It was a goalless first half between Spain vs Italy. The two teams are of the same strength and none of them wants to allow their opponents to take advantage of them. Spain had good clear chance which was to be a goal. One was a good header chance by Williams, which went to the left side of the goal post.

The second half should be more exciting than this because I expect goals to come in from any of the teams. I can't really tell who will score first in this match because Scammacca also missed a good scoring opportunity.
The first half there were no goals and both played perfectly and I think both were quite difficult, Spain attacked more than Italy in the first half which remained with a draw.

The second half started with Spain being more aggressive in their attacks, they had far more possession of the ball, in view of this situation it looks like Spain will get a goal faster than Italy if the situation continues like this, Italy is quite exhausted in this second half they continue to be attacked and there is no resistance that has a far greater chance of scoring a goal, almost fully running half the field.

And as I type this Riccardo has scored for Spain, it's very good and the score is 1-0 in favor of Spain, I think I'm going to get a win tonight from my bet on Spain, looking back at the match starting to heat up a bit maybe Italy's players are a bit provoked to take revenge.
It was an own goal by R.Calafiori after Williams took a cross which hit Calafiori's leg and went into the goal post. Spain is still dominating the game and I don't think that Italy will be able to withstand Spain pressure. I will say that goal was a lucky goal and Spain have not scored any goal of their own.

Italy on the other hand is somehow allowing Williams to feel free forgetting that he is a dangerous player. It is not yet over until the final whistle and we might still see some surprises in the last 25 minutes of thr match.
If not for that defensive error, I'm sure this game would have ended draw, because the both teams are not too impressive with their playing style, this is a game a lot of persons have expected to be very much intriguing but it's not looking like that, although Spain have been a little bit on the neck of the Italian defence with Nico Williams seriously displaying an incredible dribbling skills upfront for  Spain. The Italians seems not to have that individual quality on the attack to help them make the difference, which is one of the major ingredients Spain has as their own advantage in this game. The Italian keeper is one person that has been a life saver for the Italian defence, if not the goals would have been more than one, he has made brilliant saves in this game, it was just unfortunate for him that that defensive error was out of touch from him.

My choices are Spain and England anyway though. But I don't expect any of them to win by at least a 2-goal difference. I think both of them will have a competitive ending.  Smiley

Dermank has a relatively small chance of winning, but they have the opportunity to surprise England in the sense that Denmark will not give up and will not make it easy for England.
Two goals might be scored. It could also be more than 2 goals if Denmark and England play openly throughout the match.
One half in and it's 1-1, still pretty good for both sides, and both are pushing hard for a win tonight, so far in the first half I've noticed they've been pretty even in terms of possession and play, although Demark have been a bit more dominant than England but I see it as a fair draw.

Hjulman and Kane have been the key to both teams getting goals for the time being, something interesting might happen in the second half now, they have read and seen how their opponents attack and defend, there should be some evaluation going on to get more goals.
Both are still equally strong and both are also very solid teams, yes Hjulman in the 34th minute equalized after Kane managed to get a Goal in the 18th minute of this first half, the chances of winning still seem to lean towards England in my opinion, the second half is a big question where it is indeed a fierce match, Denmark cannot get a draw or lose this match against England, they must get points and go to the top of group C, meanwhile if England wins it will be more free with 6 points from two matches won, and in the future they will be more very confident to dominate.


BTW I am quite curious about Kane whether he will be the top scorer in this Euro, because he is one of the best goal scoring machines I have ever recognized.
The second half has really been tough for England, the winning of this game is not leaning towards England anymore, as Denmark are fiercely confronting the defence of England, Denmark have literally saturated the entire midfield with the Red jersey and are making it very difficult for England to get a clear ball control because of how defensive they've been playing, it's looking like a draw game for me as it's over 90 minutes now. Denmark are really resilient with their outburst with this game from what I'm seeing here, I wasn't even expecting this sort of resistance from them at all.

Let's just wait and see if Harry Kane will come out as one of the top scorers for this competition at the end, though he has the capacity to do that.

