Hello Saint!!

forgiveness:
Yeah! By the grace of God, I am a true Christian and a Saint.

I will be most glad if the entrace of discussing scriptures with you is opened.


However, I will not focus on the good or bad but the will of God in everything. Shalom.

You can tell by just watching a NPFL match on TV.. it's a no brainer. If you have one camera, there are little you can do in terms of different angles and views.

daveP:
I just discovered that our NPFL have only 1 camera for covering a match compared to EPL's 47 for covering, and 16 for other thing. Or more closely, the South African league that uses 34cameras for match coverage from good angles and replays. pls how true is this?

madam.. he is young. he will learn by experience. Even wise king Solomon admitted that Proverb 31 wife is rare. I suppose the kind of husband she had was also rare.

Even people who say don't focus on looks but what is in a woman's brain, have they ever wondered what real intelligence is? Anyway we no dey church. The same book of proverbs says a woman's charm can be deceptive. Charm can be anything a man looks at in a woman that distracts him from what he should really be focusing on or studying in her.

safarigirl:
of course. But some things are too obvious not to know the motive. Just like there is a lot more to love and like in a man aside his wallet, but if you saw a young and pretty woman with an old, ugly man, would you think she liked him for his personality?



When Mikel started dating Olga, I never said a word of it, I understood their relationship to some extent, but this one, with this boy wey him eye too dey chook, I can never regard it. Just another gold digging oyibo with some low self esteem black man that is seeking recognition from the 'superior' race.

With all the botox aunty has, she probably has years of experience with dating mugus like Iwobi. Most likely older than him sef, so e go easy to lock him brain inside box

I want to believe you are a fine Christian sir.. I don't know you personally.. but let's all try to look for the good and focus on the good in others. I will more than likely want to have scriptural discussions with you than football matters.

forgiveness:
Will it be reflected when I give my other cheek to smitten after the right cheek has been smashed?

Or are you talking about the Christian lifestyle that will be reflective when I pluck out my eyes or cut off my hands if they are offending me?

How are you able to read my comment with your eyes and type with your hands if you are in accordance with Christian lifestyle though by Jesus? Abi ya eyes never offend you by luku luku....?

Take d lead, What are waiting for?

Hahahahahaha! Have you ever read, 'The Lord doesn't not see as man seeth... For the man lookth at the outward appearance but the Lord sees the heart..'?

That is the Christianity God wants.

wives? mosquito?.. haha.. oga i'm lost oh
It is by God's power not by my might that I have been faithful

Taliban:
Joe Joe, you get wives for house and you still wan be big mosquito? Like Timaya said, dem no dey tell pesin

smh

OMANBALA1:
Plenty is a misleading word ,some is more like it. And black man thirst for white women is a shame on the black race. Dont you people have women you can find attractive enough to marry within your race ? The most annoying part of it is when I see a black man with a fat white woman no white man will touch with a long poll...White boy laugh their bbutts off looking at these black men. You pick up their trash and treat her like a gaddem queen...

And the notion that white women like black men because of their long kini is so degrading. Why not like black men because of their intelligence ? Oh, I forgot most black men has no cerebral cortex thats why their countries are trash. I have hanged with both white and black guys and most times all the black guys talk about is women with big butt except the aged ones, while white boys talk about real issues in the society

Back to football. I love the NPFL-La Liga pact. Hopefully we would have more Nigerians move to Spain in future.

I like this! Many professed Christians don’t even know this.

Humility017:
the way you quote the scripture leaves me baffled...

but still you don't show your knowledge of it...in your write ups here...it doesn't reflect in your insults,accusations and advocacy.
Christianity should be a lifestyle..and not a practise.

Wetin Aigbogun dey wait for?

Lucque:
Dat Deji beyreuther kid rili loves all things Naija... He follows all our players ND seems to have us in mind... One for d definite future

Na big lie. I’ve always loved skinnier. Even my wife is. I don’t like weight issues at all. For women to pick up their self to go gym na big discipline o. Wetin person dey use all that water water do? Lol

safarigirl:
ehn, black men only love skinny women when they come in white or Latino packages.

When it's black, they want thick and curvy. That's self esteem issues.

