This is despicable. No matter what, this is not polite behaviour.

In as much as his administration was one of the worst if not the worst, it's not called for.

I supported the man in 2015 with full chest, but despise him when his government went astray.
People who voted for him always have excuse to give... When his government went astray. But alot of us warned you people na.... Which one be go astray again?

I ate my mother's contraceptive pills thinking they were sweets since they were in different colours... I was left under my grandmother's supervision and you know old people, they easily get tired and would eventually let their guard down.

Since I was in the house and in my parents' bedroom, she thought I was just playing and not doing anything out of the ordinary... Unknown to her, I was snooping around... I even rubbed some of the pills on my eyelids like eyeshadows...🤦🤦🤦... My grandmother still didn't pay much attention with my new makeover... grin grin grin... It wasn't until my mother came home, noticed my face and started interrogating me... Long story short, I ended up getting rushed to the hospital for a check up even though I didn't feel anything wrong with me... After some tests, I was cleared from any harm.
Geez! Thank God no harm o....some scary stuff, contraceptive pills?

This is a welcomed development.


We need more competent plastic surgeons in Nigeria.


It's not bad correcting or enhancing your looks to boost your confidence and self esteem, and to increase your attractiveness and likeability.


The rest of the world has been doing it, Africa must embrace it.


The Surgeon did a very great job.


They need to work towards making it more affordable, especially boobs lift, bbl, and tummy tucking so that our ladies can look more appealing to us cool
Confidence and self esteem my foot. That means prof Oby Ozeakwili will need like 5 plastic surgeries to gather confidence and self esteem? What about Joe Odumakin? Aisha Yesufu? People like you made late Stella Obasanjo die in her prime.

So it's all team mates that are there right. I didn't even see Portugal national coach Martinez. What about that?
Are you sure you followed this event? Martinez words after the funeral:

“Today was a day that we showed that we are a very, very large but close family, We are Portugal … we are together and we will always be together.” Coming from their Spanish coach.

This funeral was a call to duty for CR7 as captain, as far as he wasn't in a dire situation, he has no excuse not to be at Jota's funeral.

I'm putting to you now, gather all the football stars there, they won't generate traffic and paparazzi Ronaldo alone will bring.
I'm not talking about this issue again
Whats with you and this traffic and paparazzi stuff? Who cares? The fact remains that this act of Ronaldo did not go down well with fans and it will hunt him for a long time. He had just one simple task everyone expected him to do as a captain, spend less than 2 hours with the bereaved just to show support, but no he opted to be in a yacht at the time Jota was being lowered to the ground. If you like talk, if you like don't talk, Ronaldo has failed to live up to the expectations of a leader as far as this funeral is concerned.

Holidaying is not the reason, you and I already heard the reason so lets not beat around the bush
You mentioned he was holidaying. Anyways, the reason is not excusable, it doesn't make sense. If Ronaldo wasn't the Captain that would have been a different case. Team mates, captain, coach, FA representative etc must be available for the family or who else will if this core persons that revolves around Jota's short but impressive life are not there to stand by them.

So bcus I am captain, leader and head of a corporation I can't have phobia for something and live my life
Did he mention phobia of leading? I don't get you. To be a captain, leader or head of a corporation you think say na moi moi. You will pick up calls at the middle of the night while all your members are sleeping, you will go to police station to bail members and write statement, you will go to motuary even to identify body in cases where the family members of a dead team member can't be reached, you think say na to wear captain band up n Dan, or to be leader for mouth.

Oh! You picked on the Allison angle and left the main reason I stated up there
What other reason? That his appearance will distract the funeral.... That his reason is silly and selfish. His he the only big star? Even if paparazzi and all, can't he do his bid and leave immediately Jota is lowered. That excuse makes no sense.

Again now is a superstar, not like 2005 when he was still up coming.... Is another of his silly reason. 2005, over 20 years ago, he should be wiser and know that as a captain there are certain moral obligations attached to your role. Never be caught off guard, especially by the press. What Ronaldo just did will not be forgotten easily.

At the burial itself it wouldn't have make sense cus it may takes people's mind of the burial itself. Do you know Ronaldo has been holidaying in that yacht even before Jota died.
And they media know, they're just looking for a way to draw traffic.
So he cannot honor a dead team member because of holiday?

My friend, being a captain or leader is no childs play. The burden of the team lies on the leader. If he just a human and cannot shoulder responsibilities, he shouldn't be the captain my friend

