Critically looking at that scene, I don't think it's fair to say he was completely selfish.
I think he was in two minds there, trying to trick the goalkeeper into thinking he would pass to Musa. The keeper seemed close to the ball, so it would be easy for him to prevent the ball from getting to Musa if Ighalo had made the pass.
That's why I feel he wasn't necessarily being selfish. Perhaps, he was out of excuses at the moment or didn't know how to explain his misdeeds, that's why he claimed he didn't see Musa in the other end. I'm pretty sure he did Lol.

Ighalo does not deserve to be in the team. We need a sharp shooter. Its amazing that Ighalo is the best we can produce as a striker.

Good day ladies and gentlemen,i have something bothering me in my mind.

I dated my wife almost 3 years before I later got married to her and she gave birth to my daughter last year.

I met her when she broke up with her ex, which was her first love, during our courtship she told me about the guy and many other stuff I can't say here.

But lately this same guy keep calling my wife that he wanted to come back, despite this guy knows fully well that my wife is nursing my baby, my wife told me but I was thinking if I should call him and warn him to desist from my wife or I should got him arrested for invading my home,.

Please how can I handle this situation without loosing my self worth

You sure say na you get the baby?
If your wife cant block him or warn him off, then start suspecting her.

I have an idea, tell your wife to video call him while you are somewhere in the background doing other things. Tell her to only pick his calls when you are both there and she should tell him to only video call.
If he still persist, he should be blocked.

Even in Kaduna

Kudos to the EFCC for their effort to curb the action of these guys.
Just last week I sent a message to an old friend of mine to congratulate him on the post he made that his friend, Jasmine, gave birth to a set of twin, He's Austrian, we met on Facebook and we used to chat till late 2016 when I wasn't regular on Facebook, to my utmost surprise when he received my message his reply was 'Please if you're intending to scam me it won't work cos I've checked your profile and it shows you're a Nigerian'. I urged him to check our previous chats maybe he'll recognise me. He later apologise to me but just imagine that.
You can't even drive to a joint again, those old men and women seeing the way you're flexing yourself will say 'Maybe he's a Yahoo boy''
EFCC GOD BLESS YOU

I can relate. My Italian ex I met in London in 2001, but have been in touch since, told me last year she had been expecting me to demand for money when I tell her of the challenges in Nigeria, but I never did. That she felt I made up some of those things. I was highly disappointed. I had to cut her off. She'd been trying to get us back, but I just can't.

On a lighter note, most things we go through here and sees as normal as extremely absurd and unbelievable. Even our mentality. The worse are our movies. Someone would collapse, and everyone would be shouting and nowhere in the script is written that the next thing to do is call ambulance. Or an ambualance does not have fuel. Doesnt make sense.
A lot of things. Our tolerance for mediocity and our mentality arr the worse.

I think It is crazy to be Washing an Engine in the first place .... been driving for more than 17 years ... engine never washed


I don't recall ever seeing anything in a service manual or an owner's manual telling you to clean the engine compartment

Oily, greasy dirt that accumulates on an engine can trap some heat, it can cause an engine to overheat or even run hotter than normal. Cleaning your car engine helps determine where oil or grease is coming from so that a small problem like a minor oil leak can be isolated and repaired before it becomes a big one. A lleaky valve-cover gasket for example.

In addition, because oil and grease can accelerate the wear of rubber hoses and plastic parts. And if you’re the type who likes to do some minor maintenance, such as checking the oil level or accessory belts, a clean engine means your hands and clothes are less likely to get dirty.

One of the chief demons tormenting Nigerians. I am sure others with trailer loads are still in power

This is normal in the North. Even Mosques have armoury

Due to the recent occurrence to my car that warranted changing of its brainbodx, I would like to post this article I found online to help others.

Read what happened to my car here >>>https://www.nairaland.com/5250500/after-engine-washing-honda-baby

The brain box is also known as Powertrain Control Module (PCM), or Engine Control Module (ECM).

Three major reasons are.

1. Removing the battery head while the key is plugged to the ignition switch

2. Allowing water get in contact with the ECM (brain box)

3. This may look unimportant but it counts, do not allow any naked wiring in your car , ensure to tape any when you find one. All the body of your car is earthy allowing any expose will result to short circuiting which may damage the ECM

I be yoruba. And i can tell pdp go field NE candidate . APC will have no choice than to also tow same path. Tinubu wey hin Lagos had 5m voters only 1m came out. Naso . Gambari o ran wa rara

APC will field SW/North and will win. PDP will field Atiku again.
In the next 4 years, PDP will finally die or split into 3. Ethno-centric mentality will also change. New younger leaders will emerge. Many old politicians will either kpai or irrelevant.
A new Nigeria will emerge bit by bit.

Run away from this manbby all means.

Our prayers is for God to heighten their offsprings.

Then an innocent somebody would then marry their offsprings and give birth to these heights again. Scam.

mmadu5:
please is honda baby boy a good car? im thinking of getting one next month , what is the maintenance like? i love the way the car looks and feels compare to pencil light

Honda does it for me. Service it when due (about once in 3 months) and have the mechanic check the ball joints for you whenever you service. I replace the ball joints roughly once a year (some people I know, once in two years).

Just like pencil, the parts are readily available. It's better looking and better interior. Pencil has better reselling value because of stereotyping/hype of Toyota cars.

