His brother playing at Panathinaikos bear same surname with him.

Well i understand your other points. too bad he can't play for us. he's very good, watch him alot at Bucks. He's their leader there!
9jaRealist:
No, they don’t - only the ones born in Greece...
His eldest brother’s name is spelt Adetokunbo and so does his PARENTS (who did/do not have Greek nationality).

Btw, it is not a requirement to have been to Nigeria to be Nigerian. The only requirement for Nigerian citizenship is that one of your parents is Nigerian. In fact, one does not even require a Nigerian passport to be Nigerian. Thus by definition and by law, dude is Nigerian regardless of whether he has been to Nigeria, played for Nigeria or intended to play for Nigeria. Akeem Olajuwon played for the US but is undisputedly a Nigerian, so the country that one elects to play for is IRRELEVANT in determining nationality. Meanwhile, it’s interesting that of all of the international flags that the dude can have on his Twitter, Instagram, post discussing racism, and his team’s training facility, including the flag of the US where he resides and earns his living, he specifically choose those of Greece (where he was born and raised) and Nigeria (where his biological parents came from and where born and raised), and yet it supposedly have no bearing on his SELF-IDENTIFICATION.

9jaRealist:
Giannis (and his older brother) has already represented Greece in the FIBA Euro qualifiers...

However, his name remains Adetokunbo. The official spelling is the Greek-letter spelling of Adetokunbo but spells out differently when that official Greek lettering is translated into English (Roman) letters. The pronunciation remains the same - Adetokunbo.
So if you move to Germany, your name is then spelt in German and you no longer have your normal spellings in your passport?

Udeze played in greece for years and never was his surname spelt in Greek on his passport.

We have foreigners playing everywhere in the world with their names boldly written as known worldwide, none changed to a foreign spelling!

Oscar remains Oscar even in China
Same with Paulinho and Hulk.

So why that of Giannis?

He has the NIGERIAN flag on his official Twitter profile, and click on the link below and see the proud NIGERIAN flag on his Insta message: https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/nba/bucks/2018/11/15/instagram-post-giannis-supports-brother-target-racist-comment/2010429002/

.
Having a Nigerian flag means nada, alot of oyibos bought our SE jerseys at the last worldcup, does that make them Nigerians?

He doesn't even have a Nigerian passport, never been to Nigeria, never played for us, never intended to, he's greek and there's nothing like an error in his surname. It was done deliberately because all his other brothers bear same surname! They all play basketball!

PoliticsRe: Army Reacts To Invasion Of Tamunosisi Gogo-Jaja's Home In Rivers by somehow: 3:43am On Mar 09, 2019
Now this is how a professional body respond to allegations.

stephenduru:
PRESS RELEASE :

ALLEGED INVASION OF THE RESIDENCE OF RIVERS STATE COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION BY SECURITY AGENTS

The Nigerian Army (NA) has observed some CCTV footages in circulation on social media and other online platforms, allegedly showing soldiers of the NA and other security agents invading the residence of the Rivers State Commissioner of Education, Hon. Dr. Tamunosisi Gogo-Jaja.

The NA has started conducting a comprehensive forensic investigation of the footages to authenticate the validity or otherwise of the claims to guide its further actions.

In the view of these allegations, the NA, for the umpteenth time, categorically reiterate its position in the entire conduct of the 2019 General elections as severally and consistently espoused and
directed by the Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen TY Buratai which is - "NA is apolitical, neutral, impartial and will not compromise its constitutional roles under any guise".

For RE-emphasis, NA's responsibility in the entire electioneering process is only to assist civil authority, Nigeria Police and other relevant security agencies to - “provide a secure, peaceful and enabling environment for the successful and transparent conduct of the election”. Anything beyond this is not authorized and therefore totally unacceptable by the leadership of the NA.

Any military personnel comfirm to be involved in any professional misconduct, such a person/s would be dealt with decisively in accordance with the law.

To this end, the NA wishes to request well-meaning Nigerians to always forward genuine complaints and evidences of professional misconduct against any of its personnel for investigation and necessary action.

The fact than am APC and the poeople of kano support the re-election of president Buhari doesn't mean we are blind to underperforming APC governors.
The legacy left by kwankwaso might never be matched again in kano.
in terms of infrastructure, development and even the education ur emphasizing on.
kwakwaso introduced free education in kano, he even went ahead to sponsoring scholarship to the outstanding a legacy you couldn't continue or even manage.
today some students are stranded outside the country. you couldn't continue paying their dues and you come here to criticize kwankwaso.
the fact that kano voted APC at the presidential election doesn't mean your re-election is guaranteed..
