Only beast of no nation would be claiming to be from PH, Anambra, Rivers, Cross Rivers, Cameroun and even Sabon Gari.

As for us, we only have one town, which is our homeland.

I think we should apply the Solomon wisdom as used on the two women who claimed the baby. Those of us with only one baby are the true owners of the baby.

As for previous questions raised on Diobu, I have already said that Diobu is one of the original lands purchased by Lugard, perhaps the most important piece of land.

It doesn't take a historian to know where the original PH is. Travel from Diobu through Lagos Bus Stop, through Aggrey Road, through Churchill and Harold Wilson and what you see is old colonial architecture. Of all these areas, only Diobu is Ikwerre.

From D-Line up to Chiba is all new buildings, showing how PH has spread north into Ikwerre lands, and don't be surprised if PH expands to reach Aba one day. In my childhood, even Elelenwo was considered outskirts until the building of oil mill market, now PH has extended through to Elele, Choba, Oyigbo etc. In my fathers day, PH did not extend past D-Line. Our family house in D-Line was virgin bush when it was purchased in the 50s, so I guess Rumuola, Rumuomasi, Artillery and the rest were still villages then.

This sh@t is funny as hell. . .but true!!!

@ EzeUche,

See you head like PH Boy. Your family bought properties in PH whilst we have it handed down ancestrally. Who knows you in PH? Ikwerre and Okrika boys don't bother themselves with inane arguments over who owns what, only upland interlopers like yourself. Imagine pulling up Duncan Mighty song. Did you not know that everyone named in Duncan Mighty's song is from the old Rivers State? If you are a real PH boy, you should know at least 2 people name-checked in the song. Please speak to Abagworo if you need educating. We have PH boys amongst us even from Anambra, we all grow up together. My guess is you only visit PH, never been an indigene.

How many people named in that song do you know personally, fake PH Boy?

That song is for PH boys. We all know each other. Duncan Mighty is a Port-Harcourt son, you are not, just an interloper.

Original PH was from Aggrey Road to Nnamdi Azikiwe road. 80% of original PH is Okrika land whilst only Diobu-Rebisi ws Ikwerre land. Contrary to the assertion of fake-PH boy EzeUche, PH never extended into Okrika land. PH extended into Ikwerre land. You cannot expand into water. There is no Ikwerre settlement beyond Diobu, whilst the Colonial buildings on Aggrey Road should tell you that was the administrative hub of old PH.

Why not?

When someone is a disaster, its best to just cut your losses early. People laughed when Fergie sold Veron for £13m after buying him for £28m, but it was Chelsea who had to face the financial burden of carrying a dud through to the end of his contract. Likewise Shevchenko who we coulda sold for £8m a year after his purchase.

Torres hasn't done anything for 2 years and I say the probability of him finding his mojo back is slim.

If you read the EFCC file on Odili (its available on PDF if you google search) and the sheer billions he looted through his conduit, Arik Air boss -Ikhide-Arumemi, its enough to make one weep for Rivers State.

Let's not even go into the burning of George-Ama, Okrika and murder of its townfolk. Besides corruption, the crimes against humanity committed by Odili's thugs (Ateke Tom) there is enough to send him to the gallows.

Did someone say £40m is the asking price for Neymar?

Ninja please!!!

Meanwhile can someone tell me when we gonna sell some strikers? Its looking like OVERLOAD in the striking department. Is anyone willing to bid even £20m for Torres?

Why una dey hate on Alabo hat na?

I'm one of those Ijaws with English first name and surname, and even ma middle name is not Nigerian. Hehehehehe.

Don't be surprised that a lot of these Ijaws answering Igbo names are actually slaves who having lost their Igbo identity preferred to take English names than Ijaw names. It wasn't worth taking Ijaw names since the Palm oil trade brought them to Ijaw land, they might as well find an English name that would make trade with the gringos easier. Such is the case with my family.

Please, this is not the 90's where Sergeant Rogers dey patrol for hatchback Peageot with common cock-and-shoot.

Sergeant Rogers no go last one day for Niger Delta where boyz dey use Night Vision goggle and RPGs.

