safarigirl: why do you always sound so bitter? Are you still haunted by the fact that the Black Stars haven't won a trophy in your lifetime and may never win one?
Bitter? what do you expect when you are dealing with a bunch of mumus? I don't tolerate rubbish,huh? whether Ghana wins trophy or does not win trophy won't change the fact that your country will always be our wives. Ghana will always flog naija. that is how it is, that is how it will always be,AMEN!

Theben: Choi! No world cup for him. I wonder how Ghana would cope with this, as he along with Andre Ayew are the most reliable Ghana midfielders.

As for the kwesia asking how the news is Nigerian related, your mental condition has gone beyond the threshold limit, you obviously need to be attended to before it gets too late. This is sport section fool. So many other players have been mentioned, players like Drogba, Toure, Wayama, Messi, Ronaldo etc, none of the countries citizens have come to ask why their players are mentioned on Naija site. Muntari himself should be glad he's noticed here. Foolish Ghanaian angry
Damn, such sh1tty genocidal gay grin depraved deluded monkey

No words to describe this barbaric ape with deep-rooted inferiority complex stuck in a dystonian sh1thole grin

It is not even funny any more

safarigirl: what bloody duty? Where was KP Boateng when Ghana needed him? My dear, if Mikel decides to not play for Nigeria tomorrow, he won't lose anything. Nobody has a duty to do squat! They do it because they want to do it, because of the recognition that comes with it, duty ke? What a joke! No be una been dey insult Mikel those days when e dey make excuses to not play? So tey Tu face go do song for am, yet you say he doesn't add anything to the team. Now that he's playing his heart out, una still dey insult am, will you ever be satisfied?
as a Ghanaian, I believe KP Boateng is a patriot who is committed to the cause of his fatherland. will you leave the guy in peace? we know why he is not able to play every time for Ghana and pray for his continued good health

hahahahaha come ooh heard your minister of defence fainted recently in Abuja, at the sound of artillery fire. has she regained consciousness? roforofo no wonder boko harams are raiding military barracks and raping wives of soldiers in that sh1thole! hahahahahaha I dey laugh oooo



SHOCKING; Nigerian Defense Minister Faints at the Sound of Artillery grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

There was mild drama on on Tuesday as Nigeria's Minister of State for Defence, Erelu Olusola Obada, collapsed and fainted into the hands of military officers on 15th January, 2013, when the deafening sounds of artillery fire reverberated during the celebration of the Armed Forces Remembrance Day in Abuja. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

There was no announcement before the artillery fire rented the air, as this is usual on such an occasion.

A source said the development startled the minister, who slumped, before her military aides jumped to her rescue, she was immediately rushed to a corner for an immediate rehabilitation.

After regaining her composure, Erelu Obada came back to lay a wreath at the Remembrance Arcade, though her hands can still be seen shaking.

Reporters tried to have a chat with her but her aides declined.

ROSSIKE: Dude, I'm not like these other folks that take seriously your illiterate smears. Maybe you should read your own Ghana news on Google to get a feel for what's really happening in your country. The massive power failures, corruption, prostitution, online fraud, robberies etc - all on the rise in Ghana.

You guys should at least be like Kuwait. Yet you're here mincing words with a country with 200 million people to cater for. You really have no shame. At least those ills you mentioned are Nigerian society's way of challenging their leaders to excel. When will Ghanaians wake up from their slumber, cause some political fracas and hold their leaders to account? Like I said for a country of just 20 million to be Africa's second gold exporter after SA, world's largest cocoa exporter, and oil and gas producer, you should be a million miles ahead of Nigeria in terms of living standards. You really have no shame.
ma guy it's obvious you have nothing intelligent to say. It is not in your DNA to ever say anything intelligent. such a modafaking f00000l. even my dog will exhibit more sense than you. what a senseless mor0n

yes, Ghana is ahead of your dustbin country in lifse expectancy, in employment levels, poverty levels, corruption levels, access to electricity, education, clean water. even FIFA ranking! so what did you do with your oil money?
Politics › Re: Can We Compare Ghana To Nigeria by PetroDolla2: 12:27am On Jan 03, 2014
Theben: Ever heard the word analogy? Nigeria is to Ghana as Germany is to Austria. Nigeria is bigger than Ghana in all ramifications. We are only rivals in football and that is where it ends. The only two African country that is near Nigeria in terms development are Egypt and South Africa.

