Read my post again but slowly. He didn't dictate to the generals, it was a consensus decision by the hierarchy.

Richy4:
Ok... If it is not about Trump, and it is about the military...Who is the commander in chief?...

Are u saying the general is higher in rank than the commander in chief?

Yes which is for every serving unit of the army irrespective of your sexual orientation.

AZeD1:
??
Viagra for combat purposes?

Which is used for combat purposes.. Go and check.

AZeD1:
The US military spends more money on Viagra than on trans people so your argument doesn't hold.

This is not about Trump, its a out the military. He's not against gays or les in the army, Infact the generals gave him a go ahead.

Richy4:
if you have followed Donald Trump from his campaign to being the president, You would have realised that
1. He tries to tolerate blacks, He got irritated seeing them..
2. He hated gays and transgender
3. He doesn't fancy independent women..
4. He loved his family and they can do no wrong.

The cost he just mentioned was an excuse...Those transgender in military can do what other sexual orientation guys can do..If they are under performing in their duties, i think they should be sacked...Some of them have taken bullets to make sure America still remain the land of the free..

The reason for removing them is not because they are not humans, its because they cost the military more money to maintain. How can you be maintaining machineries and also be maintaining humans x2 the cost of defined sexual oriented soldiers?

Richy4:
You are right.. If they are performing well in the military, and doing their job well, why would anyone exclude them because of their sexual orientation..that is discrimination..But many won't understand..

If its not affecting the American paycheck, why then are they banning them? Its no longer their lives once its the govt that foot the bills of their deliberate confusion, its now the business of the public. Stick to one side and stop exploiting the system.

0b100100111:
It's there life, not yours!

Does it affect you in any way?

Trans always want to eat their cake and have it.

Don't want to leave either side, today they are taking the ddick, tomorrow they are banging the holle.. Yeye greedy things.

See all the oil needed for frying chicken ending up on a human being's face.. misplaced priority.

I will still take the before than the after.

At least my bedsheet won't be having oil stain.

4 fingers pointing back at you and your relatives. Karma karma karma

May they all crash into the Atlantic Ocean including Buhari

Sorry guys, I was mixing up olufemi with Ajiboye

Ajiboy mounts the goal for plateau utd.

I think he needs a call up since it seems rotimi Sunday is too old as same said.

So all these clubs have better defense than Enyimba? When last did you watch ajiboye mount the goal for Enyimba?

kingphilip:
what i wanted to correct

clean sheets might be due to good defenders and not great goalkeepers

If clean sheet doesn't matter, is it saves that I don't no where to go to check that should matter? Are you saying Enyimba defense is worse than that of the top 5 clubs of these clean sheet goalies?

Mickael2:
Clean sheets does not equate to a GK's ability. In fact check their saves per game ratio then come back and confirm

Ajiboye, the best in our league? Where is Sunday of rivers utd? Do you know that we have goalkeepers the season that have kept clean sheets for almost 1O matches? Ajiboye is not even in the top 5 of clean sheets. Sunday rotimi is not there too but I would say we take him instead of akoeyi

Mickael2:
Akpeyi went to the U20 with Ideye, probably the worst U20 set we have ever assembled until recent times though so what he is doing here doesn't make sense to me at all, he was poor then, he developed poorly and still is poor.

Personally Ajiboye is the best GK we have in the local league so why do you keep on hammering Ezenwa?

So your neighbor is now compared to a demon Jesus recognized even by name? pray tell, what are the names of the demons in your neighbor's body that you want to kill? even Jesus never killed any demon because demons don't die, rather he casted the demons out of the body of that man. he didn't kill the man nor the demon.

Make una dey turn bible upside down to support una wicked prayers that's nor biblical!.

Jesus didn't teach anyone to kill his or her neighbors, infact he told you all to love your neighbor, pray for them that persecute you, bless those who curse you. these were his words... but then this is Nigeria where Christianity is practiced upside down.

ayooluniran:
she/he didn't turn the bible upside down. John20:23 are the very words of Jesus. If you allow evil (demons/powers/witches/ wizards evilen and women) to kill you, you die and go to hell for not exercising the power God gave to you and not fulfilling your destiny. Meanwhile if the evil person repents, they go to heaven.

Christians claiming to be too defended, let me ask you, why are you still sick? Why are you still poor, why are wicked people still prospering and ruling US? Why are christians dying? It's because we have not started to follow the principles of spiritual warfare.

There is a time to love and a time to refrain. The enemies that we should love are not enemies who will attack you spiritually, tie down your star till you're 60years old, and finish you off in an accident. Those enemies know what they are doing. It is we Christians that are ignoramus. The enemies we should love and pray for are those that don't know what they are doing....I.e steals your money, slaps you, those that do things that are more physical in contesting with you.

But once they go spiritual, you've got to fight back, and be on the offensive.

