Silencing which critique?

This Portuguese fraud is one of the worse coach of the Super Eagles with this Haram style of eyesore football though... Also with Gernot Rohr and Lars Lagerback.

I still prefer an Austin Eguaveon to this guy.

Mourinho achieved everything in football playing Haram football, the only that matters to Mou is result not beautiful football.
And yeah that's how you win a tournament, DR Congo are yet to win a single match but are already in Quarter finals.

Well invasion and colonization are different...

Both might have different underlying purposes. The aim of an invasion might not be to colonise. Sort of what is going presently like the "invasion" of Ukraine.

But you are right. Russia had little interest in colonization because it already had vast amounts of land which was even a handful for her to manage at the moment.

She had enormous resources at her disposal and did not really need to colonise or exploit the resources from African countries - all the countries that scrambled for Africa did so because of the resources they could exploit.

Russia is a self sufficient country and even till today all the sanctions she has faced and still faces would have crippled any other country but Russia still stands because she has all the resources to be self sufficient so why bother.

Russia had little access to the sea... We can say by the time they were ready to navigate the Baltic sea and move to Africa most of the juicy and easy lands or parts of Africa had already been acquired by other colonial lords/countries.

Russia also had Siberia as her colony which herself also had enormous resources to sustain Russia was also difficult to manage so they had a lot on their plate. Yes Russia had a colony - Siberia.

The size of Russia alone is massive - bigger than a continent. It takes resources/logistics to manage such.

Funding such expeditions would actually have cost them more than they stood to gain in the end.

Same reason they sold Alaska to to US!

Russia became that big by invasion and annexation of smaller nations.

LifeofDream:

I don't understand the kind of opportunity you're talking about, maybe you should come simpler...

You mean Russia did not have the opportunity that Portugal, Spain, Belgium, France have??... Sometimes you guys just talk as if you're senseless...

Imagine saying Russia did not have opportunity to colonise Africa... The same Africa countries like Belgium colonise?...

Who can stop Russia then and now?.. No one.

Do you know that Russia/USSR is the only country that has invaded and annexed over 20 countries ? Yeah that's how Russia became the largest country by land mass, you can google the list of countries invaded by Russia.
To colonise a nation is expensive, as at the time Russia didnt have the financial means to voyage to Africa and colonised nations here.

nobody see them loosing but in football anything can happen… it will be very sad if the defending champions can’t qualify from group stage

Algeria is not the defending champions, Senegal is.

The security situation of the country is worrisome, very wealthy individuals are behind the illicit business.

Seriously, do you realky think if we gave NPFL players chance, they'll succeed?

Cause I follow NPFL and their matches are.... Let me stop there.

Nwabali plays for Chippa United in South Africa.

How can that be their problem when they used same policy to win 8 AFCON? Come on guy. They used that same policy to be a global threat when they met Brazil and showed class. Baba, the problem is that the players want to pass all the balls to Salah. Cant u see as he left, the players became very determined to play their normal games, drimble, shoot the ball. There is this intimidation when u have a global star around u, ur squard immediately feels that the global star should take all shots. This was the problem with Ivory Coast too during Drogba era. Same reason Argentinal struggled at world cup too.
U saw a different Egypt as Salah left. I hope the coach can see this and not start Salah during their next match. Cant u see how the forwards now play great football.
Omo, Zamalek and Ahly are reliable club and have done it over and over again for Egypt. Na from there Aboutrika came out from who was mentioned by Jose Morihino as a superb player to watch. Egypt won AFCON 3 times in a row with these players. They deliver, they arent ur regular Nigerian club abeg.
nigeria that uses all foreign based players, how many AFCON have we won? Dont forget that Egypt also played final in the last edition.

The policy worked back then because the other teams competing didn't have much stars playing in top European teams, in the last year final Senegal fielded a starting eleven that had 11 players who played in top 5 leagues in Europe including Mendy and Mane, the Moroccan team that got to the semi final of the world Cup had over 18 players playing in top 5 leagues in Europe.
It may also interest you to know that in the past Egyptian Premier League don't allowed foreign players, in the last few years that ban has been lifted and some of the best players in the league like Percy Tau are foreigners.
Times have changed, Al Ahli cannot even stand an Everton team, it worked in the past doesn't mean it will work in 2024.

Princedapace:
Egypt has become fire since Salah left. I told someone that Salah is the problem of Egypt. Since Salah became a star, the team struggled becus they all want to give all him all the ball to score. I hope the coach learns. The team play has improved. The coach needs to fix this issue.

Salah plays a different role for Egypt, he is actually their chief creator and often switch to the number 10 role unlike Liverpool where he cuts in from the wings to score goals.
Egypt's policy of relying on home based players from All Ahli, Zamalek, Future and Pyramid FC to execute international tournaments is their problem not Salah, Mo worked hard to take them to the final last year.

