Chelsea and Madrid everytime shey diz people no wan rest....

Funnily, we Chelsea-Madrid had never happened in the UCL until 3 seasons ago when Chelsea qualified. Now, we have met 3 times in a row. Crazy.

GeneralPulal:

Don’t dull..
Did you forget their last meeting? Even Madrid won’t be laughing

Chelsea got everything to tackle Madrid!

No mind them, thinking playing Chelsea is the same thing as playing Elche. In the last 4 Chelsea-Madrid tie, Chelsea have won 2, drawn 1, and lost 1. Madrid have a lowly 14% win rate against Chelsea in Europe. We have everything to tackle Madrid. We just need our coach to be in his A-game.

As a Chelsea fan, the only team I wanted to avoid was the City simply because we play in the same league - always a tricky situation that since they are pressing our neck recently.

Real Madrid will be hard. Very hard. But definitely not unbeatable. Our biggest problem is that our coach has not been able to make us play cohesively as a unit. We are too individualistic as a team. The back and forth games against Dortmund must be avoided at all cost, otherwise, Real will kill us!

I don't know what will happen, but Vinicius Jr. will realise, once again, that playing against Reece James is next level shiit. He won't get any joy against James-Fofana in that left hand side.

Can't fuckiing wait. #UCL

A game worth getting bitten for

Damn.

Of course they did it’s because they have interests in Him if he should hypothetically kick the bucket they will still retain power. I believe they are trying to replay the events that put Jonathan in power during yaradua’s but that’s my personal opinion though you don’t have to see it as I see it .

Everybody can hypothetically kick the bucket. What are you saying? They could have voted their son in Atiku if they really wanted the presidency.

My bet is that they choose their preferred option. Simple.

AlphaAlex:
Wike just exposed the hypocrisy of the north in terms of Fairness, Hate him or love him Wike is a politician that knows the ins and outs of politics in Nigeria. The north is messed up with their ideology of maintaining a strong grip on power but it is what it is only fate will decide

Didn't the north vote for Tinubu? How would he win without Northern votes?

sharone21:


I don't have time to argue with your type as I already know why u side the so called victim.

You can name my type - the bitter poor Nigerians who wishes ill fortune befall the rich Nigerians.

Both are guilty .... Even if EK and family are the ones actually on trial....

We can leave the court to decide who's guilty or not. However, the accusations of backbiting or deceit you levied on the boy is not in the same stratosphere in seriousness as something as organ harvesting.

Like you highlighted, we should focus on who's on trial here...

Even Rich dad, poor dad Robert Kiyosaki has long helped us see how the poor reason when still in that state....

If the poor don't like the rich, is it the Nigerian elites that have abundance love for the poor? I'm sure Kiyosaki wouldn't dare draw his poor-rich dynamics if he were to live under Nigerian politicians.

Backstabbing has never helped anyone as the deal with the 21 yr old didn't sail through so at least he was free to go back and should be happy that no rich man would be saving his daughter's life with his( poor boy's) kidney.... But instead of bobo to sope, he chose to go cry to the Police instead of looking for the nearest airport to get home.

I'm sure it has been written several times that the doctors called off the surgery when it became clear the boy didn't know why he was in the hospital. Truly elite societies report foul play. They don't protect criminals. Something EK and his likes refused to promote in their country because they may need poor people's kidney from time to time.

Even if you don't like EK, but at least don't tell me u can't even see that this street boy is lying.... How I wish he was also on trial and a good LIE DETECTOR was placed to verify his claims.

You see, this line of argument is what we all shouldn't give voice to. What we should never entertain. Because we start making excuses, start focusing on the wrong person, start focusing on the wrong case. And we start balancing two different foul play against each other. And piting the Rich against the Poor in a power struggle. That's how the 'BIG MEN' gets off the hook, and the case gets buried forever in Nigeria.

@bolded. I don't know EK personally. So the question of love-hate is a non starter - can't hate or like who I don't have direct dealings. Besides, my hate-love shouldn't and wouldn't change the facts of the case.

It is well Sha.... And u see no wrong supporting a backstabbing youth who could grow older and do worse things ....

You cannot be 100% certain that the boy is snitching against EK. Neither I'm 100% certain that EK is guilty as charge. Why? We both are not privy to their agreements.

I'm happy to allow the courts decide. I wonder if the boy will be questioned by EK's defence council, the picture will become clearer as the case progress.

That's why it's not advisable to comment officially on a case that's already in court - new Revelations can appear and fool the best of us.

This 21 yr old is as evil as Ek and I pray karma doesn't catch up with him later in life with same health problem maybe with an ONLY daughter.

Hehe . Read immediate paragraph above again.

Besides, I thought your (rich) type don't wish Karmas on people?

I find it hilarious they want to discontinue publicly recounting the votes. Instead, they promised to announce the (winner) when the process (rigging) has been completed

casualobserver:
Senate President should ideally go to SS, Deputy to NC (both Christians), Speaker to NW (muslim), deputy speaker to SE (Christian)

that way we have 3 muslims and 3 christians in presidency, senate and house and all regions are represented...

