Laughing at your ignorance

Can we compare an ATIKU v BUHARI here? Let's see who is wallowing in Ignorance

Anigreat:





All them can beat Buhari hands down

But most preferable is DONALD DUKE.

To be practical, Donald Duke is a good candidate but he can't sell in The North where we have large bloc of vote that's why an Atiku candidate is the best because he is known in every corners of Nigeria

jumper524:
even if its clear atilu is winning, trust me I'll never vote such man..

You are having a bandwagon effect so you will vote him when Hurricane Atiku sweep you up.

madridguy:
Make I laugh weekend laugh

You can continue to laugh but ask yourself again, Do I want to be on 30k for the next four years again or should I vote in Atiku the man with pragmatic and business approach to governance that can bring back foreign investors and revive our dying economy where companies can employ you and you will be earning more than 150k a month

jumper524:
despite buharis f-ups trust me the only candidate I can vote there ahead of buhari is Donald duke..

Don't waste your vote. Vote Atiku Abubakar for a new dawn

Atiku Abubakar the only candidate with a Presidential clout that will send buhari back to Daura

The only man that can send Bihari home is The Waziri Atiku Abubakar. The man that will repair the damage Caused by Buhari.


Lets vote for Atiku for a new Nigeria

ayourbamie:
Lagos no dey write jamb? Despite the high population! Abi all of us in Lagos are working class?

Someone educate me on this stat!

The natives of Lagos were only taken into cognizance

BluntBoy:


When did I say that Buhari was the busiest president on earth? It is your opinion if you think Buhari does trifle things. The fact remains that his actions affect even your grandparents. He is the president and that is what matters.

I refuse to agree that Trump is busier than Buhari unless you can make evidences other than mere speculation.

If you believe Buhari is busier than Trump then I don't think I can join you in this back and forth because you are still far from getting an Atlas to know the size and population of US and other important decisions Trump has to make for the US and the World in general

I am tired of seeing dead bodies...the food I ate since Sunday had not been able to digest well,I keep on feeling nauseous

I seriously need help

You love seeking for attention, who cares about the digest in your belly? can't you grow up and face the so called husband that you've been inundating our ears with?

BluntBoy:


And I gave a straightforward answer. The exact same thing a manager or a principal (overseer) does, only intensified because a president carries the burden of the whole country on his shoulders. I am sure the whole of his time would be taken listening to security chiefs and meeting stakeholders after stakeholders in his attempt to put an end to the mindless killings in some parts of Nigeria as soon as possible.

You are now trying to tell us that because of those trifle things bihari do then he is the busiest President on earth

BluntBoy:


Since when exactly? Any screenshot of this in 2015 or even during the periods when Boko Haram were seriously killing people.

He wasn't on Twitter then but since he joined he has not stopped to use it as a medium to pass his message across.


Hope you know that he also has the legal right to aspire for any office so I don't know where your sentiments stems from

BluntBoy:


The question is: has it always been like this with Atiku? Was he this reactive and "sensitive" in 2015?

We all know he is doing this for the votes and it is pathetic to see how easily some of you are falling for it.

He has always shown concern so I don't know why you guys are reading meaning into it

emmabest2000:
This man don’t have presidential qualities



Rip to the dead

Then you don't know what Presidential qualities mean

SalamRushdie:
Again Atiku has reacted before Buhari

Atiku is a better statesman than Bihari.


He knows the importance of Every Life matters

People died in serious fire and you are promoting a betting site. May a thousand death come upon you

I tend to wonder how the whites believe that Africa teams has only power to offer that their tactical awareness should be wished away

James Yeku






I love listening to white men, especially old white men, talk about black athletes during major global sporting events. I have been following the kind of language white pundits use during FIFA World Cups and Olympic Games for years, so I am well aware to their fascination with and ridicule of the black body.

I was hardly surprised that someone like British businessman and reality TV star Alan Sugar came up with a bitter and racist tweet about the Senegalese team at the World Cup in Russia.
Sugar's colonial mindset saw the Senegalese team as people selling sunglasses on beaches, not as world-class players who deserve praise for their success.

Sugar's statement demonstrates the implicit prejudice that often surfaces in Western media discussions about African players. That Sugar and many of his supporters initially did not see the racism in his tweet and tried to play it down as a "joke" confirms the latent bigotry that haunts football and how media covers it.

But beyond Sugar's raw racism, there are all kinds of "veiled" racist discourses that dominate the language white commentators use during football matches.

My favourite is their widely normalised assumption that African teams are always the "physical" and never the "tactical" side. When Senegal faced Poland in their first World Cup appearance since 2002 earlier this month, the same assumption was repeated.

After Senegal defeated its Eastern European opponent 2-1, NBC Sport claimed in an online article that Poland had succumbed to Senegal's "pace and physicality". Former West Ham Coach Slaven Bilic, now pundit for British ITV, also commented on Senegal's "pace and power".
Of course, pundits do not have a monopoly on assuming a black or African team is going to be the "physical side". Ahead of his team's June 24 match against Senegal, Japan's coach Akira Nishino said "[Against Senegal] rather than physicality, we have to use our brain to come up with some tactics and strategies."
These suggestions tying Senegal's success at the World Cup to the team's "raw energy" brush aside the excellent and tactical play Aliou Cisse, the only black coach in Russia 2018, beautifully masterminded for his team.

