MESSI in Gabon to lay foundation stone of CAN venue

[mcal]

Messi himself is surprised that he is getting that type of reception. The look on his face is suggestive of.... "Why me, even red carpet sef.....and I never win world cup o. Wetin dem go come do if I come win world cup? Why did they even call me, dem no see Gyan, abi dem don tire for azonto?"

...they will make him president of Gabon or AU

at least Gabon invited somebody with a lot of talent (outside the bedroom)

Africans are not ready Obama went to Ghana just to make them dance & the USA will benefit from the real reason he visited!

Imagine what $500K would have done for the children of Afuze

[anointed]

No be block dem talk say make him come carry? No be like bricklayer him suppose dress?

Exactly what I said on Sunday Night Sports (Orange FM) tonight. In any case, I've always had problems with people who wear suits to stadia.

[jb]

I hear say ashawo boku for Afuze

[King Futcha]

Make una do research before una attack oh! He was fulfilling a promise he made to Eto'o

Bros metal,
Wedda-wedda he made promise or not, this is how a young, aware and respectful sports star dresses when he visits an African country.

this is too easy.

While I agree with the comments here.

It should be noted that Shorts are NOT as lowly thought of elsewhere in the world as they are in Nigeria.

I remember when I visited Nigeria recently and I wore shorts, my family kept deriding me. Whereas in Australia..wearing shorts is PERFECTLY NORMAL. In fact Millionaires in Australia wear shorts. Some even wear shorts while conducting business.

So it is a different culture. Nigeria is one of the places on earth where Shorts are associated with being poor or unruly. Big Men will even refuse to wear shorts, when temperatures are very hot.

So while I agree that yes Messi should have dressed better, it should also be noted that shorts are NOT a poor man's attire or a Ruffian's attire, outside of Nigeria.

He will be called Shey Messi

If it's public money, I would agree but since its private money (as much as I would have preferred the money be used elsewhere) they are perfectly within their right to blow it on a cat show for all I care.

Frazier, jealousy go kill you one day. Cass the Gas was a consummate politician. He knew how to woo the masses, that's why he was able to defeat Foreman even before they stepped in the ring in Zaire.

Messi the messican't should take lessons from the numba 2 King, Cass (the real King being O Rei, of course) and learn how to make the masses love you. See now, even though I am a fan of the useless messican't, I will boo him at the next World Cup--where Argentina will be knocked out in the first round--because of this his short knicka faux pas.

i knew AN12 had a hand to play in this...smh.
If AN1 had been invited by the Gabonese prez, he would have been there in person.

Anyway kudos to 'the Swede' for playing the part. - shorts and t shirt. Very nice

[cic old boy]

See the president Ali Buffoon Bongo driving Messi. No effing self-respect.

He's been there, several times and had Xavi and Valdes also visit. He's been trying to get all his friends to go there for a minute.

Ali Ben Bongo has always been star-struck. I remember when Michael Jackson visited Gabon, when his father was the ruler, Ali Bongo was identified in a photo caption by GQ magazine as Michael's bodyguard.
