o ti set

I see Calvin Bassey has borrowed some sense and taken his father's surname. I don't understand why anyone would drop their father's name in favor of his mother's. This has a bitter disgruntled woman written all over it.

Mentally, I think Nigeria has upper hand in this duel. The team has gained confidence after the Cameroon match. I see us winning but the Angolans will come out with every fight left in them.

May the eagles soar!

komekn:
Kanu, Okocha, Yobo, KC, Ndidi, Awoniyi, Etebo, all came from Peckham Rye in London, for your mind.

Indeed the bang average Omeruo was at Middlesbrough playing 33 games over two anonymous seasons in the Championship.

I will be a crazy man to get into conversation with you. It will be a waste of my time and energy. You have no shame, no integrity. ..a walking confusion and contraction. For my mental health, I will pass!

Have a nice day nigga

charlesemeka85:
see wetin exposed man dey talk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Your shame dey shame me, receive sense

So players that couldn’t cut it at epl clubs and dropped to lower leagues na for Madagascar dem born dem Abi?

A player like iheanacho that fought his way frm city’s youth team to their 1st team na for Plymouth dem born am Abi?


U need to change ur dealer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What are you talking about ? I am not responsible for your comprehension deficiencies. Have a good evening, sir !

Mujtahida:
Don't worry. He will soon Afcon that he played every match

Playing every match is not achievement. Next!

Mujtahida:
You have headache. No be Iwobi cause am. Iwobi was not in our match against GB and our play was everywhere like the tattered cloth of a poor old woman. Iwobi knits the team together with you his quick, short passes. He fits just fine in this formation

....the team in totality has no single creative midfielders except Nacho and Lookman who are both attackers.

Again, this Super Eagles has no attacking midfielder....should I repeat it 20 times ?

charlesemeka85:
u too talk rubbish

Enter house go sleep abeg. So dem do am favor to remain in the epl because he was raised in the Uk? Others playing in English lower leagues na for India dem born dem Abi?

I swear nothing go mk me believe say u no dey smoke igbo 🤣🤣🤣🤣

99% of the players in all levels of English leagues are either English born or European born.

Oga, you are a local level thinker with no exposure. Noo nwayo

charlesemeka85:
see nonsense wey person wey dey form say em dey reasonable dey post

U re disgusting 🤮 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol...nwokem, this conversation has left your level of capacity. Stay on the sidelines for now

bisqit:
Sunday mba is another overrated player. After his heroics in 2013, where is he today? Nowhere to be found. Even archaeologists are still looking for him

He is not overrated. By the time he left the Nigerian league he was in his 30s. Just because you are a Nigerian doesn't mean you should not have common sense. Its annoying arguing with grown men who cant think

Emmy450:
. 🤣🤣, He even mentioned Sunday MBA, (although he gave us a trophy), but common, comparing him with iwobi is just nonsensical.

I am trying not to make mockery of you Nigerians here but try and help me out. What has Iwobi ever achieved as a player.

Mba has won the Nigerian Premier league with Warri Wolves and the almighty nations cup where he was instrumental to our victory. Foot ball-wise, Mba is a proper ball playing attacking midfielder in the mold of Kevin Debryan. You dont even know anything about the player and his exploits in the Nigerian league.

Some of you people are mostly Nigerian based local football followers without any exposure. Biko chill. Because Iwobi plays in the premiership where he is the a below average player. Mba was at the very top of the Nigerian league scaring players with Etebor, Azubuike Egwuekwe and Aniekwe the highest goal scorer

charlesemeka85:
he is right, na also because of Okocha mk iwobi to still play in the epl for over 7 seasons now 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜

Iwobi is an English boy. He is their product and that comes with real benefits. Iwobi wouldn't need a work permit to get a club in England.

We have said this so many times.

Amedino99:
his shooting style never changes. If all the players put on a sack on their head and they shoot, you can always identify iwobi and I think it's too late for him to change.

My biggest headache with Iwobi is that I dont know where he belongs on the pitch. He simply loves the attacking midfield role because of the fame that comes with it.

Marjoribanks:
Sunday Mba played just two good games for Nigeria. Please rest this talk!
That was how you guys forced Keshi to take that Gabriel... to the World Cup. Once Onazi got injured our midfield just collapsed. Abeg!

Sunday Mba was very influential to us lifting the AFCON. Dont disrespect him because he was home based. He was a beautiful attacking midfielder. Iwobi is not half the player he was. Mba was also in his late twenties during the AFCON without European football experience.

Emmy450:
alright,. Give us the list of Nigerian midfielders better than Alex iwobi currently,

Make I no hear kelechi Nwanbali from your mouth oh

You are telling me you can't find another Sunday Mba in the Nigerian league



Is this a joke. What's the job of a coach ?

zoboizee:
Iwob,i given the chance, either inside the box or outside the box, has a weak shot or poor technique at shooting accurately at goal. This is what i dislike most about him. Dude always always wobble at shooting with aplomb. Just doesn't have it like okocha when it comes to shooting at goal.

