Jman06:PROBLEMS LIKE TERRORISM, SUICIDE, CORRUPTION ETC WILL NOT BE SOLVED WITTOUTH THESE COURSES YOU UNDERRATE SO MUCH. IN FACT, WE ARE IN URGENT NEED OF SUCH COURSES. TAKE TERRORISM THIS PROBLEM IS ROOTED IN HISTORY, RELIGION OUR POLITICAL LEADERS ETC. THESE COURSES OFFER A LOT OF THINGS WE NEED URGENTLY. SOCIOLOGY IS BADLY NEEDED URGENTLY. I MEAN IMMEDIATELY. WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW HUMAN SOCIETY AND CULTURE FUNCTIONS. |
MosesBlack:I think the western world has a gyrocentric ideology. Just relegating anything make to the background |
TheSuperNerd:We struggle when we meet teams with a strong midfield. Showed against morocco, portugal Dr congo. We need better midfielders who can cope with strong midfields like that. Dr congo too physical and intensive, morocco too tactical, portugal too skillful and technical. We should try onuche ogbelu in midfield. Other natural midfielders. We need natural midfielders. I know the issue football starts and ends in the top 5 leagues of Europe so it's stupid to look there. Anyway we should just get midfielders anyhow. There is the one a guy in Germany and other foreign born. Also Ebenezer akinsanmiro and I hope victor eletu gets his club career going. Iwobi simply gets ineffective and arrested when he meets a mature midfield. We need to increase our midfield options |
Fuckyoumod:So buying food for a girl in a restaurant is sex. You are a potential rapist. I am a guy and I am saying it. You are a potential rapist. You will rape any girl that sets foot in your house within 5 minutes. You bought the food and took her to the restaurant out of your own volition. She did not force you. Mr rape rape |
Samantha125:Yes, as a man i support you. The girl did not even force him to pay for things on the date. He could have spent within his means. Must every girl you take on a date have sex with you. We guys are funny. First it was every girl that visits us must give us sex. Now it has graduated to every girl we take on a date must give us sex. Its funny. I think maybe a lot of guys have to learn how to relate with ladies. Know when a lady is really interested in them, how to make ladies like them etc. instead of seeing any acquaintance with a lady as an opportunity for sex. It sounds seriously desperate |
Vanguard News Reps pass state police bill as constitution amendment gains momentum Reps pass state police bill as constitution amendment gains momentum By Gift ChapiOdekina, Abuja The House of Representatives on Thursday passed a landmark constitutional amendment bill to establish state police nationwide, marking a significant milestone in Nigeria’s decades-long debate over decentralising policing and strengthening internal security. The bill, titled “A Bill for an Act to Alter the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 to Provide for the Establishment of State Police and for Related Matters (Sixth Alteration) Bill, 2026,” was approved during consideration at the Committee of the Whole, presided over by Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas. Voting commenced after the Deputy Speaker and Chairman of the House Committee on Constitution Review, Hon. Benjamin Kalu, presented the report on the proposal and canvassed support from lawmakers, stressing the need for a more decentralised policing framework to effectively address the country’s growing security challenges. The exercise was conducted manually, with members raising their hands to indicate their positions. At the end of the voting, 289 lawmakers voted in support of the bill, one member abstained, while none voted against it, reflecting overwhelming bipartisan backing for the far-reaching reform. The proposed amendment seeks to fundamentally restructure Nigeria’s policing architecture by creating both Federal and State Police formations. One of the bill’s key provisions amends Section 214 of the 1999 Constitution to formally establish the Federal Police and the State Police. Under the proposal, the National Assembly would be empowered to prescribe the structure, organisation, administration and powers of the Federal Police, while also providing the legal framework and minimum standards for the establishment and operation of state police services. The bill stipulates that no state police formation shall commence operations unless it is established by a law enacted by the relevant State House of Assembly and certified as complying with national minimum standards prescribed by an Act of the National Assembly. It further provides that until a state police force becomes operational, the Federal Police shall continue to exercise