Yibbbowwws are cunningly dishonest. It's now a geopolitical zone and not Igbos.
In another breathe, one ediot will tell me that the Ohaneze leader is Igbo from Delta state.
Just like Northerners, they practice core Igbos and periphery Igbos.

Swear say you no be ashawo

no one is saying that Jonathan should not be probed but you must also probe Obasanjo who spent billions of dollars on power without giving Nigerians light

Igbos should stop abusing Yoruba for Buhari's victory now, they should be praising Yoruba for Jonathan's victory in 2011 instead. Whether they like it or not, Buhari is their president and nothing they can do about this. Yooooooooooo! You may hang yourself oooo, I dont care. Even if my English is too poor, I dont care.

I don't blame you, I blame your father who could stopped all this nonsense with a simple condom

Sunday Oliseh should take an age grade team or any club side, whether in Europe or in Africa and let us judge him. Others are making their mark and proving their coaching capabilities.

Until then, he is not an option.

Is Oliseh an option now?

Yes Biafra is a fraud that Ajokutamumi people want to use to lure the SS and take their resources.

Since 1999 up till 2014, igbo people never taught of seccession but when they realised GEJ was going to loose they started clamouring 4 their ridiculous BIAFRA. With this, they decided to drag the SS with them by showing sympathy to GEJ and attacking SS and the North.

SS should just beware of this people and Buhari should frankly deal with any tribe causing treasonable offences, the way the igbo are.

its ur father that is a fraud because he could have stopped all this nonsense u are writing with a simple condom

Eagles 0 Spotlight Katsina 0

Some months ago I had warned that Pinnick and his board should save Nigerians further heart ache by not renewing keshi's contract. The reason being that Keshi is so poor in technique and tactics that his teams are rarely able to create clear-cut chances, and consequently of course rarely score goals. How can anyone explain that Super Eagles played for 90 minutes, failed to score a goal, and failed to beat amateur Spotlight of Katsina? Any team coached by Keshi will find it difficult to score goals even if they play against an amateur Division 5 team! Actually this is just as good as what he did with the last AFCON qualifiers where he failed to qualify for the Nations Cup despite being drawn in a very easy group comprising lowly teams like Sudan and Congo.

I am certain that any of Nigeria's top clubs -Kano Pillars, Enyimba, Warri Wolves, etc - would have beaten this Spotlight easily, just as I am certain that Manu Garba's Flying Eagles would have spelt Spotlight with goals. The problem with Eagles is not the players the problem is Keshi.

Way Forward

Sack Keshi immediately and promote Manu Garba and his Flying Eagles once they are done with the U-20 world cup

The major mistake of GEJ then was the sudden removal of the subsidy without adequate sensitization of the nation.

It was completely wrong for any government, more so a democratic one, to just wake up and announce to the whole nation that subsidy has been removed without having discussed the plan with the majority of the stakeholders.

No one will accept it in their right mind!

even if he had tried to discuss it first, these same people would have said NO

the reason there is no scarcity in SE is the same reason they want their own country

Nigeria must allow a referendum to hold to determine the future of Biafra

have you ever ensured anything in ur life?

Mr Trailblazer quit this overflogged issue. Do you know it's easier for a camel to pass through the eyes of a needle than for a non Ibo to be a common market trader association chairman in Ochanja, Ogbete and Aba markets? The Igbos have a fairer deal outside than they have given to others in their own land even in the same Lagos. The Lagos issue was to me an unfortunate one off incidence which many wants to capitalize on for political gains.

You are lying Mr Phillips. The issue is there no non-Igbo traders in those markets and not that they are not allowed to become leaders

7 years is way too harsh just for trying to escape. He should have been given like 6 months for trying to escape and another 6 months for the man he beat up. 7yrs! did he commit murder?

