There are countries who have left CFA, have they been invaded? There are non French colonies who voluntarily opted to be part of CFA

raumdeuter:
Is France forcing them to stay in CFA? Some countries have left and some CHOSE to stay

......hence Putin and Xinjiang ain't Presidents of their respective Countries?!

Roland17:
If that is what you got then that’s you. All we are saying is, HOLD YOUR CRIMINAL LEADERS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE ROT AFRICA IS ENDURING.

Stop blaming the West at your convenience for the mess in Africa.

FOR ONCE! Let us hold ourselves and own our failures as a continent. Being Pan African doesn’t translate into blaming the West for every little thing!
If anything, it means taking ownership of your failures and finding ways to address them locally.

.....Benjamin Netanyahu was first elected prime minister of Israel in 1996 and left the Office in 1999 following his defeat to Ehud Barak.

He returned again as prime minister in 2009 and lost the office to oppositions in 2021 after 5 terms [12yrs] in Office.

Guess what? He is back in power again from 2022 till God knows when. Democracy right?!

Angela Merkel was Germany Chancellor from 2005 to 2021..... how many years bro? Ain't they practicing Democracy in Germany?!

Roland17:
You both think me and Ibime, who deserves a serious shout I should add did not prepare for this ridiculous narrative? You cats think we or I should say I take positions without thoroughly researching?

If you read every bit of what Ibime has documented thus far, I hope you can trash that rubbish narrative. I had my own rebuttal but Ibime has done more than enough for anyone to understand the truth.

GloriousGbola:
the irony is that for all the talk, most of you are self colonized - what is this entire board about if not EURPOEAN football

a sport created by the brutal colonisers?

all these pan africanists standing up to the west - are they even supporting local african leagues?

Ibime:
The YOU is Mali who have kicked out France over 2 years ago and still continuing to use their CFA which is keeping them in bondage.

Stop talking about Thomas Sankara and other ancient of days. Mali current Government for the last 2 years have no dealings with France and are not controlled from France. They should exit CFA if it sure them say CFA na wickedness.

BFaso is now one year free of France influence. I don't see their central bank preparing to go it solo with their own currency

Niger expel France ambassador but won't dare think about expelling their CFA.

Everybody hate France but love their CFA. Shey na jazz CFA dey use?

Jodera:
And I said that first bolded is a lie.

How would you say Saka was singlehandedly impacting games for arsenal.

Was it not still here that guys claimed that it was because of Saliba's injury that we started faltering?

Saka was very very important and impactful for Arsenal last season, Same way Odegaard was important and impactful, same way Saliba was important and impactful.
And these are our top three players

No dey use because of sentiments claim that Saka was singlehandedly impacting arsenal's game.

And as for the 2nd bolded?
What is there to prove that it's not clear for everyone to see.

But I'll just prove it to you to just clear your doubt

1. He won all the Awards for Man City above all the players you felt impacted more than him(Best player, young best player) in constrast, Saka didn't even win Arsenal's best player sef cos that went to Odegaard.

2.. He was Man City highest goalscorer with 36 goals. The 2nd person following him is Foden with 11goals. Give Foden three times that goals and he'll still be short of Haaland but Yeah Haaland wasn't that impactful to Man City.
And oh, lest I forget, Saka is not even arsenal's highest goalscorer.

3. Let's go to assist too. Haaland is top 3 highest assist maker in Man City as a striker (behind Debruyne and Mahrez). To put it more clearly, Mahrez was ahead of Haaland with JUST 2 assists (10 to 8 respectively). But yeah he wasn't impactful to their cause. The Bernardo, Foden, Gundogan and all that were impactful didn't top less-impactful Haaland in any metric and much more this metric oo
For Arsenal it was Saka.


4. The Oga pata pata of them all is that Haaland used all these Metric to win League which Saka unfortunately didn't. Yet you felt it was Bernardo 9g/a, Gundogan 12g/a that was more Impactful than someone's 48g/a. Add both of their g/a together and multiply it by two and it won't still reach Haaland's g/a.



But yeah Spy is Objective while Jod.era is Subjective.

I didn't know that being objective is the new sentiment

Ibime:
It's simple. BFaso, Mali and co should float their own currency and escape the French Colonial tax. Mali left in 1962 and begged to return in 1984. Nobody is holding them. Lies can travel round the world but facts are stubborn.

Blame France, blame France, yet you don't want to leave CFA and go your own way because you know how CFA is subsidising you.

Griffon:
CFA Franc was at some point perceived to be a tool for the French neocolonial subjugation over 8 of her West African and 6 Central African colonies.

14 of these colonies who used CFA Francs were required to store 50% of their currency reserves with the Banque de France, and the currencies were attached to the euro.

Depending on the narrative you choose to believe, the French explained that this arrangement was aimed at shielding those colonies that issued their own currencies from the horrible effects of price inflation. To these colonies, however, it was believed to be a “neocolonial tax”, a brake on economic growth and a spit on their sovereignties.

No be today this thing play out.