For me, I refuse to give my enemy a free day.

People die because its their time, no freaking demon killed them, you think it's your prayers that's keeping you alive? or you think its because you know how to shout "die die die" that's making you prosper or not fall sick? let me burst your burble, there are millions of people that aren't Christians nor praying your die die prayers, yet are blessed with prosperity and good health, so don't think it's your so called antagonistic prayers that's doing any wonders.

See as this one turn bible upside down. ndoh

preetyb:
The bible say, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers in high places.

Nevertheless humans are the principalities and powers we speak of when they become transform to carry out their evil activities.
The devil use humans as his agent to do his work.

Even Jesus himself had to command the evil personality in peter to get behind him by addressing peter as Satan she he said " get thee behind me Satan".
Have you asked yourself why Christ rebuke peter when he ought to have just prayed for peter.
Christ knew the devil want to use peter to stop his mission somehow so he had to stop the devil by rebuking the evil principality and power using peter.

Now, some of you here criticizing churches praying for their enemies to die, can not tolerate your fellow human when they offend you, you are always quick to slap back, fight back , and even wish evil on the person. Are you not an hypocrite for doing that?.

Some of you have been crying for jungle justice on the badoos and bokoharam killing people because you all fear for your lives. Why not pray for them?.
Yet you criticize the one praying to God for vegeance .

It is not compulsory for you to kill your enemies for you to live, you can let them kill you for them to leave and God will give you your reward in heaven that is, if you will even make heaven.

Very valid question!

enomakos:
sokoto may be safe but is there a good stadia there?

Same mate.

Icon4s:
Please I am done with that discussion.

I have made my points and you have made yours.

We cannot change each other's perception so let's just live with it.

Chai, another failure.. Lolz I said the closest I have ever been to is kwara. Gosh, if you can't comprehend, how then can you understand or make sound judgements?
Not an insult, just some questions..

Anyways enjoy sir

Petrobros:
You see. I was right. You are Kwara, a Northern state and you are obviously a Muslim. I said Muslim North so I was right. Loz!!

Again, this same back and forth excuses, if they are stealing, who allowed them to? Aliens or the citizens?

When you finish making excuses, you will return back to knowing that it's the citizens who allow what they face in their country to continue.
Is it not the same citizen that cry foul if a minute leader wants to hunt down some of the thieves?!
Is it not the same citizens that religionize, ethnicitize, spiritualized any moves towards righting wrongs?

You want to run to other countries like those citizens didn't suffer to have their own country working.

Once more, keep up the excuses, angels are coming to build weapons, fix roads, elect right citizens into offices, stop giving/taking bribes, stop act of mental laziness, unproductivity etc

k199192:
You just want to come and be speaking plenty grammar.
Is it common citizens that are stealing the common wealth of our country?
Talking about independence, after the independence of Americans, they had visionary leaders and thats what we have lacked up til today. We have the likes of tinubu obasanjo amaechi and the list never ends. So tell me if I am wrong to asert that there is no way forward for Nigeria. Mandela did well for his people because he had a vision. Go and read how the Chinese started, they had visionary leaders. Read about dubai while you are at it. The common thing among most of these countries is VISION. And who made sure this vision came alive? The leaders.
please dont quote me again if you dont get my point.

Same as yours which lacks objectivity.

Icon4s:
If that is your opinion. Good.
You are entitled to it.

I was thinking Abuja too but wanted to let him know even Kano is not bad for tour either.

zicky:
I gat to correct something.

The Man united vs portmouth game was played in Abuja and not Kano. Portmouth also played kano pillars in the same abuja stadium, Utaka, babayaro played that match can't really remember the score line, should be 6-0 or 7-0

Work more on your objectivity, both assertions you made about my mention are 1OO% wrong, the closest to north I can say for me is Kwara and I also have no love for any political party.

I also don't do religion(at least not the type of religions in Nigeria), another epic fail.

My comments are more on Nigeria and not a region, I guess you skipped my comments that supported tours in Uyo or any other parts of Nigeria.

Anyways work more on your ability to judge from distance.

Petrobros:
You are daring me o.

You did not make much comment on the topic. But from the little you made I know you are not a Muslim.

Icon4s is obviously a Christian and from that part of the country where they "fear North" a lot. He sounds like a PDP sympathiser.

Tbaba1234 obviously sounds like a Muslim and also an APC sympathiser. He doesn't sound like a Northerner. He could be from Kwara though.

Somehow is obviously a Northern Muslim and a strong APC supporter.

Guys don't fire rockets at me o. This is just my observation. My point is we cannot completely eliminate sectional, political and Religious reasoning from sports even though we try not to. It creeps in once in a while.

http://www.sundaymail.co.zw/libyans-regret-miss-life-under-gaddafi/

Five years on from Britain’s ‘ill conceived’ military intervention to dispose of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, ordinary people in Libya say life was better under the European labelled despot than the anarchy and threat of ISIS in the country today. Crippled by power black-outs, a five-fold increase in the cost of food, salaries unpaid for months and the threat of terror, citizens who took up arms against Gaddafi now say their quality of life was better under the feared dictator.

