There's a reason why a top Ligue 1 club like Monaco bought George...he has played in two champions league tournaments so far at just 18 (one with Antwerp when he was 17) where he
scored against Barcelona and now again. The ceiling of such player is already way higher than you can imagine. And your question as to why George Ilenikhena hasn't scored yet in Ligue 1 is pretty disingenuous.. You can't just expect a 18 yr old kid to be a sure starter yet in his debut season at a new club (except you're a kid prodigy like Lamine Yamal), you can see how Monaco are easing him in slowly, and the fans highly rate him as well.

Iheanacho was good maybe 5 years ago, until he was relegated to a third leg striker behind old man Vardy and Patson Daka of all players...Sevilla only got him as gamble for free cause he was on no contract fee, now we've seen how badly he has regressed...he only makes sub appearances for Sevilla with no single goal or assists.

I'm a fan of Iheanacho , Awoniyi etc but truth is these guys are too injury prone and inconsistent, unfortunately for them football just like life waits for nobody.

forgiveness:


Which current form? George never score shingbin for Ligue 1. How is he better?

Abi because he scored against 1 man down Barcelona team?

Maja wey dey Championship. Wetin em do when he was at Ligue 1?

Abeg, na bring down tactics. Nothing more.

Iheanacho is not finished. If he is, a top team like Sevilla no go buy am. Do you think you know more than their scouts?

Asaba 2024: Ex-Olympic champion adopts 8-year-old Nasarawa wrestling sensation

From Abel Leonard, Lafia

The Bayelsa State Commissioner for Sports, President of the Nigeria Wrestling Federation, and former Olympic Champion, Hon Daniel Igali, has pledged to sponsor the training of Juan Emmanuel, an 8-year-old wrestling prodigy from Nasarawa State.

Speaking during a briefing with sports writers on Wednesday at the ongoing 8th National Under-15 Youth Games in Asaba, Igali shared his admiration for Juan’s determination and enthusiasm. Despite competing in the 36kg weight category, she naturally belongs to the 32kg category, a testament to her resilience.

Igali, a former Olympic champion, emphasised the importance of nurturing young talent, pointing out that Juan’s age is ideal for proper grooming. As part of his commitment to her development, he expressed his intention to support her training journey.

After serving as President of the Wrestling Federation for 12 years, Igali announced he would not seek re-election. Reflecting on his tenure, he revealed that the federation had not received any government funding during this period. Instead, it relied on his personal contributions and support from board members to sustain the athletes’ training and participation in competitions.

In his assessment of Nigeria’s sports development, Igali identified several challenges. Key among them was the lack of financial support from the Federal Ministry of Sports, which only provides funding for competitions but not for long-term athlete development.

He noted that this has had a direct impact on the performance of athletes, who often suffer from insufficient preparation due to inadequate training programmes.

“Nigeria is falling behind in sports because there is no investment in long-term training. We don’t have enough coaches for Cadet, Under-17, and Under-20 athletes, which affects their preparation for international competitions,” Igali remarked.

He also pointed out the lack of international referees within the Wrestling Federation, attributing this to budget constraints and limited training opportunities.

As a way forward, Igali called for a more structured approach to sports development in Nigeria. He cited examples from China and Russia, where governments play a key role in facilitating corporate sponsorship for athletes and sporting bodies.

He stressed the need for a comprehensive sports policy that focusses on adequate funding and investment in grassroots programmes to produce world-class athletes.

“The time has come for Nigeria to adopt a strategic sports development policy that goes beyond funding competitions. We need to invest in our young talents from the grassroots and encourage corporate sponsorships,” Igali urged.

In the bank or in EY will you not do calculations?

You can't be taking risk of telling a Masscom graduate to put 17% on something and they will be looking at you like ode. You think it's a joke but most non stem people cannot do basic everyday calculations required in those jobs.

STEM course is a test of natural intelligence. It is proof that you can handle some concepts and calculations. Go and check all JAMB highest scores, they all end up in STEM. The only social science that intelligent students go on to do is Law or economics. So once you see STEM, LAW or Economics on their degree, you know a process of natural selection has already taken place to weed out the dumb ones from the smart ones and you can go ahead and interview the smart ones instead of wasting time..

You think its a joke but employers do discriminate on this basis and I take this very serious in my personal life. I have been fighting my niece for the last year. She is a prodigy but refusing to do Maths A Level. She is talking of Philosophy, Sociology A Levels, Biology and bla blah blah. I said Biology is good for Medicine but at your level of genius, you must include Maths to really rubber stamp your genius so employers can see it. Any Tom, Dick or Harry could score well in Philosophy by writing long essay, but science is where genius is proven.

This is her GCSE result below. 7 is equivalent to A, 8 is a A* and 9 is A**.

How will someone with this kind of result reduce themself to the level of an average Jane by taking sme sme courses that any Chinyere can do. You must show Maths A Level, and even if she goes on to do Medicine or Science in Uni, the Maths A Level will give her the foundation to be great in any STEM course she does.

Which one is dexterous?

Is it not that they will first train them in those jobs ni? If u are an engineering graduate who gets employed in EY or First bank, u will have to undergo training like everyone else. All those talk about dexterous is just to massage ur STEM ego. The same training they will give a Yoruba education graduate is what they will give a mech engineering graduate who has been drafted into their graduate trainee program.

The crux of the matter is , most STEM degrees are useless in Nigeria because there are no much STEM jobs waiting for them in the labor market. so, I don't the need for continuous bashing of social sciences job. Maybe if u were talking about labour market in the UK, US and the west in general sha it will make sense.

Paul was benefiting from it, those two sees themselves as family ever since Peter decide to be "prodigy" brother marrying a Yoruba woman...
God has he ways sha Peter is still happy married to his Yoruba demon while the saint Igbo wife Paul married has left imagine

dejol88:


If Jude was cornering the money as alleged by Peter why isn’t paul calling him out too? Or if Jude was eating the money supposedly meant for three of them, why isn’t Paul complaining too?
If Jude and Paul were sharing the money without Peter, why isn’t Peter calling him out but singling out Jude?

I have yet to see any rapper that has a better verse than Eminem in a song.
