The first charges have been filed by the Mueller Special Prosecution.

They should both make decisions jointly. After all they are united as one, when married.

It’s England v Spain at the U-17 WC final.

England look like clear favorites to win Saturday’s game.

@Armyofone and PDPguy, over to you my friends. The shiiiit is about to happen.

Chai. I have no qualms being an umpire. Someone is about to get richer..

happney65:
I wonder ohh..They live in the world of alternative facts..I was showing him the behaviour of a 71Year Old demented fool who hasnt made any success else to get into twitter fights with everyone he is just ranting and saying nonesense talk..I never knew obama got into twitter fights with members of his party..Never knew he went on fights with NFL Players..He was a world class Man with no scandal with a near perfect family not this one whos olosho wives where fighting in Public..

Even Bush, with the constant criticism over the handling of the response to Katrina, and war in Iraq, never publicly lashed out at every criticism of him. He was much more dignified in his conduct as president.

Of course, I’m expecting 95% of the players, who were called up for the last 3 games, to make the World Cup team. That’s just common sense. If Rohr only takes like 10% of the players who played in the qualifiers, I would immediately call for his sack.

At least, 16 or 17 of them (barring injury) will absolutely be part of the mundial. It is the other 6 or 7 spots that are really up for grabs.

If the likes of Onyekuru, Kayode, Aluko or Uzoho continue having fine performances for most of the remainder of the season, it will be difficult for Rohr not to give them a chance to show what they’ve got.

As for Enyeama, if he barely makes the bench for whatever new team he signs for, then Rohr may just have to drop him. However, it will be also a sad story if that happens, because a part of me wants Enyeama to create history as the first Nigerian (or even African?) to have played in 4 world cups.

I wish Dankwambo will throw his hat into the ring

MackyNaija:
Thanks.
30 outta 36 is a tough one, except the difficulty level is medium.

Driving test shouldn't be a problem, I have driven here a couple of times - at least once weekly in the last 6weeks.

Here, $25 is paid and the process is valid for 90 days - 3 chances to pass the written test and 3 chances to pass the driving test in the 90 day period.

Wow. Your state is quite considerate. Here, its only the initial drive test that is free.

Also, if you fail the drive test, you will have to wait two weeks after first attempt to retake it.

forgiveness:
Well, I don't know but If that be the case, what about Akpeyi who also was on goals for some games?

Akpeyi only played one WC qualifying game - the home game vs Algeria.

forgiveness:
First of all, the coach said Akpeyi is his 3rd choice, therefore Akpeyi is out of the equation and Ikechuckwu Ezenwa is now in to compete with the rest.


From what my eyes saw this night, if I am the coach I will bring in Uzoho because he is naturally good.


No 1

Vincent Enyeama

No 2

Daniel Akpeyi

No 3

Francis Uzoho

If NFF are dogmatic about Enyeama not going to the world Cup then


My number one is

Daniel Akpeyi


No 2

Francis Uzoho


No 3


Dele Alampasu

Rohr may have said Akpeyi is his 3rd choice keeper. But what happens to Ezenwa, who has played 270 minutes of WC qualifiers? I think it will be harsh to drop him, absent a drastic loss in form and/or injury.

So, can Uzoho displace anyone of Akpeyi, Alampasu or Ajiboye for one of the 3 GK slots?

MackyNaija:
Took the test and I just got home.

It was a Basic Knowledge Test
I am unhappy I put off writing this test for this long, I would have passed it if I wrote it a month ago.
I performed very well from the much I read, got 26 outta 30. You only need 21 correct answers to pass - I just deh give myself unnecessary anxiety.

It was a normal exam though tricky. Twas a nice experience.
Next week is the driving test, I suppose pass this one as per experienced Nigerian driver.

Documents I used for processing -
1. Passport and Visa
2. I20 and I94.
3. 2 Proof of residence - lease agreement and bank statement (they rejected my electricity bill; it had my address but didn't have my apartment number)
4. $25 fee.

Modified -
The test was to be taken over 480 minutes, I did it in less than 15minutes. It shouldn't take more than 30mins for most people.

Congrats! At least, the first half is done and dusted, now onto the 2nd important component.

In California, you'd have to score a minimum of 30/36 on the written test. And at the time I took the driving test, it was free. Then, if you fail the drive test, you get to pay a $5 fee to retake it (the fees may have changed though).

And they want equal rights!

Is there a correlation between someone’s dress style and the rights they deserve? Or am I missing something?

The last days are here.

Indeed. Although it is a victory for the transgender community, it may create problems for those of them who visit foreign countries that do not recognize "non-binary" gender, assuming the US State Department allows US passport holders to identify as non-binary. I wonder how that issue would be resolved.

California Governor Jerry Brown signed first-of-its kind legislation over the weekend that enables residents of the state to choose a third, non-binary gender category on California state-issued IDs, birth certificates and driver’s licenses.

