Truth is that Randy already knows 98% of the squad that he will pick for the World Cup. It’s probably only 2-3 spots that would be truly competitive

Amazing how he can quickly flip. If he comes back, The Dems would use the operation let him speak on him again. However, him coming back on twitter would likely spell a complete doom for his truth social.
Exactly. The moment he returns to Twitter, Truth Social would just have to be closed down

Politics › Concession: FG Announces Preferred Bidders For Abuja, Lagos, Kano Airports by PDPGuy(op): 11:40pm On Oct 26, 2022
THE Federal Government, FG, on Wednesday, announced the emergence of preferred and reserve bidders for three out of four Airport and Cargo Terminals as approved for concession after the Request for Proposals, RFP, phase of the Nigeria Airports Concession Programme, NACP.

The Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, while addressing press men during a press briefing, in Abuja, said the concession came after a multistage process, adding that it was not the final outcome of the NACP programme.

Sirika, however, disclosed that corporacion America Airports Consortium emerged double bidder for the concession program for Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, NAIA, Abuja and Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport, MAKIA, Kano, respectively.

He said that as for the fourth airport asset, the ministry is still in consultation with the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission, ICRC, to decide on the way forward.

He said: “The Request for Proposals (RFP) phase of the Nigeria Airports Concession Programme (NACP), which came to a close on the 19” of September 2022 has seen the emergence of preferred and reserve bidders for three (3) out of four (4) Airports and Cargo Terminals as approved for concession under the programme.
[b]“The preferred bidder for the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), Abuja, is Corporacion America Airports Consortium. ENL Consortium has also been selected as the reserve bidder for NAIA.”


He further disclosed that “The preferred bidder for Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, is TAV/NAHCO/PROJECT PLANET LIMITED(PPL) Consortium. Sifax/Changi Consortium has also been selected as the reserve bidder for MMIA.

The preferred bidder for Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport (MAKIA), Kano, is Corporacion America Airports Consortium. There are no reserve bidders for MAKIA as at the time of this announcement.

“Port Harcourt International Airport (PHIA), Port Harcourt, did not receive any proposals as of the RFP deadline close and as such has not had preferred and reserve bidders attached to it”, he added.

Republicans have DeSantis who can easily replace Trump or even Glen Youngkin

Who are the younger rising stars of the Democratic party with National appeal that are seen as moderates and not far left loonies
That is a crucial question because the likes of Gov Newsome of CA, AOC, Kamala Harris are not as popular outside their home states, and as you said, are generally regarded as uber liberal. So, I'm not sure whether the aforementioned names could win a national election without running alongside a moderate politician. Its the same reason why, despite her popularity within the Democratic Party, Nancy Pelosi has never contemplated running for President.

Nonetheless, Governor Whitmer may be the closest Democratic rising star to run as a moderate, especially when you consider the fact that she has been governor of a swing state - Michigan - for over 3 years, and is basically coasting to re-election this year, in spite of the massive criticisms that greeted her COVID-related decrees.

I hope he doesn't run again. He has significant baggage and would destroy the party in the primaries

DeSantis for President. After he crushes Charlie Crist in the race for governor
Yeah. I share the same sentiments. Trump running again risks creating a perception that the Republican party is his personal property.

Likewise, Biden should give way for a younger politician for the 2024 Democratic primaries. After all, he has been in politics for over 50 years.

Right. He will be better off being a sort of political godfather to the likes of Gov Desantis, Tulsi Gabbard, Kari Lake etc.

Graham Potter winning a UCL group at the first time of asking. Not too bad at all...
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 10:20pm On Oct 25, 2022
Well, for the Super Falcons to have ANY chance of advancing from Group B, they will need to learn how to string more than 3 passes in the opposition half and in midfield. The team will also need midfielders who are intelligent enough to spot the runs of Oshoala, Ajibade, Onumonu and release passes to them ON TIME. Otherwise, this team will be eliminated from the WC group stage.

5 attempts on target within 45 mins (away from home) ain’t a bad return.

However, we need to put this game to bed with a further 2 goals

Of course, no one expects 2015 prices to be 2022 prices.

But what is unacceptable is 300% - 400% increase in prices within 7 years!

Indians are incredibly competitive but usually gang up together to pull one another up. If an Indian gets into an organisation he will work hard to climb to the top, but also ensure that he gets other Indians in as well. Check back in 15 years and the organisation is half-Indian. It doesn’t matter if it is even receptionist job. That receptionist’s son will grow up to become a heart surgeon.

Nigerians are very competitive but often tackle one another not to be left behind. If a Nigerian gets a good job in a lucrative organisation he will probably tell his fellow Nigerians that it is God. He won’t fight hard to get them in so that they don’t pour “sand sand” in his garri. Nigerians will usually try to do it alone while Indians pool resources together like crazy.

Another thing about Indians is that they have sneaky good way of ingratiating themselves with top white guys, and before you know it they are “in” with the bosses and making fun of you guys while other immigrants are still on the outside looking in.

The last factor is just population advantage. There are a billion of those guys back in India trying to head out to the West.
You’ve said it all!

This is commendable. But the country still needs to generate AND transmit 30,000-40,000MW to guarantee 24hr electricity supply.
I know it will take time; that’s why I hope the next governments at the federal and state levels will continue to invest massively in the power sector.

Twitter are about to layoff 25% or more of their workers within the next year. If Elon Musk’s takeover bid is cleared by the US government, he may fire a whopping 75% of the company’s workforce!

This link suggests that a key reason for such a massive layoff is that Twitter recorded a $411 million loss last year..
