engrchykae:
you said nothing
I have no time for people who enjoy polishing pebbles and darkening diamonds.
Is the CL the only competition that binds Europe?
What about the Europa where Sevilla have colonized?
It was such rantings from people like you in the 50s that made Europe to start playing the CL because during preseason, Bolton won all their preseason matches and the English Media started ranting how their league is the Best.
Europe now said ok,let's have a competition to prove who is the best.and Spain have proved to be best.
Shut up and stop making noise.
One world cup and two world wars.
Stupid English people.
People who played in the last two decades from Italy, Portugal, Spain, Germany are all doing fine as managers except English fools like lampard, Gerard, Rooney, Gary Neville etc who are busy relegating clubs.
When it comes to talking (commentary)leave it for English.
But when it comes to business of football (Playing and coaching) English are mediocres

I feel your pain. But facts are facts.

It's obvious you are a kid with nothing to add but rants and insults. I didn't know that simple post would give anybody heart attack.

Get this, club football at the highest level in Europe is played in the Champions League.

You could have impeached the statistics I provided about the success of English clubs in the CL. In stead, you went on a rant about Sevilla's exploits in the second-tier Europa League and then concluded that "Spain proved to be the best". What type of kindergarten argument is that: a glorified drivel!

In any case, let this sink into your head: If Man city win the CL this season, they will be the sixth team in England to win it, against Spain's two! Another dagger in the heart of La Liga Supremacists. LOL.

You mean say Obi don't enter one chance?

engrchykae:
Spain are miles ahead of England in everything

The Premier League is light years ahead of La Liga.

Out of the top five leagues in Europe, I rate La Liga ahead of only French League 1. Serie A is far ahead of La Liga; even Bundesliga is more exciting to watch.

Two clubs, with due respect to their exploits in the CL, do not make a great league. Remove these two clubs from La Liga and just imagine what's left! Barcelona and Real Madrid are the two clubs carrying La Liga.

In any case, the pedestal on which you people place La Liga over The Premier League isn't backed by empirical evidence. Only three different clubs in La Liga have graced the CL finals in the last 20 years. In the same period, the Premiership that your likes are quick to denigrate has produced six different CL finalists (four different finalists in the last 5 years!)

You still don't think the Premier League deserves more respect?

engrchykae:
I guess Pep is English.
Do you know that both pep and Mikel are Spanish?
Lampard, Gerard and Rooney are getting sacked while Spanish guys are doing well

Goalposts shifting and La Liga fans. Man City and Arsenal are English Clubs. End of story. Which one is "both pep and Mikel are Spanish"?

Madrid were truly blown away.

Not this time, SS deserves the position. Perhaps... Deputy Speaker.

ModCaller:
So you believe Brighton will beat Arsenal? Lol

T8ksy:






The first ( indigenous) Minister of education in Nigeria was an Igbo man- Aja Nwachukwu (1958-1965).

The federal govt scholarship scheme meant for the southern part of the country was dominated by ibos.

Ditto the staffing strategy of these higher institutions VCed by Igbos in Yorubaland I.e UI with 112 staffs, 98 were igbos!

Akintola's decision to parley with Ahmadu bello rulership instead of Zik's organ grinder, led to Richard Akinjide's emergence as the successor to Nwachukwu.
This was when kasala burst and the scam became breaking News! Igbos had 98% of the scholarships
scheme reserved for southern part of the country, whilst the rest of us in the south, have to make do with the remaining 2%!!

Igbos and their "domination" genetic trait is so akin to a scorpion and his propensity to "sting", at will.

What do we call this? Sordid tribalism? I'm sure many "Igbo intellectuals" at the time (and even now) would call that brazen show of shame "Igbo Amaka!"

No wonder they hated Akintota with a passion and quickly dispatched him with prejudice in 1966!

T8ksy:




Olodo ni e ! So awo's free education was in 1970s? Clap for your self. You deserve a gold award for your public show of abject ignorance.

Of course, they got their posts through "merit". I wonder how many such posts did you igbos get from your northern political partners. Afterall, these guys are not as educationally gifted as you guys.

Despite this, the North still managed to get a Northerner to head their Uni.

The NPC didn't care whom Zik appointed as Vice Chancellors "in the South" as long as it wasn't ABU. So Zik helped himself and appointed his tribesmen.

NewNigeriaMind:
Yes they were the first because doing the time, the head of state in person of Azikwe made sure igbos got all federal appointments and headed all federal offices.

Didn't it strike you as odd that even when the Yoruba was ahead of the Igbos in education at the period, the head of state thought it fit that hs tribes men should head all federal institutions.

The same igbos are here accusing Buhari of following a template handed down by Azikwe the grand lord of tribalist in Nigeria history.

FreedomfromtheT:
Every popular politician have lovers and haters alike. That is not the point. I don't think handpicking successors to cover up for one and do one's bidding is an achievement in saner climes.
No political officer holder is elected to spend eight years in office just preparing grounds for successors.
Lagos is a rich state and any governor would have made achievements nonatter his sponsors and party affiliation.
But can you please list what Tinubu achieved in 8 years when he was Lagos state governor?
Thanks.

