lol

so when exactly is it goin to be in jan now?

waternogetenemy:
Nooooo, Not at all, Nigeria do business in Ghana and UK, USA, Dubai etc.

We will just have separate country and system.

Hausa can now beat themselves to death and behead each other as they deem fit.

Yoruba can get together and share the national budget in parliament, whilst landing each other with resounding slaps and blows.

We igbos want to go and build industry and machines, feed and manage people.

this is a diff ball game you brokeout of a country due to the way u are being treated den still wanna have properties and do business dere like noting happened is it posible?n one of your reasons is that they kill your people ,wat would now touch d heart of d hausas to stop is it coz u hav ur own country now or what exactly?

Whynotthetruth:
1)Why are we loving the Igbo more than they love themselves? Can you cry more than bereaved? What's your headache if they leave and how they survive or die? smh

2) Let's stop celebrating ignorance. If Igbo leave today, they will simply become another new member(16th or so) of ECOWAS countries. ECOWAS treaty allow for FREE ENTRY and EXIT for all member countries including in trade and investment.

3) Property is legal acquisition which can't be taken away at the whims and caprices of hooligans. There are laws which will be made and respected. On disintegration, mode of separation and handover in new nations are discussed and implemented....it may take months or upto a year to conclude such . There are existing legal system guiding such process and issue.

4) Migration can't be stopped because of birth of new countries. Borders are open for all including for any migrant Igbo...by virtue of existing laws which are binding on all.

meaning u still want to do bizness and have properties among dose you hate or hate u,n kill u for no reason pls what d logic it means u would still get the same treatment even wen u a nigerian citizen,or deres a way out?

waternogetenemy:
The problem of Nigeria is not ethnicity but greed.

I, an igbo man happily campaigned for Atiku, since last week. I similarly campaigned for GEJ an Ijaw man.


I dont have a problem with being a Nigeria but i have a problem with a grandmother being beaten to death in kano and then beheaded in front of her own shop, over religious differences.


I have a problem, wen communities live in abject poverty whilst a few men with political influence from the north claim ownership of communities oil wealth.

i have a problem with miscarriage of justice, marginalisation and discrimination. I have a problem wen people get together for the soul purpose of hunting my people down like bushmeat becos of the language they speak.


These are the reasons behind calls for Biafra and not ethnicity.

yeah nice one but you would still come for bizness in nigeria n all d tins
you running away from can still happen so what the point,for me having biafra means you dont want anytin to do with d hausas or yorubas so i dont see y you still need to do business or have properties in nigeria

