3 players who go on to excel for their country at senior level. The rest just disappear into their local or foreign leagues.

alphaNomega:
Who trimms the lawn on the other half?

Border police.

These two groups are part of our problems in this country.

Bioboy1213:
see this

This house sits on a US-Canada border with a door that leads into Canada and must always be bolted.

emmabest2000:
Here you gooooooooo

Thank you jare. Just last week, it was reported that a British family "mistakingly" drove across the US border with Canada. Not all border points are big structures. Sometimes it's just a line.

Copy of the mail that I sent to NBC and APCON.

I would advise that you download the MyDstv app to check how much was credited to your account. They will most likely not refund your cash but should credit it against your next subscription, and you'll just pay the balanc to make 6,800. Something like that happened to me.

EzekaUdenee:

Oga most of the position you mentioned can be easily converted

for example

a full back with speed can easily be converted to a winger
that's how mangers who play 3 man defense cope

likewise a strong attacking midfielder can be easily converted into a defensive midfielder
because it only takes strength to play in such position
moreover a good striker can easily play in wing positions
only a lazy striker can't play as a winger
strikers like aguero, suarez, firmino, jesus can play from the wing.

talk about those that where entirely converted from their position
for example Pep converted Aleksandro zinchenko from attacking midfielder to a full back

Tell that to the Pogba fan boys who insist he can only perform on the left of a 3-man midfield like he did at Juventus.

Jodera:
What you said is true tho. From what you just said and from peoples' reactions to op, you'll find out that Nigerians lack patience. Lol. What you did ought to be the normal thing what others suppose to do too, I mean, you've started it, why not finish before attacking someone. But they just read the first line and gbam...attack!!.
The mistake the op made was to make that statement of disproving an existing misconception which he didn't do(like you pointed out), and that's where everything started from.

Too many angry people on these streets in this economy. Most Nigerians have no chill.

Jodera:
Gosh! I'm truly amazed. The fact that above 80% of people who commented here actually criticized the op really means they never truly read it from beginning to the end. Nigerians and no-reading culture is what will finally finish us in this country. Some are attacking the op, some are insulting him, all because they didn't read to the end, perhaps, just headlines and the first two paragraphs. It's really pathetic.
To those that didn't read, I sorry for una!!

I can't entirely blame them. The initial examples were not exactly contradictory, especially when you understand the context in which Jesus and Paul spoke. Even I was beginning to get irritated by the write up, but decided to see what the OP planned to end his analysis with, and then realized what he was actually trying to achieve.

I think it would have helped if he had stated somewhere at the beginning that his aim was trying to disprove an existing misconception. Just like you would do when writing a project or term paper. People get very sensitive when it comes to matters of their fate, and it seemed the OP was trying to create contradictions were many people didn't see any.

unstoppable51:
A Closer Look At The Words Of Jesus & The Pauline Revelations (Epistles) From FeedMeJesus.com

Looking at the teachings of Jesus in the four Gospels (the books: Matthew, Mark, Luke & John), there seems to be a very wide gap between what Jesus taught and what we see apostle Paul teach in his epistles.

To truly understand why Paul wrote the things he did, we need to first of all understand that the Bible is a book of progressive revelation which was never complete until the very last book. That means until we have read it through to the very last book and gotten witnesses from its numerous authors, we cannot turn “a statement” in it into a basis for Faith, a doctrine.

This is because the book was written in such a way that you will find the explanation and confirmations of the things you read as you proceed to the very end. So taking a statement from Jesus in the book of Matthew alone and establishing it as a doctrine will not be the best thing to do until you have read through the other books.

I hope this blesses you. Now lift your hands to the Father and thank Him for the entire revelation of His Word, His Son, to us.

Glory to Jesus our King eternal.

It might help if you edit your post and add a line at the beginning stating that you plan to show that the teachings of Jesus and Paul are not contradictory as thought by some. It's a long post and the examples given at the start are actually somewhat annoying, and may deter people from reading further without getting your true intentions. This explains the reaction of many.

Ogbonna, do you have a phone number, I'd like to Call you to clarify some things regarding people that have not enrolled before but are having issues with the date of birth on the bvn

Sorry, mistaken identity.

lovethchioma:
CBN planning to charge people for depositing or withdrawing monies upto 500,000 over the counter because they want to encourage cashless policy.

Meanwhile Mr. Fowler is already negotiating with banks on how everyone would have to pay Vat for every transactions done online; of course they already have legal backing.



You see, either way, we are stuck...
These people mean no good for her citizens, I guarantee you. Always looking for ways to make things difficult than it is already for people.

Legal backing from where? Has the Senate approved Fowler's proposal?

Iamgrey5:
The Judgement is very logical and grounded in the constitution sofar.


The judge also took his time to explain and made reference to past judgement.

Regardless of the outcome, I think everyone will agree that the judgement was not partial in anyway.

I'll eat my socks if everyone agrees it was not partial. In a country where most don't read, or can't read with understanding, it ain't gonna happen. Not to mention the partisan lot who have already chosen sides and can't be swayed by logic.

