This is a big insult to some our heroes like
Tunji Banjo, George Abbey, Osaze Odemwingie, Leon Balogun, William Ekong, etc. Moderators, are you going to ignore this blatant racism and xenophobia?
What about good old reliable Reuben Agboola?
Yes. He deserves a mention too and Carl Ikeme. In fact, the list will be much longer. I cannot believe someone is getting away with this kind of language. We are all up in arms about Donald Trump and are letting someone get away with this kind of racism and xenophobia!
I have reported, I have spoken out, and nothing seems to be done about it.
I have always been a fighter for civil and human rights, and been a staunch opponent for racism, bigotry and chauvinism. I never thought one day that I will be "tired" of fighting. As you can see, its taking me a long time to respond to this thread-- because I am TIRED! I dont understand it. I think this is a no-brainer! Bigotry is unacceptable, in any form. Its that simple. I dont know if the moderators are afraid to punish this because if they do, it will mean that they did not punish their friend, NFAchairman. Or is it that some moderators also share these bigoted views?
I respectfully call for a poll. Please, lets vote-- should there be a zero tolerance for bigotry in all forms?
Yes, that's my buddy!
Keep it up, bro! Don't give up because according to Lucky Dupe; "If you stand for the truth, you will always stand alone." My people, in different words, but the same meaning said the same thing

Chief Ayo, why are you mentioning Uduokhai? The young man hasn't made his "full" decision yet. Just wait until we see him in the SE's Jersey/camp

Odd as it sounds, I doubt this players commitment. Yes, we need the best available, but something in me is so opposed to players who show no commitment, but will only do it for personal gain. This guy might never play for Nigeria after the WC, and will easily be leaned on to miss games like ANC qualifiers, much the same way Kevin Prince Boateng had very little interest in Ghana after their WC.

I'm with Ayo on this. A mixed or foreign born Nigerian is as complete a Nigerian as one whose parents were both born and raised in isiala-Ngwa. The Nigerian Constitution attests to this. Moreso, they almost always have to forego more and adapt even more to be able to perform creditably for the national team.The examples noted above speak volumes.

Yeah, just as two-faced as you braying about loving Nigeria and living in oyibo-land.
