Liverpool v Manchester City. I knew it! UEFA wants to get, at least, one EPL team to the semi finals! They need the marketing grin

Anyway, it's Great draw for the neutral, but nightmare for both sets of fans! I will expect a City victory on this one. But watch out for Barca vs ManCity in the semi finals tongue

Meanwhile, here's how the rest of the draw would pan out:
Barcelona (ESP) v Roma (ITA)

Sevilla (ESP) v Bayern (GER)

Juventus (ITA) v Real Madrid (ESP)

Semi finals:
Barca [/b]v ManCity
[b]Bayern
v Juventus

Finals:
[b]Barca [/b]v Bayern

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi: What Governors Earn In Nigeria Is Immoderate by Icon79(m): 7:46pm On Mar 15, 2018
But what is the salary of Nigerian elected politicians a secret? That's unheard of in an advanced society.

Those folks are public servants and they are being paid by Nigerian tax payers which means that their salaries and all remunerations should be public information. The tax payers have the right to know what their leaders are earning!

Thank you! That's one thing that gets me riled me most about all these silly comparisons between Messi and Cristiano. Yea...yeah, Cristiano is better because he has scored more goals than Messi.
First of all, all goals are NOT created equal. Watch Cristiano's mostly tap in goals and compare them to the masterpiece we receive from Messi.
Second, football is much more than goal scoring. If you really wanna make a legit comparison, then you gotta compare their overall body of work in the game and tell me who's superior. For instance, with 28 weeks gone in La Liga, Messi has more goals, assists, shots at goal, completed dribbles and created chances than any other player. Now, where's the comparison?!
Third, the two players don't even play the same positions either. Messi is a #10 whereas Cristiano is technically a #7 (forget the fact that he wears jersey #7).

And I can go on and on ....

Hey, listen, if you wanna argue with me, argue the facts and don't try to put words into my mouth. I did not say anything about Cristiano scoring a penalty goal in the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League. What I said is that about 20% of ALL the goals he have scored in the UCL were either penalties or offside goals. Those are true statements. A quick google search would show you that one Cristiano Ronaldo has taken (and has scored) the most penalties in UEFA Champions League.

Haha!! About 20% of all the goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo were actually from offside position or from dodgy penalties. Against Bayern Munich alone (last year's UEFA semi finals) he scored 2 penalties and 2 clear offside goals that were allowed to stand. Tells you everything you need to know about the conspiracy in the high places - some folks are determined to do whatever it takes to run up the numbers for Cristiano Ronaldo so he can challenge Messi.

gosh, they even awarded him a Ballon d'Or in a year his team didn't win any silverware whatsoever!

They said that he can't perform without Xavi and Iniesta - he proved them wrong
They said that he can't do it without Neymar - he proved them wrong
They said that he can't do without Pep Guardiola - he proved them wrong
They said that he can't do it outside of La Liga - he proved them wrong having destroyed the best teams in Europe
They said that he can't do it against EPL opponent - he proved them wrong, because he has scored against EPL team more than anyone else

But don't expect them to give up yet ... they'd keep looking for reasons, grasping the straws and moving the goalposts. But in the end, they would all confessed that Leo Messi is the B-E-S-T player to ever play the game of football.

At time 40:00 to 41:00 Bishop Oyedepo talking to Graduates of Covenant University talked about the importance of Impact. He explained that without impact there was no way church members would leave Lagos where many other churches(which are very good) existed to come all the way to Ota where Canaanland is located. He cited an example of an individual who comes to worship at Canaanland all the way from Germany for Sunday service. According to the Bishop the individual flies in on Sunday morning and flies back at Sunday evening to start work on Monday(The Individual presumably owns a Private Jet)
