I arrived Rome on Wednesday from Helsinki, Finland.

The first day, I met up with an old friend from Uruguay, that I've not seen for over 20 years. He's been living in Italy for almost
20 years after him japa from Uruguay, for greener pasture.

On Thursday, I was craving some Naija food, so I searched on google and I found this spot called Afrik Cavour Kitchen.

Below are some photos. The food was delicious. The total came up to 25 euros because I asked for an extra pounded yam, but then I gave them 5 euros tip, because they were nice people. I would give more, but I'm a poor man.

Tinubu has said he would no longer travel with huge security delegations to any state.


-If the president travels to any state, the security in the state would take care of his safety and the same applies to the vice-president and other government officials.

Fellow Nairalanders,

I hereby declare a total war against name checkers on Nairaland.

Anyone who draws attention to the tribe of a criminal on a thread about a crime will be banned. This applies regardless of whether they do it overtly or covertly. Every offender will collect a ban because this is regarded as a tribal insult.

The minimum ban period is 14 days. If you have offended multiple times, it's 30 days. If you keep offending, you may be permanently banned.

- Seun Osewa.

Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo has commended the developmental effort of the Chairman of Diamonds Leed Limited, High Chief Kenneth Ifekudu OFR Agbalanze as he unveils some community development interventions in the State, stating that it is one of the individual efforts the State needs to move ahead.

Agbalanze Ifekudu whose projects include a massive mansion, community market stalls including several community roads were unveiled in his hometown, Ozubulu, Anambra State, was commissioned by the Governor.

The project commissioning which coincides with the housewarming of his new mansion at Ifekudu’s country home was witnessed by some top Anambra State government officials and indigenes. They include Chief Chinedu Madubuko (De Chico Group), Senator Tony Nwoye, Senator Osita Ngwu, Hon. Nwaobosi, Hon. Idu, Hon Prof. Lilian, Hon Chinwe, Hon Peter, Hon Maureen, Hon Chinedu, among others.

Besides Ifekudu’s giant stride in bringing life and developmental interventions in his country home, the billionaire businessman graced the mansion unveiling with an exotic Rolls Royce phantom car to the admiration of his business associates.

The exquisite castle of High Chief Agbalanze Ifekudu who was recently conferred as the Ifechukwu Nnewi is located at Ozubulu in Anambra State.

COUNTDOWN TO AFCON: 10 DAYS

Would it be a funny question if I ask who the greatest Nigeria Super Eagles player to wear the number 10 jersey is? I believe nearly everyone would chorus Okocha. But what if you are wrong?

What if history and stats say otherwise?

Today, we'll explore the greatest Nigerian players to wear football's most iconic jersey number; 10

📌Jay Jay Okocha
📌Etim Esin
📌John Obi Mikel
📌Henry Nwosu

🦅Etim Esin:
Nicknamed "African Maradona" because of his exceptional talent, Etim had one of the shortest period with the Super Eagles but cannot be ignored. He's seen by international media as one of the most gifted players Nigeria has ever had.

Etim made just 8 appearances for Nigeria, 6 of which were World Cup qualifiers. Etim's career was cut short because he was reportedly banned by FIFA on accusation of raping and impregnating a minor during his playing days in Belgium, something that was later proven false after the Belgian girl gave birth to a child with no trace of black blood. Despite being vindicated, the incidence, coupled with his other past discipline issues had already dented his football career badly.

Late Stephen Keshi has this to say about Etim Esin
"We had Etim Esin and relied so much on him. The team was built around him because he had so much skill and had so much to offer. So we said this is our “Diego Maradona” in Nigeria because he can do anything with the ball. It was like he was born with the ball.”

Etim's International stats are:
📌Debut: 1987
📌Position: CM
📌Appearances: 8
📌Goals: 1
📌Assists: 0
📌Trophies: 0
📌Duration with Super Eagles: 1 year

🦅Jay Jay Okocha:
If Etim Esin is known as one of the most gifted players from Nigeria, then Okocha is one of the most gifted the world of football has ever produced.

Okocha was never named after anyone like "African Pele" or "African Maradona". Okocha was simply Okocha, and that name was and still is a BIG NAME.

Okocha represented Nigeria at 4 AFCON and 3 World Cups, winning one AFCON and being included in a World Cup Best 11.

Okocha left Super Eagles as Nigeria's best dribbler, best freekick taker, best passer, and most entertaining player.

His international stats are;
📌Debut: 1994
📌Position: CM, AM
📌Appearances: 75
📌Goals: 15
📌Assists: 2
📌Trophies/Medals: 9 (1x AFCON Title, 1x AFCON Top Scorer, 2x BBC African Best, 1x Olympics Gold Medal, 1x AFCON Silver medal, 3x AFCON Bronze medal)
📌Duration with Super Eagles: 12 years (1994-2006)

🦅John Obi Mikel:
Stepping into Okocha's big and heavy shoes almost immediately was young John Mikel.

Fresh from an outstanding U-20 world cup where he was second best to Leo Messi, Mikel caused a transfer tussle between Chelsea and Manchester United before arriving at Nigeria's senior team

His arrival was highly anticipated as he had already shown his calibre at the U-20 World cup.

Mike represented Nigeria at 5 AFCON, 3 World Cup, 1 Confederations Cup, 1 Olympics, 1 U-20 World Cup and 1 U-17 World Cup.