Tinubu raised the IGR of Lagos State from 600 million naira per month to 15 billion naira per month. Without question Tinubu made Lagos State "rich!"

Did you know Tinubu built 49 primary health care centres across the State?

Did you know Tinubu built thousands of new blocks of classrooms in primary schools across the State?

Did you know Tinubu built thousands of housing units across the state?

Go and research the reforms Tinubu instituted in the civil service and the Judiciary.

Something tells me you're only pulling my leg.

FreedomfromtheT:
Please leave hatred or love for Tinubu out of the issue at hand here.
You mean that if a former governor of eight years didn't perform well, we can conclude he did well simply because those he handpicked did well after him?

Tinubu's First Term laid the foundation for those that came after him. It might not be much to you, but we saw the trajectory enough to trust him with a second term. Choosing a capable successor is also part of success (pun intended), which says a lot about an administrator's capacity to deliver good governance. 24 years down the line, Jagaban is still delivering...

Abeg, na pure hatred o. Nothing else.

Mrfeel:


Don't tell me the north enjoys their backwardness and see nothing wrong with illiteracy and porvety , and if yes why get provoked by been called illiterates and poor ? If that's their way of live then it's better for them to have their own country and maintain their beliefs cause the rest of the country don't share in their beliefs too

They have a different world view from you and live in the same country with you. You mean you loathe that fact. That's intolerance. It's this superiority syndrome of Southerners that the North finds most disgusting. We are neither superior nor inferior to the North, just different.

Mrfeel:

Should it not provoke them to change the narrative? Are statistics on poverty and illiteracy not done for people in question to make a change?

Here we go again. Implicit in your questions is a philosophical world view that you believe the North should share. Why ridicule them because they don't agree with you.

Mrfeel:

Should we beg or become slaves to the northerners cause they have the numbers?

Nobody's asking you to grovel before anybody. But calling people "backward" or "illiterate" is unwarranted provocation.

Mrfeel:


There is no humor in what they are saying ,it's a fact south has the education The north only has the numbers

Yea, South "has the education" but no sense. Why stack the numbers you agree they have against you by riling up these Northerners.

Northerners and their wicked sense of humour. "1+1 = 11" ...

Rest. Both Tinubu's friends and enemies knew he performed credibly well as a Governor in Lagos State.

...

Tinubu did very well in Lagos. To many of his enemies, he did nothing. But some of these people love Fashola, Ambode and even SanwoOlu whose emergence as Governors wasn't without Tinubu's blessing. Their hatred for Tinubu is personal, it's got nothing to do with him as an administrator.

Ofunaofu:


No Lagosian who voted against Tinubu was misled, Tinubu was beaten blue black in lagos because he failed as governor

Lagosians are aware that he is the only governor in Nigeria who built a conduit pipe from the coffers of lagos State treasury to his personal company Alpha Beta, thereby milking the state dry, shortchanging Lagosians of their common wealth

Lagosians are aware that his wife is a perpetual senator of the federal republic of Nigeria

Lagosians are aware that Tinubu converted all lagos State properties to his and his family

Lagosians are aware that immediately after his tenure, lagos became second most unliveable city in the entire world

Lagosians are aware that Tinubu is a Notorious narcotic drug trafficker the city of Chicago Conakry has ever known

Lagosians are aware that Tinubu is enmeshed in identity crisis and educational controversies

Lagosians are also aware that Tinubu is engaging in criminal state capture

These and many more are the reason why he failed in Lagos and in a free, fair and credible contest, Tinubu will be beaten blue black again and again

Tinubu did well in Lagos, abeg go rest.

Today na Sunday o. Ojo Isimi.

Burruchaga71:
Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Burruchaga71:
So where did he come from?

From Lagos nah, Isale Eko. Where else did Tinubu tell you he came from?

MichioKaku:
How come Ikoli Harcourt-Whyte born in Abonnema, Rivers state and considered to be a Kalabari man spokes only Igbo language?

All his songs were in Igbo.

Some of his songs were Atula Egwu, Nwa Oge Nta, Ekele Nna, Onwu
Akwa Onye Agha, Ihe..., Ubochi Omumum, Anyi Emebiwo Uwagi Chineke etc

I am confused. Can someone explain please.

Ikoli died in a car accident in Rivers state in 1977 at the age of 72.

Mischievous, not "confused".

A troll and a windbag who wants to be Kogi State Governor. Na wa o, Kogi people don suffer!

Are you saying Obi na Yahoo Deluxe 2.0

Story. The White Man had come and gone, long before you were born a Nigerian. Is this not the same Igbo girl that is fighting tooth and nail to install an Obi as President...of the same Nigeria she just belittled before the world. Just negodu.

genkins:

50k boys

Another drunken Obidient, I presume?

To those attacking the op, why don't you just tell us how much Obi paid as hazard allowance and simply put the debate to rest.

See who's talking!

Obi is right, politicians like himself are the problems of this country.