Whatever therapy that's probably applicable to a person who needs it, I believe it won't correct the underlying problems associated with gambling. We need financial literacy to educate about money and finances management, because without that learnings every person won't value money.
This is a very toxic thing about gambling perspectives of an individual who still choose gambling over finances. They always expect that their money will be multiplied twice or thrice depending on how they project a specific odds or probable winning strategy that still has no assurance.
The truth is that, most gamblers don't know when they've developed a bad gambling habit, to them everything seems alright with them, so is only when you've visited the therapist or a psychologist that it can either be identified if you've developed a healthy gambling lifestyle or not, so yes I agree with the OP about meeting a therapist, is not only for people that have gambling addiction problems, in fact as a regular gambler it is really advisable to sometimes do a check on yourself at least on a quarterly basis, It is at that point that the therapist will tell you that whatever you are doing to double or triple your money should be done on a regulated basis, so you as gambler can learn how to control your mindset.

As I expected, Switzerland will definitely be able to turn things around. Because the match is still quite early and anything can still happen. The goal scored by Xherdan Shaqiri in the 26th minute allowed Switzerland to breathe a sigh of relief again. Because now the score has changed to a draw again, namely 1-1. It would be very exciting if Scotland also got a goal back and Switzerland equalized again. But I'm sure it's Switzerland who will score again. And I think the minimum score in this match is 1-2. Switzerland continued to dominate this match and continued to create good chances. And I think the Scottish defense will also start to get overwhelmed and make some mistakes that allow Switzerland to score again.

What I think is that if Scotland doesn't defend well enough, they could score another goal. The Swiss are going from strength to strength in the game, they can hardly be stopped The player was a bit Ahead there Now things with the referees are being very strict, and that's good  , we have a much Cleaner and more pleasant football, although when a table football team you have to think to shout it down because you have to wait to see if they're worth it , because now the sensors and everything else can throw everything back.
Of course Switzerland had lot of chance to score, the last goal they scored was disallowed for offside if not the goals would have gone above that, Scotland too had good chances as the possession between both teams for me was 50/50. I agree with you Scotland had a poor defence. The golden moment for me was that wonderful goal from the big man himself shagiri, that goal was really spectacular, Manuel akanji too was able to bring in his wealth of experience to help the Switzerland team and was even voted as the man of the match. With this point shared, Switzerland are now second on the group with four points behind Germany.

Have you experienced where someone went an extra mile just to prove himself right because he doubted?

While we all thrives on our Bitcoin investments regarding its  lucrativeness, we actually wish that our loved ones can find the opportunity feasible and also invest on it just as we do.
For some cautious reasons, we do not want to discuss about it with them but we still wish they cou embrace the system in one way or another.

Out of two friends I introduced into the Bitcoin during the halving, one successfully Invested and the other one did not. In a few week ago we experienced over $71K in Bitcoin market price, the newly Investor friend of mine approached the other one who did not invest expressing how lucrative Bitcoin investment is.
The guy was still in doubt saying it is all fallacies that the guy is just trying to convince him.
So in other for this newly invested friend to prove the legitimate and lucrativeness of Bitcoin, he opened his Crypto wallet for the doubted guy in explaining how he bought Bitcoin when it was $65 and now it is $71K yet further increase is being expected.

So the doubted guy wowed over it that his friend has such amount of money?

Just by past weekend this doubted guy came asking if am I aware that the other of his friend has a lot of money in his Bitcoin wallet? And I ask how he knew about it then he explained in details.
I was surprised and felt disappointed of my newly Investors friend because I could wonder further people that doubted guy would tell about the guys funds in his wallet he can linger to danger that even if this doubted guy does not have evil thoughts on him, others being aware of it could be.

I think this my newly investor friend was out of pride and just wanted to make this other guy feel regret but does not know the dangerous implications he has just made upon himself and his Bitcoin assets.
It is unfortunate for investors who lives this life of proving themselves to people just to make them believe on their investment.

Your bitcoin is your private asset, you don't need to show people your assets just to show off or make them see you differently, that's too dangerous because your endangering your life. It can as well be that he is showing his friends the profit he has made so far from his bitcoin investment out of excitement, without any intent to intimidate them, but human beings in their typical nature will always read meaning out of everything. This just goes out to tell us that, whatever we are doing that involves profit making, we should just mind who we share our certain personal information with.
386  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to Make Money in Crypto and not lose it as beginner on: June 19, 2024, 04:01:36 PM
I have mentored over 100 people in crypto. Some of them think Crypto is a get-rich scheme because they heard someone made $1m from a project. However, most of the time, they get into crypto and get their hands burnt along the way.

