Business › Re: North’ll Kill Petroleum Industrial Bill-ex-minority Leader by YoruIgbo(m): 12:11am On Jun 24, 2011

The problem is SS have all these resources (Oil and Gas) but they lack the right manpower cheesy

I remember during my days in the university, one oil company came to our school looking for Bayelsa and Rivers students in the School of Engineering but not even one!! although I told them to FF off!! As in if you are looking for Bayelsa student, go to Naija you will see loads of them and stop looking for them in Europe grin

The truth is most oil companies in the so called Niger Delta are either run by Oyibo, Yoruba or Igbo people, God no dey give you everything otherwise you go wan rub shoulder with God, He gave Naija Delta oil but no manpower, God gave the west(oyibo people) intelligent men and women but they are not short of natural disaster but He gave Africa loads of Natural resources and made African leaders Natural disaster grin

Well knowing that the 2003 season Arsenal had the Premiership title before Okocha magic dent a massive blow into their title hope by engineering a come back from 2-0 down to 2-2 handing the title to Manchester United,

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TELL ME YOU DID NOT SAY THAT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OFgfM3-LCM watch the video may be you might learn a valuable lesson!!!!

Well knowing for a fact, over Okocha's playing Career he earned almost 3 to 4 times Kanu has ever earned (no wonder he is still playing) and remember that over the last 4 years Kanu has been on "pay when you play" contract, So the chance of his family auctioning his medals are slim,

I cant remember FIFA rewarding 6th place, I could remember an accoladed for 3rd 2nd and 1st, but 4th to 50th got NOTHING!!!!!!!!!! the phrase that has the words Clutching and straws comes to mind.

Comments above!!!

Unfortunately for Bill Gates, he worked hard all his life, compared to some government Ghost worker who pops just to pick up salaries they do not deserve.

David Bentley had a 15 minutes hat-trick for Blackburn against Manchester United, I cant remember them having heavenly feeling over it,

The reality is a striker is judged on goals scored, and Looking Kanu's stat, he makes Emile Heskey look like Marco Van Basten

I really don't understand Ola-Ray's beef in this matter, I said Kanu's hat trick will have a place in my heart and he is criticising me for that!!! I said a place in my heart!! Not your heart, I mean my heart, And he replied with David Bentley, I'm sure your Bentley hat trick will have a place in someone's heart too grin

just like you are dying for Okocha and you are forcing everyone to agree that Okocha is the best, Strange people with strange ideas

Ebenezer Obey said it that 'No matter what you do you can't impress human being!!! Haba if una say make we kill person wey im soup no sweet, wetin una go do who no cook at all, E yin omo adamo,

Well I will rest my case here because no matter what we tell some of you you will always base your argument on sentiment, Whether you like it or not Kanu has more medal to show for playing football than Okocha and in the same way Rooney has more Medal than Alan Shearer not minding all Shearer's premier league goals

Sports › Re: Kanu Tops Nigeria's 50 Greatest Players by YoruIgbo(m): 10:03pm On Jun 22, 2011

Unfortunately performance are not based on effort, interest or will, performance is purely based on delivery and results, I'm sure Okocha himself will wish he had achieved what Kanu achieved in football. In 50 years to come if Okocha and Kanu's family decide to auction their medals grin

surely Kanu's family will come to Auction house with basket full of medals while Okocha's will come with few medal and some explanation about his dribbles ,

No be beans, whether 5 mins or 10 mins e no matter at all!! As a Gooner Kanu's hat trick against chelsea in the final fifteen minutes as we came from behind to inflict a memorable defeat on arch-rivals Chelsea will always have a place in my heart

Sports › Re: Kanu Tops Nigeria's 50 Greatest Players by YoruIgbo(m): 6:06pm On Jun 22, 2011

The two stars, Nwankwo Kanu and Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha, shone very brightly in their hey days. Both of them were without any doubt, top among their peers in Nigerian football and beyond. They were skilful, intelligent, and were players who made football look so easy and enjoyable.

But the question on the lips of most football followers now that Kanu has also retired from national football like Okocha is: 'Which between the two made a bigger impact on the field of play while in active football?'

Both Kanu and Okocha won the Olympic soccer gold, captained the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles, featured at the World Cups and of course, carved their names on the slabs of European clubs they played for.

