Before you cancompare Ekiti election to Osun state(my state) election, travel to Ekiti to learn the behaviour of people of ekiti psychologist define learning as relatively permanent change in behaviour due to experience and practice. I school and i stayed for some times in ekiti, with due respect Ekiti people are not consistent in their friendship, behaviour and opinion. Ekiti claims to be state with highest number of professors which in turn should reflect in their academic performance but opposite is the case as the first problem Fayemi had was with the teachers just because he ask them to take performance test and they refuse since then they became enemy. When next you discuss Ekiti politics consider the following: 1. Ekiti voting population, 80% percent are workers, so having misunderstanding with workers can cause you anything I mean anything. 2. Ekiti people don’t forgive one sin if you offend them they will make sure they pay you back 3. What is the population of Ekiti state and it land mass 4. Fayose is grassroots politicians even if he contested under other party he will win, because he is friendly to workers and Fayose work for himself, watch for his istration body language later. 5. Fayemi Believe in rule of law which is not applicable to poverty striking population who only understand give us money either legal or illegal. 6. Opeyemi Bamidele aka (MOB) is one of the power house of APC in Ekiti state during Segun Oni istration he alone funder the then ACN in Ekiti state, but was refuse senator seat in 2011 after wining primaries, if MOB was the APC candidate the result could have been different because he is also a grassroots politician in Ekiti. 6. Any development one can see today in Ekiti was started by Fayose istration 2003-2006 that why they called him Architect of modern Ekiti. These are some attribute that only Aregbe have as his weapon to win election come August 29th 2014. PDP did not win election in Ekiti but Fayose did APC will not win election in Osun but Aregbe will. Thanks |

A Chelsea fan that made a promise to tattoo John Obi Mikel's name on his backside, should the Eagles midfielder score a goal in the FA Cup game against Derby, has kept his promise. Lee Mitchell, a Chelsea fan, had written the dare to himself on social network site, Twitter, before the FA Cup third round game. Goal scoring And he probably thought safe enough, because Mikel is not particularly known for his goal scoring tendency. Mitchell, before the Derby game in the third round of the FA Cup twitted: - If Mikel scores today I’ll get his name or the Chelsea badge tattooed on my ass. Promise The not-exactly-prolific Mikel opened the scoring and poor old Lee has his name forevermore on his bum. Mitchell he didn’t go for the badge but at least he made good on his promise, and tattooed Mikel's name. source: futaa.com

The next six months represent a period of great questioning for Stephen Keshi. The dates are now set in stone, the opponents are known, and barring a loss of confidence on behalf of the Nigerian Federation, the Big Boss will be leading his troops out to face Argentina, Bosnia and Iran next summer. Following a successful 25 months in the national team hot seat, Keshi naturally has a strong idea of his formation, his tactics and his team. However, despite the joyous evenings we’ve shared, there remain some unanswered questions and some areas of the first team that demand attention and improvement. This article examines a few tactical approaches that Keshi could employ in Brazil and also assesses some different offensive combinations for the Super Eagles. There are, however, seven players whose places and roles within the national side which are unlikely to change. These figures are not the focus of this piece. At this stage it would be foolish for Keshi, particularly considering the success he’s achieved, the paucity of options and the club routines of his players, to move away from playing four at the back. The unit of Vincent Enyeama, Elderson Echiejile, Godfrey Oboabona, Kenneth Omeruo and Efe Ambrose should, fitness permitting, start Nigeria’s first game on June 16 against Iran. Perhaps one or two names will be assessed in these positions in the intervening months, but it is unlikely that there will be a radical overhaul. Similarly, Ogenyi Onazi and John Obi Mikel should not be altered ahead of the international centrepiece together. Having the pair in the heart of the park is one of Nigeria’s primary strengths and as we saw at the Confederations Cup, when Onazi was absent, without this duo working in tandem, the team’s rhythm is affected. The formulation of the other four positions and the organisation of our multitude of attacking talents within the first XI is much harder to predict, yet with the talent available, several could work effectively. 4-3-3: ing the AFCON Final Against Burkina Faso in the final of the 2013 Cup of Nations, Stephen Keshi employed a formation most-closely resembling a 4-3-3. Onazi played at the base of the midfield three, Mikel slightly ahead to his left and Sunday Mba through the middle, ing the forwards. Ideye Brown put his energy and dynamism to good use on the right, Ike Uche operated as the team’s spearhead and Victor Moses cut inside from the left. This may well be Keshi’s favoured approach next summer. It is a tried and tested method and Moses’ drifting inwards affords Elderson the space to attack down the left flank, offering another angle of offence. The problems with this formation, however, relate to personnel rather than tactics. Mba has slipped to the peripheries of the side in recent months; he hasn’t started since the Mandela Challenge match against South Africa and hasn’t scored since the Afcon final. Nosa Igiebor, the attacking midfielder that Keshi has tried to reintegrate into the side, hasn’t quite found his stride for Nigeria, starting only once since the AFCON group