Messi scored 34 hat-tricks in La Liga after playing there for 17 years. it took the GOATnaldo just 7 years to smashed 34 hattrick

I'm still waiting for someone to come argue it. Messi is the best but ran from playing in the best league (EPL). Ronaldo played there twice, in the early days and in his prime

I'm not even a tribalist here oga.... Aregbesola served in lagos but we all know he is from osun, same with James faleke that's from ekinrin adde in kogi west.... But remi tinubu that everyone knows her family in ogun state is suddenly itsekhiri.... Make una dey cut dis thing small small na

Better get knowledge than argue blindly. Remi is from Delta State. She's an Itsekiri woman. Same tribe with Orise-Femi, Florence Omagbemi, Omawomi, RMD and the likes

Delta State isn't all about the Urhobos na. There are other powerful and strong ethnic groups and tribe too. The Isokos, the iteskiris, Ijaws, The Ikas, Nkwanis, the Aniomas, etc

Festus Keyamo is an Urhobo man from Ughelli. So, given her another ministerial position from same ethnic group or tribe is political suicide and the aftermath is better imagined than real. For me sef, she would've been given than Festus Keyamo who has no influence in Delta politics.

This JAJ guy na real fossil. I started listening to him in the late 90//early 00s on Rhythm FMs Top 7 Jamz at 7!

In addition to all you mentioned other notable radio influencers for me over the years

Dr. Flavour - A DJ on Eko FM who cranked out the badest HipHop hits in the early 2000s

Bimbo Stalwart Obiesan on because Ibadan also cranked out HipHop hits on Saturday nights in the early 2000s

There was a Lanre Kool on Ondo State Radio Corporation.

Biodun “Double B “ Current Affairs host on OGBC on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. One of the programms was called Total Mood Turnover. Never missed an episode. I wonder what he will make of our affairs today.

and of recent Sandra Ezekwesili of Nigeria Info’s “Hard Facts”

That said Dan Foster was the GOAT!

That lady Sandra Ezekwesili is now the real gee. Sadly she's leaving the station. Also Joyce Onyema

I'm presently at Ikoyi. For like 2yrs now, I've been here, though,. working here.

Where was this shared? And how many people truly needs this in Ikoyi? Ikoyi is known for the wealthy and super rich people

Poor people living in Ikoyi can't be explained, honestly

Oduok:
Sending kids to holiday lessons makes no sense.

Most of you will make your kids go to school till they become useless. You took them to school at age 3 and abandon them there. During long vacation you still send them to school. To do what?

Can't you spend time to bond with your kids? What exactly are they going to achieve in school during vacation? Vacation lesson only favour school owners, not you. Allow kids rest for God's sake.

If you should engage kids during long vacation then teach them skills. Enrol your kids in centres that they can learn practical computer usage, coding, programming, painting and decoration, catering, musical instruments. Let them learn martial art, how to shot guns, how to wrestle. Teach them something beyond pure academics.

If a school should organize long vacation class then it should gear towards extra curricula activities - debate, modelling, music concert, science fair, mini project. How would you call kids back to school during holiday to learn Math, English, Chemistry, Social studies, accounting, by same teachers that taught them during school period. What is the difference? If these teachers knew what to teach why didn't they do it during normal school session.

Education is beyond memorizing facts. Give your kids opportunity to develop and be better prepare for life.

Agreed!

NBTE is not serious. Why India? I have tried it out... Fees is 1,000 dollars. That is some 800k. Why can't Nigerian universities run this.

Well, i am making inquiries to know which 9ja university that does this conversion

Many Nigerian university are into top-up but, it's mostly 2yrs

RichTyler:
Ronaldo transfered to Madrid in 2009 and he left 2018. During his stay in Madrid he won LA liga just twice
The difference is small,ronaldo won five while messi won four but messi bullied him in other area.
The biggest trophy in football is world cup. GOATS are rated based on their achievements in the world cup,sadly ronaldo has no world cup legacy. He hasn't even played in a final.
I feel for Ronaldo bcus small mbappe will be rated higher than him after their careers

In 2010, Messi and Argentina were knockout of the World Cup shamefully, he never won the Champions League that season, but won FIFA BEST PLAYER OF THE YEAR. How about that? We're talking about personal achievements, you're talking trophies

Going by what you stated using trophies, Dani Alves is better and greater than Messi

RichTyler:
It is a fact that ronaldo was bullied by messi. That is the reason why ronaldo and his sister hates messi so much. What were his achievement in Spain?
Who won more when they encountered each other,who scored more?
Messi won player of the season seven times against ronaldo winning two,.messi won golden boot 6times against ronaldo three. Messi won LA liga seven times ,ronaldo won two. The only trophy ronaldo has more than messi is the cl with just one difference

Please, how many seasons did Ronaldo placed in Laliga versus the seasons Messi played in the league?

