Arsenal target Taiwo, Bridge

JANUARY 2, 2012 BY AGENCY REPORTER 4 COMMENTS
Arsenal are reportedly considering a loan bid for AC Milan defender Taye Taiwo.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is looking sign a left-back on loan before the end of the month as he continues to be without the likes of Thomas Vermaelen, Kieran Gibbs and Andre Santos.

And according to the Sunday Mirror, Wenger will look to sign either Taiwo or Manchester City’s out-of-favour full-back Wayne Bridge.

Whether the Gunners are able to sign Bridge may depend osn whether City are prepared to let a player join a rival club.

Taiwo joined Milan from Marseille just six months ago, but was linked with a move to the Premier League prior to his move last summer, with Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United all believed to be showing interest before he decided to move to Italy.

Speaking last month, the 26-year-old hinted that he was ready to quit the club after being left on the bench for most of Milan’s games this season.

Taiwo told L’Equipe: “I am suffering every day because I don’t get to play football.

“I joined this club in order to play, but I have made only six appearances so far.

“I don’t understand how things work in Italy. Sometimes I even have to watch from the stands, but I really need to play in order to show what I can do.”

A true leader doesn't cry in public. Jonathan needs to go back to school.

When you cry, you embrace no hope.

you are silly!

Nigeria coach Keshi to recall Blackburn striker Yakubu

BBC Sport, Lagos
Yakubu scored twice on Saturday as Blackburn beat Manchester United
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi says he will recall Blackburn striker Yakubu Ayegbeni to the Super Eagles squad.
The 29-year-old has not been called by Nigeria since his horror miss against South Korea at the 2010 World Cup.
But with 12 goals in the Premier League so far this season, Keshi says he is prepared to bring Yakubu back.
"I want the best players in my squad and if the fifth top scorer in England is a Nigerian, then I want him as part of my team." Keshi told BBC Sport.
YAKUBU: DID YOU KNOW?
He used to play barefoot on the streets of Benin, Nigeria, until his brother gave him a pair of boots aged 12
Sir Alex Ferguson once told Harry Redknapp: "If you have a chance, get him. He's electric"
He trained at Derby County before moving to the Premier League
He joined Middlesbrough from Portsmouth in 2005 for £7.5m
His sporting heroes include tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams
"Yakubu is in a fantastic form, he is scoring goals and creating them in one of the best leagues in the world.
"If people want to live in the past with that one 'miss' at the World Cup, then football and time is the winner - I don't even remember that anymore.
"How do you blame a man for one mistake when his past and present record shows he is undoubtedly the best we have at the moment.
"If the people in England and Europe respect his performance and we don't - then there is a problem.
"Nothing is automatic with me, I will give him a chance to prove he can deliver like he is presently doing at club level and we'll take it from there."
Yakubu, 29, signed a three-year deal for Blackburn on transfer deadline day in August, ending a nightmare final three years at Everton.
A ruptured Achilles in 2008 put him out of the game for almost a year and he was never able to work his way back into manager David Moyes' plans, ending last season on loan at Leicester.
He made an immediate impact at Rovers, scoring twice on his debut in the 4-3 win against Arsenal, Blackburn's first win of the Premier League season.
The burly striker scored twice on Saturday as Blackburn stunned title holder Manchester United 3-2 to move from the bottom of the table.
I want the best players in my squad and if the fifth top scorer in England is a Nigerian, then I want him as part of my team."
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi
Nigeria's first competitive game in 2012 will be a Nations Cup qualifier in Kigali against Rwanda on February
The Super Eagles begin their quest for a place at the 2013 African Cup of Nations in South Africa.
Meanwhile, a locally-based Super Eagles squad will face 2012 African Cup of Nations bound Angola in a friendly at home on 11 January.
According to the spokesman of Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Ademola Olajire, a venue will be announced soon.
Coach Stephen Keshi told BBC Sport: "I want to give a chance to some of the players in the Nigerian league and this is a big chance for them,"
"I want a blend of foreign and local based players for the new look Super Eagles. Hopefully this will encourage healthy competition.