stage, and has been affected by injury. Nnamdi Oduamadi has also been trialled as part of a midfield three, but looks far more comfortable higher up the pitch. It feels like a pertinent moment to mention Lukman Haruna. In the Dynamo Kyiv man, the Super Eagles possess a player with the dynamism and the creativity to link the midfield and the forwards. He is by no means a playmaker, but loves to plough forward and could be a perfect foil to the Onazi/Mikel pairing. Similarly, one of the three offensive positions needs to be filled as no one has staked a convincing claim to Moses and Emenike in the forward three. Ideye Brown has held the baton for much of the year, but has steadily drifted from his starting berth due to a lack of cutting edge. Perhaps the most likely solution would be to play Ahmed Musa and Victor Moses on either flank, perhaps interchanging their positioning, with Emenike as a central striker between the two. Victor Obinna, and perhaps Sone Aluko, on the bench would be ready-made replacements for either wide position. 4-2-3-1: More from Musa However, without a recall for Haruna—a possibility at best at this point in time—4-3-3 remains a flawed formation, simply because none of Oduamadi, Igiebor or Mba have convinced for a long period as one of the midfield three. Would it be wiser, therefore, for Keshi to switch to a 4-2-3-1? Currently the most popular formation in world football, many of the globe’s finest teams employ this tactic to great success and it could well be an option for Nigeria. Crucially, I believe this formation could get the best out of Ahmed Musa, one of the most talented players available to Stephen Keshi. Last term, the 21-year-old excelled as part of CSKA Moscow’s title-winning side playing in a central role. Injury to Seydou Doubia meant that the Super Eagles youngster was brought into the middle of the park. Here, his influence was enormous, particularly in tandem with Vagner Love. Musa’s finishing is not, as yet, strong enough for him to operate as a forward, however if we were played behind Emenike, as a second striker, he could emerge as one of the stars of the World Cup. To date, Keshi has preferred to play him on the flanks or as an impact substitute (and understandably so), but it may be that he decides to switch his prodigious forward to the centre of the pitch in time for next summer’s centrepiece. From here, his pace and movement could trouble even the finest defences and would doubtless create more space for the likes of Emenike, Moses and Mikel. This could also provide a perfect opening for Sone Aluko (injury permitting) or Nnamdi Oduamadi to take their place on the right side. 4-4-2: A Plan B Finally, the recent performances of Bright Dike and Shola Ameobi against Italy and Keshi’s clear preference to include more physical presence in his forward line might tempt the Big Boss to experiment with a 4-4-2. This tactic has been much maligned in recent years but, as Arsene Wenger once said, it is the formation that is “rationally and mathematically the best suited for the dimension of the football pitch”. If Keshi were to choose this, then he could include one of the two bulkier players without sacrificing Emenike. It would allow the Super Eagles to vary their approach and also increase their menace from set-pieces. However, it might not be a formation suited to this squad and particularly, John Obi Mikel. 4-4-2 demands dynamism, strength and energy in the middle of the park and the Chelsea man has a tendency to get flustered when closed down in possession. If we were to play with a midfield two against a midfield three, I doubt that Mikel would have the lungs or the guile to take control of the contest. |

My fellow NL's I really wonder the problem btw Nigerian Navy and the Nigerian Merchant Navy. They never co-r-operate with each other. Tell us why? if you have the answer pls where is Nigerian merchant navy going to and what islatest update about them?? WHO IS A MERCHANT NAVY ? A country commercial ships and people who work on them, who were trained to serve on land or sea. A nations merchant fleet comprise the ship that is used to transport cargo during times of peace and war. . Ship transport is used for a variety of unpackaged raw materials ranging from chemical, petroleum product and bulk cargo such as coal ,iron-ore, cereal, bauxite and others. It is therefore unfortunate, that because of greed for accumulating of wealth from the merchant Navy Auxilliary, Nigerian Merchant Navy left partly of their duties on-done after the establishment of the Nigeria Navy (NN) in 1956 and flee to sea, which is their LIFE and HERITAGE, leaving the marine policing duties undone, which created a lot of sea security lapses for instance, if there was separation of power checks and balances between the Nigerian Merchant NAVY(NMN) and Armies of the naval profession each formation would seat up with is assigned duties properly. AIMS, GOAL AND OBJECTIVES OF NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY CORPS. However, the above security challenges can be overcome if some of these preventive strategies are put in place. These preventive measures includes surveillance, patrol or presence of security personnel in oil and economic installation, patrol vessel especially for deep offshore and onshore patrols of swampy mangroves, creek and sea difficult terrain in Niger Delta region have been unable to penetrate. The Nigerian Merchant Navy and Security Corps shall perform these following functions: The duty of the Nigerian Merchant Navy Seafarers Maritime & Petroleum Security Corps is to protect and ensure the safety of coastline, the territorial waters, internal seaports of the country, to use the powers and authority of the Merchant Navy at seas where they have the sovereignty pursuant to the rules of national and international sovereignty; to peruse and prevent smuggling through the sea way.