Adepoju: Expect Very Strong Atletico Madrid Team Against Nigeria

May 16, 2018 10:15 am

Former Super Eagles star Mutiu Adepoju is the Spanish La Liga Ambassador in Nigeria. In this interview with Completeportnigeria.com’s KAYODE OGUNDARE, the ex-Real Sociedad of Spain midfielder talks about the forthcoming GOTV MAX Cup international friendly between the Super Eagles and La Liga giants Atletico Madrid on May 22 in Uyo as well as the partnership agreement between Nigeria’s League Management Company (LMC) and their Spanish counterparts…

How did the deal for Nigeria to play Atletico Madrid come to be?

Got something to say? The let your voice be heard! Back Pass *Sport related topics only*
It is the result of a partnership agreement signed between the League Management Company and La Liga few years ago. By bringing a powerhouse like Atletico Madrid, La Liga has demonstrated the pride of place that Nigerian football occupies in its scheme of activities. We are doing everything for the Nigerian fans and to get everybody familiar with the best league in the world. This friendly match is just one of many more to come.


How long is this deal between the LMC and La Liga supposed to last for?

It was an initial five-year deal but La Liga is not planning to leave Nigeria in a hurry. The relationship is bearing fruits already and we planned to stay for a long time. We have an office here, employ Nigerians and discharge our duties as good corporate citizens. So I think it is a long-term project and both parties are satisfied.

In what other ways will Nigeria football benefit from this partnership?

The La Liga deal is a total package which includes providing visibility for Nigerian football and helping in youth development and access to global best practices in sports administration. It also includes capacity building for administrators so that the league can grow and catch up with the rest of the world in the shortest possible time. Kudos to Multichoice and GOTV for also partnering us to make this Atletico game possible.

Is La Liga also benefitting in this partnership or is it a one-sided affair?

No, definitely not. We are not looking at this in terms of naira and kobo but definitely there are benefits to be derived from both sides. La Liga will also benefit commercially and by providing access for Nigerian players to play in the Spanish La Liga which in turn will help to strengthen the league. So it is a win-win for everybody.

Talking about players, when can we expect to see the first direct transfer from the Nigerian League to La Liga?

It’s a gradual process which has begun already. We are strengthening systems and processes so that the quality of players produced from the Nigerian league can be better. La Liga is gradually having a better knowledge of Nigerian football too. Don’t forget that in 2016 an NPFL Selected side went to Spain and played quality friendlies including against this same Atletico and they narrowly lost to a late goal. This shows that the gap is closing and very soon it will not only be possible, it will also be easy for players to directly transfer from the NPFL to La Liga. Already we saw some Nigerian players move to La Liga from other European teams last season so it should not be far off to have some going from home too.

Can we expect to see a full strength Atletico Madrid side or is it the reserve team that will play against Nigeria?

Of course it will be the first team of Atletico that will come. Like you know they are playing the Europa League final against Marseille on Wednesday and they will get ready for the trip to Nigeria immediately after. Apart from anybody who may be injured or those who are World Cup bound with their countries, you can expect to see the full team with the technical staff led by Diego Simeone. I know FIFA sets aside a number of days for players to rest between end of the season and when they start World Cup preparations so some players may fall in that category and not be included but Nigerians can be sure that the team will be full strength.

hmmm..

I'm smiling here sitting in the "house of kings".. reminiscing on all my kinsmen that were Nigeria's first in everything.. How fulfilled I must be.

mmm.. what am I drinking today? Let's go local..

Where that my pami?

@ bolded hahaha.
they would soon call that an accusation without proof

Humility017:
my question is...
has rohr picked simmy for his final 23 list?
did simmy flopped @ the world cup upon making that list....?

simmy is not in same category with ogbeche so stop trying to mess things up....

dude haven't made the 23 man list yet... you've start compare him with a player who flopped in time past comparing both scenarios....

I really suspect your paramount reason for being here is not to support the super eagles....

That's not part of our world cup program. That match is to be prosecuted by selected players who are not part of our WC plans at the moment.

AIG07:
thanks.

But what about the friendly with Athletico?

