1. Most Africans still love job.

When will Africans start to hate job? We have to start to hate job today! We have to start telling our young children from age 9 and above that job is not available again, and if it is available, it is no more good like the days of our fathers. We are very poor because we love job.


2. Africans are poor because we run businesses like mere “buying and selling.”

While majority of Africans don’t think about being business owners, those who think (or who condition forced to be business owners) are not running business like 21st century business, instead, they are running business like 15th century’s business. You know, in the 15th century, all you have to do is to figure out a product or service to sell. If you can smile a little people will love you and patronize your business.

3. Africans are poor because an average African is irresponsible.

An average 16 year old boy in many advanced countries of the world has being planning how he will get out of his father’s home and create his own life. Most 30 years old Africans still see themselves as infants, who need help. We love to receive a ready-made, stress free success.

Unfortunately, maize doesn’t come to life until a farmer gets dirty. Africans have to (urgently) wake up and be responsible.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QCSYCCCmFI


4.Africans are poor because we are still proud of school and certificate.

universities and polytechnics are not giving the kinds of education we need now and therefore should be killed. There will ever be poverty in Africa until people embrace education and not certificate. 

5.. Most Africans hate knowledge, including financial knowledge.

Till today, book is still the greatest revealer of secrets. But Africans will not read. If you want to hide something from an African, they say, keep it in a book.

Here are details about the Ballon d'Or award, which was first awarded in 1956. 

The Ballon d'Or award is now a separate award, it was only from 2009 until 2015 the two awards were merged to create the FIFA Ballon d'Or. In 2018, the first women's Ballon d'Or award was presented (called the Ballon d'Or Féminin).

Up until 1995, the award was often referred to as the European Footballer of the Year award as it was only open to European players at European clubs. The eligibility rules were changed in 1995 to allow non-European players to be eligible for the award if they played for a European club. Then in 2007, any player in the world became eligible.

After 2009, the award was merged with the FIFA player of the year award. In 2016, France Football announced that their partnership with FIFA had come to an end and that they would revive the Ballon d'Or award, the 2016 edition became the 61st award.

Lionel Messi has won the Ballon d'Or award six times, Cristiano Ronaldo has won the award five times.

A yet-to-be-identified Nigerian man has been laid to rest together with the bet 9ja coupons which caused his untimely death.

Reports gathered that the deceased who was a bet 9ja player prior to his death, played 2 slips which did not yield the desired result, as they both failed.
He actually played the two slips to get a total income of N41.2million. One slip for N34million and the other slip for N7.2million
After playing, the two slips cut along the line and the man who couldn’t bear the sad outcome, slumped and died. He has now been laid to rest together with the bet9ja coupons.

The Super Eagles kick-start their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualification campaign with a Group L tie against the Squirrels in Uyo on Wednesday

Head to Head
The Super Eagles have never lost to the Squirrels in 12 meetings, winning 10, including the last five. Their last meeting was during the 2010 Afcon in Angola with Nigeria winning 1-0.


Match Venue
The Super Eagles return to the Godswill Akpabio Stadium for the first time since October 2018, playing four home games at Stephen Keshi Stadium in Asaba, winning two and drawing two.


Clean sheet masters
In the 12 previous matches between Nigeria and Benin Republic, the bigger nation has kept a clean sheet nine times, conceding just once in a competitive fixture, which occurred in a 2-1 win during the 2004 Afcon in Tunisia.


Goal scarcity
This fixture has not been known for goals with three or more surfacing on only three occasions, the last one occuring in a 5-0 friendly victory for Nigeria on November 1979. Four of the last six encounters between both sides have witnessed two or less goals.


Potential debutant
Enyimba centre-back Ifeanyi Anaemena could be in line to make his senior national team debut after he was called up to replace Brian Idowu who had passport issues. Should Anaemena feature at Godswill Akpabio Stadium, he will be the first player from the Nigeria Professional Football League to do so since Ikechukwu Ezenwa against Madagascar during the 2019 Afcon in Egypt.


Lack of victories
Benin have been struggling for wins and have just one victory since Afcon 2019, drawing four times and losing twice. Before the commencement of the competition in Egypt, Benin won three on the bounce.


Aribo effect
Joe Aribo had been something of a catalyst for Nigeria, scoring two goals in his first two games. With his ever-increasing reputation, more of the same fine form will be expected from him in Uyo on Wednesday.


Super Sessegnon
Any hopes of Benin getting their first ever win against Nigeria will rest largely on Stephane Sessegnon. The Genclerbirligi forward is the Squirrels all-time leading marksmen with 23 goals, and also international caps (80).

