Alampasu is at a lower level compared to those mentioned now. So he is not in the convo for now but his time will come hopefully.

How is Alampasu at a lower level compared to Adeleye and Tobias?

The last time I checked both are playing in second divisions of Isreal and Austria respectively compared to Alampasu playing in Latvia first division.

There's more to it than this.

That’s just an anecdote, nobody cares about anecdotes, we need actual data, but of course an illiterate wouldn’t understand that.

Nothing to comment on this thread created by someone who is full of lies. You had better move away from here.

How many more do you want me to mention?

Cheetah Mk2, now denoted as the Rooikat.
These prototypes were designed with technical assistance from a West German engineering firm, Thyssen-Henschel.

The first Rooikats were manufactured by Sandock-Austral.

Foreign investment.

Same German company produced In 1979, Sandock-Austral introduced the Ratel Mk II,

All these are foreign investments in South Africa. If they decide to return back to their countries South Africa defence industry will comatose.

- Egypt have had very poor military results especially against Israel in the past..... So yeah don't what you are talking about what they have shown over the decades.

- The hardware they build are almost entirely licensed built, meaning they are dependent on foreign suppliers.

- they have 0 commonality when it comes to thier hardware they have a whole mixture of Russian , Western and Chinese weapon systems which would make self sustainability in terms simple maintenance impossible.

-As stated above Egypt are highly reliant on foreign suppliers, which means a sanction from either the US, Russia or China would render the majority of their systems useless....

- and ofcourse the SANDF is more sustainable since the majority of its weapons are designed and built in SA...... little reliance on foreign suppliers especially compared to Egypt.

- The SADF fought against an enemy with then state of thee art Mig 21s, T55s,BRT, SAMs ect ect ect.. .. And also against 40000 Russian trained Cuban soldiers. And in the end didn't lose 1 single battle in the entire war and only withdrew because uncle Sam said so.

- The fact that SA has a TDL and Egypt doesn't already shows which has more advanced communication systems.....

-South Africa is the 17th largest Arms exporter.... That would make it a major Arms exporter in my books... Also almost all the hardware built in Egypt are built under license, if Trump or Putin pulls the plug then they ain't building sh1t

Which of South Africa weapons are not under licence?

Please,close your eyes to the title of the thread.
Nigeria indeed has Africa's largest economy. By some accounts, Lagos even has an economy bigger than those of Ethiopia, Tanzania, Kenya,etc. By other accounts, Nigerians are some of the brightest people around- Nigerians, they say, are the most educated immigrants in America, and the smartest family in the UK is Nigerian.
*Nigeria has huge deposits of minerals.
*Nigeria has enough arable land to feed the West African subregion.
*Nigeria has great animal breeding potential.
*Nigeria has two universities in Times Higher Education ranking of top10 universities in Africa.

The list is endless. So why is the country still like this?
So many reasons have been adduced for Nigeria's present situation but the one that resonates most with my own thinking is this: Nigeria and the north itself must be rescued from the northerners. I don't know how you see it, but to me, whoever controls the politics of a land controls pretty much everything else. We can not expect the country to progress at the level we desire while the largely illiterate north remains in control, because they will continue to hold the country back either through acts of commission or omission. Reason why I said even the north needs rescuing from itself. Just a personal opinion though.
But inspite of whatever it is that is responsible for Nigeria's present situation, there must be something we can do to push Nigeria forward and lift millions out of poverty, even if marginally.

And anybody else interested in national and international economics and finance and how they affect Nigeria's progress.
Your 2 cents,please.

The problem are not the northerners only but it has to do with the mindset of almost all Nigerians.

The mindset to think about oneself above the collective interest of the country.

Nigerians as a whole needs to change their mindset and inculcate the mindset to think and for others first before themselves.

obaaderemi:
You this guy!

You caught the dude on his balls.

He can lie and twist.

soetanoreoluwa:
Small small.. Let kick start this first...with time... It will increase

Abeg, make una update me once the league kick off.

soetanoreoluwa:
10 clubs will pioneer it
20million naira for winner

T V sponsorship deal sealed

400million naira for the kick off

All the participants club must have their own Stadium...

Now, this is sounding interesting.

They should increase it from 20m to 500m. If possible, 1b.

