Manchester united is not ready to leave pogba at any price... Any couch that can not make use of what he has is not a good couch.. I know that he will fail

Coach.

temmypotter:
These guys above me though

In a sane country, the brilliant chap would have gotten all the neccesary assistance to ply his brilliance at the very top flight.

And for the silly comments above, the lot of you are probably frustrated empty headed dudes struggling to graduate with a pass even, what nonsense!

What examples of sane countries are you referring to?

USA? Canada? UK? What sort of assistance do brilliant students receive there?

earthsync:
That write up was confusing

Kept talking about a source that witnessed the scene, the source being a student, then a police source. I didn't understand

There is nothing confusing there. Go and read again.

Those things need to be in place before any ban is initiated or implemented by the FG otherwise it will bring needless suffering to Nigerians while creating some black market racket that will only enrich a few government cronies. Do you prefer that?
There has to as seamless a transfer as possible especially for a product like milk that major consumers are our infants and young children. The cows in Nigeria also need to be confined in a place and nomadic rearing outlawed. The FG must also steer clear of any plan for forceful seizure of lands and deployment of public funds for this purpose. The private business sector which cattle rearing belongs to must be allowed to function with regulatory policies of government and then we will know that we are actually serious about changing the narrative of milk production and consumption in Nigeria.

There is going to be some hardship. It must be accepted but it won't be on an unmanageable scale.

Milk importation has not been banned so what will happen is that imported milk will gradually become more expensive but that also leaves enough time for the local production framework including the economic and regulatory apparatus to be put in place. Bearing in mind that these efforts to encourage local milk production have been ongoing for some time now, and have only just been intensified by the restriction of forex access.

and if a few get enriched along the way, we have to take it for what it is. After all, the foreign milk that is imported at a cost to our economy (degradation of the naira) is also enriching just a few.

freeze001:
No, unless you mean fura d nono and other stuff. Certainly not enough to meet the demands of even one state and we certainly do not have the major components of production and quality control in place.

We don't have enough cows in Nigeria?

Everything else can be very easily provided. Including the quality control. If we continue to import because imports are of higher quality, will we ever become a major producer of anything? Do you think it is better for Nigeria to remain a net importer?

airminem:
What would we think of a government that banned /restricted forex for milk? Would we good citizens think it over-reaching, even oppressive? Would we condemn it? Would we assume its policy-makers/CBN and many of its citizens were deeply out of touch with facts? Would we judge it as foolhardy in the extreme? Or, would we fail to notice?

#forexmilk

Don't we make milk in Nigeria?

logon599:
But money is very powerful though. How can you be playing for the world's most popular and most valuable club, something nearly every footballer would want, then get angry because they didn't let you leave Real Madrid to go to Jijusu...something in China. What else could cause this but the promise of £1m per week salary.

Don't forget the important background to this...the fact that his manager has publicly expressed his wish for the player to leave. Then let him go where he wants...wouldn't you be angry?

They don't want you but they don't want to let you go where you want?

Cutealexio:
Use of English does not determine the level of intelligence. If you visit some countries in Europe or Asia you will see a lot of brilliant and intelligent professionals in various fields that speaks and write terribly but that does not mean they're not up to task in their specializations. If you are well travelled you will get used to ignoring grammatical blunders (ignore mine�) I don't know why Nigerians are so addicted to English Language.... It's only in Nigeria that they will doubt the competence of a doctor or an engineer because of his/her use of English. You can study these courses in other languages too... This shouldn't trend at all

Sir, English is the National language of Nigeria. If you went through school from primary school to University learning in English and you still don't speak good English then are we to imagine that you understood what you were learning all along?

She got a 20 years jail sentence while he walks free the judge wasn't fair at all

Graduateacher:
Even 2 years is OK .Besides, the boy is over spoilt, he never told anyone but was enjoying everything happening.

Is a 13 year old supposed to be old enough to comprehend that the teacher was molesting him?

Is he?

Do you understand the concept of being a minor? What could make a 13 year old boy attractive to a 28 year old woman??

Are you attracted to 13 year old boys?

And is a teacher not supposed to be in a position to protect such young and vulnerable ones?

wirinet:
It's a horrible strategy. You don't kill your fellow officers and comrades, because you want to take over government, especially innocent soldiers.
You will elicit anger, resentment and distrust. A government created by such bloodshed could never last.

