OBUKSBAYELSA: We don't have Ijaws in Akwa Ibom. Last i checked, Andonis are not Ijaws. Besides the Andoni people occupy just half of one LGA in Akwa Ibom. 3 Likes |

I still don't understand why Dave Umahi ran to the APC. He would have been the best optoon from the South East (after Peter Obi). Some people just take actions without thinking. 3 Likes |

ecoco2014: For me Wike will be the best choice. He won't sit as VP and take rubbish. He will most certainly speak out. Udom Emmanuel on the other hand will just act like Mickey Mouse even if the nation is in flames. He can make Udom Emmanuel Min of Finance if he wins the general election. 3 Likes |

***WHAT NEXT FOR THE EAGLES*** (continued) GOALKEEPING If we can't find an excellent goalkeeper for the super eagles, it's not all doom and gloom. Ajax have played most of their matches this season with Stekelenburg and Pramveer who are both above 30 and past their prime. That's because both of them are comfortable with the ball at their feet. So let's look for ball-playing goalkeepers for the Eagles and by extension ball-playing defenders so we can play out of the back in the near future. CRUCIAL HOME GAMES The Eagles need a fortress for perdecuting extremely crucial home matches. In 2005, Ibrahim Galadima took a very crucial match against Angola to Kano. We drew that match and lost control of the group to Angola. We have done the same again and we may likely repeat this mistake in future. LET'S GET INVOLVED For us to turn football around in this country, many of us on this thread need to leave social media and get involved in the various state FAs. That's how we will get into NFF where we can really influence policies and decisions. Our leagues will get better and our national teams will once again draw the attention of the world. ADDENDUM Away from the Super Eagles, I think we should jettison the twenty team league with one LMC for 2 groups of 12 teams with 2 separate LMCs. We can then have a super 6 or 8 to determine the champion. This will bring competition into the system with one LMC trying to out do the other. We can even do something similar for the NWFL. Pls note, the above assertions are my personal opinions. Please feel free to discuss and criticise constructively. Thanks for taking time to read this write-up. 1 Like |

***WHAT NEXT FOR THE EAGLES*** It is no longer news that the Super Eagles of Nigeria were knocked out by Ghana on Tuesday, 29th of March at the MKO Abiola stadium in Abuja. It is also regrettable that a life was lost in the violence that ensued following the final whistle. However, we need to pick ourselves up and move on. AFCON 2023 IS COMING Qualifiers will likely begin in September. Let's appoint a technical Adviser (Foreign or indigenous) who will use the summer break to work with the players and finetune tactics ahead of September. FOOTBALL IDEOLOGY We need to come up with a football ideology or philosophy that will take us to a much higher level and encourage most of the coaches in the country to adopt same ideology. FORGET ABOUT WINGPLAY Nigerians love wing play and possession Football. However we don't have gifted midfielders like Xavi, Iniesta or De Bruyne and neither do we have excellent wingers like Ribery or Leroy Sane. I would love to recommend Klopp's gen-gen press especially the 4231 he used at Dortmund. TIME TO APPLY PRESSURE Pressing be it the high-press or gengen press or even the mid-block press has come to stay in Football. The best footballing clubs play with all or atleast one form of Pressing. During the last Afcon, Senegal incorporated a lot of Pressing enroute winning the trophy. We should do same. Luckily for us we have players like Osimhen, Onyeka, Aribo who can apply pressure when called upon to do so. To be continued...... 1 Like |
Politics / Re: 2023: Wike Changes Permutations In PDP, Becomes Major Threat To Atiku by Skie(m): 10:25pm On Feb 13, 2022 |
If I may ask, do you think Wike is a good, competent leader to become Nigeria's President? I believe Gov Wike is much more competent than PMB. He's a go getter. Besides, he's more trustworthy than Atiku. |

Car Talk / Re: PLEASE HELP: Conversion From Automatic To Manual Transmission. by Skie(m): 7:46pm On May 11, 2021 |
[/color][color=#006600] DMechy: Thanks for taking time to contribute. Actually, I have 2 options as it were: 1) Buy a Tokumbo auto tranny, transport it down to Uyo and have it fixed. That will cost more than 400k. Being Tokumbo, it might come with issues especially since I know next to nothing about the quality of trannys, and I won't be the one buying it. 2) Have it converted to manual. The guy who wants to handle the conversion wants to charge 300k. Problem is, I don't know anyone who has done it successfully on a Toyota Sienna. (I know of one done successfully on a BMW). So that's the dilemma facing me. |

Romance / Re: How To Approach A Girl For The First Time by Skie(m): 3:26pm On Jun 07, 2017 |
Invisibleojay:[color=#006600][/color] Start with a smile. If she returns the smile, then you can go ahead and strike a conversation with her. If you don't know how to smile, you should practice infront of your mirror. Get to know her name, department, faculty and where they usually hold lectures. Do not ask for her number on the first day, she won't give it to you. Instead arrange another meeting. Don't take her to an expensive joint or eatery for the second meeting. If you do, she'll begin to see you as a mugu. Get to know her better and then ask for her number. If you are looking for a girl friend, do not be in a hurry to get one. Relate with ladies and build self confidence as well. As you grow in the game, you will find the right lady! 8 Likes |
