muyiwah666: It is either this man is fake or he was showing off sometime in in May 1995,when he said at the Winners Chapel,Raji Oba by Iyana Ipaja....that he was earning 400k that period....he said that senior pastors earn 120k and junior pastors earn 100k....i was in the church that day..no be say somebody tell me !...i heard him clearly,it was a Tuesday evening service and i sat very close to d pulpit....his sermon that evening got me thinking about going to pastoral school because i was an applicant as at that time.....he said plainly that he is the one that sign the salaries of everybody that works for the church including the wife...

I never wanted to comment until I saw this.

Now what are we to believe of the bishop? This post said he boasted of his salary in 1995, and now the bishop said he stopped receiving salary in 1987 or so.

Following the topic.

I opened a topic on this, I didn't know there have been earlier postings.

Matthew 5:43-48

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.'' Words of Jesus Christ our Lord.

What kind of illness is this?

Mourinho isn't given Kaka games, so there is no way Coaches can vote for him. I am telling you that Kaka is still good. Just like Pedro Leon and Canales Mourinho chose to keep on the bench. That doesn't mean they are not still good.

Do you know that Kaka is yet to have a bad game playing for Madrid. Even though he is abandoned on the bench. His return to the Brazilian team after 2 years was monumental.

Please watch this video and tell me that Di Maria's final balls are not good. Di Maria's final balls are amazing. Iniesta can't beat that.

As for Nani, Ferguson is not playing him the right way. Nani isn't a winger but a wing attacker like Thierry Henry and CR7.

No more argument. Sleep time.

The reason I went all the way with you is because you have a good sense of reasoning and logic. You try to support your arguments with points. But some other posters here are very insulting. They aren't mature.

Hope to see you in some other trends even though we are in different camps or school of thought. I might also follow you. Bye

thegoodjoehunt:

Iniesta - Kaka, I'll take Kaka anyday.

Iniesta has played 16 games this season and scored 3 goals.
Kaka has played 9 games 2 goals. Note that Kaka has not been a regular starter in the amount of games played.

Xavi - Ozil. That is a very tough one but I'll take Xavi any day.

Villa - Di Maria. Please Di Maria any day. Villa is not close to Di Maria in form now. If it was in his prime, I can understand but now Di Maria.

From this point you will see that Mourinho has better players. If you look at his attack and attack midfield.

CR7, Higuain, Benzema, Di Maria, Ozil, Modric, Xabi Alonso, Kaka, Khedira, Callejon.

Villa, Sanchez, Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Pedro, Fabregas, (these are virtually the attack and midfield that plays regularly for Barca). You can see that Real is far more equipped with Stars.

Kaka over Iniester? If you say so. I quit the argument. But the world national team coaches and captains voting world best players have always stated Iniester and Xavi are next to Messi and Ronaldo.

As for me, Di Maria final balls are not good. Just like Nani of Man United. Di Maria and Nani are very good but their final balls are poor and that's why they are not rated as high as Iniester and Xavi. Benzema is too heavy and Haguain is not consistent. Don't you notice the speed of Iniester, Pedro and Villa coupled with their final delivery? Di Maria has speed but his final delivery most times are disappointing. The reason Ferguson picks Valencia ahead of Nani.

thegoodjoehunt:
Please can you explain how he was declining. Man City lost a big war before Madrid signed Kaka, the same season with CR7. Real Madrid signed Kaka as a top player.

If you are to field one player out of the following two, who will you feature in a match? Please answer sincerely.
1. Iniester 2. Kaka .

You may also do same between Xavi and Ozil, and between Villa and Di Maria.

If you answer sincerely, you will recognize the point I have been trying to make and the quality of the Barca and Spanish national team players.

FIFA awards over the last three years is a clue. Xavi and Iniester are the next best players after Messi and Ronaldo. Only Rooney will come close again on current form and consistency in recent years. Di Maria does everything right on the pitch until he gets to 18 yard, then he runs out of ideas on how to finish up or what to do next with the ball.

Asiwaju9ja: You LIE big time. Ronaldo in his interview with Joao Pinto of CNN said La Liga is stronger than EPL

So tell me where the lie is. Look at the link below- Ronaldo says EPL is more competitive. Don't you watch sports review on TV?

