What did you hear o? Micheal Edwards.


And which cave were you hiding that you didn't "hear" that Awoniyi already got his work permit since last year?

You may find it hard to believe but l have spoken to Awoniyi in the past.

He wasn't eligible then, what makes him eligible now. He has never played competitive football in England

Unless he has somehow acquired UK citizenship he will not qualify for a work permit.

In the past EU citizenship status would suffice but UK has left the EU.

So please explain and educate me.

codemaniacs:
There are more Nigerians in Nigeria than Nigerians outside Nigeria so it's about protecting the interests and opportunities of Nigerians born in Nigeria.

So why don't you make it ILLEGAL and PROHIBIT players who were born in Nigeria to go abroad to play football.

That way all opportunities to play football in. Nigeria will be reserved and secured for them and they will DEFINITELY DEVELOP into world class players playing ONLY IN NIGERIA.

Danielnino00:
Oga, they had an option to buy not obligation to buy...They could have decided not to sign him after his loan expired if he didn't impress them enough... In the same way, the clubs Awoniyi played for could have tabled a bid for him the end of his loan of he impressed enough...It's pretty straight forward...

Agreed

codemaniacs:
Foreign born players and foreign based players are 2 different things entirely.

I:henacho is a foreign based player while Okoye is a foreign born player.

I:henacho is not from the local league[b].. it's about protecting players like nacho[/b].

Protecting them from WHAT, if l may ask

maidaboi:
West Ham should pick this boy up please

What has Awoniyi done on loan that has been outstanding.

There is a reason he is not attracting much attention. Why would West Ham by a player who has been unable to show outstanding quality.

Danielnino00:
�Liverpool already fielded numerous enquiries about Taiwo Awoniyi. Fulham, WBA and Stoke are among a host of English clubs to have expressed interest, while he retains plenty of admirers in Germany. Liverpool believe Awoniyi is worth at least £7m. [@neiljonesgoal]

I

That's not what l have heard.


Finally not sure he will qualify for work permit.

BascoVanVeli:
Awoniyi is definitely not just a bullish striker. He had one muscle injury last season, before that it was a head injury and that made him miss the last preseason. He has always been mobile and creative for a striker.

Without a doubt I believe he can play as a striker for Klopp but the one single question is can he score consistently.

Without a doubt Awoniyi is not good enough to play for Liverpool FC

bidexiii:
NA regiments with clean AKs equipped with scopes

There are multiple AK47'S derivatives from different countries. Not sure where these are from probably Polish look like the Beryl M762.

However, rail is very limited so you can't get too many accessories on it.

Disappointed with the old style stock with its limited surface area, meaning recoil will not be reduced. The scope is basic but functional.

The key issue to improving an AK is to reduce the recoil and increase accuracy.

I have a preference for 5.56 on a number of different assault rifles which means far less recoil, much better recoil and further effective range. Which for me would be a H&K or if we talking of budget and best value then the CZ BREN.

Those guys seem to be doing a lot of guard duty and not so much combat. Guess that's why the AKs are so clean .

To take a penalty you need to be psychologically prepared.

When it then comes to the final of a huge championship, you need to have nerves of steel and be highly prepared in your mind.

How can you bring in two players who have not played up to 2 minutes and have not been in the game.

If those boys had played at least 25 minutes they would have been mentally prepared for the huge pressure.

But all the young black boys lost all their penalties Eeeee get as he be.

daveP:


Mancini deserves this totally.

Waste of Subs.

Even Rohr isn't this foolish. Just for saying sake

Agreed.


Today and on this occasion he is a big DUNCE

On this occasion Gareth Southgate is a complete Dundee United.

Is it now with one minute to go he wants to bring on Rashford and Sancho.

Has he lost his brain

daveP:
The energy alone wont allow the Wingers space.


These CBs are ageing but they know exactly their game. Harry Kane is strolling here. If they can get someone to pressure C&B, perhaps the game will tilt in their favor. For now, its all Italy with the unmatched grit.


