Nigeria can't host an AFCON in terms of what? Finance or what?

Corruption, Lack of facilities and basic social amenities.
The country is in a mess. Imagine the country hasn't hosted a nation's cup since year 2000. The current CAF president has been pressuring the Nigerian Government to host all to no avail

Spare me the sanctimony and show me where it is stated as a criteria

NasirIbnLaAhad:
Unfortunately for you, it is. But I understand you're used to chaos and disorganization in that country, so I'm not surprised you'll scoff at the suggestion of order and progress.

Odunayaw:
You're waffling. Away with your strawman

Don't confuse yourself by typing too much next time.

Lol. Tell me you lost the argument without telling me you lost the argument.

Odunayaw:
Spare me the sanctimony and show me where it is stated as a criteria

It's embedded throughout the requirements: pitch quality standards, stadium conditions, training facilities, medical equipment functionality etc. These don't maintain themselves magically before tournaments. The criteria assume ongoing upkeep, not emergency fixes. If you can't see that functional infrastructure requires consistent maintenance between inspections, that's a reading comprehension issue you'll have to solve on your own. I can't help you.

Odunayaw:
Like bids are won entirely by such things

We lost the bid because our facilities sucked. Do your research and stop mumbling inanities.

Anyone who is following knows you've been tripping over yourself with your strawman

"it's not a will problem bbbut we need commitment and willingness to make sustained investments and reform. And that's not will means!"

😂

Mujtahida:
No I haven't oo but what that means is that I still prefer an unknown quantity to Osayi.

Oh! Wow!

As of the time of TUK bid, pray tell what facilities they had

NasirIbnLaAhad:
Then we shouldn't have lost the AFCON bid to Kenya/Tanzania/Uganda if it was that basic. Your logic is dead on arrival.

What’s the big deal is losing a bid? England lost the bid to host the World Cup that Qatar hosted does that make England incompetent or corruption ridden? Please rest you’re just trying to indict Nigeria at all costs, it’s not that deep.

Every outcome out there cannot always be used to bash the country. A bid is either won or lost. Countries bid to host the Olympics and a winner is announced will that always be an indictment on the others who took part in the bid? Haba

Let me use smaller words:

wanting thing ≠ having ability get thing.

Need both want AND tools.

Nigeria has want, lacks tools (systems).

Tools = institutions, laws, enforcement.

This simple enough, or should I draw pictures? Do you need a coloring book, hmm?

Ah yes, read into the requirements to argue your point.

A semi final run also done by South Korea in 2002 and then what?
Historically Morocco are still underachievers in African football. 1 Afcon title won in 1976.

And, why forget youth tournaments? Why forget women's football and all others? The point is total football achievements across all levels. Nigeria trumps by a wide margin and Nigeria's 5th rank in World football will never be toppled by any other African team. Morocco is 12th now right. That's good.

No one cares about who wins the baby tournaments...they are for development of young kids...That's the main objective...For elite football nations. Winning them is secondary.
It's the nonsense which is why Nigerian youth teams were fielding over aged players back then to impress the gullible Nigerian society.
Since the MRI scan has been enforced strictly by FIFA Nigeria hasn't even come close to winning those youth tourneys.
Yes Morocco have been underachievers in the AFCON but I do believe they're going to win one soon and the fact the fact that they're a genuinely good side who can match up to any team currently in world Football

Bossoflife25:
Not winning Olympic medals are some of the ills of the country? What is stopping you from winning one? How many Olympic medal have we won self?
Lack of information is a disease!
In fact, there was no time in our sporting history we have track and field talent as we do now!
We have the current World Record holder in women hurdles but peeps like you won't amplify that, na to cry today, cry tomorrow...
There was no time in our history we have multiple NCAA champions in several events as now!
You think if you are not doing so well, others aren't too. Sit up, guy!

OGA WE ARE FALLING AND FAILING CURRENTLY….read it and have peace with yourself

Strawman champion

The only one who limited Will to mere wish/want is you. So keep digging yourself deeper, you'd find understanding 😂

England still hosted the Euros and other competitions since then. If losing bids is just normal competition, then why haven't we successfully hosted a major continental tournament in decades despite recent attempts? What's your explanation for the consistent pattern of failure that doesn't involve acknowledging our infrastructure and organizational deficiencies?

You know a sprinkle of outright lies is necessary to make your point solid

elyte89:
Una too Dey under rate Nigeria 🇳🇬 sha …infrastructure wise ,Nigeria can host afcon conveniently…if Cameroon 🇨🇲 and Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 can do it..y can’t we…

Bar d insecurities,I am not too confident about,9ja will host it wout issues


With time now,anoda person go come thread talk
Say we no fit host interhouse sport sef 😏

It’s terrible the things we read here, you’ll just know some just write out of their feelings, even when they realise they are wrong they will still insist on what does not make sense. Losing an hosting bid now means Nigeria is a mess 😂

Accept it. You're out of your intellectual depth.

opes:
Co-hosting tournament is to promote regional unity and expand development, it is not about incapacity to host. Example is United States co-hosting World Cup with Mexico and Canada

Promoting ke, protein ni...
Who beg Nigeria to promote On top of small Nations cup that countries like Ivory Coast, even Kenya can host in their sleep.

😂😆 Anosognosia

I agree losing a bid means we no sabi anything again 😂

It’s our birthright to host tournaments by fire by force 😂

Your mental gymnastics deserve Olympic gold. Unfortunately Nigeria can't host that either.

You should apply for government spokesperson as you are talented at avoiding accountability.

What's funny is that these same set of people keep attacking the NFF with all manners of slander and bitterness. Mediocrity. It's in their blood. I now know why Afobear calls them Emotional F. Males

Goke7:

100% agree by the way. Especially given the reason you lost it.

It's only when it's time for Nigeria to host AFCON we hear things like promoting African Unity...
Why can't Nigeria host a Nations cup by themselves...
This is not the Fifa World Cup ffs!!!
They will rather involve poor nations like Benin, Togo, Swahili !!!
And still you will hear the deluded so called patriots chanting 'giant of africa'

NasirIbnLaAhad:

Losing a bid means there’s no accountability 😂

Words of wisdom 😂

My last post to you which you quoted had nothing to do with losing a bid actually. I was addressing you directly. But then again I understand your struggles.

we all have different endurance and temperament to this patriotic thing….some will get to a point and mention the ills we are facing even while being patriotic while some will want to be adamantly patriotic till kpai do them and Nigeria part….so stop freaking out when when the short enduring patriots voice out the obvious…make una calm down
Nobody is wrong…everyone here is right
-Yes we are Giant of Africa!✅
-Yes we are now doing like mumu of Africa!✅

both facts are currently mixing up like aporo epa ijebu
