egbon dayo fear God o in japan/korea 2002 jayjay was our best player fact! how is it his fault that most of his team mates didn't step up to the plate? and if okocha shows off his love for his wife nko? is that why your hero couldn't score a single senior tournament goal make him sef show off him boxers say he loves his wife

useless against denmark yet okocha gave your hero a through pass instead of kanu to score he was dancing atilogu till smicheal took it off him. okocha was useless in france 98 yet psg one of the most successful and prestigious clubs in france bought him for good money making him the most expensive african footballer at the time.

the two african footballer of the year awards he won were based on sentiments. the first one based on atlanta 96 an under age tournament in which we clearly cheated fielding old men against youngsters the second because he scored hattrick against chelsea while playing for arsenal

CL winner watching in HD from the bench the one final kanu played his team lost go figure. who cares who came 6th in whatever year. dayo came first in primary 5 who gives a shxt whether hamzat came 6th in the same class

i see you clearly avoided mentioning AFCON tournaments is it because ghost worker kanu didn't do anything of note in most of them? 2000 AFCON final against cameroon we were down and out like a boss jayjay scored a spectacular equalizer dragging us back into the game. during the pressure cooker of penalty shootout okocha was not found wanting dispatching his kick with aplomb your hero nko? kanu and sons sprinkler ltd watering the national stadium pitch after his penalty miss. bros you better go and confess your sins of blasphemy to any nearby father.

kanu ko, subzero ni

In Japan Korea Okocha was the one who didnt step up. Others like Aghahowa, Enyeama, Taribo Yobo did It was Okocha doing senseless step overs, No goal no assists just double legover which didnt help anyone

If Kanu didnt show anything for Nigeria, he showed for his club which was why he was named 6th in the world

Kanu won 96 based on sentiments? Didnt Okocha play in this same 1996 Olympics? Why didnt they use the same sentiments to vote Okocha over Kanu. Of course CAF isnt foolish

Was it the same sentiments that saw him voted number 6 in the world? the highest any Nigerian has ever achieved and where was Okocha then?

Kanu watching CL final from the bench? Oga Ade who is the person below dueling with Baresi in the CL final? That must be Nuka

6th in the world is the highest any Nigerian has ever been rated in history and it was Kanu who made it, Pray tell us what was the highest Okocha was rated

Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Obi, has repeated his appeal to the Federal Government for more proactive measures on the Oko-Nanka erosion sites.

Speaking at Nanka erosion site when he accompanied the Presidential Technical Team on Ecological Projects in the South-East on assessment visits to some erosion sites, Governor Obi said immediate intervention would save the area from further devastation.

The sites visited include Umuchiana Ekwulobia erosion site, Eziokke and Nanka erosion sites. Governor Obi noted that while the fund approved for the Nanka Erosion control project was grossly inadequate, the contractor failed to use available money to stabilise the area, regretting that many houses had been washed away since the project was flagged off. He said the State should be allowed to take charge of the supervision of the project or be allowed to execute the project and get reimbursed later. Governor Obi requested the President to visit the sites personally and see things for himself
==========================================================================

THE fear of a fresh landslide has thrown Oko, a community in Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State into panic Many residents fear their houses are threatened.

Oko monarch Igwe Laz Ekwueme, has cried out to both the federal and state governments to save his domain from the lurking calamity.

Ekwueme, who wept yesterday at while hosting Ben Nwankwo, who is representing the Orumba North and South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, listed his palace among the threatened property

===============================================================================================

By Vincent Ujumadu, Anayo Okoli, Chidi Nkwopara, Francis Igata, Chimaobi Nwaiwu & Chinenyeh Ozor WITH just two rains so far this year, many parts of the South East zone are already under the threat of devastating gully erosion, which has become a common feature in many communities in the zone. In past years, it was common to see many families abandon their homes whenever it rained because their homes lie within gully erosion sites that are up to 100 feet deep in some cases.

Ibime:
Andreas Christensen wins Gladbach Player of the season.

That's the best player in the 4th best team in Germany.

