Wasting students time, effort and resources just because you want to integrate dem into different cultures of your country!

As i mentioned earlier, our business, career, investment and worklife is enough for us to understand and appreciate our country's various ethnicities and environments.

The elderlies running these top govt positions look at the huge youth population and think

what else can we cook for these idle lots?

The perception is consistent. Whereas, the youths are busier that they'll ever be. They've failed Nigeria's future. They look at the youths with myopic disdain. Too condescending

slivertongue:
I was attacked here when I raised concerns over the reforms which seeks six weeks camping. Hmmm naija

The conclusions they arrive at always defy critical thinking. They love pushing our halfbaked equations without variables and constants. Just vibes and inshallah.

Mujtahida:
SA epitomises that kind of football you describing in your last paragraph.

But Nigeria doesn't play that way.

Im glad Super Eagles no sabi do that thing. We've even tried it but we are terrible at it 😂😂😂
To face opponent and go past them is now a big issue. Urghhh!! Mbappe doesn't care. Messi arrives at the right time. If i were any coach I'll man mark him. It will help. Most goals he arrived at the perfect time when nobody was acting like the dangerous man was on the pitch.

With all due respect, we are alive as we were 13years ago. We say and heard reactions from all and sundry.

Labelling this an obidient sentiment is embarrassing. Many yorubas are not obidient but they also detest the entire precedents of this man in power from the 90s down to the present. Convenient to call them obidient.


That aside, moGs were vocal against GEJ even when he visited many of them for prayers. They still didn't use that familiarity to not talk truth to power.


Why should this now be different with BAT? Why the subtle(doesn't look subtle to me anyways) attempts to whitewash the obvious rot and incompetence by the very man that screamed EMI LOKAN passionately?


I imagine a Prophet Samuel or Nathan refusing to say the truth to Saul and David when they faltered. I imagine Elijah sugar coating the mediocrity displayed by Ahab and Jezebel and telling the people that they're trying their best and they can't do anything else as they can't wear khaki to fight insecurity.


One doesn't even need to be religious to know this very excuses are the lamest.

For heaven's sake over 1000s kids are in captivity for at least 30days and this sugar coating now


Cmon!! Leave partisan sentiments aside and lets open our eyes cos society is not safe for anyone of us to stand behind who can't guarantee the basic requirements of entrusted leadership aka security and economy

Lifestone:
How is this crappy. One of the best reforms witnessed in any Nigeria institution in recent time. Refocusing youth to more productive programs serves better than the current arrangement.
Let's give this new look a chance

The fact you labelled the boldened on this upgrade tells me i should not bother engaging further. I wish you can see this is not against youth productivity. Rather this is baseless if existing problems and factors are not in the equation of reality right now.

Thanks anyways

It is a terrible idea i hope it dies as fast it came to public ears.

Rather let them modify the current one on gound and remove that SAED or break it into practical hours. Sitting fo hours to some boring talk that doesn't stimulate an already tired body and brain for hours is counterproductive.



And most importantly, 6 weeks is a chaotic time adjustments. Across all 37 camps, there's barely 4 that have commendable accommodation settings


There's barely 2 that have proper restroom and kitchen settings befitting for humans. Barely with good water supply and electricity. Let them work on that cos currently having over 2000 youths camped in a place is going to generate tens of thousands of human waste and urine and at least 2000tons of trash under 6 weeks. They need to factor all these in.

Knowing the inherent potential of Nigerians to vehemently go against honest authority,the removal of the military hierarchy will crumble the scheme andbribery and corruption will be (current corruption)⁴

6 weeks should be the idea when insecurity is near zero.

Once again, some dumbos sat and spent taxpayers monies for some board meeting in AC boardrooms and came up with this crappy idea. Smh.

Mujtahida:
Thierry Henry once said that the defendant he found most annoying was Taribo West because during their time at French ligue one, Taribo would man mark him and not give him space at all.

I am saying this against the backdrop of my observation in modern football: they don't man mark players anymore.

Messi roams free, Mbappe too. Dangerous players oo. Dem go leave them to dey prowl like hungry lion.

Old football will assign at least one player to follow these guys. Yes Messi is hard to mark but he's old now na. I don't agree with some aspects of these modern game

Saliba and Gabriel carry that mentality come World cup. They're the two that are man marking hard while their cb partners seem to do the opposite. The way Saliba marked Gyokores yesternight 😂

It beats me why man marking is now old school.


I expect a factory reset for football philosophy after this world cup sha.

Let's bring back dribbling, man marking and one touch, 1v1 duels.

