The older generation who saw some of Nigeria's best Goalkeepers in action would tell you there’s no goalkeeper today that can match the ability of these goalkeepers. But today fans may feel Vincent Enyeama who helped Nigeria’s Super Eagles win the Nations Cup is the best goalkeeper the country has ever produced. Since there was no video coverage for those whose career span in the early 50s’ – 70s.’ We had to rely on the verdicts of some ex-footballers such as Joe Erico, Segun Odegbami, Christian Chukwu, Peter Fregene… etc. to make our selections. Let’s see if their profile (as gathered from their ex-teammates) will be enough to help you decide who your all time best Nigeria goalkeeper is.  Sam Ibiam   Sam Ibiam cut an incredible reputation as the goalkeeper players can’t beat with the ball.

In Romans 9 vs 16, the Bible says: "So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy". This part of the scripture has been a genesis of so many arguments as many believed God is selective of whom to show mercy to.  Many believed that God shows this in the case of Jacob and Esau. Some also believed that Peter was showed mercy but Judas was doomed to die. Little wonders why someone will commit a particular sin, will go scot free but someone else that commit that same sin might die. Many have argued that everyone will not receive the mercy of God, they believed that some people are doomed to perish no matter how many years they spent on the earth, this set of people believed God spares only those he wishes to and destroys others. Wait a minute, Is God really partial? My Opinion: God is not partial, there is something call GRACE. It is available for all those who seek it. Every human is doomed to perish, it i...

James (not real name) graduated school at the top of his year. He attended a top science university, Graduated with a 2.1 in pure theoretical Physics (90% of his class came away with a 2.2 or a 3, no one got a 1). His job now. He washes pots and pans for a large kitchen in Ikoyi.  To most people, he is doing nothing worthwhile. But to him, he is happy and fulfilled. He sees what he is doing as worthwhile in his life. We have read so many articles about being happy and being successful, I quote from. One article I read: "Worth is what we define it as. For some people worth is riches and land; for others it is changing the world. We should not force our expectations on others, but instead we should allow them to find worth in their own way". In Nigeria, everyone expects you to be successful (become rich) especially if you are a University graduate. But then,  “When one spends their life becoming what others want,   there is great hazard of losin...

A Nigerian, Nneka Otika share her story while asking if you have ever experienced anything like this. Her story below: Gosh, where do I begin?! In 2014, I registered on  Freelancer - Hire & Find Jobs  to get jobs as a content writer. You'd have to put your location and mine was Nigeria. Oh boy! I didn't get any jobs for nearly two months even though I worked on each bid well. One of the people who was looking for a freelancer, an Indian, said he liked my bid and samples but he can't hire a Nigerian. That Nigerians aren't trustworthy. Another client also said the same thing. This one was from the US. I did eventually get hired by an Ivorian web developer who lived in India. Another very jarring experience was being called a scammer and whore by a Pakistani user who wanted me to work outside the platform and I refused. I guess he was deeply disturbed. And I promptly reported him. As a Nigerian, you don't get the benefit of doubt from any...

I came across this and decide to share with you all: "I don't know if Nigerians are the smartest people on earth but they sure are smart, Igbo folk in particular. To give an example; back in 1981, I was hiring staff in Warri. A young (17) Igbo fellow called Sam asked for a job. He was as short as me and very slim so not suitable for laboring work. He was totally full of beans so I hired him anyways to help me with line testing gear. Sam had had just four years of primary education. About a week in he asked me why I liked the small numbers on the test gear and did not like the big ones. So sitting there under a mangrove I explained voltage, current, Ohms law and the problem with contaminated connections. About an hour later Sam comes back with a drawing and a handful of batteries. He wanted to know whether there was a way to put the batteries in the geophones so as to push the signal through even with poor connections. I was gobsmacked. An hour after hearing of Ohm's...

Photo Credit: Nigerian Tribune I think it is because most Nigerians are concern about their survival as they believe they have gone through a lot of suffering and hardship due to corrupt governments and leaders. Survival is the main aim of most Nigerian, not patriotism to a government and nation which do not act like her citizens even exist. corruption has eaten patriotism, at this day and age, the minimum wage of Nigeria is 18,000 naira (less than 60 dollars) monthly, while our Senators earn close to, if not more than their American counterparts.

Photo Credit: Pulse.ng What did you miss when you travel out of Nigeria or perhaps, what you are missing about the country or what you think you will miss when you travel out of the country, Nigeria? Let's look at few things some person(s) miss about  the country: Food: I definitely miss party jollof rice, buying local food like ofada rice and ogufe, buying snacks like gala and chips by the road side with a chilled drink.

The battery life of an iPhone is something even Apple aficionados complain about. With more and more applications being available for the device, increased use of its camera and background task-supporting applications such as Siri, battery life consumption also increases. Here are 5 tips that could help you save battery life on your iPhone: Turn off “Hey Siri”: The iPhone’s voice assistant Siri is always keen to listen to you. By default, it keeps working on the iPhone in the background, which means it also consumes battery. In case you don’t have the need for it, you can actually turn it off. To do so, navigate to Settings > General> Siri or Settings > Siri and then just switch the feature off.  Stop apps from refreshing in the background: Background App Refresh is a machine-learning feature, which helps apps learn when you frequently check them. It allows them to predict when you will check them next and lets them be prepared with the latest data. Since ...

I don't know if I am the only one that feel this way about wedding parties. Do you enjoy attending weddings? If yes, Why?

Farhan's passion is wildlife photography, but he pursues an engineering degree to appease his father.
