The only natural midfielder on this list is Etebo, and he is not even an "attacking" midfielder, he functions better in a double pivot, where he is a holding midfielder-basically he was a perfect replacement for Onazi, who replaced Sunday Oliseh. (the rest are all forwards)... and that's Okocha"s point.

A classic example of a natural attacking midfielder is Bruno Fernandes of Portugal/Man U, Kevin De Bruyne of Belgium/man City or Mesut Ozil of Germany, these are midfielders who are attacking play makers and function best when given a creative free role... you get the point right?

How about showing us how you got the visas? Would go a long Way.
Bro, there is an embassy that states everything you need to present;
http://www.namibiahc.com.ng/visaandconsular.htm

Please note that a visa to Namibia does not guarantee entry, if you do not present your bta and invitation/trip purpose at the p.o.e you will be sent back faster than you can say "Windhoek".

Goodman247:
what makes Namibia unique and your first choice
Firstly I am a fan of peace and stability, Namibia is literally one of the most peaceful countries in Africa, the place has very chill people and a stable government.

Secondly I am a big fan of nature and outlandish scenery of
Which Namibia has tons of things to offer.

Namibia has one of the most developed transportation infrastructures in Africa which makes transportation fluid. The low population is also a big plus for me because rowdy areas are not common.

Although the weather in Namibia is very hot being a desert zone, but that southern African geography/proximity about Namibia is what gets to me most often regardless of the climate.

In terms of jobs, well everything revolves around Windhoek which makes things rather close circuited, however if you are into Forestry, conservation sciences, sustainability, renewable resources and the likes there's always something for you in Namibia.

As far as the currency goes, its basically on par with the South African rand, so the economy is rather similar to SA if you are not looking at GDP.

Lastly I just love the people, they are literally chill despite the weather.

In the end the love for particular places depends on the individual... I am more of an adventurer which is why Namibia rings my bells.

It is not visa on arrival.

Namibia is an amazing African country btw... if I was to immigrate to any African country, Namibia is number one on my list.

TravelRe: What Skills Should A Nigerian Acquire Before Traveling To Europe Or America by optimusprime2(m):
ChybuzzDD:
That's not the answer the OP needs.
It's your type that usually travels with "common sense" as their only skill and then engage in crimes abroad, thinking they're smart, and soiling the country's image.
What's the "smartness" in robbing and scamming/duping people?
If you don't have any skills, please, do not dream of travelling, because the Nigeria has already had enough bad image from idiots like you.

Thank God many more people are now recognizing that skill acquisition is a necessity for travelling.
Bro my question for you is simple, "what is common sense?"
Now after answering that question, answer this; can common sense guide you in skill acquisition?

At the end of the day, after everyone has advised the op to do this and that, what if he is not able to compete with that skill due to certain individual reasons unique to the op?

Just imagine people telling him to learn IT skills... what if he goes to Norway for instance and is required to take a mandatory certification exam in order for him to function... that becomes a tall order if he didn't get the supporting education for that skill. (Let's even leave the language part out of it-assuming the op is good with languages)

My point exactly, acquire a skill you can actually get competitive with, not because of popular remarks. There's a market out there which varies depending on the country you go.

Right there... thats common sense.

Oh and by the way, it's my type that identifies a market demand in my location, and figures out a way within my capacity to buildup supply. Common sense let's you do that. And that's a strategic skill.

I will always maintain that its always good for people to hold on to their opinions/perspectives regardless, I can never take my opinion about a matter for granted because it's a product of my thought process.

It's sad to know someone left Canada to chase an African dream that was someone else's opinion/perspective.

My point exactly.. I'm not opposed to him having his own opinion but dude should be neutral and let others air their views without censorship.

You can't tell me you haven't noticed how he dismisses people in such a rude manner.
That's very true, that's why I said I disagreed with you 60%. He's a bit rough around the edges.

The art of running a talk show and interviews does not come without proper studying of the field... and thats why people like Christine Amanpour et al are legendary being able to hold neutrality while discussing sensitive topics.

I think if he receives more constructive criticism on how he runs his show, he will get better with time.

Apparently he's a newbie grin

Not everyone has the luxury of having a plan. Sometimes you're in a situation of just migrating then figuring it out later. Who doesn't want to migrate legally? Maya is living in Ghana and travelling the continent. He's showing you first hand. But Maya has been critical of Africa situation. He has shown vulnerability many times on his channel. Lastly, you can't ask someone to do something you wouldn't do.
At the end of the day, all na hussle... a man needs to pay the bills cheesy
TravelRe: Why Nigerians Abroad Should Stop Listening To Phrankleen by optimusprime2(m): 3:40pm On Nov 15, 2020

He's a typical Nigerian abroad. He's an enemy of progress. He sits in the UK, with a stable government, light, running water, making pounds, etc, yet discourages people to migrate abroad. When asked why hasn't he comeback to naija (he was born in Europe actually) he'll tell you he'll be coming back that he has a plan. You know, the 40 year "I'm coming back home plan" where they never actually end up coming back home.

He loves to tell people about the unrealistic expectations of coming to the west, but never does the same about coming back to naija to his naive viewers. I'll take the negatives over the west any day than SARS and my own government killing me. Ironically wayo Phrank was able to protest in peace in the UK without being shot and killed. Funny the big bad western government treated him like a 1st class citizen in this situation.

Nobody should listen to someone who lives abroad but discourages you to come abroad, or stay abroad. I know someone who had a chance to collect her Canadian papers after university. But she listened to a Phranklin and went back to naija; as naija is the future according to him. Years later no job, she's there looking for how to return to Canada by any means. The guy who advised her is living a comfortable life, watching SARS and the military kill people from the comfort of his house in Canada. Never listen to someone who's asking you to do something they're not ready to do.
But to be Phrank wink, he never discourages people from going abroad, rather he is of the mindset that there should be a strong and clearcut plan when Nigerians are going abroad of which I strongly advocate for. Basically if you don't have a plan then it's better you stay in Nigeria... honestly I don't see anything wrong with advising such because there is a strong point on that regard. I remember a recording he made advising Nigerian students on countries where job seeking visas/ residency permits can be given after graduation from uni since the UK was being stiff.

I just see him as a Nigerian who is proud about being African and trying to change a narrative that has been mainstream for the longest; "Life in the west is far better as an African immigrant" of course everyone is entitled to his opinion on that topic, but so far I think he is doing a great job in trying to change that Narrative. I find his show intellectually engaging.

Wode Maya is literally doing the same thing too.

As for him returning to the motherland, I thought that's his business??
TravelRe: Why Nigerians Abroad Should Stop Listening To Phrankleen by optimusprime2(m):
@Sweetmelanin, on this one I disagree with you 60%...
Phrankleen may have his issues, but that dude talks sense "mostly". And anyone who watches him can attest to that-even you. grin

If he adopts a more neutral approach while having his talks i.e dealing with others that have opposing opinions(which is a skill that is usually learnt in some courses like mass communication or journalism), then trust me he runs a solid show. It's all about the narrative or opinion of which everyone has a right to.

Comeon, appreciate that brother, could you do any better?

#edited
To be frank, I want more channels like Phrankleen's as they help in diversifying my perspectives, so if you can do better, then I encourage you to start your own channel so I could subscribe.

It would be great to actually have you on a counter-debate/debate with Phrankleen on a hosted platform, because issues like what you raised could be intellectually analysed, and I loooooooooooove those kinda discussions.