Ronaldo stated in his latest interview, "The Premier League is more competitive than La Liga. In Spain, football is more technical, the players like to control the ball, they play more football. In England, the game is more intense, the referees give more freedom and I believe that the British fans like it. I like it, too, the fast football, teamwork; it is brilliant and wonderful to watch.". http://blogs.bettor.com/Cristiano-Ronaldo-says-that-the-English-Premier-League-is-more-competitive-than-La-Liga-a123688

Nowadays what is being taught? Or what do Christians practice? How often do we hear ''enemy must die'' ''destroy the enemy, fire the enemy''. The people have abandoned the teachings of the bible and established their own christianity. We should always have it at the back of our minds that at the end, we shall face Jesus in judgment, therefore we should guide our words and actions in accordance with His teachings.

This is too bad.

I remember I had to calm a police man one night, he was busy clearing traffic and when he had created a space to get vehicles to move, one arrogant young man entered it quickly and stayed there to queue for fuel. The police man told him no one should queue on the road, he wouldn't listen or move till the police man got very angry and was going to shoot his tyre. He kept claiming right, when I saw that the situation could degenerate quickly as the police man could not take it anymore, I had to quickly intervene. People should learn to respect security personnel. I am not one, but I do respect them.

thegoodjoehunt:
Your very wrong here. Remember a lot of great players have been dropped and changed clubs and blossomed. Remember Thierry Henry at Juventus. He was dropped on the bench and still went to Arsenal and became the best. Harry Redknapp dropped KP Boateng on the benchN he went to Milan and became a hero.

During the end of last season Kaka was definitely among the best players of real madrid.

Dzeko not being a regular in Man City or Tvez benching in Man Utd doesn't mean they are not good.

Remember Kaka only stayed one season before Mourinho came. He turned down a 500k pounds deal to sign for Madrid.

The way you argue sef, na wao. Kaka has reached his peak and declining rapidly. Mourhino is one of the best coaches in the world. He knew Kaka was not up to average anymore. Everyone watching knew that and even Kaka never complained. Even the fans did not complain 'cos everyone knew Kaka had past his peak.

The way Barca fans argue is funny. I can see people arguing about Bilbao, Atletico beating Man U and City. Where were Madrid, Barca, Athletico and Bilbao when Chelsea won the UCL? The 6th team in EPL? People should top comparing the competitiveness in EPL to Laliga. Have we forgotten those days Liverpool will go to Madrid and win 3-0 in group stage?

What I know is EPL teams have dominated champion league well. Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal. And Chelsea is the current champion. Man U is the European team that has played the most semi finals of UCL in the last 15 years. They have been most consistent. Also played 3 finals in four years, yet someone is trying to bring them to the level of Bilbao. What has Bilbao achieved? May be people have forgotten Man U beat Barca in 2008 semi finals. Chelsea beat Barca this year with ten men.
People should be objective in analyzing this game. EPL is more interesting to watch, even Ronaldo said it last week that EPL is more difficult and he watches EPL every weekend, but doesn't watch much of La Liga matches.

thegoodjoehunt: Kaka never fell off. It is Mourinho that has failed to utilize Kaka well. If you watch the game Kaka played for his country last month, he was clearly the best player on the pitch.

You are alone in this class and ideology. Will you give Iniester to anyone and he will bench him? Kaka was already weak before Mourinho arrived. Kaka's fall to slow lazy football can be liken to Berbatov.

Ucheosefoh: Guy must u lie to make ur point or u dnt know how to watch football matches, Di Maria has more assist dan Xavi and Iniesta combine last season Messi have 29 assist with 73 goals nearing double the Iniesta and Xavi assist. Mind u Ronaldo is nt gud in tiki taka style dat Barca play and cant play dat false nine dat Messi play if he can why cant Mou use him in dat position since he is their highest goal scorer. Ronaldo can only play well in a team that play counter attacking football (Man u, Real Madrid and Portugal) cus he has a lot of pace and required space 2 perform magic and 4 all u saying Messi cant play without Xavi and Iniesta he scored 12 goals in 9 matches 4 his national team this year without de duo while Ronaldo scored 5 goals in 13 matches 4 Portugal

And what is the lie n what I said? Is Di Maria a greater player than Iniester or Xavi? The answer is an obvious no. FIFA awards of the last three years said Messi, Ronaldo, Xavi and Iniester are the world greatest players. You have two support there for Messi, I.e Iniester and Xavi, whereas Ronaldo is obviously doing a lone man job in Madrid. Yes, Ronaldo does more on the pitch than Messi. That has been established already. He defends, he runs much more, etc.