They claim his execution has led to a power vacuum that has created ‘six million little Gaddafis’ and they no longer feel safe to leave their homes after dark.

Amid the chaos and lack of security, 8 000 African migrants a day cross the border into Libya and live along its coastline waiting to cross the Mediterranean to Europe.

“I joined the revolution in the first days and fought against Gaddafi,” former revolutionary fighter Mohammed, 31, said from the southern city of Murzuq.

“Before 2011, I hated Gaddafi more than anyone. But now, life is much, much harder, and I have become his biggest fan.”
Taxi driver Mahmoud added, “Before Libya was much better.”

Oil worker Haroun, 41, said, “Getting rid of Gaddafi was clearly a mistake because we weren’t ready for democracy and we needed support from the international community, which just wasn’t there.”

Activist Fadiel added, “It should be better than Gaddafi’s time now but, because of the chaos and everyone fighting each other, it’s just a mess.”

Their comments echo the findings of influential British politicians who have condemned former Prime Minister David Cameron’s ‘chaotic’ 2011 intervention in Libya.

In a devastating verdict, the House of Commons foreign affairs committee this week savaged former prime minister David Cameron’s judgement in rushing to war – and said the intervention was based on ‘erroneous assumptions’.

An international coalition led by Britain and France launched strikes against Gaddafi’s forces in March 2011 after the regime threatened to attack the rebel-held city of Benghazi.

Cameron claimed the intervention was necessary to prevent a massacre of civilians, but the new report says that, despite appalling human rights abuses over 40 years, Gaddafi had no record of large-scale attacks on Libyan civilians.

However, the cross-party committee accused the Conservative of ignoring military chiefs and a lack of reliable intelligence to pursue an ‘opportunistic policy of regime change’ in Libya.

It says Cameron gave little thought to how Libya would fare following the removal of Gaddafi, setting the scene for the country’s descent into chaos.

Libyans today confirmed to the politicians’ findings as they have described their daily battles to survive.
Ordinary people now face daily electricity cuts of up to nine hours, a serious cash crisis, which prevents them from accessing their salaries, sky high prices for essential goods and shortages of medical supplies.

Widespread corruption has also prompted the black-market rate for foreign currency to triple against the increasingly worthless Libyan dinar.

Nuri, 34, a businessman from Tripoli added, “It’s not so much about being pro-Gaddafi because he was a crazy leader who was actually quite embarrassing internationally.

“It’s just that people’s lives are so difficult now compared to under Gaddafi.”
The situation is so bad some Libyans, previously among the richest people in the Arab world, are considering fleeing the country on migrant boats to start a new life in Europe.

Medical student Salem, 26, from Tripoli, said, “We thought things would be better after the revolution, but they just keep getting worse and worse.

“Far more people have been killed since 2011 than during the revolution or under 42 years of Gaddafi’s rule combined.
“We never had these problems under Gaddafi.

“There was always money and electricity and, although people did not have large salaries, everything was cheap, so life was simple.

“Some of my friends have even taken the boat to Europe with the migrants because they feel there is no future for them here.
“I would like to escape this mess and study abroad but I have been waiting a year for a new passport and, even when I do get one, it will be hard to get a visa because all the embassies left in 2014.

“So now I feel like a prisoner in my own country. And I have started to hate my own country.”
An ex-pat British housewife, who moved to Libya with her Libyan husband 20 years ago, says it is no longer safe to go out at night.

Sara, 50, a mother-of-one said, “I used to walk home alone at midnight with no fear.
“But now I don’t like to go outside alone after dark. I don’t feel safe.”

As well as a lack of security, the very fabric of Libyan society has broken down with provinces, towns and tribes retreating into themselves.

“Libya died with Gaddafi,” Tebu Mohammed said.
“We are not a nation anymore. We have become just warring groups of tribes, towns and cities.
“Before, there was just one Gaddafi but now we have six million little Gaddafis.”

Successive post-revolutionary governments, parliaments and leaders have all failed to provide ordinary Libyans with basic security, let alone address their daily struggles.

“We have had seven governments since 2011 and what have they achieved?” asked Mahmoud.
“The only thing we can see is new dustbins because one of the early governments installed these new large bins across Tripoli.
“We still point to them and laugh, saying it’s the only achievement of the revolution.”

With two rival governments, a democratically-elected one now operating beyond its mandate in eastern Libya, and the UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) in Tripoli, some say Libya is already on the verge of partition.

“The country is already divided. We have two governments, two parliaments, two Central banks and two National Oil Companies,” said former Libyan diplomat Abdusalem, 48.

