This trend reeks of educated illiterates

At least one should try to understand the history of the Ejigbo people and the Ivory Coast before spewing nonsense. SMH

aswani:
I think past form is not a good pointer to this game, this Ivorian team are about the most useless in the history of their country.

They have ridden their luck incredibly well throughout the tournament and I can't even think of one standout player in their team.

However the beauty of football is the fact that results are not predetermined and anything can happen on the day.

Nigerians are either wildly optimistic or wildly pessimistic. There is no middle ground with us.

Though I agree they won't be a walkover but we are favourites for a reason. However if we don't score by the 20th minute, the game might start becoming more even.

I have been watching the Super Eagles for a long time, I have never seen one that is so defensively disciplined though we never played any of the big teams.

I agree with you, but it will still be a very evenly contested match.

magzey:
What stop them from getting the goals against Nigeria ?
We are still going to win them tonight in shaa Allah.
Super Eagles are in Code'Voir for real business ,they are there for the Gold ,in shaa Allah🪙🥇

A big resounding Ameen to that!!!

Oboto700:
you are mad.. ivory coast qualified with best loosers

Oh really? What an interesting diagnosis, even without seeing the patient? Wow, what a genius. 👏 🙃

Now, if you want to be logical, and not blinded by patriotism. Go and watch their highlights against Nigeria with a clear unbiased mind. The only match the Ivorians faltered was against Equatorial Guinea, every other match, they relentlessly played their hearts out, and only failed to get results against Nigeria in those instances.

I laugh, basing your opinion about them because they qualified as the fourth-best third-place team? Yet they beat Senegal, the defending champs, and Mali (both group toppers) on their way to the finals.

Playing against a host nation whose head to head record against Nigeria reads...
Nigeria 9 - Draws 10 - Ivory Coast 9....After all these you still think they are a walkover? Then I wonder who truly needs a Psychiatrist.

We all want Nigeria to win, but that doesn't mean one shouldn't be open minded, that's the best way to avoid heart attacks.

Truth be told, apart from playing their hearts out, the team need elements of luck to triumph over the Ivorians.

Considering how the group match went, I would say this is a 50/50 encounter, it can go either way.

Forget about this goddamn electoral act bills that brings to change and focus on restructuring the f***ing country.

This is so alarming and embarrassing. And it was this same US that just sold used 10 used helicopters to the Nigerian airforce. Issokay

That's how partners should help elevate eachother.

🥳

thatigboman:
That Osimhen's goal was cancelled based on what exactly?

Penalty at the other end

lexy2014:
can you show me where I asked about the "legal angle" in my question?

if you know that they did their own thru proxies, why does the same EFCC not know?

Then you should direct your question to EFCC

lexy2014:
off point.

if you know that they did their own thru proxies, why does the same EFCC not know?

who are the "we" you are referring to?

I am talking from the legal view of point, if you don't you don't get it then rest. No one is willing to waste their time taking a case they can't win to court. It is not a must you understand or agree with me. Again sentiments and hearsay does not win court cases.

walexbiz:
What of the man that drove bullion van into his compound in the eve of election to share to electorate and nothing came out of it. He didn't show his own blatantly?

Again, an inexperienced lawyer would win this case without stress, even the judge might just dimisss the case. Court cases are not determined based on sentiments or gut's feeling.

1. Bullion vans are not only used to convey cash, they are also used to move valuables.

2. Was there a pictorial evidence showing the content of the vans?

3. Private companies also use bullion vans.

These and other arguments would make a clean judge throw the case out through the window.

lexy2014:

You need concrete evidence to nail anyone, that's why despite all the allegations leveled against Donald Trump the courts are yet to find a concrete evidence to nail him yet, they are circumstantial at best. We all know the biases that exist in our prosecution of corrupt persons, but we must also not lose focus of the fact that it takes concrete evidence to persecute anyone, not a matter of hearsay, or personal opinions.

Xscape1993:
What about Dapo and Tinubu?

All of them are guilty of the same offense, but this man did his blatantly, leaving behind every trace to him, but others do it through proxies. In a sane country where the judiciary works well, there is no way anyone is escaping a lengthy jail sentence for that crime.

And sadly, you know in Nigeria, being in power makes you immune to a lot of crimes.

Stargangz:
Like Oshoala, like Osimhen, both na onekind overhype players, na luck just dey carry dem.

Oga, where your own luck don carry you reach for this life? Person wey win African best 6 or 7 times, nah she dey overhyped? 😒

cococandy:
Imagine if he were dating a black prostitute. Won’t his fellow dudes call him SIMP. They always accept things white women that they can’t even tolerate from black women

As if black ladies don't kill their partners one way or the other too.

The soup be like naija economy. You come lay am for floor like sacrifice to the gods. 😅

Well, nah meal wey go fit hold your stomach firm for 24hrs, she did well.

Onuimo1:
I hope CAF is not playing mind games on our players. I hope the doping test will not affect the Eagles negatively.
And which other countries are being tested in this drug stuff. NFF and Nigerian entourage and contingents should stand up and let CAF understand that our team shouldn't be used for lab tests.

Make them test the Elephants of Cote di voire too.

Oga, it is a random thing, it happens in football and other sports every time, even in club football

Lukuluku69:
Bros, it was not even a war spoil. Outright Stealing.

Can't argue less bro, but to make it more dignifying, "spoils of war", is what the UK and her likes love to call it.

Spoils of war are now being loaned back to the original owners, wow! 👏 What a generous act by the United Kingdom.

Wise man, he didn't allow his anger get the better of him. He didn't go physical with the wife, neither did he exchange words with the concubine.

His mind seems made up.

If I as a man is staying faithful in a relationship, and the woman decides no be a free WiFi, I had better not catch her red-handed, if I do, no mortal can make her remain in my life.

Okay nah

Potential bandits

I don't know why oluomo was impeached but I suspect he fell out with the governor or his colleagues or both.removal of speakers is a norm anyway.i just pmed you

Ok

garfield1:
I think osoba's deputy was yewa.There's always a first time na,records are meant to be broken.the egbas are heavily loyal to APC so it's good to reward them.leaving central empty will be a recipe for disaster besides east are heavily pdp despite dapo and osibanjo presence.again,they will still vote adebutu in 2027 that's if hon akinlade doesn't get the ticket.with yayi being gov,GNI will go to senate.one of osoba will be deputy while dimeji goes senate

Why was Olakunle Oluomo impeached? I am currently not in Nigeria, so I don't know what is playing out. Did he go against Dapo?

No o, Osoba's deputy was Gbenga Kaka from Ijebu Igbo. Again, it will be a big gamble to test the waters that way. Well, let's wait and see sha, the political climate in 2026 will dictate each actor's decision and direction. Leaving the entire East to Adebutu will be too dangerous. Of the about 530 votes of last election, over 200k came from Ogun East alone, imagine a candidate having a bloc vote from there. Well, permutations will be done by the actors.

garfield1:
Ogun east has been producing gov or deputies since 1999.again,they are not united or do not give bloc votes

But have you seen a Yewa/Egba ticket before? I highly doubt the idea will fly

garfield1:
He is a rising star and might end up in senate or deputy to yayi.his father influence wanted under amosun not dapo

The Senate, maybe, but he can't deputise Yayi. A Yewa/Egba ticket is bound to fail, you can't sideline the district with 11 LGAs against 9 and expect a smooth sail. And you and I know that Ogun East is never short of bright candidates every election season.
