Malawian: How did you feed or fight for them? did you put boots on ground? how many Nigerians fell to the bullets of the Apartheid regime? Was it not South Africans that were on ground fighting and dying for their freedom? I really don't like this glory seeking we Nigerians are known for. There is a Fulani Apartheid now ongoing in Nigeria, oya start fighting. Go and read your history books! Do you know the impact of the political and economic supper Nogeria gave to black South Africans? Why asking questions like did we put boots on the ground? Was there a war?? And in every major African war have Nigerian troops not been on the ground? From Congo to Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali...we send our troops everywhere... Why so much hate on return? |

XhosaNostra: Thank you for this bitter truth! Don't let sporting rivalry make you a bitter ingrate. Nigeria stood for black South Africa against the major world powers. The question of boots on the ground is moot because there was never a war! |

femi4: No, he passes to no one. He doesn't pick anyone to pass to. He just pass the ball hoping that a SE player will be there Thank you sir! The sense of anger i feel when i read some of these posts. As if Ighalo should just magically appear wherever Musa decides to hit the ball to. I don't even blame Musa. The coach should know that Musa is better at dribbling to shoot not dribbling to cross, especially when you put him on the left. |

holllandis: Have you noticed that Ahmed Musa is being unselfish the but the problem is he passes the ball to ighalo who either waste it or the ball is passed to no one in particular
Please let someone tell the coaching crew this This is how Myths are created. From the start of this tournament has Musa completed up to three passes to Ighalo in the box? I remain ready to eat humble pie if you can confidently say yes. Musa has been doing this in all the games he has started so far. He dribbles well, creates an opening and then passes it either straight to the nearest defender or lofts it over everyone's head. Why do fans delight in picking on Ighalo?? The man is our top scorer. Against Burundi you all saw that there was virtually no prospect of scoring until he came on. He makes the runs but he needs intelligent passers and runners around him. |

rottennaija: Ighalo is really a poor finisher. His movement in the box is really poor. The problem with most of you is that you think of football in terms of Play Station games. Ighalo is not Musa's problem. Musa's problem is that his crosses and passes lack accuracy! Wing play is not merely a matter of running down the flank and putting in any sort of cross at all. The crosses must be accurate or at least dangerous. Time and time again Musa kept kicking the ball without any forseeable accuracy and that is why the coach had to remove him and put on Simon in the last game. |

South African companies makes the highest profit from Nigeria than anywhere in Africa. Honestly our leaders are fools.

VivaDeAngelo: Henry Onyekuru should be given a start in the next match. He is by far the best striker Nigeria has at present. So you think the coach is going to start Ighalo from the the preliminary qualifying stage (that is before the AFCON) through to the Semi finals of the AFCON, only to drop him now? Even when Ighalo didn't start, did the coach play Onyekuru? When he subbed Ighalo off did he bring Onyekuru? Do you think the coach is mad? And besides, what makes Onyekuru the best? |

GreatPunter: I don't know the book where I read this but it's one of the greatest advice for everyone.
"A wise man never take sides." 
If you are a lawyer and you have already condemned the pastor or the victim, how can you defend them in court if they retain your legal service having previously taken sides against them publicly?
If you are a doctor, how can you treat either party professionally when you have already filled your stomach with hate against either of the party having taken sides?
If you are an engineer, how can you effectively render your professional service to a client who you have publicly condemned and taken sides against?
And the list goes on. Never take sides except it has to do with your spouse and family. good sir, I think you will find that money is a very effective motivator  If i may offer you another quote, "it is not from the generosity of the baker that we get our bread" - Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations |

mysportdab: Tunisia Goalkeeper Mouez Hassen refused to come off in the AFCON game against Ghana in shocking scenes in Egypt, MySportDab reports.
Head coach Alain Giresse had clearly planned for spot-kicks, favouring his reserve keeper Farouk Ben Mustapha over Mouez Hassen.
So as the clock ticked towards full time, Ben Mustapha was gloved-up and ready to come on at the touchline.
But when Hassen saw his number go up, the keeper began waving his hand furiously as he refused to be brought off.

