Thoughts??

Best choice considering all the pretenders they have been flirting with.

benji93:
I was clear. Your initial claim was that the dynamics of respect in the Japanese culture has no social hierarchy as opposed to ours and i argued that that was a misinformation. Their dynamics of respect in fact has social hierarchy because the younger stoop further down and for much longer as a show of respect towards the elderly and those in positions of authority. This fits into the definition of a social hierarchy.

"Japanese have a culture of respect that predates its modern state economy" as you later claimed is a new claim you are introducing, without addressing my rebuttal which is that the Japanese society's dynamics of respect has a hierarchical dimension to it. Don't muddle everything up.

Joebie:
Who are ethnic natives of America?

Fifa really need to look into the issue inorder to be fair to other footballing nations that’s doesn’t hv the luxury of immigrant kids in their team

The French, Dutch n English teams re the worst 🤣🤣

Jefersoun:

Don't mind this guys, they just want to defend evil. What Osimhen did was totally wrong even if there was video evidence of finidi saying such things. Osimhen could have dismissed the allegation politely or keep mute. Majority of Nigerians knows is unwavering commitment to super eagles. We also forgot that finidi was also in a bad state of mind due to the bad results he got that cost him his job and dent is coaching career. And some of us felt the boys didn't pour out their minds to play for him. So how do you expect finidi to come out and defend any player in such state of mind?
You guys should think about it na.

So because he was in a bad state of mind, he had to unverify-ably alleged d most dedicated player of the SE. Due to his bed state of mind why didn't he jumped to the river that would have done his ministry a better cause.

I try to ignore this but I really can't. Will you guys just stop lying?

Every verifiable report available already proves Finidi never made the statement. Like even Victor now knows Finidi didn't. Why do you continually perpetuate a lie than never happened. I don't even mind you defending Victor's behaviour but don't premise it on a lie.

He thought he said it and reacted but has since.learnt it wasn't the case. Every press man worth is salt across Nigeria has already debunked the report even journalists who are very pro-osimhen aren't perpetuating this lie. They all know Finidi never said it. Let's stop spreading falsehood.

Mujtahida:

I simply believe that it is right for native people to represent themselves. Where's the beauty of the competition? It's like AFCON in Europe. Let Europeans do the Euro and AFCON for Africans.

If it is America, its okay for blacks to cover the ground due to the history of that country or if there are one or two blacks in an European team but to have the whole team dominated by black people is fraud of a certain kind.

Lest I be interpreted as anti black. No. I'd say the same thing if the Japanese team is dominated by white people.

This idea that just because a person's parents emigrate to a country, give birth in that country, fiam their children now become natives is a fraud in the same category as the trans agenda when a woman says she's a man or vice versa.

So Saka is an English man now? Odiegwu

humility33:


Not even about finidi saying or not saying it

That guy insulted super eagles fans

Without the fans there will be no footballers

Alex fergusson once told evra and Co this.

No matter what in football you don't disrespect or insult fans

This is the depths of bigotry and retrogressive ignorant thinking.

The USA was founded on immigration should we call the native Indians who barely constitute 3% of the total population. Therefore native Indians should be the only ones to represent the USA in the Olympics, National football team, basketball, American football, etc .

UK 🇬🇧 had emerged from immigration across the entire European continent predominantly. So who are the true indegenious English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish people of the UK 🇬🇧❓❓

Do you know that the Oba of Lagos gets his staff of office from the Oba of Benin ❓Do you know the people of Onitsha trace thier ancestry from Ile-ife.

Do you know the original inhabitants of Jamaica where the Taino Indians who constitutes 0.5% of the population compared to 93% who are of African descent.

Do you know Black Tudors existed in England (1485-1603) we have Black 🖤 African in the courts of King Henry Vlll and even before that . Parts of Spain was conquered by the Africa origin Moors that was in 711AD.

This your narrative is disgraceful comes from the depths of degenerative thinking 💬 it's not how to move forwards.

It's reflective of divisive conflicting geriatric incompetent political ideology that pervades our society today.

Instead of looking for competency merit and capacity holding on to that that will create progression you hold on to what will DIVIDE ➗ US 💔and take us into the abyss of 🖤🖤🖤 darkness 🌑.

The bolded already put an end to the discussion. This is about Osimhen, and not Finidi.

I think you can make an argument for your position without being condescending. That said, this is a sensitive issue with both position having it's merit. We also know that much of this rules exist as is because the west largely benefits from this. There are multiple examples of this rules being abused across different competitions and the west are the biggest beneficiaries. To assume abuse doesn't exist is being disingenuous and I'll give an example for context.

Joel Embid is one of the best basketball players in the world today. He was born and bred in Cameroon to Cameroonian parents before emigrating to the USA to further is basketball career. He was given presidential recognition in Cameroon as was seen as the catalyst for basketball development in Cameroon. That was untill France came swooping in and granted him citizenship by special circumstances so he could play for France. He committed to playing for France at this year's Olympics game. The USA however granted him citizenship and he ditched France to now represent the USA. This is one of many examples I can cite to give credence to my point. There was a time when Benin Republic was literally granting citizenship to Nigerian players so they could compete favourably. I still remember Muri Ogunbiyi vividly from 2004, a player of Eyimba who had no ties to Benin dorning their jersey at the AFCON. .

Glory Alozie was a Nigerian athlete that medalled for Nigeria at the Olympics and won multiple laurels for Nigeria in the late 90s. She emigrated to Europe and was granted a Spanish citizenship. She then switched nationalities and represented Spain till the end of her career. This still persist till today. This is when worse in Athletics as most of the biggest athletes in the Middle east now are from Africa and particularly Nigeria. There are multiple athletes who represented Nigeria at the last Olympics who now represent the USA today. There are multiple examples of this in football also across Europe.

On the flip side, Nneka and Chinney Ogwumike and Elizabeth Williams wanted to represent Nigeria at the last Olympics and applied to switch nationalities with FIBA but got their application refused because of "significant ties" to USA.

My take, I personally think the threshold for representation should increase that what obtains now. I think that representation of countries by immigrants and Children of immigrants should begin from the second generation. That way you would have shown significant ties to your nation of residence. I understand this may not be fair to children born and raised in said nations, but I think it for the most part solves a bit of the concerns that persist now. This isn't gospel by the way, just my take.

Black tudors 🤣🤣🤣 like black samurai abi. This one don go read cooked up history. No be only black tudors na black Saxe - Coburg - Gotha.

You are being presumptuous to a fault, who is concerned and why ❓

You are self justifying and self birthing notions based on what self .

You give examples of extreme situations and highlight uncommon situations but irrespective of the rational it is the individuals personal choice. Or if you like the people's choice.

You are supposed sense of reason id what RACISM discrimination and favouritism are anchored upon.

According to you if your regressive ideology was adopted we would have been denied some of the best leaders the world had known.

Obama would never have been President of the USA because his Father is a Kenyan. Consider Jerry Rawlings the modern day architect of Ghana would never have been allowed to rule, the son of a Scotsman.

Do you know international citizens who are 5th generation Jewish opt for national service in Israel and many give up their life's in the IDF.

You have a parochial mind and you are not progressive.

You are what geriatric incompetent political leaders are using to divide ➗ Nigeria on religious, tribal, spatial lines for selfish evil 🙈 political gain.
