I don’t care if it happens or not. Or if he’s good at hold up play or whatever. He sha must perform in a United shirt. Hojlund sef get hype before we buy am.

This is likely to be a Wilcox signing. He should and must be held accountable for it, especially if his fees are not commensurate with what he does on the pitch for United.

Funny how you are quick to rationalize stealing from your sibling! While I won't lock my bro up for stealing from me, it's definitely going to have consequences for our future dealings once I know! Good brothers don't go stealing from their brothers

All what you have said does not negate his point. Did United hire top and highly rated Coaches? Yes. Were all of them successful at the club. No.
After they left united how many trophies the so call top coaches won? Spanish n EPL are the toughest leagues in the world.let them prove their mettle here n nt low class leagues in Holland , Norway or Portugal.Vaa gal came to united at twilight of his career.He has lost his touch.

You all keep missing his point. Before Eth came to United he was one of the most sort after young managers in the game just like Amorim. Eth Ajax side was lauded for his achievement and style of play hence his point of United hiring managers that were good and highly rated. It didn't work out doesn't mean the club was wrong in considering and hiring him. You guys will read A and turn it to Z.
lf you like be the best in your forme league, if u can't transalate here then l will v problem with me. That is y most of us don't get excited about any new signing again until uv proven yrsef here. All this nonsence about United being a graveyard for coaches is all rubbish. Bruno is in ascendency. Get the right coach / players everytin will fall into place

Teach kids the truth! There’s no dignity in crime but all the other nonsense like they’re not fit to marry or are all ritualist or less human or such wealth is temporal is dumb, silly and baseless.

Fraud wealth is only temporal to you in Nigeria. China will come here and make roads for you x50 the normal price, they’re getting richer. America will sell you arms at x10 the usual price. How many foreigners have been caught doing fraud in Nigeria, those ones don’t suffer repercussions or karma but because of the bitterness and envy in your heart you wish your country men will suffer and not have a good life. Dey play.

Our youth have taken it to another level, yes, it’s rampant and has become a pandemic but preach against it from a place of truth & sincerity. Otherwise these kids won’t change, because they know when you’re lying.
l started travelling out of this country since early ninties. l will b 53yrs by this. V been to all alot countries . The lazyness of present youth is frightening. l can't relate China ripping us off to yahooo crimes. lol...

If fathers want to be firm and decide on the character of whom they want for their daughters in current Nigeria, many daughters may never marry.

It’s easy to pick on yahoo boys but even the others with jobs are merely thieves with an ID cards but our society tends to accept that because we are mainly a country of hypocrites.

From the policeman, to the banker, to the govt worker, to the contractors, to the businessmen, traders and importers how many are not thieves? How many of the workers live solely on their income? How many of the traders do not cut corners in their trade? Many of them engage in rituals to gain promotion, patronage or make sales and the society is accepting of it all.

When it comes to yahoo boys, we all rise in arms. That’s pure hypocrisy.

A young customs officer who was barely 10 years in the service came to ask the hand of a lady in marriage and her father a retired Fed Govt director sent him away because of the flashy car he came in. It took tears from the girl and mother and pressure from the extended family to make him bulge. According to him, the boy was shady for him to have such a car with less than 10 years in service.

We really don’t mind stealing and corruption as Nigerians. We are only envious when it doesn’t favor us. If the OP had someone in his family who rose to became big through fraud and he is a direct beneficiary, this post will not exist.
The way our youths try to justify this yahoo crime always baffles me.How many yahoo boys v really established themselves.Yes they might build houses ,buy flashy cars ,go out with the best girls but is usually temporary. Have been a civil engineer for almost 30yrs now n v built houses for most of them.Yahoo game is played all over d world but our youth v taken it to another level with their lazyness

As a parent i don't think I can ever give out any of girls to a yahoo boy. The thought always drive me nut.

I have a lil cousin who is getting married this year, we got to meet her fiance over the weekend and the guy is a G boy, he has no other skills. Some of us aren't comfortable with it but her mother isn't bother cos obviously the guy is rich to some extent.


In asmuch we now live in a completely mannerless and moraless society as a parent can you give out your daughter in a marriage to a yahoo boy.
Why will I give out my daughter to a Yahoo boy? Who dem pray for nor beta na who dem curse wan better? I don't even allow Yahoo boys rent my houses because after one or two yrs they can't renew.

If we Qualify for Finals I just hope Amad is back by that time. Honestly we will really miss Zirzkee in that Semifinals that kind of opposition suits him well
Yoro has really improve . Maquire is gud but very error prone.I still prefer De ligt at that CB. We are missing Martinez esp because of those killer passes. As for Amad I dnt really know. His fitness might be an issue

HealthRe: World Liver Day 2025: Food Is Medicine by engrelvis(m): 7:04pm On Apr 19, 2025
Dpharmacist:
You're absolutely right that individual body physiology and genetics play a role in how we respond to food and lifestyle habits. But here's the reality: anecdotes (like someone living to 101 while drinking Pepsi daily) are exceptions, not the rule.

