Learn to ignore anyone who brings up these names in conversations about the Super Falcons (Onyenezide, Ajakaye, Sebastian). They are not to be taken seriously. I can assure you they haven't seen th se folks play football in the last 1 year. Imagine suggesting Deborah Abiodun be replaced with Esther? These are not serious takes and they should be treated as such by ignoring.

Number 13 player of current SF is a total waste of position. She does not have any football flair. A complete "jambody" in a colloquial term. She is not better than the aforementioned players in age grade competition. I guess Nigerian meritorious mechanics got her into SF.

COOL10:
Ashleigh Plumptre, Payne and Alozie are the only good players in this match.

I guess Plumptre and Ohale maybe Alozie are the good players in the match.

COOL10:
Ashleigh Plumptre was definitely the woman of the match, for me. Her touches, her passes, her crosses, her movement and her positioning were all on point.

This is one of the best matches I've seen her play for the Falcons. Superb performance from a very technical player.

One of the few figures in the Falcons of NIgeria with football acumen.

Jojodjo:
Ask yourself who she'll have replaced in the squad
Is it Ayinde, Abiodun or Ucheibe?

Players with numbers 13, 14, 18 and 21 do not have any business in Falcons.

KosiGee:
Atrocious errors like the one from Demehin shouldn’t be happening. Silly back passes like that and lack of spatial awareness shouldn’t be happening to a player like Demehin

She has never shown a quality for Super Falcons.

Balli wetin?

People wey no fit generate beyond 5k megawatt of electricity won do Rocket science.

I guess they thought firewood is used to ignite ballistic missile.

Iranians should drop the name of Nigeria from their Islamic lunacy.

Once a group of people sold their birth right, it is impossible to regain any respect from the buyer. It is all about 1966 and Biafran/Nigerian war.

It is entirely idiotic to watch Nigerians talk about education or lack thereof. Education is not limited to be formerly given a paper from a square block of concretes called schools.

Ndigbo simply do not want Nigerian government in Igbo land. Ndigbo want the Republic of Igboland.

Nnamdipapa:
I hate tribalists and racists but you know the people I despise the most with a passion? THE HYPOCRITES who never take a STAND.

At least if you are a tribalist, try and be sincere with yourself and take a stand for your belief and, you gain my respect for practicing what you preach.

Here are scenarios I find hard to wrap my head around and it goes like this;

If you are an Igbo man who hates a Yoruba person, hate Nigeria but live in Lagos or any of the western states, I hate you and you are lower that a piece of shit because of your hypocrisy.

If you are a yoruba person who hates the Igbos but love one Nigeria, you are against the dividing of Nigeria, you a a SCUM, a TURD, a SUB-HUMAN and lower than a piece of SHIT.

As much as I has tribalists, I utterly despise hypocrite who do not take a stand for their beliefs.

For me to respect you as a tribalists, you must hate one Nigeria, admire/clamour for the secession of any part and live in your own region.

You cannot live in other's regions and claim to hate the same people or love Nigeria. You have to pick one and stick to it.

You cannot work or do business in other region and claim to hate Nigeria.

You cannot hate other regions and claim to love one-Nigeria.

You have to take a stand Mr Hypocrite and, practice what you preach.

I am angry this morning.

EISH!

Idiotic rationale of a typical Nigerian. At least, it is on record that Ndigbo had attempted to secede from the land mass called Nigeria. Even till this post, Ndigbo want out of the crap called Nigeria. It is pure circumstance the forced Ndigbo to Lagos or any state in western region.

This fool called Reno Omokri could get lost in his damned village. He had to refer to slaves in Brazil to get validated. What a dunce. No wonder he is scared to death when disintegration is suggested for Nigeria.

The test of the pudding is in the eating. I want Nigeria to disintegrate so that Nigerians can actually know who feeds whom.