Here is my suggestions if you want to make money from crypto;

1. Knowledge first
2. Spot trading.
3. Airdrop Farming
4. Investing.

1. Knowledge First:
This is foundational. If you don't have this you are liable to fall to scam. You need to learn about wallet, exchanges, dexes, and conviction and patience.

2. Spot Trading :
This is a tangible skill that differentiate you from another person. With this you know how to make money trading. But ensure you stay away from futures trading. Use spot trading to start.

3. Airdrop Farming:
This is a low risk way to make money in crypto. Learn the popular airdrop in crypto space. Currently Telegram mini app farming is what is reigning.

4. Investing:
What will help you here is physiological skills like emotion management and patience. You will also need to learn when to invest and when to take profit.

To conclude this, you can learn this from credible YouTube channels and Coinmarketcap/Coingecko education channels.
You've outlined brilliant points on crypto activities and how to make profit from it, I agree with your line of thoughts, especially with the first one that has to do with knowledge. You will definitely become a lost person if you don't understand the knowledge involved in cryptocurrency, the technique and the intricacies involved in cryptocurrency can only be surmounted if you build a knowledge around it, I for one was a novice in the crypto space before I started developing little by little on the things I know now. The Number 4 point is really needed when you're involved with the activities of number 2, because those are the skills you need to be successful in spot trading.
387  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am begining on a short term investment. on: June 19, 2024, 03:38:55 PM
As a beginner to this bitcoin market, I have understood that long term investing and holding is most beneficial to investors that short term holding.
But I being a beginner, I might not be affordable to hold too long because I have read about investors holding their coins for over 4 years.
Although I might be reprogrammed to long term investment in the future but I need to be practically convinced in reality based on what the market hold for Investors on long term and short terms.
As being speculated of all cryptocurrencies, they are all volatile so I am set to take my profits whenever I can and then the outcome potentials while I am Investing in this bitcoin industry would determine if I will have to hold for long. I don't think I will listen to all that advices of holding longer. We are only here to make profits and face our today's challenges and also prepares for future challenges. So I don't think that investors on the short term goals are at the wrong side because the Speculation of long term holding is excessively making it feel like short term Investors are on the wrong decision
as much as we have long time investors, so also we have short time investor in bitcoin investment. The short time investor don't really want to give in to too much volatility or wait long for any uncertainty with their investment, hence they get a certain percent of their return in investment, they will quickly take out their profit with an option to invest again maybe later in the future. The long time bitcoin investment, is that person that is ready to wait and go through all the rigorous uncertainty and volatility of the market just to get a huge return on his investments, or supposedly a person who just want to keep his bitcoin as an asset that will continue to yield profit for him and maybe pass it on to his children as his legacy. So depending on which side of the divide you want to fall in as an investor, is within your prerogative to choose what you want.

Portugual is here to win the cup not only here to participate.

Thrilling win at the end of the game with the youngest player scoring the winning goal.

Can CR7 win another cup after the 2016 euro win?
Portugal definitely had a difficult game tonight despite having star players on their side. Portugal where initially losing 1-0, before they came from behind to equalise the game and they later won. Czech played defensively because of the pressure from Portugal but the pressure didn't come as too much of a threat as Czech where able to still find ways to return the energy back to the defence line of Portugal. it was a lucky win for Portugal as far as concerned. Though so far with the competition, the underdogs haven't given too much of a room for the big guys to overshadow them. Ronaldo didn't get too much of opportunities to score except for this last one that he wasn't able to head the ball and conceicao was able to score as a result of rebounce.

So tay e affect many of our business men and women for society.

390  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dangerous insights on bitcoin Investor on: June 18, 2024, 04:57:36 PM
Ignorant of lack of knowledge to the highest level.
A family called the police operatives on their son who seems to be doing financially well while investing on the bitcoin.
The way about the young bitcoin Investor portrays himself happens to be not supposed to be affordable by their son of age 21 considering the poor background they originated from and they don't see the young boy working to earn such living.

There was a misconception by the parents due to their ignorance about cryptocurrencies and how rumours has been speculating in their localities that bitcoin or cryptocurrencies are all ventures for internet fraudsters which they found unfortunate that their son has engaged himself on it after several times they asked the young boy to go and find a job out there so he could make living out of instead.
Instead of the young man to have a constructive explanation to his uneducated parents probably to say he's working on a remote job, he told the old folks that he's a bitcoin Investor of which they got frightened out of the concept.