The foul on Saka is proof that C&B are scared of him.

Extra Time. Italians have shown the Spirit and with flair.

They are excellent, experienced and intelligent and that works very well against a slow and immobile Kane.

However against the blistering pace of Rashford and Sancho it will be TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

IMO

daveP:
That was almost a goal.



I wont lie, if na Rohr leave this idle Kane on the pitch, we would have been blasting and lambasting him!!!


Let me face front.

Agreed without question

daveP:
The Spirit of the Italians is way beyond any tactical superiority right now. These guys are damn playing like its the end of the world, and at the same time besting the English Midfield with pinpoint accurate passes and flair. I love what I'm seeing. Only they haven't gotten any solution to stopping Shaw for now.


Rome or Home?

If England can somehow keep it 1-0 until the 65th minute.

Then they should bring in more pace with Rushford and Saka because as Italy become desperate to score there will be space for fast players to take advantage and push Italy for a second goal.

As well as push the slower and ageing CB'S of Italy who wil struggle.

Subzero047:
One to watch :

Name - Dennis Adeniran
Position - Midfield
Age - 22years
Club - Sheffield Wednesday

Curious why is he one to watch ❓

I remember when the left Fulham to Everton was not outstanding and then a few loan moves he is in league one with Sheffield Wednesday.

RiceProducers:

ISWAP/ Boko Haram are actually being "terminated with prejudice" on the battle field.
If other enemies of Nigeria morph into something like them, they would be meeting same fate. I say it again NK feels lucky that Nigeria was magnanimous and that Buhari is not the Saudi King OR Putin. Kanu won't be consuming oxygen now otherwise. Ask him, he knows he should be dead.
For every young fool daring this country, just read its history.

Two completely different issue here and you are trying very erroneously to merge the two.

Not sure why, but l will indulge you today.

The Megalomaniac Nnamdi does not have overwhelming support, he makes a lot of noise with a few misguided and ill informed and on many cases poorly educated supporters.

I have not seen anybody from the Igbo elite giving him support, l have not seen any elected official from state to Federal level give him support. Nnamdi cannot win a Senate seat In a free and fair election.

By talking about him so much your giving assumed credibility to a person who has none.

Book haram are still alive and kicking and have been for the past 10 years. All the election promises PMB made he had fulfilled next to nothing.

The Nigerian nation is in its worst state of insecurity since it's inception. Our security infrastructure has FAILED COMPLETELY.

There is absolutely nothing to celebrate we are facing an existent crisis across the nation.

Illumined939:
The Blessed Nnamdi Kanu, the man of the people.
Years from now, the Blessed Nnamdi Kanu would be in the league of Nelson Mandela.
After all, Mandela was termed a terrorist. He was even charged for murder.

So, we the children of light are not distracted by the evils of the Nigeria Government. We are a moving train.

Sycophantic delusions.

You really do not know this megalomaniac, you should ask why the original executive committee that birthed IPOB particular the members in the UK have nothing to do with Nnamdi.

DubaiLandLord:
Unknown gunmen have invaded the National Tuberculosis and Leprosy Centre (NTLC) in Zaria, abducting five workers and two others, in the early early hours of Sunday.

They also attacked a Police Divisional Headquarters around the centre.

A staff of the centre who craved anonymity revealed that those kidnapped include two males and five females of which five are staff of the centre while the rest two are non-staff.
The source explained that, “The gunmen stormed the Saye village in large number blocking the bridge leading to the Leprosy Centre while some invaded the centre and others attacked the police divisional headquarters.”

LEADERSHIP gathered that all the females taken away are nursing mothers kidnapped along with their children.

About 48 bullets were shot at the police station thereby destroying some parts of the Patrol vehicle and smashing windows of some parked impounded vehicles within the premises.

Meanwhile, no life was lost in the attacks that lasted for about one hour.

Further investigation revealed that the gunmen, who also invaded the staff residential quarters of the centre, succeeded in forcing their way into the Principal’s house and three other residents before abducting the victims.