Lady Winona:
What is no ni?

Sagamite:
It is a phrase WizKid uses alot. Samklef is the producer of Wizkid.

"No ni" means "it is" or "as in". So when Wizkid wants to hype and promote his producer he saws "Samklef no ni", meaning "It is Samklef". The implicit benefit of it is that the "no ni" sounds funny but yet cool when used. It is a major asset of Wizkid's cool but authentic style. 2face has his own cool one - "Yes o". D'Banj - "fi le" (Leave it). Timaya - "See", "Hey", "Chai" and his crazy, lovely dance steps.

@topic

The girl is cute.

not an accurate translation of the phrase 'noni' - 'noni' or 'naa ni' actually means 'still the same', so when wizkid says 'samklef noni', he's saying 'it's still the same samklef'

Hello Nairalanders let no one trouble your emeotions.

The guy is not dead. He still accepted a friendship request from one "Fanta Jaycn" and two other people at 7:40pm yesterday. So what is all these hullablos!

how are you sure it wasn't someone accepting his request rather than him accepting someone's request?

@op, you did well, but by taken the pictures of the poor lady and posting it for the public to see, announcing your actions, you have already earned your reward. You haven't shown yourself to be a good christian

That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly - Matthew 6:4 (KJV)

Akwasi:
Who decides a pastor is fake? Is the man arrested because of fraud or because he is a "fake" pastor?

the title is misleading. nobody can determine who a real or a fake pastor is. the guy was arrested not because he claimed to be a pastor but because he duped his congregation

9ice move!

this is very pathetic !

National President, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor says that the Christmas Day bombing and the series of other attacks in northern Nigeria is a grand design to Islamise the nation.

Ayo Oritsejafor, CAN President
Responding to the Christmas Day attacks in different parts of the country which left hundreds of worshippers dead, Oritsejafor warned that what is happening in the nation was in fulfilment of the agenda to Islamise Nigeria.
According to him, Nigeria must brace up to face the truth that “there is a grand design to islamise the nation, and that is why Christian leaders would soon meet to address the issue frontally once and for all.
“Doubting Thomases should go back to history to find out how Egypt, Libya and most of the North African nations became Islamic countries.”
The CAN president therefore voted for a sovereign national conference to determine the future of the Nigerian project, saying “I don’t care what name you call it but definitely we cannot continue like this. Every day, I receive calls from pastors who are daily being denied their inalienable rights to worship their God and somebody will pacify me that the Nigerian problem is political and not religious.”
Oritsejafor, who was sad over the Christmas carnage said: “I am extremely angry. This is a barbaric and most uncivilised action of human beings in a civilised world. Even animals have respect for each other. It is inhuman. It is barbaric. It is satanic.”
“I wonder why certain characters are sponsoring these acts of violence against fellow human beings and go home without any feeling of guilt. I am not talking of people who are hired to carry out the dastardly acts but those who sponsor them. So, these people go home, eat and probably have children who they play with in their homes.
“Let us not deceive ourselves, as good as religion is, it can be a terrible thing because it is only religion that can give a man the conviction to do this kind of thing. It is incredible. Christmas is a day when over 80 million Nigerians join billions of fellow Christians across the globe to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Wouldn’t you just respect that?
“I don’t think anybody who cannot respect such a sacred date will have any respect for human life. It is totally barbaric and unacceptable. I am short of words to describe how I feel, because I finished the first service in my church and came to the office when I began to receive calls from different parts of the country of the shocking news of the attacks.
The cleric said he did not believe that the worsening insecurity situation in the country had ethnic colouration, adding that the reasons behind the attacks go beyond the election of President Goodluck Jonathan from a minority tribe in the country.
“When you talk about northern elders not being happy about the election of President Jonathan, what about northern elders who are not Muslims? Are they also sad that Jonathan is president? I don’t think so. There is a section in the North that is not happy and that is where we are not bold enough to face the truth. The truth is that, it is not the North that is not happy; it is a section of the North that is not happy.
“It is a segment of northern elders that are not happy with the election of President Jonathan; and some people will now say that I am inciting people; but these are the truths.”
Oritsejafor said Christian leaders would soon convene a meeting of all denominational leaders to review the security situation in the country and fashion an appropriate response to the menace of terrorism by the Islamic fundamentalist group known as Boko Haram.
He urged Nigerians to be patient and await the outcome of the parley of Christian leaders, which, according to him, will hold very soon, saying that the meeting is expected to address current sectarian violence across the northern part of the country.

