41) Road To Bali (Bing Crosby and Bob Hope)

Bing Crosby and Bob Hope were very succesful singers, actors and comedians. They achieved great success in the 1940s and '50s with their "Road To. . ." series of films. The film that was usually shown as a holiday movie on Nigerian television in the '70s, '80s and '90s was The Road To Bali.

39) Hey Abott! (Abott and Costello special introduced by Milton Berle)

This was probably my favourite holiday special ever. It's a special about two legendary comedians and it was presented by another legend.

I don't have a video of the actual special, so instead I'll post videos of two of Abott and Costello's most famous routines (which have been copied by hundreds of other comedians).

Who's On First?

Do you think you know arithmetic? Well, you'll be surprised and confused when you see Abott and Costello's arithmetics.

30) Allo Allo
I think that this sitcom was first shown on Nigerian TV in 1989, as part of NTA2 Channel 5's Super 7:20 belt.

31) Navy sitcom
I cannot remember the name of this sitcom, but it was shown on Nigerian TV in the early 1980s. The end credits had a picture of two naval ships fighting. We usually tried to guess which ship would win the battle. The battle usually ended when one ship sank the other.

I would be very happy if someone can remind me of the title of the sitcom.

32) Hopscotch sitcom

I cannot remember the name of this sitcom. It is a British about some kids that home alone. I think their mother was in the hospital or something like that. The sitcom was about the things they did so that people would not know that they were on their own.

The opening credit showed the kids playing hopscotch on the street.

I would be very happy if someone can remind me of the title of the sitcom.

25) It’s Your Move (I’m sorry darling)
This is another regular holiday movie. The only words that were spoken in this movie were spoken by a parrot that kept repeating, “I’m sorry darling”.

26) Are You Being Served?

27)Oh, God!

This is another hilarious holiday movie.
God appears to the manager of a supermarket and tells him that he has been selected to be God's new messenger to the world.

The manager faces opposition from atheists and from some pastors (because God told him that the pastors are fake). One of the pastors sues him because he publicly declared that the pastor is fake. The supermarket manager has to defend himself, prove the existence of God and hope that God testifies on his behalf in court.

It stars George Burns as God.

11) Mixed Blessings

There were people who always had to announce that “Muriel Oduntan is Nigerian” anytime this show was on air.

It’s about a black girl and a white boy who fall in love and get married. However, both their fathers are extremely racist. The show is about how the fathers come to terms with the fact that they have in-laws that are of a different colour and how the mothers try to keep peace and keep the fathers in line.

I particularly like the episode in which the white father-in-law had to defend his daughter-in-law when he was talking to another racist.

12) Love Thy Neighbour

A white racist discovers that his new neighbour is black. What’s worse, the neighbour also works in the same company and attends the same pub that he attends. The white guy tries various schemes to get rid of the black man, but they always backfire and the white guy is usually the butt of the jokes. There’s also the fact that the white man secretly admires the black man’s wife.

shame on NFF


if not for rashidad that's helping the u20

what will be the fate of Nigerian female football. when we should be talking of world dominance, even the African dominance is fast slipping out from us

That's what Desire Oparanozie was complaining about yesterday.

robosky02:
I think we have had enough of Amaju Picnick lead NFF continues neglet of female football in Nigeria




1 Former Super Eagles skipper, Joseph Yobo, has expressed his sadness over the poor treatment meted on players of the Super Falcons since they returned from this 2016 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
the Falcons were not paid outstanding allowances after wining the female AFCON


2. since winning the Female Afcon the team had not kicked a single ball no comping, no friendly just nothing


3. you may say they just participated in WAFU few days ago. the truth is we fielded our u20 girls instead of real super falcons


4. the team had no coach for over 2 yeas after their truph. they just had one appointed when world cup qualifies is already under way

5. for the first time in the history african female football Cameroon defeated our u17 to qualify for a tournament we have never failed to qualify

6. even the WAFU competition we had no team hence our fielding under 20 girls. and of course for the first time too Ghana knocked us out at the semis


Nigeria is certainly loosing its power force in african football no thanks to amaju picnic.


cc: Blessograo, safarigirl, Mediapace, optional1, klexycole, TheSuperNerd, mikron, Truckpusher, KingTom,

The NFF focused its attention on the Super Eagles' qualification for Russia 2018 to the detriment of all other national teams. Apart from the complete neglect of women's football, Nigeria did not qualify for either the under 17 or under 20 world cups in 2017.

Proudlyngwa:
See as the stadium empty.
This is where lukaku should be playing and arsene Wenger coaching, two useless people.

Even b4 I opened the thread, I knew it was the one and only Naptu2.

@ bold, I call it the "Stadium illusion".

I attended a match a long time ago in which the stadium was almost three-quarters full. I took pictures during the game and posted it on the internet. Someone who saw the pictures was complaining that the stadium was empty. His complaint made me angry, but I looked at the picture again and understood what happened.


I'm going to explain this using Nigerian terms.

Stadiums usually have a covered or VIP section, two sections behind the goals and a fourth section that is known as "Popular Side" in Nigerian English.

The covered section usually has the best seats and is usually closer to the main entrance, while the Popular Side usually has the worst seats and is usually further away from the main entrance.

Most people prefer to sit near the VIP section, especially when the tickets are not too expensive.


I was seated in the State Box, which is in the covered section, 90% of the spectators were also seated in the covered section, but my camera was facing the Popular Side which was empty. Therefore it looked as if the stadium was empty, even though it was not.

It seems to be the same scenario here, because you can hear the chants of the supporters, which means that the stadium is not empty.

Desire Oparanozie has a habit of scoring and performing well against Paris teams.

Super Falcons forward, Oparanozie Desire, was in terrific form last weekend as she scored a goal and provided two assists to help En Avant De Guingamp stage an epic comeback against PSG Ladies.

PSG Ladies were leading 3-0 in the first half but EAG Ladies fought back in the second half to end the game in a draw.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATcMsLKRyoM

Opanorazie scored in the 82nd minute after creating the chances that led to the first and second goals.

EAG is currently sixth while PSG is third in the female Division One table.

Desire Oparanozie's rocket goal.

Desire Oparanozie scored a brace in Guingamp's victory over Paris FC


Desire Oparanozie scored twice in EA Guingamp’s 3-1 victory over Paris FC last Saturday (February 17th, 2018). She bulldozed her way through the Paris defence to score Guingamp’s equaliser in the 27th minute and in the 89th minute Oparanozie scored from the centre circle to give Guingamp a 3-1 victory.

Here are highlight videos and pictures of the match.
