Claudio Ranieri clears the air on the exclusion of Emmanuel Dennis from Nigeria's #AFCON2021 squad.

ChrisKels:
Did you just hear what MAO said concerning Dennis? He was never invited alongside with others, instead Rohr sneaked in his name late after the backlash from fans when the boy started scoring. So Ranieri was right, Dennis's invite came later than Ekong's, and it was Rohr that did it that way because he never wanted Dennis

Rohr never rated Dennis, he had to bulge to pressures from fans before sneaking in his name to the list. On the other hand, Dennis doesn't rate us either. I don't think he has that Osimhen kind of love for this country. I think it's best he stays with his club while those who have hunger to play come in to don our jerseys..

By the way, most of the speakers on the space are bit pessimistic as if all other countries are doing something fantastic as regards preparation at the moment.

Were you physically with the vehicle when water was coming out from the exhaust?

Yes sir, I was there physically. Some water was also dripping out under the engine.

Dozieson:


And there is no leak from any part of the engine?
This is surprising. An engine that shorts oil, should with be leaking or burning oil.

Burning oil affect all kinds of oil.

It means the lighter oil is leaking somewhere and the thicker oil is not

My assumption too, sir.

Dozieson:


Hmmm. So there is no oil shortage using the oleum? What is the amount of shortage in the 48hrs? Lugbe to garki is less than 25km.

The switch to Oando Oleum was done this week Monday and no evidence of shortage as of this morning.

The last shortage was noticed on 21/12/2021, the oil level then was not up to the lower dot on the oil dipstick. Six litres of Mobil 1 5W30 was used 2 days prior and I practically supervised the change.

I recently changed my car (Lexus RX350, 2007) engine oil with 6 Litres of Mobil 1 5W30 fully synthetic. Two days after the oil change, I noticed my check engine light was flashing. The car was taken to an auto-workshop immediately where the oil check was found to be extremely low, water was seen gushing out from the exhaust pipe and the car was difficult to start. The auto engineer concluded that the top cylinder gasket was burnt and some of the valves were bad after further check.
The mileage on the car was 180,420; no evidence of oil leakage and the vehicle was not smoky prior to the incident.

The top cylinder gasket and all the 24 valves were replaced. The car is currently running smoothly.
Oando oleum SL 20W50 was suggested to be used for a further oil change by the auto repairer.
Is the suggestion a wise one or not?

PS: The oil change prior to the incident was with the recommended Mobil 1 5w30, however oil shortage was noticed 2 weeks after its change and a top-up with 2 litres was done.

Dozieson:


They want to kill the engine with that oleum 20w50. Revert to the Mobil 1

Thanks for your reply but my worry is the oil shortage on 2 different occasions while using Mobil 1. The last incident happened just 48 hrs after the oil change. I only drove it 4 times from Riverpark estate(Lugbe) to Garki Area 11 which is just about 25 minutes drive on the express.

The meat of the matter is everyone should get vaccinated..

The health implications of this environmental pollution on both the young and adults might be devastating in 20 years time..

I hope the government get its acts together and find a way of curtailing it.

Newcastle a Manchester United rival ke? What an insult!

safarigirl:


Is this the final list? Or will they drop some players after camp?

I think that's the final list..

The team list seems fair aside the inclusion of Ighalo and Musa who appear to have passed their primes.

It looks as if the Super Eagles is a now a rehabilitation center for some out of form players.

I would have preferred the inclusion of Alhassan and Amoo (mid fielders) to Musa and Ighalo (strikers).

As regards the exclusion of Dessers, Ebuehi, Bassey and Akpogona, I think they can be recalled back to the team for world cup qualifiers after the Nation's cup.

He is now FIFA errand boy and right hand man in Africa. Infantino is very close to him, he even gets to represent him in some occasions...
This may put him in a bad light amongst other africa FAs and CAF. He could be a saboteur being that the western countries want a postponement or cancellation of CAF and him being close to thjs western block can be used to achieve this plans

Pinnick is playing a dangerous politics while using the NFF as the ladder to achieve his personal ambition

Spot on

As seen on Twitter this morning..

Could this be the exact reason why NFF is foot dragging on releasing the so called 30-man Eagles list?

PurpleHouse:


This is actually the best we have right now. I'm not concerned about the 40 man list though. My own na the main list. As far as Ebuehi makes the final list, I'm okay. Smiles.

The onus is now lie on Eguavoen to trim down the 40 names on the list to 28...

Goodluck to whoever make the cut!

40-man provisional list submitted to CAF by the former Super Eagles gaffer, Gernot Rohr

It looks reasonable though..

Farmchicken:
please I'm having difficulty getting a good mechanic or auto shop in Ibadan, the few I tried keep taking the car performance from 90% to zero.

You can go to Autofixer workshop within UCH, Ibadan or try Skyline Automechanic in UI.

I think Austin is working with the list already submitted to CAF by Rohr....

It is left for him to cut down the 40 names on the list to 28.

Seems there is pandemic of erectile dysfunction sha.. Oga oo

What a captivating documentary! I really salute the audacity, bravery and incisiveness of the journalist.


He forgot to mention the role played by our so called celebrities who flagrantly display their colors openly..

I had a nasty experience in the hands of these frat guys during one of my IJMBE days in KP back then...

Good radiance to bad rubbish.. It's long overdue.

We don’t need Ighalo or Moses.
We now have Dennis & Chukwueze

Or do you think we still need Jay Jay Okocha?

Victor Moses is still relevant to our squad to be honest.

Looking at the caliber of players in the team presently, how many of them can win penalties, make decent crosses and corner kicks for the team? All these attributes are what Victor Moses will add to the team.

Furthermore, his presence may also complement our tall strikers who could make best use of his decent crosses.

For Ighalo, I think we should allow him to enjoy his retirement. He has paid his dues which we profoundly appreciate.

My opinion..

I'm not sure if the heading correctly capture the content of the message

erico2k2:

is that not how it should be? your country 1st?

Definitely, that is how it should be. Africans are crying foul that the high-income nations who put billions of dollars in vaccine discovery and production are hoarding it. They ascribed the emergence of COVID-19 mutant strains to inadequate supply of the vaccine in Subsaharan African but failed to put their leaders to scrutiny for failure to invest in science and technology.

The developed world will always put their own interest first before any other interest.

This level of disrespect against Africans will continue until we put our acts together..

In international politics, It is always about self interest and politics....but self interest first. Not about equity and justice: international affairs is not about these.

When once, G.W. Bush was asked why he banned Japanese steel, he replied: my interest is about American steel makers, not Japanese. I'm not the President of Japan. Mr Trump says and acts America first, but others only act America first where it matters.