SUPER EAGLES WORLD CUP TIMETABLE

It is their hope that they continue to have a say in football matters. Wherever money is their throat dey long. Now ask yourself does the money belong to government? We no ask them to speak for us as regards our WC expectations.

forgiveness:
NFF is autonomous hence government should shut up because they don't need the government. Was that not your argument?

As it stands NFF must respect the government because they fianance them and are part of the government parastatals.

So, can NFF shut up the government they are still receiving half of their budget from?

If they suceeded fine. No problem.

Even their success to achieve success to achieve 100% still depends on the government. Hahahaha! Na dere you go fear.

You should focus on that and stop deviating from koko of discussion.

4. The vision of the NFF

During the interview on Channels TV, Pinnick stated that the vision of his NFF is to make football the integral part of the Nigerian economy.

“In 1992, when the Premier League started, they requested $200m from the British government, not to give to the clubs but to develop their infrastructure,” Pinnick said.

“Today the British Government rake in between $2.5b to $3bn pounds on taxes and other direct activities relating to football annually.

“It adds to their GDP and that’s exactly what I wanted to do. Our programs include the QIP, the quick impact programmes which of course means we want to qualify Nigeria for all major tournaments because sporting successes also impact on your cooperate existences.”

5. Football houses all over the country
Pinnick revealed that the NFF ready to commission six football houses (secretariats for state FAs) in the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria.

The NFF have also commenced the building of more 12 of these houses across Nigeria.

“This is important because the problem we have is for example if you go to your state, you discover a player, you don’t nurture that player to greatness,” Pinnick said.

“There is what is called the FIFA connect program. Whereby every football stakeholders are already registered under the FIFA Connect programme.

“If you are discovered as a six-year-old, you get connected to a FIFA connect program and at that level, the state starts nurturing you.

“You cannot change the age of the player, you cannot change the name of the players because the player is being monitored by FIFA through NFF and through the state FA till he becomes a star."

6. NFF not paying a dime for Super Eagles Team B Vs Atletico Madrid

Pinnick says NFF is not paying for the friendly game between Super Eagles Team B and Atletico Madrid (CAF)

8. NFF get half of their budget from corporate sponsorship

Pinnick also revealed that the NF get half of their annual budget from corporate sponsorship.

“Our budget in a year is about between N5.5b to N6b and as I speak to you the NFF is about doing about N3.5b from corporate sponsorship,” Pinnick said.

“Within the next one and a half year, our target is to be 100% self-funding.”

9. Pressure from players

While denying reports that Super Eagles boss Gernot Rohr has been pressuring players to sign with an agent so they can make the World Cup squad, Pinnick revealed that he has been pressured by some agents to make sure their clients are in the list.

“I told them that I am the wrong person to meet. It is the call of the coach,” Pinnick said.

10: Ignoring court case distraction

Pinnick refused to respond to questions about the court cases he is facing and said their only focus is on the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

“We want to focus just one the World Cup because we believe that for the first time, Nigeria can focus on the World Cup,” he said.

Federal Government Warns Super Eagles: Qualifying For Second Round No Longer Acceptable

Federal Government Warns Super Eagles: Qualifying For Second Round No Longer Acceptable
The Federal Government has warned the Super Eagles of Nigeria that just qualifying from group D of the 2018 FIFA World Cup is no longer acceptable while insisting the team should aim to win the World Cup.

Special Adviser to the President Muhammadu Buhari , Femi Adesina, also charged other African teams not to have low ambitions, adding that funding will not be an issue for the Super Eagles team.

''Nigeria should do well, do very well at the World Cup. You know our target used to be qualifying for the second round, then at a time the target of Africa was getting to the quarterfinal,'' Femi Adesina said.

''I think we should be more ambitious this time, let's go as far as we can get and if we can win, why not, but let us not have low ambition.

''Funds should not be a problem as long as everything is put in place timeously, those who should make the request should make it in good time. If everything is done when it should be done, there should be no problem.''

Nigeria’s best outing at the mundial was finishing at the round of 16 three times in five appearances.

Coach Rohr has released a 30-man provisional squad for the World Cup, as the Super Eagles prepare to play Croatia, Iceland and Argentina in the group stage when the competition starts in June.
