At some point, citizens will have to start taking responsibility. It is irresponsible to claim that the “Coastal Road is taking people’s lives”. Over-speeding and irresponsibility is taking people’s lives, not good roads.
Science, Medicine and Surgery has really advanced. I just saw a video of a man that has oral cancer which has caught about 80% of his tongue and lower jaw.
The surgeons removed almost all of his tongue and his lower jaw.
They then harvested flaps and bones from his thigh, which they used to reconstruct a new tongue and jaw. It reminds me of how bones were taken from my hip and placed in my jaws too.

Your dad is not wrong. I even have written on it once.
Morocco shows up as MAR on scoreboards because FIFA's country codes do not always come from the English name.
A lot of them come from French, which is the working language FIFA has used since it was founded in Paris in 1904. Morocco in French is Le Maroc. First three letters: MAR.
And Morocco is not alone. This happens more than people realise.
Germany is GER, which tracks in English. But then you get to Ivory Coast, which shows up as CIV, from Côte d'Ivoire. Algeria is ALG from Algérie. Haiti is HAI from Haïti. Switzerland is SUI from Suisse. Spain is ESP from España. Iran appears as IRN.
The pattern runs across the entire scoreboards.Some countries are also coded based on whatever their language is.
FIFA built its codes in an era when French dominated international administration, and colonial history shaped which language a country's name was recorded in first.
That legacy is still sitting quietly on every scoreboard at this World Cup.
I hope you have learned something today.

No goal kick in the first 45 minutes? This is the first time I've ever seen that happen. A remarkable record! Canada and Morocco una do this one oo🥶.

🚨 One day, one of the current Super Eagles 🇳🇬🦅players will tell the World how painful it was for them to miss the 2026 FIFA World Cup dues their self decision.
I remember how few of us condemned that useless protest before a crucial game against DR Congo 🇨🇩 but they called us unprintable names.
The ring leader of the protest knew he will not be part of the team to the World if the Super Eagles🇳🇬🦅 eventually qualified, so he led others to jeopardise their own chances with an unnecessary protest.
The smart dude who has featured at the World Cup before went on to announce his retirement as soon as the team failed to beat DR Congo 🇨🇩.
I believe everyone involved, the players, the NFF officials, and the gullible Nigerian fans have learnt one or two lessons from that show of shame displayed in Morocco 🇲🇦 before a crucial match.
Peter Obi: "I am going to make sure we have primary healthcare centres in all 8,000 wards across Nigeria"
Meanwhile it was Soludo's administration that commissioned the first-ever General Hospital in Onitsha South LGA, a state where Obi was an active governor for eight years. For eight good years Obi couldn't build a hospital in one of the major local govts in Anambra.
But he's promising a healthcare centre across the nation, and in four years too, because he said he wants just one tenure. What a joke.
🚨 This information I'm about to share about Coach Gbenga Ogunbote can't be found on Wikipedia or Google.
Ogunbote has been around since 2008.
Here is the breakdown.
He started with Gateway in 2008. The team relegated.
He moved to Sunshine Stars as assistant to Coach Solomon Ogbeide in 2009.
He became Sunshine Stars head Coach in 2010 and took them to the continent.
He took Sunshine Stars to Semifinal of CAF Confederation Cup in 2011.
He went further and guided Sunshine to CAF Champions League Semifinal in 2012.
This period was my early days as domestic League reporter covering Nigerian Leagues.
None of the Portuguese players have played up to their normal level in this tournament. It’s a coaching problem, Martinez simply has not been able to get them ticking
