Just imagine if the person stopped at that illegal checkpoint was not the Chairman of ICPC.
Would the four officers be in custody?
How many ordinary Nigerians have been stopped, intimidated, taken to a POS and forced to part with their money, with nobody powerful enough to make the story news?
This is why police accountability matters.
“I dey wear uniform” cannot mean “I fit collect your money.”
Nigerians, know your rights, report abuses and demand a police service that protects citizens instead of preying on them.
Making a spectacle of the U.S. anthem before a match that doesn’t include the U.S. is another unnecessary bit (like the Halftime show). You don’t play anthems of nations not in the game. Canada and Mexico didn’t. FIFA continuing to bend traditions to stroke egos.
The Laws Of The Game state that the half time must NOT exceed 15 minutes.
In the biggest game of the entire sport, the half time lasted 26 minutes.
Unbelievable stuff. Infantino needs to be sent to a North Korean labor camp.
Delayed kickoffs, pointless shows, breaking the rules of the games regarding the 15 minute half time, ad breaks disguised as hydration breaks.
Destroying the very core of the sport. Americans don't deserve to host anything ever again.
