Is it not very obvious for all to see that not only does Buhari not have a school certificate, he is to dense to engage in an intellectual discourse with a zoologist. He cannot even present himself for a debate. I am not surprised given the way Pat Utomi left him in the dust in 2011.

SportsRe: Wilfred Agbonivbare Is Dead - Former Eagles Goalkeeper (Pictured) by stagger: 8:31pm On Jan 27, 2015
pak:
First, let me acknowledge your good great knowledge of Nigerian soccer's recent past....however I need to set some info straight.
Agbonivbare took over the number 1 slot from Alloy Agu. Agu kept a clean slate in the first 3 games against minnows South Africa (then) and Benin. Rufai was only called in for the last formality match of round 1 because Nigeria had already qualified and westerhoof decided to field am experimental side of home based players and castaways.
Westerhoof would later employ a goalkeeper trainer who restored Rufai to the number 1 position and relegated Agbonivbare to number 3 behind Agu. Ike Shorunmi was fourth, hence did not make the team.
Two, Agbonivbare was indeed culpable in at least one of the goals against Cote d'voire in abidjan.
It was Okocha's first game for the SE and Nigeria had gone ahead via a Yekini thunderbolt from an unstoppable run from the right side of the ivorian box. Nigeria missed a chance to seal the game when Siasia selfishly decided to go for glory rather than pass to Yekini, he would lose his place in the SE for that error.
( How many ppl realise he did the same thing vs Argentina at Usa 94, he should have returned the 1-2 to Yekini but tried the difficult lob direct to goal, this time around he was lucky and I admit it was a beautiful goal)
Anyway. Cote d'voire came back to the game via a penalty by Ben Badi - the irrepressible Abdulaye Traore and a smashing effort by the local bomber Ahmed Quattara.
Agbonivbare parried a cross/shot right back into the six yard box of the eagles ( a no no) and Quattara wasted no time in slotting in.
Memories that will never fade from my mind.
All in all Wilfred Agbonivbare was a great short stopper. May he Rest in Peace.
You forgot to mention that Amuneke hit the crossbar in that game as well. Siasia famously claimed he did not see Yekini and to be fair to him, Yekini was slightly behind him on the left and goalkeeper Losseni Konate had advanced very quickly off his line towards Siasia on seeing the danger, thus cutting off the angles very quickly. Agbonivbare made so many saves in that game as the Super Eagles simply sat back and absorbed all the pressure. Recall that they left Lagos on the morning of the game to Abidjan to avoid being bewitched by the Ivoriens. No way the 2nd goal was his fault as the pressure on the SE was simply too much.
SportsRe: Wilfred Agbonivbare Is Dead - Former Eagles Goalkeeper (Pictured) by stagger: 5:31pm On Jan 27, 2015
USA 94.

1st round: Nigeria did not concede a single goal to South Africa or Congo home and away.

Wilfred came in during round 2 to replace Peter Rufai on the strength of his wonderful performances in Spain. He conceded 2 goals to CIV away, one to Algeria in Lagos and Algiers, and one to Cote D'Ivoire in Lagos. These were all solid goals which cannot be termed silly goals.

So tell me: where did the goals come from? Everyone knows Rayo Vallecano are perennial relegation candidates in Spain. Has nothing to do with their keepers.

Which of these "qualifying matches" did you watch? Cable TV entered Nigeria in 1992/93 and Dstv entered in 1995/96. So unless you had a satellite dish, I am not sure how many of us here watched those matches. Ultima, ABG and a few other cable tv stations did not show La Liga in those days.

When did you start watching football? Are you talking of the Wilfred Agbonivbare who played with Stephen Keshi, Henry Nwosu and Humphrey Edobor in New Nigerian Bank, winning the Wafu cup several times, or playing with Abiola Babes with Dominic Iorfa, Toyin Ayinla, Yisa Shofoluwe et al?

When did he conceed the goals? Did you watch the world cup qualifier between Naija and Cote D'Ivoire when we beat them 4-1 in Lagos after he pulled off more than 5 saves in the first 10 minutes of that match and close to 20 saves overall?

Or the 1-1 draw we played with Algeria that put us through to our first world cup?

Wilfred was one of Nigeria's best goalkeepers. Babies like you who never watched a game that NNB played at Ogbe stadium in Benin or National Stadium in Surulere will come here to talk what they don't know.

Jimi Agbaje was in Isolo last week and I got the report that he visited a popular Buka (local restaurant) and bought food for everybody he met there.

Is this part of 'stomach infrastructure'? I hear one of those he bought food for has been waxing lyrical about Jimi Agbaje and the PDP.
Once he enters Alausa, he will never remember that there is anything like such a buka in Isolo.

OP,

I am a Jonathan supporter, but I am not one given to just tking sides on an issue bsed on sentiments. My question to you is this: is the performance of a forensic document examination conducted on the actual physical document or on an internet copy? You do know that any forensic stuff is done bearing in mind that such cases can eventually end up in court. Will a forensic document examination on any other copy apart from the physical document be admissible in court?

