Francis Uzoho age

[anikulapo]

Yeah yeah ok just answer the question please. Trying to use aramba style to distract from the issue. The question is simple enough but you lawyers like to complicate things when you know your answer is gonna fcvk you in the a.ss.

Talk true and shame the Devil.

Yemi, abegi go face your Devil...
Perhaps he's been fvcking your own daughter in the arse!

WTF GOTTI REALLY?????

This is unacceptable

Pally abeg leave story. You know these days I tend not to take life too seriously anymore. It really doesn't bother me for real. I can take as much as I can give.

I just laugh when mods pretend not to see these posts just like Waffib's and then later show face and wax lyrical when lesser humans talk out of turn. If anyone doesn't see the difference between what I posted and this then they clearly don't wanna see it. Life goes on. When I leave the forum it's not gonna stick on my forehead that someone said that to me. The things that I have dealt with in life is much more than posted words on a fan forum.

Back to the issue at hand clearly gotti can't truthfully answer the question without compromising his argument so this was his exit strategy.

Ok oh. Still baffling as I can’t see what you have said to provoke such an extreme response

[green4life]

Bro, the age cheating starts right from the U13. NFF is highly culpable in this. They would carry a 19yr old player and stamp 12 on this passport. Haven't u noticed that in the u17, most of them have their birthdays in Dec and Jan?

Luckily for Uzoho, he would last long as keepers tend to last far longer than outfield players.

Please GOTTI, rather than been part of the problem, you should be part of the solution. If you were a lawyer, i would have understood why you defending the undefendable becuase that's what lawyers do best. A 3/4yr age cut is ok but i can never defend 5 to 10yrs. Age cheating is a massive epidermic in NIgeria (i cant talk for the rest of Africa) and like in Everything i do, i fight to correct societal ills. I was a very top member of the PDP in Ogun State but i left recently becuase I could not continue been associated with Decadence after trying to fight it from within. Now, i am fighting all of the political class from outside.

Thats how you defended Fortune Chukwudi to the end even after his former club chairman and investigative journalists exposed him. Sometimes, the way you defend this age cheats even when its clear its happening, you remind me of those BUHARISTS.

How you can actually say this and keep a straight face beats the hell out of me
NO IT IS NOT OK!!!!

That the naija factor: "It's Ok. We can manage it. Yes sah. Well done. Ehem...".

[metalalloy]

How did Francis Odinaka Uzoho overtake Dele Alampasu in the pecking order given their personal ranking in 2013? Now, is that not a more interesting question than this age debate crap? Why has Dele Alampasu not tied down the Number One spot since the exit of Vince Enyeama and rather allowed Francis Uzoho to walk straight into the World Cup team in Russia?

As for Uzoho, from Number 3 keeper at U17 in 2013 to SE keeper in 2018, good on you, son!

Its akin to a soccer sin to be playing an inexperienced Div 3 19 yr old soccer player in a worldcup that other players labored so hard to qualify for. If he is exceptional we can maybe understand that but he was third choice at the U17 and even now can't kick the ball past the midfield line.

A lot has happened since 2013. His position at the U17 is irrelevant.

Except that Uzoho was actually born in October...

Dude, time to put a cork in it and quit with this "I-am-a-cheat-and-thus-every-Nigerian-must-be-a- cheat" mentality of yours. For starters, THREE generations of my own family were all born within a little more than two months of the year (with a couple of outliers of course). Nonetheless, only SEVEN of the 21 members of Uzoho's set (2013) of U17 Eaglets were born in December and January (6 in December and only 1 in January). That means that your tortured "thesis" about birthdates was frankly just pulled from your sitter.

Finally, as it fortuitously turns out, when the disgraceful Ade Ojeikere was publicly blathering on about how nobody knows the 2013 Eaglets' school-mates, this same FRANCIS UZOHO was the one player on that team whose pictures taken with his school-mates was reproduced from social media (and I personally posted same here on CE - and will try to search the archives for it). This was a THIRD-STRING GK on the U17 team when those pictures were produced - with no indications (going from previous trends) that he would be ever heard of again on the national scene. SMDH@

Except that Uzoho was actually born in October...

And u actually feel like you've made a point here? SMH.


Dude, time to put a cork in it and quit with this "I-am-a-cheat-and-thus-every-Nigerian-must-be-a- cheat" mentality of yours.

If thats the mentality you deduce from my fight against age cheats, then your analytical capability has totally failed you on this one. Every Nigerian except Gotti and very very few people know age cheating is rampant. EVen Rohr in a one hour interview made fun at the situation when he was talking about Balogun and said "Balogun is 29, Real 29yrs not Nigerian 29yrs old". And everyone usted out laughing in the studio.

Even in this Piece, Pinnick practically also touches on this subject. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/08/nff ... s-pinnick/

And 9 from the 2009 squad
11 from the 2007 squad
from a 20/21 man Squad.
11,9,7 shows that the NFF was/is getting better at this.