(M)The Nigerian Merchant Navy Corps also ensures the security at sea during fires exercise by the land, marine and air force. ANALYSIS OF SEA SECURITY LAPSES IN NIGERIA (1)Oil pollution has affected Niger Delta waters which made the Youth jobless and useless them to the society because most them were fishermen or farmer which increased unemployed youth and turn them to hungry lions. According to the former Minister of Labour DR HASSAN LAWAL. Said, there are 5,000 vessel operating in Nigeria seas . We have a duty to ensure that our youths are employed as seafarers- Vanguard Newspaper OCT,25,2007 Pg 33. (2)Anti-illegal importation of sophisticated weapon (Ammunition) through sea, this is as a result of sea security lapses in our country. (3)Stowaway (illegal Migrant by sea) In Niger Delta the (t Task Force) made known to Nigerian that there are machineries migrating into the country to take the Niger Delta militants of about 300 fighters around OLUGBOBIRI Area in Southern Ijaw Local Govt of Balyesa in weapon handling, definitely this machineries migrate through sea, and these are people of criminal intention.

(coolCivil responsibilities: Participation in internal security operation to aid civil authorities and to participate in restoration of peace and resolution of conflict between oil companies and host communities. BENEFITS OF NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY CORPS (MARITIME & PETROLEUM SECURITY AND SAFETY CORPS) TO THE ECONOMY. If the BILL is enacted into Law, the economy stands to benefit thus: (1)It will drastically reduces unemployment rates, poverty, political violence, social instability, environmental degradation and pollution, cyber fraud(yahoo-yahoo), bunkers, kidnapping,yahoo-yahoo, abduction of Nigeria citizen and foreigners, prostitution ,poor outcomes of development weak institutional arrangement (UNEMPLOYMENT:AN IMPEDIMENT TO NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT). (2)It brings stability to the economy and conducive environment for foreign investor in MARITIME and OIL SECTORS. (3)It reduces money spent on repair of pipeline vandalization and extra billion spent annually in the upstream and downstream. Note: ANY DISCRUPTION TO CRUDE OIL AND LNG EXPORT BUSSINESS IN THE ISLAND COULD COST NIGERIA ABOUT 1 BILLION DOLLARS MONTHLY ; BY ALEX OKUMO (The business Nigeria investigative journal 2-8 June 2008 pg 19. (4)Providing 24 hours security measures at Niger Delta Nigeria at large. (5)Finally if enacted the NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY CORPS into law, it would boost the image of the country and enhance Nigeria chances for a seat in the UNITED NATION SECURITY COUNCIL. In other to compliment the effort of the HIS EXCELLENCY PRESIDENT AIHAJI UMARU MUSA YARADUA and the newly created NIGER DELTA MINISTRY AND NIGERIAN at large, it is therefore necessary for the total REFORMATION of NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY CORPS to meet up with President seven point Agenda and to ensure in consolidating and enhance lasting solution to the dreadful crisis in the NIGER DELTA REGIONS. TRAINING OF NIGERIA MARCHANT NAVY FOR WAR According to RUDYARD KIPLING: Maritime nations the world recognized the vital role, the merchant marine plays in the Maritime strategy in peace and in war. Merchant ship are regards as the “FOURTH ARMS” of defenses ( after ARMY,NAVY AND AIR-FORCE), force multiplier or the centre -piece of logistic train for any war at sea. A merchant ship stands as good chance as a warship of being hit by a missile, a mine or torpedo. Proper naval training becomes essential for merchant men to imbibe them courage, spirit of heroism, deep sense of patriotism and national honor. Different nation follow different patterns in the training of Navies. This training philosophy is a sound one in view of what has been said about the roles of merchant ships in war. It is the ways to groom and would seat up with is assigned duties properly pattern in the training of men of their merchant navies. Military training for merchant naval men removes any clumsiness or lack of proper orientation they might suffer in the course of their participation in war at sea. Merchant Navy of yesterday are coward, not trained, unskilled which makes sea piracy hold them to ransomed and Kidnapping of oil workers, it is high time for the presidency and national assembly to empower NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY SEAFARERS (MARITIME, PETROLEUM SECURITY AND SAFETY CORPS) for the sustainable of maritime, petroleum environment in NIGERIA. Many things still needed to put in place in Maritime Sectors as the nation’s economic life and coming together of Maritime stake holder