FROM BEING ATTACKED BY ANGRY MUMS TO CHELSEA’S FIRST-TEAM – THE RISE OF VICTOR MOSES
Nizaar Kinsella
The Blues wing-back is finally having his breakthrough at Stamford Bridge, but his talent was unearthed in the most remarkable circumstances by a youth-team manager
EXCLUSIVE
Victor Moses’s early years in England were not easy, according to his first manager. At 13, he was attacked on the field by a woman for humiliating her son and accused of cheating while playing for “the worst team in the league”. Despite his struggles, though, Tony Loizi was convinced he had found a special player when he welcomed him to Cosmos 90.
Goal 50: The best footballers of 2016
Loizi met Moses when the youngster approached the Tandridge Youth Football League team looking for a game after he had been resettled in England following the religiously-motivated murder of his parents in Nigeria.
The 25-year-old has enjoyed a fantastic rise to become Antonio Conte’s first-choice right wing-back at Chelsea. But it was Loizi who introduced him to the English game after getting the permission of his foster parents to sign him up to play in the youth league just outside of London. The manager was so impressed by him that he still has the documentation of his former player to prove that he discovered the former Wigan winger.
"We were the worst team in the league and he just walked up to us and asked to join the team," Loizi told
Goal . "We watched him play and he was doing back flips and tricks. We all just stood there with our mouths open. I couldn’t believe it, he had a shot harder than a rocket.
"I said, ‘what team do you play for?’ and he said ‘I don’t play for a team', then I replied, ‘you have got to be in an academy?!’ and he said ‘no'. I immediately went to his foster parents' house to sign him up and they told me his story.
"There is a one-in-a-million chance that sort of player comes to an ordinary Sunday league side, it is almost impossible. They are normally snapped up so early, they are in academies before you know it. He came up to us, we didn’t find him, he found us!"
Moses arrived in England when he was 11-years-old and attended a state school in South Norwood before joining Cosmos 90 FC as a 13-year-old for a seven-month period.
Giroud vows to dethrone Alexis
Cosmos 90 ultimately folded after Moses left due to Loizi being unable to continue as the club's manager but he remembers the Nigerian's debut with huge clarity.
"His first game was against Chipstead FC and they beat us 8-1 only a year earlier in the cup," Loizi, who played in Arsenal's academy, added. "My son was due to play in goal but fractured his arm so I put his cousin in goal who was only about two feet tall! I put Moses at centre-half who went to my nephew 'don't worry, I'll look after you'.
"We won 10-1 and Victor scored eight goals from centre-half, Chipstead were one of the best as well, as their first team was semi-professional and all their parents and the manager were calling us cheats.
"They said, 'he is not the right age' and I said, 'look we have the documentation, he is the right age, so tough'. I knew he would dominate as, when I first met him, we put some balls on the halfway line and he was scoring from there - and at only 13-years-old!
"Another moment that I remember was when Victor goes up to the goalkeeper, puts the ball through his legs, turns around chips it back over his head and then beats him again. The kid was in tears as he absolutely humiliated him.
"Then the mother of the child comes on with her handbag and starts hitting him over his head with her handbag as he humiliated him. I said to him after that, it doesn’t matter how good you are, you have got to be humble.
Memphis interested in Everton move
PLAY
/
"He was like Gareth Bale when he plays for Wales. Without Bale, Wales are an ordinary or average side and without Moses, Cosmos 90 FC were worse than ordinary!"
At that age, Moses named Zinedine Zidane and Frank Lampard as his footballing idols. The softly spoken and polite Nigerian became flamboyant and confident as he stepped onto a football pitch. He was a naturally gifted athlete who had the ability to perform the same leaping somersaults that he can do as a 25-year-old and it wasn't long before he drew the attention of London's biggest clubs.
"We weren't the best team so we used to only draw crowds of two men and their dog, but once we got the word out about Victor, we had one hundred people come along, then close to two hundred, including many of my friends," said Loizi.
"Before the game, I would get called up and asked 'is Victor playing?' If I said no, they wouldn’t come down! They only came to watch him as he was so amazing. So many clubs were after him and then Crystal Palace came in. I said to him, ‘look Victor there’s no way I would hold you back' and I asked him to come to Crystal Palace with me.
"I said, 'if you sign for Palace you will get to the first team quicker than at any other clubs' and in the end he chose to stay with them. I remember his first game, which was against Millwall youth and he nearly scored from the halfway line.
"He is a nice kid, we had a great time with him and as soon as he left, we lost a lot of our next few games. Although we eventually went on to win the cup which was, in part, down to Victor giving us confidence.
"They say that one player doesn’t make a difference on his own, but when they are as good as Victor, they do in youth football. He was very helpful to his fellow players, he would always back them up and things like that."
After Moses signed his schoolboy contracts with Palace, he was set up with a place in one of Croydon's best private schools, Whitgift. There, he continued his success at youth level by winning the FA Youth Cup for Whitgift.
Messi has not snubbed Barca contract talks
Grimsby school were blown apart by Moses as he scored all five goals in a 5-0 victory, who were managed by ex-Chelsea star Colin Pates, in the final back in 2005.
Moses went onto sign for Chelsea for £9 million from Wigan Athletic in 2012, but has only now broken into the first team on a regular basis after Conte switched to a 3-4-3 formation.
Conte's use of Moses as a wing-back has led to a five-game winning streak in the league with Chelsea yet to concede in their new formation.
Loizi, who now works as a courier across London, is a Chelsea fan and is delighted with the impact of Moses after breaking through into the Blues's starting XI under Conte.
"I think talent-wise and skill-wise he is up there with Eden Hazard, perhaps he needs further refining. Now, under Conte, he has a role and he carries that out. He has become more disciplined since the early days and Conte's tough approach will be good for him.
"That skill he has, you don’t teach people that, he was doing things that not even an adult was doing. Someone either taught him in Nigeria or he was a complete natural. A lot of the stuff he does now for Chelsea wasn’t much different to when he was with us.
"I am delighted with how he has come on and you can see some of the tactical things he has been taught to do, because when he was a kid he wanted to take the whole team on which I am sure he will still do for Chelsea, from time to time."

He is a Fulani man, who with his comrade captured an Afonja state.

and decided to be called bukola which i guess is a fulani name lol

InyinyaAgbaOku:
Saraki doesn't associate with Yoruba's in any way.
Win win that is frustrating Tinubu and SW, is that one win?

in nigeria as a whole i dont see what the elite do to impact the masses,they all eat and dine together without tinking or looking down,the impact they make is for there own pocket,so frustrating tinubu or the southwest dosent affect the common man on the street

Enuguboy4nsk:
a Fulani from illorin

afonja from ilorin lol

Enuguboy4nsk:
a Fulani from illorin

afonja from ilorin lol

InyinyaAgbaOku:
Does he represent the Yoruba agenda and people?
If they ask Yorubas at heart to come out, you think saraki will do so?

lol but you tag dem afonjas naa so which agenda need again we all wuld also follow saraki it a win/win situation the vice president or the senate dey ar both afonjas