Yet I'm sure Chelsea will be ready to bid £40m on one average defender in one average team this summer.

Or worse still, bid £40m for the biggest liability in Everton team (John Stones) and send Christensen on loan again or treat him like one small boy in the squad ala De Bruyne.

A prophet is never honoured in his own country.

The gladbach friends I have are hoping Chelsea forgets him or sell him for cheap and go buy some expensive defender from the Portuguese league, and I think Christensen too wants to stay in Gladbach to form a partnership with his countryman Jannik Vestergaard

Pataki:
Where is that oponu pundit called sleekdot to come and tell us why another EPL player scored for France to give a two goal margin that he was foolishly taking glory in, some days ago?

Was this Payet not on the field for 90mins huffing and puffing before a La Liga player came to bail France out? Dindinrin pataki oponu apoda

Chelseafan1:
Raumdeuter, why did an EPL - dominated french team won 2-0 tonight and her six points clear on the log? with EPL players like Payet, Kante, Koscielny, Giroud, Lloris stepping up.

Against Albania of all teams?
A group that has Albania, Romania? when was the last time these teams qualified for a major tournament. Be honest and tell me if you have heard of any player from both countries before last Friday

Vickyydera:
Allow us to secede first, then we can talk about properties.

Point to the person holding you back? Have you packed your loads from SW and North and someone stopped you?

Per the question all Biafrans would have to leave first and apply for a visa to come in, The visa would be granted at the discretion of consular officers. If you dont have a visa and you cant come to the country your property is domiciled then you would owe property taxes and when your property taxes go beyond a certain limit the govt can take over the property and auction to citizens

chrisooblog:
egbon dayo you have come again with this your half measure analysis

okocha was useless in atlanta 96 yet he scored one of the goals in the match against mexico in the quarters which if we hadn't won we would never have been in a position to face brazil in the semis

you mentioned usa 94 but you conveniently forgot france 98 korea/japan 2002. in usa 94 yes he was too fanciful which is not uncommon with your players starting out with their national teams. in france 98 jayjay was the man first two matches he played we won. last match against paraguay where kanu your hero played 90 minutes no suprises we were flogged senseless. in the unfortunate match against denmark jayjay was our shining light doing all he could to inspire the team in a losing effort even tried to assist your hero but trust him he blew his chance one on one against smiechael. 2002 world cup kanu again no where to be found. while jayjay again was our stand out player. don't even get me started on AFCON tournaments where okocha was always the main man and kanu's contributions where minimal at best.

okocha may not have fully lived up to his potential but no truthful fan of nigerian football would say he wasn't one of our best players in the golden generation of the 90s. it sacrilege comparing him to quaresma pray tell in which tournament did he ever shine for portugal?. i fit even ignore that one as bad as it is but saying kanu (a player who could not score a single goal in any senior international tournament he featured for nigeria) is better than jayjay is height of football blasphemy

When the going got tough in Atlanta we knew those who stood up and Okocha was not one of them. Babayaro, Amokachi, King Kanu Oliseh

The poster I quoted specified US 94 which Okocha did nothing, but lets now go to the Japan Korea 02. What did Okocha do In Japan Korea?

Nothing, Our midfield was overrun what did he do? The only goal we scored was a Yobo cross and an Aghahowa header, what did Okocha contribute other than to celebrate and remove his jersey showing his underwear "I love you Nkechi" or something like that?

France 98 again what did Okocha do in the first 2 games? we scored 3 goals vs Spain, No goal no assist, vs Bulgaria, they overran our midfield and we won courtesy of an early goal by Ikpeba I think it was Amokachi who even gave that assist. Our elimination game vs Denmark what was Okocha doing other than senseless dribble, we went 2 goals down but Okocha chose that day to display his rainbow flicks , rabona and senseless football.

There is a reason top European clubs were after Kanu and other Nigerian players, while Okocha was playing in Bolton and Fenerbahce

There is a reason Kanu was 2 times African player of the year, Yekini, Amunike, Ikpeba all won while Okocha couldnt win 1

There is a reason Kanu is a CL winner while Okocha barely left a mark in the top European competition

There is a reason Kanu was once voted 6th best in the whole world, and Okocha?

