That was the foul that gave England red card na.. two yellow cards for the player.
Honestly, our ladies tried, I'm proud of the team.

Folks like this Joe Abah are the problem we have in this country.. selfish and insensitive to plight of others.
What stops an FCT indigene from becoming FCT minister if not that the Abah is insensitive?.. other States have State governors from their state but FCT should not have indigene of FCT as FCT minister.

Ideally, the FCT minister, senator and reps member ought to be indigenes of FCT not the sham arrangement we are witnessing. They wamt to turn FCT to no man's land so Ifeanyi can come tomorrow to drag FCT minister.

When his Tinubu sending troops to Niger

If he doesn't send troops he remains a c@ward
Empty cheat beater

Point of correction Tinubu hater.. President Tinubu is not the one sending troops to Niger republic but ECOWAS; a sub regional body which he chairs currently.

Don't make it look like Nigeria versus Niger republic war for your own good.. even if anything, pity your relatives and immediate family members.

What these smaller countries like Burkina Faso and likes backing Niger republic junta don't know is that they can't do much in isolation against the erstwhile colonial powers like France.. it's got to be a collective thing, a dialogue through established bodies like ECOWAS and AU.

For God sake, what does a thirty something year old Head of State in Burkina Faso know about global politics and balance?.. What chance does he stand against the big guys when they come blazing with guns, bombs and all?.

Good one, before Easterners will spin the story to Tinubu's hatred for Northern Nigeria is reason he wants to invade Niger republic.. their desire is to see North and West at logger heads.

Ofunaofu:
I hope you will be at the fore front of the invasion

Not behind your keypad typing here on nairaland

Grow up

proeast:
Don't mind him. They will be in their decayed houses in SW and be talking about war in another man's backyard. Bring the war to them and see them preaching peace. I pity Northerners that don't seem to understand these people and their hypocrisy.

Almost every single Yoruba man is advocating for war against Niger republic. A war they know will ravage North and destroy whatever is left there. They apparently hate Northerners but are afraid to display it openly so they resort to cunning ways of destroying them in the name of restoring democracy in Niger republic.

This coming from someone who desires Military takeover in Nigeria simply because his tribesman Peter Obi lost presidential election isn't surprising.

We know you hope the junta succeeds so uprising can fester in West Africa with the hope you'll someday get biafra.. You'll be disappointed once again when democracy is fully restored in Niger republic and peace will come back to West Africa.

FYI, I love my country people including Northerners so your theory of hating the North holds no water.

Fugazy2023:
No matter the amount of noise you people make, Nigeria will invade Niger republic and reinstall democracy.

As it stands now, Niger republic will be invaded by Ecowas troops and democracy will be restored..
When the troops will move in is what nobody knows.

We will protect the people of Niger republic by first restoring their democracy..
@OP You must be a very wicked soul to be protecting junta in this way and manner

ECOWAS get the money.. It's part of their responsibilities to ensure the will of people in ECOWAS countries prevail through a duly elected democratic government so let them proceed as agreed.

Bad influence.. If that coup in Niger republic is not crushed now, then a time will come when democracy in West Africa will be history.

No going back biko.. whatever will be will be.

Saboteurs who thrive in anarchy.. civil rule and democracy will be restored in Niger republic. The war won't last up to a week before those coup plotters will surrender, I mean they are far outnumbered so no possibility of survival for any of them.

You for carry yourself come enforce sit at home in Lagos na.. as per werey wey una be for that side (no offence meant) make hands touch una small. Yeye!

Yorubas are the most successful both at home and abroad.. the olojukokoro noisemakers that want to steal Lagos through Chinedu have been put to shame.

The best Universities are in Yorubaland

The best healthcare institutions are in Yorubaland

The best movie and theatre industry is in Yorubaland (while some are busy pirating other people's sweat up and down).

The most indistrialized region belongs to Yorubas.

The best performing region in terms of IGR and other human indices belongs to Yorubas.

The most hospitable and habitable region is South West, Nigeria (no sit at homes or flogging of people's parents in the markets).

Anyone that can counter all these with facts is welcome to do so.

You didn't answer my question.
Should Africa keep its resources to itself?

Talking about dumpsite, Adesina should have listed
the products he considered to be dump.
Aside from high tech goods, automobile and arms,
China and India has taken every other sector of Africa's imports.

It is easy to talk but to act is very hard to act.
Nations do not become manufacturing hub through talk and activism,
they do it by acquiring knowledge and having the right infrastructure.

Suppose you are on the other side(the west) and you have the power to grant wishes.
Are you going to say, Okay, since their is poverty in this content and I buy oil
and Uranium from them.
Let me give them all the knowledge and tools to make Boeing Airplanes to compensate.

Countries that become manufacturing hub didn't do so by talking or demanding for "rights".
Currently, a lot of manufacturing is being moved from China to Vietnam by western investors.
Is it because the west love Vietnam? Absolutely not.
This is a country that is a one-party dictatorial state, whose majority
population does not speak any of European languages.
It is because of what Vietnam have to offer, technical-know-how, infrastructure
and political stability.

