We wont get over your tribalistic madness. We will continue to talk about it again n again for posterity knowing how you love to twist facts n history.

The man as said his piece, live with it. He said his experience not yours nor that of your brother. In fact to hell with your own experience n that of your brothers.

So someone can just walk into an interview and say all manner of nonsense without the interviewer asking critical questions. A sound mind would have at least asked him to specify the year that happened, but them go just dey shine teeth

How does this deny the tribalistic
madness plaguing you. The guy narrated his own experience not that of everyone else who played for Rangers.

I wonder at what point he wanted to play for Rangers base on this analysis

There is no evidence that Moses Simon ever played for Enugu Rangers or turned down the club.

Instead, his career followed a different path:

He developed at the GBS Academy in Lagos, one of Nigeria's top football academies.

In 2013, while still a teenager, he had a trial with AFC Ajax in the Netherlands.

Although Ajax did not sign him, he quickly moved to AS Trenčín in Slovakia, where he began his professional career.

Because he received an opportunity to move directly to Europe at a young age, he never played for Enugu Rangers in the Nigerian league. It was simply the path his career took, not because Rangers rejected him or because he refused to play there.

Get over it..
My cousin have tried to be recruited by Rangers for years but they never signed him. He is at Enugu as we speak, and he is a full blooded igbo btw. ..

That you became a good player later in life, doesn't mean you were good at the time you were with them. Rangers as a club has helped lots of non igbo players to the top.. As at today, a lot of their players and recent managers are not even igbos.

Taribo West is not igbo, he played for Rangers and became a Super Eagles player. The list is endless. Yall should get off the igbo mans dikc..
And to Moses and his cat legs..,Make we hear word ahbegi..

If he said this about another team from another region, you people will be here making the biggest noise about it.
It's only when it about you people that you start to apply logic and start 6o ask logical questions.
But if he had said this about the North or SW, you Igbos will pounce on it and try to blow it up bigger than what it is.
Whenever they accuse your people of bad things, then you want evidence, you ask reasonable questions, you apply logic and ask logical questions.
But let ot be about North or Sw, logic will fly out the window, you will not ask for evidence, you will automatically conclude that it must be true.
You will even blame their religion whatsoever happened.
Blind hypocrites.
Learn to apply the same reasoning faculty next time you hear similar accusations.

Moses Simon left Nigeria for Europe when he was 18 years old.

After training at GBS Academy in Nigeria, he traveled to the Netherlands in 2013 for a trial with Ajax. Although Ajax did not offer him a contract, he signed for AS Trenčín in Slovakia in January 2014, when he was 18 years and about 6 months old.

His early career timeline was:

1995 – Born in Jos, Plateau State.

2003–2013 – Played for GBS Academy in Nigeria.

2013 (age 18) – Went to the Netherlands for an Ajax trial.

January 2014 (age 18) – Moved to Slovakia to join AS Trenčín and began his professional career.

Leaving Nigeria at such a young age helped him develop in Europe before becoming a regular player for the Super Eagles.

But the guy is not a good player. He just have pace with zero technicality.

You weren't good enough that's why they didn't sign u not because you're not Igbo. Person go think say you played for Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid or other European heavyweights & winning major trophies with them.

There are many issues like this in Nigeria on daily basis and you people always believe them as long as it paints others in bad light.
But the moment that bad news is about you people, then you start to use your logical sense,

Start doing the same when it about other people from other regions too then we might start to take you people seriously. Until then, all we see is HYPOCRISY.

Key word. Currently meaning the tribal ones may have left. But he said he was dropped because he was not Ibo back then.

If I am not mistaking, Moses Simon became a professional some 10-15yrs ago, meaning it was at this period he went for Rangers trial.
In over 20 or so years that I know Rangers, they have never been a time Rangers are without non Igbo players.

Moses Simon should admit he wasn't up to measure then.

Tales by moonlight. To show how lunatic your senseless rant is.

Igbos have been in Lagos since time memorial.

In all those there as been no time Lagos was without Igbos.

Therefore you should admit you are not worthy of Lagos n lick yah wound.

issue of tribalism has nothing to do with a group of people. It depends on the individuals involved. When you compare pats and objs administrations, you will see that pats own is very tribalistic in nature,While obj's was void of tribalism. Both of them are from Yorubas tribe . Any system that depends on tribalism is always messy, and that is why this administration is very messy.

It doesn’t change anything. People have faced tribalism in all parts of the world and even in their country.
