BlueRayDick:
You know nothing bro.

Nobody uses $1.2 million to build a standard stadium like the one you see in European countries and even standard national stadiums of Africa.

I had to lecture you first that the program under which the funds were disbursed is designed for the growth of local talents and grassroot football.

That means if u are using the funds for infrastrure they are expecting you to build a mini stadium like campos mini stadium on Lagos Island (see attached Pix). Nobody is expecting u to build old Trafford or Emirates stadium with $1.2m like you ignorantly assumed when you were asking if it's $1.2m they use to build stadiums in Italy.

Our football Administrators messed up by presenting that crappy field they call stadium in Kebbi as evidence of what $1.2m can build In Nigeria. You also messed up by accusing FIFA of real easing paltry sum when you obviously had no idea about how the money came to being released and the use for which funds is meant for.

TemporaryHansel:
I think $300k or less should easily build the mini stadium in the pic you uploaded. The thing missing from that one NFF built is the stands.

I saw some posts from administrators at NFF claiming they did some underground stuff and other installations that were very expensive hence why the project didn't go further, that's why I was previously defending them. Believing any agency in this country is always risky.

BlueRayDick:
The fact is NFF is a corrupt entity like most Nigerian government agancy. There's no way $1.2m judiciously spent will give you that Kebbi stadium. picture they uploaded. Funny thing is labor is very cheap in a state like Kebbi. If they spent half of the budget, we should be seeing picture of a mini stadium better than Lagos Campos Mini stadium.

How much dem buy astro turf? How much dem buy the paint used to draw lines on the pitch and how much dem use buy goal posts & the few seats on the stand?

It's good you have now realized defending a Nigerian government agency is risky and exposes you to ridicule when facts are unveiled

TemporaryHansel:
They did something in kebbi na. Have you seen the one in Delta state? Same $1.2m. they just cleared the site, they didn't put any single structure.



Yeah @bolded.

Things are actually getting cheaper.

TemporaryHansel:
Tinubu should leave the naira/$ rate how it is now abeg. It's perfect at this rate, it shouldn't go lower than this.

raumdeuter:
So when will you guys give kudos and mention Tinubu when things are getting cheaper abi na only when things get expensive that you remember Tinubu

BlueRayDick:
Na people wey dey claim "things are getting cheaper" know where they are buying it.

When price for bag of rice dropped we mentioned it here with evidence.

The people claiming things are getting cheaper should mention what the "things" are and show evidence. Or better still, the supporters of government should have boldly mention those things that are getting cheaper and we will enter market to confirm the genuineness of such claim.

For all I know, transport fare has not dropped because PMS price was jacked up few weeks ago ; and so is the price of so many things that have direct connection with cost of transport.

Emaprince was right
Elder will just drop topics and be looking for who to engage him in baseless arguments

Dayo wey dey USA dey enjoy good governance dey talk about things getting cheaper here.

Beacuse a lot of people have chosen to cry in private, but go against any one speaking ill of the govt in public, as though things are better, does not make it true.

Do people not think about the possibility of being watched when they do shit in hotels?

One of my mentees who works at a hotel once told me they see everything in the rooms.

Prior to getting that information, I've always thought of the possibility. Because I do see CCTV cameras at the lobby and reservation area, I had the thought that: if this people are watching what's going on here, there's a possibility they're also seeing what's going on in the private rooms. Especially given the Nigerian context, you might be enjoying yourself not knowing you're giving other people content to watch.

That’s why its important to put up good performances in such matches. You never know who’s scouting your matches

BlueRayDick:
Why is it that artisans just feel they can call you (their customer) asking for financial assistance just like that?

Like they don't understand the fact that for one to be patronizing them out of hundreds or thousands of fellow artisans in the same city is enough favor. I call you for a job, pay you for whatever fee you charge and may even lose some money to you through inflated material costs they procured.

Why will you then feel I should be the one you will call when you run into financial issues? Who says I don't have my own financial responsibilities I've not finished dealing with? 🤷‍♂️

Dry cleaner will call you to borrow money to complete his shop rent, mechanic will call to borrow money to add to house rent, generator repairer will say he needs money to complete his child's school fees in a private school, etc 🤦‍♂️

please what is the most reliable way to ship a package from lagos to ekiti

was thinking of GIG but would like your input

package has some delicate stuff inside and in particular there is a tee square that cannot fit completely in the box

BlueRayDick:
Na why I ask him and the person that said "things are getting cheaper" to mention the name of those things" and let us confirm when we sef enter market.

Every end of month I drive my wife to the market where she buys foodstuff and groceries in bulk to stock the house.

So make dem tell us the things wey the price Don go down so we go verify in real time, no be "dem say dem say".
