Hi guys, this is a fun little game I thought up, no tribalism intended. So the point of the game is, which region in Nigeria has the best footballers?

To play, you create a full team of the best 11 players and 6 subs from your Region. We'll be using the 6 Geo-political zones of Nigeria.

Your list can include both current and ex players. I start with Niger Delta 11 with a 4 3 3 formation:

Forwards:
Finidi George (Rivers)
Yakubu Aiyegbeni (Edo)
Peter Odemwingie (Edo)

Midfielders
Wilson Oruma (Delta)
Oghenekaro Etebo (Delta)
Sunday Oliseh (Delta)

Defenders:

Efe Ambrose (Edo)
Joseph Yobo (Rivers)
Taribo West (Rivers)
William Troost Ekong (Cross River)

Keepers

Vinvent Enyeama (Akwa Ibom)
Daniel Akpeyi (Delta)

Subs

Victor Ikpeba (Edo)
Julius Agahowa (Edo)
Nosa Igiebor (Edo)
Odion Ighalo (Edo)
Dickson Etuhu (Delta)
Victor Osimhen (Edo)


Standby:
Thompson Oliha (Edo)
Augustine Eguavoen (Delta)
Stephen Keshi (Delta)



Can your region beat this team?

If you are not ripe enough to contribute in this matter, please don't.

Alot of things happened and Jo cannot pick out westerhof as the culprit here.
Another account said Jo was pained cos he was left out by clemence from recipient of winners medal at the nation's cup.

yeah i remember westerhof later admitted he gave bonfrere his medal to paucify him.

I don't hold brief for westerhof but in an interview years ago, he revealed the kind of person Bonfrere Jo is. So i am not surprised about this allegation from Bonfrere Jo.

Quite an interesting story. Even though you have to work and walk in the dark alone, don't give up. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

If there is any Governor I can take my time to pray and fast for,it should be Seyi Makinde. Thank God for his quick recovery from coro.

Good gesture, he should stay alive to lead the people. The pacesetter GSM

The teacher lays the foundation. It is the teacher's foundation that will determine whether you will meet the lecturer(get admitted into university). The lecturer ushers you into the next phase. If the foundation is faulty, you can't get into the next phase. Teachers are the best.

Good health to the pacesetter GSM

In BAYELSA, sagbama LGA have some Urhobo communities like ofoni and odoni. There is one isoko community called Anibeze.

Adaogwashi1:
I read how so Nigerians were praising the confuse Oyo state Governor for not locking down Oyo state,this was a governor that organized a rally few weeks ago in the midst of coronavirus and he was later tested positive for coronavirus,who knows how many good people of Oyo state that went to the rally that has already gotten the virus but the confused governor is talking about Czech republic style or does he think watching CNN is enough to prevent coronavirus.This same mindset is what got Italy,usa and Spain into mess and Oyo state is going that same way if care is not taken,I just pity some people that are praising him and cursing other Governors that has taken time to stop the speared of the virus in their States,the truth is that if Nigeria go the way Oyo state is going many poor people will die because Nigeria don't have the capacity to do mass testing and it will come down to testing only politicians,influence Nigerians and rich men before the poor masses will be considered,I have not seen nor hear the isolation centers or testing centers Oyo state governor has built but he want to go Czech republic style.Two weeks of economic lockdown
is better than infected lives,You are free to insult me but God will punish anybody that will blame the President when things goes out of hand in Oyo state.







I still remain Ada ogwashi

He is not confused. You don't understand this man called GSM. The Ibadan rally was a wrong decision yes! But he apologized and set up a commitee to curtail the spread of the covid19pandemic. Despite being a billionaire, he is quite empathetic and have the masses at heart. This pandemic will pass away, sooner we will appreciate his deeds for he is a visionary leader. The pacesetter Seyi Makinde.

DontBullshitMe:
Incompetent leader/Populist governor.

He was busy organising rally and tongue lashing Ajimobi and APC rather than take proactive steps and measure at limiting the spread of Coronavirus in Oyo state.

Now, he's a victim.

Every man for himself. I have no words of prayer.

he is a good man. I wish him speedy recovery . The pacesetter GSM
