If Mourinho gets sacked, his next job offers would surely be limited to Portugal (either club teams or the national team).

I don't see any big team outside Portugal offering him a job.

Bitter truth unfortunately....though I would say he's mentally and intellectually lifeless... God help us all

Man Utd have never lost 0-2 at home in the league

Obixcel, do you believe that Buhari is a lifeless President?

He obviously sees his daughter as property that has commercial value

Oga I do not even plan on having a church wedding I don't go to church so which pastor wan see me tell me story I don't believe in all that.The day I told my aunt,mom and friends about this my idea of registry only they said the same thing and I responded with wetin concern me concern church.As long as my marriage (civil marriage)is legally recognized by the law every other thing does not matter
Once we do the registry marriage the money when I for use invite crowd I go use am go Madagascar or Mauritius depending on the one when cheap pass for honeymoon.
When that time comes I would stand my ground I done dey talk am for house small small.
I just want it small and simple not when I would do traditional,white and one uncle or aunty I do not now would want to come and collect something as part of bride price or whatever to me brideprice means you are buying the woman and I nor be anybody property .

Wow.

You’re one brave Naija woman. I salute you for standing your ground.

Ladyhippolyta88:
I watched the programme today and Tope was kind of realistic.
I support Nyma and Jumoke's view on the issue discussed today.
And as Tope said if you cannot go with the rules don't do traditional wedding so that I won't hear those stupid rules she listed which some Nigerians believe especially once the traditional is done they believe another human is their property.That is why I would rather have a registry marriage only no time for elaborate or big things and spending unnecessary money(in my opinion) on wedding and have my honeymoon in Madagascar or Mauritius,family's opinion is secondary I done dey tell them small small for house.

Well, the issue with your idea is that a lot of Nigerian pastors will say your marriage isn’t recognized by God if you don’t go through the traditional rites.

There are many like him reading this story

It’s very sad indeed

happney65:

And he told us that he only hires the best people

dingbang:
fine bro. Do you reside in India?

Nope

It’s better for a husband and wife to set up a joint account where they would deposit a certain percentage of their income.
By doing so, there is less drama of how much a man should give to his wife monthly.

dingbang:
how far

Not doing badly. How about you?

Mariangeles:

Goat meat curry, and chicken makhani

I just need to know if Trump can be mandated to appear in court or does he have immunity too? Would this plea be grounds for possible impeachment against him?

The U.S. President has to appear before a court, if he issued a subpoena. Likewise, Trump must answer Special Counsel Mueller’s inquiry if the latter issues a subpoena for him to testify.

However, the US Department of Justice has a policy of not indicting a sitting president who has been accused of a crime. The DOJ believes that it is the job of the Congress to punish a president via impeachment (and possibly removal).

Michael Cohen Says He Arranged Payments to Women at Trump’s Direction

Michael D. Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, made the extraordinary admission in court on Tuesday that Mr. Trump had directed him to arrange payments to two women during the 2016 campaign to keep them from speaking publicly about affairs they said they had with Mr. Trump.

Mr. Cohen acknowledged the illegal payments while pleading guilty to breaking campaign finance laws and other charges, a litany of crimes that revealed both his shadowy involvement in Mr. Trump’s circle and his own corrupt business dealings.

He told a judge in United States District Court in Manhattan that the payments to the women were made “in coordination with and at the direction of a candidate for federal office,” implicating the president in a federal crime.

“I participated in this conduct, which on my part took place in Manhattan, for the principal purpose of influencing the election” for president in 2016, Mr. Cohen said.

The plea represented a pivotal moment in the investigation into the president, and the scene in the Manhattan courtroom was striking. Mr. Cohen, a longtime lawyer for Mr. Trump — and loyal confidant — described in plain-spoken language how Mr. Trump worked with him to cover up a potential sex scandal that Mr. Trump feared would endanger his rising candidacy.

Mr. Cohen also pleaded guilty to multiple counts of tax evasion and a single count of bank fraud, capping a monthslong investigation by Manhattan federal prosecutors who examined his personal business dealings and his role in helping to arrange the financial deals with women connected to Mr. Trump.

The plea came shortly before another blow to the president: His former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, was convicted in his financial fraud trial in Virginia. The special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, had built a case that Mr. Manafort hid millions of dollars in foreign accounts to evade taxes and lied to banks to obtain millions of dollars in loans.

Mr. Trump’s lawyers have, for months, said privately that they considered Mr. Cohen’s case to be potentially more problematic for the president than the investigation by the special counsel.

But Mr. Trump’s lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani, said in a statement after Mr. Cohen’s plea, “There is no allegation of any wrongdoing against the president in the government’s charges against Mr. Cohen.”

In federal court in Manhattan, Mr. Cohen made the admission about Mr. Trump’s role in the payments to the women — an adult film actress and a former Playboy playmate — as he pleaded guilty to two campaign finance crimes.