“The so-called revolution was lies, all lies. We Libyans did not even know what the word revolution meant. We had been sheltered under Gaddafi for 42 years.

“It was not Libya’s revolution, it was NATO’s revolution because they wanted to get rid of Gaddafi.’
Riots have broken out at banks as people are forced to queue for hours in the stifling heat at banks to withdraw a restricted amount of money.

Bank security guards shot and killed three people in a bank queue in May this year. The price of basic goods, including imports, have gone through the roof as shipping company insurers have classified Libya as a war zone.

And food subsidies have been cut.
Fadiel, from Ras Lanuf, said, “(Under the Gaddafi regime) You could buy 20 loaves with one dinar but now you can only buy five, and they are smaller.

“Cooking oil was subsidised under Gaddafi and cost 1,75 dinar per 1 litre but because of shortages, some businessmen buy it from warehouses and resell it for 5 Libyan dinar. Bread and oil are the most basic commodities.”

He added, “Hospitals are running out of basic medicines, for epilepsy and diabetes, and people are now buying them from private pharmacies at double their previous prices. And we are struggling to get our children vaccinated because of shortages, particularly in rural areas.”

As their dreams of a prosperous post-Gaddafi Libya lay in the dust, most people say now they only want peace.
One said, “I cannot see how there will be peace in this country for another 10 years, but peace and stability is all that ordinary Libyans want.”

Meanwhile, the United Nations special envoy to Libya has warned that there are some 235 000 migrants on the country’s shore’s preparing to make the dangerous Mediterranean Sea crossing to Italy.

In a stark warning at the escalation of Europe’s migrant crisis, UN envoy Martin Kobler said, “We have on our lists 235 000 migrants who are just waiting for a good opportunity to depart for Italy, and they will do it.”

In an interview with Italy’s La Stampa newspaper, Kobler called for greater international intervention to restore security in Libya. – MailOnline.

I didn't see such.

Any foreign club can tour Nigeria if they want. If foreigners troop into Nigeria daily, then I see no reason why a tour for clubs can't take place here.

The league is on and every part of the country is being used for league matches including borno!

Icon4s:
Go back and read up and you'll see the comment.

Yes I like their plan.

Include a referendum in our constitution.

If you think you are not okay in Nigeria, you leave to create your own eldorado

Be fair, are both mate? More than 2OO years of independence compared to about 5O+ independence.

All the same, let each country run at her own pace.

BTW, its not a country's name that makes a country. Its the people in it that make a country.

What exactly have you and each of us contributed to making Nigeria a great nation?

Its the citizens of America that brought them to where they are now, not aliens, its the citizens of other countries that's making their countries what they are, can same be said of Nigerians? We push blames and run from responsibility, yet expect to be great.

Let's keep blaming the leaders without us doing our part forgetting that the leaders were once like us (without doing anything either).

If you as individual isn't doing anything as a citizen, what makes you think you will do something as a leader?

How many of our laws do individuals respect and uphold? No we will surely blame the leaders for also not respecting the laws in the first place so sir our problems is down up not up down.

No I don't and your points are disappointing.

Icon4s:
Bros...i am sure you know what I am talking about.

I have made my points.

Which comment claimed the north is safer?
Did EPL team tell you they were asked to choose between Nigeria and Tanzania? I don't get!

Icon4s:
I was only reacting to a comment that the North is safer than the South I terms of hosting such games/tours.

As I said before the world is a global village. They see things and they here things.

An average English man does not know the distance between Maiduguri and Uyo. So don't blame any EPL team that chooses to play in Tanzania instead of Nigeria.

And heavily guarded security men aren't used on the tours so far? You mean no special security Re being used in Asia, south america and some African countries during club tours? Tell me what I don't know oga

Icon4s:
The world is a global village.

Things have changed between that 2008 to now.

Football is meant to be played in a peaceful and exciting atmosphere. I cannot go to a stadium that will need to be heavily guarded by armed security men. Will the security men follow me to the parking areas. or my car or train home.

Please I have made my point.

I just don't understand him..league matches are being played in all state of the federation, ALL states, yet he thinks its okay in Tanzania but not in Nigeria.

tbaba1234:
That has changed a lot though. BH attacks for the past year has been limited to Borno. Even Elkanemi has returned to Borno for their home games.

Foreigners work and live in these states. Infact, all the tour games can be located in one stadium.

The original poster mentioned Tanzania (a country), someone reminded him of a similar stuff that occurred in Nigeria (Kano), you claimed that was then, even if the whole 19 States in the north is under war in your eyes, what about other parts of Nigeria? Can't Uyo host whatever Tour that any foreign club wants to do? Let's stop all this downgrading we do jare and be fair for once!

Icon4s:
You will take Man United to Sokoto to go and play pre-season tour. I hope you'll escort them?
