Same thing was said about PDP before the 2014 election!
A PDP chieftain once bragged that PDP will keep ruling in the next 50 years!
The arrogance clouded the eyes of GEJ who was pushed to do a second term despite commiting to do only a term.
The coalition that formed APC didn't win the election in 2014,it was the collection of Nigerians and social media won the election for APC!
In 2027,if majority of Nigerians want an end to this evil leadership,they should queue behind the opposition and vote massively for a better candidate!
No more sitting on the fence or waiting for parties to fight your battles!

😁😁
Nairaland is now a joke!
The impunity is so glaring!
Someone just reminded two b.ig.o.ted usernames of their refusal to report this news and instantly got banned but these same usernames are free to make terrible comments or post about a specify group that they love to hate without any punishment!
It's only a matter of time...this platform will become empty!
Nice one seun!
Keep up the 'good' work😁

Read up on collective consequences by muyiwa afolabi

There is collective consequences when you are silent and refuse to speak against the ills in the society!

Ladies and gentlemen, it is hard to fix a country where people remain quiet or defensive when corruption tends to serve them right or work in their favour.

Many people are perhaps crying and complaining today because they are no longer benefitting from corruption, and learning legitimate ways to earn is too hard for them to embrace.

There is collective consequence my friend even for nations.

A bad road can kill your son, hospital without drugs, good equipment and power supply can kill your daughter in labour, and unemployment can derail your graduate child and make him or her embrace crime or prostitution.

What the supposed fiance did was definitely a red flag and not expected from a man that should be in control of his emotions!
However,that decision to end the engagement should be done by the lady not her mother!
The mother should not be seen as controlling the decisions of her daughter!
If such decision continue unabated,there is a likelihood that the daughter will constantly keep seeking her mother's decision even when she eventually gets married and trying to raise a family!
If tomorrow,things don't go well as planned,she will blame the mother!
Let the daughter start learning how to take decisions that affect her life so that she can hold herself accountable!
That's maturity!

Surprisingly,since these carnage started in both plateau and Benue state,no single person has been prosecuted!
So why do we think this massacre will stop?

One thing is certain,Tinubu is well on course to beat Buhari to become the worst president in the history of Nigeria!

How is it possible that the pope who is far away from Nigeria had sent his condolences to the victims of the massacre in Benue state 24 hours before the president of Nigeria had even thought about making a remark about the Benue killings?
Incredible!

Was this not the same Bwala who claimed that the moment you join apc,your brain will not only be set aside but it will stop working?

There will soon be another 'marching order' by Tinubu with no end product!

Good talk


I was stunned when I heard the news cause I didn't watch the match ...

Just let him go in peace , he deserves another challenge elsewhere, he has done enough for us .. let the likes of Conor and Co shine ..

Exactly!
Connor Bradley needs that spotlight to shine!

To the fans who booed TAA....shame on U..it was disgraceful and classless..you do not boo your own player no matter how you feel!
So what happened to the slogan of YNWA?
Some fans were even comparing him to Steve mcmanaman and Micheal Owen,and I'm like...really?

For the record,Trent gave this soccer club 20 years and he loves this club to bits!
He has won the EPL twice,the UCL,world club cup,fa cup and carabao cup twice...comon this guy is a living legend!
He doesn't deserve such reception!
Some fans were alleging he was trying to wind down his contract just to secure a free transfer to Madrid just because arsene Wenger said so!
Where are they getting all these propaganda from?
And arsene Wenger never said such!

So what about Konate and Connor Bradley who still have a year left in their contract?
The problem lies with the club who had 2 years on Trent to sign a contract extension but they refused and allowed clubs like Madrid to come knocking!

Let's be honest,I feel gutted having a special player like Trent leaving and no matter what some folks will say,we will really miss him!
However,with two matches left to play,let's all remember what the players esp TAA had done and celebrate their success this season!

She knew ozos mother won't accept her.

Sounds plausible!😊

jaxxy:
Did Ozo leave her or she left him?

Which ever way you want to see it,atleast he is no longer with her!

jaxxy:
Na Ozo I pity

Haba but Ozo don leave her since nah!
That babe nor fit stay with one guy nah

DeeScan:
lol at all midfielders.. I mean technically they should but like you said it depends on the adaptability.. yes .. But the moment I read all midfielders, my thoughts went to Curtis Jones .. Imagine a Curtis Jones at the DM position 😁 .. That team is fvcked ..


Can't wait for next season , let's see what slot has in store for us .. maybe this time, we hit the quadruple ... Lol ..

Macca played in that position last season!
Dominik also did though sparingly!
As for Jones, anything is possible esp if you are a midfielder!
Jones has even played as a RB this season!
Before the season started,would you have predicted that Ryan graven would be our DM ahead of Endo and still excel in that position?
With the right training, anything is possible!

Quadruple ke😃
Let's not get ahead of ourselves!
We may likely need two set of teams for that to happen and not every player will be happy being on the bench!
Secondly,the fixture congestion will have a serious impact on the squad!
If I were Slot,I would just select the trophies I need to concentrate on and leave d rest!
EPL and UCL should be his focus!
Leave Carabao and FA cup for upcoming teams!

DeeScan:
He does drop to 6 position to receive the ball, you would see in that in most highlights of when he was at ajax ..
He played in both positions at ajax, I just did some research about that..
But yes, you're right.. we do need that natural holding defender but I'd gravy to develop in that position and become good ... What's to say if moving him centerly could alter his game and have him sit on the bench again ... I wouldnt like that...

