Same Russia will likely ban Nigeria from the competition due to genocide. Nigeria is a disgrace among nations.
There is nothing like genocide in Nigeria.
Forget the propaganda from United States.

This Russia no like peace,they just want vawulence everywhere. This news sef go give FIFA president migraine, they will start wooing those countries not to accept the invitation .
FIFA has no worries, they will just ban any country that participate in such World Cup after issuing a warning. Russia should just call the competition another name which will be better

..they ban Russia for attacking Ukraine and killing innocent people in Ukraine..they have been begging Putin to stop the war but he refused.,.Putin wants to take over some Ukraine lands and territory
it has nothing to do with football....people also see the attack by Israel on gaza as unfair.... Israel was still allowed to play in the qualifiers .....my point is that FIFA should not meddle in politics

And how many back doors is Nigeria planning to use to get to a World Cup, exactly? Come on, man… leave those escape hatches for teams like Madagascar, DR Congo, Angola, Zambia — not for a country that won’t stop calling itself a “football powerhouse.”

Let’s rewind for a moment.

First, Eritrea pulled out of the qualifiers, which shifted the whole table and conveniently pushed Nigeria into the “best second-placed” conversation. That alone was an unexpected shortcut falling right into your laps. Yet somehow, that still wasn’t enough.

Then we got to the game against DR Congo. The officiating in that match had everyone talking — plenty of decisions looked strangely generous to Nigeria, and even with all that, qualification still didn’t happen.

And on top of that, on another thread, someone was claiming that if DR Congo didn’t qualify, FIFA would magically “call Nigeria” to fill some imaginary tenth African slot. All of this just shows the same pattern — this sense of entitlement, like Nigeria must be at the World Cup one way or another, even if it means hoping for technicalities or loopholes that don't exist.

So my brother, abeg — talking about Russia organising some unofficial, non-FIFA tournament shouldn’t be exciting anybody. If it isn’t recognised or taken seriously internationally, who exactly is supposed to care?

Stop this sense of entitlement. Nigeria didn’t make it to the World Cup — simple. No shortcuts, no fantasies, no excuses. Just accept it and move on.

I don't see that happening because FIFA wouldn't want anything distracting them from making their money.

Can you please tell me the good thing to say about a country, where people are paying taxes to bandits and terrorists? a country where bandits are displaying guns and money on tik tok videos, a country where her laws are not supreme shariah law Vs Nigeria's laws, a country with vast natural resources, yet electricity and pipe borne water remains a luxury? A country where even the president can't visit any hospital for his health issues. A country where cows are valuable than human lives?
Russia is at war with Ukraine, is Nigeria at war? Can you boldly say this prayer?
God let my life be exactly the way my country Nigeria is.

Then you were viewing it in a documentary, now we are viewing it live, both the killings and mass burials. Guess you were denied visa while trying to flee from the country. At this pace i only hope it doesn't get to you and your household.

I stand by what I said back then, as well as my view about the insurgence in Nigeria today… yes, it is the west funding and arming the terrorists and anyone would be demonic to say it’s a genocide against Christians, while indeed it’s an orchestrated killings targeted at Nigeria as one their satanic interests establishments! Stop being biased and unfair to your fellow citizens, we all know most of the victims are not Christians!

I never ever deny that Christians are among the victims of these satanic terrorist cults, and I don’t deny the havoc they’re wrecking all over the place, but I insist that all religious groups are equally victimised and it’s unfair on the other casualties if you keep labelling these atrocious and barbaric attacks as ‘Christian genocide’!
