agbameta: You can rage, go crazy and even kill yourself with all your petty hate, bitterness and jealousy, Liberty is in the history books including your county's history and publications as the first stadium in Black Africa.

Just too sad how vagrants and people like you with lack of self worth and belonging belittle and deny your own pride and great history just to give to another country because of hate and bitterness.

This is why you people don't progress, this is why your villages are still caves.

Ibadan remains in our history books as a pioneer city with many firsts in Africa, something you can not say about your hell hole combined... That right there is your reality and downfall...

Eiyaah
This one pepper you well.
I simply provided a link to dispute your bogus claims and you go berserk.
All I need you to do is stop perpetrating the lies your fathers told you to your future generation.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
I can see you've cunningly changed it to black Africa, if I provide another link now you'll change it to West Africa, and then Nigeria, then Oyo state.
My history books did not tell me any such thing.
I'm a fan of correcting misinformation.
You never know who is reading.

primeson1: Liberty Stadium , the first
stadium in Africa. The first citadel of higher
learning, University of Ibadan (formerly the
University College of Ibadan), and the first
teaching hospital in Nigeria, University College
Hospital , UCH, were both built in this ancient
but, highly important city. Ibadan is also
home to the legendary Shooting Stars FC -- a
professional Football Club.

Do you seriously believe that Africa was such a dark continent, that a substandard stadium like that was the first?
Below is a link with a list of stadiums in Egypt.
Note that there is one with a capacity of about 20,000 in Alexandria built in 1929 when Ibadan was still dotted with thatch houses.
Stop making bogus claims,
Pls.

The Liberty Stadium now renamed
Obafemi Awolowo Stadium is a historic
25,000 seat football stadium based in the
city of Ibadan, Nigeria. It was the first
stadium to be built in Africa. Ibadan also
boasts of the first radio and television
stations in Africa. The first live broadcast
was from Ibadan by Madam Anike Agbaje-
Williams the first face on television in
Africa.

Why are u pple fond of laying bogus claims.
What do you mean by first stadium built in Africa?
Pls Africa does not span from Adoekiti to Oshogbo.
There are much older stadia in Egypt, etc.
First face on which television?!
Next you'll tell me Ekiti has the highest number of professors in Nigeria.
I was enjoying the pictures of shoeless folks on shorts trekking about till u came and spoilt it with your claims

Thank goodness Chelshait lost
I can have peace free of noise from their tout fans.
Lukaku I love you

Referee I love you

Opey4luv: Hmmm RIP to all those who died serving their father's land. The Labour of our past heroes shall not be in vein.

Nor shall they be in artery.

clip: . The cross of the matter is that they should not collect bribe. If they do not collect bribe from the smugglers God will always protect them in days like this.

No be only cross what of rosary.

Our team was tired and burnt out.
The Senegalese team were more fit.
You could see we made a good come back in the last quarter because we had more experience, but we were just too fatigued to go the last mile.

Many of us in the South remain suspicious of the census figures but there is a sensible way and a foolish way to do thins.Odimegi has chosen the foolish way

This is very true see link below.

Ekiti State is reputed to
have produced the 4th highest number of professors in
Nigeria (behind Imo , Ondo and Anambra States).

fyneguy: Btw I have 10,000 bags of Premium Parboiled White rice for sale o. N9,000 per bag

No wonder you are trying to promote the foreign rice.
LOL!

fyneguy: Lie from the pit of Ministry of Agric

Processed rice otherwise called Parboiled rice is more nutritious sir. Unprocessed rice is called paddy rice. Now google both for confirmation.

I have done so sir and came up with this.
All types of rice begin life as paddy rice,
including the highly nutritious brown rice
varieties. The harvested rice kernels begin
processing with the removal of the hull.
Every brown rice product is simply rice that
has been harvested from the hull and has
not been subjected to intensive processing.
White rice products go on to a more
comprehensive processing in order to obtain
the bright white appearance that is enjoyed
by many consumers.
Note that in my previous post i said that imported rice undergoes more RIGOROUS processing.
Note also that imported rice is often much whiter than the local rice which tends to be brown.
This is basic Agric.
I never equated locally processed rice to paddy rice.
Thank me for the lessons.

Nebeuwa: All South-East governors were present except for Rochas Okorocha.

Why is T.A. Orji (the world's worst governor) laughing the most.

What a picture of doom and gloom.
'If you replace 109 senators randomly a thousand times they all would be the same'
That's like the biblical conversation of Abraham with God when Abraham was pleading for Sodom and Gomorrah.
I guess what is left is to destroy Nigeria.

I feel very sad for you.
Why not light up fireworks and throw an owambe party to celebrate a tweet from a white twit.

Symphony007: plans to to build this airpirt started in 1960, by 196m how many tourist visted thialand? How much buisness went on there? But the king and government insisted that mdern facilities will enhance the country image and make it attractive. In 1973, 8,400 acres of land was bought for the airport but construction did'nt start due to the overthrow of the thanom kittikachon government. Instability stalled the project until civil construction for the airpirt started in 2002 and it was completed in 2006. Has the reason for the building gotten into thy thick skull?

No dumbo
Are you trying to say that it was the airport which was built just in 2006 that accelerated Thailand's economy in retrospect because prior that Thailand was already an economy to reckon with.
You don't put the cart before the horse.
Do you want the FG to replicate Bangkok airport in Enugu?
How much will it cost?
Or would you rather a have a gradual natural process of expansion like happens everywhere in the world.
London Heathrow didn't start off as big as it is presently.
It has continually undergone expansion.
Same with Hong Kong, Singapore's Changi, Korea's Incheon etc. They all had humble beginnings.

Symphony007: and you think thailand became among the most visited capital cities by using primitive airports like us. Listen kiddo, in 2006, thailand closed the don mueang international airport and built the suvarnabhumi international airport which stands today and has made travelling in thailand very pleasurable thereby increasing passangers. How pleasurable it is to travel via MMA or any other nigerian airport? Ever heard how britsih airways and some other airlines and diverting nigerian passangers to ghana for take off? That speaks volumes.

Was it the increase number of passengers that made them shut down the old airport and construct a new one or was it the new airport that caused the number of passengers to increase?
Don't reason like a mop please.

Symphony007: for the love of God, i'm tired of telling you people i'm not yoruba, cause apparently it's not registering. Tribalism is now part of your existence. Secondly, that airport is not by any level international airport standard. I have emphasied that in so many post earlier. And lastly my good friend, if every nigerian thinks like you, this country will never development. No offense!! Seriously, just read the last few lines of your post.

You are beginning to sound like an uneducable broken record.
Others are also tired of telling you that the terminal is the refurbished LOCAL wing.
Construction of the international terminal is underway.
The runway expansion is complete hence the commencement of international flights.
FYI Bangkok is the most visited country capital in the world ahead of London, Paris and Tokyo, so don't draw ludicrous analogies.
You are one of those who think they are intelligent but often get flawed because they fail to get the basics.

The construction of the international terminal has been awarded and has commenced.
The runway expansion is complete thus commencement of international flights.
Yet you yap on about sub standard.
I guess you are one of those people who feel intelligent but often flaw themselves by neglecting the basics.

Obiagelli: I like your objectivity here, though I have seen rice mills here and there, truth is that I can seen to find any of this local rice in the main markets. Btw I still believe this agric minister is a failure and the government itself is not interest in agriculture, the budget alone speaks volume.

Destoned local rice is often more expensive than the regular imports.
I agree they are not always available but that depends on where you live and how much you are willing to pay.
Local rice is also healthier and more nutritious as rigorous processing of imports tend to reduce its nutritive content.