Trevor Noah said some about why team go see chance after holding possession only to turn back to rinse and repeat the back and forth and this shape thing. 😂

TheSuperNerd:
That frontline alone is 11 Goals and 9 assists at this WC alone.

Barcola - 2 goals, 1 assist
Olise - 4 assists
Dembele - 4 goals, 2 assists
Mbappe - 5 goals, 2 assists

Then behind them is a really solid midfield, highly technical yet physically imposing.

Their defence - The Great Wall Of France that stands as tall as the Eiffel tower.

Indeed, my dear colleague... They are favorites for many reasons.

This french team reminds of how super eagles were set up in 1994 and 98. The individual brilliance was peak yet they played as a team. If Nigeria wants to succeed, we'll need players that can sniff blood and do whatever is necessary at the right moment while team chemistry is the path to such boooommm!!!


The french bench again is something else. There barely much Deschamps can do but he's doing the job of managing this team well. This team is allowed to have ego problems but we don't even hear it. That is one issue that ruined the super Eagles that year. If that's the most a manager can do to a team, he's successful imo. Cos a cool tactician can come and still fail cos of ego battles. Olise alone e dey. Kone dey,

I imagine how it would have been if Ekitike was here and coming from the bench.

This team will reach the finals. I doubt Morocco can stop them. I really doubt Portugal too. Germany and Netherlands are out so only Spain can give problems but even their backline has not really been tested like France own.


Scenes where 3 African teams are in the q/final😜😆

mostob:
Chriso blog Dav eP

Odegaard no dey play like this for Arsenal o. Yeye captain

I tokam just as he give Nusa that pass. So baba get eye for LW passes? E go return and go dey only look for Saka or back passes😂😂😂

In a way, Arteta style is too cautious. That's why i keep praying we return to the 2022 version of Odegaard. I hope Arteta allows our captain play freely for this next marathon sha. Esp as more threat and physicality will come with Rogers, Kone and Guimaraes (if atall)

do4luv14:
What needs to be done is Retain Chelle, left all players selection to him

Make him the U23 Coach with free hand to pick his Assistant,

We also need to define our style of footie

I hope the factory reset im hearing is true. Cos that candidate has what it takes

You know I dont miss...

If Morocco manage to stun Netherlands then they'll reach that final. That means only self destruct will stop them. For now, Netherlands is the favourite all rounda.


Morocco and Civ are suspect. Ghana dey try. These 4, cape verde inclusive, have proven to have a solid backline for me at this tournament.

What does Nigeria need to do under 4 years to match the form of Morocco in the last 2 world cup that we missed.


They didn't lose in the group stage. When last has Nigeria registered no L in group stages?


We need to set this house in order nd funds and each of protocol and seriousness in recruitment is needed.

We also need to have a pattern of play and players that fit such profile.
We also need to have an emergency appro6when things are not going our way vs top teams, incase we go backfoot.

There's no way we would have been here and not get 2 wins with the level of football im seeing from the african reps. The only downside is we go be goal-goal team for this WC.

Nwabali better do what is necessary or else...
We still need him i won't lie. But he needs to fix that club issue asap.

TheSuperNerd:
That Vikings celebration is already one of the talks of this WC. Whole stadium sections executing it. Beautiful yet intimidating sight. Lol

If anything at all, na to allow them tey for the tournament so they go spend well.

Skol parties
Exquisite hotel rooms and food
High tickets sales
Free spirited and warm across the streets of New York and all.

Even their nurses are doing the ROooooooooo.

Erik Ragnasson will be proud.

On a commercial level, Fifa will be smiling at Norway. They have the largest fanbase from Europe for this World Cup. Considering how expensive this tournament is right now, they're really spending huge funds for the entire duration they'll be in the USA.


Fifa right now: ROooooooooo!!!! Gbamgbam!! Rooooooo

Oga Godwin really enter Super Eagles footballers with that street football yab. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


Their mates dey world cup🤣🤣

Philosopher1979:
Yeah you are right.
Morocco in particular. First African team to reach the second round of world cup. 1986. Bouderbala abdilazeez and others
What morocco is doing is not new in a sense.
Morocco knows how to compete globally even though they are just a bit above average in africa.

Despite what Egypt and Cameroon did half a century ago, they seem to have fallen so bad on World Cup stage.

Im looking at the table and na the arab league countries dey bottom of all the group's they're in mostly. Minus Morocco and Algeria.

With how the intensity is weird and low at this World cup, we for dey ball and Osimhen and Lookman will be having the rave Haaland and Odegaard are currently having.



