Morata to me would have been better had he stayed at Madrid. This guy was a good player during his Juventus days, I wonder what went wrong. At times location could affect one's progress either negatively or positively. He'll be regretting his action now.
Benzema isall that went wrong. He couldn't wait for the old French stallion to retire.

Mention one country that price of things keep going down. You guys better wake up to realities
But mention one sane country where prices continually go up without commensurate improvement. Better, faster, safer is alien to Nigeria. The people will resist this and quality will suffer. That is the summary of an unaccountable country. They have gone to great lengths to explain what they want to get via taxation. What do you know about the product of such taxation, nothing. And you a typical sheepish Nigerian citizen with zero ability to hold people accountable jump to suport it. That is the origins of corruption, unvetted wanton taxation. The National Assembly should be informed and it be suspended until it is fully vetted and agreed by all. This is a democracy, not a banana republic where some idiot will just wake up and destabilise people. Cyber security my rear end.

See the stress the American or British government goes through in trying to introduce new taxes or raise tax rates. That is the origin of their anti-corruption war, a working system of information exchange and exhaustive, rigorous debates of various funding templates for government driven programs in checking for viability and efficiency all in a bid to bring accountability. Here one silly consultant will propose to dumb government officials on how to fleece the public to pay for dodgy programs and with their 'cut' secured they are prepared to go to any lengths to rob the weak, ignorant and unsuspecting public. Nonsense.

Same thing you will be saying about the Customs.... wetin concern Customs with APC.... with the head of a top security and paramilitary organisation openly and crudely playing partisan politics in Aso Rock.. I thought certain organisations are supposed to be pro government through and through. This government has muddied that red line. Next thing, the military chiefs will be wearing APC caps and singing the praises of Mr. President.... like North Korea.

Don't worry Rochas. We will speak out against all injustices and for the good of all citizens including you when necessary but the institutions of justice you and your ilk have constantly undermined and denigrated will not be there for you immediately because they will have to be rebuilt by the goodwill of all men of honour after three years of systematic destruction under the government you helped support.

Sports › Re: "No Liverpool Player Can Get Into Real Madrid's Team" - Ex Madrid Coach Claims by Reference(m): 7:12am On May 23, 2018
That is unfortunately true. It has been proven time and again that the EPL though the most exiting and competitive is technically behind the Laliga which parades the largest collection of big game players who operate at consistently unbelievablely high levels. Good examples:

Mo Salah scores thirty goals and the press is agog. In Spain a dozen players can do that. Secondly, Gareth Bale was of Mo Salah status when he left for Madrid where he has been found out to be less than consistent and less than technically competent. Thirdly, the just concluded Europa Cup proves that.... Spanish league teams are still head and shoulders above the rest of Europe. And this includes the quality of their squads.
Health › Re: Doctors Operate On Woman 21 Times, Set To Conduct The 22nd Surgery. Photo by Reference(m): 6:58am On May 23, 2018
KOPT33:
Laparascopic surgery is really expensive... my family paid 1.5 million 7 years ago just to avoid this complications and scarring.

How much do you think the procedure is right now in Nigeria?
1.5 million? But where does all the money go. Someone's pocket I suggest. In medicine, in many parts of the world especially Nigeria no one cam tell whether thete is real value in the cost of services. Noone lnows how much things should really cost, services are arbritrarily priced and overpriced because a man in pain or at the foothills of death wiil do all he can and beyond to get relief.

Simply because new technology is introdiced that produces a better product does not and should not necessarily mean the astronomical difference in price charged for such services and there should be a body in Nigeria that modulates these. Right now it is left to the profession to charge what they want, hoe they want, backed by a very powerful union in the NMA. Some body should speak for the citizens.

I 'm aware of the unusually high costs of some medical imaging services in Nigeria and often wonder what the basis is and criteria for such. Who sets and approves these sums in general, but I understand the health business is a 'sellers' game and as they say, dead men tell no tales, but should it be.

See these people oh. With all the terrorists we are going to face in the world cup the guy did a fast one. Good for him. One dazzling dribble through thr heart of our defence by Leo Messi is enough to cut his sign on fee by half.

somehow:
Most Nigerians don't know what gift is.

If its not money, house, car or your body, they don't see it as a gift.
Materialism entwinned with poverty has ruined them. Their forefathers were lured with monetary gifts while the white man took.them into slavery. Meanwhile the museums of Europe are filled with their native treasures they see as worthless today. As you crave what they have, the white man craves what you have.

Just make the gift seem special to him and he will treasure it for ever. Your money and materialism cannot move him. After playing for the biggest clubs in the world, he has seen the flash and flamboyance on a mega scale. Money cannot move someone like Torres.

I'm an cameronian that worked in, Nigeria for 5 years. I want to tell you that Nigerians are the friendlies, most hospitable people I've ever known.

They are let down by their corrupt leaders who are not content with stealing millions but need billions.

The average Nigerian is poor and has to be self sufficient to survive. There is no Government help. School fees, hospital fees all have to be paid for. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Religion is another way of controlling the population. Nigerians are very religious. They are very naïve and believe everything their told in the name of religion.

The best way forward for Nigerians is to empower their women who are the real power in Nigeria. Let the women have power over their bodies and their lives and you'll see that Nigeria will progress.

Liberate Nigeria from their primitve religious beliefs and patriarchal society and Nigeria will prosper.
Thanks for the heads up. When we sort out then we will help you get rid of Paul Biya who has been your HOS since the 12th century. What greater corruption can there be.
Politics › Re: Buhari Queries Obasanjo Over $16bn Power Project by Reference(m): 4:00pm On May 22, 2018
It has started for OBJ. Another proof that the anti-corruption war is personal, selective and vindictive. The only way out now is to support Mr. President's re-election bid and that is why I implore everyone to support Mr President's re-election so we can face issues of state, issues of progress and development, because if this all goes south and both these men begin to air their dirty linen of years gone by this country will simply grind to a halt.

I said in the run up to the 2015 elections that this corruption thing was simply a waste of time. Everyone past and present stole. How can you then run a democracy, build a government and move the nation forward if you sincerely want to fight corruption by these needless battles. It is impossible. There will be no one left including Mr. President if it is sincere and impersonal. It was bound to be targetted, selective and hidden under a cloak of blackmail and intrigue. There were bound to be waivers for the faithful and wars for the fiends. Mr. President was bound to dine with the devil so he was bound to fail.

If this is to end well for both men, they should just cease fire and maintain their ranks.

You people forget Aluu 4 so easily.
Yeah, it could be possible that the so called victim did a quick one and turned tables on a man and lady perhaps coming to collect a debt or something. In a traumatised society as ours the people will act without caution. And that is why the rule of law should always prevail and be seen to prevail. Our society is fast going south. Today you can get anyone arrested, humiliated and even charged to court based on mere accusations of heresay as seen at all levels. The efforts we put in 'self help' is better spent in institution building and the demand for a right and just society. Let us fight for all.

When he was telling 'Dutch' (Sly Stallone) he needed more money, a bigger cut to take care of family needs ( Expendables 2), one wonders if he was making veil references to his personal health needs as the movie series is full of cryptic, comedic sound bites and messages on the personal status of the actors and their professional outlooks.
