Alot of IRAN ayatollah supporters are truly shortsighted..

Israel just gave UN a heads up. If UN keeps mute Israel will also retaliate so that the IRANIAN regime will understand.

We wont entertain the children
The women
The hospitals
Tye schools

You be mumu. You no nothing about wars or strategy of wars.
Even if US Nuke Iran today, they still wont give up.
Isreal got what they deserved.
I only wish the Arab league can team up and mute Isreal once and for all. ISREAL REPRESENT EVERYTHING EVIL.

Propaganda..

Why is it that the same people that are against IRAN are quiet when Fulani herdsmen (brothers of Ayatollah) are killing their people senselessly.

This is truly unprecedented.

The 2026/2027 away jersey makes a powerful statement in iconic green and gold - a colour combination deeply rooted in South African sporting identity.

Designed with a structured collar featuring refined white and gold trim, the away kit blends heritage with sophistication. The collar detailing nods to prestige and progression, symbolising the elevation of South African football across both the men’s and women’s game.

The green base represents resilience and growth, while the white and gold accents signal ambition - a reminder that South Africa continues to shine on football’s biggest stages. Both jerseys have been designed for equal representation of Bafana Bafana and Banyana Banyana - reinforcing adidas and SAFA’s shared commitment to elevating the women’s and men’s game in tandem.

“While we honour the past generation of the 60’s to the 80s who could not represent South Africa, our partner adidas is bringing the design into the future, as an ode to both the elevation of the jersey but equally the evolution of diski (soccer) which is seeing us shine within global tournaments with our distinct culture and colour. We are hoping for even greater performances and success considering this jersey is built using adidas’ latest performance technology which as a former Banyana Banyana player I can attest to” said SAFA CEO Ms Lydia Monyepao.

“This away jersey reflects a timeless elegance, distinctly showcasing the adidas trefoil logo, synonymous with sporting culture and excellence. 2026 is significant as it represents the first year that adidas will introduce this logo to global away federations jerseys across the world during the World Cup. This is in keeping with the sophisticated style direction of these jerseys,” notes Tom Brown, Senior Brand Director for adidas South Africa. “While the styling is distinctly elevated, the elite functionality of the jersey remains unrivalled. The garment is constructed using adidas’ latest performance technology and is engineered for elite competition. Lightweight materials, advanced moisture management, and breathable construction ensure the athlete can perform with confidence under pressure. Every stitch reflects progression. Every detail tells a story.”

The adidas x SAFA 2026/2027 home and away jerseys will be available from 20 March 2026 at selected retailers and online.

Bafana Bafana will be based in Mexico for the the 2026 Men's World Cup.

Monday


Back in class today and everything flowed effortlessly. That experience only a corper truly understands. When students resume school, suddenly your days have a kind of structure and it is regimented. It felt good to be back again.

I took a short Christmas break, stepped away from the same routine, rested well, ate properly, and yes, added a little flesh in the right places 🤣🤣🤣🤣. No complaints there. Sometimes, resting is not laziness, it is a necessary maintenance. Life has a way of rewarding you when you pause long enough to breathe.

There is something deeply fulfilling about returning refreshed, with a clearer mind.

Sometimes, you really do need to take your head off certain things, reset, and come back better.


Tuesday

Earlier today went for my CDS as usual. CDS is meant to be free time, a breather, nothing intense. But as is my personal tradition, I still decided to teach. Not because anyone asked me to, but because knowledge should not be switched off simply because the timetable says so. Not everyone can do that, and I say that without arrogance, just honesty.

We had our CDS meeting, new EXCOs were selected, the usual formalities. I returned and went straight into class mode. Somewhere in the middle of teaching, it hit me again, if I were not studying my current course, I would have chosen history without hesitation. History opens the mind in a way few disciplines do. It gives clarity, context, and perspective. It helps you understand that today did not just appear, it was built by yesterday.

While teaching, I explained Nigeria’s military regimes and how they systematically stifled fundamental human rights. I referenced cases like Ken Saro-Wiwa, spoke about journalists who were executed for doing their jobs, and traced how military governments changed over time. The similarities, the differences, the patterns of power, fear, and control. Then I moved seamlessly into the next subject. And then another. And another.

Four subjects in one day.

In a CDS setting.

Anyone who understands how distracting and disjointed CDS environments can be will understand why this matters. It was not easy, but it was fulfilling. By the end of it, I felt genuine joy. The kind that comes from knowing you gave more than was required and used your time well.

Today deserves applause.




Wednesday

This morning, while teaching my students/pupils about food fraud, a memory I had buried resurfaced. It is a story my mother told me years ago, one I still find unsettling each time I remember it.

It is about a woman popularly known as Iya Seki, who ran a buka somewhere around the Jakande, Lekki area in the 1990s. I was not born then, but the way the story was told made it feel vivid, almost present. I grew up in Igbara, or Gbara as we call it, and stories like this were told with fear, not exaggeration.

Iya Seki was not an ordinary food seller. She sold everything, rice, beans, ewedu, amala, egusi, all neatly arranged with tempting assortments. Her customers came in swarms. Within a short time, other food vendors around closed their shops permanently. She had become the centre of attention. In one day, she sold no fewer than six coolers of rice alone. Customers queued endlessly at her entrance. Married women trusted her food so much they packed it into their children’s lunch boxes. Ironically, behind the scenes, she treated her workers with extreme cruelty.