Very thoughtful! Really balanced

ProtonX:
Not saying what he did was right. It wasn't at all.5 But the Prosecutor's line of argument feels like racial bias. The yt people in the UK feed off these things once an opportunity presents itself.

Please, enlightenment us: explain the racial undertone in those questions asked.

sharone21:
EK made mistakes eg not testing for kidney's compatibility and giving the boy some extras apart from the fact that he at least now has a stamped passport with UK visa and possibly 'some' connection which may act as good will from EK in the future or from some stranger.

I really pity EK's daughter...

The bashing on Nairaland on EK who is just a father desperately seeking the good health/ recovery of his daughter and who feels there is alternative by paying for it.... Though as a Lawyer himself, he should have known the consequences.... But which person would you take from Africa who isn't a family member that will do that for FREE as expected by UK's law?

The poor usually wish ill fated things befall the rich so they be at par especially if such a one is an allegedly corrupt politician.

The 21 year old guy is clearly a backstabber and backstabbers don't end well even when they have those hailing them.... Desperation to be in UK by all means is the cause of all this katakata.

Equipping our hospitals here would have saved EK all these stress.

People should know the laws of countries before they seek medical tourism in such countries.

Of all the good reasons why Nigerians should enjoy world-class healthcare in their country, it's absolutely appalling that exploiters and oppressors like Ekweremadu getting away with their crimes is one of them you could think of.

Also, it's obvious you don't think the laws against trafficking and organ harvesting is not as stringent in Nigeria compared to the UK. Well, that's only because there are people like you who would look for excuses to blame the victim and exonerate the perpetrators like you have done in your write-up.

I miss her.
I Can't wait for Yellowstone to continue from their mid season break.
One of my best series ever.

You know, due to scheduling issues, there's talk of Kevin Costner (John Dutton) leaving. So, the showrunners are considering ending John Dutton story arc with the last few episodes of season 5.

However, they still want to continue the show with majority of the present main cast with Matthew McConaughey drafted in as new lead.

That'd be great!!!

Atiku, you lie. Maurice Iwu INEC was the worst.

Lol na una know....

Naso. This na also my biggest problem. I hate unnecessary stress and this naira scarcity react my side too much.

I'm not here to comment on the subject matter but for a professional advice


Please I did a pre-interview (via telephone call) with one Recruiter on Monday 27/02/23 and the recruiter was happy with the way I responded to all questions been asked, and said she'll be expecting a mail in respect to the actual interview, but till now 02/03/23, I have been checking my mail each millisecond

Please should I call the recruiter as I saved the number after the call or I should wait more


Please I need a professional advice.

Call.

No problem if you follow up with the recruiter and put your candidacy at the front of their minds. Some recruiters like to know you're keen for the job.

Stumble upon the interview on Arise TV. I must say, the man was more bitter than Obi and Atiku who lost the election. He wouldn't even entertain the possibility where Tinubu remains the president after the court cases.

If you want to see a suppose elder statesman speak without a tiny bit objectivity and maturity, that's your watch.

Bit cheeky and quite insensitive to speak openly about reconciliation if somebody is disputing an election. APC should stay out of aggrieved party's business.

Court cases go yappa be that. This one every Tom, Dick, and Harry dey claim winner. Na KwanKwaso remain to complete the three musketeers 😂.

But honestly, the grossly ineffective and inefficient INEC have some major accountability questions to answer to the Nigerian people. The technical and technological challenges they faced apparently stems from kindergarten preparations and projections.

We should be having elections in this country that is largely incontestable. You simply can't rely on another Nigerian to do their job.

unclejb2:
If you are an INEC official SPO PO etc.... Listen carefully

On Saturday, If you fail to upload results at the polling units, we would lynch and mob you.

Tell your superiors.

Don't say that you were not warned.

@Dss, @police, @Army, an election thug quoted...

I had no horse but I would have been cautiously optimistic regardless of whoever emerges the winner. Though, the smart bet was always on Tinubu to win...

Congratulations to Asiwaju. Personally, I like people who are consistent and predictable. Tinubu has built a political base with which he has used to sponsor others to greater heights. In many ways, he has been a selfless party man.

Nothing wrong in a man benefitting from a polical family he has instrumentally built for more than 20 years.

We hope you benefit Nigeria Mr. President Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Election will be declared inconclusive and a re-run between the two highest aspirants who scored the highest votes will be called

Where would the re-run happen and how can PDP, in this instance, possibly win the election?

Sonfethopia:



A Channels TV visitor said other wise o.so we don't know yet.

Actually, let me even wonder in that reality; supposing that's true (the 25% requirements in FCT), since APC would be the winner ordinarily, what would now happen?

johannu:


thebestprice is trying to make sense of what the law stipulates; that's how intelligent people reason, unlike you saying "Why must a candidate score 25% in FCT? Is the land gold-plated or the people angels"

When a man keeps asking a question that has been reasonably treated with many conventionally intelligent answers, it's folly to think one more conventional answer is what's needed to do the trick.

