Wenger Said Adebayor left for the money, while Adebayor claimed he was asked to leave by Wenger.

I don't know who is telling the truth between them and I will try as much as possible not to take sides.

I don't resent Adebayor for leaving, but I resent him for that childish run across the field which was actually a disrespect to the fans irrespective of what transpired between him and Wenger.

While it is true that Wenger asked him to leave, it was because Adebayor was fraternizing with City and using them as a bait during negotiations with Arsenal which Wenger got tired of. He never thought Wenger would ask him to leave and that shocked him.

He is trying to use Wenger to deflect from the fact that he was negotiating both sides and using City to frustrate Arsenal's negotiation with him. Arsenal will sit with him and advance negotiations, only for him to return to the table asking for more because he had his agent also negotiating with City. Wenger knew what was happening and kicked him out.

So Wenger was right, Adebayor left because of money.

BlueRayDick:
Maybe Kanu was engaged elsewhere sha, cos he has always associated with the club as a legend.

I'm also not pro-Nasri, but we can't deny he had some good time with us before he left for City.

Nasri and the Dutch snake are dead to me. I can tolerate others but you see those 2? Na.. I hope to see Piano Man back at the Emirates someday, he was a workhorse for us.

City ripped our team apart with transfers for Nasri, Sagna, Toure. We suffered the most from their poaching and desperately hope they get punished.

BlueRayDick:
Kolo Toure no come?

I guess it will be awkward for him to wear the arsenal kits this week and next week he's wearing city kits on the sideline

Kolo Toure is there, behind Poldi. Na him dey for back back for left side with him salt and pepper beards.

BlueRayDick:
All you've said is very true, but I won't rule out the fact that some teachers actually don't know how to teach.

In my secondary school we had different teachers at different times who took us some subjects and made most students dislike those subjects because of how terrible they were at teaching. I attended a government secondary school where all our teachers are civil servants, most of whom do the barest minimum to impart knowledge. I guess some of them were just university graduates who got teaching jobs out of necessity for self-preservation and not because they studied education-based courses nor have passion for teaching.

Some of the subjects they made me dislike from SS1 to SS2; by the time I attended an external tutorial for 6 months in SS2, I wrote GCE and cleared all my papers while doing B3,B2 in two of such subjects. The difference was the teachers and the their teaching methods in that external tutorial.

In the University too, I know a couple of lecturers who are actually very terrible educators. I believe those ones were just brilliant students who made good grades during their bachelor's degree, had PhD grade in their Masters and proceeded to obtain their PhD. They are people whom you will read their journal articles and commend their scholarly work, but when they teach in class they suck!

The professional aspect of teaching in Nigeria is quite poor, I have to admit. I had similar experiences while I was growing and learning, particularly in secondary school. I really worry that we don't have actual professional teachers who have gone through the rigors of becoming educators from tertiary institutions teach our children, especially in primary and secondary settings. Like you rightly alluded to, most of the teachers at the basic level are usually university graduates who are not equipped to be actual educators because teaching transcends being in the classroom. How many of our primary and secondary schools actually employ graduates from our Federal and State colleges of Education? I mean over 80% of NYSC corpers are deployed to primary and secondary schools, even those with 3rd class and Pass (No disrespect to anyone).

We really need to get our basic education right and it starts with employing the right educators who have been trained specifically for the purpose of being career teachers in the field of academia. You'd notice I am focusing primarily on basic education versus post-secondary because if we get it right in this setting, post-secondary would be easier for students. Also, it is the same problem in post-secondary settings, where to your point, people get lecturing job without the requisite training needed to actually be a professional teacher. People use connections to get lecturer slots and are have absolutely no idea what it means to lecture. For avoidance of doubt, not all post-graduate students or degrees should teach. If your Ph.D. doesn't include courses in college teaching, including practicum hours then the student has no business becoming an instructor.

I saw this topic and felt compelled to bring it here to share my thoughts, read other thoughts as well.

While the OP and those who support his position make some good points, they are forgetting the OP is responsible for teaching only his child in comparison to the teacher who has to teach a lot of children. There is also a misconception that being a professional teacher is limited to just teaching and because I teach my own child better, I can do a better job than the teacher who is supposed to be the professional.

Parents have the advantage of knowing the tendencies, temperament and unique dynamics of their own children, consequently, your own child should learn better from you. Children may also behave better at home and be more compliant at learning than at school.

A teacher is trying to teach a classroom with children who have different personalities, tendencies and learning dynamics, so it is more challenging for the teacher to achieve perfect teaching techniques for every child in that classroom and this is where collaboration comes.

Parents should be sharing thoughts, what works at home rather than expecting teachers to be the only source of learning. Parents should also be active in the academics of their children, particularly when they are still in nursery, primary and secondary school.