They called the police on him and knowing that the police would go in details in tracing his source of income as claimed, he was subjected to be transparent to the police and he was investigated and was found non guilty of engaging on the internet fraudulence as the parents might have sighted.
So what justified the young boy was that bitcoin is a legalized technology in the society only that there are still awkward people who're not convenient with the system.

This has to be a great lession to those of us who are not alternated with other source of incomes aside bitcoin or the AltCoins that while we're constantly being seated at home without a scale of going in and out probably like attending to the designated places of where we earns income and yet living comfortably even more better than those who claims to be working classes that eyes are being watching at us and people around would be much sensitive and desperate to know the source of our incomes since they could always have us always being at home.
Let's play this bitcoin investment smartly and save ourselves from insighting dangers.
The poor social status of the guys parents and lack of proper understanding of the new world order is what is affecting them, considering the way the parents of the young man are and there level of understand, there was no explanation that young man would have given to them that would have been satisfied enough for them given their level of understand or knowledge especially with the fact that the only thing that could make their child do well at his age was internet fraud in their own thinking. But the cruelt part was to call for the arrest of the young man, that's too much of escalation taken too far, at least there should be enlightened other family members and closed relative that could explain the job of the young man to the parents, so as to avoid him  been accosted.

Yes Im waiting crisis when i can buy finally land and Property everything is so expensive.
But war will make better prices in every bad there is something good war it's not good thing but at least you could buy something cheaper after war.

OP you should change your line of thinking, war benefits no one because of the carnage and wanton destruction that comes with it, you yourself don't have any guarantee that you will survive the war so as to enable you buy those cheap things you're proposing. Is better to call for a state of emergency on your countries economy to help improve the healthiness of your country's economy so citizens could be able to have good purchasing power and prices of goods can be steady, because calling for crisis to bring forth an opportunity to help you buy properties on a cheaper rate looks parochial to me and shouldn't be encouraged.

I agree with you; the biggest surprises of the tournament so far have been in Group E. If Belgium suffers another defeat, they may not be eliminated because they can still qualify out of the group as the third-placed team. However, this situation would make their job harder. Considering today’s performances, it is possible that Ukraine will finish last in the group, and Belgium will end up third.
This is just their first game and I think it is way too early to judge them base on this performance today alone, The game is still open and Belgium can still come out top in their group if they win all their remaining matches from here despite that they lost in today's game but the correction may come in their games ahead, and I still doubt Belgium won't qualify for next stage of this competition.
Yes I agree with you that Belgium can still come behind to top the group as this is just the first leg of the group stage level, but there is one thing I have observed so far for all the games that have been played so far, those big football Nations that are always good in every tournament, are literally struggling to maintain a win or score more goals, take England vs Serbia for instance, that is a game we would have thought England could have scored more goals but the game ended 1-0 in favour of England, France where only able to win Austria with just 1 goal, these are countries i would have expected more goals from considering the calibers of players they have. anyways it was good to see n'golo kanté win man of the match for the France game against Austria, it has been a while I saw him play.

Belgium vs Slovakia

Belgium XI: Casteels; Castagne, Faes, Debast, Carrasco; De Bruyne, Mangala, Onana, Doku; Trossard, Lukaku.

Slovakia XI: Dúbravka; Pekarík, Vavro, Skriniar, Hancko; Kucka, Lobotka, Duda; Schranz, Bozeník, Haraslín.

Slovakia are leading with a goal scored by Ivan Schranz, this group E is given me a shock, I hope is not what am thinking let wait till the end.

Belgium are really having a hard time to equalize this game, they've already had two goals disallowed, the last one that was disallowed was the most painful, as Lukaku was able to score from the 18 yard box.
However no one will expect this kind of result from Belgium, I believe even the Slovakia fans are still in disbelieve, because they weren't expecting to win Belgium.
For the two games that have been played so far, the underdogs are really taking on the big guys unaware, earlier it was Romania beating Ukraine 3-0, now we have Slovakia winning almighty Belgium 1-0 in their first group encounter, gamblers are really going to feel the brunt of this result.

