ChrisKels: My brother I tire. My Elder Brother who is a Historian used to tell me he wished we were colonised by France and not Britain. Look at even the economy of these Francophone countries. Very stable. Those in West Africa even have a common currency, the CFA, which allows for ease of trade across these countries as they even share boundaries. Compare with the anglophone West Africa: Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Gambia. All I see is hardship and Wars. Thank God we are blessed with Oil.

Ebere Eze at the heart of Nigeria's dual citizen debate By Colin Udoh, West Africa Editor, KweséESPN Queens Park Rangers' Eberechi Eze, who some consider Nigeria's great attacking midfield hope, is one step away from being lost to the Super Eagles. The midfielder has been called up by the England under-20 selectors, and is expected to make his cadet bow in two friendlies this week. If that happens, it will mean a significantly more convoluted route to navigate if the Greenwich-born 20-year-old is to suit up in green and white. Not unexpectedly, this has led to a bit of friction between the Nigeria Football Federation hierarchy and Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr, who called Eze into a training camp last year but did not hand him a debut, thus leaving him unbound to Nigeria. Eze was one of a number of British-born players, along with Ola Aina, who were invited to scrimmage with the Nigeria national team in London. The expectations were that these players would gradually be integrated into the Super Eagles set up. Eze's efforts were particularly eye-catching. His technique, skills, passing, and movement drew favourable comparison with the legend Austin Okocha, and NFF sources tell KweséESPN that Rohr had pencilled the then-teenager down as a potential replacement for captain John Obi Mikel. Since that kickabout over a year ago, Eze appears to have fallen off the Nigeria national team radar. His contemporary Aina has become a fully-fledged international and only missed the World Cup party by a whisker. In that time, however, Eze has grown from strength to strength at QPR, operating from a free midfield role that allows him the liberty of dropping his little technical bombs from all over the park. That unshackled rein has yielded three goals already this Championship season and made him a favourite with the Rangers fans. That form has led to this call up by England, and could ultimately be the reason for Nigeria's loss. But that ominous prospect is still a long way out as he is nowhere close to the senior England set up. So could he still be in Nigeria's plans? "Yes," Rohr told KweséESPN, before admitting that the road is now just that little bit tougher: "But it will be a long process before authorisation for him to play for us." But a source within the federation preached sympathy for the coach, explaining that with so many foreign-born options available to select from, not to mention a plethora of home-grown talent also making their cases, it is a 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' situation for the coach. "He can't take every player born abroad. If he embarks on doing that, people will still moan and call it a team of second-divisioners and that he is leaving local boys out. There's never a perfect fix to the issue," the source said. "Ebere is playing well. Good luck to him with England. There are many others that are being touted. Danjuma. Billing. There's so many. Yet when [Rohr] leaves even one of the old guard out of the list, heavens will almost fall." It is about finding the balance between which of these dual citizens to pick and which to leave out. For now, Ebere is one that needs chasing while the door is still open. Source: KweséESPN 3 Likes 1 Share |

We would even have been better off with the Portuguese but for the strong witches from kellycute and his fellow binis, though, if the Portuguese had stayed, I doubt there would have been any amalgamation. The present day Nigeria would atleast, av been four different countries with bini the smallest just like Togo |

Sometimes we ignore the "easy fruit" and aim for the ones high up the tree or maybe we just didn't take notice of how ripe and sweet the "easy fruit" is or could potentially be. I hope he is not plucked by the time we return to that tree. tbaba1234: 5 Likes 1 Share |

tbaba1234: But there is also a lot of French interest and investments in their economies. There are so many French nationals who have businesses in these countries especially those along the Coast of West Africa: Senegal, CIV, Togo, Benin. Guinea severed a lot of ties with France very early, gaining independence in 1958, two years before their Francophone neighbors. Reason why Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali are that poor is because of firstly lack of direct access to the sea and secondly lack of Mineral resources and thirdly shortage of Arable land for Agriculture. Remember also that Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia are also Francophone and among the leading economies of the continent. Sierra Leone and Liberia despite the huge presence of Diamond deposits are amongst the poorest in the World. Gambia thrives on tourism and Groundnut production and their barely 1million population has made life easier for them. Access to the sea has also boosted their international trade. Even though they are still among the poorest. |

Lol... Oh oh... Here it comes. Chriskels' hammer upon Rohr. But that aside.. Eze's process won't be long naa. I really needed to post this to get thoughts or did Eze play for an England U-12 or something that requires a switch? Lol.. All he needed was a call-up naa.. not so? Anyway, I really hope we eventually pluck this fruit for good and stop admiring it from a short distance. ChrisKels: 3 Likes |

#JustMusing For the long long long run.... I have a dream that one day and hopefully soon, TheGoodJoe and I will see our league of extraordinary hitmen dream come to pass in the Super Eagles. The players that promise to form this lethal league in the team are still young and growing, sometimes truly brilliant, sometimes average and a couple more times inconsistent BUT hopefully in time as they keep maturing, the clouds will be pregnant and the rains will be unleashed. The likes of Kelechi Promise Iheanacho, Victor James Osimhen, Samuel Chukwueze, Samuel Kalu, Moses Simon Ajala, Alexander "The Great" Iwobi, Henry C. Onyekuru, Isaac "The Beast" Success, Taiwo "the gangling horse" Awoniyi Michael and a few others on the rise will hopefully form this league in the team one day. One day, the pieces will all come together somehow and some way. I believe. #SoarSuperEagles #LetTheBuildingContinue 3 Likes 2 Shares

Icon4s: The north african countries are in a different situation from others. They do not have their national reserves stuck in France or pay colonial taxes. France only allows them to withdraw a certain percentage from their national reserves per year. According to one report, African countries pay as much as 440 billion euros to France as taxes every year. These countries had to pay for the infrastructure built by the colonial masters when they got their independence. France has the exclusive right to provide military equipment and train their officers. The sheer control over these countries keeps them poor. 4 Likes |

ChrisKels: See, if we were in the same situation as Ivory Coast, we would have disbanded our team sacked our coach and shopped for new players. Their golden generation of players is gone. Their football is on the downward trend and so they needed this massive influx. But we have a team that dominated its WCQ group and featured at the WC. We cannot pull this team down. All we need do is to build on it. If you look at this team from when Rohr played his first game to date will you say there have not been so many inclusions? If it because of Eze, we can still get him after he plays for the England U20. 3 Likes |
