So sad..... Am not in support of police killing protesters even if am not in support of the reason the protesters are protesting.

I also don't believe police should use weapon on armless protesters, but this shite people are dangerous terrorist who just want to attract undue sympathy. They carried gun and attacked police and seriously wounded two officers in the process. They should not be handled with kid's glove.

Sports / Re: Nigeria Vs South Africa: AFCON Quarter Final (2 - 1) Full Time by Scetrocom: 3:36pm On Jul 07, 2019
Arsenalholic:
Nigerians haff started.

"Walkover" "South Africa are our perennial wives" bla bla bla.

This is how you people make mouths before games, at the end you get disappointed. Learn to tone down.

There were FOUR key things that impressed me about South Africa against Egypt:

Their PRESS : They made life uncomfortable for Egypt with a "modern" press as the Egyptians tried to play out from the back.

This could be problematic for us. Neither the duo of Ekong or Omeruo are very assured on the ball. And we are renowned for making back passes too much. That should be something to take note of.

The Hold Up Play of Mathiba: [/b]The guy was a beast up front against the physical Hegazi. Held play well and brought in the likes of Percy Tau, Lorch and the midfielders into the game.

Nigerian defenders have to be really physical against him.

[b]Their One-touch Football:
Not even the more technically astute North African teams have played the kind of pass-and-move football the South Africans played at times.

To be honest. It was thrilling.

That kind of passing can cut a defense into two very quickly. We have to be on guard.

[b]Defensive Organization: [/b]That man in midfield, Furman, protected the defense SUPERBLY. And the defense played their part too.

In the end, Nigeria possess more than enough firepower to win this game. But it will NOT be a walk over like many are already claiming all over social media.

We play a different style of football from Egypt. And that counts for a lot.

I HOPE of course, the Eagles carry the day.


You've said it all. With their superb counter attack and almost impenetrable defence, they will give us a good run for our money. If we play that rubbish we played against Cameroon, they will surely beat us.

Sports / Re: Osaze Odewimgwe's Epic Response To A South African Fan by Scetrocom: 12:15pm On Jul 07, 2019
Arsenalholic:
I really wish Nigerian fans will tone down the bragging. Just allow the boys get to it and give it their best shot

One thing is crystal clear: this South African team is MILES better than the one we walloped in 2004. Plus our team is weaker compared to the Super Eagles team of 2004.

I was in awe watching the Bafana Bafana against Egypt. It was easily the most interesting game I'VE WATCHED at the tournament yet. They PRESSED Egypt and played some intricate, top-notch pass and move combinations that carved Egypt apart. That was nice to see.

I hope our coach finally gets the memo and unleash our new golden boy, Chukwueze from the get-go. Just as Percy Tau will occupy Aina, I would like Chukwueze to occupy that Lanthi guy in RSA's "3" position.

In the end, I hope we come up with a game plan that wins the game and moves us to the next stage. Up The Eagles!

Unarguably, this SA team is far better than our team in every department. They have one of the best defence in this tournament. If they could rattle Egypt the way they did, it will take miracle for us to escape unscathed if we play against them the way we played against Cameroon. We beat Cameroon because their team too is nothing to write home about.

HT Nigeria 1 - 2 Cameroon

We were lost at the midfield in the first half.. Iwobi is no where to be found.. Ighallo I not defending nor attacking

This is the worst Nigeria team I have ever seen. Iwobi is zero. We can't play good corner kick or free kick. Our defenders keep on clearing ball for the waiting opponents and our striker do not understand the location of Cameroon net. The most provocative is the Cameroon second goal. I was just telling my friend why do we have six players trying to prevent Cameroon keeper from passing ball to player? What if they send long ball. I have not finished my statement when the ball entered our net.

He's very strong and can run well. But he plays with his leg than Hus brain. Poor corner kick, poor cross and poor attempt at goal.
Sports / Re: Nigeria Vs Guinea: AFCON 2019 (1 - 0) Full Time by Scetrocom: 3:46pm On Jun 26, 2019
If iwobi is going to be our problem today, is better to remove him. Withing the first 13 minutes, he has committed up to 5 blunders. He missed 2 chances to put us ahead. He committed 3 blunder passes in which one of them nearly give guinea a lead. I hope he will get settled as the game is progressing.

Politics / Re: British Court seized Abacha loot worth £211m by Scetrocom: 2:48pm On Jun 04, 2019
If buhari can say Abacha is not corrupt, then his own definition of corruption is quite different from what any reasonable person will think, and only God knows how much buhari himself must have looted from our treasury. Apart from those collected by the previous governments( Obj,yaradua and GEJ),about 100billion Abacha loot was recovered last year by buhari from swiss govt. That money is a subject of controversy now as nobody could account for how it was spent within a very short time. As far as I'm concerned, there is no difference between APC and PDP as far as treasury looting is concerned.

bad step.

