Travel › Re: Is It Really Difficult To Find A Life Partner In US Or Canada? by Gamesmart: 6:33pm On Sep 08, 2020
Mbdovey:
I don't know why most men keep saying marriage is not important. What happened when you're old? who will stand by you? Who will take care of you? We all need each other. In as much as marriage is not the ultimate, it's very important.
Those are your (and women's typical) worries.

And it is also typical to see women' projecting these personal fears on men and asking this question.

Most men don't worry about this, girl.

These your worries are yours and well low in the priorities of worries for men.

Men worry about getting sex soon, frequently and with high variety. I am sure you don't worry about this and it being a problem you foresee. It will be well low in your priorities of worries.

A foolish man speaks foolishly.
No.

A foolish man repeatedly gives his money to con men in the hope of future prosperity (sowing seed), and despite no returns/proof it works, he defends the crooks who are living large.

Reality is that, it is hard for fools to know they are fools.

Ogbeni,no one ever said everyone working under the public sector must be paid the same.
It's not a must to type it you don't know what to say. Carry your straw-man argument elsewhere.
You don't have to agree they should be paid the same.

Just explain why they should not be paid the same.

If your foolish and unreasoned argument is that women footballers should be paid the same as men footballers because "It's a national football team,not a private business. ................Whatever differences in revenues generated ain't their fault,they put in their best efforts and are equally passionate about their craft", then explain what your argument is of why cricket players should not be paid the same.

What is your basis based on your own foolish reasoning why they should not be paid the same.

The cricket team is not a national team? They are wearing Nigerian sportswear but secretly representing Togo?

Or cricket is "private business"?

Or they are not putting in their best efforts?

Or they are not equally passionate about their craft?


You people make dumb arguments with so much self-confidence, you now start running when you are asked to defend them.

How exactly are you making sense undecided ?
I made a comparison,as an example,between teachers in different public schools,and why they should be paid equally. I didn't say a teacher and a doctor or some other profession.
You made an argument that people should be paid the same because they are doing a national service, so I gave you an example of others also doing a national service and asked if they should be paid the same too.

So you are now saying that football is not comparable to cricket.

Can out explain explain why you think it is not comparable?

This is nonsense reporting without mentioning the names of these crooks that took bribes to destroy Nigeria's and Nigerians' future.

The crooks are:

Folakemi Adelore and Ikechukwu Oguine

Here is a picture of Ikechukwu Oguine (On the Left)

Politics › Re: FG Weakens Power Of EFCC Chairman Creates Director General In New bill by Gamesmart: 8:26am On Sep 06, 2020
Other members of the board shall include the director-general, a representative of the Federal Ministry of Justice, a representative of the Central Bank of Nigeria, the Director of Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit, two other Nigerians with 15 years cognate experience in legal, finance, banking or forensic auditing and the Director of Administration who shall be the secretary of the board.
This part is the part where the crooks can now control and have knowledge of what the EFCC is doing.

They can stop its investigations or warn their friends on how investigations against them is going.

The EFCC would be answerable to the crooks they are investigating, no more answerable to Nigerians through the President.

It will just become like any other Nigerian institution with a Board: Inefficient and Crooked!

Abi they too are not playing for the national team?

Or is that "private business"?

Or they are not putting in their best efforts?

Or are not equally passionate about their craft?

It's a national football team,not a private business. That you're a teacher working in a government school in a rural area that generates less revenues doesn't mean you're supposed to be paid less than the ones in urban areas.
Whatever differences in revenues generated ain't their fault,they put in their best efforts and are equally passionate about their craft,if not more, than the men.
So should those representing Nigeria in Cricket be paid the same amount as Super Eagles players?
Sports › Re: Brazil Women Players To Get Equal Pay As Men by Gamesmart:
A Business F provides poorer quality products and services than Business M.

Business F workers generate revenues that is about 1% of the revenues generated by Business M workers; and they both have the same number of workers responsible for the provision of the same kind of products and services.