And this is my biggest problem with Iwobi. Very short on confidence, creativity and finishing. As soon as the ball gets to him he instantly forgets he is an attacking midfielder....no vision, no tricks and no confidence. The lack of confidence comes from the fact he knows he is not capable of playing that role.

charlesemeka85:
Nwakali is from the same state with me which is imo

I am not and will never be a sentimental person. I say things the way they re without sugarcoating

E get time wey I carry aribo matter for head and among the first that argued that he deserves a chance in the super eagles and when he started fumbling baba I comot mind where em Dey

Even then many here called me papa aribo cus as I tk Dey push for the guy invite u go think say na my nephew 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Iwobi is from Onicha, I am from Umuoji. Assuming you know Onicha and Idenmili then you will know we are not just from same state but also similar in our basic culture. So ,leave sentiments aside. Iwobi cant play midfield

charlesemeka85:
from the very first day him join this thread na so em carry iwobi matter for head


Even if iwobi divide his wealth and gift him half he will never say anything positive about the guy


I think there is more to this his hate on Alex. Him never clear us wetin sup

Maybe na him suppose marry iwobi mama but e be like she dumped his thuggery ass n married iwobi’s dad instead 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Point of correction. I was here way before you and most people here. Nri Priest was the handle

maidaboi:
Iwobi is tormenting this one like the way Nwakali is tormenting Emeka 😂😂😂

Who is "this one" ? Abi you no get home training ni ?

[quote author=Mujtahida post=128237132][/quote]Its shocking to hear you say Iwobi is good enough for SE. How could you say this knowing fully well our team is suffering because of the incompetence of the midfielders like Iwobi and Aribo.

Had Charles ever made a sensible post. You want a goofy 45yrs old man to give you a reply. Biko rest.

Mujtahida:
I'm not good with predictions and using my guts to tell the outcome of a match.

But I can tell if SE will win a match within the context of our play. As in from the way we play, I can tell if we will win or not. Like from the blast of the whistle and the way we hustled every ball in the match against Cameroun I knew we'd win. Even when Semi's goal was canceled, I told the guy I was watching the match with, that naija will still score.

And my logic is simple: if we play well, we win. Of course sometimes we play well and lose and sometimes we play badly and win but generally the best play wins

The match is 50-50 for me. The Angolans are not push over. Expect something similar to the Equatorial Guinea match. Like the Congolese but more rivalry.

chrisooblog:
The solution to our midfield problems is in the horizon with the likes of Ebenezer, Eletu, Fisayo Bashiru and maybe a rejuvenated Nwakali still to come.

We need three proper attacking midfielder and Aribo needs to go. Iwobi should be on the bench. Where is Akinwunmi Amoo, the midfield wizard? Nwakali must be given a chance

Icon4s:
I am not a fan of Mourinho and all along I have been indifferent about JP until this AFCON.
If you really objectively watch those games we drew against Lesotho and Zimbabwe, not that the boys didn't play just that they couldn't easily unlock the defence of those teams. What the team lacked was creativity and they still lack it. However, in this AFCON they have been able to make up for it with power, long balls and speed, which are mostly what you need to play against African oppositions. This style of play will take you no where in a major tournament like the world cup. Going forward we still need to do something about that our midfield.

But Iwobi fan boys said he is having a fantastic game and owned the midfield against Cameroon....laugh wan tear my blokos. Pesin wey we no know whether na defender him be or midfield. Onyeka is playing defensive midfield and attacking while Iwobi hides in the field walking around like an unburied corpse. What an incompetent midfielder! Cant hold the ball for more than 5 seconds...pathetic. Someone even said he is one of our best players in the tournament.

We need a proper midfield for goodness sake

humility33:
Why is it that you love violence so much?

No, sir. I am just a realist.

Joebie:
Nigeria will beat Angola

It's not as if Nigeria does not have what it takes to beat them. But you will be tough....very tough.

The Nigeria vs Angola game better be bloody. I want to see heads collision, concussion, blood and sweat on that theater. I want a pure revenge for Barrister Samuel Okwaraji of the blessed memory.

This match will probably be the toughest game these set of SE would ever play. The Angolans have a great history of war, bravery and they are fearless. These are the real Bantus of Central Africa, cousins to the Congolese, Equatorial Guinea. As you can see ,they are fighters. The SE will see demons on that field and they better be ready. The Angolans are much tougher that the Congolese.

If I was the coach, I will bench Iwobi because this game will be too physical for the sissy boy.

Ndidi, Osimhen, Onyeka , Ekong ,Omerua are suited for the physicality of this match.

Let the Eagles soar!!

Kushites:
I’ve been researching this brewery built by Obi in Anambra state and haven’t been able to find much information about it.

Can forumers please shed more light on this facility.

Is it still functional?

What’s the name of the brewery?

