🚨 Peter Drury Breaks Silence: Questionable Calls, Cancelled Goals & FIFA Favouritism – Has Football Become a Scripted Show?
🗣Peter Drury
“After years spent analyzing football matches and commentating on the game at the highest level, I can honestly say that what we witnessed today between Argentina and Egypt was unlike anything I’ve seen in my entire career.
How that was awarded as a penalty remains a complete mystery. The contact, if any, looked minimal at best, yet the decision stood. It’s becoming harder and harder to watch the sport without feeling that the beautiful game is slowly turning into something of a joke for millions of fans around the world. The officiating has been strangely “clean” almost suspiciously so yet it leaves serious questions about consistency and impartiality.
Then there was Egypt’s goal, ruled out for reasons that still aren’t entirely clear. Why was it disallowed? In the same match, when Argentina scored their decisive goal, there appeared to be a clear foul in the build-up that neither the referee nor VAR chose to review properly. These are the moments that make supporters feel the outcome is no longer decided purely on the pitch.
There’s a growing narrative out there and it’s hard to ignore that Lionel Messi is being protected as FIFA’s golden boy. With Cristiano Ronaldo no longer part of the international scene, some believe the powers that be are determined to keep Messi’s story alive for as long as possible because his presence still drives massive global interest and viewing figures. Whether that’s true or not, the pattern of decisions in key moments only fuels that conversation.
passion, and the unpredictable nature of who wins on any given day. But when decisions repeatedly go one way, when valid goals are chalked off and questionable ones are given, and when VAR seems to miss obvious incidents, it starts to feel like something else is at play. The game deserves better. Fans deserve transparency, consistency, and the simple belief that the result is earned not influenced.
These are the moments that test our love for the sport. And right now, that love is being stretched thin.“
🚨 Jose Mourinho:
Argentina have been heavily favored over the past two World Cups, and it’s starting to look like everything was planned for Messi to win it. They won the 2022 World Cup with so many questionable refereeing decisions, so many penalties, and countless controversies, and now we’re witnessing it again. When is FIFA going to say something about it?
They refused to give Messi a red card in the first group-stage game. Against Cape Verde, the match was full of controversies, and today, Egypt’s goal was disallowed for no reason. The same sequence happened before Argentina’s last goal, yet it wasn’t even reviewed. Argentina committed 13 fouls, and not a single card was issued to any of their players not even a yellow.
I think if this continues, people will have to start asking what’s really going on and whether it’s all being planned for Messi to win it again.
I commend the Senate for passing the constitutional amendment bill to establish state police across Nigeria. This is a bold and necessary response to a long-standing national conversation on how we protect our communities.
My appreciation also goes to His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR @officialABAT . This reform is a direct result of his visionary leadership and commitment to restructuring our security architecture. He has championed this cause since his days as Governor of Lagos State, knowing that a safer Nigeria requires empowering authorities who actually know their terrain. His resolve kept this conversation alive and brought us to the doorstep of a reform whose time has come.
For us in Lagos, our security needs are unique, dynamic and constantly evolving. We know our streets and our neighborhoods better than anyone else. This progress finally gives us the opportunity to build a system that is fully responsive to our local realities.
There is still work to be done but this is major progress toward a safer Nigeria.
@Trullydearest Go where? The best President Nigeria ever produced, to go where exactly? Your agenda is to bring Peter Obi in as President which is impossible because of his dumb analysis is sickening and lack of direction is that the reason why you want him president above PBAT?
WHY PRESIDENT TINUBU HAS BECOME THE ENEMY & THE NORTHERN ELITES WANT HIM OUT BY ALL MEANS
The Central Bank facility in ABJ was designed to cater for *2000 personnel* but during PMB's tenure it was overstaffed, with about *4000* extra persons.
Majority of these guys were young Hausa children of influential parents.
1. They were given employment, without any assignment.
In other words, they were collecting salaries without doing any work.
2. Most of them were also not qualified.
3. They will not agree to work anywhere else outside ABJ.
Remember when BAT became president, he relocated some sections / departments of the CBN to Lagos. It affected majority of them.
Many of them, who were supposed to be staff in those sections, resigned because they were not ready to relocate.
The second step was to transfer others outside ABJ.
That also attracted further resignations.
4. The rest of the affected staff were offered the option of taking an exam, to remain in the bank or accepting a 2 year salary severance package to leave the establishment.
Most took the package because they knew they were not qualified.
My friend's daughter works in the CBN and she took the exam and is still there today.
That is how BAT sanitized the place.
All those noise stems from the anger of these people (Hausa/Fulani) who, all along have been taking advantage of Nigeria and treating it like it belongs to them only.
Nigeria's economy is in this terrible state today because of what they used CBN and Emefiele to do with the dollar.
When BAT took over, they discovered an account in CBN with $20ml belonging to the 6 year old child of Buhari's nephew.
They were buying at very cheap rate and selling at great profits using Bureau De change agents.
Because of this, business people, importers, manufacturers and ordinary people, traveling out of the country, could not get dollars to buy.
