Kid, you scared? 😂

You're the one who ran to call daddy and the entire ummuna though... no? big talk for a little man!

Bye bye jare.

greatness22:
Okay, don't cry again. Everything will be fine. 😊

If you promise not to make poor quality posts i promise not to cry again. Is that okay?

greatness22:
If that will make you stop crying, it's okay by me. 😂

That one concern you mister.

greatness22:
While you ended up writing nonsense.
👍

Call it what you want. You have no clue what you're talking about in the first place.

In a nutshell, the state government should only wait for football competitions to empower the youths with temporary jobs for “cleaners and electricians”

Very “Wonderful” logic my brother.😊

You're not making sense. Government's role is not to create jobs for the sake of employing the unemployed.

Their role is to create an enabling environment for privste sector investment. Lagos is doing wonderfully well in that regard but daily people from other states flock into Lagos looking for opportunities. The pressure is too much.

If you expect that the government should become the largest employer of labour then you have no clue what capitalism and free markets are all about.

This initiative is not about job creation. It's simply about giving a little succour to the citizens of the state and as you can see, those centres are full, which clearly says a need has been met.

DMerciful:
Even under Yekini Amoda Ogunlere(Lamidi Amoda Sangodele) presidency?

He really pledged to continue from where Bubu stopped. Tinubu will be worse than Bubu

They were released btween 2016 and 2022. Clearly written.

femarse:
Until the price is release , everyone should stop speculating,

I am desperately hoping for this to be an advantage but also scared as hell, for once, anything dangote has monopoly over always have an upward price curve, it has never been an advantage to the country whatsoever

secondly, the money for the refinery was burrowed in $$ and was agreed will be repaid in $$ meaning if dangote sell most of it's refined product in ## , how will he pay back the loan in $$?

Meaning he will have to use the naira to purchase the saved dollars govt got from not importing fuel anymore of which dangote will be giving priority since NNPC too has a share in the refinery which also translate to the exceess dollars that should take care of other needs will be mop up by dangote

people will still continue to pile pressure on the black market which makes the price to continue to fly higher

Which borrowed money are you talking about? The refinery is financed through its shareholding, international grant, and 3bn loan which Emefiele said had been paid back up to 70%.

So which loan?

SalamRushdie:
They were also paying Naira to the depot's before so what changed and besides Dangote is buying crude in dollars so nothing has changed a out our FX reality

Dangote is not paying in dollars either. He will pay naira.

I still don't get why they include persons and their families in the ranking. For example, Johan Rupert, here, is not individually worth $10 bn. That figure is the net worth of himself and every member of his immediate nuclear family. Johan himself is worth about $2.5 bn.

Geovanni412:
Don't you have tenancy agreement?

It is September to August, that's how we calculate it on all the properties we manage.

Do well to pay your landlord on time

You are thieves.

cenaman:
A calender year is 12 month not 13.... Na thief u be?

He didn't rent for a calendar year - seems you don't understand what a calendar year is. He rented from 17 September...17 September is the first day of his rental year. The first month of which is 17 September to 16 October.

Vikynas:
Is the refinery for us or enriching himself as African richest.. what a shame

For which "us"? Are you a shareholder of Dangote group? If not, how did the us come about?

SlavaUkraini:
You must be joking...

There is no part of the story that linked the girl with the Nigerian duo before her demise...

They were tracked.... how ?

Why did the Kenyan police not track Kenyans or other nationalities ?

If you have lived in any African countries then you will understand how these people normally suspect Nigerians for any negative incident in the society...

Then they should explain why they have a hatchet ?

That is more like saying that the Fulani man should explain why he carries a dagger...

If you live in an insecure society, you will need a 🔫 gun, cutlass or a hatchet for protection

Did you miss this part?

According to the newspaper, DCI detectives discovered the duo hiding in an apartment in Ndenderu, Kiambu County, not far from where Waeni’s head was later found.

DCI’s Criminal Research and Intelligence Bureau tracked the suspects using leads and evidence collected from the Kasarani crime scene.

Constable Benjamin Wangila from Kasarani DCI offices informed a Makadara court that the suspects’ proximity to the discovery of body parts strengthened the case against them.

Something found at the crime scene linked the police to the suspects.

It is not for me to sit in my house and speculate as to their guilt or innocence but alleging that the sole reason is because they are Nigerians is also false - if we are both reading from the same report.

Now I am sure you may agree with me that a hatchet is not the most effective tool for self-defence. A machete or cutlass is more effective and also easier to find. But that's not to say it is not possible. The point, rather, is that it is suspicious.

So let the police investigate and take them to Court. We know very well that Nigerians are indeed capable of doing exactly what has happened here so while we cannot and ought not to rush to procure a social media conviction, I think a bit of integrity requires that we also refrain from playing the xenophobia card too early. We really don't know what happened here but the signs are not looking good.

SlavaUkraini:
These guys are still Innocent until proven guilty...

They were only apprehended because they lived near the location where the girl's head was found...

Someone could have killed this girl somewhere else and dump her body parts close to the house of these guys...



No evidence yet that they committed this crime...

There is no mention of the girl being their girlfriend or visitor

The only crime they commit was to live close to the bush where the girl's head was found.

So they are Technically still Innocent until proven guilty..

Read again. They were first tracked and then their proximity to where her head was foubd reinforced suspicions. Plus they need to explain why they have a hatchet.

