Collection of PVC for the 2023 general elections.
source:https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/568710-inec-announces-dates-for-pvc-collection.html

The Independent Electoral Commission has commenced the issuance of the permanent voters card PVC for those individuals that did their registration in this year 2022, from today 12th December to January 22nd, 2023.  We're all encouraged to go the commission office in all our local government areas or wards to collect our cards through Mondays to Sunday's 9am to 3pm.

This na one thing wey I dey like Nigeria for, we no ever dey get deadline as new new deadline they always pop out at anytime to make sure the masses dey satisfy. This one na welcome development as plenty people never do their PVC and this new deadline go help bring out some new voters. We need the masses for this election or e no go go as we dey expect. Also make INEC also dey at alert as this opportunity wey dem open so fit dey used wrongly by politicians wey wan buy their way into position.

Make dem no go dey approved underage votes now or do wrong PVC for politicians as we dey normally hear the story after election wey we go see dozens of PVC wey dem throwaway. I been hear story for radio wey INEC people talk say politicians dey put them under pressure to make them rig this election. I hope this one no follow reason why them reopen the PVC mata so them fit use am achieved their rigging. Sha make we dey watch how things go play out but I belivyww go get an right this time.

The revenge mission will be carried out by Argentina, because what we know is that they lost in the round of 16 in 2018 to France, at that time France won over Argentina with a score of 4-3, and will meet again in this year's World Cup Final, of course not included.  Does it make sense, that these two countries will meet again in the Final Match, it is certainly difficult to predict bets, it is likely that France will win the World Cup again this year, hopefully this will happen because the French players are more everything than the Argentine players.

While I wish for France to defeat Argentina, let's not rule out the fact that the Argentina teams has been phenomenon in the world cup, their only lost was to Saudi Arabia and has since been on an impressive run both prior to the world cup and in the world cup itself. Their matches had always been captivating to watch and Messi too has turned up for his national side.  The momentum is on the side of Argentina and that's not just because of Messi but the whole squad feels it's their turn to lift the trophy.

This isn't the first time this squad is making it to the finals and this isn't Messi first final either. The previous was lost but something tells me this might just be the time they lift the world cup. I guess that's the reason FIFA is favoring Argentina because they feel this Argentina squad deserve a world cup because of how humble and a wonderful career Messi has had. I still want France to put FIFA to shame though, 4 penalty in a world cup to Messi is a disgrace to the fairness of the game. Mbappe deserve this trophy.

I am proud of Morocco even though they didn't win France. But they dominated the match. Football is a game of luck that means France was lucky to win the match upon all the attacks from the opponent.

Football isn't a game of luck, but sometimes you can become lucky and that happens in every field of life. Morocco didn't use luck to get to the semi finals, they deserved it as they were the better side for almost all the matches they played. They had the best defense in this world cup tournament and conceding just three goals of which two came in their last game to knock them out of the tournament and the other was a home goal in previous match. France on paper are a better team with more experience than Morocco so it's no surprise they won. They're the current champions and are the best team to defeat Argentina (who has been favoured all through this tournament).

France are more like an African team and I can relate with them so they're my obvious pick to win it all. The goodnews I read online was that Real Madrid has given Benzema a go ahead to participate in the finals. This is goodnews as France has additional support if they find it difficult to break the Argentina defense which I don't think it'll be hard to achieved.

Abegy my people make una take this news serious. CBN d do everything in their power to make our currency appreciate for value against dollar. First na changing of naira notes, limiting day and weekly transactions and now they don come up with this one. Just within 2months to the end of this present tenure. Anyway, dem don try. If this can make our naira come alive again. I support am

Misplaced priority, wetin concern spraying of Naira to the price deprecating. When dem no go focus energy on wetin dey important na things like dis we go dey see. Them no know say dem dey destroy the job of minters. First na POS and now this, instead of carrying jobs them dey destroy the ones we been dey use hold body. Them dun implement cashless policy dat one never do them. After all the surfer we dey go through, the small things wey dey give us joy them wan take that one too. Spraying at occasion is a way of life of a typical Nigeria and that shoudn't be taken away.

