TheLoneCitizen:
False.

I really don't think so.

Add to that the penchant for Italians to seek underhanded football transfer deals. Napoli is still under investigation regarding the V.O. transfer from Lille to the club.

drDoom3:
Wrong. All are better when you consider the context.

Ejuke made a bad move to CSKA, this move rescued him and brought him back to where he can be watched.

Awo made a crucial move to the EPL. If he does well, he could be making a bigger move soon. Also, this move literally forces him into the SE unless he just fails miserably. No excuse to leave him out if he does well.

Lookman was frozen out at Leipzig, same at Leicester. He needed a move, Serie A is hard enough to be competitive but not hard enough not to do well. This move might finally allow him prove himself.

Boniface is really an unknown quantity at the moment. USG is a Brighton pipeline too, so it is definitely a good move.

Ademola situation leaves me perplexed, clearly one of the outstanding players in an under performing Leicester city last season.

6 goals from 26 games as a winger is commendable particularly in the EPL. Why would Leicester not try to retain him.

Furthermore, Liepzig decides to deny him opportunity it seems there is more to this than has been said.

In the UK, Boris was force to resign because he broke his own covid-19 rules.

If this man is a senator in a sane country, he would have been forced to resign, and prosecuted for assaulting a lady. Just imagine is in Europe he committed the crime.

All the members of the national assembly on account of a legislative abuse would not be in office. The highest paid national legislators in the world are in Nigeria.

We placed a man with a degree in Sharia law illegally to be made the CJN.

PMB would have been disqualified for fraud ( no certificate) and all the state governor, commissioner and ministers would all be in prison for corruption.

Indeed Burutai would have been dismissed from the army for abuse of office, treason and corruption.

Indeed if this was a sane country we would not be discussing providing electricity,water and good roads asva major election vision.

Think about it .

GabrielYulaw:
Kuje prison had just been attacked. And they were told the Law school might be next. And they carried Hilux to there when they could have used something more substantial. That I no understand at all o.

Like if you are going out and hear thunder and lightning, you dash back inside and pick up an umbrella. You don't go out as you were, trusting in the almighty to keep you safe and dry and delay the rain till you reach your destination.

Similarly, if you were told that a rabid dog was around, you suit up and prepare yourself. You don't shrug your shoulders and do as you have always done.

Why would the presidential guard of all people go out in Hilux like common soldiers or police on bullion van escort duty and fall into an ambush like common soldiers? They underestimated the enemy and showed lack of initiative and flexibility. That's shameful.

The attack of the presidential guards sends a message and that message is that these terrorists fear nothing and can do anything to anyone at anytime. There are tens of thousands of the terrorists and if they all rush Abuja now we all know wetin go happen. If you can't see the bad situation we are in then I am sorry.

It says something very strongly about the inherent capacity of the army to do the job.

IMO they have a operational culture that's essentially based on old ethos, it's as if they are using DOS when we are using Windows 11.

Three key missing components in thier battlefield management; Zero spatial awareness , poor communication infrastructure and no contingency responsive plan.

The settings is quasi Urban, you are going into volatile territory ( no situational awareness) really you should have eyes and ears on the ground, a few basic drones, intelligence zero.

Getting ambushed is not the problem it is your contingency plan to deal with it.

We have had French soldiers for a decade in the Sahara. What have been their casualties and why are the deranged jihadists not keen to engage them ambush or otherwise.

Because the day they do none of them will return home. They will not just REPEL , but seek out , overtake and annihilate.

I admit to being Western biased, but I have never seen European and or American combatants brutalising sometimes killing innocent civilian for their daily entertainment . And when carrying out operations carry out a scorched earth policy on civilian settlements.

I have been in bases across Europe and the UK etc but never seen that happen. What's wrong with our combatants.❓

That behaviour is very far from professional and if it is WHY, therefore do you in expect the army to have the efficacy of a modern disciplined professional fighting force.

Therein lies the problem.