There is a saying, every day for the thief, one day for the owner.

Iya Seki had a strange habit. She bathed very early, before 4am. On one such morning, an elderly man, reportedly a Muslim traveller from Ikate, one of those unusually tall Niger men often called Godogodo, happened to pass by. What he saw stopped him cold.

According to my mother, the woman was bathing naked outside, around Orita Meta, the main junction. As she scooped water to pour on her body, she washed her private parts and emptied the contents into a large pot, the same pot she used for cooking. Very disgusting!!!!

The man raised an alarm immediately.

Within minutes, the entire community was awake. People came out with cutlasses, knives, tyres, petrol. Mob justice followed, brutal and uncontrolled. Before she was killed, she was tortured until she confessed.

Her confession was worse than the accusation.

She admitted to using mortuary water, the water used to bathe corpses, in cooking her food. She confessed to several ritual practices over the years, including killing her daughters. She spared the last one because she was married, but according to her, that daughter had suffered repeated miscarriages because she spiritually used the foetuses for rituals.

Whether every detail is true or not, one thing is certain, the fear that story planted in people’s minds never left.

Many people have lost more than money. Some lost health, peace, and destinies, simply because they never asked questions.

Be careful what you consume. Be careful who you trust. Some lessons are too expensive to relearn.




Thursday

I don’t joke with my students(pupils), and I never joke with their learning. One thing people who know me understand very well is that I care deeply about how much my students actually retain, not just what I rush to teach.

Today was one of those days. I was extremely busy, mentally and physically drained even attending to other classes, and the heat in Umuahia North was something else. Very hot.

Over time in this teaching profession, I have come to a very clear realization. Some subjects demand serious concentration and deliberate attention. Subjects like Mathematics and English are not to be handled casually. They require fresh minds, alert brains, and a calm learning environment. That is why I prefer taking those subjects in the morning, when students are more attentive and responsive. The lighter subjects can come later in the afternoon when energy levels begin to drop. This balance is important.

Teaching is not just about standing in front of a class and talking. It is about ensuring that attention is fixed, understanding is built, and learning actually happens. If the students are not mentally present, the lesson is wasted, no matter how well prepared you are.

Today’s classes were intense, demanding, and honestly exhausting, but they were worth it. This is a small photo dump of what we covered in class today. It was quite an experience, even though I am very tired.

Still, we go again tomorrow. As usual.


Friday

Way back when we were kids, we used to arrange ourselves on stage for little performances. There were props, simple scripts, mostly Christian drama scripts, and everyone had a role to play. I remember acting different characters back then, at liberty church Idado which is close to Igbo-efon. It was really exciting.

Life moved on, of course. That part of me grew into other things. But today, standing in front of a class and teaching theatre, I realised it never really left.

We talked about the basics. What a script is. What acts and scenes mean. How a story is structured on stage. I gave examples, and as always, I drew on the board. I am a visual person, and when I teach, I teach with pictures, sketches, and imagination. Not because it looks fancy, but because it helps people understand. That matters to me.

We spoke about the stage, the lighting, the props, the actors, male or female depending on the level, and the audience. The audience, the silent witnesses, the ones who watch and interpret everything happening on stage. Theatre is never complete without them.

At some point, I asked them to draw freely, to imagine, to create.

Funny how a simple drawing can open old doors and remind you why you do what you do.

And honestly, thank God it’s Friday.

Nigeria holds the record for the most bronze medals in AFCON history (1957-2025). While we always aim for gold, the Super Eagles' ability to remain in the top three across decades is unmatched. While 9 bronze medals show incredible consistency, it often sparks a debate among fans: is it a sign of dominance or a case of "so close, yet so far"?
Is this record a testament to Nigeria's footballing consistency, or do these stats feel like missed opportunities for more titles?

Good day Nairalanders,

What is the light situation in your area, just as the heading suggests.

In my office 🏬 Lekki phase1, light has been very bad, since last month, despite the fact that we are on Band A, we have been solely relying on generator from morning till night.

In my house at around Obalende, infact that one os worst, sometimes, I stay in the office late, so that once I enter house, just take my bath and sleep straight..

The most painful part is that, my inlaw who is from Oyo state are complaing bitterly that light might not even come for 2-3 month and when it does, it won't last more than 4hours and its gone..

We have a minister who is from Oyo state and can't even manage just a ministry and want to govern a whole state.

The light is really giving me a concern, mostly this festive period that alot of expenses is there, you will still be thinking of powering generator with high rate of fuel to welcome visitors..

Quite sure that nigerian air force officer who saluted Capt Traore is higher in rank than him based on equivalence.

Isnt it odd for him to be saluting him?

Military mind in the house, can you explain?

Goodmarlian:
Some women are really insecure beings and don't like the truth. There is this female friend of mine who developed a sudden likeness towards piercing her body and fitting rings everywhere. She pierced her nose, pierced her ear with 3 holes, I didn't criticise her because it was still common among girls, but the last one she did was awkward I had to tell her it doesn't fit her

This girl has a protruding Tommy and went ahead to pierce he navel and fitted a belly ring and it doesn't look good on her because it fits only women with very flat tummy, she went ahead started making Dance videos on her WhatsApp which I know is to entice men.

She wore tight and a short top that was where I noticed she did a navel piercing. I told her straight up that it doesn't fit her ever since she stopped talking to me.