Take away Accra from Ghana, and Ghana will be a local village without civilisation. The Economy of Lagos state is larger than the economy of the entire Ghana. Mind you, lagos does not depend on oil wealth to sustain itself.

Nollywood is larger than every movie industry in Africa. 3rd largest in the world, behind hollywood and bollywood. Nigeria is ranked as the best investment destination in the entire Africa.

I dare say that Ghana will never survive should they be plagued by terrorists. Despite attacks from boko haram insurgents in the north eastern part of Naija, our economy still maintain the same growth rate.

Abeg, it is an abomination to compare Naija with Ghana. Just make further attempt to compare and I'll expose Ghana the more. Trust me
hahahahaha so what are you waiting for? 'expose' Ghana quick quick now. such a m0ron with an IQ of 2. I am waiting for you, dog. by the time I finish with your and your sh1thole you'll feel too ashamed to call yourself a mumugerian.

You are bound to find all sorts of stories in Nigeria compared to a comparative village like Ghana. As for poverty-related suicide, those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.:

''Head of the Sociology Department at the University of Ghana, Dr Dan-Bright Dzorgbo, has stated that the rising case of suicide in Ghana was as a result of social inequality; due to the wide gap between the rich and the poor.''

45% of 170 million people is over 80 million people connected. And you're still comparing your puny selves with Nigeria? Meanwhile even those 15 million people ''remain in perpetual darkness'' due to power cuts according to one Ghanaian politician.

ROSSIKE: Look at this deluded one. You have no shame. Talking garbage about Nigeria that is ten times bigger than Ghana, with ten times more mouths to feed. Of course Ghana should have less problems. Even more, you should be like a Kuwait or Saudi Arabia based on your tiny population and huge resources. But sadly your country is actually a disgrace. With your tiny 20 million population - less than Lagos, you are the world's largest exporter of cocoa, Africa's second biggest gold exporter after South Africa, a major exporter of manganese and iron ore, and now an oil and gas producer. Yet less than half your population is connected to the national electricity grid, with poverty rife throughout the country. Your villages are as backward and neglected as ever. The north of your country is like Somalia. What happened to all the money? The problem with your country is that people like you prefer to propagate the 'Ghana is an angelic country' myth, in order to feel good about yourselves, rather than ask hard questions of your leaders, and what they really do with all the money you make. Stay there comparing yourselves to Nigeria. By the ''criteria'' you listed, you are even more advanced than India, Brazil and most developing states with huge populations. I'm sure India has more bad roads, bad schools and more unelectrified homes and illiterates than Ghana.... But we know where India stands in relation to Ghana, ie more advanced than you. Nigeria is the same. More advanced than you even if you have a more 'satisfied' tiny population. We all know that you should be doing a LOT better considering your tiny population and massive resources. That's what should be concentrating your mind.

Theben: The use of generator would soon be a thing of the past. Besides, can you swear with your life that there are no generator users in Ghana? Is there electricity in every Ghanaian village? You should be ashamed that a state in your so called generator based economy is bigger than your well electrified economy.

Comparing Nigeria with Ghana is like comparing Germany with Austria or Leischetein, Australia with Newzealand, South Africa with Lesotho/Botswana, USA with Mexico.

While the smaller countries admit to the superiority of their bigger neighbours and gain from them economically, Ghanaians arrogance and pride won't allow them to acknowledge the superiority/contribution of big brother to the growth of their economy.

Imagine, these devils pay Ghanaians (Afircans on African soil) 2 dollars a day which translates to 60 dollars a month for 30 days work and pay Chinese workers 976 dollars a month. And some Chinese has the nerve to suggest that China sends its army into Ghana when oppressed Ghanaians start attacking them. What an insult! You see why Africa really needs to focus on economic revival and military development? They believe that they can get away with whatever they do because they have a strong army. We Africans- no matter what part of the world we currently find ourselves- should really start seriously thinking of how to develop our continent and in no time, start acting on it. The influx of Chinese, Lebanese and other foreign nationals does not bode well for the continent. These people will only end up ruling Africa and making us second class citizens. AFRICANS NEED TO WAKE UP, BOND TOGETHER AND BEGIN TO VALUE THEIR BLACK BRETHREN OVER ANY OTHER RACE. Call it racism if you like. I call it UNITY THAT BRINGS PROGRESS.

