Adeboye amosu you are mad,what are u sef.u are talking of oshoala and u put he,foolish man.
And that makes you rain so much insults on the writer? Interesting indeed !!!
You would have corrected the writer, instead of hurling insult at him. Yes, we expected the writer to edit his write up before publishing it. And some of us see them as super humans that don’t make mistakes. Please, the moderator read every comment here, so use this platform to draw the attention of the writer to any error spotted. Thank you
The rate at which some folks can be uncouth is epic. Your hurling insults at him is absolutely unwarranted. You could have just read and ignore the error, passing it off as just an error for what it is.Or politely draw his attention to it.
Honestly, the level of moral degradation among many a Nigerian is alarming!
Good for you, especially now that the world cup is around the corner.
Fantastic move. Happy for you, Akpeyi, Alampasu and Moses (sweet karma is catching up with backyard itk Sarri now). Now Afcon Egypt 2019 and Fifa Women World Cup France 2019 are really taking shape for Nigeria. This brings you and our colleague and friend, Ordega (who is in Athletico Madrid and they’re leading the table -the Women’s league) closer. So, it’s all good, Falcons.
Kel, not you are not up to date. Ordega used to play for Atletico Madrid. She is currently with Washington Spirit in NWL in the US.
Congratulations Asisat. I know say one day you go make me proud. God bless Nigeria!!!
