sonature1:It's funny how those that were supporting GRV or CRV against the likes of sanwo, Doherty etc are the one's advising Sowore on having political track record. |
Jennyclay:It's funny how you people think, a broke guy does not deserve to marry and a rich guy should stick to just one woman. |
How will this change the fact that Messi is the only true GOAT! |
Former advisor to US Secretary of Defence Colonel Douglas Macgregor says: * 80% of the Ukrainian military that existed at the beginning of the war has been destroyed. * Russia has withdrawn 70 - 80% of its armed forces and the battle is now fought by the Russian-backed LPR and DPR militias. * The more the conflict lasts the more damage will be done to Ukraine and more people will be slaughtered. * Ukraine is already effectively a failed state and could be entirely erased from the map. * The longer this lasts, the larger the probability of a wider regional war.” * Mr. Putin was never interested in all of Ukraine. * The only solution is to agree to a cease-fire.

Cristiano Ronaldo is often cheekily labelled as 'Penaldo' across social media. While, yes, it might well be the lightweight jabs of Lionel Messi fans across Twitter, it does seem to have created a narrative that the Manchester United star is somewhat reliant on penalty goals. Already there is a lot to unpack about that statement and much of this entire article will revolve around just how much you think penalties should be caveated in overall goalscoring tallies. The importance of penalties? Would you say, for example, that Luis Suarez scoring 31 Premier League goals for Liverpool in the 2013/14 is all the more impressive for the fact not a single one of the strikes was a penalty? Now, look, nobody is saying that penalties are in any way easy to score because even the greatest players have missed them, but it's not a stretch to say that they're simpler than scoring in open play. A resounding victory for Messi Since the 2007/08 season in which Ronaldo won his first Ballon d'Or trophy, the PSG superstar has gotten the better of his eternal rival in 11 campaigns out of a possible 13.

This are some of the issues feminist should be tackling because time will come when all this trans will dominate female sports if nothing is done. |
TRANSGENDER fighter Alana McLaughlin won her MMA debut against Celine Provost on Friday night. McLaughlin secured a second-round win by choking out Provost, although it wasn't an easy fight for the newcomer. McLaughlin passed all medical requirements before making her MMA debut, including hormone assessments. Ahead of the fight, the debutant wrote on Twitter: "It's probably time to stop looking at social media and get focused. "See you on the other side, kittens!" McLaughlin was rocked by her rival in the first round before recovering to force a submission. The fight was initially scheduled for August 6 but was postponed after Provost tested positive for coronavirus in July. The 38-year-old is the first openly-transgender athlete to compete in MMA since Fallon Fox stepped into the cage in 2014. She came out as transgender in 2003, aged 20, but was denied gender reassignment surgery by her mum and joined the army. McLaughlin served in Afghanistan and was later diagnosed with PTSD before undergoing gender reassignment surgery in 2016. She recently began MMA training and sights Fox, who won five of her six professional MMA fights between 2012 and 2014, as her inspiration. As quoted by the Mirror, McLaughlin said: "I want to pick up the mantle that Fallon put down. "Right now, I’m following in Fallon’s footsteps. I’m just another step along the way and it’s my great hope that there are more to follow behind me. "If we want to see more trans athletes, if we want to see more opportunities for trans kids, we’re going to have to work out way into those spaces and make it happen." https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/16109962/transgender-mma-fighter-mclaughlin-wins-debut/amp/