policing powers and responsibilities within such states. In a bid to preserve the autonomy of state police formations and prevent undue federal interference, the bill limits federal intervention in states’ internal security affairs. Under the proposal, the Federal Police may intervene only where there is a complete breakdown of law and order, upon the request of a governor or where a state police force becomes unable to function due to administrative, financial or other operational challenges. The amendment also proposes significant changes to the police’s appointment and command structure. Related News Senate calls for State Police, tightens security measures over rising insecurity State Police Bill scales second reading at Senate June 12: South-West’s democratic journey, gains and challenges Under the amended Section 215 of the Constitution, the Inspector-General of Police would be appointed by the President on the advice of the Nigeria Police Council from among serving members of the Federal Police, subject to confirmation by the National Assembly. Similarly, a State Commissioner of Police would be appointed by a governor on the advice of the Nigeria Police Council from among serving officers of the State Police, subject to confirmation by the respective State House of Assembly. The bill empowers governors to issue lawful directives to State Commissioners of Police on matters relating to public safety and the maintenance of law and order. However, where a commissioner considers such directives unlawful or inconsistent with accepted policing standards, the matter may be referred to the Nigeria Police Council, whose decision shall be final. The proposal also amends Section 84 of the Constitution by replacing references to the “National Police Council and the Federal Police Service Commission” with the “Nigeria Police Council and the Police Service Commission.” The passage of the bill by the House represents one of the most far-reaching security reforms contemplated since the return to democratic rule in 1999 and is expected to rekindle nationwide debate on issues relating to funding, accountability, operational control and safeguards against abuse. With the House’s approval, the constitutional amendment bill will now proceed to the Senate for concurrence. Thereafter, it must secure the endorsement of at least two-thirds of the State Houses of Assembly and receive presidential assent before becoming part of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If eventually enacted, the legislation would usher in a new era of multi-layered policing in Nigeria and could redefine the country’s approach to tackling banditry, terrorism, kidnapping and other forms of violent crimes through a more localised security architecture.

ThunderFireAgba:If we are going to loose, it should be against a team like portugal or some great European or South American team. We were struggling against small teams before he took over |
TheSuperNerd:Our coach should please use chrisantus uche in our next friendly and see how he will play. I hope he gets a good club where he plays regularly next season. |
Goke7:I'm fact we should advise our young footballers not to have anything to do with any woman for any reason romantically. Infact, if a woman says she likes them they should report her for sexual harassment so as to beat them to their game. They should stay clear of any woman. |
See Panda7:I support pukkslo. A man with many options can walk out of a relationship even if he is offered sex. It is when a man lacks options that a woman can hold him to ransome. I don't get it, have you experienced a woman's true love before. Has a woman begged you for sex before. Have you told a lady she is ugly and rejected her and yet she came back. Please as a man try and have options so you don't spend half of your salary on one silly girlfriend. Women need commitment. Getting sex is easy for them but to get a man that wants to stay after sex is not easy. Anyway, a man with no options will want to stick around after sex not really because of true love but because he has not had a girlfriend in 5 years and he had better stay with the only pissy he has. A man with options can easily go for the best. He does not have to stoop so low or go for an evening newspaper just to get laif |