The stars have since called time on their international career and the million-naira poser is: 'who between them made the bigger splash during their playing days.'

National team career
Okocha featured for Nigeria at the African Youth Championship in Mauritius in 1993, where the Flying Eagles crashed out in the semis. He was magical despite the team's premature exit at the championship and it was on the back of that appearance that Okocha earned a call-up to the Super Eagles.
Kanu was also in the squad to Mauritius, but he did not kick a ball. But he quickly put behind him that disappointment and teamed up with the Golden Eaglets to win the FIFA Under-17 World Cup in Japan in 1995.

Okocha made his full international debut before Kanu and would go on to play a vital role as Nigeria won her second Nations Cup trophy in Tunisia in 1994 and also qualified for her maiden World Cup outing the same year. Kanu led Nigeria to win an historic Olympic football gold two years later with Okocha, three years his senior, very much part of the team.

Both players featured in three World Cups. Okocha was at the 1994, 1998 and 2002 Mundial, while Kanu played at the 1998, 2002 and 2010 editions. Nigeria's best results at the World Cup were achieved in 1994 and 1998 when the Eagles reached the second round of the tournament, meaning that Okocha enjoyed a more successful run on the biggest football platform than Kanu.

Kanu, though now is on record as the joint most capped Nigerian player along with the late Muda Lawal with 86 caps. Okocha played 73 times for the country. Though Kanu critics would say that unlike Okocha, he did not quit the national team when the ovation was loudest up to the point that a player in his mould only enjoyed a very insignificant role at both the 2010 Nations Cup and World Cup.

Club career
Without any doubt, Kanu, popularly called Papilo, enjoyed a more fulfilling career at club level than Okocha, who is known as 'Jay Jay'. He defied personal adversity to win the biggest piece of silverware on offer in Europe, the European Champions Cup (now the UEFA Champions League) with Ajax Amsterdam.

He also won the English Premier League crown with Arsenal twice, three FA Cup winners' medals, two with Arsenal and once with Portsmouth. He won the Nigeria Premier League diadem with Iwuanyanwu Nationale (now Heartland FC) of Owerri, as well as three Dutch League titles, among other honours.
The highlight of Okocha's club career was in 2004, when Bolton was beaten in the League Cup final, as he did not win anything of note with his other clubs like Paris Saint-Germain, Entracht Frankfurt and Fenerbache, all in Europe.

Individual honours
Kanu was picked as Africa's best player by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) twice in 1996 and 1999, but Okocha was never named for the award even though he came within a whisker of this individual accolade in 1998.

However, Okocha was named the BBC African Footballer of the Year in 2004 and 2005.
Kanu was also named by the Nigerian government as one of the 50 most influential citizens during the country's Golden Jubilee Independence celebrations in October last year. There was no mention of Okocha.

Off the pitch
Kanu has given back to the community through his Heart Foundation, which assists children with heart problems. Both players have also invested heavily in the Nigerian economy through their various businesses. As a Lagos businessman, Okocha, through his Jay Jay Group, has more than 100 Nigerians in its employ.

Sports › Re: WHO IS MOST DECORATED -KANU OR ETOO??? by YoruIgbo(m): 3:15am On Jun 22, 2011

Well if you look at it from one angle the answer is Kanu but if you look at it from another angle the answer is Eto'o but if you look at it from the center it's neither Kanu nor Eto'o grin

Most Decorated sound like past tense grin

because Kalu is now past tense and since Eto'o is still playing, he lies in the present continuous, Decorated will now change to Decorating grin

But my guy Eto'o give Kalu serious Gap!! Comparing Eto'o and Kalu is like comparing Army and Boys Scout grin

Kanu's endorsements ?? NONE that shows his popularity

Okocha's endorsement Pepsi, Samsung, puma oh common we are talking about who is more marketable

Global football popularity and I think Kanu had some endorsement benefits too, Well I understand that people holds different opinion when it comes to various matters. I am yet to see any concrete point that can change my mind towards Jay Jay even though I enjoy his dribbling skills but Kanu's shoulder faking is still one of the best in the world

Sports › Re: Kanu Tops Nigeria's 50 Greatest Players by YoruIgbo(m): 11:47pm On Jun 21, 2011