Now Business F workers are paid 30% of what Business M workers are paid but some fools are still arguing they should be paid the same amount.

How foolish can a proposal get and how incredibly dumb can the argument supporting it get?

In a fast developing world it is foolishness to say


"At it was in the beginning so shall it be now and for ever"

How can you still be using type writer in a modern world where everyone is using computer

Our girls have been asking for this upgrade long before this change is becoming a global trend

England Brazil Norway etc are even far better than our male team yet they pay both male and females equally.

In Nigeria's case the discrimination is TOO much

Even if they upgrade is better not to say no
This is a foolish post!

Nowhere has anyone said: "At it was in the beginning so shall it be now and for ever".

What I asked you is: "Now try again to give me a sensible and logical reason why we should do this, instead of this foolish logic."

If you can bring a sensible and logical reason, then it would be accepted and it shall not be like that forever.

A) "Our girls have been asking for this upgrade long before this change is becoming a global trend" is not a logical and sensible reason. Otherwise, our civil servants asking for decades to be paid American civil servant wages will be a logical and sensible reason to pay them such. Foolishness!

B) "England Brazil Norway etc are even far better than our male team yet they pay both male and females equally" is not a logical and sensible reason. It is just a repeat of that logic of foolish followership!

I will ask you to try again to give me a sensible and logical reason why we should do this,

If the big nations are doing it what are argument doj you want to hear.......


Champions do what other champions do ...... Fools do otherwise
It is always foolish to say "do something because A & B are/everybody is doing it".

It is an extremely foolish way to live one's life. Foolish followership!

You have to do something because you have evaluated it YOURSELF and assessed it makes sense (i.e. be it by improving your situation, advancing you towards a goal or fits your requirements) logically.

Because many countries have 80,000 seater world-class stadium is not excuse for Nigeria to build one. How frequently will it be used to pay for the cost to be recovered?

Because many leading regional powers have submarines is not an excuse for Nigeria to go out and by a submarine fleet. Who are we fighting that we need such?

That is the kind of foolishness that leads Nigerian politicians to waste money on White Elephant projects instead of using it for what the country/region requires or what would benefit the people.

Now try again to give me a sensible and logical reason why we should do this, instead of this foolish logic.
Culture › Re: Yorubas, Please Help Me Translate These Words. by Gamesmart: 11:06pm On Sep 03, 2020
StarFlux:
I have another question. What is the general term for someone who plays? I know there are different words for playing certain things like gba boolu and fon fere, but is there a general term for a player? I was told it was osere, but now I'm being told it's wrong.
As someone said earlier, Yoruba words are usually developed base on description.

"Player" can have different forms based on description:

Elere - Used for those playing/taking part in any physical entertainment activity
Osere - Used for someone entertaining by intellectual/oral performance (e.g. acting, comedian, poet etc.)
Agba - Used for those playing/taking part in an activity that involves hitting something (e.g. football, tennis etc.)

So I think all works but Elere is the strongest.

I have never heard the usage of "Alare" or "Adije" as others highlighted.

The. Kind of Glory they bring to Nigeria can never be quantified


1. The best African women's team all these years

2. The female team with the most trophies....... Ghana south africa and Cameroon would do everything to have this record yet we have it for free

3. At least when it comes to female football we have colonised Africa


4. And come to think of it these girls are not given the kind of recognitions they desire

They are most time owed salaries for up to six month..... And they are bread winner of their families



Even if they wouldn't be paid equally let their pay be something Worth all their labour. Imaging if your sister is part of the super falcons with all the hype .... But she can't have anything to show for it. Even borrowing from your parents!!!

And come to think of of it in terms of value will you also say the Brazilian women team brings more revenue than the men? For them to be paid equally with the likes of Nermay Jr. And all the male team?



See the Truth be told Nigeria has not place enough VALUE on the female national team. Its over a year now there is no coach. Yet a week to a tournament they will just appoint somebody yet this girls will grind out RESULT.