'Child-witches' of Nigeria seek refuge grin

Mary is a pretty five-year-old girl with big brown eyes and a father who kicked her out onto the streets in one of the most dangerous parts of the world. grin Her crime: the local priest had denounced her as a witch and blamed her "evil powers" for causing her mother's death.

By David Harrison

Ostracised, vulnerable and frightened, she wandered the streets in south-eastern Nigeria, sleeping rough, struggling to stay alive.
Mary was found by a British charity worker and today lives at a refuge in Akwa Ibom province with 150 other children who have been branded witches, blamed for all their family's woes, and abandoned. Before being pushed out of their homes many were beaten or slashed with knives, thrown onto fires, or had acid poured over them as a punishment or in an attempt to make them "confess" to being possessed. In one horrific case, a young girl called Uma had a three-inch nail driven into her skull.
Yet Mary and the others at the shelter are the lucky ones for they, at least, are alive. Many of those branded "child-witches" are murdered - hacked to death with machetes, poisoned, drowned, or buried alive in an attempt to drive Satan out of their soul.
The devil's children are "identified" by powerful religious leaders at extremist churches where Christianity and traditional beliefs have combined to produce a deep-rooted belief in, and fear of, witchcraft. The priests spread the message that child-witches bring destruction, disease and death to their families. And they say that, once possessed, children can cast spells and contaminate others.
The religious leaders offer help to the families whose children are named as witches, but at a price. The churches run exorcism, or "deliverance", evenings where the pastors attempt to drive out the evil spirits. Only they have the power to cleanse the child of evil spirits, they say. The exorcism costs the families up to a year's income.
During the "deliverance" ceremonies, the children are shaken violently, dragged around the room and have potions poured into their eyes. The children look terrified. The parents look on, praying that the child will be cleansed. If the ritual fails, they know their children will have to be sent away, or killed. Many are held in churches, often on chains, and deprived of food until they "confess" to being a witch.
The ceremonies are highly lucrative for the spiritual leaders many of whom enjoy a lifestyle of large homes, expensive cars and designer clothes.
Ten years ago there were few cases of children stigmatised by witchcraft. But since then the numbers have grown at an alarming rate and have reached an estimated 15,000 in Akwa Ibom state alone.
Some Nigerians blame the increase on one of the country's wealthiest and most influential evangelical preachers. Helen Ukpabio, a self-styled prophetess of the 150-branch Liberty Gospel Church, made a film, widely distributed, called End of the Wicked. It tells, in graphic detail, how children become possessed and shows them being inducted into covens, eating human flesh and bringing chaos and death to their families and communities.
Mrs Ukpabio, a mother of three, also wrote a popular book which tells parents how to identify a witch. For children under two years old, she says, the key signs of a servant of Satan are crying and screaming in the night, high fever and worsening health - symptoms that can be found among many children in an impoverished region with poor health care.
The preacher says that her work is true to the Bible and is a means of spreading God's word. "Witchcraft is a problem all over Nigeria and someone with a gift like me can never hurt anybody," she says. "Every Nigerian wants to watch my movies." She denies that her teachings and films could encourage child abuse.
One British charity worker is fighting to help the children stigmatised as witches. Gary Foxcroft, 29, programme director for the UK charity Stepping Stones, Nigeria, first came to the country in 2003 to research the oil industry for his masters degree. But he was so shocked when he learned about the children's plight that he decided to help raise money for the refuge - the Child Rights and Rehabilitation Network (Crarn) - and try to persuade the parents to take their children back. He has also helped to build a school for the children who are refused places at local schools.