Tokskob2008:
Naija sef no play good football na so I really don't see any reason to make fun of Ghanaian team at this moment.

They are out and we're not. That's a good enough reason!

Cmanforall:
I'm not suggesting that, but it shouldn't be overlooked, at least one or 2 talents can be found there

Nigeria is indeed full of talents and there may be some good players at the University level, but there is a pipeline for a reason..they should first play competitive football at the league level to even stand a chance of being considered at all.

Cmanforall:
Without this your personal experience, most Nigerians know NFF and the coaches take bribes to feature players or the influence of an influential person. (Exception is when a Nigerian, either born abroad or not) start playing for top Premier league teams l, then NFF will have no choice than to invite the player)

There's a reason most players in the team are foreign based. Being foreign based, they probably earn in higher currency and can easily pay millions, compared to homebased (with or without clubs) players.
There are NUGA games, and other tournaments (involving football) where stars can easily be picked, if truly Nigeria use scouts to pick talents.


When was the last time Super Eagles featured a teenager?
Was it not Uzoho?

Osimhen was introduced as a teenager. But how cab you seriously suggest that players should be picked from university games. Lol.

Eriokanmi:
You can say that again...see team spirit,laying of passes,.oh,.my! Amazingly, both teams have qualified. I've not seen in this way before, the morales were high up till the end among both reams. If not for the own goal, our chickens would have come home to roost tonight lol

Without the own goal we would have still qualified.

ogbe88:
U are not always smart as your name sound.

You never pass this attention-seeking stage of life?

Angelfrost:
I won't even bandy words or argue with you... It's okay to be patriotic or positive.

Serious teams don't come to a competition of this magnitude to "build on".

That's what qualifiers and international friendlies are meant for.


Well, knockout stage begins coming weekend... We shall be here to enjoy the "building"!

We don't need to look too far back into history to see the truth. Last Afcon Egypt and Nigeria were in the same group. Nigeria got off to a great start and goals galore. Egypt looked destined for an early exit. We all saw how it ended. That was a clear example that in tournament football its not how you start that makes the difference.

We shall see.

0Brien:
Please don't encourage or promote this idea any further. The team is not doing well, expecially their finishing. No matter how good you think you are if can't net goals you're not going anywhere

Last Afcon from begining to end, the champuons scored a total of 9 goals. This is tournament football. A strong defence is the most important thing.

As for finishing its a matter of form. It will come.

Angelfrost:
Until the luck eventually runs out... Till they meet that team that can actually dismantle defenses, and doesn't waste chances.

Super Eagles of the past didn't enter Afcon with luck or hopes that their opponents would misfire.

They were easily threats before the first group games, and lived up to it.

What this crop of players has been doing since this tournament started is pathetic and shameful!

Nothing pathetic or shameful about it. This is a team finding itself but do you call 1 goal conceded in 3 games shameful?

We're a good team still getting into the rythym. We've created at least two clear cut chances in each game.

There's something to build on.

0Brien:
When you're good you don't need luck to win.

The point is that its not luck. Its funny to see people call these things luck...these chances were created because we did something right.

The goal today happened because Simon put in a dangerous cross and Osimhen was in the right place. This forced the defender to make a mistake.

That is the product of Nigerian skill and effort not luck.

0Brien:
True talk we don't deserve this win at all. The two games we won were just sheer luck

A team that is persistently "lucky" is doing somethibg well.

22tiger:
Osimhen Is not showing any thing as the African best player Lukmon self nothing to show Samuel chukwueze was better when he was in Spain . I am beginning to think Italian league is weaker than French league. Osimhen Will not perform if he come EPL

You can't use Afcon to judge anything. Players can be off form, struggle to gell with others, or even have a hard time adjusting to the pitch.

DeepSight:
@ Smartypants...
You see what I mean?

You may have a point after all.

technicallyrich:
You can't serve two masters the same time.

I have no earthly master.

technicallyrich:
You admire yorubas and you hate or don't admire northerners and SS/se😂😂.
Educated yorubas like the tribalistik jagaban,wole soyinka,awolowo, etc.
I admire ijaws,igbos,effik infact all easterners.if all nigerians can share their resources,be selfless,lovely and God fearing like these ss/se,Nigeria will be heaven😂😂😂

Does admiring Yorubas mean I don't admire other tribes at all? There is something to admire in every tribe. Even if I said I admire Yorubas alone, does that mean I hate other tribes? Don't be unreasonable!

But thank you for admiring all easterners too. Two of the tribes you mentioned are present in some quantity in my direct ancestry so I'm thankful for the indirect compliment.

technicallyrich:
Yoruba Muslim😂😂😂yes I agree,as long as election are been rigged,only the strongest will emerge.
Everything is rigged here including jobs,so what do you expect 😂😂😂

Is Yourba Muslim a tribe?? And you feel it is reasonable to assume that I am Yoruba and Muslim based on what exactly? Well, I have nothing to prove to you. I actually quite admire the Yorubas. If all Nigerians could behave the way educated Yorubas behave I think we would have been quite an advanced nation by now.

technicallyrich:
Is your tribe and even omonkey Reno not boasting on dealing with ss/se and how we can never be president, expecially the igbos Reno hates.
If you see chance to oppress,oppress, because the world is not for the weak.
It was because gej was too meek that's why today your people and northerners insult him and his region ss/se.

And what's my tribe?? There is a level of unreasonableness seen only in this country.
