Travel / Re: Reviving The Travel Section With A Destination Story - My Visit To South Korea! by unmask: 10:14pm On Jan 26, 2023
Seslie:
I decided to travel to South Korea last year after developing a huge wanderlust to visit the country. I visited Seoul, Jeonju, Boseong, Namwon and Busan.

I found it to be a very beautiful country. Some of my favourite things include the food, ease of transportation around the country and Korean architecture. I will start off this thread with how I got my visa and how to travel from Nigeria to South Korea.

Feel free to ask me any questions about visiting South Korea. Please note that I do not know much about moving there. I will only be able to respond to questions about visiting as a tourist.

I hope you enjoy the stories. I will post as fast as I can but might be slow too... smiley
Did you apply with your Nigerian passport or a foreign one?

I would like to visit South Korea or Japan. But I don't want to stress myself getting a visa if it is difficult for Nigerian passport holders to get one

This is rubbish why try to correct one Ill by causing another.

You don't block a public space for people to show their PVC because you don't have that authority.

If you are saying this about Soludo for enforcing the law, won't you say the same thing about PO if he wins and he is enforcing the law?

Ronaldo was always involved. He was the tormentor. The one who Milan put 3 players on lol
Milan played Man UTD twice. In 2007 and 2010

Ronaldo played in 2007 and was pocketed by Cafu.
Milan won 5-3 on aggregate. In 2010 Ronaldo was in Madrid. Rooney led the line and they beat Milan well

Politics / Re: 2023: He Is Reason I Call Lagos Home, Okocha Endorses Tinubu by unmask: 1:08pm On Jan 14, 2023
Aufbauh:
The friendship Tinubu has make all over the country from north to south isn't fluke.

It is his heart of selflessness and kindness to all regardless of your origin and religion that has endeared him to many.

An Igbo friend/neighbour of mine who we do early morning workout together told me a brief story of his friend who's once Tinubu's DSS aide.

He said the friend told him that Tinubu will be more interested in your issue than yourself if you're having challenges.

He said sometimes it is Tinubu who will remind him whether he has call his mum, and right there he'll make him to call his mum, ask about her health and so on. If the mum is challenged, Tinubu will give him money to send home and follow up on it.

He concludes that if such man gives you any assignment to deliver you'll do all that you could to make him proud.

Tinubu has built loyalty in people by his friendliness and the act of giving.
Good. But at the current point we are in and all the things we have seen, do you think he is fit (health wise) to rule. Having a good heart is not the same has being physically and mentally capable to rule

It's just pure hate


Honest truth

The kind of goals Ronaldo scores

Brings out the best emotions, Messi is a better player and scores some wonderful goals too by dribbling the whole field

But you see when the team is being write off and beating in the first leg

Ronaldo in his prime can turn the whole stadium upside down by stepping up to win the match ALONE in the second leg

Eg. That athletico Madrid game vs juventus
I'll never forget how I jumped out of my chair
From .2.0 first leg
0.3 second leg all 3 goals Ronaldo

Done that so so many times for Madrid too and Portugal

I can count so many games I have watched personally that only Ronaldo name will be on the score sheet (hattricks) to win a game

Even did it last season for united when maguire wanted to cancel it with own goals
lol....He said alone. 2 headers and one penalty (he didn't win). The people that crossed for him to score were ghosts abi or you don't realize that from the cross to his head is one touch, from his head to the goal is another touch. Just another Haaland

Ronaldo played against many of those players and came out top. For instance our match against AC Milan we won by more than 6 goals. Ronaldo played.

Apparently you don't even watch the matches you claim to have watched. Did Ronaldo play against Milan for the 4-0 win? Who were Milan defenders?

Agbegbaorogboye:

I'm not holding forte for benzema. But he did not play bullshit for 12 years. That's what happens when you look at football from the angle of an individual.
Some Ronaldo fans once said that he can win champion league with eleven woods.
Now, he left Madrid and he can't even make final four.
What I'm painting for you is that benzema was well adapted to playing second fiddle to Ronaldo. Just as Vinicius is playing side kick to benzema now though it can be argued the team relies more on Vini than him.
Just like Rooney did for him in Man UTD. It is surprising how much underrated Benzema is/was

If I have a penalty to save my life

Prime Cristiano is taking it

Even ahead of Messi and neymar

The shot power of Ronaldo during his prime days is unreal

All these haaland is doing now

Ronaldo has done times 7 of it for 10yrs straight Scoring more goals than total number of games played

Meaning starting a match is already 1 nil with Ronaldo

P.s
I said prime Ronaldo (25-33)
Don't start comparing him when he is old 38yrs old

Start R9, Bench Benzema, sell CR7

At their prime CR7 was the least technical. Contributed less to other phases of play and was largely dependent on others. My preferred style of football will be more foot-ball and less aerial balls

But he left himself open.

Yes,, for sure.