Consider this Hundred plus passengers kidnapped in broad daylight on the Kaduna - Abuja Train and then walked to captivity ,they are still probably within a 200km radius of Kaduna. But we still don't know where they are to date

How long did it take the USA to find there singular citizen Philip Walton kidnapped by bandits and brought into Zamfara. It was was probably within 72 hours and the kidnappers wasted.

So we have a problem and it starts from the top where ineptitude and incompetence are the defining words exemplified in PMB

This thread has gone west.

Not too long ago l said on this thread that soon these bandits ( now terrorists) and thier associates in Boko and ISWAP will venture into the seat of government in Abuja.

Well that day has come, the presidential guard has been ambushed in Abuja.

We can now say without contradiction PMB is the most inept, incompetent, clueless, and useless government in the history of the Nigerian nation.

He should just resign now .

Subzero047:
Nawa o, because of a training ground bust up do you know how many times each club experiences these things in a day?

It happens quite often .

However, it seems to happen a bit too .much with VO.

charlesemeka85:
what happened

There are clear anger issues with VO and he needs to find a way to control his rage. He was even being beligerant to his manager.

Admittedly this relentless rage and consuming aggression is a core attribute that gives him over riding advantage. But it is a two edged sword, this street mentality is not becoming of a top professional.

These are not behaviours that will endear him to the top clubs. Add to that the murky darkness of his transfer allegedly over inflated. Legal tussles with agents and now his in-laws.

He needs to change this behaviour come down of his high horse and stop being so conceited. Pride comes before a fall.

fabyom:
Arsenal will challenge City for the premier league this season.

While Liverpool and Chelsea will go on study leave.

The EPL 2021/22 was decided on one point between Man city and Liverpool.

The EPL is too competitive and the best league in the world, it's too close to call .

Myhusband:
with the high insecurity in Nigeria, only God knows how Buhari's teacher in school and military school were able to cope with his dumbness



this man is an ex military general o and yet untrained ragtag guys are making his govt ungovernable yet he's not seeing danger in the future perhaps it was his plan to handover govt to them because his nonchalant attitude in stopping these guys confidence is suspicious

Illiterate ex general

Below is a YouTube video in which Victor Osimhen older sister same Mother and Father plus her husband who was Victor manager who had a legal binding shared agency fee contract with his agent.

Its all not very good and can't be dismissed as just relatives cashing in.

And to think they once use SE do shakara. The other even said his name is IB and not ibe.

His Igbo father has had zero impact in his life , his Jamaican step Father filled that gap since he was a child.

He had serious depression issues and is essentially mentally unwell to play football. This is not a laughing matter.

charlesemeka85:
Carney chukwuemeka turns down new contract offer from Aston villa with Liverpool interested in signing him for free

Watched him I think last year playing for the U18 in a final against Liverpool. He was outstanding, felt Liverpool should have got him then.

Dude is real quality, he is wanted across Europe and not just speculatively.

The best vehicle by far is the Audi Q7. l have had friends who have used the car for 3 years without any problems.

Maintenance is a question of perspective and understanding. Do you have a good technician ( not kazim) do you source OEM parts online ( best value) do you have a good maintenance culture and have a good automotive understanding. Then no problem.

Buy and own the very common Lexus RX and expect to have it stolen, even with you inside it and be kidnapped possibly even killed in the desperate quest to steal the RX from you.

The RX will be among the top 5 most commonly stolen cars in Nigeria. Parts and maintenance, the market is awash with substandard knock off parts from India, Taiwan, China even Aba. As a consequence you will change those cheap poor quality parts regularly.

As opposed the Q7 where break pads may last you two years or more.

Off road the Q7 leaves the RX behind in the dark on the road in terms of handling the RX is left also behind.

However, you may wish to follow the large multitude, remember intelligence and wisdom don't rest with majority but the minority.

Finally, in the Q7 rest and sleep in relative security without fear of armed robbers be unique.

