sombody cursed chelsea, all their stars are out , mikel, ballack, essien,maybe drogba

Nigeria have called up uncapped Brown Ideye to replace John Obi Mikel in their squad for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ after the Chelsea midfielder was ruled out of the tournament due to injury.

Brown, who plays for Sochaux in France, was one of the unlucky seven players to be dropped from the Super Eagles squad earlier this week when coach Lars Lagerback trimmed his list to 23.

Despite being yet to play for the Super Eagles at senior international level, Ideye has impressed during his time with the Under-20s, who he helped reach the quarter-final of the 2007 FIFA World Cup™ in Canada. The Nigerians wrap up their preparations for the finals with a friendly against North Korea in Johannesburg tomorrow.

Nigeria have suffered a blow less than a week away from the start of the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ with star midfielder John Obi Mikel having been left out of the squad because he did not want to aggravate a knee injury. The 23-year-old Chelsea star, who follows club team-mates Michael Ballack, Michael Essien and possibly Didier Drogba in missing out on the finals because of injury - is likely to be replaced by one of the seven players dropped from the squad at their training camp in England last Monday.

"We have dropped Mikel from the World Cup squad after he told the team he did not want to put his career at risk as his knee injury has yet to fully heal after a recent surgery," disclosed top team official Emmanuel Attah. Mikel, capped over 30 times by his country, had been a huge doubt for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ as he last played for Chelsea in April.

Mikel was the last player to join up with the rest of the squad at their training camp in Essex, England, last week and in South Africa, he cut short his workout with the team on two consecutive days. He did not play in the team's two build-up games against Saudi Arabia and Colombia.

Nigeria have been drawn in Group B alongside two-time world champions Argentina, UEFA EURO 2004 winners Greece and 2002 FIFA World Cup™ semi-finalists South Korea. They play their first match on 12 June against Argentina.

he needs prayers

let their hausa brothers help them, besides, they were part of the nigerian northerners untill those greedy brits came and drew lines, ad split the same people between two countries

okocha, oliseh, amunike, kanu, amokachi, yekeni, agahowa, taribo, odemwingie,

nice paintings

dat senator is a rapist

dont build it too close to cameroon, unless those greedy people would claim it

great idea, this allows for competition, which is always a good idea. local governments and governoprs who are not doing their jobs would be exposed. there would be more electricity bill now for many people, im under the impression that lagos would do well in provision of electricty for most people

eneojo(igala)-man of God

i would rather die

this man is a sleek corrupt politician, better than the previous ones tho

stupid obasanjo giving cameroon the island, they should gone to war over it naw, lets see wat cameroon would do wen we send millions of troops over that boarder,

i wont b surprised if AL- Qaida is even funding this mess, those bloody ppl are always looking to destabilize every thing, Islam is a blood thirsty, close minded, ignorant religion that is destroying the world, it should be eradicated, they are always quick to fight for their god. after murdering thousands of people, they are expecting seven virgins in heaven, hisssss

kumuyi

kogi all day every day,

hhh

my beloved Nigeria cannot split, the hausas/muslims r da main problem innaija, they r blood thirsty and always fighting for Allah. why cant Allah fight for them, i would love for nigeria to stay together, and i would love for the religious clashes to stop, and i would love for sharia law to end,

im igala, but i love the igbos, my cousins are igbo, and i think they rep nigeria well in terms of entertainment, and a lot more, i prefer they stay in nigeria, no to biafra

if they are, then half of nigeria is Jewish, imagine millions of black Nigerians moving to isreal, lol, but its possible tho,