You carrying fake news is the worst enemy of this country Nigeria.The police have to arrest you and carry out investigation.if found guilty then they should send you to jail.

This was published in all daily newspapers last October, maybe you had not phone to access the internet then.

You think everything starts and ends on Nairaland ?
Go to the Police spokesperson official handle on Twitter (X) if you won't find it there, is that hard for you to do ?


Here is another screenshot, I follow Prince Muyiwa on Twitter but you don't, so do you know what transpires there ?

Goodnewsforlife:
oga we are talking about biscuit n provision shop

so only biscuits are sold in a provision shop ?

Goodnewsforlife:
Aside shop rent

700k go run am well

Many of those stuffs there are biscuits n minor things that aren’t that expensive, don’t b surprised a carton might b 2k n 50 cartons will b 100k n once u see it assembled together u go think say na one big thing

Op don’t mind those people mentioning millions cos it’s obvious they don’t know much about it, start with any amount n u will start restocking with the turn over

U can even b lucky that some companies will give u goods on credit n u will pay later

Try enter contribution n tell them they should give u d first one so u can use it to stock your shop

U don’t need millions jare

Start first with whatever u have

The reason I don’t rate comments here on nairaland is because many of them don’t even know what they are talking about but they just want to call amount n feel big

If u doubt me, go to auto section and tell them u want to buy a bicycle n your budget is 50 million naira, they will always tell u the money isn’t enough

They will start calling ridiculous prices way above the budget

I opened something similar recently to keep my wife's younger sister busy, I spent over 2m without shop rent.
700k can't stock that shop, it may look small but it's not. By the time you get a fridge, AC, stock cartons of wine and the rest.

Why recruit criminals into an important security agency as the NPF, this will give the criminals the needed security cover to carry out their criminal activities unchecked.
The fact that a Police spokesman is defending this on social media makes it the more worrisome.

Rolings:


Sometimes criminals behave in a way that puts security agencies in a very difficult situation.
If a man decides to behave irrationally it's okay for police to be irrational with him too.
The police I know would have extended invitation to him and called him to come to their office and he has refused.
I'm sure he ran to that television studio believing falsely that he can't be arrested on set.

Nigeria police only send out invitation to big men and politicians, they invade your house with guns and live ammunition if you're a nobody in the society.

Putindbutt:

CCB/CCT invited and tried Saraki, and what happened?. CCB Invite is not a conviction of guilt. I'm done with your expired brain.

You don't even have a brain let alone an expired one, just as your failure of a father lack a functioning brain.
Like I said you have never seen the CCPO neither the CCB 2004 Act your entire miserable life.

Mokason288:


Tinubu is the greatest politician…

It’s just a political statement to Tor Tor ri the goat

Hahahahaha politicians are very funny set of people.

Putindbutt:

baba, keep quiet. CCB invite doesn't mean being guilty, EFCC invite does not mean one is guilty, appearing before a court does not imply one is guilty until proven otherwise. You must be a product of half-baked education, hopefully, you don't pass on your dumb traits to your kids.

You see why I asked you to stop disgracing your miserable father on a public forum, I asked you a simple question, why was he invited ?
First you said he wasn't invited because of the N580m scam saga but because of his failure to his assets.
Secondly I asked you if he is the only minister yet to declare his assets, and why was he the only one invited. You couldn't even defend your opinion, and now you're telling me that he is not quilty until proven guilty.
You're just a dumb kid who knows nothing about government and public service code of conduct.
My kids attends one of the best schools in Lagos, and my 24 years old son lives alone and doing pretty well for himself, he graduated from one of the best universities in the country.
My kids will never be as dumb as you're, not in this life or the one to come.

Mokason288:
Buhari is a disaster that should never happen to any country ..
Buhari has no business being in the public office…

I wish he was already in Niger when the border was closed so he won’t have any access back into Nigeria

But Tinubu said he is great man and has even written two books to honour him.

Putindbutt:

so what's wrong in being invited?, if CCB feels the need to invite him, so be it. CCB is primarily concerned with assest declaration. The minister said he had resign his directorship in 2019 before taking public office, therefore, CCB is in its right to fact check him. I'm taking my time to break it down for you because of your age-related low mental capacity.

if CCB invited him for assets declaration, is he the only minister yet to declare his/her assets ?
Why is he the only one invited ?

Stop displaying your ignorance for the world to see kid.

Putindbutt:

As long as you did not use your office to award conracts to yourself, no rules has been broken. Barth used his offhe to award conracts `o his ,bompan, he broje the rujes, but Tunji Ojo has not. Yemi Osinbajo's chamber had briefs from FG but not from VP's office. Kenyamo is a minister yet his chamber collect briefs from EFCC. The new AGF has clients on electoral election, will his chamber stop collecting briefs because he's now the AGF?. If your brain is to slow to understand federal service rules, pls give it to your 5 year old kid to interprete for you.