"Any Christian would look at the situation that is going on here and just be absolutely outraged that they were using the teachings of Jesus Christ to exploit and abuse innocent children," says Mr Foxcroft whose expose of what he describes as "an absolute scandal" will be screened in a Channel 4 documentary on Wednesday.
The Niger Delta is an oil-rich region but the wealth does not reach the people who live there. The locals blame their hardship on the Devil but international analysts point to the oil industry's large-scale contamination of air, land and sea.
In the documentary, the charity worker visits one of the pastors, a man who calls himself "the Bishop" and who claims to be able to drive evil spirits out of "possessed" children. At his church in Ibaka, the Bishop pours a homemade substance called African mercury, a potion of pure alcohol and his own blood, into the eyes of a young boy lying on a table. "I want this poison destroyer to destroy the witch right now, in Jesus' name," he says.
The priest charges £170 - in a country where millions of people are forced to live on less than £1 a day - for "treating" a child every night for two weeks, and holds them captive until the bill is paid.
He has recently refined his techniques for dealing with child witches. "I killed up to 110 people who were identified as being a witch," he says. He claims there are 2.3million "witches and wizards" in Akwa Ibom province alone.
The children's shelter was started five years ago when Sam Itauma, a Nigerian, opened his house to four youngsters accused of witchcraft. Today, he and his five staff are caring for 150 youngsters. "Every day, five or six children are branded as witches," he says "Once a child has been stigmatised as a witch, it is very difficult for someone to accept that child back. If they go out from this community... there is a lot of attacks, assault and abuses on the children." Children often arrive at the shelter with severe wounds, but few clinics or hospitals will treat a child believed to be a witch.
"Christianity in the Niger Delta is seriously questionable, putting a traditional religion together with Christian religion - and it makes nonsense out of it," he says. "If you are not rich and don't have anything to eat, you look to blame someone. And if you don't get anything, you blame it on the witches."
Christians have been in Nigeria since the 19th century and the Niger Delta area claims to have more churches per square mile than any other place on Earth. The vast majority of the country's 60 million Christians are moderate, but an influx of Pentecostals over the past 50 years has led some churches to be dominated by extremist views. Five years ago, the Nigerian government passed a Child Rights Act, which made abuse illegal, but not every state has adopted it.
At the refuge, a baby girl called Utibe and her five-year-old sister, Utitofong, are dumped at the gate by their mother because a "prophet" told her that Utitofong was a witch and had passed the spell to her sister. The mother, who spent four months' salary on an unsuccessful exorcism, left them at the centre because she feared they would be killed. The police are called but locals offer them no help.
Mr Itauma goes to the village to try and convince the locals to accept the daughters' return, but the older girl is threatened by a man with a machete. "Get away from our food - I'll kill you," he shouts. Utibe is allowed to stay, but the older girl has to go back to the refuge.
At the end of the film, Mr Foxcroft and all the "child-witches" stage a demonstration at the Governor's residence in the state capital, Uyo, and urge him to adopt the Child Rights Act." After four hours the Governor comes out and says the Act will be adopted. It has since been adopted, but so far not a single pastor has been convicted of any offence. And the rescue centre still takes in up to 10 children a week.
Mr Foxcroft took Mary back to her village where he was told that her father left a year ago to find work in Cameroon. A cousin says: "She is a witch, we don't want her here." Mary is now back at the refuge.