Seeplusplus:See I think the military were reluctant to hand over power to civilians because they knew there were a lot of separatist groups in the country. The military must have being clamping down on all these insurgency and seoeratism. Notice that since the civilians took over in 1999 insurgency, seperatists etc have being on the rise. Also proliferation of weapons. From nigerbdetka, massob now to Boko haram. Insurgency is neither good or bad but it has to be well managed or it can bring a country down. I think at least the military guaranteed security even if they did bad things. They guaranteed security and unity and limited the influence of insurgents. In fact, the military came in after or at the start of the Nigerian civil war in order to stabilize things. |
minfelix:All said and done, we are i think less than 20 years away from an African team wining the world cup. Cameroon broke the psychological barrier in 1990 Morocco broke another psychological barrier in 2022. So what is next After semifinal it is final. We just need an organized African team without the usual administrative problems and it is possible. The fact that football is a team sport gives African teams a fighting chance. As long as your players are at least above average. Like the 65% in quality then you can win. You only need 2 to 5 world class players to win the world cup. You dont need 11 players in Real Madrid and Barcelona. Just 3 superstars and players in average teams in the top 5 leagues of Europe and players in Greece, Turkey, Belgium, Portugal and even a good African league like South Africa. With that, an African team can win the world cup. Most African teams are like that anyway. It will be an upset manner. Like greece wining the euro in 2004 or denmark also winning the Euro. I HOPE PRAY AND BELIEVE IT WILL BE NIGERIA. |
semid4lyfe:This umpatianec. This impatience. It will work if he has a coach that is patient with him and he is shielded from the English media. He dies not acore or assist in 5 matches and the nest thing is to call him a flop. He needs a coach who will disagree with all that. By his second season, he will pickup. At the same time, the coach or staff will work in any weaknesses in his game. He is only 18 and so why the hurry. A lot of great players were just ok at that age. As long as the coaching staff stand by him he will be okay. He plays a bad game and the coach insists he played well and fields him in the next game. |
Judaskwaku:Please we Christians need to gather and pray about the insecurity in the country. This is very very very urgent. The Bible says what we bind on earth is bound in heaven. We should not wait till terrorists blow up redemption camp or their mainland bridge. We should pray now. We need to organize prayer conference for the nation. Please this is urgent |
Kalulu44:A more vivid example. Ojukwu the leader of the igbo during the civil war. His father was one of the richest men in Nigeria. He joined the Nigerian army just to discover himself and have his identity |
Kalulu44:Things like this can happen. When someone is born into affluence it can seem like a trap. I don't know how to say it. But your whole life is controlled and you don't get to discover yourself. Even davido had to break from his parents and follow his music career |
Samantha125:What you are saying is good but.....at least women should endeavour to have children in order to avoid population decline. This has become a problem in the western world as they dont give birth to children and their nation or race is aging and practically dying out. See, if logically women dont give birth to children the human race will die out so the freedom of women movement needs some ammendment before some races or even the human race goes extinct. Now, mariage is not needed for children. Once women have money they can just find a man to impregenate them and if he is stressing them out, tell the man to get out of their life. that is the importance of you women. Female emmancipation in trying to tell women not to be interested in having children is making nations go extinct. That is another problem on its own. In Judges 21 in the bible a tribe of Israel ran out of women and they had to get women to give birth or else, they would have become extinct. Following a tragic civil war, the tribe of Benjamin was nearly wiped out, leaving roughly 600 surviving men but no women. Because the other tribes of Israel had previously taken a vow not to let any Benjaminites marry their daughters, they scrambled to find wives for the men so the tribe would not face extinction.To solve this, Israelite forces destroyed the town of Jabesh-gilead for failing to join the war, sparing 400 young virgin women to be wives |
TheSuperNerd:Wait...I suspect benjy can play in midfield. He fundamentally has a footballing brain |
soetanoreoluwa:Wow!!!! Continental football is coming back to ibadan. Winderful. Remember when shooting got into African club final in 1996. Ajibade babalade and co |
