I don't want CIV to qualify.

Let them at least learn a life's lesson not to run other people down or conclude too early (Especially that Yaya Toure). Empty boasters make the loudest noise. Don't judge things impulsively!

Morocco playing to the gallery.
Hope they will not regret this.
Unnecessary showboating.

dominique:
The ivoriens must be tensed right now hoping and praying that Morocco defeats Zambia and Tanzania does not beat DR Congo. If the scores stays as it is right now, they're out!

They're still too young so grill the mum with effirin leaves & cameroon pepper.

Allow the pups to mature on their own.
Learn how to make nkwobi nkita in the mean time.

Yes Osimhen is not scoring

But he has so far been the lifewire for nigeria

*He scored in the first game
*Gave Nigeria the penalty that won the match against the host
*And caused the Guinea Bissau defender to score own goal


His presence has caused the fear factor in the opponents team

If not nigeria would have been seen as average

robosky02:
Ladies and gentlemen,

Meet Emilio Nsue - the highest AFCON 2023 goal scorer so far with five goals in three games for Equatorial Guinea 🇬🇶 including the tournament’s only hattrick.

Nsue plays as a right back for CF InterCity in the Spanish third division and forward for EQG. 😅

He is way ahead of Nigerias' Osimhen, Senegal Sadio Mane and any big name you can think of.

This guy has been terrific

You called Kingfisher a beauty? That's a great enemy to fish farmers! It can swallow a fish of its size and has no mercy on fingerlings.

oluwaahmed:
Stop talking nonsense, Namibia is the only 3rd place team with 3 points others are on 2 and 1

CandidAdmin:
CIV can still qualify.
If morocco defeat zambia and Ghana vs Mozambique of group b should end in a draw.

That way Ghana and Mozambique will be stuck on 2 points. And zambia on one or two as long as they don't win.

MT:
Feed this SE to Cape Verde.

They will put us out of our misery

Fulaninigger:
Coach, scouts, NFF etc! The issue is that politics has heavily affected football

Take Yusuf Alhassan as example, we have many of them like him willing to play and perfom, but we keep picking big boys that dont have any zeal and passion to represent us

Fulaninigger:
Lol Iwobi that was heavily insulted in the last two games! The truth is that football has evolved and left us behind. We only have bunch if average players

Nobody can chnage anything

NSNO:
Omo OP bad oh!
"who is no stranger to failed relationships".

MightySparrow:
These are the Nigerian highest goals scorers in the history of Afcon.





Can the records be broken this time?

jmaxjohn:
Do you remember the below picture? Image 1. I do. I'm old enough to.

In those 25 years, what has the lagos state government done about effective recycling and trash disposal?

It's even funnier you think I'm not aware of the cop28 conference that just happened

You say this is about the environment. Yes it is.

Are you aware though that the co2 emissions of usa is 25 times higher than ours as at 2019?

I'm all out for banning Styrofoam. It's a physical menace in lagos.

Have you asked why the ban on Styrofoam in certain top tier countries around the world?



What else uses hydrocarbons? Check image 2

But take note of the word SLOW TO DEGRADE.

Here's a little statistics for you

According to the EPA, in 2018, the U.S. generated 80,000 tons of polystyrene waste in the form of containers, while less than 5,000 tons of it was actually recycled.

So the usa exceeds nigeria in both co2 emissions and Styrofoam waste. No surprise there.

So why don't they just recycle?

While polystyrene is known to be cost-effective, it's unfortunately very difficult and costly to recycle (despite being stamped with the #6 “chasing arrows” symbol).
Most recycling facilities are unable to process EPS because, unlike other plastics, it's challenging to get back in its base form. Few MRFs and other recycling facilities have invested in the compacting/densifying equipment required to reform foam blocks, and the entire process is time-consuming and expensive.

So they can't recycle it because they'd rather fund wars.
They can't chuck it on a landfill because it's not pretty and it leaks chemicals into the landfill.
And won't litter their environment with it
How about burning it?

Check image 3

That brings us back to they can't fund burning it efficiently because they'd rather fund wars.

So do what? Ban it. They've made enough money from it anyways.

This brings me back to waste disposal.

You ban Styrofoam in Nigeria, you get a rise in other toxic waste materials dumped in the environment causing harm to its people

This is bad for a country with very little efficient waste disposal and recycling systems.

Ban Styrofoam yes. Then what? Won't that increase our dependency on plastic? Do Nigerians know paper plates are a more environmentally friendly option? What happens to our rising landfills? What happens to those smelly corners of waste on streets and estates?

Zero awareness. Zero reasoning. Zero education. Zero planning. Zero execution. Just straight up ban. Why? Government say e no good.

No different from the half reasoned declaration of 'subsidy is gone'. Here we are, months after, paying 9 times the price of fuel AND STILL paying subsidy. Do you not realise yet that the rise in electricity tariff is a result of that thoughtless declaration? Guess what? The government is paying subsidy on electricity too.
Did you know subsidy on electricity was quietly removed according to the last administration? Guess who paid more for subsidy in q2 of 2023.

My point? Thoughtless directives like immediate ban on Styrofoam would only put us in deeper sh!t

madridguy:
The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment & Water Affairs should calm down and take things easy. This is peoples solely source of income and I believe there should be time frame to this.

jmaxjohn:
Pure faced stvpidity

You won't blame the government for not providing recycling centres, or providing a working trash disposal system, or creating incentives to encourage proper disposal of trash, you'd rather use this dull analogy to justify a thoightless governmental order.

Yes, ban it. But u can't say the government has done the bare minimum to provide a proper trash disposal system for everyone.

Do you see Styrofoam littered on Victoria island to lekki phase 1? Because there are good roads. Good roads encourage trash disposal trucks to provide their services to people there.

Are there good roads on the mainland that have this Styrofoam menace?

Think b4 u type stvpid things on the Internet.

jmaxjohn:
Think local restaurants and the stock of Styrofoam they have to provide affordable take outs for their customers.

Mind u, I think it costs 100/150ngn per Styrofoam pack rn. 300ngn per plastic pack. Same time last year, Styrofoam packs cost 50ngn per pack, and 100/150ngn for plastics.

Now those local restaurants will have to dispose off their stock. What do you think will happen to the wholesale price of plastics if the cheaper alternative is immediately eradicated?
What do you think will happen to the price of the plastic takeaway packs that local restaurant sells?

Now lagos has approx 20 million people. I can assure you that about 500 thousand visit different local restaurants daily.

Those 500 thousand would get to local restaurants and be met by a new price increment. They've been facing new price increments every week since the inception of this new govt. And now they're facing a new one, because of a thoughtless Styrofoam ban.

Before you type anyhow reply, just read my reply to another anyhow response about this ban immmediately above this one