Romania vs Ukraine


🇷🇴 Romania XI: Nita; Ratiu, Dragusin, Burca, Bancu; Razvan Marin, Marius Marin, Stanciu; Man, Dragus, Coman

🇺🇦 Ukraine XI: Lunin; Konoplia, Zabarnyi, Matviyenko, Zinchenko; Shaparenko, Stepanenko, Sudakov; Tsygankov, Dovbyk, Mudryk

Here we go for group E, Ukraine has been good against Romania and also have the chances of winning this match, checking from their last five matches Ukraine have won three matches, a draw and a lost while Romania only won one, 3 draw and a lost, so let see who win.
Head to Head, it looks like Ukraine will indeed be the favorite in this match. And now the match has started and only entered the 6th minute. And yes, the Ukrainians were able to immediately control the match quite well. But I see that Romania has a counter-attack scheme that could endanger Ukraine's goal. So it is hoped that Ukraine will not be careless this time. Because it looks like Romania cannot be underestimated. And Romania is also starting to reduce Ukraine's dominance of ball possession. I think this match can be a fairly even match. Ukraine will probably only win by a narrow score in this match.
Who can imagine that Romania will be thrashing Ukraine 3-0, it was almost on everyone's lips that Ukraine are the favourite to win, but however Nicolae stanciu brought out his wealth of experience as the Romanian captain to help put his country on the front line. Yeah I agree with you, Romania try to put up a counter attack against on the Ukrainians and they where able to use that counter attack tactic to subdue Ukraine midfield power, because the Central midfield is controlled by the Ukrainians. Though Ukraine have gotten good chances to score especially with those shot on target, but they've really been unfortunate.

I thought I should drop this quick question here:

And that's the message on the t-shirt in the image, well I don't know but I feel it would be nice to here some forum members thought how possible is this that maybe someday if not today that Bitcoin can actually be the solution to fixing the money, that's if you deem it fit to conclude that there is something actually wrong the monetary system 😁.

Image source: Bitcoin magazine @ X.COM
As for the inscriptions on the shirt, It not late to still explore the Sea, there are still some islands yet to be discovered, a lot of discoveries are yet to be made on the Ocean floor, so it better late than never.
Same thing goes for the outer space, astronauts are on a daily basis discovering new inventories on each planet, however if he feels the need to discover something new, he should get ready to join the next NASA team going out of space. Meanwhile let's look at the crux of the matter, the money problem of the world can be fixed with bitcoin to a large extent, the reason is bitcoin doesn't give in to inflation, as your investment grows with a certain percentage of interest over time, unlike the fiat we deposit with the bank, so if it can be made a legal tender in most countries of the world, then to a large extent the money problem will be fixed to a reasonable point.

Are any of you betting on England for this match? If you are - you will most likely win it.
Jude Bellingham is crazy - he's been a really good player for a lot of both club and national level games. I know he is the most expensive English player at the moment - of course his market value is proportional to the quality he has. Really - Real Madrid are lucky to have him at the club, he is the difference.

Gareth Southgate seems to have great difficulty rotating his players - he has a lot of good players on the bench, while he also has good players on the pitch. What a really good line up - but unfortunately, Trent Alexander-Arnold was withdrawn first. Bokayo Saka followed, replaced by Jarrod Bowen - Harry Kane may need to be given time off to be replaced by Ollie Watkins or Cole Palmer.

A lot of people will definitely bet for England to win Serbia, which came out correctly. For me the English team didn't play to the expectations of many, Serbia nearly equalized the game because of the way they played, England where Just managing the entire situation to maintain that 1-0 difference till the end of the match with all the stars they have both the ones sitting in the bench and the ones playing.
The good thing is, they've been able to secure their first three points, but Gareth Southgate should come up with a better tactical formation for their next match, because I didn't really feel the impact of some of the big guys during the game.

Slovenia - Denmark

Both teams have an average squad of players, they don't have great players and looking at the history of games in which both teams have faced each other, I would say that Denmark has a greater chance of coming out of this game with a victory, in the last clashes involving both teams, Denmark had 2 wins and 1 draw and with this odds of 1.67 in favor of Denmark, I didn't hesitate to bet on Denmark to win.

