After watching that match and crying to bits afterwards; in my quiet moments, i realized that our nation Nigeria was cursed.

We don't seem to get it right, even with the best assembly of talents anytime it matters most.
The devil always descends into our midst.

Nigeria was the favourite to win that world cup.
No exaggeration.

The devil used the likes of Amokachi, Oliseh and Siasia to destroy our hopes.

Anyway, Karma has paid them back in full since then.
Not favourite but we would have reached final or at least semi final.

because after italy we would have met Spain in the Qtrs and then bulgaria who we thrashed in the semi-finals..

Brazil and Netherland were stronger than us and even sweden

Don’t underestimate the luck of mbappe to shine through.

Bayern is favorites but PSG have beaten then in the past.

Lyon could have been 3-0 ahead if they took their chances.

Why do people retire at the age of 60,65, let us be sincere with our self, anything 60 is not fit to rule Nigeria. No strength to run around and take things effective as it supposed to be.
The ideal age to be president is actually 60. From that age a person should have wrapped up his career and now use all experience gained .


The job of president needs a vigorous and energetic person and I agree anything over 70 should not be nearing that role. A country is like a big company with security issues

However there are exceptions

35-70 is good after 70 make dem go retire

I don't know where you're going with it. You can't compare those you mentioned with our politicians. For example Buhari did nothing between 1983 (after he was toppled) and 1999.
Bernie Sanders maybe 78yrs but he's fitter and more energetic than baba-go-slow Buhari.
Excatly, there was a book I read describing the disaster that happen when buhari plotted a coup and overthrew Shagari in the 80s.

Poverty hit Nigeria when buhari took over and that’s y babangida overthrew him.

Do research you will find out buhari took massive loans and stole millions of dollars

Sports › Willian Rejects Chelsea Contract Renewal, About To Accept Arsenal Offer by quickly(op): 3:19pm On Aug 03, 2020
IS this a good or bad move ? Arsenal now want to consume Chelsea waste ? Willian wants to reconnect with his friend David Luiz who recently reneewd with arsenal

Arsenal are close to signing Chelsea star Willian after offering a lucrative contract and multi-million signing-on fee to him.

The Gunners have leapfrogged former favourites Tottenham in the race for the attacking midfielder and hope to seal a deal in the coming days.



An Arsenal source has told the club have made significant moves in recent days to take advantage of Willian’s contract stalemate.



His agent Kia Joorabchian has held extensive discussions with Arsenal technical director Edu and an agreement is close.

The north Londoners are working to sign him as a free agent after he rejected an improved contract offer from Chelsea.

Frank Lampard’s side are still only willing to hand the Brazilian, who turns 32 this month, a two-year deal.



Arsenal are looking to beat that with a substantial signing-on fee as well as a lucrative contract that would improve his current terms.

Mikel Arteta is convinced the in-form star would be a value signing despite his age and contract demands.

Willian will be available on a free transfer at the end of this season, which could come on Saturday should Bayern Munich eliminate Chelsea from the Champions League.

Edu of brazil is football director in arsenal. He has plans to bring in Coutinho, Willian and Thomas PArtey

Let's not allow our hatred for Nigerian politicians cloud our judgement, a Government that executes politicians for corruption is not stable.. trust me.. as much as it is made to seem like it's a rule set in stone and no one is exempted, there will be certain people in power who can easily subvert this law for nefarious purposes like eliminating political rivals and what not.

The United States has so many Isis and Al -Qaeda tourists captured who have killed thousands, these folks deserve straight up death if you ask me. But the US is a country that at least tries to hold true to liberality and fairness for all , this is more than I can say for the likes of China and Russia

Sports › Manchester United Make Offer For Victor Osimhen ( 54-60million Pounds). by quickly(op): 6:21pm On Jul 17, 2020
Man Utd made contact with Victor Osimhen 'hours ago' in attempt to hijack Napoli transfer

This will make him most expensive Nigerian player

Manchester United are one of many clubs that have been linked with a summer transfer for Lille striker Victor Osimhen though Serie A giants Napoli were believed to be on the verge of making a move

Manchester United reportedly contacted Victor Osimhen’s agent as the Red Devils look to make a move for the Lille striker.

United have been linked with a summer transfer for Osimhen, though Serie A giants Napoli are thought to be leading the race.

It’s reported that Osimhen is in advance negotiations with Napoli, though it seems the Red Devils have not given up hope just yet.

Respected journalist Ciro Venerato spoke to CalcioNapoli24 about the race for the player, and claimed that United contacted Osimhen’s agent recently.

Venerato said: “A few hours ago Manchester United phoned Osimhen’s new agent to find out if he had signed with Napoli.



“If an offer from United comes, there would not be many possibilities because they have an economic power superior to that of Napoli.”


United have been linked with a host of names ahead of this summer’s transfer window, including Jadon Sancho and Harry Kane.

And Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hopeful that he will have money to spend if he wants to.

The Norwegian recently said: “Manchester City and Liverpool, the last couple of seasons, have put the standard where it should be to win the league.

