The next two years will be pretty interesting.

Sowore should go home and visit his family. That nigga hasn't been home (New Jersey) since 2016. The small daughter he left there is now in uni

OasisX:


....PBAT also spent ₦1B plus too. LOL!

Easily 50 to 100 times that amount

Even Alex Otti would have spent 5 to 10 times that within the same party but for Governorship

OasisX:


......Obi no dey give shishi yet he dropped ₦800m and over ₦1B spent on his ambition. If Baba wants give shishi nko? Na to spend ₦1T. LMFAO

That is still only about $2m (on exchange rate then)

That's quite small for a Presidential campaign and good value for the result it achieved. It won't be up to 25% of what Tinubu and Atiku used to buy delegates alone.

Governor sef fit spend 10 times that amount on a Governorship campaign

Which one is false?

Do you need confirmation from TASS?

GrammarNazi1:
The PDP was seen as an Igbo party. Therefore, the PDP was cardinal and more important than any other condisideration to Igbos.

If the PDP fielded a stick, it would win in the South East.



"A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and former minister of aviation, Osita Chidoka, has said the South-East geo-political zone should back the party in the 2023 elections, claiming that it would be unwise for Igbos to leave the party they have supported since 1999."

"He added that advocates of an Igbo presidency outside the PDP are not wrong, but maintained that the main opposition party is the shortest route for the Igbos to clinch the presidency."

PDP is not an Igbo party and the true intention of the majority of Igbos is not reflected in our National politics

PDP only became an Igbo and Niger Delta party when the rest of the country ported to APC leaving Igbos and Niger Deltans stranded with Goodluck Ebele

They had no choice but to stay with Goodluck. Had it been Yaradua that was president then. Igbos would have moved to APC - caveat, by Igbos, I mean their political class not the majority. Most Igbos don't care about the zoo.

Y'all are the real MVPs, man


You Yoruba guys who took insults from your own tribesmen and even strays from others (yes, I admit it) just because you wouldn't bow to the ridiculous idea that Tinubu was some sort of esoteric God who had prepared for Nigeria since when he was in his mother's womb like the prophet Jeremiah.

Iamoyindamola/Sod09 is another person I deeply respect, particularly because he's Muslim.

Igbos voted OBJ twice (even over Ojukwu), Yaradua (over Okadigbo who was Buhari running mate then), GEJ and Atiku. When e reach Obi turn them say we dey tribalistic.

Most of the original post was to praise Blueraydick and iamoyindamola, but look at the kasala you caused with the bolded last paragraph

The stagflation and economic activity that has flatlined since 2022?

Not only stagflation, na bullflation

What is Russia inflation rate today (albeit fake) against UKs - 7.5% Vs 4%

Russia interest rate today (16%) - indicator of real inflation - is close to Nigerias and more akin to the interest rates found in a banana Republic

Go back to TASS and bring us more jokes

Picture of COVID dip in 2020?

Amigoss:
Lmao,Egbon ibime doing the Antony spin

One could argue that Sanctions caused that of russia, what caused the "mild" recession of Us and Uk?

So now you agree that Russia entered deep recession since. QED.

The important question - did TASS ever tell you Russia was in a deep recession? No, instead they told you Russia is the biggest economy in Europe (jokes).

But UK media announced their own recession, albeit very mild, they announced it factually.

Difference between propaganda and facts.

Amigoss:
West troll farms like you and your propaganda sources changed the definition of recession when it happened in US,lool

There is no change in the definition of recession. Recession is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. They may only define it as mild or deep recession depending on the percentage decline or unemployment numbers .

How come Russia had 4 consecutive quarters of deep GDP decline (over 4%) and your sources didn't alert you? We have seen how UK alerted us officially for -0.1% and -0.3% for 2 quarters.

That means your sources have been feeding you unparalleled bullshit which you regurgitate here as fact with confidence.

Once anything is brought up, people will come to muddy the waters. Mostly because they can't stand to be wrong.

I think User is of the opposite view

I think he is supporting the view that data shows that Yoruba were less tribalistic in voting patterns

Amigoss:
Which one is propaganda sources ...you said the sanctions would hurt Russia meanwhile Russia has moved to become the largest economy in Europe while Germany and UK are both in recession....

Another propaganda nonsense. When did Russia become the largest economy in Europe? Russia is the 5th largest economy in Europe by GDP and almost last by GDP per capita (GDP divided by population)

Everytime you type, you regurgitate your sources which are absolutely trash

Recession is defined by two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth and you said UK entered recession before Russia. How many consecutive quarters is this? Count your teeth with your tongue.

Ballzproblem2:
the Southampton scout is the reason you have palmer,our problem is coaching not recruitment.