Young is a brilliant signing. You can't go wrong with a hardworking, direct, results-focused player like Young. I like players who don't mess around before delivering. That's why I like Ashley Young. He does the same trick everytime, cuts inside and delivers a pinpoint cross to his strikers head. Besides, Fergie will use him as the third forward whenever Rooney or Hernandez are injured. How I wish Chelsea were in for Young.

Roy Keane's public criticism only came at the end of his United career. Lest we forget, he was literally sacked for constantly haranguing Cristiano Ronaldo and Ferdinand, a laughable event given the fact that Roy Keane is a minion compared to Ronaldo in terms of status and ability. It was a case of a player having delusions of grandeur and acting way above his status. In hindsight, both Roy Keane and Ruud Van Nistelrooy should feel embarrassed for ever having clashed qwith Ronaldo.

Can someone please tell RA to cop Dusan Tadic?

Its not often you see a midfielder combine vision and composure with strong running ability.

Im happy to hear that Barry Mcguigan is interested in the welfare of Young Ali's family.

Rubbish, Secondary School attendance in South-South is in the 60% range.

Anderson is pacy, and used to have a Gareth-Bale-esque burst of acceleration prior to his last knee injury at Porto.

coogar:
same can be said of

rooney
drogba
hernandez
kuyt
tevez

and many more world class strikers.

All these are strikers whilst Anderson plays in condensed central midfield where touch is key. Besides, I would never agree that Rooney and Tevez in particular have a poor touch.

BTW, you forgot the worst culprit - Kenwyne Jones!!!  

coogar:
composure
dribbling ability
speed
guile
verve
panache
aggression
comfortable in possession.

should i say more?

You forgot to add that he also has the first touch of a r@pist and the distribution ability of an epileptic.

Reading the grammar of some of Ohakims "job beneficiaries" who campaigned for him on NL, I am happy that Rochas has cancelled the visionless political stunt set up by Ohakim to buy some cheap votes. Lest we forget, Ohakim only revived those 10000 jobs a few weeks to election having duped the prospective applicants of their administration fees 2 years ago.

Of what use are jobs which are not productive? Perhaps the only supporter of Ohakim's aimless job scheme would be proponents of Keynesian stimuli theory, as the only societal benefit of those unproductive jobs was to stimulate consumption.

I have no doubt that Rochas would create meaningful jobs to replace these useless jobs.

I believe in Rochas.

From his numerous scholarships to his participation as a member of MEND's Aaron team, I am of the opinion that although he may not be squeaky clean, he has wisdom, application and most of all, empathy for the common man.

Going by comments on this thread, I can see that the mind of the Nigerian youth is more polluted than their forebears. Who cares about "which zone won" when none of these motherphuckers ever did a thing to better the lives of their villages much less their zone. God forbid that I or any of my kin should line up behind any of the current set of political vultures in the guise of "supporting my zone". In the jungle called Nigeria, halfwits pop champagne at the chance for someone of the same ethnic stock to join the Federal lootocracy.

Bruma was quite horrid at CB for Leicester. I didn't see him playing DM at all, maybe the last few games when I was out of the country.

How good was the Gokhan Tore?

Nobody spent $200bln in 4 years. Nigerias yearly budget is about $27bln.

Jonathan must be SAMSON cos if he pushes the wall down, the wall will fall on him as well as the Philistines.

Empty rhetoric.

Whether you like El Rufai or not, figures don't lie. Soludo said the same. Men lie, woman lie, numbers don't.

Good news. Dem Ekiti boyz should keep it up.

Only in the jungle called Nigeria will the Chief of Police be begging a suspected criminal to turn himself in.

I don't know why Manure fans want Giggs to retire. Everyday no be Christmas. One poor game doesn't mean his legs are gone. Giggs was the one who eviscerated Chelsea, rescued United from several games where the likes of Gibson were phucking up eg Blackpool. And if ma memory serves me right, he created the assist for Rooney against Barca, no? True, he may not have the legs to close Barca down (neither does 29 year old Carrick BTW), but he can still win a lot of 3 points for Utd next season against the likes of Blackburn, Sunderland etc.

Diego Benaglio was excellent in Euro 2008 and the subsequent season for Wolfsburg but he is no better than Schezny, and an expensive player to buy just to equal Schezny. Fraser Forster should be available on free transfer from Newcastle and is also of similar quality to Schezny.
