beewhyfocs:Ok, who has interfered in the privatisation of NItel - It has been on since 2001 What has the government done with the free hand on that We were promised 6,000MW by Dec last year. GJ was the chairman of the committee We did not interfere, but no performance GJ himself promised a power sector masterplan He set the deadline, he has missed by 6weeks so every time the government takes a wromg decision, we all suffer BTW, he says he is a civilian president So nobody should ask us to shut up when we are unhappy Incidentally, does he listen to us? and you call this a revolution Legislators in his own party are daily asking for salary increase while people are starving Where are the saints that would sanitise our football system Most of the people that are coming in are corrupt This is the evidence that we require to nail NFF without attracting FIFA ban http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/mar/18/glenn-hoddle-nigeria-police-investigation Glenn Hoddle's corruption allegations over Nigeria job lead to inquiry What became of this? |

Princek12: Which move has ever worked since 1960 of Nigerian independence? It is Cameroon and Senegal that has made it to quarter final in Africa and now Ghana enroute to semi final. Where has Nigeria gotten to? Why cant there be a change? What Jonathan has done may not be the solution but within me I feel that is the best way to go, if carried out properly and thoroughly. Remember, Nigeria is the most populous black nation in the whole world and do you think that we have any reason for not producing the best soccer players to conquer the world of soccer? Take a look at the brazilian team that have won the cup many times, most of their players are blacks. I dont think that those blacks are different from Nigerian blacks. |

ofcos, dis situation is quite complicated. I agree that Mr President should not ban the Super Eagles, even 4 one day, not to talk of 2 years. But maybe the press has not been able to put it well to us in the proper perspective. Or just maybe his advisers don't understand what FIFA stands for? But looking at it clinically, one will come to see that the President is not banning the Super Eagles for their below performance in the ongoing World Cup. His action is premised upon the high level of corruption that is going on within the football house. Sani Lulu & his cohorts live on the FIFA statutes to perpetuate evils. Has it occured to anyone of us condenming the President's act that FIFA statutes provides a platform where a country is "BLESSED" with 2 Presidents. In our own case, SANI LULU & GOODLUCK. The stance of FIFA means no one can question/querry SANI LULU. Going a step further, FIFA's annual grant to members association is meant to develop the game in that particular domain. But how much of the game is being developed in Nigeria. This is sad! I know FIFA has got eyes to see all these, or is FIFA not bothered to know what her annual grant of $250,000 is used for? (Though I learnt FIFA have asked the Nigerian Government to produce document indicting the NFF men of corruption). Are we to talk of the number of souls (innocent football fans) that the activities of our football authority has killed over the years, with their failure to do what THEY know is right? Is FIFA happy about these death? Following our achievement of 1994, is our football suppose to grow or retard? You know the answer, ofcos. If it's true that FIFA have so directed we produce document indicting the NFF men of corruption, then Mr. President should please rescind his decision, and go ahead with his probe of our football house. Once they are indicted, let us submit the proof(s) to FIFA and let's wait on them (FIFA). Finally, one thing I know is that AMOS ADAMU will want to use his position as a member of FIFA committee to scuttle FIFA's action because the men in question worship him as their god. Don't be surprise how much thousand of the FIFA largesse goes to him from the $250,000. Don't be surprise! I await what are to be revealed and realised. In Nigeria I BELIEVE. God bless Nigeria. |

I dont think he his a megalomaniac. He is just been dumb like many Nigerians like him. A sizeable number of people on this forum have actually suggested a whole lot of ways the "minister of sport" meaning the Government could have handled the matter cleverly. We seems not to learn in that country. Ever since I saw his interview with Christiane Amanpour, I have not been so enthusiastic about him. Goodluck Jonathan is a no brainer I am afraid. And i hope he rethinks his decision. |

so what has changed? |

Actually Goodluck has played a very good machiavellian game. His pronouncements scared NFF to impeaching Lulu, Ogunjobi and the vice-president. The only person left is Ojo-Oba who proclaimed that SiaSia will be Super Eagles manager over his dead body. As I understand, EFCC are also currently hounding him. So I say kudos to Goodluck Jonathan. It was an effective political manouvre and the end justifies the means. |

Ibime: As long as they are not replaced with another set of crooks and a board that satisfies ethnic jingoistic tendencies but fails on ability and sincere intents for the game. Else the whole political manouvre would have been short sighted and mysterious. |
