Africa's only permanent friends are those who permanently support our interests.

Africa will continue to priortize long-term partnerships that serve our continent's best interests. I shared this and more at the @afreximbank Annual Meetings, where I spoke at the session on Navigating Economic Transformation in a Polycrisis world: Strategies for Global Africa.

CrownedPhoenix:
While anything is possible as they say, I strongly doubt that story by Zenithnaija about the shooting.

Videos and photos trended on Twitter back then.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

can you imagine that ICTspecialist is going for a third strike? How can someone fail miserably 3 times before it is even 8am? More importantly, how can he actually believe that I will read whatever he writes? Isn't that funny?

ICTspecialist:
naptu2 is infamous and notorious for spreading fake news on this forum.
He should be banned

Troll attempt = fail. (second failure of the day and it's not yet 8am).

Try harder

Throwback.

A club in Gwarimpa, Abuja was attacked in early hours of this morning by gunmen and a DJ (DJ Bash) I know was killed.

There’s a police station not far from the place.

SP Josephine Adeh is the Police Public Relations Officer of the FCT.

So, apparently volcano peak hotel on 4th avenue Gwarinpa was robbed last night and the robbers shot and killed someone. Some of the guests were able to track one of the phones that was stolen, but it seems like the police that came are slow in following up.
Cc: @PoliceNG, @BenHundeyin kindly intervene.

lovewins:
Yes. Was off for sometime though.

Did they mention anything related to the falcons?

No, it was about the Eagles.

Please share as you normally do.

It was about the situation in the Super Eagles. This is a summary.

1) Colin Udoh said that it was clear before the end of the Nations Cup that Paseiro was not staying. He said that the amount of money Paseiro was demanding for a new contract was crazy and that nobody would pay that amount, so it was clear that Paseiro had made up his mind to leave. He said that the NFF should have started searching for a successor right from that time.

2) He said that it was clear that the only friendly window that we had in the FIFA calendar was in March, so if we wanted a new coach we should have gotten one before the friendlies. Once Finidi took charge of the friendlies, it became clear that he was our only choice, because it makes no sense to appoint a new coach and his first match would be a world cup qualifier (without enough time to practice with the boys).

3) He said that President Tinubu has put a lot of pressure on the football authorities because he made it very clear that he wasn't happy with the results of the qualifiers. That's what led to the meeting between the sports minister, the NFF and Finidi.

4) He said that what Finidi actually said at the meeting was that he can't beg any player to play for the Super Eagles. Colin spoke to Finidi and to other people that were at the meeting. That's what Finidi actually said (he didn't single out any player), but some media outlets reported that Finidi said that he can't beg Osimhen to play for the Eagles. That's what led to Osimhen's outburst because he felt that his commitment was being questioned. Colin tried to call Osimhen, but he wasn't picking his calls, he sent him messages, but he hadn't replied by the time they did the spaces.

5) He said that Finidi did not resign because a technical adviser is going to be appointed, rather he resigned because of the way that the matter was handled.

The NFF held a meeting in which they resolved to hire a technical adviser. That meeting was held before the meeting between the NFF, the sports minister and Finidi, yet the NFF did not tell Finidi that they wanted to hire a technical adviser. Finidi flew home after the meeting and there was still no word from the NFF. It was when he got home that China Acheru called him and asked for his comments on the decision to appoint a technical adviser. Finidi said that it was fake news, but China sent him the NFF communique as evidence.

Finidi waited for a few days, but there was still no word from the NFF, so he tendered his resignation.


6) One of the reasons that the NFF appointed Finidi as coach is because they don't have the money to appoint a foreign coach. However, with the pressure from President Tinubu, they are going to find the money one way or another. Some people are talking about a presidential task force to help the NFF raise money and ensure that the Eagles qualify for the World Cup.

Are you guys listening to Osasu & Colin's spaces?
