Same thing we are saying. Even if "the goal of every investment is success", does it mean success is guaranteed?

Already answered.

lexy2014:
What pannamdi is simply saying is that d fact that Newcastle has money is no guarantee of success

No, it's no guarantee of success. I don't think anyone made such assertion, even if it goes without saying that the goal of every investment is success.

PaNnamdi:
No be by big players plays na players and coach relations and seriousness

If u doubt take a look a the new club brentford

You don't spend that huge amount buying a premier league club to start looking at the likes of Brentford or Leicester.
The new owners of Newcastle are richer by far compared with the likes of Chelsea and Man City owners, I don't think they are in this to build a typical good team.

Newcastle doesn't have much to build on so the first or second manager will definitely bear the brunt even when they start buying big stars. Though getting sacked would depend on the tolerance level of the new owners, it's still not a good idea to be the very first manager of the revolution. The likelihood of failure is very high, however that's the exact situation that some managers prefer. The pressure will still build up on subsequent managers but they will have a better structure to work on.

Odewaleadesoye:
I will still repeat what I have said earlier:

Sentiment apart, Obi Cubana did nothing wrong.

How about those thieves at the house of assembly and all? Are they too big to visit EFCC office too?

This is not good at all.

#FreeObiCubana

You are mixing up two different things.

1) You are in no position to make such declaration on who did something wrong or not - even EFCC cannot pronounce him guilty of doing anything wrong, they can only proceed with their investigations then present him in court if they find valid reasons backed by evidence to do that.

2) The issue of the thieves at the house of assembly and all - that is equity, and you are right that equity must always be pursued in law. However, if your friend steals a goat and was able to get away with it, then you proceed to steal a goat and you get caught, you are still liable. Your friend walking free after committing a crime does not bestow immunity or license on you to go ahead and commit a crime, you might not be that lucky .

*In essence, whatever EFCC has on Obi Cubana is totally independent of whatever is going on at the house of assembly that you mentioned. My friend drove without drivers license for years without getting caught, I did it once and got caught on Day 1 - I can't claim innocence because of my friend's luck .
However, fighting for justice and equity by calling out the EFCC to go after other criminals is a valid crusade.

Guys let's face reality. This Ronaldo is specially anointed from wherever authentic anointing is sanctioned and distributed.

Looking at the first screenshot on the first page, even Chatinent sef go dey wonder why Nigerians are so gullible - isn't it obvious what he did?

A wild goose chase triggered off a false positive of a stolen SIM card?

As a people, we are who we are.

1. Does that means the position of his father has become obliterated and he has taken his father's position in the family?

2. Your response there is noble but the Oyo and especially the Alaafin thinks differently at least maybe during Ooni Sijuade's days.

Going round in circles with this helps no one, but I'm glad you accepted that there is a noble path here.

1. You asked a specific question and I helped provide an answer, and gave you a clear and specific example of the current Ooni of Ife being greater than his father. An example that you are very much familiar with, obliteration of the father and his position is a different issue that depends on the culture at Ife.
2. I don't know what you and I can do about how the Oyos and the Alaafin think. They have legitimate claim to the way they think but the fact is that Alaafin is the king of Oyo, not Ife and Ooni is the king of Ife, not Oyo. Also, the then Ooni Sijuade have legitimate claims to his position too. What they cannot change or manipulate is the fact that they have their separate domains.

How many times are we going to keep answering the question of who is greater between the Ooni and the Alaafin? It is a meaningless question, and I have noticed that this question is always craftily injected in threads to keep the supremacy debate going. Supremacy for what, and to what end?

.

0balufonlll:
Are you greater than your father?
If no, then you have your answer.

Your answer makes no sense. Is the current Ife king not greater than his father who is still very much alive?
Stop answering that often repeated irrelevant question. The kings are great and they rule separate kingdoms, that's all we need to know (There is no Alaafin of Yoruba or Ooni of Yoruba, they have their distinct domains). That question is often repeated deliberately to make fun of the Yorubas and create division.

Fee Dee Fee

MangekyoAlt:
Yall don't understand Ole.
The man is tactically gifted. But For some reasons, the man is holding back. We haven't seen him go all out yet.

If Ole should Unleash his full tactical prowess, my brother, only God knows how devastating man utd would be as that is clearly beyond human comprehension.

Ole has everything in him. He can unleash his tactical prowess and just win every matches, but he's not. Rather he has decided to follow the due process which is to build from the scratch and gradually make his way up.

It would be a mistake for man utd to part ways with the man.

Your ogogoro must be pure one from Bayelsa

APCNig:
And the same civil servants go to Church and, or Mosque everyday

I can bet you that one of them or both are church or muslim leaders in their community.

