everything in life cannot be solved with force and gragra....God bless nigeria

Sorry but you may be hitting Oliseh harder than deserved bro. Believe me when I say I used to be an insider and privy to the heap of rot resident in the sports sector, NFF in particular.
Please does it make sense for:
-A coach to be owed when sports officials/administrators junket around in most times business class, receiving estacodes, salaries and allowances promptly?
-Tools and resources a coach and his team need to excel are denied them under whatever guise?
-training camps, schedules, friendlies are cancelled arbitrarily?
-camp allowances, bonuses, after-competition promises not to be paid or fulfilled? Ask 1985 U17 & 1994 Eagles.....
-players to be imposed on a coach?
Just to mention a few.
Amodu & Keshi (of blessed memory),Chukwu, Egwuavoen, Siasia, Amunike etc all chose to play it cool with the NFF and see where it landed them. Is it not painful that Amodu & Keshi are still being owed in their graves?
Haven't you noticed that force is the language authorities in naija respond to? Eg ASUU, Doctors, NUPENG strikes etc.
Oliseh understood this, and being more literate than most NFF Officials, spoke out and quite articulately against NFF tyrany and gross incompetence. Would you hav preferred he kept quiet like the others?
I still maintain that until his likes are more in number in this country, every prayer me, you and a host of others have made concerning this country would best be described as "faith without works"

babyfaceafrica:
Very good player and coach,just eccentric and immature..God. Bless you

I highlighted the above portion cos I beg to differ. If only we had more people like Oliseh who would stand up to the authorities that be whenever they are not getting things right, things would hav been better. In this country we believe so much in the "naija" way of doing things instead of the "right" way.
NFF thought they had hired another one of their usual "suffering and smiling" hungry employees, little did they know that OLISEH was and is an outspoken, forthright man with his own means!
Once more, I salute his courage and wish him more successes beyond his wildest dreams, amen.

ChiefSweetus:
Pray for your family to be very successful such that even if you are a millionaire people will consider you poor compared to the rest of your family.

Because it is only your family that really cares about your well-being and can put their money where their mouth is. Many of us have mere acquaintances and not Friends. And they will rather contribute 50k for your burial than give towards your treatment.

Ultimately we are all on our own.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

BabaAlabi:
Wrong...If the official price is 12k, when you pay online you should be given a reference number. Any official charging you 20k does so at hia own risk because it would be stated online that only 12k should be paid for the passport and any extra charge given to you should be reported. If the report is valid, the whistleblower should get his passport processed for free. It is going to work bro, don't be a pessimist.

Yes, as a "christian", its going to work. Question is when? Let me guess.......hmmmm...............after Jesus' second coming!

Amberon11:
Sincerely this is the best news that has come from this administration. Few days ago I told my brother that if this adminstration does nothing to curtail the corruption going on at Nigeria immigration services, then it isn't really fighting corruption, just witch hunting but hearing this has made smile.

Those immigration officers are truly useless and heartless. Imagine charging 32k for a N15,300 passport.

Thank God for this news.

According to D'banj, if you believe wot u read n how u reacted, then " u are on a long tin" ! Means u can believe anytin!

blaquebelle:
tf is this sort of image allowed?

Definitely not! Imagine the embarrassment! Am scrolling down in the office/bus & someone looks over my shoulder only to erroneously conclude I am a perv!

Anyone needing such images sure knows where to get them, not nairaland!

Mods, I move the motion that xxx1228 be banned for life!

You girls rock! BRAVO! Congratulations!

Then the guys are born throwey.ie sperm donors.Ok ooo u people should keep on glorifying immorality.

My dear, this is the world as it is today! Standards are falling everywhere you look, even JAMB has followed suit
Please may I shock you further - it will get worse! So keep yourself and those you care about and warn as many people as you can, after all I am 1000% sure your first name isn't JESUS.

Please did anyone read the "letter of petition"? So badly constructed with loads of typos!

Not late at all. Remain focused and motivated. Good thing about medicine is how your intellectual prowess and sublime practical skills stand you out. Age is given no consideration even @70.

Donprayer:
OP u are very correct. I have been using my car for the past 3½ years now, some persons will use their car for 3 months without changing the oil and oil filter, this is the major problem with Nigerians. Whether na new car, changing oil every month is very necessary for the durability of the car. This is my first time here, hit the like button for me

Op, pls is it palmoil u use when u do ur monthly car oil change? You must be very rich dude to have carried on with this wasteful venture for the past three and a half years. Are you using a Synthetic 5W-30 or a 20W-50? Cos if its d former, i wouldnt mind getting your contact so i can pour what you drain out of yours into mine, while saving subsequent drains for resale at a discounted price!
On a serious note, Please look up frequency of car oil change from your vehicle manual. If you don't have a hardcopy, download it from the internet. There must be a mechanical balance between time of last service and mileage driven afterwards.

I quite admire his courage. He is better than me and some other people who only talk and can't walk the talk.

I admire the fact that Joe isn't a political prostitute, ever ready to take a bullet on behalf of his party & convictions. My only problem with him is that given the prevalent political and economic quagmire, HE IS TOTALLY BLIND, in comparison with the likes of Stevie Wonder & Cobhams Asuquo who though referred to as "blind" musicians, can see with other senses.

Internet rumor bad for your health and mental well being.

Irresponsible is people like you peddling hate and rumors all over the internet.

