SportsRe: Forgotten Players In Nigerian Soccer by lafile(m): 8:35am On Mar 23, 2007
Oladimeji Lawal was the hot right winger who played with Phillip Osondu in the Fifa U-17 Championship in Canada 1987. Chris Ohenhen was the freekick specialist who played in the 1989 Fifa U-21 Champinship. Think he scored about 4 freekicks.
BTW so nobody on this forum can help me with the Eagles 1988 Nations cup squad. When did y'all start watching football? 1994 world cup?
SportsPre-kanu Gunners, Pre-abramovich Blues Do Not Exist by lafile(op): 4:59pm On Mar 22, 2007
Can any body dispute this fact? There were no arsenal fans in Nigeria before Kanu played for them. There were no Chelsea fans before Abramovich started His spending spree. Arsenal Fans are simply follow-follow. They are just former Ajax fans who followed Kanu to England. Chelsea fans support Chelsea cos they hope the Russians money will rub off on them.For me, i have been supporting Man U since the 2003/2004 Season.

24 for sure. Prison break shouldn't have gone beyond season 1. They certainly cant sustain it beyond season 3, cos i'm sure they'll try another one after this not so interesting season 2. 24 will go on to season 24.

Christianity EtcRe: Is It Wrong For Churches To Wed Couples With Pregnant Brides? by lafile(m): 2:14pm On Mar 20, 2007
From what i know, no church will refuse you getting married if you are pregnant. They will only refuse to wed you in the church. They will recognise your marriage, even encourage you to get married in the registry or something. They will not condemn you. In many churches it is a policy to conduct pregnancy tests for brides a day or two before the wedding. In my church for example, you are told at least 16 weeks before your wedding all the requirements, including the pregnancy tests. if you still decide to get pregnant knowing that you will not be wed, na you sabi. They even tell you it is not compulsary to wed in the church. they will even attend your reception. why join 3 people at the altar when you are supposed to join two?

@ Donnie and Lysaa
You guys have not represented your church adequately. haba. you have not made any categorical staement concerning this issue since page 5 of this thread. was any stolen money brought to a branch of Christ embassy? yes or no? if yes what if anything was done about it? if you dont know say you dont know simple. stop beating about the bush. only guilty people do that. stop using the 'touch not my annointed' defence. it wont wash. nobody is touching any annointed. we are just trying to clear up issues. all you guys have done is muddle it further.
Christianity EtcRe: Which Is The Most Powerful Spiritual Churches Or Prayer Houses In Nigeria by lafile(m): 12:51pm On Mar 09, 2007
@ Evept

What does your friend need that can only be done in a 'spiritual church'?
If your friend needs something from God, all he/she needs to do is look into Gods word to see what God has said concerning it, claim those promises believing in faith and see what God can do. Note that Gods promises are for His children.

believing that a problem can only be solved in a certain place/church equates putting your faith in that place/church and not God.
SportsRe: Pele And Maradonna! by lafile(m): 12:41pm On Mar 09, 2007
In comparing players, what should be the criteria? You cant just judge on how they play because they played in different eras under different rules with the game itself in different stages of development. I personally judge based on the impact they had on their teams.

In 1958 when Brazil won their first world cup, Pele was a 17 year old boy. he was a sight to see. but objectively, he was just a wonder kid. same as messi and fabregas is today.

In 1962, when Pele was more matured and ready to explode, injury spoilt his world cup.

The Brazil team of 1970 is still hailed today as the best ever team to grace any world cup. They won the world cup and Pele contributed. Howeve, everybody agrees that even without Pele, Brazil would still have won the world cup.

Most of the Goals he scored were scored when he played in the US. The statistics are really not a yardstick to judge.

Maradona on his part had an immense impact on the game. Certainly Argentina would not have won the world cup in 1996 without Maradona. Lets also not forget that he single handedly took them to the 1990 final. Napoli was nothing before Maradona, and they have been nothing after him.