I never said anythng about Uzoho's age or even doubted his age on this thread so far. But i know it when i see a 19yr old, just like i know that Ayoakinfe or Gotti can never be 35yrs old.


Please GOTTI, rather than been part of the problem, you should be part of the solution.

I am willing to bet Gotti did not defend Chukwudi. Uncle Fortune is a proven age cheat, and a football great, Adokiye gave us proof that was beyond reasonable doubt. You cannot however go about making wild and unfounded allegations based on assumptions and overgeneralisations.

You however, have just told us that you are comfortable with cheating and most likely a participant in and facilitator of age cheating and falsification, and the only thing you care about is the degree of the cheating.

The contradiction in your statements (even within the same post) is quite funny.

Bros, you should have allowed NFA Chair to continue to hang himself...
And when he has strung himself to the point of no return, we will break out the archives!

Hang myself? Ive not hung myself ANYWHERE.

Its gotten to a point now that when there is discuss on age cheats anywhere and someone is trying to defend, I would first of all assume the defender is GOTTI before i even check the name.

GOTTI, Defender of the age cheats!

[chief nfachairman]

Uhm....Chief.....where is the story that a 30yr old passed the MRI test?
Pls point it out.
Ive checked your link and I no see am.

As for Ndidi, you obviously don't seem to understand how the MRI works.
You need to FULLY EDUCATE YOURSELF on the basics of bone physiology and the application of the MRI scan before making comments like you have which basically suggest Ndidi is an age cheat.

Do you know the Ndidi story or are yu just following the headlines as written by an ignorant journalist you can probably teach yourself?

No he is simply the average clueless individual who makes baseless unsubtantiated claims, offers no evidence to back up his claims, and then digs in in ignorance when challenged.

Nfacheif or whatever you call yourself. Yes Nigeria has a history of age falsification, Yes we have numerous players that have cheated, you are not telling us anything new. But to make baseless insinuations on players ages based on a testing system that you have little understanding of is just not acceptable.

Oga Metalloy,
Have I accused any player here be it Uzoho of any form of FOCKING AGE CHEATING? WHAt teh FOCK is wrong with you guys? I have nothing to show he is an age cheat hence i have not accused him.

In another thread on Awoniyi, all i said is that I know his age peer and i ended that FOCKING post with the fact that he is quite young and close to stated age and he would play for the SE for a very long time.

As for Ndidi, I stated a fact that is out there and has been on several publications that he was dropped due to failing the MRI scan and he is still using the same age. But i didnt accuse him of any BLOODY fact that he is an age cheat. EnuguII has now engaged me in a constructive argument on MRI scan unlike you trying to come here to disrespect me. STUPID OLODO!!!!

What other conclusion is supposed to be drawn from the statement " HE IS STILL USING THE SAME AGE"? What other age is he supposed to use? You are you using your age on your birth certificate still?

Yes insult me go ahead. Keep on making unsubstantiated claims. No constructive "argument" can be had with an ignorant person like yourself. Go and educate your ignorant self on how MRI's work and what it tests for before you come and cast aspersions on young kids on a public website.

FIFA has said, for the U17 tournament, to determine those that are U17, use the MRI scan. NDIDI FAILED IT and got dropped from the team.
And then i said "He seems to still be using the same age." Am I not working with FACTS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!

We use FIFA facts, una abuse us. We saywe know his peers, una abuse us. we say he graduated from sec school at this age, una abuse us. We say A, B, C to Z una still abuse us. Na wa o

You started the disrespect MR. MAN. YOU DID!!!!!!!

That word makes a world of difference bro. If someone steps into an article and reads this;
" HE IS STILL USING THE SAME AGE"

Versus this "
" HE SEEM TO STILL BE USING THE SAME AGE"

I think we all can agree the difference is clear.

Bro,
I used the word "SEEM" in the original post but in the midst of responding (while i was in a meeting), i used still but again, reading my 3 responses on this NDidi, it is clear i did not accuse him of age cheating cos twice, i used the word SEEM.

[chief nfachairman]

SOmeone here said we shoudl go to Uzoho's facebook page and we'll see his Friend list are youg people.

OH NO, please it might make things a little worse bcos his page shows he STUDIED, At Imo State University. Lets assume he only attended, when did he attend? 2013? or 2014 when he was in Doha with Aspire and finally landed the Deportivo gig in 2017. Again, come to think of it, Aspire might not have been an all year round thing. maybe 3months a year and the rest, he could attend lectures at IMSU.

This kids need some advice. That Imo stte univeristy thing should be removed. I like him, i don't think he is 37 or even upto 27 and like i said, he would last long in the SE.

Again, I am not accusing Uzoho. i dont even want to even tho there might be evidences out there. ANyway, like uv all said, Uzoho got into uni at 14 in a country where average secondary school leaving age especialy for the middle class and abve is 16 and for the low incoome earners is 18.