The SK Herkenrode striker is unhappy missing a chance to play for the Falconets at the World Cup but keep hopes alive to represent her country in the future
SK Herkenrode of Belgium striker Valerie Awelewa has expressed her disappointment after missing a chance to represent Nigeria at the Fifa U20 Women's World Cup in Papua New Guinea.
Awelewa, 19, who had made the 30-woman provisional squad for the women youth championship, admitted her dreams to wear the country's colours oot shattered due to the late notice to her University College.
Goal: Tell us about yourself and your family background?
Valerie Awelewa: My name is Valerie Awelewa. I'm 19. I was born and raised in Belgium. My father is Yoruba and my mom is Igbo. I have a younger sister who's 12 and a younger brother who's 10 also a footballer. I have been playing football since I was 10yrs. At the moment, I play for a Belgium-based club SK Herkenrode as a striker.
Goal: Can you share with us your goalscoring performances and achievements in the past two seasons with your club side(s)?
VA : The season before the last: I was playing for FC Halveweg Zonhoven. There were three teams. I used to play for the first team that was playing against clubs all over Belgium. And the second team that only played within our Flemish region. After I played with the second team in the morning, I followed the first team to play another. I had a scoring record going for both leagues. But it's the scoring record for the second team that stood out with 32 goals. And for the first team, it was 19 goals. My last season was with my current club SK Herkenrode. I scored 20 goals in 22 matches. Both of our teams were playing in the same league. Our first team was first and the second team ended in the second position. Our first team moved up to another league. And I maintained to be in the top 5 highest goal scorers in our league. This season, i've scored 15 goals in nine matches.
Goal: How did you secure an invitation and feel your call-up to represent the country?
VA : An ex-Nigerian journalist came to watch one of my matches and was very impressed. He told me I have a shot at playing for Nigeria. So he took me to meet an official of the Nigerian Football Federation when the Super Eagles were playing in Brussels, Belgium. I was very excited because it’s something I have been fantasizing about. I was so happy to get a chance because I would love to represent Nigeria. That's where everything started.
Goal: Why didn’t you honour the call-up to play for Nigeria?
VA : The invitation came here five days before I was to report to camp. If it came here a month earlier my school would've been able to arrange a special program. I am studying Chemistry at the University, so I needed to give the invitation to my School at least a month before I am to report to camp so that they can arrange my program for me but unfortunately the invitation got here four days to the day I am expected to report to camp. My director told me that it’s sudden for any change because all the changes should have been made by mid-September and if I go, then I have to repeat a year because am already doing my lab projects.
Goal: How do you feel missing out on representing Nigeria in Papua New Guinea?
VA : I was very disappointed because I had my bags and everything ready to go but I'm keeping my hopes for the next World Cup. Feel a bit bad but encouraged at the same time. I see pictures of the squad almost every day. And I just feel bad for not being there but I also know that it isn't the end but just the beginning. And I know that God will make a way for me. Of course, they can win the tournament; I believe the coach is experienced and has chosen a lot of talented girls to complete the team. So I'm sure they will perform well.
Goal: How will you feel if given another chance to represent the country at an international level in the future?
VA : It is very important to me getting a chance to play for my country in the future because it's my home country and being able to represent Nigeria in any type of way is an honour to me. I would love to contribute to the Nigerian national team. I hope I will make my family and my country proud. Even though I was born and raised in Belgium. I'm still Nigerian by blood.
Goal: What are your future dreams as a female football player with great potentials and who’s your role model?
VA : I would like to play for a big club. I want to make a name for myself by scoring a lot and setting a record for myself. I would like to be someone that other girls who are passionate about football will look up to. Asisat Oshoala is my role model because of her hunger for the ball. I am too. Her playing is a bit similar to mine and I like her personality.

Biafman:
The self acclaimed shoofiscated ones planned it in a way that if Buhari happens to reject food one day, their fake pastor will become the president, but a huge shock from northerners awaits them should the Daura President one day reject food as the afonjas wished for and planned.

who is the senate president ?

Eastactivist:
Senate president of course...
The Senate president answers to no murrafucker except his mind...
But can you say so for the Vp? Your answer is good as mine...
Besides the man and his fellow afonjas are praying and wishing buhari dies in office so their afonja son will be the president... But the Northerners are too magical for the prayers and wish to come true...
And SS and SE are also praying for buhari to remain hearty, bc we can tolerate buhari but for an afonja, is a no no

I was in owerri 3weeks back and I was ashamed of my country.

Owerri is dirty like Lagos .. one chance criminals taking over Douglas road.
Especially shoprite area.

I was scared to bring out my phone to receive calls in my own country because I was afraid they might walk up to me and snatch my expensive phone away.

Sad

must you call lagos koz i dont ondastand and na dat dirty lagos u won blow abi,u haf blow already at least your village people would buy ur album to bless ur ministry

ArabMopol:
why do afonjas love to attract cheap publicity.... daughter of a celebrity does not make her a celebrate, omotola always love to put her family affair in limelight...Tufiakwa

rip english u never fail to deliver

nice point of view

nice write up but my fellow yoruba and igbo brothers wont wait to start attacking each other.tribalism we create now would surely affect the next generation change begins with me,and by d way afonja is just a name n dosent change anything about my character or personality. #SAYNOTOTRIBALISM