Obiedun:
Ikwere is not igbo. An outsider is now leading you people. I will soon contest that post

You can only contest if you know your roots and ancestral wellbeing. You must discard the element idiocy and make yourself acceptable to the rigors of membership. The membership of Ohanaeze is not limited to may shouts of " I am Igbo! I am Igbo!! I am Igbo!!!

I’m Not Igbo, and Nothing Will Ever Make Me Identify as Igbo – Wike
https://247ureports.com/2025/01/im-not-igbo-and-nothing-will-ever-make-me-identify-as-igbo-wike/

On Sunday, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), stated that he does not identify as an Igbo man.

He revealed this information during a media chat in Abuja on Sunday while discussing John Azuta Mbata’s election as the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

A few weeks ago, Azuta Mbata was elected President-General of Ohanaeze in Imo State. He succeeded Fidelis Nze Chukwu, who served out the term following the passing of former President-General Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.

Good for Wike not being Igbo. Does anybody lose sleep because Wike is not Igbo? Wike does not have the intellect to be Igbo.

This useless caption "There Are Lots Of Talent In APC That Can Form Great Economic Team" could be mistaken for There Are Lots Of Talent In Nigeria That Can Form Great Economic Team. Nigeria is dead-end.

A statement without iota of inferential proof.

yoruboid:
Ahead of the 2027 general election, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has endorsed President Bola Tinubu for a second term in office.

Ohanaeze stated this in a statement signed by its Deputy President General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, on Sunday, where they appealed to the President to use his executive powers to facilitate the release of Nnamdi Kanu this 2025.

According to Isiguzoro, the release of the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, shall serve not merely as an act of mercy, but as a vital catalyst for restoring peace and resolving the current insecurity challenges plaguing the Southeast.

Isiguzoro maintained that the South-East deserves a path toward stability, noting that peace cannot be achieved in the shadow of violence and discord.

The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation also advocated for the acceleration of ongoing rehabilitation and reconstruction projects of dilapidated federal roads throughout Southeastern Nigeria, under Senator David Umahi as Works Minister, insisting that Southeastern infrastructure remains the backbone of economic progress and social cohesion. He added that it’s non-negotiable that these projects are completed before the end of 2026.

The statement reads, “The Apex Igbo Sociocultural Organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, firmly frames this critical discourse around the sanctity of Nigeria’s unwritten gentleman’s agreement concerning the rotational presidency between the North and South. This covenant, which stands as a pillar of our democracy, must not only be acknowledged but must be steadfastly upheld to promote equity and fairness amidst our diverse tapestry.

“With the conclusion of an eight-year Northern presidency under Former President Muhammadu Buhari, from 2015 to 2023, we firmly assert that it is now time for the Southern region to claim its rightful place at the helm of leadership from 2023 to 2031. This principle of fairness compels us to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s bid for a second term in the upcoming 2027 elections.

“In our assessment of the current political milieu, the glaring weakness, disarray, and lack of coherence among opposition political elites expose a perilous landscape for governance. Individuals such as Atiku Abubakar, Rabiu Kwankwaso, Nasir El-Rufai, Peter Obi, and Sim Fubara may mean well, but the reality is that their capacity to mount a serious challenge against the APC is dubious at best. It would be a reckless endeavor to engage in political maneuvers that align with figures who offer no substantive plan for progress.

“Ohanaeze Ndigbo cautions that any attempt to co-opt our organization as a vehicle for misguided political machinations must be met with resolute resistance. The political ambition of the few should not be allowed to hijack the collective aspirations of the Ibo people. We cannot afford to gamble again on opportunistic alliances that have historically undermined our unity. Our people still bear the scars of the ill-fated endorsement of Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi in 2019, a move that has reverberated painfully through our communities and the fabric of our regional integrity.

“In this crucial juncture, we pivot towards constructive action. We urge President Tinubu to utilize his executive powers to facilitate the release of Nnamdi Kanu by 2025. This pivotal step will serve not merely as an act of mercy, but as a vital catalyst for restoring peace and resolving the current insecurity challenges plaguing the Southeast. Our region deserves a path toward stability, and this cannot happen in the shadow of violence and discord.