Just imagine the pastors.. Planning to use the house of God as a political campaign ground.... Is there no sanity this is a huge slap I'm just hoping that bishop Oyedepo isn't really into this cause i respect him a whole lot although m not an lfc member... Although God knows best not the pastors
Which church is being used as political campaign ground if not that of Father Mbaka who is now a Buhari man (with video evidence to that effect)? Now you decide to base your opinion on a concocted lie by sahara reporters with no evidence. Bishop Oyedepo is not a political charlatan who will decide for people who they should vote for. Even on Sunday when we prayed for safety and peace of the country using our PVCs as a point of contact, never was there a mention of who we should vote for.

Base your opinion on verifiable facts!

How can i have access to government land for farming in Anambra state?

I heard that one can get land from river basin authority nation wide, but i don't know if
there is anything like that in anambra state..
I think the approach is to look for the office of the Anambra-Imo river basin authority. I think their office is in Owerri. I am not very sure. The river basins were supposed to be reclassified via a bill from the National Assembly but I do not know if this has been done.

5 years compounding? don't mind those preachers. d highest i can do is 3 months first if less than 1000$ and follow by monthly withdrawal.
You can do 5 years compounding, but certainly not on a retail broker's platform. This is best done with banks like JP Morgan Chase. DOn't forget that some of these banks also lost money on that trade, but they are very well capitalized.

Imagine FXCM being nearly rendered insolvent by a mere $225m. How can such a company every hope to pay a compounded sum of money over 5 years if such money is equivalent to their capital base?


I love this event. It has acted as a real stress test for brokers.

Biafrans started the war with no weapons. Most of what they used were seizures from the federal army (especially at the battle of Abagana) and home made constructions.

Soldiers should use their initiative. They can"t fight BH but if it is to beat civilians, they are at their best.

BusinessRe: Forex Trading - Season 15 by stagger: 10:38pm On Jan 16, 2015
My final take is that many brokers claiming to be unaffected are hiding the true state of their accounts. It is like trying to prevent a run on a bank when a rumor of collapse hits the banking sector. Many of these brokers claiming to be sound, solvent or materially unaffected, will probably start re-balancing accounts as from next week.

I will not be surprised if restrictions on withdrawals, readjustment of client's accounts (which Saxo Bank has announced) and other measures become the order of the day. Now the boys will be separated from the men.

I also need to say that Dukascopy had foreseen this scenario last year and implemented a leverage of 10:1 for CHF positions in October 2014. So any losses sustained by excess slippage will be borne by traders and not the broker. FXCM and co that got burnt are those who allow leverage of up to 500:1.

Meanwhile, FXCM has been given $300m by Leucedia to continue operations. A timely bailout has saved the company.

FOR THE NEWBIES:

What a week. I hope you were able to wade, through the shark infested waters we call forex. I was amazed at some of the comments, on FTA, and forex factory as well, concerning this Swiss thingy. I was thoroughly insulted on forex factory. My only offence was posing a very simple question; how in Gods name would the change in the Swiss financial policy have affected you if you had used a stop loss and applied proper, responsible money management? This is assuming your broker did not go belly up. A lot of people got butt hurt because i asked this question. I was in awe of the number of traders lamenting over their losses. Then i thought to myself, i was in a usdchf trade. How come i am not shaken? why? Because i used a stop loss. I lost exactly 80 pips which accounted for 3 percent of my account. No sweat. See why i have been harping on money management? One had the nerve to say SL are for losers. I closed the page at that point. Anyway, I never listen to news. I know from history that chf pairs can be very volatile at times, so when it happened i thought it was business as usual. As new traders, stay away from news. It has nothing to do with your success as a trader. Consistency, discipline and money management is what makes you successful in this game. When you dwell on news, is same as analyzing and predicting price. It assuredly will not end well. I just wanted to throw this out there. For all those that i have yet to reply their mails, i will this weekend. Good luck.
You are lucky your stop was triggered. Usually in these situations, it is like the bottom of a bucket falling out, and with massive selling, the stops do not hold. Do you know how a stop loss works? A stop loss is triggered when the broker is able to match your order to sell as a particular price to another trader who wants to buy at that same price. It happens in milliseconds.

If there is side volatility as occurred yesterday, there are usually no buyers for the pairs at the stop loss level and the trade/account will keep on going negative until trading is frozen altogether. Many traders accounts on FXCM and Alpari are now in the negative, meaning that they owe the broker. Don't forget that in forex, brokers are the ones that will absorb these losses because it is their share of the capital (the leverage) that is at risk here.

Going forward, I believe we will see some major changes to the leverage rules, the way it has occurred in the US (where maximum leverage allowed is 50:1) and Canada (where leverage is pegged at a maximum at 18:1). This means that very soon, anyone without as much as $100,000 raw cash will be unable to trade forex. This is the only way brokers will protect themselves.

So traders beware! Understand the market and how it works and don't come here boasting about your stop loss setting prowess. God simply saved you.
