These awards are always one kind...

The men and women goalkeepers of the year didn't make the best XI.

And Koulibaly ahead of Ekong? Seriously??


Anyway, Osimhen and Lookman made the XI, so we're good so far

JayromWrites:
Any link to watch?

BannedLarge:
Hakimi has landed its Obvious that he is probably the winner SMH on CAF politics. I blame nigerians for not doing enough PR for lookman

isan:
NFF didn't release any statements, I've checked all their social media handles and I didn't see any statements from NFF

BankyGee:
Please sir, any links to NFF's statement? 🙏🏾

Samueltemi337:
Same old story every year
Nothing is stopping Ademola Lookman from winning

Zahra29:
Lol, me "much bitter about Nigeria"? Why, how, when? 🤣

Kemi's comment has serious security implications on Nigerians here and in the diaspora? Why, how? 🤣🤣🤣

I was taking you seriously but now I can see you're just joking around with these hilarious comments lol

I encourage you to read, re-read and meditate on James Clooney's posts 😂. He's made some strong, rational points.

Jamesclooney:
She can be Tory leader and still be a closet activist na 😂 Unlike Rishi, she’s actually lived in other countries (Naija, USA) for extended periods of time, so she has something to compare with, firsthand. She’s embracing her heritage, staying authentic and being Tory leader at time. Nothing wrong with that.

Jamesclooney:
Rough transcript of the interview -

Interviewer: Do you trust the British Police?
KB: I do. But remember my experience with the police in Nigeria was very negative etc.


How’s the above not relevant? Naija police was her baseline position. So British Police is a huge upgrade to her. Like it was previously attributed to KB, her job is not to do PR for Nigeria. She wants to expose everything. Nothing concern her, burn the house down…maybe that’s her own way of fighting for the common man. Fair enough I say in this particular instance.

PS - I hate Nigerian politicians, so hopefully this causes her enough embarrassment for them to change (wishful thinking)

Zahra29:
What questions have I dodged? I have littered this thread with my responses and here you are saying I'm dodging questions 😂

"Reckless takes" ....."emerging activist/separatist"....🙄

All because a woman shared her past experiences and personal views.

You need to chill with these histrionics 😵‍💫

Zahra29:
I actually lived in Nigeria for a few years so I know a little about your so called "complexity of the Nigerian state".

Complexity doesn't mean that you have to pretend about reality and respond emotionally when someone speaks facts as they are.

AgentXxx:
I see you dodging some questions and some part. She mention the people of the north and also there are our ethnic enemies. Or Is Bokoharam now an ethnic group? Did you fail to read that 😂. Abeg I give up on this. Stick to your understanding of her. The End is near, we just need patience . We would all be here to see it 😀

Something is wrong mentally with the team. It has definitely gone beyond just Rodri's absence.

lavida001:
Her next podcast will be about yahyah Bello stealing 80billion and paying 500 million to gain his freedom.

Jamesclooney:
I just watched the video, and I have to say, this is actually fine by me. I dare say, most of us that relocated from Naija share her perspective on UK policing, 24/7 power, good roads, etc. that initial culture shock that hits you and I have no issue with her expressing that viewpoint. In fact, she even went further to say that British policing should be held to a higher standard (God forbid we compare Naija Olokpa to British police). On this particular issue, I’ll absolve Kemi of any criticism. The others, however, still stand!

lavida001:
These back and forth clearly indicates that Nigerians are not angry about what the likes of Shettima and tinubu are doing to the country. They are simply angry because it’s not them or their uncle doing the stealing.

How can you possibly be angry at kemi for stating the obvious.

Carton of noodles is now 10k, people only eat once a day and you lots are hear blowing grammar.

10 years from now it will be thesame story. Why can’t we just call a spade a spade and maybe things will change .

missjekyll:
She should just keep Nigeria out of her mouth and face the dispatch box. At which she is failing woefully making it harder for any other Woman of colour to get into the position.

She is 1 week ,2 trouble at this point.