I dey the ones that are playing football? abi na them tell poch to be clueless against low block teams.

So na only Palmer be success story out of £1bln spent

They should all be sacked!

Gallagher is a funny player,they want to get rid of you ,look at the wage you are demanding.

giving them legit excuse to sell you for pure profit

If Chukwuemeka is on £100k and Raheem is on £300k, why would he settle for less

I think the problem is tournaments gather casual football followers who don't understand tactics

Iwobi did well. In the tournament as a whole only Chukwueze and Zaidu performed below par

Some had bad games like Aina in the final but I think someone or the coach should have sent backup to be double teaming Adingra earlier

Shitt happens. We overperformed expectations. Painful but I can't blame the boys

Actually for some reason, na this AFCON I follow pass in the last 12yrs even followed it more than the 2013 we won cos that one I no watch any game till we played CIV

I can remember our starting 11 in 1994, 2000 2002 2004 etc but not in 2013

I have vivid images of goals and actions on 1994, 2000 2002 etc but can barely remember anything about the last 5 Afcon till this one but I remember every Bayern CL game in that time

I guess that was the time Naija football lost me na this tournament renew my interest in Naija football

I think WFH and reasonable kickoff times is the reason this AFCON gathered more viewers plus advancements in IPTV and streaming services

Apart from the above, I was turned off by previous tournaments because of obvious old men we were parading. I can't be developing HBP watching 40 year old men like Yakubu, Taiwo and Utaka fail to press their side, while Okocha and Kanu can't keep up, and Yobo is a step behind on every play. When I see tactical gaps and overloads caused by obvious reasons such as age cheating, I dey quick vex. At least this time I could see that every player was agile. The only one who looked slightly over the hill was Zaidu

My well respected elder brother, I have been to 27 states in Nigeria (if you include FCT)


I won't try Biski for the first time outside of Potiskum. If someone I know wants to try Kilishi, I'll go get from my plug who is supplied from Birnin Kebbi. I live in the home of Bole and, I tell people to come eat Fisherman soup for the first time in Jevinik, GRA. My first Amala will definitely be in Ibadan.


There's a reason you remember Enugu when you hear ọkpa. England una

If you have people from all these different tribes in the same place, you can try all these without going far

In the shop where I buy prepacked food, you can see any soup from any part of Naija.

The only thing I am yet to find here is Epiti and Ipopo (what you Igbos call Onunu)

GrammarNazi1:
This is actually one of the most delicious soups I know, yet there is no hype about it.

EfoRiro is Edikaikong pro max. Same thing but the tatashe base in EfoRiro elevates it far and above Edikaikong

Infact I discovered the way we cook Yam Pottage in the South is totally rubbish compared to Yoruba version that uses Tatashe base. Now I only cook Yampo with Tatashe

dostr4:
I don't want to indulge with chukwueze & zaidu because they were literally non existence in the match, but you see iwobi he deserves every dragging coming his way.
You speak more about midfield play & I can tell u Iwobi was shiite.. that's why eye test is probably better that stats. Iwobi was usually hiding behind players , loosing markers & if Frank was doing the dirt job, wat was iwobi doing ? At some point I felt he was too deep..who then was suppose to link the midfield to attack.
The shot leading to the corner they scored from iwobi was too slow/ late to realise. I could go on & on.

You are wrong my brother

Iwobi is being blamed for the tactical set-up and lack of AM

Iwobi was in a double pivot with Onyeka. They both had marking and pressing duties on Fofana and Kessie respectively.

Everytime they got the ball, their only triangle was with the fullbacks or defence because there was a man missing in the AM position. Either they play a sideways or backward triangle or a percentage ball into space for the winger which the winger may or may not get.

FYI, Onyeka only completed 10 passes in that match, Iwobi completed 20

Iwobi was not responsible for the shot played by the centre back. Iwobi had his midfield man and that shot was Osimhen shot to press, or an AM if we had one. .

Iwobi had to leave his man to try and press that shot. See below. You already have 2 midfielders marking 3 opposition midfielders and now expect one of those 2 midfielders who are already overloaded to step out and press a centreback?

Meanwhile you can see 2 centrebacks without men to mark. That's what Peseiro formation does, it gives room to our centrebacks to coast with excess numbers to spare, while our midfield carry too much weight

Iwobi performed well in this tournament and in that match. His only misstep was a miscued clearance (bouday) which landed in the box and did not amount to any harm.

For the first time, and you bought it in England? Is this nigga serious?

I have tried more new things in UK than I did in Naija. Met more Yorubas here than I ever did in Naija and ate their foods which I never ate in Naija

I first ate EfoRiro in this country and now I don't eat any other soups except Efo and Fisherman soup