When contacted, the Kaduna State Police Public Relation Officer, ASP Mohammed Jalige, promised to communicate back after being briefed but did not call back as at the time of filing this report.

SOURCE

Did the police not return fire, engage, repel, overtake and annihilate.

Or what was the police response

iblawi:
You are the senseless one here.

The comparison was how Nigerian military dealt with BOKO Haram vs how US military handled Taliban.

Your small sense could only tell you that Talibans are better equipped than ISWAP and BOKO HARAM forgetting than US military is more equipped than any military in the world.

This is even coming after your failed attempt to prove US would do better if they were on home soil. Have they even solved the little mess they have at home? More people die yearly in US to gun misuse than the number of people killed by bandits + terrorist in Nigeria over 3 years.

Have they solved their immediate problem not to talk of solving terrorism issues if it happens?

Your post IMO makes no sense it's irreverent and takes matters out of context.

What is the relevance of domestic crime in the USA to the insurgency in the NE

The Taliban have budget and access to finance that exceeds many states put together in Nigeria.

They make billions from illicit drugs they get $billions in funding from Qatar, indeed they have an Embassy of sorts in Doa.

In addition Pakistan has given huge amounts of military and infrastructure support to the Taliban and created a safe haven for them. You should know they share a common border.

Your post is more senseless because it is without substance and is not anchored anything beyond sentiment and prejudice based preference.

I will give one example of comparison efficacy between the USA and Nigeria.

Just one US citizen, Mr Philip Walton, not two or three or even hundreds of citizens. Was kidnapped by bandits ( militants to me) and taken to Sokoto state.

Within hours of his location being ascertained Seal team 6, night time mission, great stealth helicopters, drones, etc all kidnappers smoked and Philip was on his way home. That was right in our backyard.

Now compare the response of our security infrastructure to the almost daily kidnap of citizens in the North. We even descended to dialogue with militant bandits.

I rest my case.

Litmus:
France aint pulling out, but, if by some chance it does, leading to further deterioration in Mali, Nigeria would be wise to leave it to Mali, Senegal and Ghana.

That would be the biggest MISTAKE Nigeria can make.

Allowing ISWAP to have a International HQ from which they can train, plan murderous mayhem across Africa as well as a relatively safe heaven for all their combatants.

This will empower the insurgents by many multiples in the North and extend the life span of ISWAP by decades in Nigeria.

It would mean all these bandits ( militants to me) will have a ready market for all their kidnap victims to be held in Mali until ransom is received.

Nigeria and ECOWAS should stop walking on egg shells, put together a force and reinstate the civilian regime.

Otherwise Mali will be come the playground of multiple interested foreign parties, harvesting her minerals while the nation falls into utter chaos complete destabilising the whole region.

And yes the Russians will in the background using Warner group to install and strengthen a despotic regime.

This is a NIGHTMARE SCENARIO l pray never happens. But with the inept, comatose and visionless regime we have seems plausible.

DubaiLandLord:
Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor, lawyer to the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has again opened up on the recent re-arrest and re-arraignment of his client.

Ejiofor made the disclosure during an exclusive interview on Arise News Morning Show on Monday, July 5, 2021.

Lawyer Ejiofor indicted Kenyan authorities who he said had beaten Nnamdi Kanu to a coma while holding him in illegal detention.

He also revealed that his client was held in a private residence instead of a legal detention facility as required by the law.

Ejiofor further maintained that Nnamdi Kanu never jumped bail but was forced to seek protection for his life which was as a result of a security breach by Nigerian security authorities.

Barrister Ejiofor also insisted that IPOB, though proscribed in Nigeria, was never ratified by any country or organization outside Nigeria.

He expressed worries that Nnamdi Kanu will not get a fair trial owing to the perceived “illegalities” involving the court presided by Justice Binta Nyako and the Department of State Security (DSS).

Source: Newwavereporters

Look at the diction a supposedly qualified lawyer ⚖ is using to justify illegality.