How exactly dem wan break this news to this man family?

BlueRayDick:
Even a professor of physics at that moment is not doing any mental permutations as to whether the man can open the door or not. The idea of a fellow passenger making attempt to open the exit door is enough to send a Nobel Laurete in physics into panic mode.

Na who no dey on that flight (like we that watched the video on the internet) fit dey reason the chances of success of the man's attempt.

Even Isaac Newton go enter flight, flee or fight mode!

User09:
Yeah I agree with and even modified my analogy to capture it properly. My issue was with the cabin crew who should know better plus all the plenty overeactions. Of course that should be an emergency landing cos of the security risk even if they tied him down.

Yea, that is why I sought to understand your position first.

Still on still though, the werey for collect from me, even if na one correct elbow decking.

User09:
BS on the possibility of achieving what he set out to do. Hence the panic and noise wasnt needed.

It should have just been amusing - like watching a toddler trying to push open an heavy exit door

Mid flight, Yes, (which is what it seemed like during this incident), I agree with you that it is nearly impossible to activate the emergency exit door because of the differential air pressure.

However, this is you assuming everyone on that commercial plane is science inclined or understand physics to the point of feeling safe. He may not achieve his attempt but his behavior caused significant chaos, disrupting the flight and compromising the safety of everyone on the flight.

The incident could have forced an emergency landing irrespective.

User09:
Physics calls BS on this.

Almost impossible for this to happen due to the pressure differential between the inside and outside of the plane. Let them go take care of the crazy guy instead of all the noise. Especially the cabin crew that should know better

Make I fess understand. Are you calling BS on the possibility of the story or what?

Just look at Saint Buhari VIII

BlueRayDick:
Update on the guy who attempted to open exit door of plane mid air.

They are saying it's a Kenya airways enroute Lagos from Nairobi. According to this poster, the man died eventually on the flight.

If this account is true, I hope the guy doesn't have drugs in his system either as a user or trafficker. Serious investigations need to be carried out to actually clear the air on what really was wrong with him.

As in. Not being in the plane and watching the video, I dey feel serious rage ; now imagine ẹ being in the plane to experience my life flashing in front of me. I will most likely knock him unconscious as soon as they restrain him.

If he smoke colos before he board plane, no be me wey no follow am smoke go come follow am die o.

The anger na me and you eh. He literally wanted to end the lives and happiness of generations by that action.

Omo, na why I no dey fit sleep whenever I fly, even if na long flight. From the moment I enter airport to when I finally board and flight don start, the way I dey use scan people pass wetin TSA dey do for here. I don't know how some people do it, they take medications to sleep throughout the flight because of anxiety.

God abeg oh!

iamoyindamola:
I no wan know the madness way enter am, if I can't fight him I go finish him neck with my teeth
Which kind nonsense be that

I say after the restraining, I go beg them make dem seat am by my side for the rest of the flight. Na me e wan end just like dat.. I go kukuma help go nearer to the grave before flight land. Werey!

A passenger allegedly tried to open the exit door of a Nigerian airline flight mid-air.

Omo, if I dey on this flight lásán, after dem Don restrain the weyrey, I go first give am like 7 heavy blows make he first lose consciousness. I go pour all my anger with the Nigerian system on top him head.

I get him partly.. You can attack the candidate but when you start expanding that to his ethnic group then I will have a problem

bi/Tinubu is the useless person not Ibo/Yoruba but some people in order to shade the candidate they throw a blanket on the group

E.g I don't know how Yorubas dey think wey dem go vote a Tinubu. Yoruba na him dey drag the country back because of voting Tinubu

There was a lot of this in the buildup to 2023 elections that in some quarters online, that it became fashionable to insult Yorubas, the culture, Yoruba elders, Yoruba rulers flippantly

Egbon, we will be deceiving ourselves if we act like people don't hide behind politics to do this. It annoys me when I see people use their disapproval of a candidate to take shots at his/her tribe, whether they call it cruise or whatever, it is irritating. The culture and traditions of our people is strong for some of us, we take it seriously and personal. Not everyone is proud of every aspect of our respective cultures but to suddenly amplify it because it is election season is what i detest.

I can't sit down here and pretend like Igbos who support Asiwaju don't get a lot of hate from our people or Yorubas who don't support Asiwaju, especially Obidients don't get insulted and that is where the bias is showing behind politics. I am one who despite unpopular opinions, still hold Asiwaju in very high regards, it is why I call him Asiwaju.

With that said, we all have to be smart in separating politics from culture, culture is such a sensitive topic for some of us. To those who are indifferent about it, it's fine but understand it also means a lot to others. Again, by no means am I saying people can't speak about other cultures, but do it in a productive manner that also respects it.

izzou:
Chief...

