Gaboma: Aubameyang from Gabon.

Yeah, I mentioned him earlier. He is on fire in France. 2nd only to Ibrahimovic in French league scorers chart. Another contender.

[quote author=einstein_e]When was the last time that a player from an English speaking country won the african footballer of the year? 1999. Mikel won't win it.[/quote]Leave this type of arguments to the illiterate street-side analysts.

Stop this pettiness. No anglophone player did better than Eto'o, Drogba, Adebayor, Kanoute, Diouf, Yaya Toure in the years they won it.

The last time I checked same Hayatou was CAF president when Nigerians dominated between 1993-1999.

Let's rise above this kind of school boy arguments.

Adufaye: even at RVP worst,he was a good player,torres at his best was average,rvp is far beta dan him in d last season,he always hv a goal 2 remember in evry season!
Hazard 2 carzola,far diff,age or no age carzola is far beta,uses both foot well,skillful,fast nd vry intelligent,I wuld rather hv carzola in my team!
U suppose use hazard compare wilshere,kagawa,mata,lennon,etc

If you say Torres at his best (Athletico Madrid, first season in Liverpool) is just average, then you don't watch football. You are one of those that started watching football 2 years ago. And did you say you're a Man City fan? No wonder.

Better be.

Because, Kanu played 2 CL finals (1995 and 1996), winning 1 (1995).

Sports › Re: Mikel, African Footballer Of The Year, 2013?? by Jarus(m): 3:55pm On Jun 28, 2013

Mikel did well this year and will likely win it, but luck is also part of the equation.

Luck, because African players have not been having terrific 2013. In fact, if Essien did this year what he did in 2006/2007 when he came 2nd, he would have won it in 2013, because he did better in that year what Mikel did in 2013.

What Drogba did in 2012 and still not win the award, if he did same in Kanoute's year, he could have won it.

These are the vagaries of this award.

Just like what CR7 has been doing in the last 4 years and coming 2nd in WPOY, was, IMO, more than what Cannavaro did in 2006 (and IMO, Kaka in 2007) to win the award. If there were no Messi, what CR7 did is more than enough to win him the trophy.

click2cbn: Well, it will b hard for him to win it since he isn't Francophone! CAF is dominated by French speaking people, wen was d last tym a player from any Anglophone country won it. He deserves to win it, but will Monsiuer Hayatou agree?

Things like these irritate me.

When Nigerians were dominating in the early to late 90's, CAF was still Franco-phone dominated o

This is not a matter of Anglophone or Francophone, in the years Eto'o won it, no African did better. When Drogba, Adebayor, Kanoute and Yaya also won it, it wasn't because they were Francophone, but because they were obviously Africa's best.

When Kanu (1996, 1999), Amuneke (1994), Yekini (1993), Ikpeba (1997) won it, CAF was still francophone-domianted, Hayatou was still the president. Let's leave this kind of pettiness for the illiterate football analysts on the street.

I have also been thinking along this line.

I think he deserves it.

Moses is another player that did well, but not showing at Confederation cup rules him out.

Good for Mikel, the usual African big stars (Yaya Toure, Drogba, Eto'o etc) are only having an average year.

There is one Gabonese guy, Pierre-Augyman or something, that can give him a run for his money. He scored 19 goals in French league to emerge the league's second highest scorer after only Ibrahimovich. This CIV's Winfred Bony is another contender.

Health › Re: Common Unnoticed Causes Of Kidney Ailments. by Jarus(m): 3:28pm On Jun 28, 2013

1. Not emptying your bladder early: Maintaining a full bladder for a long time is a quick way of causing bladder damage. That the urine stays in the bladder for a long time can cause the bacteria breeding in urine to multiply quickly. Once the urine refluxes back to ureter and kidneys, the bacteria can result in kidney infections, then urinary tract infection, and then nephritis, even Uremia.
So, no matter how busy you are, remember to drink a lot of water and urinate regularly. Once you form the habit of holding back urine, it will ultimately damage your kidneys.

Omho, make I go urinary come back read the remaining.

Was on my to the toilet, only stopped to surf thru NL and this the first thing I'm reading....

Applicable on after-discount amount.

Webmasters › Re: The Proliferation Of Blogs - Good Or Bad? by Jarus(m): 4:59pm On Jun 26, 2013

You however have a valid point in what association can bring to a blog.

For example I sent an email to the CEO of a Nigerian bank for interview request to be published on my blog, and she called someone that knew me and explained why she may not be accepting the request. It has to do with my publishing a scoop on INEC chair and a couple other strong political views (then I was combining politics with career as focus of the blog, before I later dropped political blogging.) She didn't want to have her interview published in a blog with negative stories about political office holders, to protect political interest of her bank.

Webmasters › Re: The Proliferation Of Blogs - Good Or Bad? by Jarus(m): 4:52pm On Jun 26, 2013

samkoro: Unlike Linda Ikeji and Bellnaija ,Nairaland is a brand that has nutured rancour and promoted very bitter ethnic/religious friction all in the bid to drive traffic.I'd never seen a forum that provoked ethnic so much ethnic rife-which is not my nature, until I joined nairaland in 2006. This is a forum that started with critism of housa,minorities,christians and Igbos except moslems and Yorubas.Once you react equaly,ur post is either deleted or ur are banned.

The annoying thing is not mainly about what users post;cos they may not mean that in real life,but about how the owner remain partial about the topics they are quick to allow.Political and social topics that are always laced with ethnic bigotery, denigrating one ethnic group or another.It is desperation,very unethical.

That is why you cannot see the young man seun in an ethnically diversified public function.He cannot reckon with his own brand cos of fear of public embarrassment.Other bloggers socialise freely with clear conscence.

Serious companies look out for these things cos they do not want their brand to be dented or caught up in a forum of political and ethnic rancour.

Thats why a Price Water Cooper cannot associate with nairaland no matter the traffic.I personaly decided not to associate with any services or item advertised on nairaland.

You can accuse Seun of anything, but not ethnic partisanship. I don't know why it is difficult to understand that the seeming tilting of forum to an opinion/sentiments is simply because the people that hold that opinion/sentiment are either in the majority or the most vocal. If anything, Igbos are the most officially pampered tribeon NL, just as I agree Islam/Muslims are pampered.
