TheGoodJoe:
After burying Sharks FC, a household name and pride of the Rivers People, after decades of playing a beautiful brand of possessive football. Now we invest in Real Madrid academy, instead of a Sharks FC academy.

Our inferiority complex is a big problem.

Either way, I pray this academy brings great opportunity to young Nigerians.

Willful colonization at it's finest. I thought I was crazy but reading your post let's me know I'm not alone.