Your comment, howbeit understandable, has a lot of emotions which shouldn't be so.

Firstly, I'll say that it's all cruise and banter. Anybody's online opinion about any tribe doesn't change or make it less of what they are.

Secondly, the Genesis of any Igbo vs Yoruba discussion always comes from Spy and Raums banter. They are both a menace to themselves, and others just pick one thing to bant on. We will not also ignore that Spy sef has been giving Raum hot hot too.

My point is that, in my opinion, e never reach to dey this emotional. We all have been here since 2023, and at least, here has been the least toxic space I can find on NL.

No take am to heart, Chief

You call it cruise but it is becoming a recurring theme, that is predictable, especially during this season. Also, it is not only Spy and Raumdeuter, I understand both and never involve myself with their bants, but we are seeing more people position themselves as arbiters of justice, whenever the topic has any inclination to the Igbos. Call it emotional, it's fine but I can see through the bias of many positions.

Realmrsean:
So you decided that you and people here that are not Igbo, it is in your best knowledge to meddle into the deepest cultural roots of a tribe you re not part of, which has been in existence way you were born and which little or no part of thie alleged tribes men has countered or advocated a change for.

You and other non Igbo tribes in this thread decides that it is in your best interest to orchestrate a change of a culture?

Since this idiotic moronic issue has been in this thread since inception, I haven't come across any Igbo person that is against this issue if women not inheriting ancestral land

It's only non Igbos or would I say, mostly yorubas that has been beating and nagging about this Igbo culture.. even when they themselves isn't part and parcel of the said tribe nor culture

Whenever every topic on this thread ultimately finds its way back to "Igbo", just look at the date and time of the year and I promise you, it is around election season. One would think we are the only tribe in the entire nation to trigger such during this period. We all know this has everything to do with a strong contender in Obi being on the ballot.

I have maintained that anyone is welcome to drag Obi, question his records, integrity, intelligence and ability to lead Nigeria, afterall he put himself in that space and it comes with the territory. However, I will not look the other way when you start using it to push hurtful and dangerous narratives about his tribe or hide behind your bias to propagate lies about Igbos, just because you see Obi's candidacy otherwise.

Candidate no sabi him own native language na Igbos fault.

Na that time people will remember that a Metropolitan State like Lagos appointed an Igbo person as a member of cabinet, as though Igbos are the only non-indigenes in that government. Look around and you'd see appointees from other states and tribes in that same government but everyone becomes blind and deaf. But that Igbo appointment has to be amplified.

Na that time everybody go remember all the traditional rites/ Omenala of Ndi Igbo and tell you which one is good and which one is bad, like their own tribes dey perfect. From inheritance to marriage to how we eat, eat, breath and anything under the sun. We know a widow/ wives in Yoruba land are not allowed to inherit properties of their husbands, are the wives not women also? Or do female children in Yoruba land have a different gender from wives/widow? A widow's inheritance is through the children but of course everyone turns a blind eye because Agenda must Agend.

Na that time everybody will attribute "Lagos is no man's land" to Igbos, forgetting a South Westerner actually perpetuated the idea. It is not any different from when Major Kaduna Nzeogwu magically becomes a full fledged Igbo man on the 15th of January every year and we gladly accept him as a broher! After the 15th of January, he goes back to being a Delta man, a Kaduna or even Benin man.

Na that time places like Okota, Ojo, Festac, Alaba International Market, Ladipo go hot for news..

At the end of the day, we all know what we are doing, all of us!

Jamiuokolaa:
So women should be considering inheritance prospects of potential husbands before accepting marriage proposals?

Women, irrespective of tribe already do that bro and they don’t need to even spell it, especially if she is marrying from a rich family or a family where her father in-law has a lot of properties/ land trust me, she don do the math already.

This na normal doings for women now. Men don’t make as much considerations in comparison to women when it comes to marriage. E go shock you the kain considerations that made some women end up with their men.

You Neva see category of Women when dey choose to the point of preferring men without a mother, so they don’t have to share their man’s affection, attention and money? Some will shun you if you are too close to your sisters. E come be inheritance opportunity in the family?

I saw that post and I wondered once again, is this a case of Nigeria is poor or we are poor at managing resources.

liveLongNprospa:
Corruption is why NNPC is paying 11trillion naira for security services 😂😂😂

Do you know the ironic part of all these? We are paying Tompolo 11 trillion to essentially perform the duties of our Navy and Army. Worsestill, we are paying them more than we are paying our actual military personnel.

Don’t get me wrong, I get it, it is part of keeping the Niger Delta at peace with little or no disruption of oil production, protect our oil infrastructure but it reeks of massive mismanagement of resources.