I decided to put the questioner in the shoes of the mind state of the intelligent people who wrote the constitution. Does it seem reasonable, fair and just to accord the FCT and its people special status by mandating candidates to earned 25% of the votes in an election before they can be elected president?

When intelligent people answer the above question, they immediately realize whether the chatter going round is even worth discussing or not. Unless of course, the obvious answer is not the outcome they wish.

Sonfethopia:


Not that clip , a new one live interview today. I know d one u r talking of


Its not it.

Okay, haven't seen the new one. And frankly, won't bother to see it because it's a non-issue.

Even the opposition political parties are not arguing towards that direction at all.

Sonfethopia:



It was said on arise news the person needs 25 in fct just today by 7 pm. Let's wait for inec

I've seen that clip. That former Inec commissioner was talking rubbish. And Arise TV are not the best station for unbiased reportage, from the little I've seen on that station. They have a way of pandering to what their audiences want to hear. No serious and professional station would allow someone like that give out false interpretation of something that is not in doubt.

Have you seen any other serious platform or opposition play that 25% narrative?

TriCee:
Too many errors.
Those are actually unacceptable errors. These guys need to do better.
INEC continues with results announcement with all these irregularities...nawao

Inec made no error here. Rather, it was the PDP chairman that quoted error-prone news from social media. The source of the error, cable, have already owned up to the mistake.

This are the kind of kindergarten moves that will not allow anybody believe the accusations from aggrieved parties.

No wonder the dude is a FORMER INEC commissioner. 25% a must in FCT? Sake of say the land they drip with honey or the people of Abuja no dey piss?

The Arise TV knows how to stroke the mendula of certain class of people with questionable IQ. If I was one of those presenters, I'd be ashamed to be listening to that coming from a suppose INEC commissioner.

Imagine saying someone can't win elections in Nigeria if Abuja people didn't vote for them? Nonsense.

MichaelSokoto:

Not really!

na there d seat of power dey!

Say u are loved by every other state apart from Sokoto ppl dat hate u, and sokoto is where u are supposed to be ruling from... hw u wan take last just one night!

Ko possible naa!
em Sokotolites dem go use u do suya b4 daybreak thereby causing a leadership lacuna naa!

I don't know if you're serious but this is absolutely absurd.

The fact of the matte is it's not a requirement to get 25% in Abuja. Otherwise, we could as well give presidents to only people who are acceptable in the eyes of Abuja locales.

madapcmod:


If you have rigging evidence against LP, bring it forth at the tribunal.

The evidence of rigging against APC in this election is massive.

Mind you, the BVAS and social media have made evidence presentation easier compared to the era of PDP where social media evidence was not rife.

Don't try to be smart by half. APC and INEC rigged this election massively for APC , the evidences are all over.

I don't gather evidences for presentation at a tribunal because I don't work for the APC. I only entertain such news to balance the narrative.

I still maintained that there are enough evidences of malpractices conducted by the popular parties in this election. The fact the APC seem to cry the least at the moment is because they believe they're winning. I've never seen a winning party contesting the election results in a court or worry about foul play.


I have said this before, there are some states I'm surprised about the performance of APC, Rivers in particular. But I'm also surprised by the performance of opposition parties in traditional APC states with powerful governors.

I have no horse in the race but I want the eventual winner to emerge from a largely free and fair election.

thebestprice:

No sir .
So let's do the maths

⅔ x 36= 24 states ..

The FCT stands on its own ..

If you get 25% in 24 states And miss out on FCT ;automatically disqualifies you from Aso rock

Does that makes sense to you? Why must a candidate score 25% in FCT? Is the land gold-plated or the people angels?

madapcmod:
They don't know Obi.

This same scenario happend in Anambra when PDP rigged in Ngige against Obi of APGA that won the election.

He went to court with every tenable evidence and won.

The state assembly populated by PDP impeached him wrongly bc he was not sharing money, and swore in his deputy Dame Virgy Etiaba as Governor, he went to court and the impeachment was upturned

When he was just one year in office, INEC conducted election and Andy UBA was declared winner, Obi then went to court and court declared his tenure has not ended the was returned.

Watch out for evidence packed court drama in the coming days. I trust Obi when it comes to presenting evidence

Those elections where conducted during the period when PDP's machinations for electoral fraud where still in full force. Elections has sinced move forward from then. No governorship elections have been overturned on the basis of rigging in recent times. I simply don't see the court with the temerity to disrupt any recent presidential election conducted by INEC in Nigeria.

I believe there are pockets of rigging in these elections by ALL candidates in ALL regions. There are enough accusations to go around.

The FCT is treated as a state. It makes no sense to make the 25% requirements a MUST for the FCT. Because that'd make the FCT and its people have special status and that's not the case.