Nuff said

Sincerely speaking, if a neutral person with good track record could comes from an unknown political party for Delta state Governorship position, it would have been the best option for Deltans.
All these career politicians are very heavy burden on the State and they have failed the state. All the politicians in Delta state are supposed to go on compulsory retirement. The state has been badly raped and emptied by the wicked selfish politicians.

Where is the Labour candidate for Delta ❓

Ttalk:
If Christian/Christian combo from SE has not divided the SE, Tinubu's Muslim/muslim ticket will not divide the country l

No it won't because he is now an inconsequential noise maker surrounded by sycophants getting fat on his I'll gotten wealth .

Nobody is going to be DISOBEDIENT and vote for him.

Tinubu will only get the votes of the regressive tribalists and those he pays to vote for him.

He is essentially dead on arrival come 2023.

tutudesz:
BM21 in action

Far from precision weaponry with a highly fluid enemy , it's essentially noise making.

TheGoodJoe:
Ah ah.

This matter is not over? They should have sorted it out of court now.

The deal is now subject to criminal investigation by the Italian police as you already know. The offices of Napoli have been raided.

When it comes to Italians you know that this is the land of the Mafia.

charlesemeka85:
Brentford and Qpr interested in tosin kehinde

Find that hard to believe Particularly with Michael as Manager of QPR .

A players who is any good doesn't leave Manchester United and is by passed by the EPL, Championship, League one and then goes to obscurity in the Portuguese second division then ends up in the Danish league.

obiriminispor loading…..

Mugu wey go accept offer we Dey em table then work hard inorder to get a raise or better contract from a bigger team

If em no join obiriminispor in Turkish 2nd tier mk I knw wetin cause am

He was on €3k a week in Huesca, and had his contract ripped up after having a anonymous season. If it's true he shook have jumped up and signed.

At this time there will be so much newspaper talk and until things are signed and sealed sometimes it's just noise making.

ChrisKels:
France U19 starting squad.

I think France should stop pretending, they need to swallow their pride and file for a place in the AFCON

Unfortunately this can NEVER happen in England.

charlesemeka85:
I swear bro, he shouldn’t be looking at money now but a perfect and conducive club for him to revive is dwindling career and I think fc Zurich is perfect for him. Moreover the payment package offered to him is not bad for a start

Thats a step backwards not forward.

Subzero047:
Crystal Palace, Fulham and an unknown bundesliga club interested in Aribo, I would advise him to take a look at moving to Germany the intensity there will favour him

What intensity ❓

charlesemeka85:
Super Eagles forward, Chidera Ejuke is set for a move to Hertha Berlin on loan, according to Bild.

Ejuke scored five goals and five assists last season and helped CSKA finish in a respectable position on the log.



With former Dinamo Moscow coach, Sandro Schwarz joining Hertha Berlin, he considered the Super Eagles winger as one of his transfer targets.

Per Bild, Ejuke has given Schwarz his word and will play the next year at the capital club on a contract that has no provision for a permanent move.

Ejuke is one of the most exciting wingers in European football and has a reputation for his runs and dribbles.

His career has however not taken the lights yet as a move to Russia hasn’t panned out exactly as he would desire.

The former Heerenveen star will however have a chance to star in a major European league next season in the Bundesliga.

Dude don't you think you are over gassing with the bold ❓

"The Metropolitan Police further added that “A child has been safeguarded and we are working closely with partners on continued support. As criminal proceedings are now under way we will not be providing further details”."

THE ABOVE FURTHER GIVES CREDENCE TO MY ASSERTION FOR A LARGER CONSPIRACY THAT INVOLVES THE "INNOCENT" YOUNG BOY AS A CULPRIT.

https://www.nairaland.com/7193631/parenthood-tears-desperation-agony-ekweremadus

The link was rendered the moment I watched and listened to the report of the incident on TVC news. It dawned on me that this was a contrived concerted effort for a stay in the UK and the unknown ULTERIOR motive of a deceitful victim of circumstance.

WOULD IT BE RIGHT TO AVER THAT THE BRITISH SYSTEM CANNOT PROVE IDENTIFY AND DIFFERENTIATE AN ADULT FROM A MINOR OR UNDERAGED.