All those clubs go abandon npfl join sharp sharp.

obaaderemi:
That would be about the tallest building in Africa!

Well, it's possible if yenagoa of all places can have a 17 storey building.
One thing I like about the new Yenagoa building is the fact that it's purposeful, not some vainglorious structures Kenyans build just to compete with Africa's largest economies. The Yenagoa building is the Nigerian local content building.

Exactly! It will put Calabar into limelight. I hope it comes to pass.

There's another one before this but it has been abandoned by the successive governments. It's about 18 stories as at the time it was abandoned.

Heard 75 stories project is going on in Calabar.

Visible studies is currently on going.

TheSuperNerd:
I updated with follow-up posts naa. Keep up my good man.

So yes, two games in November. We are back! Even flirting with the possibility of a friendly in October before then coz there is a window in October too.

Oh! I see. Not easy to keep up here ooo.

Anyway, thanks for the information

Edopesin:
At the highlighted

Afcon qualifiers resume in Nov abi am I missing something?

Really!? Na wa ooooo. I don zero my mind till next year.

TheSuperNerd:
Wrong Egbon. We are playing in November. Two Afcon qualifying games. Double header against Sierra Leone. The issue now is whether we will play a friendly game first in October before the competitive fixtures.

Really!? I thought I saw your post the other day that showed CAF postponed all matches till next year.

Then this is great new.

barackodam:
But Jamaica sef no get matches naa

Well, I don't know but I know Jamaica is really on his neck to play for them.

I actually read this on the net.

Edopesin:
they're eager to cap Kalvin but not Saka?

shocking

They know they still have more matches to play this year and Nigeria has none.

Probably, they might call him for one of those matches.

You think say them no get sense. Anyway, my observation.

R2bees:
Ebere Eze to Crystal Palace £16m. Here we go!!!!

Are you kidding me! That's a good one.

Edopesin:
Jack Grealish in the Premier League:
• 36 Games

• 8 Goals

• 6 Assists

• 9 MOTM

Kalvin Phillips in the Premier League:
• 0 Games

• 0 Goals

• 0 Assists

• 0 MOTM

Last year Southgate said that Jack Grealish must gain more 'Premier League experience' to earn a call-up

#Copied

Low budget Keshi

Their aim is to cap Kalvin because of Jamaica is really interested in him. Na d wayo brain behind dis call.

ChrisKels:
Honestly I don't see where Saka fits in, in the Super Eagles. He won't bring nothing new or special to the team, hence I really am not moved by whatever decision he makes. If he comes to us, fine, if he doesnt, fine.

To me Ebere Eze is the player we NEED

Hmmm!

andrewbaba44:
How is Porto useless ?

I hope you are not among the people saying Porto don’t like Nigerian players

Because they blocked him from going to Ligue 1.

andrewbaba44:
Fredrick kanoute world class ? If I hear

What was he? Somebody wey win UEFA cup twice with Sevilla.. He was.

charlesemeka85:
He isn't good enough but moving to France will enhance his recall since we still lack good cover or ndidi

I hear you. Not good enough but dey win motm in Portugal and Turkish league.

If not that useless Porto he should be in the French Ligue by now.

charlesemeka85:
Agu joining Nantes will earn him a recall to the national team.

I thought you were among those saying Mikel Agu is not good enough?

quickberry:
My argument is that he was injured, he wasn't benched.

Ok

quickberry:
Says who?

I don't need to use google, he was injured not benched

His days in Juv wasn't successful.

charlesemeka85:
Who and who be world class? U really knw the meaning of world class?

The aforementioned players you listed.

charlesemeka85:
Freddie kanoute won the apoy award but does it mean he was world class?

Adebayo won it to remember

Both are world class players. Fact

quickberry:
We are saying the same thing.

I agree with you but I was referring to his statement.

charlesemeka85:
Oga I watched amokachi play, he was good but not special.

Why was he nominated for African footballer of year? Don't forget he placed second and third.

quickberry:
To me and people around me who watched him in his days, he was special.

Amokachi no special!? Very laughable.

Buthe was nominated for African footballer of year twice. Won Ebony award in Belgium twice. That was when it was among the top leagues then. Na wa ooooo.
