3rd qtr not so good, the Chinese know we cant shoot, hence, them playing zone, we need to move the ball quicker to counter that, if we cant make our shots, we need to attack them before they set up..

We lost the game 67-70. Is this how we want to play at the FIBA World Cup in Berlin 😲😲? This is why I keep pushing for at least 4 new players in the Squad. If you can't shoot very well, what is the point playing in a Nigerian Jersey ? I don't hate Blessing Ejiofor but she is not adding much value to the team 😬. At least give the ladies strong instructions and if they can't abide with the instructions, they can pack their bags and go home. We are struggling with China. We have not even played Belgium and Spain 😬😲.

I know Nneka has played at the World Cup; I was referring to the coaches snubbing her when it came to the Olympics.

Ok. This year's FIBA Women's World Cup is going to be very competitive. Coach Rena should use the friendly games lined up for D'tigress to select a team that can fight for the trophy against all opposition. D'tigress are past the stage of just being satisfied with getting a Quarter Final ticket 🙏. The game should never be over until the last second of the 4th Quarter. Cheers.

PDPGuy:
IKR!

There has to some sub-conscious ethnic bias when it comes to Team USA’s roster selections for the Olympics (and World Cup), because I’m yet to hear a convincing argument as to why prime Nneka Ogwumike, Arike Ogunbowale (Olympics) and now, Kiki, weren’t/aren’t good enough for those premier tournaments 🤷🏾‍♂️

Nneka Ogwumike played at the World Cup for the USA. Please check the records. She played at the 2018 FIBA Women's World Cup in Spain against Nigeria. She has however not played at the Olympics for the USA which is sad. Arike has not played any major championship for the USA. This is a trend that is developing which Kiki Iriafen should have stayed out of by playing for Nigeria. She would be in China with Rena Wakama and our Nigerian squad. She would most likely get a shirt in the D'tigress squad for Berlin 2026. Other Nigerian-American talented female basketballers should learn from what is going on to avoid stories that touch the heart later on. Cheers.

Zambia is totally out of the tournament. Malawi will face either Ghana or Mali in the Quarter Finals. It is the first and second teams in each group ( 4 Groups ) that qualified for the quartet Finals. It is obvious that the Super Falcons are not playing too well in this tournament. Cheers.

Kaodirichi Akobundu-Ehiogu is joining BC Zalgiris Kaunas (@bczalgiris) on a 1+1 deal ✍️

The @EuroCup Blocks Leader from last season will be hoping for similar success in Kaunas in the paint 🛑

He is a very good player. Nigeria is very lucky to have him don the Green and White jerseys. And he still has a lot of service years before him for Dtigers.

I don't want to discourage you,but my opinion is that plantain is too common to plant.

You are trying.

Plantain is not common o. It is always a good crop to plant and a bunch of plantain costs good money ( 5k to 8k ). Plantain is not also troubled by pests and leaf borers or other insects. It can also grow on different types of soil. Cheers

A Dutch family but they bear Nigeria names 😂

It is obvious that the Ajose family naturalized in Holland ( Netherlands ). Their daughter must have been born in the Netherlands while the parents came to Netherlands as immigrants and got their Dutch passports years later. To be honest, plenty theft occurs in the West Midlands. Pretty hard for blacks to receive adequate help from Police in that region of England. I wish the Ajose family the best as they try to get back their Van and other valuables 🙏.

The Super Falcons of Nigeria will get to the finals 🙏. They will recover from this slow start and still win the Cup. If Nigeria meets Malawi again in this tournament, Nigeria will defeat Malawi. Mark my words.

There’s something that happened to groundnut farming that hardly anyone talks about.

The people of Ohoro, Uwheru, and Ewreni in Delta State were well known for growing potatoes and groundnuts as far back as the 1960s. They supplied groundnuts to many parts of Delta State, Bayelsa State, and even parts of Rivers State.