Man what are you even saying, as a captain not as his brother, family or something of sort. Even family's, brother, sisters, father, mother do miss their siblings and blood relatives burial with one reason or the other talkless of a captain. The question here is did he paid Jota and family any condolence msg
Responsibility is the question here! No responsible member of a family member will miss such when he has the means to be available. Parents are excluded from the burial rites in some tradition as it is seen as a taboo, doesn't mean they will not be available at the premise. Guy stop bringing flimsy excuses, Portugal has no such tradition that is why he is being dragged publicly. Ronaldo ought to be more responsible than this!
PoliticsRe: You're Defending A Man Who Built No School For 8yrs, Wike's Aide Slams Farotimi by smtx(m): 10:41am On Jul 08, 2025
BXNX:
This exchange is another flashpoint in Nigeria’s escalating political war of words ahead of 2027. Farotimi’s sharp critique of Wike clearly touched a nerve, but Olayinka’s response calling him a “human rice and beans activist” feels more personal than constructive. Whether Wike built schools or not is a fair question for public debate, but dismissing every critic as irrational only distracts from real governance issues. What Nigerians want is less name-calling and more accountability. If Wike’s record is solid, it should speak for itself without needing insults. And if Farotimi is wrong, counter him with facts not fire.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvQR89X3C-E?si=MTgj5XkyObBaKxx0
This Lere guy doesn't use facts, he just opens his mouth and hauls insult like a tout. I remember the last time Rufai Oseni shook him small with facts, he was busy hauling insults instead of presenting facts. If he can't stand Rufai in a simple dialogue is it Farotimi he wants to slam? The Farotimi I know will not engage with such a low life stomach Infrastructure spokesman.

Always try to read and reason well before commenting. Ronaldo is huge figure in football. Is appearance alone there will cause so much paparazzi and divert attention from the main purpose of the event.
In 2005 when he wasn't even quarter of the superstar he is today, media and press mobbed him at his father's funeral forgetting why they came which was the burial. So he doesn't want that to happen again now that he's a superstar.
Ok Allison Jota's team mate miss the burial. Did you hear his reason for missing.
How can you compare Allison to Ronaldo? Club team mate is no where near National Captain... What are you even saying? Do you even know the responsibility of a National Captain goes beyond the pitch?

Honestly believe me if you will. The only thing a dead person is owed is what I stated above. Any other thing na jara.
Will the prayers bring he or she back to life. Will the prayers make God accept his or her soul if he or she is a bad person. Think am yourself nah
It doesn't bring back the dead but it gives the loved ones left behind support and strength to face the dark period. It makes them feel they are not grieving alone. As a captain he has no reason in this world not to be at the funeral of a team mate, no reason at all!

Thank you for saying it as it is. Apart from traumatized, Ronaldo I know will break down in tears cus he can't handle his emotions and that will give the media food for writing about him and focusing on him

As a leader there are responsibilities you must carry out and not deligate. If he can't play the role of a captain outside the pitch, then he isn't worth being called one

Wallade:
Noted, I was trying to buttress the point that he owes no one, not even me, an explanation or apology about his absence at any event or funeral.
As a captain you are not just the leader of your team in the field, you are responsible for every team players wellbeing too. Moral support and guidance is key attribute of any leader. Leaders must not be friends/pals to every member of his team but when support his needed by a team member or his family as in this case an unbiased support is necessary. Ronaldo is supposed to lead other football stars in this gathering, it is called support not show off.

Attending is optional, sincerely but media must talk sha
Not by force, but a responsibility as captain. There are certain things we do in life that isn't mandatory but because of our responsibility we just have to be available. To be a captain of a national team is not for show, it's for guidance, support, etc.

HealthRe: Why Do Doctors In Nigeria Tell Patients Not To Eat After A Surgery? (photo) by smtx(m): 1:13pm On Jul 07, 2025
WesleyPepper:
Nigerians are one of the loudest yet ignorant folks on the face of the earth .
Especially those clowns who luckily found themselves in first world countries.

Who told the clown every patient can eat immediately after surgery in Canada or anywhere for that matter and that patients cannot eat immediately after surgery here in Nigeria .

- There are various factors that determine whether a patient can eat immediately after surgery or not .

- E.g A patient cannot eat immediately after surgery anywhere in the world after some major surgeries involving extensive bowel resection .


Here in Nigeria too, we feed patients few hours after thyroid surgery or key hole procedures such as removal of the gall bladder .

- If you operated on the leg or hand eg fixation of a fracture . Patients eat immediately they recover from Anaesthesia

So eating or not eating after surgeries depend on plenty factors.

In a bid to run down Nigerian Doctors, the lousy clown has only exposed his own ignorance
Damn! This guy is wicked! grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin I hope those clowns get to see this

Caseless:
you are built on the assumptions thrown around by the west that, once people don't live according to their own dictates, they're suppressed.

You live in "freedom" in Nigeria, are you better than the Iranians? Have you seen their technological advancement? I'd rather be suppressed as a citizen of Iran than free as Nigerian. What do you think they have in the west that they don't have?

Take away the sanctions and you'd see how big Iran is economically.
No doubt Iran is big economically even with sanctions it's Tech advancement can never be compared to Nigeria. I agree completely with you. And the West also acknowledge this fact. However, you will not agree with me that suppression of rights is astounding in this present govt than ever before. Defying compulsory veiling is imprisonment, women are treated as second class citizens as regards rights to marriage, child custody, employment etc. Women rights activist are given death penalty example: Sharifeh Mohammad. Ethnic and religious minorities are tortured and sometimes put to death.

The govt censor media, jamms satellite TV channels, they continue to block and filter apps and social media platforms. Infact, early dis year the Supreme leader approved the decree prohibiting the use of VPN. Iran's list of suppression and human right abuses is endless, and of the truth we are better off in Naija, but you will choose to be sentimental towards your religion.