Addendum: Nigeria should keep her out of their mouth too. She is not a Nigerian. Leave her alone

Jamesclooney:
Kemi is atrociously bad but I agree with your general point.

Labour doesn’t feel any different these days with figures like Keir Starmer, Rachel ‘from Accounts’ Reeves, David Lammy and Angela Rayner, to name a few. Perhaps it’s nostalgia, but I miss the era of truly formidable politicians on both the left and right. The same issue exists across the pond (Trump & Kamala). Or is it that the internet has stripped away the mystique surrounding politicians/leaders? Just feels like the bar has been lowered drastically.

Goodenoch:
New day and I'm still in shock that Badenough thinks Northerners are her "ethnic enemies"..

I wonder how that person who wanted her to be their daughter's role model will rationalize that bigoted view to the young child while also teaching her not to judge people based on their ethnic origins.

Zahra29:
I, and the rest of the world, saw and heard many Nigerians complain very bitterly about the Nigerian police during #endsars. It's not some kind of family secret that Kemi has exposed

There are lots of comments on X and YouTube from Nigerians supporting Kemi's comments about the police. The Nigerian police may have been good to you but many have far worse stories to share than stolen shoes.

I'm not sure what the issue is here - that she lied or that she had the temerity to speak about her own experiences in Nigeria?

Like one poster said, "Kemi isn't Nigeria's problem. Nigeria is Nigeria's problem"

Your anger should be directed towards the Nigerian police and government, and not towards people who speak out against their corrupt actions and brutality. Learn to hold your government to account. Smh

Atk1nson:
She is just a lady with a strong inferiority complex that believes denigrating cultures of supposed third world countries will show her allegiance to white Britain and the current Reform voters.

Of what relevance is her constant negative depiction of Nigeria to her role as a candidate for prime minister?

At that level, her public speeches not just random off-script talk. She has been taking her time to rehearse speeches with messages to denigrate her countries she thinks will make her look good.

A very shallow lady.

The british police have been raping ladies, one even topped it with murder not long along. She probably sees the police everyday but has nothing bad to say about them.

It is the police in Nigeria she hasn't interacted in for many decades and cultures of countries she know little about she talks about and takes every opportunity she has to denigrate.

She is the kind of child the yorubas call "omo ale". Such a person will sell her parents for money if the price is right.

Zahra29:
Lol 🤣 so Ms Enoch is not allowed to speak of her lived experiences?

She spoke calmly of HER negative experience with the Nigerian police to illustrate the dichotomy in her view between a bad police force and a proper one - to explain why SHE trusts and values the British police force in contrast to the police she experienced growing up in Nigeria.

She didn't lie or denigrate, she spoke plain facts which I'm sure many Nigerians can relate to, and even worse, at the hands of the police.

Link to the relevant interview clip below.

"The police in Nigeria would rob us. The police stole my brother's shoes and his watch. It's a very poor country, so people do all sorts of things."

UK will likely return to the EU or have a better migration arrangement.
But mk dem cool down first- they need 30 yrs in the wilderness afterall, honey moon with the commonwealth is still in progress.
It's one issue I was a bit sceptical about when voting LibDem the last time as they were the only ones preaching a return to the EU. You can be rest assured that if a referendum in held today, I would be voting against a return. My family never too plenty for here- one or two still never land.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2024/sep/20/eu-youth-mobility-proposal-uk

The Labour government has been discussing/exploring the possibility of a youth mobility scheme with the EU

It would be amazing! if this deal goes ahead as it would directly benefit young Brits and open up opportunities for them to study and work experience in Spain, Germany and other destinations. It would be a two-way movement unlike mobility schemes and other visa arrangements with the likes of India where 500,000 Indians want to come to the UK and only five 2 Brits are interested in going to India 😂

I have some refunds (about £1k) made to my credit card. If I withdraw it, will it be seen as withdrawal from credit card with it's associated effects?

Also how can I withdraw money from Amex?