📌Debut: 2005
📌Position: DM, CM, AM
📌Appearances: 91
📌Goals: 6
📌Assists: 12
📌Trophies/Medals: 8 - (1x AFCON, 1x Olympics Bronze, 1x U-20 World Cup silver Ball, 1x U-20 World Cup Silver medal, 3x AFCON Bronze medal, 1x CAF Most Promising Talent)
📌Duration with Super Eagles: 14 years (2005-2019)

🦅Henry Nwosu
Henry Nwosu is remembered as Nigeria's youngest player among the AFCON 1980 winning team. He represented Nigeria at 4 AFCON,

His international stats are;
📌Debut: 1980
📌Position: AM, RM
📌Appearances: 60
📌Goals: 8
📌Assists: 0
📌Trophies: (1x AFCON, 2x AFCON silver Medal)
📌Duration with Super Eagles: 11 years (1980-1991)

Guys, what is the fun in clubbing abeg? Few days ago I went to a club. Here is what I observed

1. Some girls hustling to get hook up gigs.
2. Some guys trying so hard to out spend each other.
3. A new job industry has been created for hype men. Whatever that means.
4. How can the smoking of shi sha be legal?
5. You cannot have a good time in a club. It's too noisy
6. I will never go there again.

Name the roads and how much is released so we can track it

The money NNPC released for umuhia ikot ekpene road... Nothing has changed on that road absolutely nothing

Aba ikot expene road there is work going on there but the akwa ibom side is still the way it is

Calabar itu road is still as bad as it is nothing has been done

Owerri port Harcourt road is not good

Owerri aba road still not good

Once again you are not smart and you don't see the picture so I would not expect you to be sensible enough. You called me a smart idiot okay, but you are a court jester just fit for amusement, you are not worth any intelligence or any useful purpose

Irony1:
Shut up your mouth there. The gas fields and crude oil are located where is it not in the south south and south east. Is it not economically prudent to rum the Eastern railway. The standard gauge rail to Kano was just for politics that is why the revenue cannot even pay the debt in itself. Just shut up

Pussyisgud:
Lol, next time try to use your brain to do more useful things instead of analyzing nonsense wey u no even understand.

Irony1:
Dude why is it that when you are boxed in, you act like a bigger idiot. You are so deluded that you keep imagining that I harbor hate for Yoruba and Fulani that is not true, you are projecting your hatred for igbos to gaslight me. This is clearly not taking anywhere in your miserable life. See it is very clear that Lagos -Kano route is not profitable. NiWA said 60% of inbound cargo for Nigeria ends up in Onitsha and Aba, if you have sense you should know that the Lagos to East and the Eastern route to the North has the potential of being the most profitable route as the people who are trade oriented occupy that route

Pussyisgud:
Tilumgbu wan go import fellow creemenal

Irony1:
Oga stop the BS eye service why is it that the railway line from Kano to Lagos has not churned a profit since, let us leave profit why has it not been able to breakeven? Oga you need to wake up. You stay in USA and you make senseless assumptions online to deceive people.

Irony1:
Why was standard gauge used, when it was evident that the Lagos Kano corridor was not profitable and the ROI was poor? Oga stop playing too much semantics

Social media influencer, Reno Omokri, has urged President Bola Tinubu to ban sports betting apps in the country.

According to Omokri, a ban on sports betting apps could even help improve the value of the Naira.

Omokri, who quoted the National Lottery Trust Fund. lamented that “$1 billion is spent on gambling daily in Nigeria.”

The media influencer expressed his views in a series of tweets shared via his X profile on Wednesday.

His tweet read, “President Tinubu can immediately improve the economic conditions of most Nigerians and make the Naira grow by issuing an Executive Order authorising the Nigerian Communications Commission to ban sports betting apps from the App Store of any GSM Internet Service Provider in Nigeria and revoking the licenses of any physical sports betting operators in Nigeria. It makes better sense than Buhari’s draconian #TwitterBan.”

The former Special Assistant to erstwhile President Goodluck Jonathan stated that an average Nigerian spends “$15 daily on sports betting and other types of gambling.”

Omokri noted that despite the high rate of gambling in the country, the “vast majority of that amount” is leaving the shores of the country into foreign nations, compared to the nation’s externally generated revenue.

“This is scary. How much is our GDP that we are pissing it away like that? More money is leaving Nigeria through gambling than is coming in,” he wrote.

Omokri cautioned., “The Naira can never sustain its rally under such circumstances.”

The tweet stated further, “There is such an epidemic of gambling in Nigeria and it is destroying Nigerian youths. $1 billion is spent on gambling daily in Nigeria, according to the National Lottery Trust Fund. Please fact-check me.

“The average Nigerian spends $15 daily on sports betting and other types of gambling, with the vast majority of that amount leaving our economy and going to places like Russia, South Africa, and Europe. The Naira can never sustain its rally under such circumstances.”

Findings by PUNCH Online reveal that several sports betting firms operate in Nigeria. Some of the betting firms include Bet9ja, Nairabet, Merry Bet and SportyBet, amongst others.

Omokri, in his post, further urged Tinubu to “act on such a matter as threatening to our national security as this gambling epidemic.”

He also condemned the illegal means through which some Nigerian youths sought money “to fund their gambling habit.”

PUNCH Online reports that the Minister of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Zephaniah Jisalo, said the Federal Government would find a lasting solution to the friction caused by revenue generation in the gaming sector.

Jisalo noted that the FG “will do all within its statutory powers to ensure the gaming industry remains on the steady path of sustainable growth and development,” while speaking at the 2023 International Gaming Conference held at the Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos State, on Tuesday, October 31, 2023.

The Fund’s Executive Secretary/Chief Executive Officer, Bello Maigari, appearing before the House of Representatives Committee on Finance on Monday, November 20, 2023, stated that the Fund, in 2023, generated N2.5 billion, noting however that the entire sum had been spent in the execution of various projects across the country.

The money, he said, was generated from statutory remittances from licenses and permit holders.