to the laudable project but Nigerian Merchant Navy Corps (Maritime& petroleum security and safety corps) to put the mistakes in order with the help and of (INTERNATIONAL MARITIME ORGANISATION ) I.M.O , INTERNATIONAL SHIPS AND PORTS FACILITIES SECURITY (ISPS) and INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT WORKERS FEDERATION (I.T.W.F) NIGERIAN MERCHANT NAVY SEAFARER(MARINE NAVY) COAST GUARD AND NIGERIA MARITIME ISTRATIVE SAFETY AGENCY( NIMASA) Have a duty to perform in ensuring development and the growth of sectors in Nigeria , as maritime industry is the main of economy. Let s hand to together by promoting maritime sectors and meeting up with challenges ahead by achieving vision 2020.Let us embrace peace and unity to move this Nation forward , We can re-brand this Nation without inviting foreign expert we are expert by ourselves as a MARINE NAVY (COAST GUARD). According to Senate House Leader, Senator Teslim Kola Folarin As a Guest Columnist in THISDAY Newspaper in Resolving the Niger Delta Crisis : Federal government will need to review some of our laws to enhance communal autonomy and make the communities stakeholders in the exploitation of the resources in their localities . This is a law that will unleash the energies of communities to protect and work for the successful exploitation of resources in their domains.

President John Dramani Mahama has congratulated the Black Stars on their qualification to the 2014 World Cup, and urged the management and technical team to build the team to win the cup in Brazil. He particularly charged the technical team to build the tactical discipline and stamina of the players and also ensure unity in the team to be able to beat the highly ranked teams that would be represented in the tournament. He assured the Black Stars of the government's resolve to provide the finance and logistics needed to enhance their participation in the World Cup. President Mahama gave the congratulatory message yesterday when the management and technical team of the Black Stars called on him at the Flagstaff House. The Black Stars secured their qualification to the 2014 World on the strength of their massive 6-1 first leg thrashing of the Pharaohs of Egypt in Kumasi despite succumbing 1-2 to Egypt in Cairo last Tuesday. Before their clash with Egypt, the Black Stars beat Lesotho, The Sudan and Zambia. The management and technical team who were at the seat of government included the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mr Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, the President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Mr Kwesi Nyantakyi, and the Coach of the Black Stars, Mr Kwesi Appiah. The players were not at the meeting as they had emplaned back to their respective destinations. President Mahama said the Black Stars' third successive qualification to the World Cup had made Ghana a permanent feature of the World Cup. He tasked the technical team to take the players through rigorous friendly training matches to prepare them for the ultimate in the tournament. He said Ghana acquitted itself well in the last two World Cups in and South Africa, and thanked the Minister of Youth and Sports, the GFA, the technical team and the players for diligently accomplishing the mission of qualifying Ghana to the World Cup in Brazil. The President said Coach Kwesi Appiah delivered the results while the management team was also able to manage the boys well. He said the players had shown enough dedication, saying that "we can give them all the incentives, but if they do not show dedication, they cannot go far”. "Every single dollar that we gave to the boys, they have justified it," he stressed. President Mahama again commended the Ghanaian ers for their continuous for the Black Stars, and indicated many of the ers used their own resources. He thanked the sponsors, especially the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) and Guinness, for their continuous to the senior national team. Speaking on behalf of the management and technical team, Mr Afriyie Ankrah thanked President Mahama for his personal interest, and motivation for the Black Stars. He again recalled President Mahama's personal intervention to get the Ayew brothers back to the Black Stars. Mr Afriyie-Ankrah said the President’s dialogue with FIFA on the security situation in Egypt ensured the enhanced security arrangement for the Ghana-Egypt match in Cairo. In a short interview with the Daily Graphic, Coach Kwesi Appiah said he had welcomed the President's call on the team to prepare for a big showing in the World Cup. "I believe that with the kind of players we have, with little and encouragement, we will get far," he said. |
