In a bid to simplify this, I will ask you a few questions.

1. Can you name anything you know of, either a trade, substances (eg drugs), events (e.g. abortion performance), etc, that the government trying to ban it allows the dealers to go free, but arrest/punish only the buyers?

So for example, if I sell harmful drugs, I am free to distribute, manufacture, and advertise, but the government only punishes my customers, not me?

2. If I want to stop alomo bitters in the Nigerian market, Which method is more effective between these two scenarios? Scenario A. Ban importation and make it punishable for dealers to sell such services, AS well as make it punishable for customers to use such products.

Or scenario B, Punish only customers and let the dealers of alomo trade and conduct their business freely?


If you can answer both questions above correctly, then my point will be very clear.

Back to the issue, sellers/service providers always have more power to stop the circulation of a business. There are so many examples I can mention but is it necessary?

When Buhari doesn't want Twitter, he banned it, AND punish those using VPN to access it. That is more effective than just punishing Twitter users. In most countries, prostitution is illegal. If your method is correct, then it should be the other way around, right?

How can you ignore all the societal structures that encourage prostitution and punish only men? it makes no sense frankly. There are hotels specifically to house harlot, then nightclubs, then roadsides where the harlot stands, then hookup sites such as coded runs, and so much more.

You will ignore all these things and just go arrest men? Really? like REALLY? if you want to cut a tree, you do it from the root. You don't cut the fruits and declare success.

My point still stands. If prostitution has to stop, then women have to stop it, not men. Men could be punished for engaging in such services as trafficking girls, building hotels, and so much more.

But it is women, not men, that control sexual access. Not putting the blame on hungry girls that uses prostitution instead of hard work is infantilizing girls.

If the government bans prostitution, which means closing a lot of hotels, banning the site-coded runs, arresting any prostitutes found on junctions, and fining nightclubs heavily, prostitution will reduce overnight.

But to ignore all these and just go for men only? It won't end. A quick example. If I am the only one selling Amala in a city, I have the power to prevent everyone in that city not to eat amala if I refuse to sell. By the same analogy, only women, not men, have the power to stop it.

ANd about my saying that ´men create the society and women integrate into it´, creating a society also means banning prostitution. If men ban prostitution and also punish men luring girls for such services, it will end overnight.

KDB has performed very well in UCL in the last 2 or 3 seasons.
At the national level , yiu can't blame him for Belgium's poor performance.

Numerouno94:
Nice analysis, U and Thierryjay suppose b football pundits.

Zwanzig:
pls btwn prime ozil and kdb who are u taking. Cc OJEEMAH numerouno94 ur opinions.

blueAgent:
Your argument on KDB is flawed ,dud he play under PEP in Germany league(wolfsburg,)when he won player of the year?

KDB is better than Modric.

OJEEMAH:
The bolded is the exact point I intend to establish

OJEEMAH:
We share same view about Zidane, Iniesta and Modric and I also agree with your take on Fabregas💯

Don’t get me wrong about KDB. He’s a fantastic player and I am not in any way trying to undermine his abilities and achievements. My point is about how Guardiola’s factor could have aided his performance especially in a time when top premier league clubs are struggling to cope with Pep’s philosophy.

Just see how Man City handled almighty Bayern like a mid table La liga team. Same Bayern that outplayed and tortured PSG. Bro, Pep’s Man City is a level above every team in Europe and it’s more about Pep’s factor than even the amount invested in building that team.

OJEEMAH:
You sabi football bro.

FIFA Best/Balon D’or might give Zidane a slight edge over Iniesta but that doesn’t negate the fact that he can sit on the same table with him and other tier 1 midfielders.

Before Messi, Zidane was my favorite but mehn, leave football for Iniesta. That guy was pure class and magical. Beyond description if you ask me. The only crime he committed was torturing opponents alongside Messi and Xavi.

Modric is a maestro. A genius in his own way but I don’t think any coach will play him ahead of Xavi or Iniesta if they were in the same team.

I still think Fabregas should comfortably sit with the guys in tier 2. The guy is/was a brilliant midfielder with a great vision and eyes for goals. Both in club and international football, Xavi‘s presence didn’t make his career any easy. In fact, Xavi presence disrupted his development to an extent. I wish he never joined Barcelona. As a youngster, he rejected Madrid twice. Just like Modric, a move to Madrid would have been much better for his career.

Guardiola’s Man City is too dominant for a player like KDB not to shine. Seriously, am not taking anything away from KDB but I still don’t think he would be this influential under Pellegrini and Mancini. Like Yaya Toure and David Silva, he would have competed against prime Man U and Chelsea. For the past 5years, Man City have proven to be class above every team.

AAA593:
Take modric to tier 2 immediately. Tier 1 midfielders should be for world cup winners and other related trophies at the interna tional level. Abeg remove modric. No be modric wey dey select match shine self

OJEEMAH:
I saw the comment but I didn’t bother to respond cos e clear say joker no go pick Modric ahead of Iniesta or Xavi

Numerouno94:
Jux leave Jokerman, na bad bele dey worry am. If not madness, who compares Modric to Iniesta "The tiki taka mastro, the GOAT of Midfield. Iniesta and Xavi re in a class of their own.

Jokerman:
Modric is already better than Xavi and Iniesta,before you bring KDB

Peacecore:
@bolded, and some people(I don't want to say, you are one of them) were accusing Messi that was all rounder of rubbing Lewandoski of Balon de_Or.
Now, I want to ask you a question; who is a better footballer between Messi and Ronaldo?

optimusprime2:
Brother that's the point... Man city needed a striker who has exceptional positioning and is Phenomenal at "Tap-in finishing", so that they can have more goals per game.

Their midfield already does all the artistry. Infact any striker who is good at "tap ins" will excel in this current Man city side, because you can bet either a KDB, Foden, Mahrez, Grealish, Bernado, or Gundogan pass will find you for a tap in.

My only vex with Pep is why he let Cancelo go so easily, because that is one of the most versatile players in this era of football.

Peacecore:
Since you saw him do it, it means he can do it any time. He's a no.9 for crying out loud and sticks to instructions from Pep. He was bought for a reason, not to defend, dribble but to score goal. His presence is why it's very difficult to park bus for City. His positioning and threat on defenders makes it easy for anyone to take the keeper and the defenders on surprise. Haaland is doing what he's meant to do perfectly. Pep is not someone you'll disobey his tactics without paying for it. Because of Haaland, City now play counter attack. Do you expect him to leave his role and come to drag the midfield with experts there? Messi's role is understandable, he's no.10 hence, he dribbles, assists and scores.

Abdulmumin412:
Messi and Ronaldo whom did you go for before I can understand your point.

OJEEMAH:
When it comes to penalties, everybody knows Ronaldo has more career penalties than Messi. The guy is trying to be half smart by presenting you with stats for only international football

Don’t fall for his lies. He wants to manipulate you into believing fake stats.

Messi scored 4 World Cup penalties just like Kane and Greizmann in 2018. Him and the other liar obembet said it’s 6.

Peacecore:
Please, can you define the work of a central striker? Can you still acknowledge the role he played against Arsenal last week?? Stop being...

pquaver:
Then u should actually be a messi lover

Numerouno94:
Factos!!!!👍

@Obembet pls get shame, u have changed the topic and content of this thread more than twice now jux because u wanna make frontpage wit ur cut and join lie lie story abt Messi. U re one shameless guy without integrity. Funny guy.