Dadehmola:
Ode...

I fine pass you oga..

If dem born you well, upload your pix make I upload mine....

Upload yours first and let everyone see our face wey be like spoon

Nihilist:
Every two years AFCON convenes looking like an armed robbers convention, full of brutes in tight jerseys..

Add bloodshot eyes and you have the description of dadehmola posing for pictures on Xmas day. He is the baddoo terrorizing Ikorodu residents as we speak

Debroslink:
Sire, with due respect, it's better to keep quiet if you don't know what's up. Taribo was a beast in the best league in the world... Serie A, playing against the likes of Vieri, Zamorano, Silas, Baggio, Zidane, Batistuta, etc. He moved from Inter to a bigger club which is Milan, and put the likes of Costacurta to a proper retirement.

As for Amunike, as at 1996, he was ahead of Rivaldo at Barcelona before injury ruined his career.



So we are talking of Nigerians at the biggest clubs, not someone that played for Frankfurt or is it Bolton.

Chickenshrimp knows he is just mischievious

Taribo west in AC and Inter Milan that was a level Okocha never played all his career

chic2pimp:
I am not having this list Bar Kanu, George and may be Oliseh. Was Yekini even in Okocha's generation?

Yekini and Okocha overlapped for like 5yrs 1993-98

You mean Taribo a key defender for Inter and AC Milan is debatable? or Yekini or Amunike (African footballer of the year) or the Bull or Cele Babayaro

chic2pimp:
Nah i'm not having that. Jay jay makes top 3

1. King Kanu (6th WPOTY)
2, Finidi Finito (CL winner as a regular one of the best wingers in elite Europe in his prime)
3. Taribo West (Inter Milan, AC Milan, defensive stalwart)
4. Oliseh Laser (Ajax, Juventus, Dortmund top clubs in their league)
5. Amokachi Bull
6. Papa Yekini (Highest goal scorer in Portuguese league 93/94 season)
7. Prince Ikpeba (Prince of Monaco leading them to a CL semi)
8. K-leg Amunike (African footballer of the year 94)
9. Cele Babayaro (Chelsea defensive stalwart)
10. Enyeama (At his peak one of the safest gloves in Europe)
11. Okocha (Dont know what to write as his career peak) Okay key player for midtable Bolton

chic2pimp:
Lol @dive. Ortega was an infuriating player. Dude had all the talent but No He would rather showboat.

That's why I take exception when people say He was Africa's greatest ever playmaker. No He wasn't Abedi was.

I wont even put him in top 7 Nigerian players of his generation

Diademk07:
I think your skin tone and facial features are the determinant.
Even if you have white parent, if you're black, people will definitely call you one.

Whats the race of the person below

Below is Jason Kidd(a mixed race) with white wife, What race would those kids be? I presume black since it can only be white if its 100%

https://fabwags.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Porschla-Coleman-Jason-Kidd-and-two-kids-e1371137888925.jpg

White you have to be 100% white
Chinese you have to be 100% Chinese
Hispanic you have to be 100% Hispanic
Anything you are not sure of and has a tinge of black just dump them as black

Diademk07:
I will admit that I wasn't old enough during the '94 worldcup but I can say Okocha was quite good for his Bolton club and his vision was better than Quaresma.
It's quite true that he often tends to hug the ball but that could be attributed to the lack of qualities around him to relieve him of the responsibility.

I suspected you didnt watch him too much around that time,

He was good for Bolton, what does it take to be good for a mid table and relegation bound team? Is that not why I compared him to Charlie Adams?

It wasnt due to the lack of quality around him, Okocha himself, was the "Lack of quality" There was a reason no serious club sought his service, his abilities are only for a small level club like Lua Lua Tresor Lomana not a top level clubside which is why he does have a lot of similarities to Quaresma good ball jugglers, poor football sense

chic2pimp:
Okocha was not loyal to a fault. No top club wanted him that's the reason why He did not leave Bolton. In the grand scheme of things, Okocha was nothing more than a glorified ball juggler. And No Mikel did not outplay the spanish midfield, He simply had a good game. Much the same way Wilshere did a good game vs Barca a few ago.