grin Fuckeduppedness I guess he was on his way to Abuja, the worldwide headquarters of witches and wizards! grin

Witches and Wizards Association of Nigeria deploy 500 members to Abuja grin grin grin
http://news2.onlinenigeria.com/latest-addition/96806-witches-and-wizards-association-of-nigeria-deploy-500-members-to-abuja.html

The Witches and Wizards Association of Nigeria (WITZAN), has deployed 500 witches to Abuja and other parts of Ahead of Nigeria to prevent any tragic occurrence and ensure peaceful inauguration on May 29.

According to its national co-ordinator, Dr Okhue Iboi, the decision was taken after an emergency meeting at Zuma rock, Niger State. WITZAN also warned President Goodluck Jonathan to take adequate security as bad people and disgruntled politicians are planning to cause problems.

Iboi, however, disclosed that the nation would soon have a respite from the people currently throwing bombs all over the places as they would be exposed: “We are going to expose those sponsoring bomb blasts in the country after May 29. They have been caged already. We are going to use our power to cause them to come out and confess their misdeeds. Nigerians would be surprised at how the saboteurs would be exposed.”

He said it was revealed to the witches as far back as last year that no other candidate except Jonathan would rule the nation. grin The association which also predicted the failure of both former military president Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida and vice president Atiku Abubakar in their presidential quests also disclosed that Jonathan would serve his four-year tenure at the end of which Nigerians would be begging him to go for another term because he has been chosen by God to lead the nation.

Iboi, however, warned Jonathan to beware of sycophants, while warning the incoming ministers and advisers to co-operate with the president and discharge their duties with dedication. The witches warned former Head of State, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) to stop wasting his time pursuing the presidency:

“Buhari should stop wasting his time because his time is past. He can never rule the nation again. His time is gone.” The incoming National Assembly will deliver. This is the time Nigerians will know that they have real legislators.
“Some people look at us as if we are evil minded people. Not all witches are bad. Our own type of witchcraft is progressive. We are willing to intervene in the affairs of the country anytime the government decides to seek our counsel. We have the solutions to bring lasting peace to the country. Witches and wizards in the country are ready to help restore Nigeria’s lost glory.

“We saw June 12 crisis long before it happened and we warned the late Chief M.K.O. Abiola but he ignored us. Abiola would have been Nigeria’s president but some of us decided to punish him over the role he played in scuttling the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo presidential ambition. We warned him not to waste his time and life. This was reported in some national dailies. We also dealt with the late General Sani Abacha for the execution of the late Ken Saro-Wiwa.” grin

As you can see, Mr petrodollar Ghana, you're nowhere near Nigeria's level.
Look, from where I sit you sound very very foolish and childish. You know why? you don't assess an airport based solely on the size or 'beauty' of its terminal buildings.

When I am looking at an airport facility, the priority for me is how functional the airport itself. are the runways in good shape? do the lights work all the time- for example will there be an outage while my plane is landing?http://saharareporters.com/news-page/ongoing-power-outage-murtala-muhammed-international-airport-lagos-paralyzes-flight-operati how efficient are the officials-customs, immigration etc- will they shake me down for a bribe or give me hard time because they are looking for tips? https://www.nairaland.com/751213/customs-checks-murtala-muhammad-airport/1How comfortable and stress-free are the arrival and departure lounges? the air conditioning work? can I safely leave the airport no matter what time I arrive? In general, do facilities and equipment like conveyor belts work?- can I get all my luggage in one piece, without some 'rat' making a hole in my bags and making away with some of my stuffs-something I have personally experienced at the Lagos airport on a flight from London some year ago.

for example, no one wants to be at an airport where the roof leaks no matter how fanciful the terminal buildings look like,huh? https://www.nairaland.com/1544984/why-mmia-terminal-roof-leaks#20028537and you know you are in trouble when foreign airlines start complaining about facilities at your airport, no matter how 'beautiful or glamorous' the terminal building looks,huh [url][https://www.nairaland.com/568611/foreign-airlines-decry-decay-lagos/url]

naija noni: Bro its result that matters at d end.
You say italy should have scored 6 goals against nigeria.
Same way nigeria should have scored 6 goals against spain and 6 goals against uruguay.
We dominated created more chances than uruguay and spain but lost.
Same way italy created more chances against nigeria and still drew.
At d end of d day its d result that mattered not how many chances italy missed against nigeria or how many chances nigeria missed against uruguay and spain.
We've played FOUR top teams(spain,uruguay,italy,Ivory coast) in two YEARS and lost just two matches.

But ghana has played only ONE "OKAY" team in two years and still lost 8 MATCHES(egypt arent EVEN such a top team compared with any of d four top teams nigeria has played).

Compare that.
We shouldnt even be talking.
MUMU-in-Chief cool

naija noni: When i say we have top strikers, its compared to ghana.
A few african countries MIGHT have more top strikers than nigeria.


Last season NO ghanaian player in any TOP FLIGHT league in europe scored goals in double figures(10 goals and above).
Ghana's highest scorer in europe last season was Andre Ayew with 9 goals.
But i can list about 6 nigerian players that scored goals in double figures.
You always have to compare with Ghana,huh? I understand your stvpidity sha. its in your DNA to be stvpid,huh? modafaka