Serbia - England

 the difference in cast is too big. but england doesn't have a good coach, that's why it's a team that doesn't inspire confidence, even the bookmakers are giving 1.48 odds if england wins because they don't look at england as being a great team that could win this I play with some ease, but I still decided to bet on England to win the game. I made a multibet bet



I wanted to add all of today's games but I was late because I had gone out, but now that I'm back I ran to place a bet. I hope that England can at least beat this opponent, if England can't win today then they will be showing that they are not strong enough to reach the final, at least that will be my opinion if they don't win today
Denmark seems to have a better squad than Slovenia, Christian Eriksen has been able to show that he is one of the big boys on the field of play by scoring an opener for Denmark during the first half. The both teams in the minds eye  looks to be on equal level, but Denmark has been proving everyone wrong, they've had more goal attempts than Slovenia, they've had more ball possession, More so They've played for over 65 minutes, yet  Denmark is still leading with one goal, they just need to score another to secure their victory, because looking at how the match is going, they have to potential to score more.
398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set a specific bankroll before gambling or not? on: June 16, 2024, 04:39:23 PM
"Bankroll" is usually a term used in sports betting. From what I've read in some of the threads here, we need to be disciplined in managing our bankroll, typically betting only 5% to 10% per wager. So I'm curious: do bettors here really set up a bankroll first before they start gambling, or do they just gamble whenever they have available money?

Please share your experience whether positive or negative and what you learn from it.
I don't set up a bankroll on my bet account, I only gamble whenever I have money and series of games I've outlined to play for that week, hence there is no money available with me I don't bother myself. If you  bankroll or there is an available balance always in your account, it will always pushes you bet, even games that ordinarily don't have favourable odds, and for me, that is not a healthy gambling lifestyle. One issue that comes with bankroll is the discipline involved to not go above your limit, however upon predicting series of games, you might find out the percentage you always use is not enough to push up the odds for you to win big, then you see yourself adjusting your own limit as against your initial plan. but then every gambler has his own pattern but bankrolling is not my thing.

But I disagree with them, that good people still live long to eat the fruit of their labor which they can be part of the good people in the society to eat the good fruits that attached to good people in the society, and they will live long to see the development and good of the society.

I told them that bad people use to die young in the society too, because death didn't recognize good person or bad person on earth, but if the death is coming, it is better to meet you in a good character because people around you will going to talk about your good on earth and you will surely get rewards from heaven too. What is your options on this topic.
Death doesn't select your behavior, wether your good or bad. There are a lot of people in the society that are good who still live long. Hence your into bad things, it is always likely that you might not live long, because your evil deeds will always hurnt you. Surely it is good to have good character, not even because of what people will say when you die, but good character will definitely be speak for you and your household even when your alive, some times the rewards are Earthly before your ascension to heaven.

The clamor of the citizens on the cutdown of cost of leadership sound too strange to our leaders and their way of policy and their stomach greed desire why depriving the poor masses their rights and benefits, how can a government who is not able to pay above 62k minimum wage be buying two private jet for president and vice as well houses for leaders who already have private jet even the past previous left those garjet behind the seat and they are approving new one which the money is to be borrow by world bank and title it road infrastructure for rural area as the purpose, while it's for private jet and the personal House, my question is are we the citizens really human whose eyes is opened or our leaders sees us as blind human and why is it that we are easily deceive and allow them to make their way without any interference like others nation with Africa whose do stand against government policy that kick against it citizens because we most time see the western not been part of the third world countries, whereas some African countries are getting it right  please your contribution is necessary.
This is a brilliant summation of the current reality of our country Nigeria.
However, to understand the inaction of the masses one has to put into consideration how the current government got into power. Tinubu ran a purely ethnic politics, divide and conquer. He successfully tore the frail fabric of unity we had left. The igbos and Yorubas can never truly heal from what was perpetuated in the name of election campaign.
The man called our president has successfully weaponized every institution in the land. We no longer run a three arm of government anymore. We have a legislature that is eager to pass any bill by the president into law without scrutiny, we also have a judiciary which is eager to give judgment in favor of this man provided he keeps their coffers full.
Now back to the citizens. You need unity to challenge the government, without it no result can come out of any protest. The Yorubas won't protest because it's their brother, the Igbos won't because they would be made the face and scapegoat of the protest, the Hausas are not bothered because power goes back to the North after Tinubu.
And even if they were to be united the ruling party is willing to cause mass human rights violation to hold on to power. And sadly no one deserves to die for Nigeria. Case in point "EndSars" they died for nothing, nothing changed, people still voted for the people that killed their brothers in arms.