One of those charges stemmed from a $130,000 payment he made to the actress, Stephanie Clifford, better known as Stormy Daniels, in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election. Prosecutors said that Trump Organization executives were involved in reimbursing Mr. Cohen for that payment, accepting his phony invoices that listed it as a legal expense. The other charge concerned a complicated arrangement in which a tabloid bought the rights to the story about the former Playboy model, Karen McDougal, then killed it.

Mr. Cohen’s plea was announced by Robert Khuzami, the deputy United States attorney, along with senior officials from the F.B.I. and the Internal Revenue Service. Addressing reporters outside the courthouse, Mr. Khuzami said that Mr. Cohen had “decided that he was above the law, and for that, he is going to pay a very, very serious price.”

The plea agreement does not call for Mr. Cohen to cooperate with federal prosecutors in Manhattan. Still, it does not preclude him from providing information to them later or to the special counsel, who is examining the Trump campaign’s possible involvement in Russia’s interference in the 2016 campaign. If Mr. Cohen were to substantially assist the special counsel’s investigation, Mr. Mueller could recommend a reduction in his sentence.

Mr. Cohen had been the president’s longtime fixer, handling some of his most sensitive personal matters over a decade at the Trump Organization. He once said he would take a bullet for Mr. Trump.

As Mr. Cohen addressed the judge, admitting to the crimes he had committed, the packed courtroom remained silent. Even when Mr. Cohen made obvious references to Mr. Trump, referring to him as “the candidate” and “a candidate for federal office,” spectators seemed to listen raptly, with no gasps or audible reactions.

cococandy:
these boys have turned to something else

Just like the ones who say their “uncle” paid the nursing school tuition of their wives
A lot of people just utter rubbish to make themselves feel good

cococandy:
Very funny. You convinced her to send you a screenshot of your chat with her. why didn’t you get the screenshot from your own phone? So a girl that’s trying to avoid getting exposed will willingly send you evidence to get her. You must think everyone is as dumb as you. Chatting with yourself like a mad person

Ode

It’s obvious you’re a jobless nairaland woman basher. You nairaland boys are so pathetic.

I just laughed the moment I read he’s sending her $3000 monthly. Go and tell that to your fellow dummies

sofiaelvis:
will she start start seeing her monthly flow (periods)
just curious

BTW he fine pass Bobrisky

She won’t have a monthly flow, and doesn’t have a womb nor Fallopian tube. Transgender surgery only adds breasts, hips, and a superficial vagina to the body.

Present!

In the US, your credit score is really important. With good credit (generally a score of 700 or higher out of 850), you can buy a new car of $13,000 with a minimal down-payment, and an interest rate of around 1.5%-3%.

Also, a good number of landlords run your credit before deciding to lease an apartment to you; the bank will grant you a mortgage if your credit score is good.

Bad credit (generally 600 or below) means that you’d only be able to buy a car via a car note, or get a mortgage at relatively high interest rates of between 7-9% (or even more). What this all means is that when Peter only pays $55/month for owning an iPhone 10, you may be required to pay $120/month if you have bad credit, and and Peter has excellent credit.

Now, it’s possible to own cars, phones, etc by paying cash for them. But I would guesstimate that over 90% of US residents rely on credit to purchase those items.

Indeed, the US economy is a credit-based economy.

Poverty is a disease. Making $300 Dollar for a porn movie while I make over 500,000 any night I sleep with a senator

Lol.

$300-$400 is the standard for an amateur porn actress like her, according to industry insiders

If convicted, Paul Manafort could spend up to 300 years in prison

He (through his attorneys) should aggressively argue any mitigating circumstances that will reduce his prison term, if convicted.

olapluto:
Even the coach of the Falcons is not it. He may bring some organisation to the team, but going forward, we will be crap.

I doubt whether the Rita Chikwelu I saw at the 2016 AWCON has anything positive to offer the team at the World Cup.

It pains me to say this, but our ‘star’ players, with the possible exception of an Oshoala, Ngozi Okobi or Oparanozie, only shine against African opposition. And most (99.5%) of African teams are merely “kick and follow” teams; they have almost no football IQ.
Thus, when our teams face slightly better non-Africans teams who have a much higher football IQ, our players then look bang average, at best.

dabossman:
No VAR?

Thank goodness

The best strategy to achieve victory, later today, is for the team to attack and defend as a team!

Part of the Falconets problem with regard to scoring goals, has been the lack of options when one player has possession of the ball in the final third. At most, she only has 2-3 teammates who join her in the attack. That should not be the case.

When attacking, there should be 6 players both in the middle of the opponents half and the final third. The more players who join the attack, the higher the chance of putting serious pressure on the Spanish defense.

olapluto:
We live to fight another day. Spain will thrash this team 3-0 or more if the coach continues his way.

Yes, the touches of our girls need to be a lot better; and with a bit more football IQ, the Falconets can beat Spain.

What drama at the end of the game! Ajibade stepped up when it mattered most. Phew

But the attacking play in the final third still needs some improvement.