Dude there are more, n.a. only 4 hour phone browser see?

I mean the famous one's

Discipline has always played an important role. Be it on the football pitch, or off it, football is considered one of the most passionate games in the world, and in the midst of it being an extremely fortified sport, it comes with the kind of drawbacks that a player cannot think of. A contact sport, football offers more injuries than any other team sport can ever garner.

We have seen the likes of Luis Suarez and Sergio Ramos, who have had their fair share in terms of getting the biggest punishment on the pitch. The disciplinary factor always plays an important role in a footballer's career.

However, there are always the 'chosen ones', as we like to call them, who have never really done anything to be victimised by a referee, or have not said anything unusual to anybody. These lads have never been red carded, suspended or sidelined due to any kind of unethical disciplinary behaviour, as all they have done is play the beautiful game.

Here are our 4 picks for some of the biggest names in the sport's history, who have never received a red card by any means.

4 Joao Moutinho

3 Karim Benzema

2 Raul Gonzalez

1 Andres Iniesta

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Campaign Council has alleged that the opposition party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Kogi state government are planning to move the weekend polls by two weeks from the scheduled date.

The party reported the allegation in a statement signed by its Deputy Director Public Communication, Comrade Austin Okai claiming the alleged move by APC is hinged on the strong public opinion polls and the general feelings, that the incumbent governor, Yahaya Bello will be beaten to the third position in the weekend election, if INEC election is held as originally scheduled.


Okai in the statement appealed to INEC not to concede to any unholy moves by the APC that will jeopardise the expectations of the people of the state, against installing good governance by voting the PDP in the Saturday’s election.

He said the teeming supporters and voters across the state have travelled from far and near, to enable them to elect the candidate of their choice as the next governor of Kogi state, and cannot afford to be disenfranchised.

Lagos is one of the richest cities in Africa.

Top 5 Interesting Facts About Lagos

Lagos a city in Nigeria, is also one of Africa’s major financial centers. Here are some interesting facts associated with this city:

5. Lagos Is The City With The Third Highest Number Of Millionaires In Africa
Lagos is home to around 130 individuals of ultra high net worth (UHNWI) with over $30 million of net assets excluding their private residence. This is the third highest figure in UHNWI’s of any city located on the African continent. The two cities ranking above Lagos in this ranking are Johannesburg in South Africa and Cairo in Egypt.

4. Lagos Is The Only African City In The List Of “The World’s 10 Most Populated Cities”

With a population of more than 16 million, Lagos is Africa’s most populated city and the 4th most populated city globally. It is one of the world’s fastest growing cities. The population is increasing here at a rate of about 275,000 per year. People from other parts of Nigeria and the neighboring countries migrate to Lagos in search of a better life and new economic opportunities.

3. Lagos Is The Birthplace Of Many Styles Of Music
The city is famous throughout the continent for its rich culture and music. A number of styles of music like the Afrobeat, Nigerian hip-hop, juju, Fuji, Sakara music, etc., have evolved in this city. The vibrant nightlife of Lagos has also encouraged the music scene in the city.

2. Lagos Is Associated With Black Cultural Identity
One of the most famous and developed cities in Africa, and a melting pot of many African cultures, Lagos is regarded as an important location for black cultural identity. Festivals like the Lagos Black Heritage Carnival, Festac Food Fair, etc., promote African culture, cuisine, music, dance, and more.

1. Lagos Has One Of Africa’s Busiest Ports

The Port of Lagos is one of the continent’s largest and busiest ports. The Nigerian Ports Authority handles the administration of the port area. Oil and petroleum are the most important products that are exported from the Port of Lagos. The export of these products accounts for 14% of the national GDP and 90% of the country’s foreign exchange.

Lagos the centre of Excellence is one of the most beautiful and industrious states in Nigeria and like a popular saying goes in pidgin English, “If you no fit make am for Lagos, you no fit make am anywhere” simply means If you can’t be successful in Lagos, you can’t be successful anywhere else. This is just a common slag in Lagos but it goes a long way to explain how industrious Lagos is and the kind of opportunities you can find in Lagos state. As beautiful as this state is, there is something that just drives a normal Lagosian crazy everyday that passes by.




One of these things is undoubtedly the crazy Lagos traffic. Every Lagosian will tell you that driving in Lagos is way more different from driving in any other part of the world. This is not cause our driving rules and regulations are different from the basics but a whole lot goes into driving in Lagos.

Today I’ll be sharing with you five sets of people you should always obey while driving in Lagos. Some of these people aren’t your regular traffic enforcers but It will be of great advantage for you if you drive in Lagos and listen to them



First of, Traffic Wardens: Traffic wardens in Lagos include the likes of the Nigeria Traffic Police, Lagos State Traffic Management officials (LASTMA), Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) etc.