That 2007 team was a total fraud, their keeper dele Ajiboye wife was already pregnant with his second child when he was playing in that world cup

Fraud does not pay. None of the players from that team has gone ahead to become a big star

if an uneducated, uneemployed youth had said the things that Ariyo said, we wouldn't have bothered but it's simply unacceptable for a qualified doctor who has lived in a foreign land for decades to spew such hate

If Ariyo has lived in US for 20 years, he must be a US citizen by now but he cannot see that non-indigenes who have lived in Lagos for decades ought to be treated as indigenes

An efficient state govt should be able to generate enough IGR to pay workers and use federal allocation for developmental projects.

If the workers cant generate enough revenues to pay their salaries, sack some of them! This is common sense and better than having to owe everybody for 13 months. Being owed for 13 months is as good as not having a job any way.



I no even understand these workers sef; if you owe me for 2 months, I don waka o

The 1985 team was the best team ever in my opinion based on some outstanding features:

1. The first National team to win a FIFA organised competition
2. All the players were drawn from secondary schools, YSFON, and street soccer competitions.
3. Only Nigeria and Hungary had all players without club affiliation.
4. The players youthful innocence was indisputable and they played football with youthful exuberance and wanton pleasure.
5. The players were either of the age they claimed or close to it. Nine of the players were from Benin and coincidentally I was living in Benin then enabling me to know some.
6. Because of their success and the attendant rewards and world attention subsequent teams became politicized with quota system and win at all cost syndrome resulting in the use of over-age players.
7. The team had little government presence unlike subsequent once. Much of their needs were undertaken by YSFON.

Nigerian players were selected from school teams.

Agreed the 1985 team was relatively very young. I remember that Chukwuma Nwoha was still a student at Union secondary School Enugu when he played for that team

Let me start with the worst team so far: the crown goes to the 1995 team. That team can give you hypertension if you are not careful. A team that will create chances upon chances and fail to score even with open goal post. The team had a top 9, one squat short guy, named Edward Anyamkeh, that guy would not score even if the opponents play without a goal keeper.

The best has to be the 2013 team, cause the team had to go through MRI tests, were very young and played complete football. The problem with most of the other teams is they paraded players that were over-aged by far; like fortune chukwudi of 2009 that palyed u-17 seven years after he registered as an 18 year old player with Sharks! The 1993 team too had players that would not have been u-17, even Kanu was already playing for Nationale and would not have been all that u-17 in 1993.

Perhaps Austin Eguavoen is a very unlucky coach; his team to the 2003 world cup lost the group stage to the toss of a coin. The team was however relatively young, which was commendable going by the standards at that time. To Eguavoen's credit, some of the players he took to the 2003 world cup like Mikel and Obasi have gone ahead to become successful footballers and represent Nigeria at the u-20, Olympics, and the world cup . Otherwise, Eguavoen's team was the only one that ever failed to qualify from their group

Yes; as usual, you will be quick to condemn OBJ for ALLEGEDLY sleeping with Gbenga's wife, but you won't ever see anything wrong with A whole " Eze Ndigbo" of Australia [Chief Maximus Osuamadi] that was nabbed & jailed in Sydney for running a drug syndicate.

Since your lot claim to be jewish more than the israelis; I wonder how many of Abraham's descendants were drug barons.

Hypocrite!

shut up ur mouth. Ndi Igbo has no Eze in Australia

that's better. I would have been surprised if the respected Prof had said those things about my Ibo people who have been the unsung heroes of Buhari's victory.

The story has not been told enough of how that many Ibos in SE APC put their blood on the line to stop PDP from writing the type of result they wrote for Rivers State for SE

The story needs to be told that whereas SE gave Jonathan about seven million votes in 2011, he only got about two million this time around ; and had SE APC allowed PDP to write seven million votes for Jonathan again, the 'clueless' man would have returned elected!

you cant blame FG for APC state govts not paying their workers

Shut up ur mouth Rivers APC. what was ur contribution to Buhari's election? A paltry 50, 000 votes.

If APC in other SS and SE states had allowed PDP return over a million votes, Jonathan would have returned elected