Dee60: The last champion of EPL just got exitted at the group stage where they failed to win a single match. EPL of today has no chance among the greats. They play trash!

And the team that came 6th in EPL is the current champion. And Arsenal and Man U are still in the tournament. What city lacks is UCL experience.

thegoodjoehunt: CR7 and kaka have been best players of the year. Add Higuain and Benzema, that will cover the Messi, Xavi and Iniesta combination.

After that can you compare Busquets to Alonso? Modric and Fabregas will match. Look ar Real's team list. Real Madrid individually is the strongest team on the planet.

How do you watch football and rate players? Who still mentions Kaka when talking current form? How many matches does Kaka start or play for Madrid? May be 30%. Someone like you will still think Ronaldiho is among the world top XI, or Giggs is still Man U top XI.

All the Madrid players you mentioned there are no where near Iniester and Xavi. Fifa awards in the past three years should be a guide to you.

thegoodjoehunt: Bilbao didn't just beat Man Utd, they totally outplayed them. Superiority has no face here.

Chelsea are the reigning champs but were thrashed mercilessly. That dominance of the EPL is not real.

What is Europa cup to Man U that they should risk their best for? Bilbao played the football of their lives 'cos that was all they could get in football. Man U was preoccupied with Premier League quest.

Chelsea are champions. It is not the first time Europa champion will beat UCL champion with a wide margin, but it still doesn't mean the Europa is stronger. If they can play, let them come to UCL.

EPL teams are the king of UCL for the same reason I mentioned earlier. As far as I am concerned, Barca only triumphed in 2011. 2009 was a gift to them by the ref who made them beat Chelsea. Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea have all won the UCL recently and came second at least once each. Apart from Barca, which Spanish team has played finals again? How any get to quarter and semi finals?

hustla: When he humbled Nigeria at d youth level,was Xavi dia? When he scored an hat trick against Brazil,was Iniesta dia?? Ahan! Dis boy sabi ball,let him be ooooo haba! Isn't torres in d middle of this same pack?

And Real Madrid doesn't have Kaka,Ozil,Modric and others that assist??

Who is talking about youth football here where he was awarded two controversial penalties to score against Nigeria and won 2-1 narrowly. Even at the olympics it was 1-0. Talk about senior world cup.

He scored hatrick against a Brazil side without Alves, Davis Luis, Micon, Lucio, Marcelo and Ramires. Go and watch the match. Most of the players were first timers. Rafael ad co.

Then Ozil, Modric and co cannot be compared to Xavi and Iniester whom have been coming on top three nomination for world best.

thegoodjoehunt:
CR7 is a very great player. No doubt he is up there with the greatest (Messi). Many people forget how good the France '98 team of France was the propelled Zidane. Or how Pele's team with Tastao and co. pushed Pele. You need a good team to make a great player.

The Real Madrid team is individually better than the Barca team. What seperates them is coherency built for years. When you have Kaka, Ozil, Di Maria, Xabi Alonso, Benzema, Higuain, Luka Modric, Coentrao, etc. It is a great team and it has also helped CR7 perform more than what he did at Barca.

They are both great but Messi is better. Remember Alexi Sanchez is a Super talent. Yet he hasn't made a great impact like Messi.

I disagree, Barca has greater players. Look at how many times Xavi and Iniester have reached top tree nominees to world best players awards. Has any Madrid reached there?

Zidane was a great player for France and clubs. He won world cup and EUFA. Then helped real Madrid and Juventus to great heights. Pele too was great for club and country. CR7 has been great for Man U and Madrid and also a world cup semi finalist as well as EUFA finalist when they lost to Greece.

thegoodjoehunt:

The idea that he might still improve is more frightening than the records he has achieved. This goal record he is about to set is a proof that Messi is actually improving.

We might be witnessing the greatest player in football history. Believe me I am a Messi critic.

I wrote this article in 05 December 2008:

Not CR7, It is Messi who might fade.

Reading some comments to some articles yesterday, I was disappointed seeing people writing that CR7 would fade while Messi would last longer and be a greater player.