How many other coups had that level of bloodshed?

Not defending what they did...just explaining the motivation. But i must add that having killed all those political and cultural figures, there is almost no doubt that any surviving Northern military officers would have been motivated to bring them down. In terms of strategy, there was no way the coup would have succeeded while Northern military officers would have remained in a position to act. Indeed, it is on record that Danjuma, Murtala Muhammed, Gowon, etc, were instrumental in eventually quelling the Coup.

The big mistake in terms of stratregy was not the bloody nature of the coup, it was the biased nature of the bloodshed. Had senior officers been indiscriminately targetted, there would have been no suspicion of it having been an Igbo coup, and while many would have resented the killing of their beloved military leaders, they could have been convinced that it was done without any particular malice. The events of July 1967 then would most likely have been averted.

That is the nature of coups...and in answer to your last question, how many coups survived the test of time? Most coupists were eventually ousted and usually not after a very long period of time.

wirinet:
This is the summary of what lead to the counter coup, the pogrom and subsequently, the civil war.


God questions. If the coup plotters killed politicians because they were corrupt, why then did they kill senior military officers, especially those from non Igbo areas?

Ostensibly, a strategic move to prevent these senior officers from stopping the coup. Rememebr that the coupists were just majors.

crackhouse:
Hmm. It's only an employee that will not understand what employers go through to pay salaries of their workers. Let him go and open his company and pay salaries let's see before he talk about increment.
Local man is frustrated

The struggles of the employer are not the concern of the employee. It is also a struggle to get up early in the morning, spend your productive hours and energy working for someone else. Salary payment is a right and if the employer cannot afford it, he should not hire people.

CeeJay9ja:
We have more Nigerians involved in the battle. That is to show we have more jobless youths.

Tomorrow Africans will be shouting "RACIST"

Dumb Africans

Or maybe it just shows that we have a much higher population?

rentAcock:
Trust any self reported safety record at your own peril. If they said the accident rate of ordinary okada is 60% how come theirs is just 0.2%, are they operating in a vacuum?

They've also reported what they've done to correct the trend. Clearly there is a huge distinction between independent and often uneducated okada riders and people working for an organized tech-based startup.

It's like comparing danfo drivers and uber drivers. There is a clear differnce in the micro environment in which both operate.

nonye6194:
Was he supposed to be superhuman?

Most defenders, even the best of them have scored an own goal at some point in their career.

Only club fans he didnt sign to would wankk to this news

That's two notable own goals in a relatively short space of time...about 3 months or so. Not a good record for any defender. But he is young and these things happen especially as he may be feeling the pressure of the big move.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
coach hit Diamond mine of the streets of naija to get raw talents

How many streets do you want him to visit from Lagos to Kano? Football does not work that way anymore.

Daboomb:
When Rohr was being employed by this corrupt Pinnick at a huge price of #15million/Month (even our Chief Justices dont earn 10% of that!), we were told he is a very "experienced and expert" FOREIGN Coach!
All of a sudden, he has become an Amateur that Nigeria needs to spend huge amount of money on, to refresh his "empty amateur" brain?

Who is fooling who, here?

Refresher courses are specifically meant for experts not amateurs.

Richie0974:
11) Can be said to be racist.

I read an article this morning detailing all his racial slurs against Africans.

That's literally the first point on the list. Did you read it?

Natoski5:
Ronaldo hit a police officer it turned to news headline....baba come try am for nigeria

What will happen if Cristiano Ronaldo hits a Nigerian police officer?

SoNature:
She's just being stupid.
Who doesn’t know that CNN broadcasts in different languages for many different continents?

It's different programming. They have different shows and etc on CNN USA.

Waakanda:
@ "They don't even know that the CNN they watch here is different from CNN USA"

What's funny? She's right about that.

Cladez:
The Dakolos are now the accused because they were sued for defamation.
and how do you know the case wasn't flied in Abuja and not Lagos as you said.

REASON WITHOUT SENTIMENT.

If sued for defamation, the police wouldnt invite you for questioning. It would not be a criminal matter.

