Tinubu be scheming fo mandate he will return .. Foolish schemer

This mandate of a thing me I no understand o…return the mandate to who?I tried to figure where Tinubu rigged cuz this man lost Lagos and Osun but still won…I think time to study last presidential election with open minds

Military0001:
Oyetola no get any other option, so the congratulation no really mean anything.

It meant a lot…GEJ congratulations message to Buhari turned him to a man the world today respect for that singular act.

ersonleads:
Debruyne vs modric coming up few minutes from now.

Dem don settled that one for sports section and Modric won

Papi85:
the team was decent but the least expected to even make it to the semis let alone winning the competition

Stop been sentimental and face fact. All these na still to justify that de bruyne is better than zizou 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Prior to the World Cup 1998 French player that is world class was only Cantona. Dechamp was average at best at juve, it took zizou almost 2 seasons to start doing well at juve while desailly was just ok at Milan

If u like write thesis but all I started above is nothing but the truth

I don tire o…the same French team failed to qualify for 1990 and 1994 WC but made 1998 WC as host.

TheGoodJoe:
Zidane was not even the best player for France in that world cup. Left to Zidane, they would have gone home.

Ronaldo De Lima even played better than him in that game.

Pls just tell me MVP in that match.

Flick490:
God is never a Man. The will of the people is the will of God and it is always final. Congratulations to the osun people. Power belongs to the people and it can only be given by God .

OBI PETER GREGORY is next

Supreme court is the best now.Don’t change mouth if the same Supreme rules in favor of Tinubu…..Kai so you can believe in corrupt judiciary.

TheGoodJoe:

Lol. Those goals were two headers from corner kicks. The flicks and control did not help him achieve that.

But those flicks and control led to corners abi

TheGoodJoe:
What do you mean?

French team were made of stars.

Was Lizarazu not a big star?

Deschamps had already won the champions league to the best of my knowledge.

Emmanuel Petit was already huge at Arsenal.

How could you make the French team then without being established.

You can say you did not know them but I knew them well.

Even the Monaco boys like Henry and Trezeguet were well established.

They did not need Zidane to excel. That was how good they were. They could drop the likes of Cantona and Ginola. Leave out Karembu and a host of big names from the starting line up and do well.

By the Euros, Zidane was playing with big names too.

Sir,the same France failed to qualify for 1990 and 1994 WC and came back as host in 1998.Nobody’ gave them the chance despite being host.French team without Zidane wouldn’t have won France 98 WC

TheGoodJoe:
More effective. It depends on what you want to use to rate better players. That Brazil vs France game is about flicks, dribbles, and artistic control.

De Bruyne, is about effective play and creating unbelievable chances for his team mates.

Finito.

Thar flicks,dribbles and artistic control saw Zidane scoring two goals in WC final.

How una expect him to greet 66 years old man

TheGoodJoe:
Zidane could miss playing two full games and get a red card in another match in a tournament and still win the world cup. The French team were stellar. Give de Bruyne the likes of Lizarazu, Thuram, Petit, Dugarry and others and see him remake history.

Remember France could drop the likes of Cantona, Ginola. Vieira, Henry, Trezeguet, Ba, Lama on the bench. That was how stellar the French team was.

My man go and watch France vs Brazil again and tell me De Bruyne is better than Zidane.

AndSunGorilla:
Egbon daadaa my inlaw, how is Kehinde doing sir? Is she still in 9ja or outside Nigeria too? And finally is she married yet? I dey find second wife o.

oloriooko:
"Halleluyah
Hossana
Ps 3v5
Peace"
was the inscription on Awoniyi's inner shirt yesterday as he bagged a brace against the saints
Is the guy bon again?

He came from a strong Christian family and married a born again wife named Jesuseun meaning Thank you Jesus….Taiwo is highly discipline with thorough home training.

Trevor012:
Stop typing nonsense. How many other leagues have produced more different winners than Epl clubs in the champions league over the last ten years? How many other leagues have produced more finalists than Epl over the last ten years as well( Liverpool, Tottenham, Manchester city and Chelsea). Epl produced two champions league finalists in 2018/2019 and 2020/2021. If not for Madrid carrying and saving La Liga in the champions league you will not be here typing nonsense.

EPL issue is like hating on iPhone but I keep on asking people but why always iphone….most players love coming to EPL but some would still tell me EPL is overrated…..**FACT about life when people talk about you in a mocking way then you are important.

