I think its high time we Nigerians stop fooling ourselves into believing dat all is well in Nigeria. Everyone in Nigeria knows how much a certain people, the ibos are detested by other tribes. For whatever reasons. It has reached to a point where d ibos feel very unwelcome in their own country. Just think of any tribe in Nigeria, Iwill tell u how much they hate the ibos.
    Point is this, like or not, one day.biafra flag will be hoisted on high n the nigeria president will be among the dignutries that will.grace.the.occassion., that is ....if he peacefully release those 11 wise n noble statesmen n CALL 4 EARLY REFFERANDUM FOR BIAFRA INDEPNDENCE. Otherwise, trust me the Biafra uprising will be more deadly than the Boko haram.  

Toufiaqua, what an ungrateful generation.  it is very unbelievable the way our people talk. It is evident that we have problem of short memory. isnt it  strange that the Keshi who was regarded as the biggest boss as far as african indigenous national team coaches is concerned, that same keshi u people r condemning? is that the best way to treat a man who has helped his country not only to become current African football champions after so many years of trophy drought, he also took nigeria to 2nd round in WC? Shouldnt  it hv been more prudent for us to be patient till we have finished our qualifying matches which has only gone half way.  shouldnt it hv been more prudent for us all to pray that our beloved super eagles return to their great form  n win their next three remaining qualification matches? take it frm me, all u people who r calling for the head of Keshi u will soon eat ur humble pies n hide ur faces in shame when we finally make it to Maroc. Leave Keshi do what he is paid to do.He has a track record as one of the world class coaches. We r proud to hv an indigenous coach. Long live Nigeria, long live Super eagles, n coach Keshi.

 To err is human. Only God is infallible. I pray God to forgive and see Pst Oyakhilome through in this hour of difficulty, in Jesus name. To all true xtians all over the world, this not a triumph of the devil and our numerous accusers over one of the most powerful men of God in our generation. It is rather a moment of sober reflection of the chosen n the called. Let he who feels that he stand take heed, coz the devil our enemy is very crafty  n clever, but GOD is greater than all.

I am truly alarmed to see how bad some of our  fellow Nigerians are especially when it comes to insulting and abusing our leaders. I think the most urgent issue we have in Nigeria may probably not be the Boko Haram, but some of the educated illiterates among us. Some of us do not know how to express our thought and personal opinions in a civilized way. Unconditionally God orders us to have respect for our leaders, my dear friend, i m sure u r making a good point as u express ur concern abt the Boko Haram issue, but i m not sure that the way u put ur words is the best of ways to do that. u should put it in way as to advise the leaders constructively the way out of the prbl. This forum is not meant to abuse ur leaders, show them some respect. They could be ur father, uncle, elder brother even ur mother. They r not there to seek for their family welf fare, but for more than 179 million people. When next u think of insulting ur leaders thru a medium like this, remember that the whole world is ur audience. What image do u wish for ur dearly beloved country? How do u want the whole world to see Nigeria?

It must be admitted that there is no perfect team as far as AFCON 2013 is concerned. Every team have their challenges. With the endemic problem of faulty passes the Super Chickens, nay, Super Eagles of Nigeria is clearly not soo super as some of us have wished.

Now in the light of the circle of draws we have been contending with in ur last two matches, ( Burkina Faso and with Zambia ). Please give us your candid assessment of our dear super Eagles' performance so far in the on going AFCON 2013. Do you think that Nigerians should be hopeful of their darling team making it thru at least to the quarter final ?

GODFREY RECORD SHLD BE BROKEN N NOT MULLERS B4 MESSI SHLD BE HONOURED THATS TRUE. BUT WHO IS TO BLAME, FIFA OR THE ZAMBIANS WHO BELIEVE STRONGLY ON ORAL TRADITION OF PASSING INFOS FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER? GREAT LESSON FOR AFRICA....

GUD SAMARITAN. DIS IS THE TYPE OF PEOPLE THAT UNDERSTANDS THIS LIFE BETTER. DIS SHOWS THAT IN SPITE OF OYIBO DOUBLE STANDARDS AND HYPOCRISY, U CAN STILL GET SOME WHO HAVE CONSCIENCE AND GOD-LIKE MIND. HIS REWARD MAY NOT BE FROM MAN BUT FROM HIS CONSCIENCE AND AND OF COURSE FROM GOD.

