Merciless Messi is World Footballer of the Year

Argentine footballer of the year Lionel Messi was named the  winner in the poll of captains and coaches of national teams to decide the World Footballer of the Year 2009. The Barcelona striker blew other nominees away. His 1,073 votes were 700 more than the second-placed Cristiano Ronaldo of Real Madrid, while another Spanish-based player, Messi's Barcelona teammate, Xavi, finished third with 106 nominations.

It was the first time an Argentine has won the Fifa award since its inauguration in 1991. Germany's Lothar Matthaus was the first recipient and since then it has been dominated by Brazilians with three wins for Ronaldo, two for Ronaldinho and one apiece for Kaka Romario and Rivaldo. The only time an African won was in 1995 when Liberian George Opong Weah won it beating a formidable field featuring Paulo Maldini (Italy)and Jurgen Klinsman(Germany).

In other awards announced on Tuesday also , Cristiano Ronaldo won the inaugural Goal of the Year award for the 40-yard belter he scored for Manchester United against Porto in last season's Champions League, and Marta of Brazil picked up the Women's Player of the Year award. 

NO AFRICAN IN PLAYER OF THE YEAR 2009.

Do you want a foreign PRESIDENT? SAY NO TO A FORIEGN COACH

NATIONAL AWARD FOR AMODU ?

All the bookmakers are confused. How did Nigeria qualify? Baturanchi. Football is not mathematics and if it were, who can beat the almighty at the almighty formula. What is the almighty formula? It is divine. What are you saying .It is the nature and ability of God to be God? His capacity to alter, automate and color his nationality and to favor he whom he pleases and believe me Nigeria is chosen and beloved of GOD? More so God speaks wazobia and is indeed a Nigerian. I shall leave the rest for philosophers to philosophize. Nigeria's qualification for the 2010 world cup in South Africa is an act of God or simply put divine intervention. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OPPORTUNITY MEETS PREPARATION.

Now, those bloodhounds waiting for Amodu's flesh and Kanu Nwankwos' blood at the pre advertised inquest and witch catching exercise. I HAVE BAD NEWS FOR YOU.THERE WILL BE NONE.GOD GAVE US THIS TICKET AND WE MUST LISTEN TO HIM. The message is TOUCH NOT MY ANOINTED AND DO MY PROPHET NO HARM.AGAIN I SAY LEAVE AMODU ALONE.CHALLENGE HIM.GIVE HIM THE NECESSARY TOOLS TO DO HIS JOB .NIGERIA CAN ONLY WIN THE WORLD CUP IN 2010 ONLY BY PLAYING NIGERIAN SOCCER. NFF DO NOT ROCK THE BOAT. All those emotional blow outs and fuse cuts during the world cup qualifiers must be swept aside. We must now clean the slate.

Those clamoring for a foreign coach obviously do not understand what makes us Nigerians more so it has never worked for Nigeria it will not work QED. I was in France in 1998: Bora Milosevic was a terrible waste of taxpayer’s money. He simply did not understand the Nigerian factor. Do you know why we tell you "I dey come oh “just before jumping into a car and zoom off and then expect you to understand…ah ha! I am not here to lecture on global culture or diversity but to speak truth to power. Mr. President anybody telling you about a foreign coach ask him if he would also like a foreign President, a dad from Germany or a mom from Brazil. Nigerians are recognized globally as competent, strong and reliable. All these akara dealers parading as foreign coaches, how many of them have the pedigree, the experience and qualification as AMODU SHUIABU. For the uninitiated Shuaibu is one of the most experienced and successful soccer national team coaches in the history of mankind. The statistics will shock you .He simply does not loose matches. Add the fact that he has the mental and intellectual capacity to coach the national team of a country where every Tom Dick and Harry is an arm chair coach even so we must learn from experience. Please do not ‘Milosevic’ this team as you did in France 98 where spewed Phillip Troussier had a better run than Bora his replacement? Do not ’Onigbinderize ' this squad where bad blood from this demonic exercise of swapping coaches before the world cup tagged Nigeria dead on arrival. Did God not punish Togo for Keshi's sake? We must listen to God to win this world cup.