Obeying these guys is just the normal and the right thing to do because as officials they help maintain sanity in traffic and also instil law and order.



Second on my list is the Federal SARS: The Federal Special anti robbery squad have become a nightmare to everyone mobile in Nigeria.These guys actually mount road blocks and create checkpoints as they wish and it’s just advisable to stop and adhere to them politely whenever you encounter them while driving. Refusing their Instructions while driving in Lagos might land you beating,a couple of bullet wounds etc.




The Nigerian army: If you are a Nigerian by Nationality, listening to this set of guys is just common sense, but if you think it isn't, then you’re free to discard this advise.



NURTW members: NURTW is short form for National Union of Road Transport Workers and they serve as a mother umbrella for commercial buses, tricycles, motor bikes etc The twist about this group is they are also road users but they cause so much menace.



Now for this set, listening to them is optional. It is only advisable to follow their instructions when you come across them while driving, because disobedience to them will cost you your side mirror, windscreen etc.



Lastly, obey Any convoy of any sort: In Lagos anyone can own a convoy. All you need is a truck filled with men of the armed force and a reckless driver. So when you're told to make way for them in traffic please do, cause you never might know if it's a senator's housemaid rushing to the market to get foodstuff for her hungry boss and you don’t want to step on an hungry man’s toe.


Hopefully you find this list helpful and when next you’re caught up in Lagos traffic you know who and who to listen to.

Man goes viral after posing with his mentally challenged father

Man goes viral after posing with his mentally challenged father
The photo of a young man posing with his mentally challenged father has gone viral on the internet.

The twitter user with the handle @HonBenard shared a touching photo on the platform that has left social media users charged up about the rare bond between fathers and their sons.


Man goes viral after posing with his mentally challenged father
In the photo, he could be seen striking a close pose with the man who appeared so unkempt and obviously mentally-deranged.


The young man then captioned the photo asking people never to run away from their parents, regardless of the hardships or disturbing situations they may be faced with.

“Never run away from your parents no matter the situation,” Otieno’s caption read.

Never run away from your parents no matter the situation.

is post however garnered mixed reactions as some people asked if that was the right thing to do.

My fiancee’s friend seduced me, now I feel guilty – Man cries out
A Nigerian man has taken to popular Nigerian forum, Nairaland, to narrate on how his fiancee’s friend seduced him into sleeping with her.

In his post, he wrote on how he now feels guilty for cheating on his fiancee, especially since she didn’t deserve such treatment from him.

A group, Muslim Community of Oyo State (MUSCOYS), have warned Governor Seyi Makinde over the planned demolishing of the torture centre discovered in the state.



According to the chairman of MUSCOYS, Alhaji Ishaq Kunle Sanni, the centre has been there for over 50 years and it is registered with the government as a rehabilitation centre, contrary to the claims by the Police and the state government, that it was operating illegally, Daily Post reports.

Sanni said,

“I cannot talk for Kaduna. I don’t live in Kaduna. I don’t know what has happened there. But for Olore, that place has been there for over 50 years and it is registered with the government as a rehabilitation centre. It is possible they [owners of the centre] have been a little ruthless or crude in the way they treat the inmates but one thing is clear: there is not a single person in that place that was not brought there either by the parents or the guardians.

“It is when they [children] go haywire in their behavioural patterns – whether they become drug addicts, armed robbers, area boys or whatever – and the parents are not comfortable that they are brought to that Olore rehabilitation centre.

Sanni, while speaking further maintained that it is the parents of the inmates that brought their wayward children to the centre for rehabilitation and not that the operators pick them on the streets as claimed by some individuals who have commented on the issue.

“If the government, or the police, does a thorough investigation, they will find that even there are non-Muslims brought in there by their parents. And a lot of them, after staying for some time there, become refined, you know, good members of the society. Some of them [people who had been inmates at the centre] are now medical doctors, pharmacists, engineers and so on and so forth. Even if need be, one can point to them. And some people are even making arrangements to come together as alumni and do a press conference to show that they were reformed at that place.

“I am not saying that maybe they have not gone into excess in the way they [the inmates] are being treated ‘inhumanly’, but for the government or the police to go to the extent of saying they would demolish the house of Olore, which is part and parcel of the rehabilitation centre, I think, it is going too far and I am sure it will not go down well with the Muslim community. They have different sections there.