They're better ways to tackle this whole thing and that's taking Nigerians from a consumption nation to a productive one and not implementing laws everywhere. Na those laws we go chop? Your people dey surfer and the best the government can come out with is laws like this and say they have done their best. The APC government is the worst thing to ever happen to Nigeria and hopefully they don't come back in 2023 because it'll be deadly.

Infact an incident like this also happened in the Portugal vs Morocco match in the Moroccan penalty box when Bruno fernandes (if I don't forget) was fouled by one of the Moroccan players. However, it was declared not a violation.

Now you can see how things are playing out. Guess what, the game Portugal played against Morocco, they had 5 Argentina referee in that match so how do you intend they called that against Morocco when they'll unconsciously, be against Portugal winning the world cup and getting eliminated so the chances of their God (Messi) increases of winning the tournament. No doubt Messi has been brilliant in this world cup but when everything just plays into your favor, it becomes suspicious and for a fact that a referee officiating a game that you're playing in says he hate giving you yellow cards just says it all (this is in regards to the handball that Messi committed against the Netherlands but wasn't booked).

FIFA wants Messi to win this world cup and so did the hosting officials, FIFA is corrupt and at this level they're no longer hiding it. They should just give the World cup to him instead of stressing players when they know they won't allow them play a fair game. At this point, the whole game is getting disgusting and I stop watching yesterday game immediately that penalty was given. It changed the whole momentum. Atleast today we'll be having a fair game between France and Morocco.

His name has been called with Bayern Munich very much. Even though I don't wait for them to make an offer in January, I think that they might make an enquiry for his transfer fee next summer. I don't expect Bayern Munich to move on without bringing a top striker before next season.

I don't think Harry Kane wants to leave the premier league and I won't advice him to do so as well, he should chany club and that we all support because Tottenham has been holding him back for years. Harry Kane given another top club same performance as he's giving Tottenham will see that club win countless of trophys. Clubs like Chelsea or even Manchester city would had been idea for him but he missed his chances at Manchester City. There were rumors of them wanting him before they finally went for Haaland.

Chelsea won't be a bad club for Harry Kane in the premier league, Chelsea are in need of a finisher and if the Ronaldo rumors aren't true then Harry Kane should approach Chelsea for a contract. He'll do very well at Chelsea as Harry Kane can play all role of a striker that Chelsea needs. He can drop dip to midfield to take the ball and create chances and also stay upfront as a typical striker. At Chelsea his goals will mean something instead of the meaningless goals he has been scoring for Tottenham as it meant nothing to them.
2007  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 14, 2022, 06:16:02 AM
The penalty has ruin Croatia strategy because after Messi goal Croatia was unable to performing well apparently Argentina know how to counter defensive strategy from Croatia so 3-0 is decent score for them considering Argentina performance was outstanding last night and in this match too Messi has made new records that he is Argentina player with the most assists in world cup along with Maradona and 5 goals during this tournament makes his record equal to Mbappe however this is Messi second final match and looking forward to see Argentina upcoming opponent today

The penalty truely ruined the whole game, we were having a very strong contented game that both sides were looking determined to win with Croatia having a little more momentum but everything changed after that early penalty that was givens to Argentina, and frankly speaking that wasn't a penalty. What do you expect the keeper to do at that point when he came out to block the ball. He didn't make any attempt to foul the player instead the player saw him and went towards his direction then they both collided.

From the way the world cup has been going I won't be surprised if Argentina wins it, they have been the most favored side in this world cup with 4 penalties in 6 games and that has been the most at any world cup.  What's even the function of the VAR if decision like this can't be reviewed. The keeper stood his ground, the ball wasn't even hit with enough force to go into the net and was easily clearable. Tha penalty spoiled the whole game yesterday and took out all the energy from the Croatian players, they didn't deserve such treatment just to favor Messi.
2008  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 14, 2022, 06:04:33 AM
In fact, for the problem of developing strikers, Chelsea always fail at that and not only Ziyech is not given much playing time but even expensive players like Lukaku they fail to maximize it and of course with several other big players before that Tuchel threw away because he failed also be there.