First 24hrs:

*He annouces on the acceptance speech he can't pay 30k minimum wage as all state don't earn the same and Oyo state don't have money

* Ends 3000 a year levy (365days) students pays to their schools for mentainance and other Service to ease burden on federal allocation, and make Parents contribute abit to give public school proper runing

*Dessolves constituitedly elected LGA bosses, and closest level of goverment to the rural people far from state capital

I can smell unnecessary sentiment here.

Did his predecessor paid 18k minimum wage? The answer is NO. And yet he still owed workers backlogs of salary and arrears.

The local govt executives dissolved were not elected, but were all handpicked by the outgoing governor. For the past 8 years all local government were pocketed by Ajimobi which resulted into total absence of any meaningful project at local government level.

What every Nigeria is clamouring for is free and qualitative basic education and payment of 3k o'er student negates this. Besides, our education sector is in total mess in term of quality and infrastructure despite the payment of that 3k. Ajimobi has done his own best the way he knows how to do it. If there are gaps here and there noted by the new governor, let him correct it and give us digital and transparent governance that will put Oyo state in the place of honour we deserve.

Happy new year NL.
I am posting this here because i really need help and i know a lot of people visit this section. Please i need urgent help as i don't want to continue like this in this 2019. Don't come and start insulting me please.

My problem is that i easily get angry and my anger doesn't go away easily. Very little things make me angry. Things that are not supposed to make me angry.
I can live in a room with a person for one year or even more without saying a word to the person just because he/she angered or did something bad to me.

I'm a quiet guy. People say i'm an introvert. I always try my best to avoid trouble. I am in my mid twenties buy have never been in a relationship.

This my problem of easily getting angry and keeping malice has been troubling me. I don't like it but still can't stop it. It is affecting my relationship with my family and close friends. And how can i even go into a relationship with this issue i'm having.
I find it very difficult to completely forgive.
I always envy those who are sociable and who don't easily get angry. I always wish to be like them.

Please i need your help/advice. Please this is not a spiritual problem, so don't start telling me about deliverance.
I would appreciate if this can be moved to the front page.
Thanks.

Having sex in the public is bad and immoral. There is no religion that supports such ignoble behaviour. But there is something we need to take note of. "During the month of ramadan" this phrase makes it look as if they were apprehended for contravening a religion law, saria in particular. When did NSCDC become saria police? Can't they be arrested for constituting public nuisance rather than bringing religion to the whole thing? Nigeria is a secular state and her security agents are not being funded from taxpayers money to advance the course of any religion. Authority concerned should take note.

That's a wrong call. Police cannot help you to secure your account. Listen to what people are telling you here. Go to any branch of your bank nearest to you, tell them to block you account from making any payment before it is too late. If they are not attending to you, make some noise and tell them you want to speak with the manager. They will quickly listen to you. Leave police out for now.

It saddening when you see semi literates like Atiku, educated treasury looters like Tinubu, Fashola, Wike, Obasanjo living like Sultans of oil rich Arab nations while millions are dying of hunger. Tinubu said he is richer than Osun State and he is right. Atiku with just a Diploma from ABU is richer than each of the states in Nigeria. imPatience Jonathan cannot even pronounce her account balance, the figures are too long for her comprehension. Atiku said that Obasanjo told him that he(Obasanjo) had only 20,000 bal in his account when he was released from prison after Abacha's death, yet today, Obasanjo is richer than any state in Nigeria. This is same for most of the heartless politicians across parties.

But, I know, one day, one very day, very very soon, the Nigerian people will revolt and take their country back from the generational looters in PDP, APC and all other mushroom party. Nigerian people will set themselves free one day.

God will bless you for this write up. Looters are concentrated in both major political parties and we must be prepared to confront them and revolt against them.

How can you pump prime an economy suffering from stagflation? It will simply spike up inflation and the CBN will be forced to increase interest rates to mop up excess money and cool down inflation. That's why lending rates are so high.

A different route would have made sense.

One,the pegging of the Naira to the dollar by Buhari worsened the downturn caused by the collapse in crude oil prices. This plunged the economy into a very severe recession lasting 6 quarters.

The steps government should have taken are these:

1. End the multiple exchange rate policy which screams quacks are in charge of running the economy and this destroys investors confidence. It also creates distortions in the economy, deprives the 3 tiers of government revenue and is a major source of corruption today.

2. Slash company tax to 12%.and end withholding tax on dividends.

This will encourage both local and foriegn investments into the country. Low taxes is a proven formula for fast economic growth. That's the secret of Ireland today and it's also helping Central European economies as well

The above 2 would be enough to revive the economy and make it grow by at least 6% annually for years.

I quite agree with you.
In addition government should reduce the cost of governance which is very high and makes it difficult for meaningful progress. We don't need to keep borrowing only for politicians in govt to corner the money by fraudulent means.
Reduce the cost of governance drastically.
Use the money saved to solve power problems once and ensure we can refine our fuel at home. This will get rid of subsidy and bring down pump price.
If these are done, expect foreign direct investment
to increase leading new industries springing up and jobs being generated.