Okocha better than Iniesta,Xavi and Pirlo? On what planet? Let him stick to his level with the likes of Denilson,Ortega and co abeg.

You are even insulting Ortega, Ariel would use his skill to dive and win his team a penalty. What would Okocha do? Rabona, rainbow flick and blast the ball over the bar, chew gum, spit, then laugh

If not for the later part of his career, I wouldnt rate Okocha better than Nii Odartey Lamptey

^^ SO why do we have to go by what white people say? Dont you know thats an inherently racist comment

To be white you have to be 100%

To be black you just need a drop of black blood 1%

Why not say It takes two blacks to make a black kid instead of getting all the racially ambiguous people dumped as blacks

Diademk07:
I can't believe you would compare Okocha to Charlie Adams.
There's no way we would have won the '96 Olympic nor got to the second round of '94 worldcup.
Anyway, Quaresma is no midfielder to begin with. His intelligence is almost zero. To be fair to him, his crosses seems to have improved a bit.

Charlie Adams because of the way he too dominated midfield at a low table club

First of all in Atlanta 96 Okocha was the most useless offensive player we had. And one of the most useless the entire tournament
If not for the doggedness of Amokachi and Skills of Kanu, Okocha would have cost us the tournament. vs Brazil in the semi finals he was the most useless player on the field, missed a penalty started laughing blowing away shots over the bar

Now to USA 94:
First match 3-0 win vs Bulgaria Okocha did not play a single minute in the match
Second match 1-2 loss to Argentina Okocha played 2 minutes
Third match 2-0 win vs Greece Okocha played 20mins

So in the 270mins to get to the second round in USA 94 Okocha played just 22mins Thats like 8%.
So explain how without Okocha we wouldnt have got to the 2nd round like you claimed?

In the second round Okocha started and that was one of the mistakes we made in the game cos he was contented with his aimless and senseless dribbles and we crashed out

Quaresma and Okocha are very similar in that they have the purpose of footbal twisted upside down, they think its just to come and do fancy tricks without end results. Instead of sidefooting a cross Quaresma would use the outside of the wrong foot and Okocha would do a Rabona.

Only a useless player with priorities upside down would dribble a player instead of accelerating away, stand still and wait for the player to recover OR dribble the whole defence and keeper and turn around to re-dribble them again

Even though Quaresma as even performed at a bigger club, I still rate him on the same level as Okocha in football intelligence

Doslop:
Odemwingie is a perfect example, what race do you think he is

He is mixed. He can be either black or white.

So any prowess in Odemwengie can be due to either his black genes or white genes.

You are saying there is no half/mixed, so I am asking when a black and a white have kids, what race is the child?

Doslop:
There's nothing like half white or half black, a black man is a black man(African, Hottentots, Melanesians/Papua, “Negrito”, Australian Aborigine, Dravidians, Sinhalese) and can be recognized easily, it is either you are black or white and if white skinned either you are Caucasian or mongoloid.
Mind you Arab is no race rather ethnicity>

So when a white and black have a child, what is the childs race? e.g Obama

FBS:
The ball was heading straight to the far side.

Which far side? The one a Ukrainian player was waiting for a tap in?

airmark:
Ode all i see was an overweight defender covering the space he was supposed to have covered earlier and by so doing almost scored an own goal. The ukrainian who played the ball mildly was to blame. I have seen better goal line clearances, we even saw fabregas', so only omo aijoberi like you will be dancing for what alago did. That other media hyped it ,confirmed how strange the moment was to them that a wack defender could pull that. Ramos and co did better ones without headlines. When an olodo student scores highest in examination it becomes a breaking news. Apoche cracra like you, sugomu.

More headaches for you, below is from Eurosport

How on earth did he do it?