Finally, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TAKE AMODUS WC TICKET AND GIVE IT TO ANOTHER MAD MAN WHITE BLACK OR GREEN. How do you measure performance, you said get us a world cup ticket, you got it .What did Amodu not do for you. Okay you are one of those clowns that expected Nigeria 7, the other country yet to score. Abeg wake up, there are no more minnows in this business. Across the pond Maradona and Argentina lost crawled on all fours, losing matches including a 6-1 collapse in Bolivia before finding a ticket but the man is still coach of Argentina, Why? He still delivered the goods .He got them what they wanted a ticket to South Africa. If the Super eagles had lost 6-1 to any team in her group during the crucial world cup qualifiers Shuibu Amodu and his players would have been arraigned before the Nigerian Senate as traitors ,Paraded before aggrieved fans who will shout “hang them high”, tried in some kangaroo court and jailed for life for high treason. Nigeria is not an easy team to coach.

The nations cup is the next bus stop allow the man to concentrate and focus .stop all this foreign coach foolishness, be grateful for once and show appreciation President Yaradua, you are part of all this mess, What part of what has happened you don’t understand, Please if none of those of those cassava eating friends of mine will bring to your notice a man worthy of National honors I will. Your Excellency May I present to you Citizen Shuaibu Amodu conqueror of Tunisia, Mozambique and Kenya. Qualifier of Nigeria for the most important sporting event that will ever hold on African soil the 2010 FIFA world cup. The gentleman is deserving of the highest national award and decoration of the land. Thank you Sir.

What if Nigeria did not qualify? Oh my god that would have been a total disaster, Hypertension will cripple the nation….ah e for hard oh. The world cup for Nigerians and indeed soccer fans all over would have been like tea without sugar or saccharine.

TOUCH NOT MY PROPHET.....LEAVE SUPER EAGLES COACH AMODU SHUAIBU TO TAKE HIS TEAM TO THE WORLD CUP

All the bookmakers are confused. How did Nigeria qualify? Ba turanchi. Football is not mathematics and if it were who can beat the almighty in the almighty formula. What is the almgity formula ?. It is divine.what are you saying .It is the nature and abjlity of God to be God, to alter, automate and colour his nationality and to favor he whom he pleases and believe me Nigeria is chosen and beloved of GOD. moreso God speaks wazobia and is indeed a Nigerian.I shall leave the rest for philosophers to philosophise.Nigeria's qualification for the world cup is an act of God or simply put divine intervention. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OPPORTUNITY MEETS PREPARATION.

Now, those bloodhounds waiting for Amodu's flesh and kanu Nwankwos blood at the pre advertised November inquest and witch catching exercise. I HAVE BAD NEWS FOR YOU.THERE WILL BE NONE.GOD GAVE US THIS TICKET AND WE MUST LISTEN TO HIM. The message is TOUCH NOT MY ANOINTED AND DO MY PROPHET NO HARM.AGAIN I SAY LEAVE AMODU ALONE.CHALLENGE HIM.GIVE HIM THE TOOLS HE NEED.NIGERIA CAN ONLY WIN THE WORLD CUP IN ONLY BY PLAYING NIGERIAN SOCCER. DO NOT ROCK THE BOAT. All those emotional blow outs and fuse cuts before the world cup qualifier must be swept aside.WE must now clean the slate.

How will you know God's mind . Read my next blog. HALF A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE.

Did I tell you that Coach Amodu is the apple of God's eye.

WQ101-Will the Super eagles qualify for the 2010 World Cup?

Go do the math.

WQ101-Will the Super eagles qualify for the 2010 World Cup?

Soccer fans around the world have spent the last couple of weeks doing WQ101, the new non credit mathematics course of permutations in world cup qualifiers. This quantitative techniques plays out nightly in every bar, kitchen table and any where two or more soccer fans are gathered. Who will be playing alongside hosts South Africa at the 2010 World Cup? Some teams have booked their places already but some of the world’s beloved teams are still in the trenches.