“We’ve developed over the season and you’re thinking, ‘Yeah, we’re not too far away’ and I’m very happy with the squad.

“If there are any good deals to be made and players to make us better of course we might have to spend some money on that but the squad is great to work with and it’s moving in the right direction.

“We’re still not where we want to be, close enough to challenge for the Premier League trophy but we take one step at a time.”

United may feel they need to strengthen if they are to challenge for next season's title.

The Red Devils beat Crystal Palace on Thursday night, though remain fifth in the table with just two matches left to play.

TV/Movies › Re: Mark Angel Is Africa's Greatest Youtuber, A Nigerian by quickly: 2:55pm On Jul 16, 2020
Dpsychologist:
Nigerians Are Unaware That Africa's Greatest Youtuber Is A Nigerian

Alot of Nigerians do not know that Africa's biggest YouTuber is a Nigerian. Interestingly, that title belongs to one 29-year-old Nigerian comedian, scriptwriter, and video producer who oddly doesn’t have as much clout back home as he has loyal fans abroad.

With over 6.39 million subscribers and more than 1 billion views on his 300+ videos, Mark Angel is technically the biggest YouTuber in Africa.(Social blade, 2020)
The Nigerian is best known for the Mark Angel Comedy series of shorts on YouTube, often featuring child comedians such as his 9-year-old niece, Emmanuella Samuel, and her sister, “Aunty” Success Madubuike (age 5 as of 2019).
Mark Angel’s YouTube channel was the first African comedy channel to reach one million subscribers.
Mark Angel was born in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. He had a stint at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Osun State, Nigeria, where he had been accepted to study medicine, but he eventually abandoned his studies due to family reasons.

After he left college, he spent time in Nigeria gaining experience in cinematography and theater. In 2013, he began independent filmmaking under the name, Mechanic Pictures, having been unable to find stable work in Nigeria’s film industry, Nollywood.
His skits became an instant hit. In 2017, Mark Angel Comedy received a plaque from YouTube for having reached one million subscriptions. It was the first Nigerian-based YouTube channel to reach that threshold.
Mark Angel’s niece, Emmanuella, has won comedy awards in Nigeria and Australia for her work with Mark Angel and is Africa’s youngest YouTube award winner.
In 2018, she even bagged a nomination in Nickelodeon’s famous Kids’ Choice Awards. Mark Angel Comedy videos can reach up to a million views during the first week after posting.
Few people know it but Mark Angel is, by some distance, Africa’s most successful YouTuber.


So, How Come Most Nigerians Don’t Know This?
Short Answer: It’s probably because Nigerians don’t care about YouTube and YouTubers that much, at least, not as much as they care about other social platforms.
As a matter of fact, compared to other social media platforms that are popular in Nigeria like WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram, YouTube has only a tiny fraction of active users of which only an even smaller fraction can be termed “consistent users.”
Maybe it’s not even Mark Angel, perhaps the fact of the matter is that most Nigerians don’t even know any of the biggest YouTubers in Nigeria.


And Why’s This?
Hootsuite’s State of Digital report placed the number of internet users in Nigeria at 98.39 million as of 2019.
Of the 98.39 million Nigerian internet users, it was found that 54 percent access the internet on a daily basis while only 12 percent (24 million) have active social media accounts.

Additionally, WhatsApp was found to be the most active social media platform in the country with 85 percent of internet users. Facebook placed second with 78 percent,
Instagram came third at 57 percent, followed by FB Messenger at 54 percent.
YouTube is only fifth on the rankings with 53 percent. And that says a lot about the popularity of the platform in Nigeria, and by extension, the popularity of the rockstars on the video-sharing platform in these parts.


Here’s Why YouTube Is Slacking In These Parts

Despite the increase in the number of internet users in Nigeria, overall internet penetration remains quite low, with only about 50 percent of the population connected to the internet, compared to the global average of 57 percent.
Besides that, many Nigerians who have access to the internet cannot afford to stream videos online, plus there’s the issue of spotty internet connections.

All these hamper YouTube usage in Nigeria, making the platform less popular and less frequently-used than other social platforms. It’s for this reason that the likes of Mark Angel get the bulk of their viewership from abroad.
“It is very discouraging for me as a video content creator,” lamented Tobi Ayeni, a YouTube creator popularly known as MissTechy, who spoke to TechPoint
last year.

“Imagine going through a lot of stress to shoot and upload a great video, only for people to watch just the first one minute or skim through because they are trying to manage the data they have,” she complained.

It’s a feeling shared by Dimma Umeh , a fast-rising Nigerian vlogger who runs a fast-growing YouTube channel where she bosses all things, fashion, makeup, and lifestyle, though, according to her, things are beginning to improve.
“I would say that adoption [of YouTube] has been gradual, especially when compared to other platforms where we often create short-form content,” she tells
WeeTracker .

“In the past two years, however, creators like me have seen a sharp increase in the number of viewers viewing from Nigeria and that gives us hope.”