Jerome Boateng stole the show for Germany with what was described as the “best clearance I’ve ever seen”, among other glowing accolades.The Germany defender blocked the ball in his own six-yard box before somehow clearing the ball off the line while falling back into his own net to deny Ukraine in dramatic fashion. [size=14pt]Jerome, we salute you! So does everyone else[/size] (Except the senseless ones like airmark even pataki had to salute the TANK)

Scott MacGregor @ckkj14
That Boateng clearance might be the best one I've ever seen

Diademk07:
I beg to differ.
Quaresma doesn't have the vision nor the intelligence to control the midfield like Okocha did for us at the worldcup and for Bolton.
Obama is a black man too!

Which world cup did Okocha control midfield for us? And Bolton really? Its like saying Charlie Adam controlled midfield for Blackpool or someone controlled midfield for Swansea and Crystal Palace. I've seen Quaresma do stuff at a top club like Porto which Okocha was never able to do at any top club

How is Obama black and not white? he has equal percentage of black and white genes

ChristineC, I am impressed, but let me see your picture first. The one on your profile is too small and you mentioned something about big chest on your signature, thats a very interesting topic

Nihilist:
a40 and sleekdot.
Una two dey craze o

#TeamChristineC

I am not contributing to this debate but I saw some points that caught my interest

Some people keep mentioning Okocha as a top footballer, minus say we be Africans, I dont see how he is any different from Quaresma

Secondly Obama is used as an example of a black man, Hmm Hope you dont forget he is 50% white?

3. There are white skinned and black skinned Arabs

airmark:
This is what happens when a second class defender does what is no big deal to top class defenders. You will see his die-hard fans rolling out drums senselessly. He still has a lot to learn from chiellini, sergio ramos and co at the euros in the art of defending? His positioning has always been a suspect. He almost foolishly gave an own goal to kill his team.

Mumu, Of course squawka, independent newspaper even your favourite goal com are his die hard fans thats because he is top notch and what every defender who is playing in Chelsea should look up to be

birdman:
u dey mind dem? why wont lbj laugh... if it wasnt for bball, you think clay would be talking where grown men are balling? charmin soft brother... issokay tho mouth off when u know u safe .

Which grown man whine to official about being called Bittchh

On ESPN today they interviewed Chauncey Billups, Paul Pierce and Rondo they were all like all sort get said on the court and no one goes out to whine to official like LeBaby

diggz:
Now you don move away from English team to any team with a bulk of players in the EPL can never do well in a major competition.

I hail bros.

Meanwhile, why you no gree gimme info aspa coogs? I see as u read and ignore my post for ur thread even though I purposely accuse u to find ur mouth.

I no know much about the case, Just check the thread that was opened. Na London people wahala

Chelseafan1:
How did ur De bryune fare tonight.?
Didnt u see how unlucky they were in front of goal, they had more possession, they created more chance.....Lukaku and Fellaini ruined it for them.

Debruyne created that chance for Lukaku which he wasted

Even he is getting tainted by the EPL game slowly compare this to when he was in the Bundesliga

diggz:
If you were a lawyer and I needed someone to save my arsss, I will surely employ you for your ability to twist things to your favour.

No be Lawyer things na sure certain say any team with a bulk of players in the EPL can never do well in major competition

Chelseafan1:
I would quote you again when ds same Hazard-led team win their second match easily, we would be here to have you shift post again.

You mean they cant perform vs top side, Hidden Pius Ikedia is waiting for Ireland and Sweden before he can perform? WHat a sham

Chelseafan1:
Can u please post their ratings like you did for Boateng?

Most important stat, their team won

Chelseafan1:
So, he didn't watch Muller and Gotze play utter nonsense yesterday.

Yet their team won 2-0 comfortably.

Chelseafan1:
Why didn't you say this before the match started? What if the match had gone in their favour, u for no show up.

Say what? You mean you dont know that once you start having players in the EPL you start flopping

WHen France was filled in 98 with Serie A players they won world cup and Euros by 02-04 when they started going to EPL they became a sham

2. Dont you know Hazard is a mental midget? Skill and ability to dribble on one spot like his ancestor Pius Ikedia is not what makes you a leader. Players like ozil, Gotze Hazard should never captain anyone.