After answering the first question, we move to the next, the highest trophy in Europe is the Champions League and Ronaldo topped it, won more Champions League than the Messi you're talking about

RichTyler:
You don't have to use insult madam,I agree Ronaldo lost his kid and that could have affected his game.
But his time in juventus was a disaster. He promised them cl and his fans swore that he can win it playing with logs of wood. But we saw the result,they were knocked out by teenage boys undergoing puberty two times in a role. The only thing you can brag about his time there is goals.
What about his time in Spain,at least both of them had the chance to lock horns and prove who is the best but messi bullied him and he ran away to Italy and was asking for rematch and till today he still wants rematch with messi in Saudi but messi no get I'm time again.

RONALDO'S RECORDS IN JUVENTUS AND SERIA A

Ronaldo broke Juventus’ all-time record for most goals scored in a single season, scoring 37 goals in all competitions in 2019-20.

– He became the fastest player to score 50 Serie A goals, reaching his half-century in just 61 league outings for the Bianconeri.

– The Portugal international became the first player to score 50 or more goals in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A.

Ronaldo is the first player to score 30 or more goals in a single season in three of Europe’s top five leagues.

– He has now reached double figures for the 15th consecutive season, something no other player has done in Europe’s top five leagues.

– The 35-year-old scored in 11 consecutive Serie A games earlier this season, equalling the record set by Gabriel Batistuta and Fabio Quagliarella. He is also the first Juventus player to achieve that feat.

After scoring three goals against Cagliari in January 2020, he became the first Portuguese player to score a hat-trick in Serie A history.

– He is now one of only two players to have scored a hat-trick in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A.

– The Ex-Juventus forward has moved ahead of Rui Costa as the Portuguese player with the most goals in Italy’s top flight.

– Ronaldo’s brace against Lyon meant he is just the third player to score a Champions League goal against a specific opponent with three different clubs.

Note: He attained this achievements while playing in Juventus. So, you may want to have a rethink saying Ronaldo underperformed in Juventus. A little research will let you into his adventure in Seria A

Did I hear you say Messi bullied Ronaldo in Seria A? Ronaldo had almost all his personal achievements while playing in Spain. He dominated the world of football in Spain and the world in general. He went on to win multiple Champions League back to back. Broke most records even in Laliga before leaving. Ronaldo left the league almost worthless. Please, next time when talking, come with facts

HBB1:
How does Ronaldo have more player of the year awards?

What planet have you been living on?

This is the reason I say you lack information. Go do research and stop fooling yourself outside. Ronaldo has won more FIFA best Player award than Messi. He is the highest holder of best men's FIFA Award which is the most prestigious award in football.

Is this too difficult for you to understand...

HBB1:
Fifa and Ballon D'Or came together for some years to give a singular award...

So what are you going on about?

FIFA Men and Women's award is the most prestigious award in the history of football. Others are just complementary awards. And Ronaldo has more than Messi

mayor1814:
D goals u talking about. Look at d ratio of games played to goal scored. Realistically Messi is the highest goal scorer. As for champions league who is Ronaldo without Rooney, scholes and vidic or without Ramos, modric, Marcello etc Look at the average Argentine team that won the world cup. Messi inspired that team to world cup glory now compare to Ronaldo Portugal team to messi Argentina team. Portugal had d better squad yet Ronaldo flopped.


One thing why Ronaldo can't be compared to messi is that when it comes to individual brilliance on d pitch no player in history comes close to messi.



Where was Ronaldo in 2009 champions league final against Messi? Messi emasculated him in d match. No sign of Ronaldo in d match. Look at the dribbles , asssits, free kicks of Messi. U never see Messi saying he's d best coz everyone knows he's the best unlike tapnaldo dat will be shouting and giving himself glory

If you're not being bias in your analysis...
Please, name the Barcelona squad Messi played with and compare them with United or Real Madrid squad. A team that has Xavi, Iniesta, Rolandino, Stop, Tuore and other great players. Infact, that squad literarily made Messi.

Let's now come back to Argentina... There was never a time Argentina hasn't been blessed with super squad. In most world cups, Nigerian have come in contact with them. Messi played with Aguero, Tevis, Higuain, Dimaria, Javier Mascherano, Diego Milito and others. You want to try this squad with the Portugal's squad you can barely pick rugged and we'll balanced players? There has been no world cup Argentina isn't being predicted to make the make it to either the finals or getting to the quarters. You clearly don't even understand football, you just want to argue. All the strikers in Argentina even now and then are major starters in their clubs.

HBB1:
How does Ronaldo have more player of the year awards?

What planet have you been living on?

Go to FIFA Archive...