See if this is a strength of countries like South Africa I bet you Nigeria can't see their back....by the way they are coming

We need to restructure our female football ...because the local league is going down. We only have Assisate Oshoala and co abroad remaining..

Nonsense!

The glory they bring to Nigeria is in line with the popularity of their sport (aka low).

The female Nigerian team winning African women's Nations Cup is nowhere near half the glory of Nigeria's male team just merely qualifying for the WC.

Successful people who deserve high recognition don't need to ask or cry for it, it is just given.

Messi, Bolt, Tiger Woods, Micheal Jordan etc. did not cry or beg for recognition, people showered them with it (even if they did not even want it) because their sports was popular.

I don't owe them nothing. If they want to be successful and reap the rewards, they will just have to excel.

Michael Jordan did not beg people to pay crazy money to buy his trainers, he just excelled.

If they excel, make their sports popular and their fortunes will improve.

Let them go out and thrash Brazil's or USA's women's national team by 3 goals to nil and you will see how money go hit them yafun-yafun.

It is not by begging and appealing. It is by high quality performance.

That said, women's sports will never match men's sports. That is just a fact of nature!

Well, since it is their national teams, it's reasonable that they'd be paid equally. Of however, they were normal clubs, it wouldn't be so...
Only if the funding is coming from government purses.

I am sure, for Brazil, the government will not be funding football and this money will be coming from revenue generated by FA.

Over 90% of this will be generated by the Male Senior team, so why should the women get paid same?

I doubt the women are even generating as much as the U-20 team.

even if the women cnt get equal pay like the men, at least all countries should show a little bit or respect for the women team because they aint treated nicely in comparing to the men them..
i wish my country would follow suit and at least increase the pay and welfare of the women team so that we stop seeing big trucks thats used to carry tomatoes also used in carrying and Parading our Victoriius women team..
dnt want to even talk about thier bonus and allowances because they are used to being hold and are even tired of going on strike...its jus too pathetic..
The women should play high quality football, market themselves well, increase their revenue generation, then this can be used to increase their pay.

Super Falcons deserve same pay as Super Eagles - Desire Oparanozie


DESIRE OPARANOZIE
The Nigeria women's captain is demanding her side be paid the same as their male's counterparts
Desire Oparanozie believes the Nigeria women's team deserve to receive the same pay as the country's male side.

Oparanozie, who captained the Super Falcons to a Round of 16 finish at the 2019 Fifa Women's World Cup, made the comment at the 2019 Ladies In Sports Conference in Lagos.

In 2018, Thomas Dennerby's side piped South Africa to win their ninth African Women's Cup of Nations crown in Ghana, making them the African team with the most titles.


In spite of the team's successes, they only received US$3,000 as winning bonus and $1,500 for a draw at international outings, compared to the men's team getting $10,000 and $5,000 for the same achievements.

"We are the most successful female team in Africa, yet we have the largest disparities between men's and women's pay," noted Oparanozie.

"I think we deserve equal pay. This big gap tells a different story and a proper rethink of this mode of payment could also help the women's game.

Article continues below
"We have done the nation proud and I think the results over the years are there for all to see.

"With positive results and more success, I believe we will get there, it's one step at a time."

Oparanozie will hope for a positive response from the Nigeria Football Federation when the Super Falcons gather for next month's African Women's 2020 Olympic qualifier against Algeria.
Nonsense!

So what if they "only received US$3,000 as winning bonus and $1,500 for a draw at international outings, compared to the men's team getting $10,000 and $5,000 for the same achievements"?

How much do Falcons generate annually? How much do Eagles generate annually?

Digitization - the conversion of text, pictures, or sound into a digital form that can be processed by a computer.

A good number of the papers or research works have been existing in paper or as black and white(analog format) and where uploaded to a platform in digital format by typing it out as text, or digitized audio and video where necessary. So which of these is too big or complex to penetrate your thick skull.