Another example of the same brand of covert racism is one of BBC's commentators excitedly
describing Nigerian player Ahmed Musa as a "gazelle" after one of his goals. He undoubtedly wanted to emphasise Musa's pace with this comparison, but drawing parallels between black people/Africans and animals has a very long and racist history and it has to stop.

The aforementioned examples are not isolated cases. Narratives about the "physicality" of African players are perpetuated and circulated tournament after tournament, match after match - so much that New York-based writer and producer Rose Eveleth came up with a World Cup Bad Announcer Bingo in the run-up to the Russia 2018.


The "bingo card" illustrates perfectly well the subtle discursive violence tightly linked to colonial-era racism that often dominates football commentaries. A similar "bingo card" could also be made with words and expressions used to describe white football teams; they are always "tactical", "strategic", "disciplined", "creative", etc.

Recall the commentary surrounding Iceland's unexpected draw against Argentina. At that instance - unlike Senegal vs Poland - the underdog's success was not explained away by Icelandic players "physicality" or "energy". Of course, a "white team" can also be described as "physical" at times, but only when it has many black players (think of the French national team at the 2014 and 2018 World Cups).

Some may say that the context in which "a physical African side" is mooted may be flattering. But this language perennially marks a black team as having no other significant skills, practicing strategies or creativity. It doesn't matter whether Paul Pogba produces moments of tactical brilliance as he plays for the French national team or Manchester United. His performance will always be deemed one of pace and power , because - at least in the eyes of football commentators - Pogba is black first, then a successful football player second.
Senegal may have outplayed Poland, yet according to pundits, it was a controversial win that came mostly on the heels of the "pace and power" of the West African players, not because their tactics and gameplay were better than the Polish team's.
The obvious reality is that football pitches or Olympic stadiums are not only venues for sports competition, but also a space where power relations play out, with white commentators serving mostly as biased arbiters.

For instance, athletes from Kenya, Ethiopia, and other East African countries are naturally seen as unmatched champions of long-distance running at the Olympics or any other global games. Their success, however, is never tied to their tactics or training traditions - which, ostensibly, constitute the white man's exclusive domain. Instead, their victories are almost always explained by a romanticised notion of "physical endurance".

The problem with this idea of physicality is that it is a mythology of racialism that dispossesses the African or black sportsperson of creativity and strategic thinking in the eyes of Western audiences. In a Barthesian sense, it is a system of speech that promotes racial bias. By not challenging and questioning this language, its hegemony is consolidated and normalised.

There is no denying the fact that every sport requires a lot of energy and physical stamina, and both black/African athletes and their white counterparts exert much energy to win games. But to reduce only the black athlete to their physicality in media discourse is simply racist.
African and black sportsmen are more than their bodies. The coverage of black bodies and the discourses around them require an urgent rewriting.

izzou:


I don't know what Atiku's mission is, but reviving this country is far from it

May the Almighty God give me the grace to trust this guy.

I had such notions before until I took my time to study the man and I found out that Atiku is the best man for the job. we need a smart business man to pilot the affairs of this country

I don't always have issues with the Fools that marry their ancestors but my grouse is always with the idiots who urges him on.


Everyone can't be mad same time

SalamRushdie:
Our churches are the problem I tell you ..they are too greedy , to selfcented and to weak ..
The day Christians started this nonsense one man one wife thing is where they signed their eventual extinction... Church doctrine must henceforth allow any Christian man that wants to marry up to 5 wives to do so if he is capable and wishes so ... We must not cede the earth to dark religions under the guise of being civilised

I disagree with you on this. We need to invest more on education and science so that we can be ahead of them and use enlightenment to turn the tables.

This is some nice info right there thanks @Op you did a good job. I can't believe my eyes

reply my message we need talk

GavelSlam:

Na your face be that for your profile?
Na SARS do your face like that?

It's better than yours that depend on 30k for survival

GavelSlam:


My post is a reference.

You cannot give someone a name without evidence.

I have evidence of Jonathan's link to Fulani Herdsmen which I have provided.

If you have contratry evidence provide it.

Shut up. An old man still talking like a toddler.


Firefire please give this man evidence of buhari support for terrorist group

GavelSlam:
Was this a dream?

Stop trolling with this picture. You are a BMC supervisor so I will advise you to think something meaningful with that 35k salary

tomakint:


Join the club bro, we still got lots of "free jackets" as for those zombies, ignore them for good.

I'm taking my time to join the Atiku bandwagon because I don't want a repeat of Buhari.


Buhari remains a disgrace

GavelSlam:


Buhari is not a terrorist.

Nobody but revisionists such as yourself would consider him to be.

Atiku on the other hand has been indicted by a US SENATE Committee.

His case is so bad they cite him as an example of corrupt African leaders.

A thief would never be allowed to rule Nigeria.

Shut up. Buhari is a terrorist and a supporter of Murderers so he is one

GavelSlam:


Of course, you would support a thief.

Is it surprising?

But you support Buhari that barbs his head with 86million NAIA.


Shame on you BMC Supervisor. I will expose you here

GavelSlam:

Angry man , probably hungry as well.

Angry = Yes

Hungry = No

Such fate will befall you and your loved ones before year end. Say Amen
