don't mind them with their overhype of Obi. He did this, he did dat, yet Anambra remains poor.

Anambra poor? Poor in Per Capita or GDP or resources? What?

aribisala0:
Talk is not the same thing as understudy. Using the word China as a punctuation mark is not proof that you have understudied anything . If he is understudying let him inform us when he graduates. China is a central command nation with a very homogenous culture and population
Nigeria is a very diverse place still struggling with identity and multiple agitations
Population is just one issue it is not the only issue or the main one
Once again what did he achieve in office?

We are told that Anambra is the richest place bla bla bla

Did he succeed in Generating significant revenue base?

What exactly did he achieve that would make the people of Kwara or Kano vote for him
I am viscerally opposed to Tinubu but Tinubu's achievements are glaring , so also Fashola who was Obi's contemporary. When Tinubu came Lagos IGR was 500million a month and today it runs into billions thanks to Tinubu and then Fashola . That is one tangible thing Nigerians would vote for .
What success would Nigerians say . You did this in Anambra come and do for us
The reality is there is nothing to distinguish Obi from anyone in terms of achievement

Though I'm not from Anambra,neither I'm I from the South East. The first question I want to ask you is, did you ever visit Anambra before Peter Obi's tenure and after?

Hangmnk:
Young Igbo lady

She is Ogoni not Igbo

Maryjane001:
There were many other Nigerians that played for other countries.

The title said "5 Nigerians who won medals for other countries." I think it should be Nigerians, not 5 because there are more Nigerians who won medals.

lomprico:
did she win a medal?

Yes, silver in women's basketball

How can you include Foluke Akinradewo without Chiaka Ogbogu, another Nigerian who is in the same team with her?
And Ujah's full name is Chijindu Ujah not Chindu
Also, what of Monica Okoye who won Silver with the Japan women's basketball team?
What of Barthélémy Chinenyeze who won gold with the France Men's Volleyball Team?

Give us a comprehensive list abeg!

ServantOG:
Congratulations to Rivers United.

South-South for CAF cup

I'm a proud PH boy, but the fact is that neither Rivers United nor Akwa United can go far in CAF Champions League

LamidiCownu:
Mumu ...see as the ikweere pig cum bat dey shift goal post.
No be Yoruba again ?? E win champions league abi e no win
What does best 7 even mean Is that another name for a Ballon d' or winner ?

Where are the Ikwere equivalents of Hakim Olajuwon , Giannis, Israel Adesanya and Anthony Joshua
Do am if e easy


Ikweere bats should goan look for Kanuri or Shuwa Arab to drag with

I've given you a name no Yoruba player dead or alive, can rival with FINIDI GEORGE. Imagine a small ethnic group of just 2 million people producing someone more influential than the useless 60 million people inhabiting the Waste! No Yoruba footballer dead or alive can rival this man!

Our own Blessing Oduduru has won a medal, where is Afonja medal?

Franking:
Yoruba amaka. Southern Nigeria amaka.

Those other ones up there are only good at quota system and Buhari's nepotistic appointments. U won't see them making this useless contraption proud.

She is not Yoruba, she is Ijaw from Bayelsa

LamidiCownu:
You are a dullard..
No be only Finidi George.
Is that Ballon d' or or world Cup?
I gave you illustrious Yoruba sons who are masters and the best in their craft but you are here mentioning an obscure Finidi George

Google Tino Rasheed Anjorin of Chelsea you ikwerre pig .

Does Tino Anjorin play for Nigeria? I mean, mention one Yoruba player who played/is playing for Nigeria with a UEFA Champions League title! Just one!!!

And as a matter of fact, if you're not a baby, you wouldn't be comparing Finidi George who was once the best "7" in the world of football to one obscure Tino Anjorin who barely makes Chelsea's starting X1 sheet! Afonja na otu!

LamidiCownu:
We lead in other areas too
Education , sports, entertainment etc
Your tribe get anyone for Biden administration??
Where are the Ikwerre equivalents of Joshua , Adesanya or Giannis

Go and find your mate abeg...maybe Kanuri or Fulani

I wonder which Yoruba footballer can beat Finidi's George record! Oh, I forgot, no Afonja has won a UEFA Champions League title sef

LamidiCownu:
The best graduating students from the Nigerian law school for 2 consecutive years now are Yorubas from University of Ibadan.
And it has always been like that .

Yorubas must have stopped going to school for at least 500 years before any of you clowns would even dream of coming close..

Na so . So Law is now a parameter for general intelligence of an ethnic group?

Nisiw365:
My lunatic security is in pains
Guy no go commit suicide ooo

To let you know, Yoruba's will continue getting rich from oil in Niger delta whether you like it or not.

If you want to work in oil company, go to school and study relevant course instead of studying pipeline security network system(PSNS)

What relevant course do Yorubas study? Thuggery Strategy Studies?