Most of the awards you guys mentioned and do mention were never given by FIFA

RichTyler:
I am happy you admitted that balloon dor and world cup are key. They are important in rating players,sadly Ronaldo falls short of messi in both. Messi has won two world cup best player,Ronaldo has none.
Ronaldo doesn't have more trophies than messi,messi is the second most decorated player(trophies) after alves.
Messi has won more personal awards than him. Both are great players but messi is far better than him and any other player that has ever played football.

World cup is a team cup, he has his individual stride...

You still have no told me how Messi is greater than Ronaldo. Is it by FIFA rating which is the most authentic or by individual record breaking?

Most individual record breaking in the game of football has been won by Cr7. Fact checked it. He has more FIFA awards. So, this settles it. Other individual awards aren't given by FIFA who's the governing body in World Football

mayor1814:
Now lemme break it down for u

1. When Pele won the world cups he won, there were better performers than him in the Brazilian team. 58 world cup, Didi was awarded "best player of the tournament" 62 world cup, Garrincha was awarded the "best player of the tournament" and pele was present in d two world cups oo. Messi won TWO. A feat Pele never achieved.


2. when Pele was reigning, we had 12 or 16 teams going to d world in comparison to the more competive one of 32 teams we have now in Messi era.



3. In Pele era offside rule and other rules were not there unlike today in messi era. Just imagine the thousands of goals Messi wud have scored without offside rule.




Now in regard to Messi and tapnaldo. There is no any comparison. Is it the dribbles, free kick, assists etc. Even the goals realistically Messi has more goals going by matches played. We not even talking u20 world cup, MAIN WORLD CUP, Copa, finalissima, Olympic gold, ballon dor 7th time etc

This is simple... When you talk about the greatest player, you separate such player from the team as you alluded. If we separate it, Ronaldo has more goals than any football player both dead and living

FIFA is the organizer of the game called Football, Ronaldo has more FIFA Footballer of the year awards. Will are talking about individual giant stride in comparison with both players. They both played in Laliga. Compare them. Ronaldo broke most Laliga records he met before leaving Messi in that same league. They both played in Europe Champions League, Ronaldo has more goals than him

So, when it comes to being the greatest, it's no longer a team issue but individual stat and that's what Ronaldo has more than Messi. The story might changes if it's about team playing, which personally, I'll be heading Messi over Ronaldo

The trophies you just stated, if we're going by that, Dani Alves should be topping it. But, because we're talking about individual giant stride, nobody is talking about Zidane, Alves, and others, but Cr7 and Messi

I put it to you, if Messi was to go into the Saudi League, there won't be any revolution in the Saudi League like it's experiencing now. This is why CR7 is the most popular human on Earth. Not just about the football...

RichTyler:
Messi has more European golden boot,messi has more trophies,messi has more balloon dor, messi has more motm,messi has more playmaker awards,messi has more world cup.
As I am just typing..has more.my keyboard is just updating the rest. Everyone knows Messi is the goat,only people that lives in cave will argue

The key things I'm seeing here is most Ballondior and world cup...

They both played in Europe, and Ronaldo scored more European goals, has more champions league trophy, has more FIFA best awards, most goals score in the history of the game

So, even in Europe, La liga they both played, Ronaldo has more goals and trophies than Messi

I hate to compare between them because it doesn't make sense to do so...

Both are great players, it's better to leave them that way...

Segxydube:
Lol scared of Cristiano?? The competition they had in europe, messi still came on top of him. On the world stage, messi still cane on top... On trophies won, messi still came on top... On individual awards won messi still came on top.

So what nonsense are you saying?

Please, kindly name the Europe competition Messi came on top. Is it numbers of Champions' League cups, or the highest goal scorer in Champions League? Ronaldo played in Europe as a country while Messi plays in South America as a nation of Origin. I'm trying to understand your point as it relates the word 'europe'.

mayor1814:
boss there is no any debate anywhere in the first instance. Messi has always been the best player football has ever seen.

1st Messi

2nd Pele and Maradona

and others like Zidane, Ronaldo De Lima and Tapnaldo in the next level but not in the level of those top three.

I still don't understand why Messi should be number 1. Okay, if you guys claim he has got the World Cup, he has just one, even Pele has two. So, why should Messi be ahead of Pele if World Cup is the criteria. Then, if we use Champions League, Ronaldo should be topping the list. If we say most goals ever scored, Ronaldo should also be topping the list and if it's about most trophies, Dani Alves should be topping the list not Messi... So, what are your criteria for your listing?

In conclusion, I see no reason for comparison. Both players, Ronaldo and Messi are great, if not the greatest the Football family has seen. They're special in their own ways and uniqueness.