But about four years ago, bandits invaded their farmlands. They killed people, chased farmers away, and made farming almost impossible. Women who went to the farms risked being raped or killed.

When things became unbearable, the youths in the communities decided to defend themselves. Armed with only machetes, they went into the bush to confront the bandits. Unfortunately, the bandits opened fire on them, and several young men lost their lives. It took soldiers to recover their bodies. After that tragic incident, the communities gave up trying to fight back.

As a result, they stopped growing groundnuts altogether. Instead, they began traveling to northern Nigeria to buy groundnuts and resell them in their communities and neighboring states.

The military eventually chased the bandits out after about four years of terror. But even now, many of the farmers have not returned to groundnut farming. They still depend on buying groundnuts from the North instead of growing them themselves.

Painful story. I am happy you have established the fact that groundnuts can grow and has been successfully cultivated in Southern Nigeria ( Delta State ). I am so happy about that. Many plants and crops that grow in the North can also be grown in the South 💪. Sometimes I believe the bandits don't want southerners to engage in Agriculture. They want us to keep buying foodstuff from the North. It is their evil agenda towards the South 🙏. Southerners should start planting groundnuts, beans, millet and guinea corn on a large scale. Cheers.

Say it louder : I love BASKETBALL 🏀🏀🏀 💪🏆🏆🇳🇬🇳🇬.

Even MTN data is like vapour these days. It finishes quickly 😲😲😲. I bought 1GB and it vanished to 130 MB in less than 30 minutes of writing an application online. Unbelievable 😬😬😬. I am going to complain to MTN and get my data returned to me. Blistering barnacles.

Bodex2000:
I toured the entire market today, yet I couldn't find a single agro store with everything I needed.
I'm going to order online now

Bro, good Afternoon. Which market did you go to? Did you try Sabo Market in Ikorodu? Did you try Mile 12 Market in Ikorodu? I am in Ikorodu too. I am happy with your plan for vegetables. I am in the Ijede Road axis of Ikorodu but I frequent Salabo which is not far from Imota. The soil in the Imota axis is good for Agriculture. Cheers.

I like him but that is not his true age. It is his football age. Dude should be 55 years old. I heard that he played football in Festac Town, Lagos and those on that Festac pitch know his true age. Anyway, he played well and remains a great football player.

Very good development . South Africans should be sent back to their country from all over the world 💪.

I grew up in this Church - C&S Ayo Ni O ( Surulere District ). The late Engineer Pastor Fakeye was the Church's leader then. The Church remains a great Church. I am a Pentecostal Christian now.

God bless Governor Otti. Let us continue to show Mercy to others 🙏.

Kudos to Shehu Dikko and Bukola Olopade 😎😎. These dedicated sports administrators are doing a lot of work to uplift the state of Nigerian Sports in general. Hats off to them. 🏆🏆💪.

I can see Gabby White in Camp. I like how she plays 💪💪. Yes, I hope Uche Izoje makes the camp too. This Jordan Obi, I hope she is very good. I am looking forward to watching all the D'tigress upcoming friendly games via YOUTUBE.COM. Thanks to all of you giving us solid updates on this thread. Cheers and Stay Blessed 🙏.

Some of them are grown in the South.



I saw that velvet tamarind in my uncle's farm in Ogun state some years back.

Many of these Northern fruits can actually grow in Southern Nigeria. Though the South has more rainfall than the North, some of these fruits adapt to the climatic and soil conditions anywhere they are planted. Cheers.

Execute all the terrorists and their commanders NOW 💪💪🙏🇳🇬🇳🇬. No need to give them life imprisonment. They have killed innocent Nigerians and they must also DIE 😬😬😬.

There is something wrong with MTN these days. Data finishes quickly even though you have hardly browsed anything. Even the free YOUTUBE viewing from 12 to 5 am is not working 😬😬. It will just hang there and fail to connect. Hmn.