He was forced to seek protection for his life. Nnamdi was in custody for how long And did anything happen to him

Nnamdi is a bail jumping, common wanted criminal insighting violence against the state with an assumptive self birthed mandate for his version of the Igbo landlocked nation of what he calls Biafra.

Since when did the laws of a sovereign nation require to be ratified by other states before becoming law.

I wonder the law school that some of these lawyers have gone to. Trying to justify the UNJUSTIFIABLE by personal preference not legal principle.

QuietMynd:
Point of correction
Urhobo ethnic not tribe, we re in the 21st century.
The word tribe is only preserved for African by the racist west, go to rural Europe, u won't see the West call them tribe when talking about them.
To the Average westerners when mention tribe, all they think about is uncivilized people wearing leaves and chasing lion.
Pls don't let us join them in putting our people down.

What can l say.

After the substantive contribution l made. You make no comments on the substance of the discourse.

But some nonsensical assumption based on your own myopic perceptions, which is IRRELEVANT balderdash.

You are in need of redemption.

Rockyrascal:
The two commendable things rohr has done for our national team is convincing foreign based players to pledge allegiance and also assembling a young team that as played together since he was appointed.

With regards to the bold l completely disagree.

joscofelix2:
what do you know about battlefield, you ipob terrorist. let me give a hilux or join me next week as i tour to deep field , if you refused, then do come and make rubbish comment on this thread

You lack knowledge in the first instance but it's obvious you are anchored in ignorance. You think you can see but you don't know your blind.

I am unadulterated and undiluted from the Uhrobo tribe in Delta state. So your first crass allegation of " ipob terrorist " shows your myopic sense of reasoning and your limited education.

It would not have taken you that much to go through my past posts to have some idea of where I am coming from and where I have been. Ignorance is bliss, you did not do that.

To the man who knows nothing but thinks he knows everything, when wise men talk, in his stupidity he thinks it's foolishness.

Nuff Said.

Whyem15:
Desperately waiting for the delivery of the tucanos. It will change a lot on ground.

Concerning the weapons expected from China, I doubt if reasonable quantities of the VT4, SH5 and ST1 were bought. Pakistan recently took delivery of over 40 VT4s. Only six were delivered to Nigeria, I'm sure if the quantity ordered was reasonable, more than 6 would have been delivered.

I got lots of dogs abuse here when l called this
procurement bewildering ineptitude.

We are in an existent war and we are buying aircraft that will take over 5 years to arrive. Is that not foolishness or what would you call it?

Righteousness2:
So Unfortunate . Chidinmma is Evil but the man is fully responsible for his predicament.

Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

Chidinmma could be sent to Jail or Firing squad and she repents and makes Heaven.
The young man is dead in sin and is gone..

Do not let sin useless and destroy your life.
Flee Evil! Flee Ungodliness! Flee Worldliness..

Go and discover the true meaning of righteousness from a Biblical perspective.

After that let me remind you that " The man after Gods own heart ♥ " Had how many wives and concubines. I am making reference to King David from which the lineage of Christ our Lord and saviour emanated from.

We could add to that Abraham " A friend of God "

You have adopted the cultural dynamics of Eurocentric ideology and transposed them as Biblical principal. You are wrong.

Chidinma is a modern day Jezebel and the Whole blame in it's entirety from inception to the conclusion of her bloody murderous act of greed and unbridled wickedness rests with her.

And you are too quick to judge and condemn not on scripture but your own self righteous misleading perceptions.

You should REPENT because you're more guilty than him in your misguided and ignorant condemnation.

joscofelix2:
oga shut ⤴. you are a terrorist

And you are a patriotic intelligent Nigerian.

With people like you the future is very bright.

SamuelAnyawu:
Chabbal attack. Not up to 2km away from the biggest Army barracks in Maiduguri (Maimalari Barracks)

Over the past twelve months we have been fed a continuous meal of our armed forces supposedly gaining ground and wiping out Boko and ISWAP and all there associated partners.

