Are these boys really 17 and below....

I don't agree.....most of those guys don't get to enter decent foreign clubs except a few.hence,their talent and development is lost.A decent ckub woul rather go for their own rather than an african.

But the reality is that things get better after a successful U17 outing

Magu abeg help me catch thieves

During the finals of the U17 world cup, you could literally hear Nigeria players on the bench screaming, 'abeg..abeg..move forward, we need to win so that our lives go change.' I heard this more than once on that day.

Those words reveal the mindset of those boys going into the U17. They are passionate to escape a life of hardship. This translates into team hardwork.

We only had 2 exceptional players in that team and they themselves were spurred by that mindset.

When they finally make it and graduate to the senior level with all those juicy club pays, their level of commitment and hardwork reduce. This is the reason why our senior teams do not perform to expectation.

The talent is there but lesser commitment to national duty.

Who else agrees with me apart from lalasticlala

#1500 should be ok

She had to front the pics of someone else. Some people's actions show they don't appreciate themselves at all

chizobamgbume:
Very serious. She schools in owerri and believe me she didn't wear that to church. The op is fake and attention seeker. The girl on that pic na Aba brought up.

Seun..lalasticlala..farano....someone is saying that that picture is his cousin' s picture. OP is an impersonator.

Please kindly verify and do the needful. Thanks for keeping nairaland sane

chizobamgbume:
That's not even her picture, that picture belongs to my cousin Amarachi.

are you serious?

If there's something that gives me joy in life, it's when I help in in my little way. Givers absolutely never lack.Life is beautiful when we help those around us . Sometimes I always winder what it will be like to have millions in my account, I may not even be happy, There remains a void in my heart when I see people living in abject poverty.

I have a true story to tell.
I happened to meet a young girl if about 12 while in school. I came home from lectures to see her moving around my hostel. I asked why she was there and she told me she needed to see one of my hostel mates who obviously is not around. From the disappointment on her face, I asked her if everything was fine.She narrated to me a story about how hungry her family was, and the fact that her mom sent her out to borrow money from my mate. I asked her to take me to her mother. It was an uncompleted building and I didn't know how somebody can live in that kind of place with grasses everywhere. I feared for snake bites as I approached the mother.I gave her quite a fairly good sum and told her not to return it. As it was living the compound in a haste for fear of snakes, a iron rod dragged my leg, ripping the last toe on my left feet.This woman and her daughter didn't know what to do, at some point, I noticed they were begin to feel bad, I had to hide the deep pains I was feeling. The blood trailed me back to the hostel. It was a deep wound and so I had to visit the hospital to take injections and dressings of course. For over a month, I limped. But I have no regrets. When i look at the scar on my last toe, I remember that sometimes we may get in trouble for trying to help somebody, but we must also remember that it's pays to have a beautiful mind, it soothes the soul.

wow

Hahahaha

The lamentations of a sacked aide.

crownprince102:
sentiment apart, we are what he really called us..... Africa needs to be recolonize has he said

lol..no need for recolonizing bro!

vimi:
African countries got quick independence n failed to perfect the trade of governance. So many things were not put iin place b4 colonial masters left.

Africa iis still clothed with with enormous personal greed! Until loots are invested iin Africa retrogressive flight will persist.

So sad that a Continent blessed with alluring brains end up iin drains

Hmmm!

Lalasticlala do you agree with this?

rubii09:
We need to change our mentality period !

I agree with you, it's more of a mentality thing

I was on facebook today and this post caught my attaention. It is worth sharing!

What is wrong with Africa?

Not long ago, an American presidential candidate and business magnate, Donald Trump was reported to have made this statement about Africa;
“Look at African countries for instance, those people who are stealing from the government
and go and invest the money in foreign countries. From the government to opposition,
they only qualify to be used as a cases study whenever bad examples are required.”
He went on to say;
“How do you even trust those who have ran away to hide here at the United States hiding
hiding education? These are people who import everything including matchsticks. In my
opinion, most of these African countries ought to be recolonized again for 100 years
because, they know nothing about leadership and self-governance”.
I’d say that it is not in only in Africa that these kinds of issues that Donald trump raised can be found. But again, when you travel around Africa, you see a people producing the same result of leadership incompetence.
In Africa, when you mention leadership, a whole lot of people’s mindset will go political. This is a gross misconception. Leadership is a virtue required in every facet of human endeavors. The political leaders you see are just reflections of the kind of majority of people you find in the streets or anywhere within that clime.
You find people lacking the basic skills in everyday life but they want to prove leadership qualities in politics, forgetting that one can be a leader as a lawyer or doctor. One can equally be a leader in business, sports and even our respective homes. Some have been meant to believe that there are born leader. This is wrong.
Leadership is not something you inherit from your father. Because your father was a leader as a pilot does not translate that you his son or daughter is automatically a leader in pilot.
Leadership is the capacity to inspire others to positive actions through vision and purposeful living. If Africa is having leadership issues, it means that there are few people who are using their capacity to inspire others to actions through vision and purposeful living. It means there are less people willing to sacrifice personal advantage, comfort and advancement for the sake of a noble cause that impacts others.
Africa is far from being poor. Africa has got a lot of gifted individuals who fail to work together harmoniously on a long term vision and commit with integrity and loyalty to the country or long term vision, because the individuals fail to resonate with them a passion that will inspire others to help achieve the stated goal or vision.
There is no passion because of no clear cut purpose. It is when a person discovers a sense of purpose that it produces passion for pursuing it and that passion inspires others to want to join in the pursuit of fulfilment. This is the single reason why African leaders fail, hence the cause of the little laudable achievements in Africa!
The political leaders have no clear cut purpose and direction hence their failure to inspire the masses for positive actions.
In Africa, you find a lot of schooled but uneducated people. You can be schooled but not educated and that is what a lot of people don’t know. You become literate by going to school and schooled by investing in academic literatures but education is your investment in applied knowledge in your area of calling.
In times past, around 300bc, Africa was leading in education in almost every facet of human endeavors; from architecture to medicine, preservation, mining and smelting. A good number of great philosophers and writers had education stints in Africa. Intellectual development is the key to transformation and high level leadership qualities. Africa needs to recover her educational heritage!
This will have to start from a renewed mindset; a mindset where everybody will walk tall in the comity of nations and stop answering ‘third world’, a mindset where the government will not depend on aids from countries but will seek to develop the human resources within his clime.
Every government should also pass stringent laws to publicity firms and media houses on airing documentaries that depict Africa only as a poverty stricken neighbourhood. These images greatly affect people’s perception of Africa. Africa has got the potentials to be a lending hand to western nations and not just a receiving hand.
Leadership centres should be set up across African nations where practical and lasting principles of leadership would be instilled in the citizenry. Those principles should also be introduced into the curriculum of conventional schools.
There is indeed hope for Africa!