“Moreover, we strongly advocate for the acceleration of ongoing rehabilitation and reconstruction projects of dilapidated federal roads throughout Southeastern Nigeria, under the stewardship of Senator Dave Umahi. Our infrastructure is the backbone of economic progress and social cohesion; thus, it is non-negotiable that these projects are completed before the end of 2026.

“The foundational need for accurate representation in the upcoming 2025 Census must also be addressed, particularly the incorporation of ethnic and religious demographics that reflect the true population of the Igbo people across Nigeria, especially in the northern region. It is our belief that such representation will further empower our voice in national conversations.

“Additionally, the creation of new states within Igbo land—Anioma State in the South-South and Aba State in the Southeast—will enhance our governance, representation, and socio-political relevance.

“We also highlight the urgency of revitalizing the Eastern Economic corridors, which require strategic reinvestment. Initiatives such as the dredging and reopening of Calabar Seaport, the revival of Enugu Coal Mine, and the establishment of the Akwete Blue River Deep Seaport in Ukwa East, Abia State are paramount. Furthermore, upgrading the railway framework from Port Harcourt to Maiduguri and enhancing connectivity within our towns, including Onitsha, Owerri, Okigwe, Abakaliki, and Awka, will solidify our region’s economic potential.

“Ohanaeze Ndigbo’s endorsement of President Tinubu for a second term in 2027 is decisive and reflects our commitment to a trajectory of peace, stability, and infrastructural development for the Southeast. We call upon our members and all Igbo people to align with this vision, setting aside parochial interests in favour of a united front that champions genuine progress for our region.

“Our focus is clear: we seek harmony, resilience, and a brighter future for the Igbo people, woven together by the threads of infrastructural enhancement and an unwavering commitment to security and wellbeing. Let it be known, our allegiance is to the progress of the Southeast and the integrity of our identity.

If the above crap is remotely from Ohanaeze, then the organization has turned into a child's play.

Twisted historical jargon. At best, Ooni was a shrine keeper.

Igbo Amaka!!!!

OduduwaNow:
It is time for Ohanaeze Ndigbo President to come from Rivers State.


Why didn't any body from the over 60 Ibani Bonny villages and settlements that make up Bonny Kingdom contest?

Why didn't anybody in the 15 Ibani Opobo Kingdom contest?


No body from Abalama, Finima, Kalaibiama, Oloma, Ayaminima , Iwoama, Bonny main town, Opubo-ama main town among others contest?


Shey you guys keep deceiving yourselves that they are Igbos?




@General Ditari.

Most Nigerians tend to show knack for inherent stupidity in issues that bordered on ethnicity At least, a person has to be a member in good standing within the organization to qualify to contest. Besides, he or she must be a person of substance not a freeloader.

TimeManager:
Eze Godspower Onuekwa, the President-General of the Ogbakor Ikwerre Cultural Organisation, recently made a notable video statement on Symfoni TV, addressing rumors about potential leadership appointments within Ohanaeze Ndigbo and issuing a stern warning to members of the Ikwerre community.

The statement responded to ongoing speculations about the future leadership of the influential Igbo cultural organization and its potential involvement with the Ikwerre people.

Onuekwa began his address by acknowledging that some rumors may contain elements of truth. He noted that there were circulating claims suggesting that Ohanaeze Ndigbo might appoint an Ikwerre man as its President-General.

This remark pointed to the ongoing conversation about leadership roles within Igbo and southeastern Nigeria’s cultural organizations.

The cultural leader quickly refuted the idea of such an appointment, warning that any individual from the Ikwerre community who would accept such an offer would be viewed as a traitor.

Onuekwa emphasized that such a person would effectively become an enemy of the Ikwerre people, underscoring the importance of loyalty and cultural identity in the face of external influences.