Well in my view, if we plot a table with rating, Kanu will surely finish above Jay Jay. Kanu is more popular than Jay Jay in world football and I am not very convinced that Jay Jay should go above Kanu who has more medal in football and even on 2 occasion rated as the best African player and I am very sure Jay Jay was there when Kanu won the African Football king twice

*Kanu had more club medals than Okocha

*Okocha has an international medal at the senior level Kanu has none

*Goals:- well one is a midfielder and the other is a striker
80 goals is still a good return for a midfielder but 81 goals for a striker in 17 years is a disgrace (that's an average of 5 goals each season)

*Okocha scored more goals for the national team than Kanu and despite the fact that Jay Jay is a midfielder

*Okocha earned more money than kanu could ever dream of

*Kanu played for bigger clubs than Okocha

*Okocha played more games at both the nations cup and world cup than Kanu

Quick correction bros, Kanu's total goals is 96 grin

Guys, the only way you can confirm who is a rich man is simple by asset and cash!!! is not but I had this before or I will get this in future or the type of business you are doing or do

When it comes to football players, we use medals, number of goals scored at highest level, salary earned, club you are playing or played for, world cup and champions league appearance, world footballer of the year medals

Can someone Analyse this for both Kanu and Okocha? or Henry and Ronaldo? for me Ronaldo is slightly below Henry just because Ronaldo hasn't won a world cup yet but hopefully he will get there someday. Remember world cup is the biggest stage in football

Sagamite:
Using some mooronic awards or titles to make judgement instead of pure and clear talent and contribution to team is just stewpid.

So Thierry Henry is not a greater player than Christiano Ronaldo, Ruud Van Nisterooy and Marco Van Basten because he did not win as much titles and awards?

Worse still, people are applying the logic to a player that won it mostly from the bench cheering others on.

Utter fcking rubbish!

Mr Sagamite, Don't use this avenue to demonstrate your ignorance about judgement! They say exam is not the true test of knowledge but the best way to test knowledge is still by exam! I have read your comment over and over just to see if you have suggested any other or better way to judge who is better between Kanu and okocha but can't find it, Please can someone help me check Sagamite comment?
Does it matter whether Kanu comes from bench to win title? Coaches are allowed to use sub and we call some subs 'super sub' and Kanu belong to that category and any coach that has no super sub is not a good coach.
I will prefer to be coming off the bench in Barca and make a good impression than play 90 mins in Enugu Rangers or even 90 mins in Bolton Wanderers

EPL is far better.

The average top EPL team will flog the average top Bundesliga team.

The average mid EPL team will flog the average mid Bundesliga team.

The average bottom EPL team will flog the average bottom Bundesliga team.

No sentiments, no worro worro arguments. EPL is superior.

JJ is regarded as a phenomenal legend in Bolton and Fenebarche! The fulcrum and star of the team. One of the best ever for their club.

You will not find any team Kanu is regarded as a phenomenal legend in. They will remember him as the nice good player that came off the bench most times with a smile and some one or two times did magic.

Simples! Jay Jay is better. According to YOU, he can perform miracles Kanu cannot. Now compare Kanu to Yekini.

According to your logic, something is wrong with Bebeto, Dunga, Enyeama, Mustapha Hadji, Odemwingie, Juninho Paulista, Alan Shearer, Paul Gascoigne, Tony Yeboah, Lucas Radebe, Finidi George.

They are all shyt.

To me, they are not!

Cretin, Shut up!

I think the problem has to do with attitude. He's more of a business man than a coach and the best players are getting fustrated. I dont blame them at all, if I were in their shoes I would leave except he changes.

Same applies to fabragas he used him because there was no one else available and because he is stingy he thought why not use this cheap article grin

We all know that truth is bitter and the truth here is Wenger is rubbish and needs to go but you can't blame him because if you were in his shoes and have a board that set very low standard for you, I guess you will stay on and earn cheap living.

Once again there is no youth policy in Arsenal!!! We are a buying club and we only sell players when they become expensive and use cheap youth as a replacement, so the policy here is cheap article!
Wenger likes to do everything possible to make extra £££, for example, he will engineer replays in FA Cups to ensure extra income, he has succeeded in his quest to come 4th so he can play some cheap qualifiers and make extra £££ grin