Nisiw365:
E pain am. Its night already
I know you're on night shift today on pipeline work . so its time to resume

Says an Afonja youth that should be on Ojota highway doing what he knows how to do best

Nisiw365:
E pain am. some Yoruba's got rich from your oil while your fathers work as security guards
Your useless men are into kidnappings and armed robbery without going to school

How would you work in oil compamies if you don't go to school. How?
Your mothers and daughters prostitute their lives away, getting bleeped by otedolas from your oil
We can't blame the otedolas when you see education as a taboo and oil bunkery, kidnapping as the only way out instead of going to school

At least be greatful to Yoruba's who employ you go guard pipelines

Ogogoro drinking oloribu lunatic

Thank God you accepted the fact that you lots are the problem of Nigeria, not the Hausas or Fulani. We know the people that are eating our oil here in Niger Delta. We know the people that voted against our Niger Delta brother en masse for a Fulani man in 2015. We know the man who sent army men to perpetrate the Odi massacre. We know the people who killed Adaka Boro. We know our problem. You Yorubas should wait, when posterity+karma visits your foolish overrated race, even your imaginary ancestor, Oduduwa wouldn't survive it.

Nisiw365:
My maiguard is in sifia pains.
At least only those who are literate and smart engage on fraud
Tell me why ogogoro drinkers don't engage in fraud, why why. They can't because they aren't literate enough to get engaged in fraud

. So smart that they are easy preys. Everyday, they catch Afonja youths like paper in crime. Very overrated race!

Nisiw365:
Says chief security officer of pipeline Mai guard

At least thuggery is better than kidnapping, armed robbery, illiteracy, poverty ravaging ogogoro drinking ugly maiguards

See someone from brown roof republic where algae water is a delicacy referring to a Niger Deltan as poor! Wonders shall never end ! If not for Niger Delta oil, you lots would have been poorer than you are. Maybe you'd have been living under something much less than a brown roof and eating something worse than algae water.
Your leaders who don't support Oduduwa agitation know the fact, they know what your poverty infested region stands to loose, if they divide without Niger Delta in it. Little wonder, your coward leader, Igoho or whatever his name is included Warri and parts of Niger Delta in his map. Some of them want to even claim Itsekiri and Benin as Yoruba. Stupid Afonja youth

LamidiCownu:
See another clown.
There's no ethnic group known as Niger Delta . What's your own ethnicity in the so called Niger Delta ??

That said, there has been Lagos before Niger Delta .
We are not your mate at all. There's no basis for comparison.
No group in the amorphous Niger Delta can lace Yoruba shoes till the end of time. Abi any one don win Nobel laurel in your so called Niger Delta

Keep crying our oyel with your 3% and pipeline mai guard work

My small ethnic group which you termed "amorphous," is more productive than the entire Yoruba race. You Yorubas produce nothing, yet you eat more than anyone and still cry that it's the Fulanis that are causing the havoc! Such deception! As for brains, that one obscure lucky Yoruba won a nobel laureate does not make the Yoruba race a "brainy" race, Yorubas aren't half as smart as even the most petty Niger Deltan ethnicity. No be by who start to dey read book, na who sabi pass!

Nisiw365:
Why ranting like a lunatic. Are Yoruba's the ones telling you to be drinking ogogoro from morning till night at Mai guard pipeline work

Which Nigerian ethnic group drinks ogogoro more than the ethnic group where thuggery is a career

EdoFirstBorn:
Shut up

Yoruba impostor

You are not from the southsouth

Don't mind the mumu. Later, they will say that it's Fulanis that are the monikers trying to divide the South! Very deceptive people!

LamidiCownu:
Nonsense..
They dominated your oil works because they have the brains . Multi nationals don't care about your nonsense agenda.
You folks should continue doing pipeline mai guard

They have what brains? What brains do Yoruba have more than an average Niger Deltan? What? Just accept the fact that you lots are very deceptive and manipulative. If not for Niger Delta oil, will you have Otedola or Alakija to boast of? Will you have Lagos to boast of? Abeg, mind your business. Niger Delta no be Yoruba mate.

Ngorbungor:
Because we don't believe in that town called PH, when abandoned property comes to mind.

You Yorubas and Igbos are very foolish, mention anything you have that is important to Nigeria.

Emmannn101:
Why are you so full of hatred, boy?

What do you stand to gain whenever you try to bring people down?

If not for anything, wish her well if you want to succeed in life.