Fans are agonizing and jargonizing. The fans of the Super eagles are particularly frustrated their own version of this match is nerve wrecking. I had teased earlier in the week on my face book page and comments were followed by a torrent of calls from “real pissed off ’’ eagle fans. They just don’t like this if Mozambique beat Tunisia plus Nigeria beat Kenya equal to qualification.

(M-T) +(N-K)=Q

Math I know can be tricky sometimes. Numbers will always play tricks on your mind. Unknown variables will drive you nuts in a minute and if the algebraic equation involves how your favorite team can get a ticket to dance in the big carnival you may then to deploy the almighty formula. The truth is we have gone beyond the point beyond and are now walking in the celestial realm. Only the divine can resolve these knotty quagmires. Isn’t the quadratic equation also known as the almighty formula.aha that is the one the god of soccer uses.

Now ask me again, will the super eagles qualify for the world cup in south Africa?

Answer:To play soccer is human but to win a world cup qualification is devine.

Fast and pray.

Thank you DROGBA

Didier Drogba and the Elephants of Ivory Coast

will be leading the African Challenge for

the 2010 world Cup.

Drogba was on target as the Elephants of Cote 'dIviore recorded a 1-1 draw with Malawi to book an early ticket to South Africa 2010 . The Chelsea star declared his team agenda for the FIFA world cup next year: "We will do everything we can to get to the final and hopefully win it," Drogba said on Sunday at a press conference in Johannesburg, a day after Ivory Coast qualified for the 2010 World Cup.

CAN IVORY COAST WIN THE WORLD CUP IN SA 2010? ......Comment

The Ivorians had sent out early signals when they crushed Malawi 5-0 in the first leg of the World Cup qualifiers on March 29, 2009.

Acrossthe continent in comming reports say most of the other African top teams are walking very tight ropes .Chief among the mathematical gymnasts is the super eagles of Nigeria who need a financially challenged Harambee stars team to beat heavily motivated Carthage eagles of Tunisia in Tunis. The Last time both teams met Tunisia triumphed in Nairobi.Nigeria is in a duel just now in Abuja with Mozambique.

OBAMA, OPRAH IN A STATE OF SHOCK.............Oh! my Chicago .

READ MY SIGN
KING PELE OOBAMA ,OPRAHOLYMPIC JUSTICE .

Rio de Janeiro Ahoy.

Pele wins right for BRAZIL

Friday, Oct. 2, 2009.

In seven years we will converge in Rio de Janeiro to galavant on the lovely beaches , dance to the rhythm of the samba , check out the beautiful Brazilian amazons while taking in the proceedings at 2016 Olympics. Rio 2016 is the first time the game will come to south America breaking the vicious circle of bouncing venues between Europe and America. The members of the highly revered and all powerful International Olympic Committee led by frenchman Jaque Rogge broke all permutations and expectations to set a new world order in the global event hosting rights distribution.Madrid, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo contested the right to host the 2016 Summer Olympic Games.

Rio beat Madrid in the last round of voting but the shocker in Copenhagen is the clobbering of Chicago and with the US President Barrack Obama as the chief lobbyist ,First lady Michelle Obama and Super star Oprah Winfrey were among the heavy weights stomping for Chicago . Tokyo Japan was another casualty in the votes cast by senior IOC members in Copenhagen on a very historic October 2 Friday.2009 President of the Tokyo 2016 bid and Tokyo Gov. Shintaro Ishihara's argument on how compact Tokyo was fell on def ears at the 121st IOC session in Copenhagen on Friday.

Chicago was knocked out in the first round and Tokyo was eliminated in the second round.The most powerful man in Olympic circles 82 years old Juan Anthonio Samaranch lobbied fiercely for Madrid but he too gave in to the choice of new Rio de Janeiro.This was Madrid's second consecutive bid, third consecutive for Spain (including Seville for 2008). Madrid received top technical marks and many experts agree would have been an excellent Spain last hosted the l Games in Barcelona in 1992.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula de Silva appealed to the IOC members to vote for RIO at the during 121st International Olympic Committee session at the Bella Center in Copenhagen.His appeal got a major boost by a very emotional Edson Arantes De Nacimento better known as Pele ,The man reputed to be the most visible sports personality alive helped Brazil upstaged the applecart to kick off wild celebrations in Brazil and indeed globally. In Chicago alone half the city already gifted it to Rio .Rio's supporters organised a huge movement called Chicagoans for RIO in defiance of the american agenda. In Africa they wanted Rio to get the nod as that will give weight to a possible African bid in the near future. The pulse in soccer circles is that fans believe if Brazil will ever win the Olympic soccer gold it might just happen in their very own backyard. Only Arica and Antarctica remain as continents that have not been awarded an Olympics.For now, Lets go to BRAAAAZILLLLLL.