Awoniyi had a brace yesterday,to some EPL is overhyped.Imagine telling me Haaland will find it hard to score 20 goals in Napoli team in Seria A that Ademola Lookman has 14 goals.Even Simmy Neamkwo had 20 goals in 2020-2021 season equaled Samuel Eto 2010-2011 record in Seria A.

I will not rate Osimehn cuz of his Napoli feat cuz he is born scorer that anytime any day in any top three leagues he would does it with ease.

TheGoodJoe:

I don't understand the point. Are you saying I did not watch Zidane?

I watched the very best of Zidane. Watched him for Juventus. Watched him for France.

How many here shouting Zidane even knew he was not key in the France 98 tourney?

The fact is that not here, including those in the sports section have not watched De Bruyne like me. I have watched about 99% of every match De Bruyne played for Manchester City.

He is insane.

When you people say you don't believe in stats, what you believe in? Graciousness, leg overs, and flicks of the ball.

The reason why you guys want to avoid stats, is because it clearly flaws your argument.

Oga yes you watched and you are still watching football.I hold you in high esteem here but anything related to Pep is the best to you.

De Bruyne is a player I like as a thorough Chelsea fan I was like what a hell with Mourinho not believing in De Bruyn.

My Oga stats or no stats De Bruyne would be happy seeing your comparisons with Zinedine Zidane.Hope to see him doing it for Belgium just like Zidane did for France then we can talk who is better.

Wawelexy:
Read read read.... Or maybe I should say read to understand and not to reply comments...


My second paragraph isn't about Tony anymore.... Dangote used this same tribal scheme I mentioned... Maybe you should go back to history...

Sir your third paragraph rubbishy what could have been the APT analysis from you….Elumelu align with BAT and Otedola can use his tribe to win BAT.My man things are not done that way.

SeunDAssLicker:
You’re still believing Elumelu begged him. Begged him, yet bought %25 in Transcorp in one day. Yet Femi only bought a meager %5.

I’m not sure where your emotional ranting is coming from. But that not how stocks work. There are millions more of ordinary shares to be bought in the open market that both parties can mop up, problem is who has more liquidity..?

Definitely not Femi who’s already sold half his position in First bank since he became major shareholder.

Lastly, you cannot disrupt Nigeria stocks because it is capped by the SEC, once you become a major shareholder, you’re bound to disclose your holdings.

Which is what prompted Tony to put a final lid on Transcorp from holding %6 to %31 in one day. Man bought 5X what Femi wanted to “disrupt” Transcorp with according to you.🫢🤦🏾‍♂️

Man still has enough to take Firstbank from Femi if he wants to with N20B only.

Go check how much Heirs Holding is worth and how much liquidity Tony has via UBA. Otedola on the other hand is only a major shareholder in Firstbank, he doesn’t sit on the board of directors yet.

Sir when big men like Dangote,Adenuga,Otedola and Elumelu are at war,presidency wade in cuz they are mover of economy….what is going on behind the scene is not known to laymen like us…Fact can Elumelu fight dirty with Otedola?NO so in few days things would be settled

lhordspy:
You are the ignorant one sir. Maybe you should always read the main thread before replying comments. If you go through the statement released by Otedola, you will know he is still pained by the betrayal of Elumelu.

He has no interest in usurping Elemulu at transcorp. It is just about unsettling the market; teaching Elumelu a little bit of lesson by checkmating him.

If the whole scenario is just as you ignorantly painted up there. Why then was Elumuluu settled? Why did he involved mutual friends to beg Otedola to let go. The move by Otedola was already unsettling the market, Elumelu was boxed, he had no option than to beg !

Exactly what otedola was hoping to achieve. It was more of a 'lesson' than 'business' .

APT….don’t mind some here na to Dey bring tribalism into discourse that everybody should learn from.It’s simple Elumelu is smart but Otedola is a business warrior who fight dirtying.I remembered how he finished Kano born House of rep member Farouk.

package7:
Igbos are traitors from the beginning of Creator. Nonsense and Ingredients people.

Tribal coloration again,this is big men issue and soon to see them again smiling together

Wawelexy:
You stabbed yourself the moment you were unable to keep your mouth shut, in business, there's nothing like a brother or family, someone of your calibre should understand this better...

Well it isn't over yet, the best revenge you could get is to also outbid him in any business or shares he tops, not easy tho, alot of consultations, lobbying (most especially, relevant government personnel or agency), bribery (maybe), researchs, calculations, and huge investment will be done, cos you both will be playing powerful business chess ♟️ game, and the smartest wins all here...

