BusinessRe: Paypal In Nigeria: A Blessing Or Curse To Internet Marketers by texaco1: 9:44pm On Jul 07, 2014
dottywotty: You really think Paypal will allow nigerians to receive payments?
What can you say about India with over 1 billion in population yet paypal for some years is yet to enabled them to receive from other country paypal account. They can only receive from indian account.
Perhaps paypal may eventually allow nigerians but i bet it will take a very long time or they may even abort the plan due to how some Nigerians will abuse this current one.
you see ,the kind of money paypal will make in nigeria they can't make it anywhere else in africa , the only thing is each market or should I say each countru. Has its own peculiar nature, western union had to develop a method of transaction for the nigerian market which is ttotally different from that which they use in togo or ghana . As for the indian market,whether through bank or card they still receive paypal. I believe paypal are devising a way of introducing receive now option remember they just started receiving option too for kenya not long ago but with a method and that is only one bank was allowed to receive. Then chy you have to look at the financial law of each country ,each country has its own financial regulations . But believe me paypal is in nigeria to make money and they would exploit that market to the fullest
BusinessRe: Paypal In Nigeria: A Blessing Or Curse To Internet Marketers by texaco1: 8:40pm On Jul 07, 2014
First of all it is a matter of time before they will start allowing nigerians rto receive ,this is the same way they started in many countries. They. Are still perfecting their system here and looking to see how Nigerians accept them,if the figures are encouraging then why won't they allow receive it. Imagine 1million nigerians having paypal account ,definitely like 50k will be receiving. Cash that means more comission for them . We are always in a rush but the white man doesn't rush they always like to do their findings very well. For internet marketers , u will have to be flexible and adapt to the new change,I think an avenue of change is helping ppl create online stores . There will definitely be an increase of demand for this when the paypal receiving option is enabled . cing!

Mikel don hear am!
thank god ,now u are beginning to see what we have been talking about.most of the time u can predict where he will pass the ball to,either left or right then back never forward .

princefunmi: I get your time today

Tell me who are the players that did better than him? Since you cant do the research I have helped you. Look am tell me say na Mikel bad pass for this world cup. Apart from Mashcherano, no other holding midfielder has outperformed Mikel in terms of statistics. You dis Mancurian Barbeque. If you dont like what he did then grab you cleats and prove that you can do better than he did.

Oya, misyearn again make I hear. Otondo. Tufuele like you tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue
wait ,relax and take a bottle of cold beer. All those players u are mentioning aren't our business. We are talking about the super eagles , read all my post I didn't compare mikel with any other player apart from those in our team. Whether we hate mikel or not that doesn't stop his millions, but he needs tto step up. We don't wantt him sitting on the bench ,his fans there in nigeria and all over tthe worls wants to see him dictating the pace of games both for our national team and his club.all these criticisms Is all for his own good. It won't be nice for mou to loan him out to a club like west ham or west brom
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 4:15pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: No doubt, Jay Jay Okocha had the talent. The time at Turkey affected his game but a Man has to make money when he has the chance. I think you have a point. In the case of Mikel maturing his game and taking it to the next level.

I feel Mikel actually tried stepping out of his zone in the World cup and that is why he looked weak. It is still a growing team. Let us five them time.
we disagree to agree. Mikel is a good talented and skillful player but to become a great player one has to improve on tthese qualities.age is still on his side and he can still make his mark in the football world . He has the talent to become better than yaya toure and even okocha but he must improve his game to achieve that
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 4:05pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: Okocha was one of the greatest footballers to ever touch the field. O respect him with all my heart but his game was not channeled well to help his team mates flourish.

Look at someone like Michael LA UDR up, he can virtually be invisible on the field but his work makes the other players flourish.

Look at the game we lost 3-0 to Brazil at Abuja. Mario Zagallo, coach of Brazil walked to Okocha and gave him a two handed shake. He was one of the best things Zagallo ever saw. But, we lost 3-0.

I believe Okocha not playing long under a great coach when he was at Turkey affected his decision making.

Later in his career, Okocha had one of the best decision making game but by then his career with the Super Eagles was over. You can notice it in his season at Hull City Fc.
now u are ttalking like the great analyst I know. Okocha became a tteam player late that is sure ,when he played at usa 94 he was a young player but by the ttime he got to bolton he had matured and was always making decisive passes and shots but age had crept in by then . By the time we went to korea japan he had become a matured play maker u are right he matured late into his career .mikel shouldn't let his own be like that.

nonjebose: And he was the best player of match. I was in Ibadan then
yes ,I think he was the one that laid the pass for our goal. He was a bundle of talent but pride and indiscipline finished his career
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 3:54pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: The stats is good. One of the ball winning midfielder I respect in this world cup I respect is Vidal. Ball recovered is 10 times.

