@tare_abang @Rovingheights Just 15 o. But I have 3 more that I haven't read because the start wasn't encouraging

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

You should see me celebrating the 4-3 loss. For a while I thought we were cursed with losing 3-1. Now I know that’s not true. We are just cursed with losing. Lol. GGMU

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

@TheAdenekan Lol.

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

Need to come to the point where i don’t get triggered by whatever happens to Man Utd. But been saying this for decades and here I am still. Cheers to a great week everyone

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

Been a great day of sporting content. Started with UFC, to La Vuelta then the Springboks at the RWC and now the Dutch vs the Irish. Medvedev winning his 2nd US Open will be a great way to end the day. No I didn't watch Nig vs Sao Tome.

@Abolore_92 Lol. God will do it for us

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

Typically takes me a few days to get over any Man U loss. Still can't understand how emotionally involved I get when it comes to that team. Maybe it's time to begin to temper expectations for the season but it's hard

@BamideleBanjoko I will call you soon to learn from you how to overcome this challenge

@FabrizioRomano It's about time.

@stats_feed Not a fan but it's Lionel messi. I'm a big fan of Maradona. Most talented ever but talent without application is useless. Messi fulfilled his talent.

@ImmaOgah The problem with this take is that it wants to justify military coups. I don't think there is a justification for them. Does that absolve civilian leaders of any blame? Nope! But perpetuating evil cannot be response to curing evil

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

I dont like subsidies not because they don't work but because of the way they are applied currently in the country. Also don't think long term palliatives is the way as it may end up as a reapplication of the saved subsidies. But I do get d need for temp relief. It's around us

@FinPlanKaluAja1 @Enoughjeanss There is no guarantee that any reduction in import duty would trickle down to consumers. Importers may apply the higher margin elsewhere.

Pay school fees? Always thought Govt schools were relatively free already.

@musingsbyzaram You have now joined everyone. Lol

Nothing beats a cup of well brewed coffee to start your day. Well until your next dentist visit where you keep answering questions on your smoking habit (never smoked) and then have to pay out of pocket for a teeth whitener as your HMO does not cover it.

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

Problem with tweeting non tax takes is you kind of wonder how it may be perceived by your audience. Done several takes on a response to a political issue this evening and finally deleted totally saying maybe it isn't worth it and would comment in my closed whatsapp group instead

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

@musingsbyzaram Too many things we take for granted. The things that appear so mundane are really miracles. Thank God for breathe.

[Martins Arogie @martinsarogie]

One thing I have learnt in life is that a man cannot find comfort and peace in isolation whilst existing as part of a community. True comfort and peace only comes when the community itself had found comfort and peace.

@damistorian @Bernd_Leno He plays for Fulham. A point at the Emirates? That's Christmas coming early o