I THINK WE NEED TO EXERCISE CAUTION ON  HOW WE TAKE THE GOSSIPS IN THIS  MEDIUM, OBVIOUSLY IT IS EVIDENT THAT THE POSTER HAS A FAIRLY SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE OF MRS FOLORUNSHOS ASSETS AND INVESTMENTS. BUT THERE IS NOTHING TO CONVINCE ANY ONE THAT HE ALSO HAS SOME LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE ASSETS AND INVESTMENTS OF WIN OPRAH. SO I REFUSE TO  BE FOOLED AND CERTAINLY CANT BE MISLED BY HIS UNSUBSTANTIATED POSTINGS. EXCUSE ME......

Nigeria is too large with too many tribe's and culture,thats a huge problem.

GUY, WE NEED TO TELL OURSELF THE TRUTH, IS NIGERIA LARGER THAN INDIA, USA OR EVEN INDONESIA?

HER NAME IS CHIOMA. SHE HAPPENS TO BE THE ONLY SPORTS WOMAN WHO HAS BROUGHT THE GREATEST OLYMPIC MEDAL HONOUR TO OUR DEAR COUNTRY NAIJA. DO U THINK THAT NIGERIA HAS REALLY APPRECIATED CHIOMA AJUNWA THE WAY SHE OUGHT TO BE APPRECIATED?

We need to know how to appreciate what we have b4 expecting to get the benefits of it. those who are asking for the head of okhagbere need to make a rethink. the Olympic medal race did not start in London. if Okhagbere has been able to reach where she arrived b4 crashing she need to be encouraged instead of asking for her head. thank God that we have come thus far, then ask Him to give us another CHIOMA AJUNWA. many of us do not even know that Chioma is the only individual Olympic gold medalist that Naija has ever produced. DO U THINK THAT NIGERIA HAS REALLY APPRECIATED CHIOMA AJUNWA THE WAY SHE OUGHT TO BE APPRECIATED?

Pls don't ask for her head, she has done her best. Instead encourage her, after all she made us proud at the earlier stages of the competition. Okhagbere thank u for taking our country's name to the London Olympic. God bless u.

thats interesting

   AISHATUA or whatever you call yourself, its unfortunate that people like you are not RELEVANT in a social forum like this. Nigeria is at the crossroads as she is on the brink of disintegration due to tribal, religious and social INTOLLERANCES which intend to reduce the nation{if it has not done so already] to a failed state. Inflammatory write ups like yours is a total even more disgraceful and harmful to Nigeria than fraud related crime out of the shores of Nigeria. what you do not understand is that this type of social, tribal, and religious intolerance is actually reaping its harvests all over the country in high level of corruption based on IM, boko haram problems, biafra issues, Niger delta crisis, many social injustices, etc. which is costing Nigeria billions of Us dollars every day.  
   I THINK THIS FORUM IS MEAT FOR NIGERIA INTELLECTUALS AND YOUTHS WHO ARE IN A POSITION TO USE THIS MEDIUM TO TRY IN THEIR LITTLE QUOTA TO CORRECT THE ILLS THAT HAS BEEN PLAGUING THIS NATION SINCE INDEPENDENCE. WE PATRIOTIC NIGERIANS OWE IT A DUTY TO ENSURE THAT NIGERIA DREAM OF A UNITED HAPPY PEOPLE WHO HAVE RESPECT FOR ONE ANOTHER IRRESPECTIVE OF TRIBE, RELIGION OR IDEOLOGICAL DIFFERENCES. WE DREAM OF A NIGERIA WHERE THERE IS NO ROOM FOR IGBO HATERS OR YORUBA, HAUSA, IBIBIO, FULANI, OGONI, ETC HATERS. A NIGERIA WHERE EVERY CITIZEN HAS  EQUAL OPPORTUNITY IN ALL ASPECT OF LIFE, WHERE JUSTICE AND FAIR PLAY PREVAIL. THAT'S WHY I MAKE BOLD TO SAY THAT AISHATUA IS BEING OLD FASHIONED AND NEED SOME KIND OF EDUCATION TO BUSH HER UP, SO THAT SHE WILL BE RELEVANT TO THE NEW MOVE IN NIGERIA., BCOS WHETHER THE ENEMIES OF PROGRESS LIKE IT OR NOT, WE ARE MOVING FORWARD... I LOVE MY COUNTRY NIGERIA, I LOVE OUR BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE, HIP HIP HIP  NIGERIA KWENU...

   FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO APPRECIATE THE NEW FOUND COURAGE OF MR CHARLES OHIKU. BUT FROM THE LOOK OF THINGS, I DON'T THINK HE IS NOT  MERITORIOUS OF HIS SOCIAL STANDING AS THE 'THE RED CROSS CHIEF'. A PERSONALITY OF HIS MAGNITUDE CANT BE ANYTHING SHORT OF MAN OF INTEGRITY. CONCEALING AND COLLABORATING TO ABATE THIS GRIEVOUS CRIME IS UNPARDONABLE. THE TRUTH HE HAS BEEN HIDING FOR 7 YEARS COULD NOT CEASE TO HUNT HIM THANK GOD FOR THE CONSCIENCE IN MAN.
     IT IS NOW LEFT FOR OUR GOVT TO ACT IMMEDIATELY. SINCE THE TRUTH HAS STARTED SEEING THE LIGHT OF THE DAY, WE ARE DESIROUS OF KNOWING ALL ABOUT THIS CASE.  HOW DO WE GO ABOUT THIS IS AS FOLLOWS....FROM THE KNOWN WE CAN GET TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE UNKNOWN. MR OHIKU NEED BE APPREHENDED IMMEDIATELY BY OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENTS. HE MUST LET US KNOW ALL THAT HE KNOW ABOUT THIS CRASH INCIDENCE, WHEN HE KNOW IT, HOW FAR DID HE GO IN CONCEALING AND ABATING THE CRIME, AND THE LAW OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA WILL TAKE ITS DUE COURSE. AS FOR THE REASONS AND HOW LONG HE WAS ABLE TO BURY THE TRUTH WE ALL ALREADY KNOW...OVER TO YOU MR PRESIDENT.