ECONOMIC FRAUD

ON THE SOCCER PITCH

by Kessington Osolonye Ajufoh

email: MessiahFM @aol.com

When the eagles play it cost the government and the people of Nigeria a fortune. At a princely appearance fee of $10,000 per player, factor in the coaches and an football federation NFF bereft of ideas and it is quite a bill, go do the math. You see the 2-2 draw was not free and the fact that a winning fee is paid for a draw is questionable. They say they had a pre nuptial and so a deal is a deal but who are the mad men who guaranteed payment without performance and what type of contract has no exception clause? This development in the eyes of reasonable men and of course the law is ludicrous, unacceptable, fraudulent and ultra vires. Again,where is the motivation to fight to win when win or draw you get paid anyway? How can players get paid for just showing up and strolling around the soccer pitch?That we drew with the visiting team in Abuja was enough injury but the insult to the injury is that the Nigerian national team went to bed on the day fire was on the mountain. A curious anti climax to a series of bad decisions.

Those who engineered this type of payment structure for a team that failed to qualify for the last world cup must have vested interest in the money . lacking business acumen, incompetent ,these folks are common thieves. I am pained because this nonsense comes on the heel of the passing of the peoples lawyer Chief Gani Fawehimi May his soul rest in peace. Who will fight for the masses ?, Who will wrong this injustice ? Death you have no shame. Now,this is where the attorney general comes in. Please on behalf of the all Nigerians who on or before match day fasted and prayed for victory but got disappointment instead when the NFF opted to parade a bunch of spoilt brats on vacation.With due respect school team players would not commit such foolishness , Any Nigerian high school soccer team would have fared better. Soccer fans suffered a loss of income , time , palpating and pounding blood pressure watching a bunch of lazy clowns masquerading as the national team of Nigeria. A national team is an army of patriots who fight till the last drop of their blood to achieve the stated goal and objective which is to defend the integrity and national pride these ones are ………(Please fill in the blank space ) . I waited for the Nigerian Football Federation NFF to accept responsibilities and at the least apologize to disappointed fans but what did they do they showed that if Nigeria went to the world cup or not they already got money in the bank and did not care.The went into the usual ritual of money packaging,slicing , sharing and stealing.My evidence of a non repentant premeditated collaboration to steal from the national treasury. The loot was out of the door , "we no go return am". I challenge the FA President Sani Lulu Abdullahi to publish the prematch plan and the post match analysis and the minutes of the meeting were it was agreed to pay $10000 per player for a draw. I expected only two actions from the FF 1. we are sorry Nigerians and 2. The Resignation letters of two honourablemen Sani Lulu Abdulahi and Coach Amodu Shuiabu made available to the press. Well ,integrity is not in the dictionary of this football house. Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Michael Aondoakaa must treat this as urgent and as a matter of national security.

EFCC has worked to do here, those who steal from the national treasury what do we do to them? A board that sat and paid for work not done, for coaches that did not coach for players that did not play at twice the fee of the furnished deliverable has committed an massive economic fraud. Scratch and see what has been going on in the glass house. Will there be a can of worms or not time will tell This dysfunctional FF must be held accountable. They had the temerity to short change a loyal and supportive people. ME I TRUST EFCC…..When a bad show is staged the fans deserve a refund, the people will like to see some justice done.

GOD PLEASE HELP NIGERIA QUALIFY ? HEADACHES FOR NFF PRESIDENT SANI LULU

Hey guys this is math....CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME A TICKET TO SOUTHAFRICA 2010
