Spiff20: So what you people are trying to say is that Messi isn't that good but FiFA loves him and favors him? I've never seen a more biased fan base than that of Ronaldo. Messi dribbles, scores goals for a living, gives more assists and clear passes. All I can see Ronaldo do is tap-ins, headers and penalties with so much vigor. Very selfish that you change him and he gets angry. How can you compare him to Messi and go this extent to be biased. France had 2 penalties in the final, Argentina lost their first game and played world class football. How did fifa rig it exactly? Ronaldo is an overrated player and that argument has finally been laid to rest. Now rest.
The difference is obviously clear like 7up between Messi and Ronaldo. Messi is a selfless player, unlike Ronaldo.
MrColdsweat: All football awards except the golden boot and golden glove are fraudulent because there's no clear criteria to judge.
Tell me, how do you compare a defender to a striker then say the striker is the best player? Modern Football awards like balon d'or, uefa player of the year, are mainly about goals but football is much more than goals. Infact, defending is tougher than scoring but that's a discussion for another day.
You made a valid point: Football is much more than goals. So scoring goals shouldn't be a criteria in determining the best player award.
I disagree. What was Maradona's greatest achievement? 1986 world cup win. And Messi has not not equalled that record, but surpassed it by winning more awards than Maradona did.
jimter44: APC as a political party is behaving as if it doesn't have a legal adviser. Election was conducted and Ayade came 3rd. If the first person that win the election resigns, the person that came 2nd supposed to be the flagbearer of the party. There's no need to conduct a fresh election.
It depends on what the amended Electoral Act says.
Quite painful. RIP Sunny Bobo. Sunny was my neighbour as we live in same area. Very young and respectful chap. The entire area has been in a mournful mood since the news broke.
Testimony1988: If PDP picks a Christian from the north as the running mate to Atiku, and APC eventually picks a Muslim from the north as the running mate to Tinubu, then I pity APC, he should never contemplate a Muslim Muslim ticket, he should follow the example of President Buhari.
Hear yourself. How can Atiku pick his running mate from the North?
RaptObserver: No amount of calming down will save him if he doesn't pick a Christian. But then, if he picks a Muslim he has a better chance of winning Northern votes massively because his campaign agents will simply tell them up North that the president and vice are Muslims so their interests are protected. But then, if Atiku wins that is the end of one Nigeria because all the parties won't gamble with fielding a Southern candidate again in a presidential election. So southerners who still want to remain in this country must support Tinubu regardless of the religion of his VP. This is based on political expediency not sentiments.
If Tinubu picks a Muslim as his VP, he will lose the election before it even starts. Because Northern Christians won't vote a Muslim/Muslim ticket. And we have a lot of indigenous Northen Christians in Borno, Bauchi, Kaduna, Sokoto, Kebbi, Plateau, Niger, Benue, Taraba, Adamawa. Not to talk of the predominantly Christian South.
That was then...not in today's Nigeria. In modern day Nigeria, no one can win any Presidential election on a Muslim-Muslim ticket. If Tinubu picks a Northern Muslim as his Vice, then he has made Atiku the President-in-waiting. The Northern Christian minorities won't vote him; and of course a major part of the South, which are Christains, will NEVER vote a Muslim/Muslim ticket.
Hunter2009: 2023: Exclusive! TB Joshua's Prophecy Concerning APC,PDP( VIDEO )
When God speaks, the wise listens. Arguably, the leading prophetic voice in Nigeria till date is late Prophet T.B. Joshua. Interestingly, though dead, his Prophetic messages still potent.
In a throwback video released online and obtained from BOLD MISSION page, the late prophet has already given sure prophetic warning concerning the current political situation in Nigeria. In the trending video, the clergy predicted there will be leadership tussle regarding who will be the Presidential candidate of the ruling party, APC
He also gave a Prophetic message for the Opposition party, PDP. Except....
This is a message for Nigeria. There will be leadership tussle on who will lead and who will be the Presidential candidate in the APC and this will affect APC as a Political Party. They should be vigilant. Many are not part of them but they are with them. I repeat again. They should be vigilant. Many are not part of them but they are with them. That is, many are with them in flesh but not with them in spirit. They should be vigilant. It’s a culture, When they hear this, work on it and pray about it. At last, the PDP will pay any price to unite. They will pay any price to unite. I don’t know the price that they will pay but this is what God showed me. That is about PDP.
This area is concerning me and concerning you and very sensitive. Listen to that: Many of the key leaders of political parties will go down. What will happen will result in the correction of corruption situation in Nigeria. Many corrupt leader will go down. The beginner is not the owner but the finisher!
Osek: Okowa is the worst thing that has ever happened to delta state, he hasn't done one single projects in Delta state... Just heard they are giving Delta state 700billion naira in a month and everywhere for warri still be like this, nawa ooo sometimes I wonder why EFCC is not even investigating okowa sef, this guy na big thief
Not 700bn a month. Read well...700bn in his 7yr tenure so far.
MrBachelor: Something similar almost happened to corper in a northerner state where I served. He urinated in a gutter close! O a mosque, and they accused him of descrating their holy ground. He was quickly descended upon and beaten by a mob. Knives were already drawn. Luckily he escaped them, jumped into a friend's waiting car and that one sped off.
Those marrafuckers pursued on bikes, wielding sticks, knives, and machetes. Already, those corpers don put call, so men don already prepare dey wait. We left the gate open, and as soon as the the car driven into the compound we opened fire on the marauders. They had no idea we had guns - very good guns .
No ask me why(or how) corpers go get guns. But we had them, and very willing to use them.
SIRTee15: I heard they hated him with passion. The guy showed them shege. Every Friday, Kaduna was filled with soldiers armed to the teeth. Do anyhow, see anyhow. They eventually claimed he's not a Muslim that his real name is Matthew.