FB pic...posted Feb 2013

He was fourteen...hmmm

Of course you would ignore a picture from the same day that doesn't fit your narrative. I am extremely hesitant to go into someones pr fb acct to lift personal pictures and post on a football forum , but to paint a full picture, and attempt to provide a full context, here is another picture from his account dated with the same date where he isn't smiling:



Here are the other kids he was hanging around from the same date, I suppose to carry out the full con for age cheating purposes, in 2013, a grown man had to hang out with a bunch of kids and attend church/bible study .



Finally, here is another picture dated just 3 months prior where he is clearly playing with other kids whom, one would presume are his age mates. Please stop with the insinuations based off pics. Some people develop faster and look older than their contemporaries. I don't know the uzoho or his age from adam, but posting $#% like this, along with the accompanying insinuation, without more based on your subjective idea of how someone is supposed to look at age 14 is borderline slanderous and should not be accepted on this site.


One would hope that you would have better things to do with your pathetic life than to go voyeur around some kids facebook page and cherry pick pictures to further your Naija trolling. Obviously, that would be asking too much of you.

Bro,
2012, Uzoho was 13. PLEASE THIS DOES NOT DO JUSTICE TO HIM. Would be nice to take it down.

This your argument is unbecoming of someone supposedly of your supposed calibre.

How does 19 fit into 12?
HAHAHA. Damunk, thats how ridicolous it gets. Please when next are you in Nigeria? I would take you round to these academies in Lagos, and we can have one on one chat with this players. THough 19 to 12 is not that much, 16/17 to 12 is pretty rampant.

And then they will still pass the MRI scans?

Oh my brother, you need to read more on MRI scan. A 30yr old can pass an MRI scan.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_fraud ... n_football

BTW, my main man Wilfred Ndidi failed MRI scan in the 2013 ANC U17 and was dropped. https://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/04/1 ... -cheating/

He seems to still be using the same age.

The test is not fool proof. It has a margin of error, so it will give a confidence level that 95% of the time, or in 99% of the population etc.

A kid that was born in the US, with confirmed Birth papers also failed it, so maybe Ndidi falls within that 1% or 5% (or whatever the marker for the MRI test is for that age) that fall under the normal bell curve.

http://www.nigerianeye.com/2013/09/mri- ... rn-in.html

Now you've contradicted EnuguII's thesis on the MRI. I guess we are not experts on this. I would probably invite a doctor to this forum to properly educate us on this in the very near future.

NFA chairman

Actually that is not a contradiction at all. He is quite correct and that is exactly my understanding. I hope you understand the fine difference between what he stated and your previous statement. For instance if you had stated that MRI may be passed by a 19 year old and failed by a 16 year old there would be no issue because those occur within the margin of error. What is not possible is your claim that a 30 year old would pass the test because that age is significantly outside the margin of error. That is the difference.
You need to read Dvorak's study and the reports can be found online.

Remember the American kid that failed the MRI scan and was sent home.....next month he played for USA in the same age group......we are all idiiiiots, all Nigerians...sorry

Why is everyone holding on to this one case of this American kid. I need more cases to be cited else it's an exception rather than the rule. Unlike in NIgeria, when MRI test is done for U17, almost half the squad fails it and the ones that pass, when CAF run another test before a major tourney, some of the ones that pass the initial eventually fail it.

[bk-one]

Isnt it the same Francis Uzoho who went through MRI Scan with two other goalkeepers at the Africa U-17 Cup of nations and the other two failed and he didnt. At the time the other two goalkeepers were ahead of him and he became the starting goalkeeper because he was the only one cleared by the FIFA mandated MRI Scan.

Come on guys...Let the kid be

This is exactly the kind of unsubstantiated Fake News that closes opportunities for us, small time the oyinbo owners of his club no go give am work again, dem no go give other of our boys chance and we go dey wonder wetin happen.

[metalalloy]

Bro,
2012, Uzoho was 13. PLEASE THIS DOES NOT DO JUSTICE TO HIM. Would be nice to take it down.

I won't because he could very well be 13. Greg Oden has been cited as an example for you, here is a video of his 13 year old half brother Joe Jones III who was already 6'6 at age 13 at the time this video was shot.

This is a pic of him at 17 years old at 6'9 220lbs


[/video]

If this kid were Nigerian, you would tell me to remove his video or pics as it does him no justice. Or are you people saying that Nigerian kids are not capable of hitting the genetic jackpot and there are no Nigerian kids who develop at a faster rate than their peers?

[metalalloy]

Why is everyone holding on to this one case of this American kid. I need more cases to be cited else it's an exception rather than the rule. Unlike in NIgeria, when MRI test is done for U17, almost half the squad fails it and the ones that pass, when CAF run another test before a major tourney, some of the ones that pass the initial eventually fail it.

No you do not need more cases to prove that the test is flawed! The American kid is the perfect control case since you people question every test done by Nigerians. He has readily documented papers that shows he is a kid and yet he "failed" the MRI that you use as a smear against other Nigerian kids who "fail" the test.