He chooses his own cabinets.
And he doesn't use positions to pay party people back for their supports.

So, why won't he see a good woman in all Nigerian Women?
I am not against giving women positions. I am against giving it to women because they are women.

I felt he could have answered that question better

Even though most of what he said are good. I wasn't satisfied with his response on women in strategic positions.

At this point he should be looking for the best person for the job regardless of gender.

Promising to not discriminate along gender lines is way better than promising positions to women

then the military is a failure. If the military cannot generate intelligence from any part of the country, then it good to say that the military is either run by incompetent people or incompetent people are running the military.

Shame
No they do generate intelligence from parts of the country that are relatively safe or those areas where they have easily apprehended suspects. But there are several areas where the major source of intelligence are the people that know these criminals but don't say anything, either because they don't trust the military or they are more fearful of the criminals.

Basically the military needs as much help as it can from ordinary citizens to curb these criminals

Climate change being like a church rat and poisoned communion. You are asking struggling countries to reduce fossil fuel which is their main source of income.

Similar thing happened when countries started firing up their coal mines due to the Ukraine crisis.

Timekeeper452:
ronaldo going to Saudi won’t bring any attention more than this already to the league. Saudi leagues are not easily watchable like every other league. And to top it off, the club isn’t even playing in the league’s championship. No one forced Ronaldo to retire, his age and stats did. If you are a lover of Fifa video game, you would also see his stats and ratings dropped aggressively, same happened real life. Why would I want a 38 year old with a sharp decline on a $500k wage when that can get me really good young strikers. Him taking this deal is the best thing he did for himself. The world is only mocking him because he mocked those that took similar deal (xavi). Dude even did an interview months ago, thrashing non ambitious teams and stating how he wanted playing at the top and would never move to Saudi for money. Lol.
Well said. The bolded is what Ronaldo fans have failed to understand.

I am very very happy he signed it

You all are forcing him to retire
Every single day a 38 yrs old is being talked about like a finished product and all clubs reading news shy away from him
He is being Forced to reduced his salary to 100k and join sporting Lisbon. Can you imagine

Someone with a very large staff and mansions to cater for

He was on 500k at united
He is 38yrs old and being forced to retire by all
So why not retire with 3m per week instead of 100k in sporting

Him going to Saudi will bring investors and attention to the league
He will be treated with respect and loved by millions
Will be an ambassador for the nation at large

The Ronaldo brand will multiply in Saudi

He must have been advised to stop thinking of the fans and people, think about your Family

His Family first and most of the people saying shit about him. He doesn't even know exist

[/b]Most players even in Europe are chasing the money and not the career[b]

If he signed for 100k Sporting Lisbon to make sure people call him finished
People will blast him
If he signs 3m for Saudi people will still blast him

So he chose what will benefit him and his kids and immediate family for generations to come
basically he swallowed the humble pie. Quick question if Messi offers himself to the Arabs now, do you think he will earn more than Ronaldo?

Goal scoring is the most important part of football.. The sports is not like basketball where a players ability to make blocks is as important as his ability to score. Messi fans just make you want to believe the only thing cr7 is interested in is scoring goals. The last time I checked ronaldo has over 300 assists in his professional career. Dont forget he has also played almost 200 times for portugal if he is such a bad character like some people want us to believe several managers will not continue to invite him to the national team. The three records i mentioned above your e.w.u(goat) cant break even in his next life. Know this and know peace.
Let me help you out here.

A playmaker and a goal scorer.

Now a playmaker is involved in the phase of play which leads to a goal and is usually the most creative outlet for the team. Now a playmaker might have lots of assist like Debruyne or have less like Modric or Xavi or Pirlo, but what they do is create plays that opens up the game for the team to score.

Messi has been the creative outlet and top goal scorer for his team for so many years. That is no mean feat

Imagine someone doing the job of Debruyne and Lewandowski at the same time. What makes it even more spectacular is that he doesn't camp in the box 18 to get to do the Lewandowski bit.

If anyone actually plays football and understand what is required in being both the playmaker and top goal scorer, arguments against Messi's greatness ended years ago.

Built a federal university in Ebonyi state, started the 2nd Niger bridge even though he didn't complete it.

He appointed two Igbos at the same time to head the army and the Navy. Rear Admiral D.J. Ezeoba was CNS, and General Ihejirika was the COAS.

He introduced Innoson technology into the realms of the Nigerian military apparatchik, Air force included.
Building Federal universities was one of the missteps of the Jonathan administration. We had several universities that were struggling for funding and he went on to add more to the list. A better option would have been world class vocational centres were people can learn skills the right way

How is appointing South Easterners an achievement. Nigerians have still failed to learn that Your saviour is not the one that carries the same tribal name as you, but the best person for the job. If that was the case, then all the states will be paradise as it is their kinsmen that are ruling. In the bible Jesus talked of the good Samaritan for a reason