Eastcoastboy:Anything journalism is valuable. Society will even collapse withoyt journalist. See it's not just the knowledge it's the way you apply it and how things work out. Even now Nigerians badly need historianns |
SmartyPants:Well, it depends. If it is an engineering or IT firm the engineering graduate will be preferred. I mean that's a science job and do if mtn needs network engineers a 2 1 in engineering will be preferred. They need someone to do technological stuff for them. Get it. It is how what you know can be used by the organization not just the fact that you got first class |
Namaster:Well well. With the way terrorists want to destroy the country political scientists are badly needed. Also psychologists. Most people don't even understand tsuch personality issues like introversion, extroversion etc. also the issue of not imparting knowledge well is solved by applying psychology to education. It's not just acquiring knowledge but how you use it. |
TheSuperNerd:Sunday oliseh for Wilfred ndidi. Then Stephen keshi or taribo West for william trust ekong Celestine babayaro for elderson ehjiejile |
TheSuperNerd:Maybe okocha was born in the wrong era. He played football in a time where tactical discipline, statistics and science and end product were becoming part of football. The strange thing about okocha is he will make teams like. 1. The 1970 world cup Brazilian tram. 2. The 1982 world cup Brazilian teams. 3. In fact, the Brazilian teams of the peel era. 4. The 1970s dutch national team. 5. Generally any European team they plays with flair before 1990. He will get into such teams and be more appreciated than he was. That it. Okocha is perhaps the most skillful footballer Africa has ever produced. His skills match up to that of those great Brazilians like oele, jarzinho, yes as skillful as garincha. Brazilians will love this style of play |
voortrekker966:I get you. The real issue is that we have highly advanced brains with a backward 10000 year old biology. So we may have advanced brains that tell us to just be friends with the opposite sex but our crude biological sex drive and mating instinct is still part of our biological makeup so that conflict is still there. I hope you get it |
Cutezt:I totally agree with you. We Yoruba, igbo and people in the southern part of Nigeria are not actively speaking out against terrorism. This is a very selfish and myopic attitude. If you tell people in the South to campaign against terrorism they won't care. It has not dawned on us in the South that terrorism is a matter of if and not when. It's as if people in northern or central Nigeria that are dying are not human beings. The attitude is irritating |
TheSuperNerd:I WISH MOROCCO A BAD WORLD CUP AND I AM NOT SUPPORTING THEM FOR THIS WORLD CUP. SEE IF I AM SENEGAL I WILL NOT RETURN THAT TROPHY AND IN ANGER WONT MIND PULLING OUT OF CAF. YES. I WONT BLAME SENEGAL IF THEY PULLED OUT OF CAF. MOROCCO NEEDS TO STOP HOLDING AFRICAN FOOTBALL TO RANSOM JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE MONEY. MAYBE SOMEONE SHOULD REPORT THEM TO FIFA. MAYBE LIKE A GROUP WITHIN CAF. |
TheSuperNerd:LA LIGA IS VERY VERY COMPETITIVE THIS SEASON. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TEAM THAT IS 7TH AND THE TEAM THAT IS 19TH IS ONLY 8 POINTS. ITS STUNNING. I WAS STUNNED WHEN I SAW THE COMPETIION. OUTSIDE REAL MADRID AND BARCA TOPPING THE LEAGUE FREQUENTLY THE COMPETION IS INTENSE FOR THE OTHER PLACES. ITS ACTUALLY MORE COMPETITIVE THAN I MYSELF THOUGHT |
I'm MetalJigsaw:In the first place there is nothing even important about women no matter how beautiful they are. They are at only useful for having children. Even the sex is overrated. So one does not even need women for anything. Even self esteem. Women are just normal human beings. So why should a man bother himself with female attention. It's nonsense jo |
elyte89:With all the great talent morocco had they needed penalties to beat us. We are also trying to get our own foreign born. First not all of them will play for us. Secondly not all of them are that good or excellent. Some of them are just average. Also our home grown talents are coming up nicely. So I don't get it. |
TheSuperNerd:For the sake of God I want arsenal to win the league and the champions league this season. The question is do they have the mental strength. Yes the winning mentality. It's at this stage we sekerate the men from the boys. Arsenal need to develop the winning mentality every big team has. I believe. |
Sadiq Umar scores the winning goal for Valencia today |

Solid lineup.