Power tussles; Mr Elemelu is already ahead of you by mingling with the President - Select, you can still use the tribal card on him here, just like you know, the northerners will never leave their own person, but don't know if same can be said about the South West... To me, if Ote money knows how to play his game well and neat, I think it's high time to take advantage of ethnic sentiments via T\nubu to overtake the longest record holder of the richest person in Africa.... Dangoπe also used this same opportunity during the regime of B@baginda, Ab@cha, and Buh@ri... Even Ob@sanjo, cos Baba also danced to the tune of the northerners cos they were the decider of his election....

Now that Buh@ri had unknowingly put a slight friction in between the two tribes by trying to outsmart T\nubu in the just concluded elections, Yoruba, it's high time to overtake...

Go Ote$, your greatest challenge is Dangoπe refinery, but you can still win...

Trash cuz you brought up tribal into your comment.Oh Elumelu is ahead of Otedola?did you really know what happened in transcorp deal?NO,cuz if you knew then you will know that Elumelu is a learner….My man you don’t have any advice to give both Otedola and Elumelu and soon they will settle their differences just like Dangote and Otedola made up…..Sir everything is not about tribalism.

BronzeTiger:
Manchester city is likely to win it's fifth league title in six years. They've failed to win the champions league once since the etihad takeover. If you are talking of most competitive we can talk of the serie a that has produced four different winners in four years. Osimhen also scored twice against leceister city two years ago. They were even comeback goals and leceister had a better defence than now.

I think you need to go by champions league performance from semi final to rate each league in the last ten years and I want to say EPL still number one and very competitive though Man city remains a team to beat…oh Seria A was damn too poor for some years back but this year we saw three Italian teams in quarter finals and now two in semi final which showed improvement…..mind you Napoli already crowned league champion but Man city still has Arsenal trailing closely and check out fierce battles in EPL last seven teams trying to survive relegation.

TheGoodJoe:
Statistically, when it comes to effectiveness, De Bruyne is a better player than Zidane.

I saw a post in nairaland sports section comparing Modric and De Bruyne and the comments there told me people watched football….Oga just put in sports section and see may be you are indeed right….am a fan who don’t believe in stats,going by stats then player like Iwobi would be compared to Okocha and Mikel in GWG.

Marjoribanks:
Imagine what Oshimen will do in this overhyped league. Lol!

Oga Majori,haba my son scored a brace today now the EPL is overhyped but in the same Seria A Simmy Nwankwo scored 20 goals and this season Lookman scored 14 goals….just say Osimehn is a class that can thrive in any top five leagues and say well done Awoniyi for the brace.

Lovelive:
May the NATURE favour our dear country Nigeria with this awaiting judgment.




God Almighty, free "the poor masses" from the bondage of these gang of corrupt politicians/leaders



We need New Nigeria and better society o Lord God

God Almighty,free”the poor masses” from who? Tinubu and Favour us with Atiku or Obi….just tell me who is not corrupt amongst the trios…Tinubu Alpha beta deals,Atiku Jefferson deals and Obi Pandora deals.

Oh Diego Armando Maradona is not alive…it would have been a perfect celebration for Victor Osimehn cuz the Maradona would be live there celebrating Osimehn.

Icon4s:
Nigeria was the better side..they were just unfortunate to concede that early goal. Morocco went defensive for 92mins of the game.

I am personally pleased with the ball playing abilities of the lad. They only lack the cutting edge upfront.

Better to have true age team and not winning than having 20 years old plus team.What I want to see in this team is the futures.

Good one from Awoniyi…..but I hope government maintains it

[quote author=Hamachi post=122872009][/quote]Oga more evidences or we termed it nollywood film and mind you no be today Gateman Dey give Oga wife belle,so nothing new…it plenty for GRA areas and everybody move with no rancor.

Honestly I pity Ekweremadu and his family.He just need God grace to survive this and I hope he makes it.I pity his wife and daughter cuz is not easy

You mean that all of them came? Also all that came late are from one tribe? Let's be logical in our statement.

Logical on baseless allegations.Ilorin boy from Kwara State told his parents he missed the bus….Oga all these nonsense na agenda and some people are behind it.

KingsCity:
I see no possible justification for lifting people based on their state of origin



All these evil people are going to get their reward in due course

Some of you to read and understand is an issue.Did you not read that some nationals are forcing themselves into the buses.This led to introduction of states of Origin.The states of origin makes it easy to identify Nigerians through local languages and mind you some are in Sudan illegally with no Nigeria passports.