So in my estimation Maradona was a better player.
PoliticsRe: Opinion Polls Will Discourage Election Rigging? by lafile(m): 9:35am On Mar 09, 2007
In Nigeria, the question is who really cares about the verdict of opinion polls? Most opinion polls showed Donald Duke as most peoples choice. But even at that we all knew he wouldn't get the PDP nomination. Even when Silverbird's poll showed Okotie as Nigerias choice, nobody pretended he was a front runner. And even if a widespread, all inclusive poll was conducted and the result differs significantly from the actual election results, what can be done about it. You still cant prove rigging.
PoliticsAnambra Gubernatorial Election: A One Horse Race by lafile(op): 9:23am On Mar 09, 2007
The Independent National Electoral Commission yesterday failed to include the name of a former governor of Anambra State, Dr. Chris Ngige in the list of 479 candidates cleared for the April 14 governorship election. Others affected include All Progressives Grand Alliance‘s candidate for Anambra, Governor Peter Obi, the Action Congress candidate for Delta State, Chief Peter Okocha, the All Nigeria Peoples Party governorship candidate for Anambra State, Chief Nicholas Ukachukwu.

Free and fair Elections indeed.

PoliticsLeave Adedibu, Akala Alone - Obj [efcc How Far?] by lafile(op): 8:55am On Mar 09, 2007
Below is a report on President Obasanjo's utterances at Ibadan, from Nigeria

[center]Obasanjo says leave Adedibu alone
[/center]
President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday in Ibadan described Lamidi Adedibu as a politician that cannot be reformed and one who should not be chided publicly. “Baba is not an angel and he is not perfect but whatever his shortcomings, he can be privately corrected. He can be corrected secretly and I am sure that he will surely change. This is what I have been telling the people; whatever his shortcomings, we should let him know but decently and we should not also fail to point out the areas where he is good.”



Obasanjo also endorsed the governorship candidacy of Alao-Akala who was publicly described as corrupt by anti graft agency boss Nuhu Ribadu. “In Oyo PDP, there is enough space for everybody. In Oyo State, there are many competent people who can fly the party’s flag but Alao-Akala is the best candidate for the party in the state,” he said. Obasanjo was in Ibadan along with other PDP wigs campaigning for the party’s presidential candidate and his deputy


How can this man even pretend to be fighting corruption? What does EFCC and Ribadu have to say about this? How come after publicly calling Akala corrupt he does not name him in that corrupt politicians list? Can we trust EFCC and OBJ?
Music/RadioRe: I Need Some Tips On Song Writing by lafile(m): 8:48am On Mar 09, 2007
Most contributions have been very good. A song is not just what you say, but how u say it. The rhyme scheme is very important. Its understandable if you want to express your thots first then think of the rhymes later, but think of the rhyme you must.

there are multiple structures so dont be rigid or stereotyped.
Very Important when writing songs: hear the song in your head.
Christianity EtcRe: Is The Biblical Cain The Son Of Lucifer Or The Son Of Adam? by lafile(m): 11:58am On Mar 08, 2007
@ Zebra
My dear Bro?Sis, not everyone who calls him/herself born again actually is. Check from Genesis to Revelation, you will not find any hint, insinuation or allusion that contradicts Genesis 4:1 -Adam lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, "With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man."

If there was any truth to the cain-lucifer story, God would have said it in the bible. Trust me, He of all people, would know.

FamilyRe: Tips For Christian Married Couples? by lafile(m): 1:22pm On Mar 05, 2007
In addition to the wonderful posts (Like the one by Omoge)
Never Never Never take your spouse for granted. Love her/him the way they want to be loved not the way you think they should be loved. Give and keep on giving. (Time, energy, advice, money). keep to the spirit and letter of your vow. Remember you marriage is really about the two of you. everyother thing (including your children) comes a distant second.

Dirt is good in the sense that it is a mark of some achievement, especially for kids. Its is good that the girl on the advert is expressing her gardening talents at a young age. or that the boy (with his father) is showing his flair for mechanical engineering. or that the other boy is exhibiting the future of nigerian footbal. in this context, dirt is good.
