SportsRe: Nigeria Vs Lithuania Olympics Basketball 2012 ( 53 - 72) On Tuesday 31st July by wy2000(m): 1:43am On Aug 01, 2012
occam: Where are all the Nigerian guys playing in the NBA? Are they not on the Naija team? I see Aminu al Farouk and that's it. Emeka Okafor may be a stiff but he still a good rebounder

How can Lithuania trash us? Ah well, looks like we're just a passenger in this Olympics
Our problem was not rebounding per se. We couldnt shoot!!
The team out-hustled the bigger Lithuania team and forced many tornover, but could NOT shoot!!

Freesia: You may have misunderstood me there...first BUILD a home team,GAIN a reputation,KEEP the reputation and let the sky be the limit for players.Bottom line is Nigeria would be seen as one of the teams any professional athlete,high ranking player or MVP would like to play for.Nigeria is the BRAND here!
Out of curiosity did the US based players have an option to play for Team USA in the Olympics?
Nigeria team should be made up of the BEST among anybody of Nigerian citizenship. So the foriegn-based/born players should be banned?
So what makes the players in Nigeria more Nigerian than foreign born ones??
The Olympic Team is made up of Nigerians, whether at birth or naturalized. Even at that, ALL of them are Nigerians at Birth!!!

Freiburger: and what is wrong in recruiting non-Nigerians as part of the effort of having a sound team?
Who in the team is not a Nigerian? Cos all of them have Nigerian name with Nigerian parents?
PoliticsRe: Retain Subsidy And Perish- Sanusi by wy2000(m): 11:47pm On Dec 24, 2011
MarcAnthon:
The whole argument on whether or not subsidy should be removed should not arise in the first place, since, in truth, there is no subsidy in the first place.

Please everyone should take time out and read this article: http://saharareporters.com/article/real-cost-nigeria-petrol-dr-izielen-agbon

Check out the relative cost of petrol in other OPEC nations:

1. Venezuela: Caracas — 2-3p per litre  (that is about N7 per litre)
2. Saudi Arabia: Riyadh — 8p per litre   (about N20 per litre)
3. Libya: Tripoli — 9p per litre
4. Turkmenistan: Ashgabat — 12p per litre
5. Bahrain: Manama — 13p per litre
6. Kuwait: Kuwait City — 14p per litre
7. Qatar: Doha — 15p per litre
8. Egypt: Cairo — 19p per litre
9. Oman: Muscat — 20p per litre
10. Algeria: Algiers — 20p per litre   (about N51 per litre)

[/url]

And some of these countries like Egypt, are not even major oil producing countries. Venezuela has not increased oil prices for the past 20 years! Their economy has not crashed.

Let's not give an inch in this matter. No wonder these guys can afford to spend billions on food and vehicles and aircraft replacement even when there is nothing wrong with the current ones, and our assembly men earn even more than the US president. It's all insane. It is an insult to the Nigerian people that we should even be talking about this while they go on with business as usual.

Enough is definitely enough!
Did you seriously read the yahoo UK article?  shocked
Let me repost a paragraph for you.
**********************
A matter of context

Now, before you all start weeping at the prospect of 2p per litre petrol, it's worth remembering that these insanely low rates almost always come at some cost.

Take Venezuela. Yes, the country may have outrageously low petrol prices. But vast numbers of its residents live in poverty - the UN calculates 30% of the population live on less than $2 a day. As The Guardian's South America correspondent Rory Carroll points out, some analysts place the overall cost to economy of maintaining such low petrol prices (through subsidies and loss of taxation) at around £13bn. That's more than double the education and health budgets.

But this doesn't mean that the cost of petrol isn't unfairly high in this country, especially when you consider that the UK is actually amongst the top 20 oil producing countries in the world.
****************

Conclusion is that subsidy comes at a cost!! and by the way, which Oil producing country with HALF of our population still subsidizes their fuel!!?

@ lucabrasi
One of the things human beings have to check is the tendency to degrade to the character we are previously condeming, when we get to similar position.

The admirals daughter did NOT do ANYTHING to this case. what you are proposing is akin to what the admiral did and what u are condeming vigourously here- BULLYING

LET US SEPERATE FACTS HERE. You wont like to be on the receivng end of everything BAD that your father did, dont wish it on anybody. Am wondering what the girl will be feeling now.
also it will serve u well if u respect peoples privacy, posting somebody's personal email on a public site without the person's consent  TOTALLY wrong and treated as a criminal offence in some countries.

LET US NOT ALLOW OUR PASSION, (WHICH IS WELL INTENDED) TO BECLOUD OUR JUDGEMENT AND SENSE OF RIGHT.

cheers

SportsRe: Berti Vogts Must Go by wy2000(m): 11:41am On Feb 05, 2008
Berti goat should have been sacked afterthe Mali match. It was obvious then that if u had qaulified for quater final , that if was not because of his input.
The coach should take the responsibility for the failure, before others because, he assembled the team, coached them and chooses the players on the pitch at any time. If the players fielded on the pitch were not playing with passion, then "he choose and fielded them". Berti goat's team were not palying with any passion, he also lost the tactical battle most of the time.

Next is the NFA that employed him, and also the team of "experts" that spent our time and money travelling to europe to look for a coach, and ended up with a scotland reject. These people are OUR MAIN PROBLEM!!!!

Next if the team themselves, most of them were not playing with passion, like they wanted to win. even is the coach was a GOAT ( of which Berti more than qualified), the players were the people on the pitch, they should have the will to win. Only Osaze, shittu and uche played like they wanted to win. Yakubu is a matterfor another day.

We dont need a foriegn coach to succed, we have more than enough choices from Siasia, Keshi, Oliseh, Iroha and Equavon to choose from. But after Berti we should also sack the NFA, only them will Nigerian football get a fresh lease of life