Has it got a board of directors?

How is it run?

Who banks the profits from the brewery?

Does Peter Obi visit the brewery?

Just to check up on it and see if it’s still running okay.

Any info on this?

Much appreciated!

What hatred can't do doesn't exist. Mr researcher, you are being fooled. Peter Obi doesn't own any refinery.

rdokoye:
Soludo is a VERY intelligent man. He understand these issues. People just need to understand, that building roads and streets, isn't the ONLY task of a governor. He has to multitask, work on water, power, industrial and a litany of other things. While building roads and sensitising the population.

I know for a fact that Obiano didn't leave much funds for Soludo to kickstart these projects but he is a bit slow. He is doing all the right things but he is very slow. I cant wait to start seeing Onicha and Awka wearing a new look. I want a proper data collection system. We need to know who lives in Anambra, what they do and how much they pay in taxes.

Recently, the education committee set up by Soludo just found out 38% of the students in our public schools are not from Anambra....That's is a shocking revelation

OreMI22:
Bros, you hit the nail on its head! The big issue is that there is no money! Most of those criticizing Soludo for why he has not built heaven and earth DO NOT and WILL NOT pay any tax! That was precisely the reason the previous governors neglected these cities to rot. Since the average trader passionately hates to pay any tax for the development of the society. Thus, previous governors preferred to use thugs and part-time criminals to extract taxes. Which 99% of such taxes end up in the pockets of the criminals themselves. So it was great that Soludo first stopped using thugs to collect taxes and then digitized the payments through POS directly into the government coffers. I hope that the modernization of the Anambra state tax payment system continues to be improved so that the government can be supported by the few business organizations that view their payment of taxes as a serious civic obligation.

Many armchair critics whose only job is to pontificate online about the skyscrapers or flyovers they need here and there, and how they want all the gutters in the state to be underground or covered always crack me up. Just look at sections of Onitsha - Owerri road where the company CCC built covered gutters! The gutters are now filled with sand and refuse, however unfortunately they cannot be easily desilted because they were permanently covered with concrete! Again, we all like to blindly import anything we see abroad, but nobody asks if our people are as developed as people in such societies that do not dump refuse in their gutters. The reason why some ideas imported from abroad will fail in Nigeria is that we are not at their level of development yet and our people need proper orientation about how to take care of their environment.

Many of those trying to distract Soludo through online smear campaigns also smeared Obiano for building what they called an "unviable poultry farm" as an airport. They posted the images of Atlanta or Heathrow airports as what they "expected" Obiano who was ruling a non-oil producing Anambra state to build! Today such people are now pretending to be praising Obiano for his foresight in building a modern airport, flyovers, and hotels! Wonders shall never end!!!

Now their current antic is to dismiss Soludo's solid efforts to rebuild the collapsed and neglected cities of Anambra. Anyone who goes to Fegge, Okpoko, Awka, and many others will appreciate that Soludo is trying his best to upgrade some of the worst slum settlements in the state while managing the meager resources. It is NOT easy for a state like Anambra to build all these roads at once while also building hospitals e.g. in Okpoko while paying workers' salaries etc. The only way to achieve them is through expanding the tax base and an increase in taxes. Yet, Soludo keeps excluding the poor and vulnerable from taxes! So he should be applauded for taking the bull by the horns to attempt to upgrade our inner cities and make them liveable places again. Some of these armchair critics NEVER consider that there isn't enough money to award a single road in Awka or Onitsha to an international construction company while there are just too many other roads all over the state that are in appalling conditions.

Finally, Soludo should also continue to sanitize our cities through the removal of shanties used in irregular street trading all over our cities. Also to find new locations for small neighborhood markets where private investors can be engaged to build approved plazas or open market stalls for the street traders to be relocated. I see a new Anambra being born. it isn't easy, but you can now clearly see the man's developmental strategy.

You summed it up.

Bottom line is we dont want to pay taxes yet we cry about lack of development. The mentality of the average Onicha trader is very backward. Even the industrialists are owing Anambra state billions in taxes.

For Anambra to develop where we could see tarred roads without sand dunes, underground drainages, refuse free streets, green vegetation everywhere and clean air we must educate our people and they must respect their environment and join in keeping it clean , civil and organized.

We are not ready and I dont think Soludo understand these issues I outlined.

Omo... Cape Verde get fine girls o. See spec na

Make una no blame me o...the first half was so drab that the only thing noticeable were those beauties on the stand cheering their men team.

The first half was highly entertaining....just say you weren't paying attention. Mauritania is playing some beautiful football. I didn't even know they are this good....they play like the Brazilians

Goke7:
Mauritania no wan gree o

Those guys are playing the best football in this tournament

This Mauritanian team is f..ucking good...I am impressed. Very skillful

charlesemeka85:
Aside the Morocco midfield of Amrabat and Ounahi I no see any midfield better than ours in this competition

Because you have Onyeka
