This aged nicely. He provided two assists

England need a goal and they are bringing on Aaron Gordon 😂😂😂

In 2010: Messi didn’t win the Champions League or the World Cup, yet they changed the Ballon d’Or criteria to favor goals and gave it to him.

In 2011: Ronaldo had more goals than Messi, but they claimed trophies were what mattered, so Messi won it again.

In 2012: Ronaldo had more trophies, but they gave it to Messi because he scored 91 goals in a calendar year.

In 2019: Van Dijk won the Champions League and was named UEFA Best Player and EPL Player of the Year, but the criteria switched back to goals and Messi won the Ballon d’Or.

In 2021: Lewandowski scored more goals, had a historic individual season, and won The Best FIFA Men’s Player, but Messi was given the Ballon d’Or for winning the Copa América.

In 2023: Haaland won five trophies including the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, Club World Cup, and UEFA Super Cup along with the UEFA Best Player, EPL Player of the Year, and the Golden Boot. Yet, the Ballon d’Or went to Messi for winning the 2022 World Cup, even though in 2010 they argued that the World Cup did not matter 😂.

This France team reminded of the Brazilian team that reached three FIFA World Cup finals

It looks like the same pattern!

Brazil were champions in 1994
Lost the final to France in 1998
Won the World Cup in 2002

France were champions in 2018
Lost the final to Argentina in 2022
Now, they look unstoppable in 2026

This is one reason why Nigeria's public policies are always flawed.

With no disrespect to Dr. Joe himself, but policies shouldn't be based on individual ideas or what a group of elites considered progressive or "the brightest way of doing things".

It should be based on collected data, survey, democratic inputs and feedback from the populace. People sitting in an air conditioner filled room can't just assume what is best for the mass population in the country.

It's a monopolisation of abstract and pedestrian knowledge that no single human being or a group of politically privileged human beings can know.

On NYSC reforms, what's the data that show that the current system isn't working? And if any, where's the data that indicate that the new system will solve the identified problem? What research was carried? Where's the democratic input from the people who are currently in the system (the corp members)? Where's the feedback mechanism that made this new approach justifiable?

Without any of this, we just propose ideas that sound and look good on paper only for it to become adversely inapplicable to those who the ideas directly affected.

The same way I asked Mr. Oyedele then what data was driving his tax reform bill, and the proposed increment in VAT and CGT in the bill, only to have the host and the co-host kick me out of the space.

Our intellectual and political elites must be humble enough to know that not all ideas in their head are made of gold.

Else, we continue to fix what necessarily isn't broken.

"Skill acquisition" is a scam.

Create an enabling environment and relevant infrastructure (power, transport, roads, etc.) and watch people upskill themselves.

Maybe we have half the wisdom of these Professors that's why we can't figure out their genius.

You can't be clamoring for a better country while throwing gala wrappers and Pepsi bottles on the expressway because “there are no public bins”. You’re part of the problem

[Olivia 💞 @Blessing_Olivi]

Haaland is 25 years Old but stands inside the box for most of the game. He doesn't get criticised.

But when it's 41 years old Ronaldo, they expect him to support Mendes in left back and Vitinha in midfield.

Terrible people!

Have you people seen this?

Students who went to take their NECO exams got abducted from the exam hall?

This happened in Borno and I hope it gets the same media outrage as Oyo's.

This is unfortunate.

Dear Bọla Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT, it's over 45 days, these children are still in the forest with terrorists.

Why are you so heartless? Bring these children back home to their families.

John Terry responds to Enzo Maresca’s letter:

“I read every word of Enzo’s letter, and all I saw were excuses. You don’t walk away from Chelsea halfway through a season because Manchester City called. That’s not a ‘difficult decision’ that’s choosing your own career over the club that trusted you and picked you up from Championship.

You say Chelsea treated you well, yet you left the players, fans and staff to deal with the mess. That’s sneaky behaviour, and no apology changes that. If you can abandon Chelsea for Manchester City today, don’t be surprised if you abandon Manchester City for Real Madrid tomorrow. Loyalty isn’t something you write in a farewell letter it’s something you prove with your actions.”