Barring any unforeseen change, In few decades, people will be talking about Vietnamese economic
miracle, just like that of China.

Look at South Korea, a country much poorer than Nigeria in the 50s and 60s, now a global
manufacturing hub. Did the west hand it a manual for tech progress?
Nope. They got where they are through planning actions.

I just cringe whenever I see African leaders complaining about the west not caring or exploiting.
Africans aren't children to be looked after by others!

Hmmn.. I understand all you've said perfectly.

Asides mental slavery, blacks in Africa are mentally lazy. Like you rightly said, no country will hand down free knowledge to Africans but even at that, the past colonialists shouldn't go about playing Devil's advocate, sponsoring coup d'etat and whatnot to destabilize the African continent.

I hope blacks will one day rise and reason collectively to say NO we've had enough of slavery.

ivolt:
Do you mean Africans should stop selling its oil and minerals and keep it for themself?

Do you remember Adesina of AfDB?.. he was unjustly persecuted for speaking the truth that Africa with all the resources should be the manufacturing hub of the world and not the dump site for all sorts of products from coumtries overseas.
It's okay to do fair business with Europe but it's far better for Africans to think "production" instead of "consumption".

ivolt:
What do you mean by the bold?

They should stop exploiting us in Africa.. it's only when its time for climate actions and whatnot that they remember Africa but when it comes to standard of living and poverty in Africa courtesy of Europeans, the world looks away.
They should stop taking resources away from the African continent and stop impoverishing black people.

That's likely an Igbo person talking.. they like taking the wrong side.

Everyone has a price including those so called coup plotters in Niger republic.. if you check well, one country that wants to recolonize Niger republic from hands of France is giving those soldiers morale.
It's when war starts that they'll know you don't rely on people in times of trouble.

The coup plotters still have till midnight after which they'll bear the brunt of their stupidity.. the ECOWAS troops will eventually capture all of them either dead or alive.

Jahwinaboy:
Nothing is coming. All these are gimmicks and threats expected. Algeria,Northern Nigeria, Chad, Ghana are not even seeing War as an alternative.

The military chiefs wouldn't be talking of military intervention in Niger republic if plans are not already underway to enter the country and return the duly elected democratic leader..

I have a reaaon to believe Niger nationals have infiltrated Nigeria through our porous borders in the North waiting to launch an attack on Northern Nigeria and FCT. The COAS should make full preparation for internal defence of North up till FCT cos anything is possible.

Iamzik:
Nothing is coming. Leave Niger alone to determine their destiny.

How many African countries invaded Nigeria despite many coups?

We have enough problems with economy and terrorism already. Why add a war that is absolutely none of our business to it. Tinubu is tone deaf as usual and this may just be the last straw

Evil prevails when good men fail to act..

Evil of coup d'etat shall not prevail in Niger republic. Democracy must and will be restored.

Pray for Niger republic.. I hope the coup plotters are prepared for what is coming; sorrow, tears and blood.

War is coming.. I saw our soldiers and their colleagues from ECOWAS countries dressed in ECOMOG kits trooping into Niger republic.

While I am for return to democracy in Niger republic, PBAT and other Ecowas states should move to stop former colonialists from taking natural resources away from Africa, if possible, we should have our own benchmark currency in Africa and no country in Europe should take a pin from Africa again.

I almost made this same comment on here some days back that Obi and his supporters are the ones making our neighbors have high disrespect for PBAT and Nigeria.. it's as if that poster is right inside my mind.

The legal team of PBAT should sue Obi and LP for defamation and get them to pay heavy fine for all the damages they have caused. I think it's time to review and pass the Social Media bill cos some people have shown they can't use the internet reasonably.

Maximum respect to our amiable President Tinubu.. ogbon agba on display.. mo fo.

It's the same question reasonable people like us have been pondering on since like forever.. not like the unreasonable ones who only think "Japa" to go and live as slaves and third class citizens in the White man's land.
Africa shall rise one day.

Pakute:
Make NAF biko extend the cocktails to southeast.

Comrade off your mic

I see Ganduje's hand in Kano.. Gwarzo na big name there and close pals of Ganduje.
Bayelsa people sha, which one is Heineken again? na so dem like bottles reach?.

Workch:
Go to Sudan and Libya. Go and see how easy it is.

ECOWAS can and will destroy Niger republic and still send relief materials and aid to them when democracy returns. That military junta won't stand.

Workch:
Imo state has the largest gas reserve and you want to connect it to Europe so corrupt polticians from Ogun state and Kano can embezzle money

The gas in Imo belongs to the FG so remove eyes from it.. all mineral deposits within Nigeria's territory belongs to the Federal Government in accordance with the constitution of FRN.

FatherOfJesus:
it won't be an easy fight for ECOWAS. Trust me.

It's not as easy as you think. A lot resources including uranium in Niger and iron ore in Guinea is at stake. Even China is some how in this war by proxy

It's way too easy my friend.. It's just the people there that is making ECOWAS thread with caution.

Niger republic can't stand Nigeria's Military might on a norm talk more of combined ECOMOG forces with support from AU troops, It's going to be an overkill trust me.