MrBroke:
Oga. So who in football who has more records, more achievements?
If you can answer this question correctly and you still compare your social media Player to Messi then keep deceiving yourself. Statistics is there to tell you who is better so go and read and get eduacted

The body that regulates football in the world is FIFA. Meaning, the FIFA award is the most powerful individual awards as a footballer. Ronaldo has more and any other player

teebagy:
U are daft. Didnt celta vigo beat al nasri 5_0. With ronaldo. Let al haili. Al ithad and al nasri play sevill. Bibao. Real sociedad. Villereal . Valencia then they will know how far.

Were you aware the Saudi club played the Club World Cup final with Real Madrid? Where is any US club when it comes to World Club Football?

Please, talk with facts and not sentiments. Messi and Ronaldo are two great players history will never forget. But, we should not talk by placing sentiments ahead of facts

A close look at the before photo, the guy in question look very much on point. He's never an illiterate. First, the Pam's slippers were very neat, his clothes well ironed and clean, then the smiles with the hart. I struggling doubt if this guy was ever a herdman. I feel he just used the stick to take a shot or photoshoot then. A regular herder won't be this neat considering our level of informal education

So, the latter photo is a testament of his lifestyle.

This iconic structure could fetch the country some IGR in terms of tourism. It's now left deserted. We're truly the reflection of our leaders

Go to Obalende/Ikoyi and see the FG's former councils wasting, when it can be renovated and made a mall or space for offices at a subsidized rate, firms will troop to rent them out, but no, we keep borrowing money from people who keeps doing the right things. At the end, the borrowed money will be looted

I weep for this nation

Leggodeals:
Men like crying that women can't look past material things but even men can't look past the artificials in women.

We, ugly women have been quiet and watching on the side for so long. We have a voice too but make we observe finish first. Our pretty friends get picked first all the time. They take the best of men and leave us with scraps. Or should I say men give them their all and fall back on us.

The day the ugly women association of Nigeria will reclaim our voice, no man in this country will have peace, the internet will scatter. Men must look at our potentials of being pretty and stop choosing pretty girls above us.

Lol... Very hilarious 😁
I felt like going through it the second time

I have a personal experience. I was doing an internship in Nigerian Gas Company (NGC) Warri, a subsidiary of NNPC. So, during my Program there, I applied when the job opening came out. Wrote the exams in Uniben 2012. Then, I was sent a congratulatory mail. I was also sent another one to prepare for the next face which is an interview in NNPC tower Abuja. The first schedule was cancelled in 2013, the second schedule for the interview was in February 14, 2014 which now happens to be the presidential election day that year. It was shifted with apologies to another date. That shifted date never came to pass

When I called my bosses to find out what was going on with the pending interview, they were shocked to see new guys, most from overseas northern guys, families of politicians and the high and mighty's children across all the subsidiaries in our positions. No complainces to Federal Character or whatever. That was how my job processes of over 2yrs was taken over by money bags

There was even a trend created here on NL then for that recruitment exercise

I was a sad one... I couldn't recover for years

Jakumo:
When woman don dey old, na to turn winsh remain for am. Who go marry old mama go soon run commot like teef. Got fobit bat ting.

Lol... Dating older lady nor rilly mean say madam don old na. For instance, if d guy na 30, d lady fit dey 32, 33, 34, even 35 sef

Be calming down and let d older single women breathe😁

Well... Dating both categories is relative in terms of altitudes and drama

I've dated an older lady before, her drama was more than necessary. She suspects me too much, no single trust due to her past relationship experiences. I had to call it a break

Few weeks from now is my wedding, just in the final phase of preparation, I can tell you, my fiancee is young and intelligent. Well mannered far more than the older lady.

If God wants to bless a man, He gives him a good woman, irrespective of the age

In conclusion, dating either the old or young lady, what matters is love, respect and above all, peace of mind

Goodlady:
Se ori man naa o buru? Hope the man isn't an unfortunate one?
Why ll you fail in your first responsibility?
The wedding ll hold when the man's financially buoyant and it must not be long.
Borrowing a man to pay for my bride price is the beginning of SAPA in the marriage.
Men, there are some things you must not fail with in life. Handling your wedding well is part of it.

Please, is the wedding the man's wedding? Who is wedding who?

They ops talked about brideprice and not wedding. Wedding is both parties. The man is suppose to pay the brideprice

There's this pride in paying the brideprice of your woman. That being said, when there's [b]proper understanding [/b]and unfortunately, the guy couldn't pay the brideprice, the lady can loan him to return it after the event. Relationship doesn't have a formula, stick to what works for you. Many ladies have their guys money for their wedding and they're doing great till today

So, stick to what works for you. But for me, I won't accept a lady paying the brideprice. If it takes me carrying blocks to gather the money, I'll