Neoteny:
I don't know who the blazes this dude is but I give him credit for remembering the late great Abacha...a great leader demonized by the South West media rags on behalf of Nadeco.

He was 6 years old when Abacha died, so I doubt that his recollection is his. And it wasn't the South West media that killed Ken Saro Wiwa, Pa Alfred Rewane or Kudirat Abiola.

Apart from pulling out of Afcon 1996, I don't remember Abacha sending away the South African ambassador at the time, nor any ambassador of the many countries that constantly criticized his regime. Ah, well.

Goldicon2:
Lol their head no touch 2times make them attack embassy.

It won't be the first time an embassy will be attacked brother. US embassies are about the most attacked embassies in the world. Mad people don't reason logically.

Goldicon2:
they will accommodate everyone, do you have any idea how many rooms embassies are built to have ? Abi you won dy give them one room each? No matter how tight it gets e go accommodate them because you fit tell me say AC no dy there. 10 boys dy sleep for bed sitter and kor big embassy nahm no fit accommodate people ? Abi did you read that it was the whole Nigerians in SA that ran their? So why them no fit accommodate the ones that ran there for refuge.

Even if they can accommodate them, do they also have enough security personnel to protect them? The last thing you want is hundreds of Nigerian citizens situated in one location like sitting ducks without adequate protection if the mad xenophobic folks decide to attack. The SA police have clearly shown that they are not capable or willing to protect them.

Did you even read the article? Except you are being sarcastic.

Kenturkey048:
If I was close to you....I for flex you dis morning for this reasonable response...I don't know you...but am assured,you are from cthe descendant of king Solomon.

It's the thought that counts brother.

Nobodyperson:
Just watch as deranged Nigerians start to support the homophobic attacks and they will later wonder why Nigeria isn't going forward.

Why not address the "deranged" French people who carried out the attacks first? Are they the reason why France isn't going forward?

Just a thought.

ZWorld:
Just when you thought you've seen it all and then his one shows up.

In a video we have been furnished with, five prison inmates can be seen pushing a spoilt train on a railway in Ibadan.

Definitely this is another height of complexity in our system.


Watch the video
https://zenithnaija.com/people-seen-pushing-a-spoilt-train-on-ibadan-railway-photos/

What manner of joblessness is this? Does that look like a functional carriage that has been used anytime recently. Do we know why it is being pushed or where it is being pushed to? Yet many have already burst into lamentations. Seems we just like unnecessary sensationalism all for the clicks and traffic.

biolaowo:
This is dugbe in ibadan. These are not prisoners, they are technicians working on how to remove old trains
I saw them few days ago

Thank you. At least someone with some insight. There should be easier ways to clear the tracks of old trains though.

FarahAideed:
Oh brother please don't do this na

Have I lied? I'm not saying Fashola has done an excellent job. However, I will also be uncharitable to imply that he did nothing. Truth is the problems with our power value chain is multi-dimensional, from generation to transmission to distribution. Not everything is tied to the FG.

ithink7:
So Kyari is now Buhari's manager abi, cos Buhari is a vegetable and cannot take report from his ministers.
Be defending nonsense.

If only some of you will use Google app on your phone with the same frequency you use Nairaland.

The title chief of staff (or head of staff) identifies the leader of a complex organization, institution, or body of persons and it also may identify a principal staff officer (PSO), who is the coordinator of the supporting staff or a primary aide-de-camp to an important individual, such as a president, or a senior military officer, or leader of a large organization.

In general, a chief of staff provides a buffer between a chief executive and that executive's direct-reporting team. The chief of staff generally works behind the scenes to solve problems, mediate disputes, and deal with issues before they are brought to the chief executive. Often chiefs of staff act as a confidante and advisor to the chief executive, acting as a sounding board for ideas. Ultimately the actual duties depend on the position and the people involved.

Go and watch Netflix's House of Cards and understand the role a Chief of Staff plays better.

Joystark:
Even I do not understand the reason for the jabs and I'm not even a supporter of this government.

Isn't this supposed to be one of the duties of the chief of staff?
I saw House of Cards and I think it somewhat seemed like it.
So I don't understand?

God bless you. Sometimes we fight the wrong things. Rather than demanding accountability and efficiency, some people are arguing ignorantly over what is the norm in every sane society

ivandragon:
What's all the brouhaha about the PMB saying his CoS should manage request from ministers to see him?

It's totally normal. The only justification for people to have reservations is that Kyari is not exactly Mr. Clean & may have ulterior agendas. Aside that, all the noise is just a storm in a tea cup...

Unfortunately, many people do not understand what the job of a Chief of Staff is.

FarahAideed:
Shut up and show me one power plant Fashola delivered that improved electricity Generation or is he producing electricity from the Air ..please go to the NERC website and see daily transmission figures and you will see no single improvment since 2015

I don't know about surpassing any other minister, but you also know that power generation is not only about on-grid power alone. There are a lot of off-grid power solutions that are being put in place through the Rural Electrification agency. Off-grid power is being provided for federal universities, teaching hospitals, markets etc. The power sector has been unbundled giving room for alternative power generating options. Independent Power Projects are ongoing.