H$LBroker:
That GEJ smile or laugh is actually on called for.

pro01:
I'm scandalized by this picture. What on earth does Goodluck find funny? It's bad enough that he foolishly admitted that crass barbarian into his presence, but why on earth is he grinning while shaking hands with the chief sponsor and spiritual leader of a group that massacred over 40 innocent Christians on Christmas Day? I'm speechless.

you are silly! there is what is called diplomatic language - GEJ does not have to frown to show that he is serious. When he is meeting a top dignitary, he has to be relaxed and vibrant. That's what diplomacy is all about  

my prediction for 2012 :

1. the mistake called Nigeria will disintegrate. 2012 will be the beginning of the end -
2. Super Eagles will begin their journey back to international prominence
3. There would be a lot of rioting and social upheavals in the land. Mass protests as a result of oil subsidy removal

[b][size=16pt]Evil, knowing you are HiV positive, and you con this innocent young lady into marriage when you are an atomic bomb waiting to go off - you will rot in 'HELL'.

Also, you want the Church that will be conducting the wedding not to know of your hellish Health status and devilish plans - satan, you can not win, for your soul is already rottening in hell!

And knowing you're HiV positive, I'm sure, you'd been sleeping with this innocent girl, haven't you?

So, out of your own selfishness and wickedness, you'd already condemned an innocent soul to hell and I ask, where will your wicked soul go to, after this life - agent of satan!

May I say this, if you hadn't already transmitted this deadly disease to her please, leave her alone to get on with her life and go meet your kind in hell where you belong. 

You are an agent of satan and that's why you want to take as many people as possible with you on your way to the Hades but you're a liar - for your powers, principalities and entities have been broken in Jesus Name, Amen! (Luk Chpt. 10 v 19)

I am only sorry for this poor and naive young lady without any knowledge of your Health status but the Lord knows your wicked and evil act and he has a word for you: 

The wicked shall be cut off in Jesus Name, Amen! (Psalm 37).

You see, this is what we are talking about - in fact, I don't blame you, I blame the culture!

The culture that pressurises women into unfruitful and unfulfilling marriages in order to avoid societal stigmatisation and name calling due to their 'singleton status' thereby, encouraging their men in taking advantage of their desperation to get married.

What an evil culture!!  A culture that put their own daughters into harms way, and without remorse! - I ask, will this culture ever change 

It can only change when women stand up for themselves and take control of their lives!!!



[/size][/b]

you are very silly! if anybody is an agent of satan, that person is YOU not the poster. If you were sensible enough to read his post before replying, he said his fiance is aware of his status - and secondly, just because he is hiv posiitive, does that mean he shouldn't be married and should be condemned to a life of loneliness? though you are quoting scriptures, you are more or less a sinner/son of perdition

Hello All,

I'm intending to  marry this girl I love and who loves me but the problem is that I am HIV positive and on treatment. My viral remains undetectable and my CD4 count is is over 700. She's aware of my condition and willing to carry on with the arrangement because once all precautions are taken, her level of risk will drastically reduce.[b] We don't intend to risk trying for children unless we go through Fluid washing. [/b]However her church (Anglican church) wants us to undergo HIV test. The problem is that we don't want to go public with this information. What options are open to me?

brother, you gave more info than was necessary - the bolded part was not necessary for us to know - as for advice, i would advice you to go to the registry - then after your marriage, join another church. Alternatively, join another church that would not ask you for any proof.  

lol!