“Some of these boys and girls are very violent and so they [the operators of the centre] need to go the extra mile to chain them in order to get the rehabilitation done. And they do a lot of spiritual activities in terms of praying for them and the rest of it so that they could get them to become good and patriotic citizens of the country. Some of them, like I have told you, have become in terms of manner; they have made success stories of their lives. So, I don’t think they should throw away the baby and the bathwater. It is a different scenario from where they say they [the inmates] are being raped and whatnots. That place is a real rehabilitation centre that is using the Islamic touch.

“There might be certain things that are inhuman and that kind of stuff but, so the government should just come in and make sure that they reorient them so that the excesses that are being committed, I am not too sure, I have not been there, would be corrected. But the issue of saying the government will demolish or eradicate that centre, I don’t think, is in the best interest of the society at large. Those inmates will say anything because they don’t want to be there. It is like a prison yard, and somebody who is in prison, if he has a way of escaping would escape. So, they can say all sorts of things that they are being maltreated but it is a real rehabilitation and reformation centre as far as the Muslim community is concerned. That is our position.

“That is why I said they might have been too crude in taking care of them [the inmates] and those are the excesses that should be corrected and not to completely annihilate that structure and the whole idea of the rehabilitation centre.

“I want to add that the parents [of the inmates] pay. If you take your wards there, you have to pay for them to be fed. There should be a real investigation of what is going on there [at the centre]. The government should not take a harsh decision. That place also houses the wives and children of the owner of the place.

“I have seen the photographs of some of the inmates that look over haggard. These are the corrections they need to do. We all know that even policemen, when they catch criminals, they do some torturing in order to get information or get them to admit to what they have done. And that is exactly what I say; that there are some of the inmates that are very violent and part of the reformation is to also treat them harshly so that they can behave”.

Not once, not twice, have we seen big clubs got eliminated from the Champions League group stages. It happened to Chelsea in the 2012/2013 season, it happened to Manchester United in the 2015/2016 season - and it seems like we could be served that kind of fun this season.

Chelsea, Ajax and Valencia are all tied on seven points and it would not have been like that if not for those minor mistakes - but those mistakes have always been one of the fun parts of football - imagine if Barkley had left that penalty to Jorginho against Valencia - imagine if Valencia had not conceded a late equaliser against Lille. However, they have happend and here we are.

Chelsea could be eliminated from the group stage - let's be frank, any of those three in that group could be. Chelsea are primed to face Valencia next while Lille will host Ajax. The focus, on that matchday, would not be in France - the focus would be in Spain, where Chelsea wil be playing Valencia. If Chelsea lose to Valencia and Ajax win against Lille, both winners will be on 10 points and Valencia would be qualifying irrespective of what happens against Ajax and how wide the score margin is if Chelsea beat Lille. Why, right? Because Champions League prioritizes head-to-head over goal difference and Valencia would have done a double over Chelsea. Assuming the Chelsea and Valencia illustration happens, Ajax would need just four points to qualify - beat Lille and draw Valencia or draw Lille and Beat Valancia, just do both and show why you're Ajax. If everything happens like that, Ajax and Valencia will go through with Ajax topping the group and Chelsea on their way to the 'prestigious' Europa League.

However, Chelsea could beat Valencia with any scoreline other than the first leg's own, lose to Lille and still qualify - irrespective of what happens in the Ajax vs Valencia game. Chelsea could draw Valencia, beat Lille and still qualify irrespective of what happens in the other match - the only problem with this theory is that Chelsea will be playing at home against Lille and we all know what has been happening at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League this season. If you're not a Chelsea fan, just enjoy with your popcorn.

Unlike Chelsea, Barcelona actually need to mess this up if they want to play in the Europa League. Barcelona are on top with eight points, Borrusia Dortmund are 2nd with seven points and Inter Milan are 3rd with four points. The only way Barcelona could be eliminated is if they lose to Dortmund and Inter and Inter beat Slavia Prague, which is quite possible. Barcelona have been very inconsistent this season but it will be crazy to lose at home to Dortmund and then lose to Inter.

The downside for 'haters of Barcelona' is that Messi is still a footballer and he is in fact, playing for Barcelona - he really could decide to have a field day. The upside for y'all is that Barcelona have been messing things up recently and if Roma and Liverpool could do it, Inter Millan and Dortmund can!

So Hot

He will depart Abuja this morning and return later today.”

There has been call for restraint and dialogue to end the latest political crisis in that West African country.

Guinea-Bissau President Jose Mario Vaz triggered the latest escalation in an ongoing power struggle with the ruling PAIGC (African Party of the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde) party, of which he was once a member.

He recently sacked Prime Minister Aristides Gomes and named a replacement from a minority political party.

But Gomes has refused to step down, escalating tensions ahead of an already delayed presidential election scheduled for November 24.