Be blessed

I don't think that's hatred. The guy is just erring the facts! Anyway, as a patriotic Nigerian, I'm still optimistic for them to break another record. One of our major problems, is that our BEST athletes don't represent us! For instance, today Adegoke suprisingly broke someone from another country's record at the Olympics which has been unbroken for some time, and guess the person's name, Femi Ogunode of Qatar, another Nigerian beast representing another country. In Volleyball, we didn't even qualify from Africa to play in the Olympics, for even the women category, yet one of the top 10 best female Volleyball players in the world, Paola Ogechi Egonu is a Nigerian, but represents Italy. Both of her parents are Nigerians, just like Femi Ogunode. In women basketball, the first and only Africans to win a WNBA MVP award, Nneka Ogwumike and Arike Ogunbowale, are both Nigerians. But while Ogwumike recently displayed interest to play for Nigeria, after US snubbed her this time around, Ogunbowale would likely be playing for the USA just like Nneka did before. In Boxing, one of the worlds' best ever, Anthony Joshua who is also a Nigerian represents the UK. In football, the same thing! From Saka to Alli to Eze to Tammy to Alaba to Okaka to the Nmecha's, all our bests eligible to represent us, representing other countries. In nitty-gritty, it's mostly rejects that represent us!

If only our government could set up a general enabling environment, this wouldn't be happening. It's unfortunate that this is the trend in not only Nigeria, but West and Central Africa as a whole! It's pathetic!

ppogba:
This will eventually be one of Nigeria' best. Expect medals from :
Tobi Amusan
Ese Brume
Odunayo Adekunroye
Blessing Oborodudu.

Quote me after the games.

Remove Odunayo and Blessing, I don't see them going far unless they up their game before their D-Day!

EraseTheDot:
cc: uchasa, you read this, don't you stupid.

people who could not come out of the group are the best, meanwhile, others are making it into semi finals without no boasting. Yo lowly jerks.

-erase the dot

Yeah, you mean our table tennis and badminton team

Nonsense!

EraseTheDot:
Anybody could win, IDGAF, Anybody could lose, IDGAF!. ,ibos called the Olympics team biafran team as soon as the lists was released. That's the point.
If they knew everyone/tribe had its category represented, they wouldn't be so foolish on the thread.
The thread is still right there, go check.
Stop quoting dude, you too dumb.

-erase the dot.

What Igbos called the thread is none of my business, my business is why someone so jobless like you is still quoting me!

EraseTheDot:
Your thinking is low man. Everyone is represented, Yoruba, Ibo, Urhobo/isoko, Edo, Ibibios etc But ibos made the mess of everything, calling a team biafran team, that's the point. No one else gave a tribal tag to any category except ibos. If you can't comprehend the point, get lost.


-erase the dot

In the Nigerian Basketball Team, there are 2 Yorubas, 1 Edo, 1 Hausa-Fulani, and 1 Efik-Ibibio, the rest are Igbos.
In the Nigerian Badminton Team, there are solely 3 Yorubas! All are Yorubas.
In the Nigerian Table Tennis Team, there are 3 Yorubas, and 1 Efik-Ibibio.

Now, Nigeria lost in all these sports shamefully without winning a match, yet you're crying on only one? You're a bloody tribalist, you need to be severed.

Your tribalism will not allow you to celebrate Nwokocha who qualified for the next round of athletics. All you will see are the bad ones! I could as well overlook Tobi Amusan's victory this morning and castigate Aruna Quadri or Ajoke who failed woefully, but I'm not foolish. I choose to see only good things, not bad things.

EraseTheDot:
You crazy fam. Dunno where you got your stories, even if true, they were selling legit, not stealing watches.
He never begged to train them and enrol them in college. They weren't thrown out to the streets sleeping in the cold, doing drugs & all, neither was his ibo wife giving men mouth gigs to survive. He saw them through till he died.. you suffering scum.


-erase the dot

You obviously don't know the Antetokunpos story, go and read and be informed before you start lying.

EraseTheDot:
How was he a poor man?.. A man whose worth $1.2m before his death.
Where did you get your cøck & bull stories? start talking stupid

-erase the dot

See idiot worth $1.2 million from selling watches on the street of Athens? You must be a joker! Basketball was what brought the Antetokunpos out of Oblivion, go and read their story.

Newton85:
Lol bro, your comments are getting mature and less angry these days? What happened bro? Lol.

I'm becoming more patriotic and less tribalistic, but Nigerians on Nairaland are making me become even more tribalistic.

EraseTheDot:
Daft, daft, daftus.
The table tennis team lost against their betters. They lost to those ranked above them. Table tennis is based on rankings not tribal selection as Dtigers team.
Almost everyone knows that both basketball teams stand no chance but we still pushed them on but ibos were so daft that the cheatbeating was taken to a ridiculous level forgetting that those guys are representing Nigeria but foolish ibos tagged them biafran team. So who takes the stick, Me or the foolish ibos?

-erase the dot

Ok, so D'Tigers lost to those below them? . When I said you don't have a TV set, I wasn't joking. I'm not sure you know what's happening in the world!

So, what also destroyed these Yoruba trio: Godwin Olofua, Anoluwapo Opeyori, and Dorcas Ajoke Adesokan who represented Nigeria in badminton at this same Olympics and crashed out after failing to win a game! Was it also Nwora's father, or another Igbo man?