All midfielders have the ability to play DM!
It's just a matter of their level of adaptability!
Towards the last years of Gerard @LFC,he played the DM role despite being an AM and later a CM!
Like I had said in my previous comment,Graven was desperate to start playing regularly and knew the only way to do so was anywhere including DM!
From what I have seen so far,graven can play anywhere in the midfield and do it will so much aplomb!
That's how good of a player he is!

DeeScan:
.. gravenberch looks so comfortable in that position.. are you sure we need a DM or a very creative AM that can function as a CM ..

Didn't gravenberch flopped because he was played up front at Munich . I watch some gravenberch highlights especially when he was still at ajax, he played at dm and was extremely comfortable .. I'd say get a backup DM , a new CM/Am, a rw , a good cf and other notable positions we need back ups or fresh legs and we're good to go ..

Graven never played DM at Ajax!
His positions were CM and AM!
He excelled more in those positions because of his quick accelerations and dribbling skills!
The reason why he never did well @ Bayern was due to crowded midfield and a trying too hard to perform!
Once he dropped to the bench,his form dipped and his self confidence left!
Klopp offered him an opportunity to rediscover his mojo at Liverpool!
Despite not getting to the levels he wanted,klopp encouraged him not to give up as this was his opportunity to prove he was ready!
When klopp left and Slot showed, Gravenbach decided no matter where or what position the new manager played him,he will give his best!
The rest is history!
Despite excelled in that position,we need a natural DM like Fabinho whose sole job is to break up play!

DeeScan:
Same as me ..

I legit thought slot would start chiesa for the rest of the matches not until I saw Salah in the line up... II was like you wan kill the old man, let chiesa get some gaddemm minutes ..

Whatever reason slot won't play chiesa is one hell of mystery .. I just hope he is not favoritism, cause that would be the start of downfall .. He then sees Salah makes no impact in games and yet still leaves him on .. If he continues like that, #slotout would soon be his reality ..


What do you think about tactics??

I'm just not convinced about the way we play yet ..

I just hope it's the player that has not adapted to the tactics like they ought too ..

Tactics is okay!
Just that the team lacks a DM!
I still believe Gravenbach is playing out of position!
Lastly,we may need a striker,winger,DM and defender

Don't blame her,blame the obviously SIMPlified and generous man!🥱🥱

DeeScan:
A midfield of Jones , Elliott and Endo doesn't tick ...

We need to let some them go ...

I'm not sure they'd ever make the 1st team ..

It was an experiment but we all know they haven't played together unlike the preferred midfield trio of McAllister, Gravenbach and Dominik!
Endo had a good game!
Elliot still needs more game time as it was obvious he had sat on the bench for a long time!
Jones really needs to step up as he has been given more than enough time to prove his worth!
His inconsistency is too obvious!

DeeScan:
Salah is not effective on that right anymore .. man I s just losing ball to opponents like it nothing. If we go into next season with Salah as main man and only man . Wahala go sup oo ..


I believe Salah should be in the A.m position connecting passes to the forwards of we gonna insist on using him .



Cause this game against Chelsea is just not it .

What were you expecting from a winger in his 30s?
That the speed will still be there ad infinitum?
The contract extension of Salah and VVD is for both experience and to enable the sporting director get a younger winger and defender that will be an understudy!
I don't see Salah starting up to 60-70% of games next season!
Besides,there was nothing to play for against Chelsea as the EPL has already been won!
I was thinking that a Chiesa would start ahead of Salah!

It's no longer news that TAA will definitely be leaving LFC as he has also confirmed it in skysportsnews today!

It's been an incredible 20 years in LFC and we should all cherish those times and only remember him for the great things he did wearing that number 66 and putting his best every match day!

TAA will forever be a Scouser and a Legend!

An awesome talent who came through the ranks @ LFC and gave us memorable moments!

Unfortunately,TAA has decided to try out something new in another club which we should all respect no matter our opinions!

On the flip side,this will now provide a vacuum for other players to shine!
Instead of attacking and insulting him,let's celebrate his achievement and move on!

Don't get it twisted,he will surely be missed but then,that's life!

9 shots on target and them say Nunez is the problem?
Hmmm....

Abeg nah wetin Nunez do slot?

😆

One yabaleft kolomental houseboy is having a serious reality check meltdown!

National assembly is a constitution of states representatives, so it's still up to the states...I personally heard on the news some governors saying they can't fund it,.we can't blame the presidency on that. NA members were voted in just as the president was. Nigerians should face the NA.

U don't get it!
It's a constitutional matter that involves altering or amending for state policing to have an effect without the influence of the federal!
A recent example is the case of the recent electricity act that was signed into law on 2023 that decentralized electricity and gave states the power to generate,transmit and distribute electricity!
The former law,everyone receive electricity through the national grid hence preventing state to have or supply their own people!
Same can also be done with policing as it's long overdue!
As for funding of state police,there are so many options available!
The state can make out a budget from either it's budget or use security votes to fund policing!
They can also make a certain levy where businesses and residents will pay a very small amount!
For me,I just want an effective and independent federal,state and community policing system!

dederocs:
State governors organise state police...the federal government has allowed states, but the states are saying they don't have money to pay.

Only the NA can do that!
Policing is currently under the control of the federal government!
State policing can only happen when the national assembly amend the constitution by removing the police from the exclusive to concurrent list which is the states!
For state policing to be effective,it must be properly funded and independent of any political influence!

Commentor:
Benue people should arm themselves.

Under Ortom,they setup a vigilante group in the affected LGAs and huge success was recorded...however,the then CP dismantled the vigilantes and the killings resumed days later!
This was one of the reasons why Ortom was attacking the then president Buhari!

NSA: insecurity under Tinubu has reduced by 90%