This was the issue we the fans were angry with Thomas Tuchel, he's very stubborn and don't change his style of play even when important players aren't been impactive in th team due to the style of play the team is playing. Thankfully we have let go of him now and the team is under the management of Graham Potter who's going to make this squad happy and playing good football. The likes of Hakim ziyech was also getting some playing time before the world cup tournament came along so that'll continue as the league restarts.

We can all see how impactive the Chelsea players were at the world cup and players like Hakim ziyech and Kovačić made it all the way to the semi's which one of them could go all the way to win it as Morocco still has a chance of winning the world cup. Graham Potter does has the squad to compete for the title and with the break of the world cup, I hope he has gotten enough time to blind with the players that stayed back to train as they weren't called up or their nation didn't qualify.
2009  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: December 14, 2022, 05:52:32 AM
Ronaldo will choose a club that is still competing in the Champions League, he can still be included in the squad because the team he previously defended was not registered in the Champions League. Regarding rumors of where Ronaldo will move, it will soon be answered in the next few weeks. Ronaldo needs peace to get rid of his sadness after Portugal was knocked out of the World Cup.

Then he should choose Chelsea if Chelsea officially comes for him, he has to let go of all those rivalry and loyalty bullshit. Already that have cause him to not have a successful ending career, assuming he went to Manchurian city as it was earlier started, we won't be here today discussing this because he would had been happy and playing good football just like his counterpart messi. Ronaldo's poor form at the world cup had contributions from his time at Manchester united and how it ended, he wasn't in form because he didn't get good playing times and the environment was toxic to him as he stated in those interview.

Meanwhile Messi was busy enjoying his time and not having much work of carrying the whole team on his shoulder since he had other superstar playing with him. Ronaldo needs a club he can relax and enjoy good football, Chelsea don't relay on strikers to score their goals so it might just be a perfect retiring ground for him and also we're still in the champions league which we're aiming to win.

Argentina win today has made the chances of Morroco and Africa winning the World Cup smaller. If Crotia would have gone to the finals and Morroco eventually survives France, it will not be a difficult task for Morroco.
But as it stands now, even if Morroco tries to win France, the final will still be very difficult for them.
But I sincerely wish them well but i didn't think this will be the World Cup of the underdogs

It's already the World Cup of the underdogs, as many underdogs showed the world that they shouldn't be overlooked as football is a game anybody can win provided there's determination and luck on their side. Morocco can beat France and Morocco can beat Argentina as well. Croatia has just been lucky this world cup and hasn't won any of their knockout games, just been hanging in until the fulltime is played and they go to penalty stages but Morocco has won games people taught were impossible to win. Don't think If Morocco somehow meet Argentina at the finals that they won't give in all they got knowing chances like this mightn't present itself again in the future.

Morocco has already defeated all odds against them, today as they play France both the African continent and the Arabic countries are all routing for them. The should go make us proud as they defeated our African brother that denied their root to go play for France. Things like this are what makes the Africa teams weak because our best exports has been bought by the foreigners to play for them while we settle for second bests.

Cashless Economy Wahala
The whole thing come make me dey think say e be like say this cashless economy thing get as e be o. Because e just go against wetin I feel say na how cashless economy suppose be. How I go pay extra charge because say I wan use POS pay for wetin I buy?
How una see am. Anybody don experience this kind thing before?

Nothing dey wrong there with paying extra charge or na because say dem ask you na him make u dey reason am? Man must find way survive, na there own choppings be dat. You forget say you dey pay extra charge steady anything you use your bank do transfer or recieved transfer or na because bank no need your permission to collect that one na him make you no dey reason am?

Also @Coyster e get one reply you give me wey I dun forget where e dey to quote am but make I tell you. You can withdraw as much as you want but there's a charge. This POS businesses them need go register with government so them fit dey pay tax, we aren't paying taxes enough in Nigeria especially all this small small business wey government for use the hold body. All this policy go help enforce that. The POS operators can withdraw more than the minimum and pay charges then continue their business.