Ibime:
Dem go dey alright las las

Do anything wrong in Africa, and once you blame the West you go dey alright

MC Oluomo beat Mama Chinedu, blame West for not intervening

Gbagbo lose war and refuse to leave, causing a civil war, blame West for intervening

Blame West for taking 8 years to arrest Dieziani, blame same West for not arresting other politicians you provided no evidence against

West is looking like Akon right now

raumdeuter:
Was that not because Gbagbo lost an election and refused to leave? So the West is also to blame for removing a man who lost an election and refused to leave

Abi what is your own recollection? Who won the eleciton between Gbagbo and Quatarra and what led to Gbagbos ouster

raumdeuter:
And if the election in Cameroun is not free and fair what is the business of the West? Will they still be the ones to conduct elections for you

Jodera:
Those two are big lies.

Abeg, Saka na our boy, no just do this.

We're all happy that Saka won the Ypoty but abeg don't make it seem as if he truly deserved it over Haaland.

If it was the season Foden won it(last two seasons), your point would have been valid cos Saka was way more impactful over Foden.

But last season, Lai lai, Haaland was certainly the better player over the two and it's not even close

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
niger have huge uranium deposit yet they don't have constant electricity...

The West will rather steal it, use it to power her industries, produce goods, sell the same goods @ a very high price 2 Africa. We saw the contents of the marshal Plan & how the US invested heavenly in order 2 develop Germany after the war. Why did US invest such amount in Europe & Asia after d war? The JAPs & Germans lost the war, they ought 2 pay repatriation but dey turn 2 beautiful bride!

There is deliberate policy 2 keep Africa underdeveloped, dey no rate us...just like A40 will say there a lot of house niggas who are willing 2 do their bidding. It makes it easier 4 dem.

raumdeuter:
I no fit shit na west, We blame west for removing Gadaffi yet blame west for not removing Paul Biya. The same Camerounians will go to the polls and vote Biya then blame the west for it

When you vote someone be it Bongo Biya Mugabe do you expect the west to come and help you remove him so that you can put another round of blames on them

Roland17:
When will African countries, especially the educated minds start holding their leaders primarily accountable for the state of the continent, instead of the West?

iamoyindamola:
They play

iamoyindamola:
You said saka was a better individual player than haaland and he won it because city were epl winner
Well that's a big fat fvcking lie
Haaland smashed goal scoring record last season
He was far better individually than any of our players
He as been consistent since his salzburg days
Saka is a winner no one even arsenal fans expect to win it yesterday that's because of haaland extra ordinary season
Don't create unnecessary avenue for saka dragging abeg

mostob:
Tavarez to Forest



Balogun to Monaco



Cedric



Sambi



Holding



Pepe?


Time is going

mostob:
I still don't know why a sane football fan would disagree with that Saka award. Well, make Dem go collect am from Saka's hand. I think Foden won the last one (not sure) despite not being good as Saka.


I'm not really surprised at Ode and Saliba's inclusion. Na Ramsdale own shock me pass. TBH, I was not expecting him to be considered ahead of the two Brazilians.

iamoyindamola:
Who did haaland depend on in Dortmund or FIFA u20 when he scored 7goals in a match or been the youngest player to score 10 UCL goals
This is common sense

Spy360:
Saka is a better talented player than Haaland. Haaland won it because City won the PL. It's a kind of divided award between him and Saka.

Spy360:
Haaland is a good player and a brilliant goal scorer no doubt. But he depends on the likes KDB and Silva to shine. Saka does not depend on anyone, he impacts the game by himself.

There was a split decision that made both of them share the awards. It takes open eye and common sense to know.

iamoyindamola:
You just wake they say nonsense again
Let's remove city and compare haaland in Dortmund with any of saka best season
Between they are not playing same position, you just like complicating issues

Jodera:
Nobody go drag daddy award with daddy na
It was inevitable for Haaland. I was even surprised Our boy won Young PFA sef seeing that Haaland was also named in the category.


Meanwhile, our Men looking dapper!!

Saka for just dey middle with him "no bow tie" suit

ObaIgwe1:
Before the coming Havertz, we have 3 players that can dominantly play the AM role (Odegaard, Viera and ESR)

True ESR has a re-occurring knee injury and he was advised to go for a surgery to fix the problem permanently, which he did. We all know what he can do when fit and we also know he would be fit for this season. And what did Arteta do? He bought Havertz another AM.

Now we have 4 players battling for 1 or 2 positions depending on the game plan. How will that help their game time?

If anything, Havertz coming has only limited the time that will be available for ESR.

BTW, ESR injury played little role to our inability to win the league last season. If there is a department we were short, definitely not an AM. And since recovery ESR has proved to us that he has not declined with his performance at the last youth tournament.

So far we are yet to be convinced we really needed Havertz, even the fragile Viera has given us something in the few mins he played compared to Havertz while we still have a fit ESR that have not seen a minute since the start of the season and only played for 3mins during the community shield. So you think the coming of Havertz is not / will not affect ESR gametime?

iamoyindamola:
What are you saying na
Is he having playing time

iamoyindamola:
Because he's not playing
Is harvetz better than him?

iamoyindamola:
He won't win spoon with this madness
And fans will turn on him if he sell another hale end academy without justifying why