Hey!  I watched the video again, and I watched the one on the BBC website.  That one shows the beginning that the first video didn't.

The keeper kicks the invader on the chest - looks very justified, since the invader appears to have one leg raised at the very moment he got close to the keeper and he noticed him.

Keeper has him on ground and aims another kick to his thigh.  This also looks justified to me.  He had to make sure the man had been disabled and not able to get up and injure him.  Totally defensive move as far as I can see.

He then aims another kick. . .  Up to then all his kicks have not been offensive/violent, he could have kicked in a lot worse places than the leg (think about kicks to the face, groin, chest while on on ground, etc).  This third kick also does not look lethal.  I will have to modify my comment that the behaviour merits a violent conduct charge.  It is very debatable.

When the referee gives the red card, does it not look like it is for the player in #17 shirt?  What were the other teammates doing while the security was holding the invader to the ground?  Were they also looking to do more damage?  Also, I don't see where it specifically states that the card was for violent conduct. 

Okay, it's fuzzy.

P.S. It definitely look like the situation was getting more volatile. The actions of the Alkmaar team to the referee for example. . .

your analysis is very wrong. The action of the goalkeeper was initially self defence but it changed from self defence to assault. If you look at the youtube video (which has been posted on this thread),  the first kick of the goalkeeper was justified since that was for self defence, so up till 0.14 his action was justified, but from then onwards (moving towards the supporter and kicking him twice) his action becomes an assault. The attacker was already on the floor and a stadium steward was already nearby, getting ready to pin down the attacker, so kicking him another two times was totally unjustified. The referee was RIGHT in my own opinion 

is it compulsory? where did this tradition originate from? if the world is calling for gender equality why must this be so? doesn't this make a lady look like a "property" of her man? what are your thoughts ?

isale_gan2:
Yes. It was Violent Conduct. Straight red for violent conduct. Even if the "fan" dared to fight the keeper, while he was down he was already subdued, so the kicking was excessive.

P.S.:
This BBC report indicates the red card was rescinded. That's fine if they can support it. I still support the referee; he had to react to control the situation on ground.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/16296118.stm

you are 100% right and i think it's very foolish for the FA to rescind the decision. it sets a bad precedent

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vJJRc1CN1U

was the referee right to send the keeper off?

silly guy! how did he become the club captain sef?

vinna:
Mat 6:1 "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.

Mat 6:2 "Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

Mat 6:3 "But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

Mat 6:4 "that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.

absolutely! this looks like a publicity stunt  

why flavour no kuku go naked? shio!

why are the igbos always soiling the name of this country? as soon as i saw the thread title i knew it would be an ibo! jeez!  

okay, so the man of God slapped the lady right? what's the fuss? let's get some things in perspective

1. Bishop Oyedepo is old enough to be the lady's father, and a father is within his rights to correct his child - Revelations 3:19

2. The girl in question has not come out to complain so what's it will all these emergency "lawyers" and "human right activists?" why have you chosen to mourn the dead more than the bereaved?

3. This incident happened in 2009, (two years ago) so why the sudden fuss?

4. How many of these so called critics accusing the man of God, (hypocrites) can honestly say they were not canned by their parents whilst they were growing up? Some of those now forming 'ajebota' were woken up by koboko every morning - pls give us a break!

5. The bishop made a mistake but the last time i checked, he was human and he still is - he never claimed to be super-human. You are the one's putting the men of God on pedestials and when they fall off the high horse you put them on, you start complaining

6. The girl in question was blaspheming and deserves to be checked - even the bible supports this:

'A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.' - Proverbs 18:6 (KJV)

happy birthday sir!

i noticed a slight mistake in the editing of the video - i'm suprised Clarence Peters made such a mistake. Notice the black jacket Wizkid had on when he came in
In;
2:57 - Wizkid is seen removing his jacket
3:00 - Wizkid is seen dancing without jacket
3:03 - Wizkid is seen removing his jacket AGAIN!