That is what damaged the naira.
Today most of the Bureau de change businesses have closed because the price difference in dollar between the CBN and the open market is very small.
They are very angry, that is why they are coming up with all manners of negative propaganda against BAT.
I am not a fan of BAT. I did not vote for him but some of what he is doing is very good for us.
Look at Wike as FCT minister, who would have thought that a non-Hausa person could ever become the FCT minister?
The petroleum subsidy was another cash cow for these people, but now it's gone.
Many of them were putting forward false documents and collecting money without importing anything.
Today, also petroleum theft has drastically been curtailed.
So, all these talks of converting the National Assembly to APC, so that PBAT would become life president is nothing but cheap propaganda.
The problem of Nigeria has been the Hausa North. They are not progressive in anything.
Their definition of progress is to loot government money for themselves and their cronies.
They don't do anything worthwhile for their people.
Imagine the banditry and terrorism still going on in Sotoko, Zamfara, Katsina, Kebbi, Bornu and Yobe states, all these years and yet nothing has been done by them, even when PMB was president.
It is because their leaders sponsor it, because of mining of minerals.
They still allow Fulani herders to roam about and almajiri system to continue in this day and age.
Haba! It is not only very shameful but also disgraceful.
They are desperate to see that PBAT does not make a 2nd term, because if that happens then you can be sure that Nigeria will be restructured.
Why should Lagos state generate income and then share it with the rest of the nation?
That is part of what his tax reform is correcting.
Let every state generate their internal revenue and use it.
A few years ago in Zamafa state, they looted all the money in the government purse and when there was nothing left, they went and cleaned out the civil servants' pension money.

The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road was not initiated by Tinubu, it was Tafawa Balewa that initiated it around 1961. Tinubu is only executing it. The Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway was not initiated by Tinubu, Shehu Shagari initiated it in 1980, Tinubu is merely implementing it.
To Bola Tinubu, THE LABOUR OF OUR HEROES PAST SHALL NEVER BE IN VAIN!!!!
Fellow Nigerians,
Three years ago, on this day, I first addressed you as your President. I pledged courage in leadership, honesty in reform, and commitment to rebuilding the foundations of our economy.
The decisions we have taken since have been difficult but necessary. Today, the signs of recovery, resilience, and renewal are visible across our country.
In honour of this milestone, and as a precursor to Democracy Day, today, across all six geopolitical zones, over twenty groups of strategic projects in energy, health, enterprise, education, and public works would be commissioned.
Under the Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund, four flagship projects today. FEMADEC Energy at the Federal University of Technology, Owerri — the first of twenty CNG refuelling stations in our federal universities. Portland Gas at Ojota, Lagos — a 96,000 SCMD CNG mother station, with a daughter station in Kubwa, Abuja. Ibile Oil and Gas, with its network of fifteen CNG refuelling stations across Lagos State. And Rolling Energy at Jahi, Abuja — anchoring a portfolio of seventeen RLNG and LCNG facilities across Kaduna, Kano and Borno. Together, these projects will lower transport costs, expand cleaner energy, and strengthen our energy sovereignty.
In the health sector, thirteen new projects today across all six zones — every one of them ribbon-cut on the ground today. Six new facilities at our federal teaching hospitals: the President Bola Tinubu Complex at the Federal Medical Centre, Abuja; the Trauma Centre Pharmacy Quality Control Laboratory at Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria; the Infertility and Assisted Reproductive Technology Centre at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital, Bauchi; the new Mental Health Complex at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital; the new Administrative Complex at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu; and the Laboratory Complex at the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital.
Also commissioned are the State Emergency Operations Centres in Kano, Sokoto and Katsina; the newly constructed Lagos Vaccine Hub in Oshodi; and the National Emergency Medical Service and Ambulance System fleet — one hundred and forty-five tricycle ambulances, six boat ambulances, and seventy-nine new ambulances for our federal hospitals.
Two revitalised primary health centres at Gadon Kaya in Kano and Aboh in Delta State. These two stand for the almost three thousand primary health centres our administration has revitalised under the IMPACT programme over the last two years, alongside twenty-seven equipped Comprehensive Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care sites, one thousand six hundred and two revitalised Level 1 facilities, and one thousand three hundred and sixty revitalised Level 2 facilities, together bringing quality care closer to ordinary Nigerians in every zone.
Alongside these, the new SMEDAN Industrial Development Centre at Ikorodu, Lagos, and additional projects in education and public works being delivered across the country.
These projects are not ceremonial symbols. They are evidence that the Renewed Hope Agenda is being felt in homes, businesses, schools and hospitals across our federation.
Today is the commemoration of our inauguration. It is not a day for long speeches. On June 12, our Democracy Day, we will present our full scorecard to Nigerians.
And so, by the authority vested in me as President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I hereby declare all these projects — across our health system, our energy infrastructure, our enterprise, our education and our public works — duly commissioned, and dedicated to the service of the Nigerian people.
The work continues.
The reforms continue.
And our resolve remains unshaken.
Thank you, and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