What makes a 21years old adult, a child to be confined secured and or safeguarded?

THE ENTIRE EPISODE SPARKS CURIOUSITY VICTIMIZATION OF THE Ekweremadus AND CONSPIRACY. THEREBY, A PROPER INVESTIGATION TO UNRAVEL AN UNTOWARD MYSTERY.

A big yes

Because there is no scientific methodology to determine the exact age of a person even with an MRI scanner.

The young man has simply renegade on the agreement. And is telling a contrived story of lies and deceit to move away from being participant to a VICTIM.

He will be able to claim asylum on the grounds of the fear of being killed and persecuted. Very quickly British passport will come.

Our nation is in a desperate state and people are desperate to JAKPA.

Tellwhat:
Well he's right he's Igbo

Afterall the so called Igbo coup.that led to Biafran civil war was spearheaded by nzeogwu who's also an Igbo man from present day delta state

Only issue I have is when people choose to be Igbos to flow with the narrative.

Especially when some ikwerre play that card

But the situation is unfortunate and it's hard to blame anyone; the civil war and many issues divided Igbos a lot and made some igbo dialect to claim another identity while also being igboid

If an ikwerre man can claim not to be Igbo then many Igbo dialects like nsukka or ngwa or even mbaise etc or any dialect can as well claim not to be Igbo despite being Igbo.

Unfortunate circumstances created such scenerio

Asaba and Agbor have two entirely different heritages and origins.

Okowa is not Igbo but for the purposes of politics like he has decided to give himself a completely new and different Identity.

loba18:
Breakpad tokunbo is what you called pound foolish?? Breakdisc?? Even a tokunbo radiator is what you called pound foolish?? For a 2010 car!! You're not serious right??

I want to assume a minimal level of education and therefore understanding.

Why would anybody buy used break pads and discs❓There are some thing you can buy used and even refurbished. But absolutely not Break pads and discs.

Considering how vital your breaks are to keeping you alive in your vehicle. It's close to sucidal and to be honest it's down right stupidity.

Getting a used Radiator not a guaranteed refurbished one is fraught with problem. We are in a tropical country and the issues of overheating are very common.

And putting in to your car a questionable used radiator and if that vehicle is a high performance Range Rover V8. That's really not wisdom and could be out of the frying pan into the FIRE literally.

If you can afford to buy a 2010 RR should you even consider buying a used radiator.

Penny wise pound foolishness to the highest degree.

Happy Sunday.

Bravetunde:
Atiku has made the right decision.
A ss Igbo is a goal for him.
Apart from obi other ss and se people will vote pdp.
Atiku is also quite detribalised.
Theivenubu is the worst presidential candidate ever in Nigeria.

Theivenubu aka agbado and cassava

Okowa is not Igbo get your facts right.

lawnreigh:
PDP obviously doesn't rate the South East, after delivering Bloc Vote for PDP since 1999, yet they didn't deem it fit to pick a South Easterner as VP Candidate. Okowa is Igbo but then, PDP still no rate South East. Chaiii

Okowa is not Igbo.

His tribe the Ika have Igbo origins but are not 100% they are a mixture of Benin and Igbo origins. You could say they are first or second cousins to the Igbo.

But outright IGBO a big capital NO.

Okowa was chosen to meet the egotistical needs of Atiku who needs to a "YES " man , " house boy " who will say yes to every order and demand without question.

Okowa has zero political clout beyond his immediate locality of Agbor. And he will get no votes in the South East.

It was obvious that Atiku would never have selected the Gidigba " no fear" uncontrollable Wike.

This all music to the ears of the next incoming President Peter Obi. Because the whole South South is 99.9% behind Peter Obi.

charlesemeka85:
who re the Nigerian centre backs in the championship?

There are quite a few but nobody bothers to find out.

But we can use high powered torch light to highlight players who are playing in the most obscure leagues in Europe and consider them as prospects.

Thats the issue.