Pavore9:
This issue came up in the course of my conversation with someone 2 weeks ago, he said he has a banker friend who happens to be account officer of a man who passed on February 2018 and in his account a 7 figure balance and no one has come forward since then which means none of his relatives knew about it.

We argued if his banker friend can go tip his family as his kids would surely need the money for their upkeep but no matter how noble, it will be unethical for the banker to let his family know since the deceased didn't want them to know about it.

The bank is not supposed to keep quiet about it. The mobey legally belongs to the deceased's next of kin, therefore the moment he or she passes away, an equitable trust is created which must be executed in line with the marriage and inheritance laws of Nigeria.

I assure you, the law has made ample provision for such situations so any bank claiming to act ethically by not disclosing said accounts may be in breach of trust.

Note: trust here connotes a legal obligation

Prove it by going to condole with boko victims in maiduguri without security apparatus let's see how brave you are, fake china man.

That one is ready to die does not mean that one should kill himself.

The ICC has nothing to do with this and neither m does the OTP have a good offices function.

The appropriate body concerned with such matters is the African Commission on Human and People's Rights.

PopeFlatino:
Those two made our performance awful..I watched the team performance closely and discovered that most of our players like Omeruo,Awaziem,Aina,Etebo has improved so well...Ndidi was at his best at d earlier stages but faded away slightly at d later stages which wasn't discovered because Etebo covers his errors.
Collins has been d perfect left back but couldn't just predict Mahrez at d semi finals.
Ighalo and Ekong where just there,not so fantastic but they are always lucky.
Unfortunately I couldn't see more of d talented Onyekuru but Chukwueze keep improving as well

But u see that Musa that always goes on d run,nothing comes out at d end,he rushes passes in a bid not to appear selfish but it's either too heavy or to no one in particular.

But Iwobi, despite contributing to 3 goals wasn't in form at all,he is always clueless,he even avoids legs,Can't take risk,can't dribble,spoils counters,infact that Tunisia match was the worst I have seen from him,, everything he does goes wrong,he had d chances to either score or fire an assist for us to go ahead of Algeria in d semis but he played shots like a toddler

Finally ,Akeyi The main reason we didn't win the afcon

Please explain how Ighalo was lucky?

1st goal - Brilliant run, Brilliant finish
2nd goal - great positioning and instictinve of siblings with a bit of luck
3rd goal - great positioning, great finish
4th goal - high pressure penalty coolly done
5th goal - high determination and fight

Are those not the attributes of a great striker?

seunmohmoh:
Where is my musa and iwobi

I think they should be in Nigeria at the moment. Hope I've answered your question?

Corlarde:
CAF has come again
Troost Ekong is the best defender in this tournament

He wasn't even the best Nigerian defender.

Omeruo was the best, never directly culpable in any goals and scored a crucial goal

Awaziem was the next best as he was always solid.

Then you can talk about Ekong.

JubrinElSudan:
He should retire, let's give Victor Osihmen, Henry Onyekuru chance.

Drey1:
make osihmen fall in sharp sharp. no time I waste time

I have no idea why I'm seeing so many people misspelling his name...its Osimhen.

namiji2598:
Eventually this might be the reasons


1. Unpaid allowances

2. He want to end it in good shape not like Mikel who ended his career playing badly and fans stated teirt cristicis

3. He wants to give the younger boys the chance to grow up

Just remove number 1 sharply. Ighalo is a big boy.

arantess:
He tried oo, am not saying he didn't, but yekini was banging 13 goals in cup of nation's with fewer teams played(he was in Vitoria setubal at the time, a higher profile team than any chinese club)

Yekini never banged in 13 goals in any cup of nations. his record was 5 goals, which Ighalo just equaled. If you don't know, ask.

And are you aware of what is happening in the Chinese league? What is the basis of your rating of the Chinese league?

Tamasaba:
Thing is our current Eagles are not at their best. How could those who aren't relevantin major European leagues and therefore ply their trades in china be making our dear national team? Only those doing awesomely well should make d team. Mikel, ighalo shouldn't have made d team. Any player that leaves Europe for China isn't fit for our national team.

This set of Eagles has more players in high profile clubs than that particular set. Ighalo with .ost goals scored shouldn't have made it because in China they don't play the same football abi?

Then who should have been selected ahead of him? Patiently waiting to here your answer.
