obembet: Bad news forManchester United fans as thier captain Harry Maguire decided to leave the club
Harry Maguire has come to light as the Red Devils captain set to leave Old Trafford
The England defender has fallen down the pecking order behind Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martnez, Victor Lindelof and even Luke Shaw in a dramatic fall from grace after his big-money arrival four years ago.
Maguire moved to United from Leicester in 2019 for £78.3million, which made him the world’s most expensive defender after eclipsing the fee paid by Liverpool for Virgil van Dijk. He penned a six-year contract after two impressive seasons with the Foxes, but while he remains the most expensive defender in football history - it is difficult to suggest that he has been worth the outlay.
Now he is set to leave the club with his international career potentially on the line, though is struggling to find a suitor willing to continue his £190,000-a-week wages.

Naijastrapmedia: moment palmpay agents arrested debtor at eatery after tracking him
A video that has gained widespread attention online captures the moment employees of a prominent online loan company apprehend a customer believed to have failed to repay a debt. The video depicts the company's staff, accompanied by security personnel, tracking down the customer at a restaurant where he was enjoying a meal. Despite attempting to escape, the customer was stopped by one of the security guards. The agents verified the customer's identity using a photo he had presumably provided during the loan application process. The customer pleaded with them to allow him to make a phone call to his mother as he was being taken away.
N3TRAL: It's amusing when adults think like kids. To believe that Tinubu will lose in court must be associated with low IQ and emotional intelligence level.
Hope is not enough to stop Tinubu.
The Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court will not cancel the elections or declare another candidate winner.
Stop wasting your resources, keep your house together and fight back in 2027 at the polls.
Imagine for a moment, the state the nation will be in by 2027.
It's not too much of a stretch of the imagination, just look at Buhari.
Kingsmeal: Just a week after Bola Ahmed Tinubu was sworn in as President of Nigeria, some of his Supporters have began to regret their actions, maybe as a result of the hardship being inflicted on Nigerians as regards the 'recently' removed fuel subsidy.
In a Twitter post, the ardent Tinubu Supporter wrote;
Warl0ck: God, please give Tinubu and his govt the power and ability to pull Nigerians out of poverty, tribalism and restore peace between Christians and muslim.
You serious right now?
A man that picked a fellow Muslim as running mate and insulted Christians by saying it's competence he went for, and has already tripled the price of petrol?
He's already doing the polar opposite of what you're wishing for!
The person who will do these things, whoever he or she is, does not bear the name Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
N3TRAL: For tomorrow to be sweet, today must be bitter.
The pain we suffer today means that as we progress into the long four years of progress awaiting us, it will only get better.
There will be discomfort in 2023 so that 2024 can be better than this year, and 2025 will be better than its predecessor, and so on till Mr President honourably hands over to a new man/woman after fixing Nigeria to the best of his ability.
I believe in Nigeria. 💚 🤍 💚 I believe I will succeed in my must difficult endeavour and make my fatherland proud. I believe Nigeria will be the pride of Africa. I believe Nigeria will reclaim its past glory and surpass it.
O God of Creation, direct President Tinubu's noble cause and guide him right 💙♥️
yinkus6750: Welcome home.ln the next few days, he will still be receiving dignatories I. A months time, attention diverts to BAT in the villa. I pray he has good health not to keep going to London again
Mostly people who didn't have much access to him in Abuja, but feel he can put in a word for them with Tinubu.
Finally, and very soon, he will be alone, but for hangers-on after a few bucks, his family and his true friends.
One of the problems of being President at such advanced age is the rapid decline that comes afterwards, limited ability to travel and show up at engagements due to age and health.
If he'd handed over at, say, 65, he'd still have a good 15 years of real relevance.
In Buhari's case, I'm not sure we'll be talking about him beyond next year.
tonywonder: Peter Obi took to his Facebook page on Monday afternoon to express his thoughts following the inauguration of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s 16th president.