Please bro, try and maintain some civility in your language. We don't need any covert personal attacks. We are entitled to maintaining our different opinions without exchanging fists or becoming online enemies.

Back to the subject matter, do you know the details of the agreement? An agreement where only levels 7 and below got 100%, while levels 8 & above received fractions of the whole. While I am almost certain that the governor, his aides, the state legislature and other state political office holders are not being owed a penny, yet they have the moral depravity and lack of human conscience to pay civil servants promptly and fully!
What a jungle! Some animals are indeed more equal than others!
I am deeply pained when injustice is glorified. Except you are a Rauf watchdog, or a beneficiary from the rot in Osun state, I may want to call to question the state of your conscience - alive? partly alive? comatose? dead? - pray tell bro.

idealogical:
You mean the government shouldn't help or provide good education to Nigerians unless they can pay them?

No sense, just hatred, blind and illogical criticism.

No pun intended bro, just that the saying "don't bite more than you can chew" seems apt here. You appear to be the only one who doesn't know how irresponsible a governor Rauf is. He governs a state most notorious for owing backlog of salary arrears. Please extend your research further and you will find that Osun state has the highest record of exiting doctors in recent times!

Can he pay them when they start working in the state?

The query goes to HEFAMA. They are virile when it has to do with private establishments but suddenly appear emasculated when it concerns public health centres. Double standards everywhere! Tot wots good for the goose is also good for the gander! What a pandemic uploading, presently @ 80%

One gaffe too many! What a jungle sory country!

Op, I don't think Nikkai and Church wedding go together. Guess u meant Nikkai and white wedding.

Oh! Dawn just arrived. Just questioning touts now for a reckless statement they made months ago! How effective and responsive!

Way to go girl! Patriotism my left little toe!

Kbkfoundation Dalu rienne! You have done well. What is N10,000 to a worthy lioness?
The part I really don't like though is her having to contact you.
Please go to her college dean/provost and make the presentation! Anybody who thinks your donation is paltry should donate theirs.
Big ups kbk!

What are Nigerians waiting for?

Stylz69:
Back in the days I could do it alone. Used to drive a Volkswagen kombi bus. Here was the process:
- put on ignition
- open drivers door and push and get just a little momentum... helps if the road in sloping downwards but a level road was okay.
- jump in, throw gear lever into second gear and let go of the clutch.
- always worked for me.

You just relish suffering!

Our DSS seems to have an uncanny ability when it comes to suspecting and moving against 'harmless' citizens. But When they see real rabble- rousers they either take to their heels or simply look the other way.
A fellow NL above opined DSS as acronym for Daura Secret Service and I can't agree less.

It unfair for the woman not to have disclosed her medical condition to her hubby before going to the altar. I guess a divorce is in order.

blackbeau1:
little bro, it's not compulsory to quote somebody's post. Different people have different opinions, you know

My dear, time, they say broadens our perspective. I just hope, for your sake & of those you love and hold dear, that a medical condition your "national hospital" cannot deal with, befalls you or them. Then, you just might get the drift of doctors on this thread.
By the way, I couldn't help but notice the 'little sis' tag didn't go down well wit you. Am cool with the little bro though cos I am not what I am referred to as, rather I am whom I present myself to be!

blackbeau1:
Most of them just want the status of practicing outside the country

Little sis, it is not compulsory to contribute to a matter. It would have been better if you just quietly read through people's posts on this thread

mcquin:
Too bad. While I condemn the government already, many of us are so unwilling to make sacrifices. Other persons made sacrifices to better their country.
The Nigerian doctor lives almost above average and it's the only career professional in Nigeria that enjoys good privileges as job-guarantee and good pay.
We must all learn to live our country. I want to leave Nigeria only to improve myself, come back and give back to Nigeria as Awolowo and Azikiwe did. God bless Nigeria.

Sorry dude, I am almost certain that you don't hav your facts concerning the welfare of doctors in this country. How can a doctor be living above average when he is being owed salary arrears?
You might want to argue that a lot of people are being owed too, but when you factor in the fact that doctors work for longer hours in the name of emergencies, call duties, leaving them with little or no time to pursue other money making ventures, you may be inclined to agree with me that it is CRIMINAL to owe a doctor!
There are many points I would hav raised but let me leave others who truly understand the plight of the Nigerian doctor, beyond the facade of an compulsory ethical smile, to allude to more challenges they face.

ScienceWatch:
Mmmmm !! It is very strange because the OP's moniker shows he is a female, lol, roll on the floor kind of laughter. Haaaaaa hic ha hic hic h h h!!!

Lol, drive into a pothole kind of laughter. Ha hic hic.

There is a possibility that op & the writer may be two different people! Pls check.

ScienceWatch:
Dont you think it strange that the op who is supposed to be a woman, took so much time to describe the girl in the mini skirt that had the best legs ever seen in Nigeria.

The article is a poorly written PROPAGANDA ploy and I believe the Fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye is the author considering the extra long epistle, extreme exaggeration and callous refusal to accept reality and respond accordinly.

THE ARTICLE IS ANOTHER FAILED ATTEMP AT DESTROYING THE DIGNITY OF THE MIGHTY SCOAN CHURCH NIGERIA.

Sorry, op could not hav been a woman since he could not stand on the same queue with his mum, but with his driver who stood in line behind him.

I really don't know much about SCOAN but I read the whole piece & I must admit, THE WRITER writes WELL in terms of tenses, grammatical construct, phrases etc. I am impressed with your writing dude.
