Chuksemi, grin why didn't you submit this piece for my previewing prowess before publishing, ehn? grin



Well, you should have instigated a fake fasting and prayer that only ends at 6pm.



You didn't add that these set of people sleep as if they own the bed. you wake to see their legs on your head, their hands on you 3rd leg or you on the floor. Amaka sef serves him the food she cooks when you no get. hehehhe



He and landlord discuss passionate(in Falz voice) passionate politics and he can't but loff yim. One of the best way is to make an elderly that resembles Cuba Okadigbo or Olu Jacobs to come visit you and query his presence..... ah that makes three in a room? grin grin


(in Falz voice, Basketmouth's uncertainty expression, Bovi's stupid look and Klint da drunk's 'use style Waka comot' pose) This case is a circular cyclical

NFF eo bunch of empty barrels. Adekunle Gold's Ariwo Ko is meant for them and not o.b.o.



These bunchsters think satisfaction is only one way. they always remember the contract details when the other side reacts to their already evil actions. By then, the painting would rival picasso's when presented to the world.


That sole voice talking should come out with his name and stop using NFF as a side armor.


What concerns me with not qualifying when it would go down in history as NFF not doing a job welldone?


That Glass house is just waiting to be shatter by the efforts of a small stone thrown by a small child seriously.


The fact that the govt itself don't always put nose in their matter proves that they are the ones behind the problem.


They want to start with Siasia. Why employ him if his past records were an ultimatum?


These Bunchsters definitely are wasting cash on that advantageous lawyer that's tryna give them hope....


"From the Days of Galadima to the very cloth used for Pinnick, never has the Nigeria populace seen such gargantuan irresponsibility by a body meant for sports."

That's not true. You've mentioned government schools, so I'll skip those.

1) Missionary schools originally had the biggest grounds of all schools in Lagos. Remember that the philosophy of the missionaries was "A sound mind in a sound body", so sports was very important to them. Some of the missionary schools lost their large grounds to the "Jakande policy", while others were able to retain them.

I knew Father Dennis Slattery, who started St Finbarr's College, personally and I know how crazy he was about football (he was once a nigerian football referee and chairman of the NFA, despite the fact that he was irish). So, of course, St Finbarr's College had a large football field. Thankfully they did not lose it to the "Jakande policy". The field was badly maintained though (it became a sand pit) and part of the land became part of what I call the "Akoka Forest".

St Gregory's College has a football field, a rugby field, an athletics track, a basketball court, a tennis court and a handball court. Thankfully they did not lose these facilities to the "Jakande policy", but they were badly maintained during the government era. They did lose their swimming pool though. I hear that the missionaries are renovating all the sports facilities at the school.

Igbobi College had huge grounds that included a football field, a cricket pitch and a basketball court. Unfortunately they lost a large chunk of their land to the "Jakande policy". He built several schools on their football field (one of them is called Morocco School).

Holy Child College has a netball and basketball court.

Most of the missionary schools (especially the ones that were able to retain their land during the Jakande policy) have sports facilities.


2) The newer private schools (non-missionary) are even more impressive.

Atlantic Hall, Epe has a football field, two tennis courts and a swimming pool.

Greensprings Lekki has a football field, athletics track, two basketball courts, 3 or 4 tennis courts and a swimming pool. They have a very impressive sports programme. Kanu Nwankwo runs a football clinic there, they have a british football coach and they take part in a youth football tournament in britain every year (they've won it a few times). They also recently won the GTBank Masters Cup.


American International School Lekki has a football field, indoor basketball court, swimming pool and baseball diamond.

In fact, it's the state government schools that usually do not have space for sports facilities and the state government has the greatest number of schools in Lagos.

amaechi1:
I have said it and I will continue to stress it, people should appreciate peace and avoid getting into things that will cause breakdown of law and order. I watch the young man who named his dog buhari and he claimed that buhari is one of his role model. I simple ask what about his father or any other kinmen? Would it be more better if he hadname the dog after his father or mother to futher express his love for his parents. Are they not his role model? Heating up the area all in the name of freedom of speech is stupidity in the highest order. He should thank his star that he still alive to narrate the story.
Only an excuse I read all thru.... (in Falz voice) Is this a military regime?

Noticed how schools today lack sport facilities? The education board should make this mandatory.
Only Grammar and public schools boast of at least a large space called football field.

Naptu2, you did a great job here at least two-way; to relief Rio-pain(real pain) and at the same time cause pain for what we aren't having again based on what we've had before, i.e The best.


If Buhari can just reignite sports at secondary school level with full focus on its success, he'll be a hero asap.


I don't even know how and when we began to ignore this system and began to look for scrap. But will PMB even think of seeing a ball roll on tv(i don't think so).


Had a guy we called Crespo cos he played like him, the guy came close to a national shirt, but was dropped for one of the 'guys' of those big men in politics.


See how that Okagbare story didn't see the light of the day. so so bad.


Won't be surprised that Divine aka I never espererit, would fade off into gloom if he isn't encouraged asap. see the Bahrain defectors doing wonders in just weeks after defecting. which means the cost of motivation is not burdensome for those in charge. Yet al we continue to grow is Millions of algae and spirogyra in our pools across country. Nice piece!!!!

Finding Talent in this Nigeria isn't a problem again, unlike 2 decades ago.


But Motivating and sustaining them na wahala.

the guy in charge would sit down for one beerpalor reasoning that these sportsmen doing need all the 2 milla allocated for sustaining then.

"Make I drop 250k for them jare, shayin ya eyes welu welu " He'll say. And on and on, the zeal and Spirit of success that accompanies sportsmanship dwindles absolutely.