When I questioned the huge disparity in facts with what we were being told and and what was clearly evident on the ground from multiple independent sources.

Some of us were labelled Boko sympathisers, unpatriotic and even liars.

It's pretty apparent the NA is simply not up to the task.

Our diction tells the story, repelling attacks but not claiming outright victory and control.

Essentially if bases less than 2km from Maudugiri are under brazen attack. It's not intelligence to assume there are now Boko sleeper cells in Maudugiri, that's common sense.

You can't use artillery shells and drop bombs in a civilian dominated area and city. Or have a scorched earth murderous strategy.

It's not looking good.

Whyem15:
This is where I must commend the CO of that base, he recognized that he had failed to notice the attack until it was too late and rather than wasting lives of troops under his command, he decided to give ground to the terrorists. It's far better to lose weapons than to lose men. He could have done better though. The troops will live to kill more terrorists another day.

Forgive my impudence.

But l absolutely do not share your view we are at complete opposite ends.

This is crass ineptitude and incompetence, you are in a hostile war zone. And you have zero situational awareness, that's unforgivable.

How can you commend dereliction of duty and failed leadership.

Is it a lack of knowledge or very low expectations, but we accept TOO MUCH RUBBISH in this our beloved country, at all levels. From the top to the bottom.

That's why we the giant of Africa are close to becoming a failed state.

Vaughanlanrewaj:
Men nko sir? He was married and still frolicking around dangerously in what the Yoruba call "ere egele ".
Sad as it, sometimes it takes this kind of disgraceful end to remind some of us not to take the grace of God upon our lives for granted while it tells those in it what awaits them if they don't repent right now.
May God console his widow and children. So sad. Thumbs up to the patriots in DSS 4and Nigeria Police that helped to unravel it and help recover his corpse for proper burial. May God help us to keep our marital vows and find peace, love and comfort in our marriages. visit FreeStuffsNG to hunt for free stuff in Nigeria.

You deviate completely from subject matter at hand.

But to add insult to injury your comment highlighted in bold is misrepresentation, disinformation where Christian Biblical marraige is concerned.

You should not take the historical Eurocentric cultural preference as Christian ethos biblical principal.

I challenge you to give us a scriptural Biblical reference for your supposed marraige vows. Please don't use conjecture or anecdotal preference. But clear biblical reference.

I will remind you that Abraham " friend of God" as well as King David " A man after Gods heart ♥ ". Had how many concubines as well as wives

Or before you pass judgement too quickly, consider the story of the prostitute Rahab.

Nuff Said.

Rebadged and Chinese manufactured sub standard Mig21's, I reallu do not know what there is to like.

From all indication the alpha jets 25 years plus have proved more reliable.

GeneralFarouq:
That post ought to have been taken down...
Out of hatred to a particular group of people in Nigeria, Babaowen deliberately li to frame the wrong regime for that awful mistake....
It is clear it happened under GEJ and dem Dasuki. So why deliberately and unjustifiably try to paint thiis rigime as incompetent.
One commendable action to be noted to this regime, is it's effortt in mitigating corruption in procurement process of arm and equipment ... Most if not all are deals and a few directly to identifiable companies ...

Am hardly surprised though, a liar reads and follow other liars, and that one obvious of infleunce of Sahara reporters him

The specifics are not particularly pertinent.

But with regards to the BOLD I am sure there would be wide spread overwhelming agreement that this regime. IS THE MOST INCOMPETENT, INEPT, LAWLESS and NEPOTISTIC, TRIBAL, to name a few of its attributes in.the entire history of Nigeria.

Whether GEJ instituted this particular arms dealer or not we have no evidence to the contrary. And your assertion " , Babaowen deliberately lied" is not substantiated as a result it's mere hearsay birthed from your own partisan perspective.

With regards to Sahara reporters before PMB came to power he got very favourable reviews from Sahara. But they have seen through the smoke screen and have rightly called a spade a spade.

No wonder the entire infrastructure of the federal state is used to hold Sowore without any iota of evidence or justification.