 NIGERIAN SUPER GREEN EAGLES  IS NOW AT THE 60TH POSITION IN THE FIFA RANKING  AS AT JULY 2012,  FROM 18TH IN 1993.  WE HAVE WATCHED HELPLESSLY WITH A LOT PAINS  FOR THIS LONG AS OUR DEAR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM HAVE CONTINUED TO GO DOWN THE DRAIN FROM GRACE TO GRASS.
    MERE QUALIFICATION FOR THE NATIONS CUP HAS BECOME A HERCULEAN UPHILL TASK. WE HAVE GAMBLED AND CONTINUE TO GAMBLE WITH THE ONLY THING THAT MAKE EVERY NIGERIAN FEEL SENSE OF PRIDE AND  AND SOURCE OF CONSOLATION AMIDST THE HECTIC SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHALLENGES OF OUR NATIONAL LIFE. FROM FOREIGN COACH TO INDIGENOUS COUCH- FROM SIASSIA TO KESHI, ONLY GOD KNOWS WHO WILL BE CALLED UP NEXT TO HANDLE OUR SICK EAGLE.
  I AM CONVINCED THAT NO MATTER THE NUMBER OF TIMES WE CHANGE COACHES, THE PROBLEM OF THE DISMAL PERFORMANCE OF NIGERIA S SENIOR FOOTBALL TEAM WILL PERSIST , UNLESS WE COME TO REALIZATION THAT THE FOOTBALL HAS EVOLVED, IT IS NO LONGER QUESTION OF FANCIFUL DISPLAY OF INDIVIDUAL TALENT AND SKILL THAT DISTINGUISH GREAT FOOTBALLERS OF THESE DAYS. LIONEL MESSI COULDN'T HAVE BEEN A HOUSE HOLD NAME TODAY IF NOT FOR HIS ABILITY TO PUT THE BALL BEHIND THE NET.
    SEVERAL COACHES HAVE COME AND GONE AFTER  BON FRE JO AND WESTAHOF, BUT NONE HAS GOT COMMITTED TO THE ISSUE OF HEAD HUNT FOR SCORERS WHICH WE BADLY NEED IN THE TEAM. THE HANDFUL OF SCORERS ARE NOT GIVEN ATTENTION AND GROOMED. ODEWNGE, YAKUBU, UCHE  AND SEVERAL OTHERS TOP SCORERS IN THEIR EUROPEAN CLUBS SHOULD BE GIVEN MORE ATTENTION. THERE MUST BE REASON WHY THEY DO NOT BANG IN GOALS WHEN THEY PLAY FOR OUR NATIONAL TEAM, LETS FIND OUT WHY, THEN SEEK FOR SOLUTION FOR IT. THEN, WHY ARE  PLAYERS LIKE SANNI EMMANUEL, STANLEY, AND OTHER HIDDEN TALENTED SCORERS BEING IGNORED WHILE OUR NATIONAL TEAM CONTINUE ON THEIR FALSE HOPE THAT THEY CAN MAKE POSITIVE IMPACT IN COMPETITIONS.
   WE SHOULD KNOW THAT FOOTBALL IS ALL ABOUT SCORING GOALS, AND IF WE CANT FIND THE SOLUTION TO THIS GOAL SCORING ABILITY IN OUR TEAM, WE WILL STILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR LONGER BEFORE WE CAN SEE OUR NATIONAL TEAM COME BACK TO THE DREAM NATIONAL TEAM OF THE QUALITY OF SUPER EAGLES OF 1993 AND 1994. GREEN EAGLES FANS DEMAND FOR PLAYERS WHO CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE, THE ONES THAT CAN BANG THE BALL INSIDE THE NET. WE ARE TIRED OF 0-0 DRAW MATCH RESULTS AND 1-0 SCORE LINES...AFTER ALL FOOTBALL IS ALL ABOUT SCORING GOALS...OR ABI NOBE SO...?

PRESIDENT ATTA MILLS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT, EVERY ACTION HAS A REACTION, A WISE MAN IS THE ONE THAT THINKS BEFORE ACTING, NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND. I AM SURE THAT HE REALIZES THAT THERE ARE GHANIANS IN NIGERIA AND OTHER ECOWAS COUNTRIES, WELL THEN LET HIM GO ON SEND NIGERIANS BACK TO THEIR HOME, THEN WATCH OUT FOR THE REACTION OF NAIJA GOVT. I TRUST MY PEOPLE.