tiwiex: I am really surprised at the exchange of words between Nigerians and Ghanaians. Sounds like it goes beyond football and that's just not good for the region. Am I the only Nigerian who wished Ghana won as a part of West Africa? Oh well. When problem start na Naija Ghanaians go come and vice versa. How many of una don go Tunisia before in the times of trouble or exploration? OK na. Make una abuse una sef finish. Na Ghana me I support sha. I'm surprised too but be assured you are not alone. I want to believe that most of those hating on the Ghanaians may have never traveled beyond the borders of Nigeria. We have a lot more that binds us in common than what may separate us. I visited Ghana last year and I was very warmly received. It's a lovely country and most Nigerians would feel at home there. So i can't imagine why some on here are rejoicing when the arabs, as much as they may fight internally, will never, and i mean never, support a black West African country over Egypt or any member of the Maghreb. And they think it is funny. But i was delighted to observe that our supporters club band played for Ghana yesterday. |

He needs the players around him to be sharp, which is why the coach needs to start the likes of Chukwueze more. And btw he was top scorer in qualifying so his record of consistency is proven. |

Celebrities › Re: COZA Rape: Busola Dakolo Files Complaint Against Biodun Fatoyinbo by SmartyPants(m): 2:18am On Jul 05, 2019*. Modified: 2:48am On Jul 05, 2019 |
Freehuman: Attached to this comment are screenshots of The Nigerian Evidence Act, 2011.
Under the English common law received into Nigeria by the Supreme Court ordinance of 1914 and Interpretations Act in section 45, Bukola Dakolo would have no case because of the common law doctrine of Res gestae which rendered Criminal cases useless if the evidence was not contemporaneous in time and place.
The law is dynamic and evolves to serve situations like this, thus the enactment of the Nigerian Evidence Act which renders the rules of common law void when it is inconsistent with the provisions of the Evidence Act.
Section 4 of the Evidence Act, 2011, attached below provides to the effect that evidence which occurred at a different time and place related to the fact in issue is relevant and therefore admissible in court.
Thus, the provisions of that section when read in Pari materia with sections 5-10 of the Evidence Act, makes circumstantial and character evidence admissible in court.
This is not an American Legal movie where videos (documentary evidence as defined by section 258 of the Evidence Act) and forensic evidence are required. According to the acclaimed victims story, her brother went to make trouble at the residence of the alleged predator when he became aware and there was settlement. That very act and testimony of witnesses of that act and the terms of settlement after the victim's brother's action, at about that period is enough if corroborated as circumstantial and character evidence to prove the case. In legal terms, admissible does not mean sufficient. While relevance is the test of availability, it says nothing about the weight to be attached to evidence nor it's particular probative value. I put it to you that proper examination of said Evidence Act will reveal that allegations of rape require a higher standard of corroboration, even though it is not stated in those terms. Note the following: 1. You cannot secure a conviction on character evidence. In fact, you cannot even build a case upon character evidence. See s. 82 EA 2. The res gestae in this case lacks probative value because: a. There is no way to ascertain the truth of what was discussed between the brother and Mt Fatoyinbo. b. The brother will legally be considered a tainted witness whose testimony will itself require corroboration. To illustrate, the frailties of your case, defense counsel could simply argue that the accusations against his client were blackmail on the part of Ms. Bukola who then misled her brother and Mr. Fatoyinbo had no choice but to settle. How do you reply as the prosecution? Remember that you must adduce evidence to establish any facts on which you seek to rely upon. S 131 EA |

itsme01:

Naija people.sef, Caverton and OAS would use their helicopter to pick you up at anywhere, and their charges aint so outrageous.
An hour charter of helicopter is around 250 - 300k with top charter company like Caverton, other smaller company would collect far less especially if you are a frequent flier or your company has ofshore contracts.
One village maga quoting me down there even said $12,000 per hour... mugu plenty for naija i swear.... execujets starts at $3k -$5k for a fixed wing private jet, before qouting me to argue nonsense please be reasonable and get a qoutation on the chater companies websites. No time for childish arguements.
. What is the relevance of your argument though? Does the cost of the helicopter ride determine the status of the man as billionaire? Given that his status as a billionaire is the theme of this post... I am trying to see your point. |