So Vidal is 10, how can Mikel's 17 be so bad?
http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/players/player=267543/statistics.html
bros ,I am not concerned aboutt vidal,if vidal like he can bring a mat and sleep on the pitch,if his team likes it no problem,but the issue here is mikel and the super eagles ,and what everyone is saying is that he should and could have done better. To whom much is given much is expected. Ppl relied on him and looked up to him . But instead it was players like osaze and musa that were carrying the team .no one hates him and if he improves it is for his own good and career. All this criticisms is all to make him a better player
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 3:47pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: Many are carried away with ball juggling skills than impact.

Okocha was a wonderful sight to behold when on the ball but strikers suffered a drought of goals in the National team when Okocha played including Amokachi, Yekini later when Okocha became a regular, Martins, Ogbeche, Agali. Okocha always tried to score, neglecting his role as a creative midfielders.
bros I always gbadun ur football analysis but todays own no good . How can u say such things like this about jayjay?did u follow ghana nigeria nations cup?what about france98? And world cup 2002? Everyone knew that okocha always makes the difference,as for mikel he has lost it,it is better he converts to a defender but u can't even compare okocha to mikel ,in factt it is a sin and abomination

princefunmi: Before you start running your smelly mouth check this out. It happens to be from the same site you picked your stats from. It shows you are in a hurry to shoot this Mikel down. This goes for all Nairalanders that prefer to think with their fingers and mouths instead.

http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/players/player=234463/index.html
thank you for this stat, and mind u if u are a lawyer all ur clientts will get jailed and found guilty because u don't reason with fact. The stats u posted can u see how poor it is?from the stat u posted he recovered the ball back 17 ttimes in 4 matches and ur brain tells uu that is befitting enough for a player like mikel. While others did better than that.that is about 4 ball recovery per match , he also completed less than 50% of his crosses and to u that is perfect. Well if according to ur own reasoning thatt is good enough for ur own standard ,nigerians want more from her players and if mikel can't give them ,no problem let him step aside .
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 3:23pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: It takes effort and energy to put in the work. Mikel is being criticised by many for being lazy and slow. His style might be slow but he puts in the work and does not deserve to be crucified.

It is unfair from Nigerians.
which means that there is no stat to prove that he was very useful at the world cup . I am not criticising him , just that I want u to know he wasn't tthe most hardworking ,and whatever the case he could have done better . A player of his calibre,status is supposed to live up to at least 50% positive expectation of ppl.
SportsRe: Mikel Does Not Deserve Nigeria No. 10 Jersey - Etim Esin by texaco1: 3:13pm On Jul 07, 2014
thegoodjoehunt: To cover the most distance shows he was the most hard working. A sprinter running very fast and covers a hundred meters has not done as much work as a marathon runner that covers three thousand meters.

Fifa stats show Mikel covered more distance than most super Eagles players including great hard working mid fielders like Vidal.

Mikel deserves a thank you, not abuses and insults.
http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/statistics/players/distance.html
but this stat doesn't show tthat he did anything useful with all the running. We once had a player called dominic irofa and he was nick name all speed and no sense because he was always runing all over the field and yet contributing nothing tangible. The mere fact that he was running around doesn't prove that all those running was useful.give me a statics of the aerial balls he won,how many passes did he complete ,how many shots did he take ,what about his tackles ,how many did he win . Thatt is how u know who is useful on the pitch or not

Its not what they told us.its what we know.if you come to camp and go to the estate areas,you will witness some.i am sure the guys dad is one of the pastors coz he stays on camp.the redeem university is only for rich people.having collected tithes from average members to build the university.also most of the pastors children in redeem university barely pay tuition.last year,one of the board directors son age 26 or so very popular man killed his wife in the same redeem camp but this was covered coz of press alert,although the guy is still in elewe eran, according to investigations,the guy was having close to 70million in his account ,the money his dad got from projects he got in redeem.redeem keep building lots of houses,big auditorium,and other project giving only the redeem pastors opportunity to take contracts and all became millionaires ,some are even billionaires but you won't know coz they pretend a lot.that's why their children misbehave,they give their children big cars to drive at early age. The funniest thing is these pastors are full time pastors.so it is justifed where the money all came from. Tithes payers,offering, donations,gifts ,grants and many more.
these allegations are serious , but there is nothing adeboye can do about it .

PoliticsRe: The Proposed 18 New States And Their Capital by texaco1: 3:43pm On Jul 06, 2014
pro01: I hope this silly idea never sees the light of day. The idea of creating more states is repugnant, considering that with each new state comes a whole new eco-system of government structures, divisions, positions, and bureaucracies. More local governments, more governors, commissioners, special advisers, special assistants, house of assemblies, state high courts and magistrate courts, etc etc etc. With the already overbloated cost of governance in Nigeria, can we afford such nonsense?

In any case, many of the existing states in Nigeria are not viable entities, and they depend solely on Abuja for monthly allocations. Of what use, then, is it to create additional parasitic and unproductive entities to further deplete the country's meagre resoirces?

Absolute rubbish. I hope common sense prevails in the end.