God bless you , my brother. Thanks for the Zobo seedlings you purchased. We are raising a fresh batch of Zobo seedlings and they will be ready in a matter of 4-5 weeks. Why don't you book your Zobo ( Hibiscus Sabdariffa ) seedlings now ? 450 Naira per seedling if you are buying less than 10 seedlings. 400 Naira per seedling if you are buying above ten Zobo seedlings 🙏. Zobo grows in Southern Nigeria too.

Call or Whatsapp me today for more information. Thank you.

It's always available in our markets. I don't know if it's the same in your area.

In my area, groundnut seeds for planting are taken out of their pods, stored in sack bags, and sold in cups or basins.

Or, ask people who sell groundnuts for a living where they get their raw groundnuts, and they'll show you.

Ok, thanks a lot. I appreciate your help. Cheers.

Where can one get groundnut seeds? Thanks.

*COMMONWEALTH GAMES UPDATE*

Nigeria Women Wheelchair Basketball team secures historic Quarter final spot after beating India

Nigeria Women's Wheelchair Basketball Team made history on Monday in Glasgow by securing Nigeria's first ever win at the Commonwealth Games after beating India 7-6 points to secure a quarter final ticket against Australia on Tuesday.

The Nigerian Girls were on the brink of being knocked out of the tournament after losing their first two games against Whales and Scotland but put up an impressive fight in their final group game to secure a Quarter final playoff spot against the Aussies.

The Nigerian Girls now have a chance to secure a semi final spot if they beat the Australians on Tuesday for an unprecedented podium chance

Never knew Nigeria had a wheelchair basketball team for females 💪🙏. I wish our ladies the best against Australia.

I have not seen groundnut leaves before. Very troubling.

NO tribe in Africa can survive on its own.

The problem is, despite all the boasting you and yes other tribes do, no tribe in Africa can stand on its own, because most of you prefer to go to university and get a white collar job with your degree, than get a vocational and technical education and build the society of tomorrow.

That's why we are underdeveloped and we are in debt. All those boys and girls who are posing in their airconditioned offices are costing our government and economies billions of scarce forex. Yes, including the politicans and people on top, they are part of it.

But let me tell you something...any new nation that comes out of Nigeria, if it must be prosperous, a generation, maybe two would have to work very long and degrading hours, and do a lot of dirty work and manufacturing work to ensure the country becomes an industrial producer that can survive on its own if oil runs out.

Most of the Nigerians who want division or who want nigeria to remain united have their eye on the oil money. They do not have their eye on develoipment and using their raw materials to make exportable goods and services the world needs.

South Korea was behind many African nations as at 1960. I am not lying or exagerrating. It took a generation of people doing the three D's and a generatrion of white collar workers working their hands off before the country saw something like a first world life. It took them holding their education to high standards, such that kids had to start getting ready for university long before the time, before they could be an industrial nation.

It was not by fighting corruption alone. Yes, we need to do it, but it would not make us prosperous.

Well Spoken 🙏🇳🇬.

Very wrong appointment . What did Fayose achieve as the Governor of Ekiti State ? Did he create viable industries in Ekiti State 🙄? What are his legacies as a Governor of a State? What did he do with the Cocoa in Ekiti State ? Fayose can not deliver anything tangible as REA Chairman.

Zobo drink is very nutritious. Do you know that you can plant your own Zobo in your compound? Zobo grows in southern Nigeria too. Call or Whatsapp me on 07049598500. Cheers.

No. There was a lady I admired a lot and actually told her she is beautiful. Her name is Bukola. I believe she was my destined wife ( Ayanmo ) but we were too young when i was chasing her and even after graduation, I failed to tell her my intentions. She is married now to someone else and she has kids 😏😏. Sometimes I wonder what would have been. Perhaps, it was better for her getting married to the other guy, because I wonder if she will be able to cope with some things i am going through at the moment if I had taken her to the altar🙏🙏. I will always love you, Bukola.