The Ikwerre community, which is often linked to the Igbo people but maintains a distinct cultural identity, has faced growing attention and speculation regarding its relationship with larger ethnic organizations like Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

In his remarks, "It is now rumored that Ohanaeze Ndigbo intends to make an Ikwerre man the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo. Any person, no matter how highly placed, who may decide to accept this offer eventually becomes an enemy to the Ikwerre people."

A fool who tends to look Ijo by his outfit yet called him or her "Eze" is very irony. IN addition, the statement that Ohanaeze offered position to anybody goes to level of intellect that harbors this dude. Those who rumored to have won the coveted of the presidency of Ohanaeze are bona fide members of Ohanaeze therefore entitled to contest.

TheRareGem1:
The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has said the initiated e-border surveillance system has been effective for border security.

This initiative, launched on December 14, 2024, at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu Technology Innovation Complex, aims to combat irregular migration and enhance border security.

In a statement made available to Sunday PUNCH, the minister stated that the technology recorded significant progress since its deployment.

Tunji-Ojo added that one of the most remarkable outcomes of the e-border system was its role in identifying and capturing persons of interest

He also mentioned that the integration of INTERPOL data and other national security databases had significantly enhanced the ability to detect and respond to threats at our borders

Within a few weeks of the operation, the minister said the system successfully flagged and detained individuals with criminal records or suspicious activities.

The statement partly read, “Since its roll-out, the e-border surveillance system has proven highly effective in curbing illegal migration, one of Nigeria’s longstanding border security challenges.

The project employs cutting-edge automation and monitoring tools, enabling real-time surveillance across Nigeria’s extensive 4,447 kilometres of land, air, and sea borders.

“The Nigeria Immigration Service, which operates the system, has deployed advanced e-border solutions to over 80 crossing points nationwide. These solutions integrate data from INTERPOL and Nigerian security agencies, allowing seamless identification and interception of persons of interest.”

Bunch of fools who tend to borrow phrases to look human.

onuman:
The whole of the Niger delta region today is supposed to look like Dubai if there was no divide and rule and exploit propaganda of Ikwerre no be Igbo.

Ikerre no be Ibo is a divide and conquer and exploit propaganda spurned by elements in the north and southwest Nigeria during and immediately after the Nigeria/Biafra war.
It led to today's continued exploitation of the oil and gas deposits in the Niger delta region to develop the southwesr and north of Nigeria. A paltry payment of 13% from derivation is what is left for the oil producing areas of the Niger delta region.

Entire southern Nigeria without western region. Yoruba prepared dish from the hellish grocery of One-Nigeria organized by Gowon and northern Nigerian elders.

Who the hell is Mbata? What has he done for anything Igbo in Nigeria? Nigeria is a zoo due to the silly voters.

horlando30:
You know that there at least 8 divisions in the army with their GOCs? Only 4 GOCs were mentioned above. Mainly nothern divisions. Did you see any southern division there. You should atleast see all the divisions before making baseless inuendoes. Do you think you know better than the chief who chose a general from a different region to over see a command in the North. Imagine choosing a fulani to head a mission to resolve fulani-farmer crisis for instance. Wouldn't you complain about a potential bias?

Believeintruth:
Only one igbo was made commander of armored corps.

The so-called armored corps could be a recon or recce unit.

PulaPower:
Mtchew..

Majority of them have been holding that position even before tinubu becomes president... Was he suppose to sack them because of their tribe?

Then people like the Chief Justice of Nigeria, she was the next senior justice to the previous Chief judge... was tinubu suppose to ditch her because of her tribe?

Emma Ike is sick in the head..

Does it matter? Tinubu had added serious numbers to the majority.

Most everything about Nigeria is rife with ignorance.

Ndigbo have been made to be teachers and nurses in Nigerian armed forces while Yoruba and Hausa get command of divisions and brigades. Some fools will tend to stress Biafran/Nigerian war ended in 1970.

Reno Omokri is a canteen rat of all times.

I am impressed with Syrian rebels!!