Acekidc4: Someone that is Richer than Togo, Ghana and Cotonou Combined........... Wetin he wan use Nigeria Wealth do??............. except to use the Wealth better the Lives of the Common hard-working Nigerians.
yinkus6750: No need wasting time on unending judicial process that won't yield anything in your favour. Time to move ahead. Let BAT form a government of unity and carry everyone along for the betterment of the country. We MOVEEEEE
mushroomFarm: Hello guys! No much story. Life in Russia is going on smoothly. You can check my old post here on Nairaland about life in Russia. . Racism is at Zero level The love for black people is awesome! They invite us to participate in movies and advertisements all the time. This is the kind of white man's land where any foreigner can be loved. . . However, my post for today is about something different I went on excursion to a paramilitary camp in Yakutsk, Russia, (coldest city in the world) to make some video documentaries about some vintage Russian tanks they have there. (I am still editing those documentaries) . However, at the end of my shooting (the main video) I decided to do something crazy. Walk up to Russian military (A general and a field soldier). I asked the Russian General to say hello to Nigeria and he gladly did it even with a salute!
I asked the soldier boy to say hello to my favourite Nairalander ( falseprophet1 ). (His funny false prophecies always make my day! One of the reasons why Nairaland is still so much fun for me ) He understands English to some extent, so he bursted out laughing realizing that someone's name is 'falseprophet' . . I am hoping falseprophet1 will find this post. I added a few pictures of myself with some Russian girls I play table tennis with at my dormitory every night. Falseprophet1 please prophecy into my life abeg .
MrBrownJay1: who goes to deposit such huge amount of cash, in a bank, at closing hours....? just counting that huge amount of money would last at least an hour!
any man who walks around with $11M in cash (in such above yeye looking car with no police escort), deserves anything he gets from armed robbers because he is the biggest HE-diot in town!
I'm even wondering what sort of "businessman" the guy is......
What sorta business transaction gets a man stuck with $11,000,000 in CASH?!?!
Politics?
Drugs?
Kidnapping?
Not justifying the robbers o, but a man with such heavy cash, hard-earned, will seek alternative transfer methods.
SultanOfAbia: My mother is furious that I don't want to come over to the UK. This month my younger sister left for UK and it's remaining me. Documents and all papers are right and after couple family intervention I decided to go for interview. I really didn't want to go to Uk I love my life here in Nigeria tho things are hard.. it's still my home I feel more connected to my father's land. Going to abroad is not my plan. My mother thinks I'm possessed by spirit that want me to not succeed. My uncles have pleaded with me to go and join my mum and sis in UK.
I was given UK visa last year, refused to join my sister that traveled this May
honestly I don't want to move to Uk. I know how hard life can be in 9ja but i still love this country. Mumsi says she is really dissapoinmented in me for staying back. Did I do anything wrong?
No.
Not yet.
If it so develops that Nigeria "happens" to you one day (I hope not), you may feel you did.
casualobserver: Regarding your earlier post. There is no plane in the presidential fleet that can be used for commercial service. They are all private jets. Even the presidential 737 only seats about 20
As for ibom air’s other planes I don’t know the status, I doubt they can afford to own them outright. If they are then it is very stupid of Akwa ibom to purchase new planes outright.
A new plane can cost anywhere between $100m and $400m. Let’s say we are talking about a new 737 @ $100m or a used one @ 50m. In a country like Nigeria you have that sort of money and all you get is one plane, what about the other costs associated with setting up an airline, How long will you have to operate to break even?
On the other hand you can lease 5 737s at approx $1-1.5m a month. Does that not make more sense while you are still starting up. You have 5 planes, you can service more routes, your financial outlay is less and your commitment is less because you can lease a plane for a year and renew or have the flexibility to lease other types of planes if things don’t pan out as planned after a year. But if you have already spent $100m to BUY your plane and business is anot as good as you thought or you find the planes are not adequate for your route, you are stuck with the plane.
You're making a ton of sense.
It's cheaper and a quicker springboard to take off.
A little transparency would have been appreciated from our government, though.
