Sports › Atletico Madrid Vs Barcelona: Liga Iberdola Women Match 0 - 2 (Full Time) by naptu2(op): 1:26pm On Mar 17, 2019

Asisato Oshoala is currently involved in a record breaking match as Atletico Madrid hosts Barcelona in a top of the table clash in the Liga Iberdola.

The match is expected to set a new attendance record for women's football in Europe. The game was moved from Atletico's training ground to the 68,000 capacity Wanda Metropolitano Stadium and the tickets were sold out days ago.

Atletico currently lead Barcelona by 6 points at the top of the league table and a victory today will virtually guarantee that they will win the title.

The match began at 1pm Nigerian time.

This is the version that was used as the theme song of LWT. It was produced by Quincy Jones.

Ernie Watts - Chariots of Fire (1982).

This is the original. It was the theme song of a movie of the same name. The movie was about the Olympics and I remember that it was very long.

No, it's not the same song. The song that was played on LWT was Chariots of Fire by Ernie Watts.

I know the song that he is talking about, but I don't know its name.

lonelydora:
Air Peace nah. Theirs is still be manufactured. All the local airlines you see in Nigeria have 2nd hand planes

Now you are trying to shift the goalpost. Your comment was that Nigerian airlines are not on that list because they will "wait to buy Tokunboh" of the Boeing 737 Max 8 (the aircraft that is the subject of this thread), thereby implying that Nigerian airlines can not buy brand new Boeing 737 Max 8.

Meanwhile, two Nigerian airlines (not just Air Peace) have placed orders for (brand new) aircraft from Boeing. That's not "second hand".

The reason that Nigerian airlines are not listed is because the planes are still being manufactured, not because "Na second hand we dey buy".

lonelydora:
Because na second hand we dey buy. Just like when Toyota or Honda recalls vehicle models, are you expecting your Cotonou bought 2005 Camry to follow?

Nigerian airlines have placed orders for the 737 Max 8 and the planes are currently being manufactured. See Wikipedia, Boeing's website and the BBC below.

That's not true. It is right there! Check September 18, 2018 (Air Peace - 10).

Not only is it on Wikipedia (see first link and first screenshot), it is also on Boeing's website (see second link and second screenshot).

I watched an interview with the head of the NCAA's office in Lagos on the 7pm news yesterday.

He said that there is not Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft that is registered to fly in Nigeria.

They asked him about the Air Peace order. He said that there is no problem with the order. He says that it takes roughly around 4 years to build the planes and that by the time the planes will be ready, Boeing would have discovered what the problem is and made the appropriate corrections, so there's no need for Nigerians to worry.

Nigeria is not even on that list sef..yet they have rushed and banned too..

People been killed everyday in Kaduna and Zamfara..Dem say na aviation sector wey no dey function sef be their problem

naptu2:
I think it's a reaction to the concerns of Nigerians. The NCAA had previously stated that no Boeing 737 Max 8 was registered to fly in Nigeria, but that didn't seem to satisfy Nigerians. In fact, on the thread that I created yesterday, someone claimed that Italian Airways was flying a 737 Max 8 into Nigeria last night.

It's necessary for the government to assuage the fears of Nigerians.

Last year, air peace said they bought new 8 Boeing 737 max8. How come they are not listed by the company?
#RefurbishedTokunbo

They ordered for 10 planes (it's on Boeing's website). The planes are still being manufactured.