By the time dey dun pay those charges wella, e go wey dem and them go increase withdrawal charges, this one go enforce people to go cashless since dem dey claim say dem get coconut head. Personally I no fit remember when last I buy something with cash, all my activities this year has been cashless. E no hard to run am.

I'm sure the story is just a hoax.
Why did you have to fabricate a story to come impress us with.

People do it all the time, people see the internet as a means to present themselves as something they're not. Hardly do you find people telling the truth over the internet that's why you're advise to be skeptical about everything you read online, it's just like the online traders we see all over social media claiming to be professional traders and making outrageous gains meanwhile they barely know how to trade but just love the online attention they get of been rich and famous.

We have similar stories on the forum, if you read through this thread now you'll find out that majority of the stories been told here are  just hoax. Usually thread like this which are generic in nature are always full of hoax stories since they're no means to verify any story been told here. Be skeptical about everything you read unless those with some backing through evidences.

While you consider it the worst month, I'm look at the situation with a positive mindset because it's the month that gave us more discount for pushing of Bitcoin. The whole FTX situation would had been easily avoid if you listen to the advise of not keeping your coins on exchange. I don't think anyone who didn't have funds on FTX was affected in regards to them losing access to their funds and for the decrease in the prices of Bitcoin and other altcoins. That's just the volatility of the market doing its thing and if you hold until your Bitcoin, tomorrow you'll be smiling as the price will be worth more than what it's now.

Newbies seeing this post should focused on accumulating Bitcoin as this opportunity mightn't present itself again. Each time the market give you a discount to accumulate Bitcoin, grab that opportunity with both hands and ignore any negatively spreading around. I sympathize with the affected victims but they should learn from this experience and secured their funds better in the future.

Cristiano Ronaldo have cut off his previous salary received from Manchester United if want joining with new team for second half season, but if reach deal with AS Roma he loss opportunity playing at Champion League, but still possibility with Champion League team like Napoli and Chelsea are interested to sign him.

I don't think the salary is the problem here, first Ronaldo need to find a team that suits his style of play which is him been the target man and everybody playing for him to score. We can see from the world cup that he still got it in him. His finishes are still sharp but not as sharp as when he was younger. He did score some goals that if they were to stand and not been ruined out for offside, it would had been brilliant goals.

I think Chelsea can take care of Ronaldo's salary quite easily, we don't have much players on high salary at the club at the moment and the likes of Kante will be leaving soon as well. With his intentions of taking a pay cut, Chelsea can afford Ronaldo with or without the pay cut. Ronaldo also has other benefits that come with signing him and Chelsea would benefit more if the coach can work hand in hand with Ronaldo to revive him.

the advantage of the moroccans is that almost the whole stadium is supporting the africans and they are pushed even more.

Morocco has the support of both the African fans and Arabic fans. They're been supported by almost everyone in the stadium and they're making good use of that privilege. Morocco hasn't played the best football at the tournament but they have always found a way to win games. The biggest challenge will be on the 14th against the current champions. That match is going to be a most watched as France will be looking for a ticket to go defend their title while Morocco would be hoping on continuing their fairytale at the world cup.

What's going to be interesting about this match is the fact most France players in the squad has African origin so this is going to feel like an Africans semifinals. The physicality and skills will both be present on that day but we'll be routing for Morocco all the way from African

Wonder if chelsea under potter getting worse than the tuchel era ... would the board keeping him as a head coach and giving potter more to to build the team as a whole in long term ? I doubt they could do it ... the fans would pushing really hard to look for someone else as a head coach once we fed up.

They have spent quite a lot enough on players for tuchel , doubt chelsea would splash another fund this time around.

The new owners do understand that they're in the investment stage at the club and shoudn't be expecting any output if they don't invest more into getting Graham Potter his own team. The prayers currently at the club aren't that of Graham Potter but Thomas Tuchel. In the transfer window, many players has to be let off like the likes of Pulisic, jorginho, etc. They should all be sold and give Graham Potter the funds to build his own team so there won't be any excused.

I don't think the new owners are scared of investing into the team, they gave Graham Potter a long-term contract for a reason and that's because they have a long-term plan for the manager. Already they're extending key players contract for long term because they want to build the team around this players.