ALL OVER THE WORLD APART FROM THE JEWS, NO COUNTRY HAS BEEN MISTREATED LIKE THE NIGERIANS IN DIASPORA. WHETHER IN AMERICA, EUROPE, ASIA,OR IN AFRICAN COUNTRIES AND EVEN THE ECOWAS SUB REGIONAL COUNTRIES. NIGERIAN HAVE BEEN CONTINUALLY BEEN GIVEN THE WORST OF THE TREATMENTS AS IF THERE IS NO FOREIGNERS IN OUR DEAR COUNTRY. FROM NORTH AFRICAN COUNTRIES, SOUTH AFRICA, ZIMBABWE, ANGOLA, CAMEROUN, TOGO, AND EVEN GHANA NIGERIANS ARE MISTREATED VARIOUS WAYS  BEYOND THE IMAGINATION OF THE NIGERIANS AT HOME. IN CASE U DONT KNOW IT YET, GHANA HAVE COME UP WITH A POLICY OF REPATRIATING FOREIGNERS WHO DO TRADING BUSINESS IN THEIR COUNTRY, AND THEIR MAIN TARGET IS THE NIGERIANS BCOS THE FOREIGNERS ARE DOING BETTER THAN THEIR CITIZENS IN TRADING BUSINESS.
   THEY SAY NIGERIA IS BAD AND CORRUPT, WELL THEN, TELL ME OF ONE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD THAT HAVE ONLY THE GOOD PEOPLE AND I WILL TELL THE COUNTRY THAT HAS ALREADY RESERVED THEIR TICKET TO HEAVEN. BUT IF ACTUALLY THERE IS NO ONE THAT IS RIGHTEOUS ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, WHY SHOULD SOME PEOPLE CONTINUE POINTING ACCUSING FINGERS ON OTHER PEOPLE. IT IS WRONG TO JUDGE ANOTHER PEOPLE WITH ONES OWN VALUE SYSTEM AND STANDARD SEEING THAT WE DO NOT COME FROM THE SAME SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT.
    ONE THING I HAVE DISCOVERED IN THE COURSE OF STUDY, I HAVE IDENTIFIED TWO REASONS WHY NIGERIAN ARE BEING ANTAGONIZED IN MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD. JEALOUSY,HATRED AND MEDIA BIAS. OF THE THREE I THINK THE LAST ONE, MEDIA BIAS PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE. THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH IN THE COUNTRY HAS BEEN OVERBLOWN. I HAVE NOT SEEN A PEOPLE WHO TALK BAD OF THEIR COUNTRY AND THEIR PEOPLE AS NIGERIANS. BY SO DOING THEY SELL THEMSELVES OVER TO THE FOREIGN COUNTRIES. AND WHAT THOSE AT HOME DON'T UNDERSTAND IS THE EXTENT OF DAMAGE THEIR CRITICAL VIEWS DO TO NIGEIRIANS IN DIASPORA. HOW NIGERIAN ARE PORTRAYED BY NIGERIANS DETERMINE HOW THEY ARE PERCEIVED, AND HOW THEY ARE PERCEIVED DETERMINE HOW THEY ARE TO BE TREATED BY FOREIGNERS, THE NEGATIVE IMAGE SOLD OUT BY NIGERIANS AT HOME ARE THEE TOOLS USED TO ATTACK THOSE OF US IN THE DIASPORA. INDIVIDUAL RECKLESS TALKS ABOUT OUR PEOPLE, MEDIA  CRITICISMS, OUR NOLLYWOOD PORTRAYAL AND OVER BLOWING OF EVILS IN OUR SOCIETY, THESE DO NOT HELP THE IMAGE OF NIGERIA AT ALL. IN THE COURSE OF MY TRAVEL LING IN THE WORLD, I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY PEOPLE AS CRITICAL OF THEIR COUNTRY AS NIGERIANS.
     WE SHOULD REALIZE THAT CORRUPTION, CRIME, SIN, IMMORALITY, SOCIAL MISBEHAVIOR ARE THE IDENTIFYING MARKS THAT IS COMMON TO  EVERY GENERATION,  PEOPLE, COMMUNITIES, COUNTRIES, AND SECTS. I AM NOT TRYING TO JUSTIFY CERTAIN ILLS IN OUR SOCIETY, RATHER I AM ONLY ASKING FOR A MORE REALISTIC APPROACH IN THE ISSUE OF SELF CONDEMNATION WHICH HAVE A VERY FAR REACHING NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON THE IMAGE OF OUR PEOPLE AND OUR COUNTRY. WE ARE AWARE OF THE DANGER OF USING BAD LANGUAGES ON A CHILD WHO WILL CERTAINLY GROW UP TO BE BAD.
  THERE IS URGENT NEED TO RE BRAND NIGERIA TODAY, LETS CHANGE OUR MINDSET, THEN OUR LANGUAGE. LETS TALK GOOD ABOUT OUR PEOPLE, OUR COUNTRY, AFTER ALL WHAT YOU CALL YOURSELF IS WHAT OTHERS WILL CALL YOU. I TRAVELED TO GHANA, AND I WAS AMAZED AT WHAT I SAW, NO ONE GHANAIAN  TALKED BAD OF THEIR PEOPLE, AT LEAST TO MY HEARING. SO OUTSIDERS WILL NOT HAVE ANY OCCASION TO TALK BAD ABOUT THEM. I THINK NIGERIA SHOULD TRY AND BORROW A LEAF FROM GHANA.