Oga, i get pressure hose..... It uses steam, i can give your engine a well deserved full bath...........

NEVER AGAIN

UPDATE

Bought another brainbox for 25k. Programmer collected 5k. Transport and misclellany 5k = 35k today.

Previously spent = 40k
Today = 35k
-------------------------
total = 75k
-------------------------

The car is now working fine and reborn. Relieved, but lesson learnt.


Thanks to everyone on this thread. I appreciate. Just sharing my problems with you guys alone helped. Thanks diportivo

You just wasted.your future because of a paltry 5K, not minding your respectable profession.
Well, face the consequence of your action madam Nurse![/quote]Olodo full this NL aswear, so nursing mother is a nurse? Why are you disgracing Nigeria like this?

diportivo:
most likely sir

Thanks a lot.

I'm told brain box is 25k. Na Wa o. That will be about 65k wey I don spend. Who send me go wash engine o?

The diagnosis trouble code is P1607 PCM Internal Circuit Failure

Guys, please help interprete this code. Is it brain box I need to change?

UPDATE

I took the car to the Car Wash, first identified the guy that washed and then met with the manager. Told them how the N1.5k I gave them for washing my engine had made me spent up to 40k and still no resolves.
The manager empathised with me and eventually got me a mechanic to diagnose the car with a machine, after waiting for an hour.

The diagnosis trouble code is P1607 PCM Internal Circuit Failure

He interpreted it that I should change the brain box.

The confusion is that the brain box is inside the car by the front passenger's seat. There was no way water could reach there.

NB:
The brain box was earlier removed to be freed of code so that the key could start the car.

The known problems NOW are that the 'slow' fluctuates and the car jacks forward; and the gear doesn't select except D1 is first used and then changed to D4 later on; and finally when put at Reverse, there's a cranky sound and a sudden movement that shakes the whole car.

Will a new brain box fix all of that?

That moment when mum said

Na that call go kee you

Next time, please cover the electrical parts of your engine yourself...alll these car wash people know how to do is to use that pressure water hose to fire anything firable

Some mad ones will even spray hot water on your car body and damage the paint

I learnt a bitter lesson. I'm suppose to sue them to court for the damages if this was a normal country.
Everything is either being replaced or serviced.
E pain me o

I took my honda baby boy to wash (engine inclusive) in a very big highly equipped car washing space. I was on a long phone call throughout the wash.
I was surprised the guy did not cover the electrical parts.
So far, i have spent a lot of money because everything just started happening to the car.
One day, the car refused to recognise the key.
Fuel pump changed
Injectors and coils changed
Some other things were serviced
Now its the gear giving me headache. It has been serviced, but it makee cranking moving sound especially in R. Was told to wait about 5 days after intensive use so that the water in the electrical part of the gear would dry. That the gear is still good
I have spent so much and i am tired.

SmellingAnus:
Not a good move by him but it was a wise move... At least he is still alive and still benefiting from his selfish decision...

When an armed rapist take on your wife and children, kidnap them and rape them day and night, may you be wise to hail him and join him. May you be wise to join the people who will take what is your own just so that you dont die. Amen.

He is an idiot who follows what his stomach says. A betrayer and one of the old Nigerian politicians that should fade away.
Nobody should take him seriosly. He should just go back to the grave

PRESENTATION:
When you get to some places you got no choice, Ekpoma for example you sure have to use the okada, there’s no two ways about it.

Of course, okadas! But I'm talking of aboki okada riders who drive as if they are on a suicide mission.

trueking:
On what do you spend the most time on your phone? some people love games, for me I do not have a single game on my phone, I don't have the time, so ram isn't important to me, buy your phone to suit you.

Thanks. Camera {I travel a lot). Games too.

Battery, camera, Ram are important to me. Space of 16gb upward good. The Tecno looks enticing

PRESENTATION:
Just saw this on Twitter now, so sad.

Bike , we don’t have no choice but we have to be careful with em, especially aboki just japa, I also sustained injury from bike June last year , lucky me just leg scratch.

Why die young

No choice? We can start by boycotting aboki okada riders. I just arrived from Kano, I still can't believe how they drive there and still few accident occurrences. Na mad driving dey there, just like the aboki s in Lagos.

Please o, make una comment. I'm buying phone tomorrow.

My people, help me decide between

1. Gionee M5+
3/64gb, 13/5mp, 5000mah, amoled, about N48k

2. Tecno Pouvoir 3 (LB7).
13/13mp, 2/32gb, 5000mah, about N43k


And maybe

3. Gionee Full netcom GN5005 (king Kong 2)
3/16gb, 4000mah , about N37k

Please state the reasons for your preferred. Thank you.

The Freedom was a colonial prison known as Her Royal Majesty Prison, This prison serves host to many prominent Nigerians who fought against the colonial rule.
This prison was known to always set on fire by the then rebels till the British government decided to import bricks from England the bricks are still standing till date.

The freedom park faces three streets the most popular being broad street



1. Entrance from broadstreet
2. The main entrance from the second street
3. The wall showing the bricks
4. The Third entrance from another street

Lalasticlala come and See Freedom park

1st Street - Broad Street
2nd Street - Campbell Street
3rd - Ganiyu Smith Street, I think.


Where are you based? We should go on some mini tours some day. Just got back from the North. Would love to do Epe soonest.

He was becoming bigger than the governor. The split should have been at least 20 Emirates.