The Gender Recognition Act, or Senate Bill 179, also reportedly makes the process of an individual changing their gender on legal documents easier by no longer requiring a statement from a physican declaring that they’ve undergone “clinical treatment.”

“As the LGBT community — but especially the trans community — is under assault in this country, California needs to go in the opposite direction and embrace the trans community and support the trans community and modernize these laws,” State Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), who co-sponsored the bill alongside Sen. Toni Atkins (D-San Diego), said in a statement.

While Oregon and Washington D.C. have undergone steps to make it easier for citizens to legally identify as non-binary, California is the first to enshrine a third gender category into law.

Brown also signed legislation this weekend that enables transgender people to change their name while incarcerated, which proponents say will help them get a leg up faster once they leave prison.

A number of other countries already have or are in the process of passing legislation that allows citizens to legally identify outside of the gender binary, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, U.K, Pakistan and Nepal.

Mad Maxine Walters: "I will take Trump out...."
Where to? To dinner? On a Date?

On a date nau. I heard Trump has a crush on her, but he shouldn't grab her by the pussy while they are on the date.

MackyNaija:
Soooo confused right now...

Planning on going to take the driver's license exam tomorrow, I haven't prepared adequately so it is a 50-50 chance of success based on the fact that I will apply common sense + experience while writing it.
It is long overdue, my Nigerian license expires in a few days time - almost 90day since I arrived in the US.

To write or not to write??
Lemme see how tonight preparation goes...
I can't postpone this any longer.

Documents needed and experience will be update later.

I’ll advise you to study your state’s driver handbook for, like, 3-4 days before taking the exam. That exam can be quite tricky too.

mechanics:
you are right o, but what made her go to China league?

The N7 million/month salary took her there.

Confirmed: Nigeria v Argentina on November 14

Update: It turns out that reports of Balogun's unavailability for the Algeria (and Argentina) games are false after all, as implied by him on his twitter pages. Looks like the Oyibo wall will stand erect in the double header. But Moses is still out for a month.

-----------------Ezenwa----------------

---Shehu----Ekong--Balogun----Aina---

-----------Onazi-------Esiti------------

-------Iwobi----Mikel----Onyekuru----

--------------Nwakaeme------

Ighalo/Iheanacho to come in for Nwakaeme; and Ndidi for Esiti in the 2nd half.

I doubt whether this airport will be viable for passenger travel. It could be useful for cargo operations, cos that will certainly decongest the MMIA.

Icon4s:
Not trying to rubbish your list. But we must understand the purpose for which some of these friendlies are played.

Firstly, it is not every time you get the opportunity to face an Argentine team that has the likes of Leonel Messi, Di Maria and co. Let us have the opportunity of testing our "Oyinbo wall" against these top players. If they can handle Messi, Dybala and Di Maria effectively that could give them the mental strength to face other attackers in the world cup.

We should focus more on exposing our 'A' team more than the fringe players. Only 3 of the whole sqaud have played in the world cup. It basically means over 70% of the 'A' team are green horns as far as facing opponents of that calibre is concerned.

We need our 'A' team to play more together. Thank God there are rooms for 6 substations we can be introducing those fringe players little by little.

So for that Argentina friendly we must start our best.

Victor Moses is out for a month with his hamstring injury. Balogun is also injured too. So, it won't be out of place for Rohr to give Esiti, and Nwakaeme an additional chance to show what they could offer at the WC, if they make the squad.

My team for the Argentina game:

----------------------Ezenwa-------------------------

----Shehu-------Ekong------Awaziem-----Aina------

-----------------Onazi---Esiti----------------

------Iwobi-------Mikel-------Onyekuru----

-----------------Nwakaeme-----------

Then, 2nd half subs could be :
Iheanacho for Nwakaeme
Etebo for Onazi
Alampasu for Ezenwa

Nigeria will play against Argentina in a friendly on Nov 14 in Russia! It's been confirmed by Argentina's FA twitter handle.

Looking forward to that game.

hephem:
The egyptian goal keeper.The guy should be around 45 or so.

Was thinking of Buffon

Ibime:
Buffon if Italy make it

You are right. Buffon was 2nd choice keeper for Italy at France 98.

Away from the Hazard debate :

Here is a pop quiz for y’all: Which player will likely be the “most experienced” player at next year’s World Cup?

Could Osimhen and Tammy Abraham be the Super Eagles front two at the world cup?

They both stand at 6'1'' and 6'4'' respectively, which could be useful during aerial duels with opposing center-halves; and Osimhen is quite pacy too, as evidenced at the last U-17 tournament.

Or should Rohr stick to fielding just one striker?

enomakos:
Gigi buffon

Yeah.
Na typo I made

Once his prison term ends (and if he ain't deported), he better take the next available flight back to Naija. Because with a felony conviction on anyone's record, in the U.S., there is a 99.9% certainty that employers will refuse to offer him any jobs.