Quitam:
This didn't come as a surprise to me. Anyone who knows Abuja will perfectly understand this unfortunate irony where thousands of workers troop from the suburbs into the Central Area while there are estates lying fallow in same place. I don't think even a perm sec can afford to build a good estate throughout his career. But you see lower officers sef with many estates. A lot of leakages abound in the public and civil services, which when blocked will spur govt revenues.
But the thing is that most Nigerians are not sincere. They complain about corruption because they are not eating from the big pot, but you find them doing same corruption in their circles. The blame is not entirely on government, we are a huge part of it

Yes, that's why those in the know keep telling our people that our government is a reflection of who we are, they are not from Mars. Count the number of corrupt practices you witness or partake in every day in Nigeria, it's corruption. What is different is the opportunity, platform and scale.

Conclusion: You get time to waste.

TotoGame:
Aswear... unizik lecturers are bunch of savage barbarians

Whatever yuu do in life ... avoid biochemistry, ICH, Political science and economics depts in unizik

Yet the students accept it and even brag about it. This is clear mediocrity all round. There is nothing difficult in those courses, it is those lecturers and the system enabling them that failed. This is as bad or even worse than SARS. End it!

I like your points but let me use it to nail you. If you're job hunting for a secretarial post, for example. And you find an advert of a well established company in need of a personnel to fill that post, am sure you will make your investigation to find out if they really need the personnel or it's just a misinformation to deceive the public right?
Secondly. Let's assume you own a company, and a staff messes up, you querry the staff and not satisfied you fired the staff and put up an advert for the same position on your website. Tell me, will you publish the query and the sack letter you issued to your staff? Alongside with the job advert? Mr/Mrs the united nation is a union of nations, they come together once a year to make proposal and mission statement for a year, they have arms and branches and working groups. The years job is carried out by these working groups and they report all year round. You can only see little of what they do as it affects the whole world on their website. If the begin to publish all the letters they get and the petition. My friend how will their website look like. Stop looking for letters written to various countries and organisations on their website you won't find it. As your self have you ever seen the details of their yearly. September UNGA meetings on their website? All the world presidents gather and even buhari speaks to them have you found it there? Does that mean it did not take place? But if you did your investigation pls kindly the last speech buhari gave to the un, show us where it is on their website let's see. If you like keep lying to yourself, UN has querried Nigeria and Kenya in regards to kanu it is on record. Live with it.

With this long epistle that ended up adding nothing to the bone of contention, now tell me how exactly you are different from Lai Mohammed?

Go to the UN website again, you will see clearly news on how they have condemned actions of other countries recently including the USA. Stop lying or making stuffs up to justify a lie, it's ugly and adds nothing to you or your cause

Leave Papa alone! Life is short.

Poultry business is time consuming, feed takes the profit. If there is no alternative feed, you will only break even,

Feed does not take the profit, feed cost is part of the business expenses. I understand what you mean though.
You addressed the issue with most of our people, even when they send out business proposals. They often totally ignore, or grossly underestimate the various types of expenses in the business (maintenance, transportation etc are often ignored). Our financial education is very poor.

Good day , so my thread with the same topic created in 2017 with over 30k views and 500 comment was deleted due to some reason best know to NL and their mods , so I’m creating a new one here . Basically I would be highlighting the cost of creating a website/blog in Nigeria.

What's the web address of your blog?

Emyogalanya:
is this how desperate you are to discredit the news? Well go and activate your facts or fiction account

I didn't go to school to end up a glorified illiterate. I verify information. In the educated world that's normal, not desperate. Desperation is to deliberately misinform people or to easily accept information when it suits your inclination

Hmm, a true father figure they almost sacked him too in 1983,when he too started woefully.. Wishing Man Utd all the best

Kamanuozuzu:
What UN is saying is that, even if he committed a crime, please follow due process. Always read to understand.

If you refer to the article on this thread, UN said no such thing anywhere.

UN human rights council website - NOTHING!

Naijaman, question the source of every information o!

I searched United Nations website, no related information. Nothing on their News page, nothing on their in-depth focus page. Where is this information? I might have missed it but hopefully someone would find it, and it could be on a specific UN commission/committee website. Not reaching any conclusion, just verifying what I'm consuming.

This is irresponsible journalism. Another evidence of how some people derive so much joy in taking advantage of the gullibility and poor education of a large concentration of our people. Deceptive headlines like this are not accidental, they are deliberate! This is how they keep Nigerians busy doing nothing but wasting precious time everyday with useless drama that is totally irrelevant the following week. We need a productive nation, not a nation of fruitless noisemakers but these so called media people and journalists will do anything to drive traffic and profit from it. Nairaland does the same. Just like Facebook facing hell today, your judgment day will come one day when the searchlight beams directly on you!

Nigerians stop posting comments based on thread titles or news headlines. READ! READ!! READ!!! Reading posts doesn't take too long, read to understand the information, not to respond with your typical prejudiced replies haba! Comment is not by force o .

temmypotter:
Man U’s problem is not the coach, they’ve never had it good since SAF left, I think United are the kind of Club to grow and stick to one manager and eventually click to begin to enjoy success. Ferguson had some bad days at United but because he was there for decades we mostly remember the good stuff.

The Club needs to support Ole, fans alike.

But you see that Koeman ehn? We Love him as a club Legend but he has to go abeg.

Koeman is going nowhere! We all love him like Ole, so he stays. Shikena!