Over the years, our factories have folded up and given rise to worship centers and we have become a praying rather than a producing nation - it didn't mean anything to us, life has continued normally as it will never breed consequences. Our agricultural sector followed, with the then bustling cocoa business, groundnut pyramid, all cash and food crops suffering abandonment. It still never meant anything. Electricity generation and distribution collapsed, we thought we could still get by. Naira started a steady slide into worthlessness in the mid-80s rather than act, devaluation was gullibly justified and defended. Then all of a sudden, a sea of unemployed graduates flooded our cities, we still felt no whiff of impending ' wahala '. Today, the situation is getting worse with the nation's domestic and foreign debt profile rising, we are citing non-profit generating infrastructural development as gains and reasons for more loans. All around us jobless young men and women seeking escape from the poisonous fangs of poverty hit their heads on narcotics. We refuse to sense trouble. Fully doped and idle, our young men embrace crime, robbing in traffic and homes. More daring ones become willing recruits of armed robbers, bandits, and insurgents killing and kidnapping to stay alive, we are blaming everyone but ourselves and our visionless leaders Our young girls find succor in the prestigious prostitution code-named " side chick" - Pleasant pastime, life moves on. Privileged rich men who created the problems become clients( sugar daddies ) of ambitious but starving young girls - trade by barter, life goes on. Pleasure for few, pain for many. No one seems to think it is a problem, life continues. Drugged side chick stabs an ' unfortunate ' sugar daddy to death. - like a movie premiere, we watch excitedly claiming hypocritical righteousness and spewing judgemental condemnations. Hunger and frustration rule over reason. But rulers refuse to read the red signals.. Rather, the situation gets compounded. Money meant for military armament amassed and mismanaged what do we get ? Just a mere mention, and is swept under but the consequences won't stay under Security agencies remain poorly equipped and operationally and logistically incapacitated. The results are here : Heavy casualties in battles, regular kidnapping of innocent students and travellers in addition to other similar cases - relations bear the heartache. The government wouldn't pay the ransom. Life goes on. In some cases, desperate bandits slaughter some of the students to prove they mean business, government would not bulge. Principle superior to purchase of peace -high-level muscle flexing Some parents of abduction victims have to sell their houses to buy freedom for their children. Those who had nothing to sell protested, weep, pray and roll on the ground openly daily in front of world press cameras seeking divine intervention as last hope, hun hun ? Nothing embarrasses us again, life goes on. Farmers cannot farm, it all doesn't matter, only politics of division does. Prices of food items skyrocket - we are only bothered about cows and grazing routes. Late Dele Giwa once wrote that Nigerians had become un- shock able. He was probably writing about now, not then. His death then was a shock to all but more gruesome murders happen daily now without even making headlines. Nothing shocks an average Nigerian again on the news no matter the enormity... " Bandits kill 15 people in...." Thank God, last week's own was even more. Gunmen kidnapped emir and 13 others... well, they have even killed an Oba before. 140 students kidnapped in Kaduna state..." They will release them " We justify the unjustifiable, explain the inexplicable and attempt to make sense of nonsense. We are trapped in a horror cage and we stay in it. Horror upon horror, sorrow after sorrow, fear, hunger, anger, danger, lack, lust, despair, deprivation, agitation, frustration, commotion, detention even execution, all have become integral parts of our daily life. Yet, in some quarters, life goes on, like all is normal. Like the only problems we have are Nnamdi Kanu, Sunday Igboho, and open grazing. But of course, arrest, incarceration, or even execution of Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho cannot stop agitations for self-determination. Kill Kanu if you can hang Igboho if you wish, the fact remains undeniably clear that only an end to injustice and corruption, and enthronement of fairness and justice, transparently detribalized governance, provision of jobs for the ever-growing population of unemployed youths, and security for lives and prosperity can bring genuine and lasting peace back to this plundered and misruled nation. Injustice and peace are strange bedfellows just as hunger and crime-free life are enemies. Kanu is not the criminal, Igboho is not the enemy. Injustice and hunger are the enemies and those who foisted them upon us are the real criminals. |

BlueBanana:Looks to me like a repackaged iPhone 8 with a better processor, better camera and more ram . |
Following Apple’s announcement yesterday of the new iPhone SE, it's likely there are a lot of iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 owners asking themselves if there phone is really worth. Starting at $400 (about 155,000 naira) for the 64GB model, you get the company's most recent A13 Bionic processor in what is essentially the body of an iPhone 8. As such, it comes with pre-iPhone X standbys like a 4.7-inch LCD Retina display, Touch ID and an aluminum outer shell. For taking photos, the iPhone SE includes a single 12-megapixel rear camera and a 7-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies. Besides additional telephoto and wide-angle lenses, what you'll forfeit by choosing the SE instead over the iPhone 11 or 11 Pro is Night mode for improved low-light photography. Looking at other parts of the iPhone SE spec sheet, what's notable here is that Apple also didn't cut corners in a lot of places Android manufacturers typically do. With the SE, you get a device that includes wireless charging and an IP67 rating for water and dust-resistance. Moreover, while it might not have a high-resolution OLED display like the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max, it's hardly a cheap screen either; you still get access to Apple's True Tone technology and DCI-P3 wide color gamut support. Apple could have also gone back to some of its worst past inclinations and made the higher storage configurations significantly more expensive, but it showed restraint there too. If you want the 128GB model, it's only $49 (about 19,000 naira) extra. Meanwhile, you'll pay a $149 (about 58,000 naira) premium to own the 256GB model. At least on paper, the new iPhone SE doesn't feel like it will be a significant step down from its more expensive siblings. More so than any other iPhone before it, the SE shows Apple's other iPhones cost too much. Yes, there's something to be said about the fact the SE won't have the best camera setup, the most modern display or the biggest battery. But it also makes a compelling argument that those things shouldn't cost $1,000 (about 386,000 naira) or more. To some extent, all manufacturers are guilty of pricing their high-end devices higher than they should, but Apple has consistently been among the worst offenders.

Christians around the world celebrated Easter Sunday under corona virus lockdown with church pews empty and the pope on livestream. At the climax of Holy Week for most of the planet's Christians, congregations were shuttered at home to avoid spreading the pathogen that has infected nearly 1.8 million people worldwide. Easter is the most important Christian festival commemorating Jesus Christ's resurrection. Pope Francis was set to break with centuries of tradition by taking his Easter mass online, with Saint Peter's Square, packed every year with worshippers, left deserted. On Saturday, Pope Francis livestreamed his Easter Vigil to the world's 1.3 billion Catholics from an almost empty St Peter's Basilica. "Darkness and death do not have the last word," he said. "As the days go by and fears grow, even the boldest hope can dissipate. Let us not give in to resignation ... We can and must hope," said the pontiff. Francis was praised by Italy's Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte for his "gesture of responsibility" to observe Easter in private. reference: https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/inpictures/pictures-easter-coronavirus-lockdown-200412061740063.html