Public health guidelines aren't made for outliers—they're based on decades of research, analyzing thousands to millions of lives. Studies consistently show that excess sugar, alcohol, and ultra-processed foods increase the risk of liver disease, diabetes, obesity, and even cancer. One random 101-year-old doesn’t cancel out the evidence from millions who suffered early deaths.

Your personal experience with low blood sugar is valid—but that’s exactly why regular checkups and balanced diets are advised. You went overboard and extreme totally cutting sugar. It's just like someone cutting out all fats or proteins from their diet, there will always be consequences to it. The goal isn’t to punish the body but to nourish it smartly. The World Liver Day theme, "Food is Medicine," doesn’t say never eat sugar, it also doesn't say never eat salt. Instead it says understand the impact of your food and eat wisely. There’s a big difference between moderation and abuse(overdoing or underdoing) .

So yes—understand your body, but also respect what the science shows us about population health. It's not about fear, it's about being informed.
Fair enough.Now what is yr meaning of excess alcohol n sugar?
HealthRe: World Liver Day 2025: Food Is Medicine by engrelvis(m): 5:41pm On Apr 19, 2025
Dpharmacist:
Today, April 19th, we join the rest of the world to mark World Liver Day 2025, and the theme couldn’t be more relevant for us in Nigeria: “Food is Medicine.”

The liver is like your body's engine room. It is one of the most hardworking organs in your body—it filters toxins, helps with digestion, stores energy, and supports nearly every function that keeps you alive.

Sadly, more Nigerians are silently suffering from liver-related diseases, especially a rising condition called MASLD (Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease), often caused by unhealthy eating habits, lack of exercise, and excessive alcohol use. The reality is that many of us are unknowingly damaging our livers through what we eat and drink daily.

Why You Should Care (Yes, You!)

That second bottle of alcohol? It adds stress to your liver.

That heavy, oily evening meal after 10 p.m.? Your liver pays for it.

That sugary snack your child eats every day? It could lead to liver issues later in life.

But here’s the good news: even years of liver damage can be reversed. Just by changing the way you eat today, you can cut your risk of liver disease by up to 50%!

What Does “Food is Medicine” Really Mean?

It means your everyday meals can either protect or poison your liver.

If you’re overweight or have a big tummy, losing just 5% of your body weight can greatly improve your liver health.

The choices we make in the kitchen or at bukas and eateries matter.

Here’s how to handle it:

Choose local and natural: Add more vegetables like ugu, bitter leaf, okra, and fruits like pawpaw and watermelon to your meals.

Reduce the excess: Cut down on fried foods, sugary drinks, too much red meat, and alcohol.

Embrace moderation: Portion control can help reduce weight and stress on the liver—even small weight loss can lead to big liver health improvements.

Eat more vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, fish, and healthy oils like palm oil in moderation or olive oil.

Reduce sugar, salt, fried food, soft drinks, and excess red meat.


What We Face in Nigeria

We understand—healthy food isn’t always affordable or easy to find. Many communities face rising food prices, limited choices, and misleading adverts. But even small changes like switching from soda to water, eating more home-cooked meals, or choosing fruits over pastries can go a long way.

We need stronger policies from our government to support healthy eating—school meal programs, zoning for local markets, fair food pricing, and more awareness.


What You Can Do Today

Get involved: Join the conversation, share your own liver-friendly meal using #FoodIsMedicine on social media.

Eat smart: Choose foods that help your liver, not harm it.

Support your children’s future: Build healthy habits at home.

Visit a health centre: If you’re at risk, ask a doctor about your liver.

Learn more: Watch nutrition videos, read labels, and ask questions about your food.

The truth is: a healthy liver is not just a personal responsibility—it’s a national one. When we eat better, we feel better, work better, and live longer.

This World Liver Day, let’s do right by our livers.

Because food is not just fuel—
Food is medicine.
Ur are right but all this "eat that" dnt "eat dis" depend sometimes on yr body physiology n genes. Some people are more prone n sometimes u dnt just understand how God deos his thing. l know a lady that drank Pepsi everyday .she died at ripe age of 101.Same for smoking . Am not encouraging these habit but understanding yr body is the key. Am a health freak . There was a time I punish my body because of fear of diabetes. Anytin sugar I avoid.One time I was driving l began experiencing dizziness . l quickly drove into a very good pharmacy to check my bp/ sugar. My BP was alright but sugar was low. That coke/ Pepsi v been avoiding l drank 2 bottles dt day. l learnt a very bitter lesson dt day. Understand yr body thru regular check up .