Sorry I don't think this is true. If you look back Argentine players(especially the small ones) are the ones that even fade.

Argentine players peak very early and are so promising. Later they just seem to be irrelevant to the game. Let me give instances.

Argentina has won 5 of the last 7 U20 World Cup and Messi and Aguero are the only superstars they have to show because they are still young. Carlos Tevez is an exception. He has just grown in form.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A44498253

And he has continued proving me wrong. Now I can proudly say it. Messi to football is bigger than what Michael Jordan is to Basketball.

Many says he hasn't achieved because of the World Cup, I say the Football greats haven't achieved what Messi has achieved in Club football.

Messi is good but one thing that helps him so much is playing among the Spanish national team midfielders and forwards. I am very sure if Ronaldo was to be in the midst of Iniester, Xavi, Villa, Pedro, Bousqet, he would achieve much more. To me, Ronaldo does more on the pitch than Messi. Ronaldo defends, runs half the field most times with the ball before getting to scoring position. But Messi could be idle and before you know it, he exchanges quick passes with Alves, Iniester and Xavi and he gets the goals. Removed from this set of players- Iniester, Xavi, Alves, Villa and Pedro- Messi will not be half of where he is.

thegoodjoehunt:
The EPL might is an illusion. Didn't you see how Bilbao messed up Man Utd, Barca beat Man Utd in Two Champions League finals ie EPL greatest team. Didn't you see Atletico Madrid thrash Chelsea 4-0. So why do you think the EPL is ahead.

EPL is ahead because Chelsea is the defending champion of UCL. Forget super cup. EPL is ahead because it has gotten its teams to play the most semi finals and finals in the last decade. Except on few occasions, an EPL team plays final of UCL every year. In the last couple of years, Liverpool has played two finals, Man U three finals, Arsenal one final and Chelsea two finals. Barca had to rob Chelsea in 2009. Also check the league playing the most quarter and semi finals of the UCL.

Laliga is just two teams. EPL is more competitive. The reason Bilbao could beat Man U is that Man U was pursuing Premier League while Bibao had only Europa to hope for. Mau U and City were resting players, but Bilbao and Atletico used their very best. It's usually the case in Europa. Go check history. League contenders don't do well there. AC Milan, Juve, Inter Milan, PSG, etc.

hustla: and pls who has done sth similar?? and why does messi keep messing up epl teams in the champions league?? una no dey watch ball?? ahhh!

Where was Messi when Man U beat Barca in UCL semi of 2008. Where was Messi when Chelsea won the UCL last year? And remember the ref had to rob Chelsea in 2009 to send Barca to UCL final.

I know America is not what it used to be, and appeared to be getting worse. Apart from France and Germany, same is happening in Europe. I have friends and family members all over.

For me it's a place for breaking news. Most news hit nairaland even before they become news.

A place to learn about human behaviour and public opinion.
A place to share ideas, and listen to opinions of others.
A place to take a peep at what is happening in naija.
At times, a place to bear insult from people who think you are of their age or category.
A place to get to know the importance of garri from the garri team. A place to check who is the latest to have acquired a private jet. I want to stop here first.

davioli: @sweetlemon prince William is next to the throne.. Google is there you can check it out yourself. His father lost that right a long time ago with the whole princess Diana saga. But it ain't our business really.

Google says it's Charles, but he might abdicate.

Sweetlemon: The last time I checked prince Charles was next in line. dont know where you got that from

Prince Charles is next in line, but they could skip a generation and hand it over to Prince Williams. It is said that the queen can make this possible. If you have noticed, Prince Charles is keeping the background while Prince Williams is taking the stage, or should I say, is being prepared and sold to the public.

See this piece that was written 3 years ago.

http://m.voices.yahoo.com/will-prince-william-next-king-england-4558879.html Although Prince Charles is the heir apparent to the British throne, it is widely believed that he may abdicate in favor of his eldest son William. If indeed Queen Elizabeth lives another eight years to claim the title of oldest reigning monarch of the British Empire, Prince Charles would then be 69 years old. Having waited in the wings for over 40 years himself, he may not wish to inflict this "limbo" on his oldest son William.

Prince William is extremely popular with the English people, many of whom voice their opinion that William should become their next King. The son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, Prince William Arthur Philip Louis was born in 1982. He is 6'3" and is considered extremely handsome and gifted.