Norway for one reason are making me pissed at Nigeria supporters club. They lack innovation and creativity. Their apk is down the abyss. We've missed two world cups now. NSC faction 1,2 and 3 will still no upgrade their pattern of support. They need Gen Z leaders!! 😂😂


I hope Ghana doesn't disappoint in that group anyway. But for me, Norway and Netherlands look like teams that will reach the final 4. I dunno about Argentina. They don't look tested at the back just yet. Brazil might go farther than Argentina. Messi can't carry that team alone.

Goke7:
That country has really done us dirty both at senior and junior levels. We’ve never collected even a point at group stage from them, they have also denied us both u-20 and Olympic gold titles(except that of 96) omo na our husband dem be 😂

5 times we were drawn vs Argentina

5 times we got L. The last L was annoying. Ahmed Musa sha tried. His teammates were underwhelming that day. If they had the ginger he brought, that game should have at least ended in a draw.

Blueelf:
Someone I know said Senegal only knows how to play African teams
That they lack mentality and flair against Europeans in competitive games
Next AFCON, they will form merlin

Nigeria
Ghana
Morocco


These three are the ones that know how to play teams at the world cup well. Everybody else na follow come.


Cape Verde and CIV making a case so far.

yinkeys:
Sénégal lost again smh
They have to beat Iraq to qualify
Poor outing from the Afcon champions

Senegal have been underwhelming


Their defense is even more terrible than their attacking threat. If we dash them Calvin Bassey and Benjamin Frederick, it will be hard to get to Mendy. Mendy has been too exposed by his defenders. Smh.


Cape Verde and CiV seem to be the only 2 holding the torch now. I don't even expect much from Morocco.

We need to get Kone(no 6) asap.

Mr Festus, weldone o

Amedino99:
Egypt and Cameroon. Best definition of local champions. Egypt played in the second ever world cup but ever since they have only managed to appear twice (minus this one) in the following 20 tournaments.
Cameroon own is worse. Highest number of world cup games in Africa but the win percentage is abysmal.

Morocco now has 26 points in total from all World cup games. They have at most 3 more games ahead.

Super Eagles in 2022 would have gotten to r16(4games) +3 assured games in USA to make 7games(21points up for grabs with assurance of 10 points from the 21)


This thing dey pain sha.

Morocco
Problem solving by sourcing, resourcing, outsourcing


Nigeria
Problem
Problem
Big problem if a solver is a coach demanding better pay after outstanding results. They nip it in the bud faster than lightning. Then outsource to puppets that makes everything built worse


Then they source for a new solver


Rinse and repeat.


Morocco go leave us behind if we don't set our football leadership in order, especially the sourcing for immediate solutions to immediate problems. Make they dead the bias against foreign borns filling up the team. Till then sha

Ghana has equaled Super Eagles WC record with their win over Panama. All it too was missing b2b world cup finals for this embarrassing moments to happen. Less games too.

If Morocco wins Scot, they'll be Africa's best wc rep of all time, dethroning Cameroon.

N:B- games at this current wc not included on this table yet. Do the maths yourself. Updated version later

Scammers in that NIMC. They deliberately filled in errors for DOB during their very 1st registration process across the country. Deliberately. Its why they put their eggs in this DOB basket. One would think it was individual error but it was the staff filling in the boxes that did that.


It's actually 30k now. If they like make they increase am to minimum wage. Robbers and Extortioners!!

Anybody that's not showing World Cup level of performance should getat abeg. B2b World Cup miss is enough to up the ante. All these patience patience na why we dey here now.

SymphonyRad:
Modric needs to retire, you don try uncle.

This World cup, we gonna tell any surviving player of the Zidane 3peat era to just go hang boot.

minfelix:
Just that if Portugal start to show us small flash of their brilliance our players will begin to cower….Most of our boys too dey fear when the going is getting tougher

Yeah. Just that Portugal no get that factor right now. Even Bruno and Vitinha didn't come through atalllll.

yinkeys:
I feel for Senegal
Thé match against Norway ain’t sure.
Norway have Halaand, Sorloth, Odegard

If Senegal can be decisive in the final 3rd they should get at least a point. Norway struggling with playing out from the back.

FiveFootNinja:
Bro the entire team is so dull and lethargic on the ball it's unbelievable.

If the exact SE team that played Algeria and Morocco at Afcon played Portugal, they'll beat Portugal by 2goal margin.

At this rate,i give DRC the 3 points. The Mendes side dey leak. Veiga dey play rubbish. The entire midfield of Portugal are strollers like cr7. Wan bissaka and Bakambu doing Mendes like he no better pass Zaidu. If i were to add a SE player into this game to make DRC score 2 unreplied goals, na Ademola Lookman for the RW side of Congo. For now, the entire Portuguese XI are as underwhelming as the ueue in Q-ueue.