So why was he invited ?
Imagine a kid who doesn't know what CCPO stands or gone through it talking about understanding public service rule, have you seen the CCB Act 2004 ?

What he has done is conflict of interest, you can rant childishly on nairaland for months it won't still changed the fact that he breached oat of office.

Putindbutt:

Being the minister of power, Barth awarded a contract to his own company, directly in the ministry he supervises. In contrast, ministry of humanitarian awarded a contract to a company owned by Tunji Ojo, an entirely different ministry from the Interior ministry under Tunji Ojo. Hope you understand it now, Mr.50year old slowpoke?

Just like your failed father you have never in your miserable life gone through the CCPO or CCB Act 2004, so do you expect to know what Constitute a crime or conflict of interest in public offices ?

You're way way dumber than I gave you credit for.

Putindbutt:


Good that you admitted he didn't award any contract to his company. The next question is, how did you know that the company never bided for the contract?. Maybe you should ask all the technocrats in public office shut down their businesses to please a grumbling toad like you. Do you know how many SANs in public office collecting briefs on behalf of government?

I am at almost 50 years of age I and your father should be age mates therefore your miserable father is a toad.
With that said, in 2012 bid were submitted by two power companies to take over Afam and Enugu power plants, one of the companies were Geometric Power, a company discovered to have link with the then minister of power Prof. Barth Nnaji. Prof. Barth was able to proved that he had resigned his position with the company long before he was made a minister, though he was still a shareholder of the company just as Tunji-Ojo resigned his position but still owns the company.
There was public outcry and Barth resigned despite being the most performing minister at the time, he admitted he went against oat of office and tendered his resignation as expected.

Now tell me the son of a miserable toad, is their any difference between what happened to Barth and what is happening now ?

At least N423m wasn't discovered in Barth's account unlike Tunji-Ojo's.

Putindbutt:

did he award contracts to his company?

he doesn't need to award the contract himself, common sense should tell you that he influenced it because the company has never won or bidded for such contract with the federal government.
Even my 24 years understands civil act far better than what you just displayed, once you are linked to a company awarded a contract by any ministry as a government official it's considered a crime and conflict of interest.
New Projects Limited has just two shareholders, Olubunmi and his wife and he owns the company being the major shareholder.

Putindbutt:

guy, you're talking nonsense, his company can execute any project for the government so long as due process was followed.

Government officials are not allowed to award contracts to companies owned by them or linked to by shares, that's called conflict of interest in government and it encourages embezzlement of public funds.

TimeManager:

The fact that his company's name was mentioned does not make him complicit.

-kiss the truth!

You are way dumber than the person quoting you gave you credit for, the question is what kind of consultation services is a company formed in 2017 with just two known shareholders ( Olubunmi and his wife) going to render to the tune of N424m ?
And who do you think made it possible for such a company to secure such contract if not Tunji-Ojo who owns the company and also a good friend of Betta Edu ?

VeeVeeMyLuv:


U want fct minister & the President to step aside? This is what your statement means!

The president don't govern FCT but Nigeria, Wike govern FCT therefore declaring state of emergency in FCT means Wike is no longer fit to continue not the president.

EreluRoz:
He tried his best, he was one of the best ministers

He did nothing other than stealing public funds, how was he one of the best if I may ask ?

RepoMan007:
by eliminating the need to import petrol, diesel, and more with forex, forex prices will crash thereby strengthening the naira. That means imported commodities like food, clothes and more will cost less to import and thus cheaper. It affects the common man irrespective of whether fuel goes for N1500 or N350 a litre.

Do you think Dangote refinery can refined fuel that covers our daily consumption ?
Local supply alone can also not sustain the day to day running of the refiinery as they need at least 4m barrels of crude oil weekly to maintain 350,000blpd refining capacity.
At the end of the day the refinery still have to source crude f omg outside the country, it's operations will have no effect on any forex.

I done check net tire wetin diz oliseh play wey dem make am super eagle coach... D only tin I found was a shoot outside 18box in France 1998...oliseh is mad na him put us into diz uzoho wahala

You're obviously a kid, Oliseh Captained Ajax in era black players find it hard to attain such height in football, he was the highest paid African player while at Juventus.

Emperormartin:
Without you saying it we know you're saying the truth...

Oliseh was trying to prove to Nigerians that he was "the perfect perfectionist"

But the image he was trying to create destroyed him even till today...

Enyeama, Mikel even emenike have More legendary status in super eagles than him

Oliseh won AFCON and was an integral member of the Super Eagles squad that qualified Nigeria to her first world Cup appearance, Mikel and those you mentioned can never touch Oliseh's legacy in the National team.
Except you started watching football in 2012.
