What in the world did he do that he's unworthy of novelty match?


Omololu Abiodun Waheed, he is the current Captain of Shooting Stars Sports Club(3SC); he was left out of the just concluded match that commemorate the grand opening of The Lekan Salami Sports Complex! It's an issue that needs urgent answer from the Coach staff led by Coach Edith Agoye because the captain was seeing warming up during the pre-match warm up!


Among the players who participated in the said match, how many are of Oyo State descent? All these questions are posers and only people with the deep knowledge of sports politics will see reasons! Putting pen to paper was simply because of the anomaly sighted as well as what I perceived as deliberate attempt to frozen our captain out of the team! It was saddened seeing our team captain sitting on the bench during a grand opening of the beautiful edifice in which is TEAM will be fighting for honours! 


If you are conversant and truly knows what goes behind the scenes of training grounds and the camps where player's selection takes place; there are lots of moves to get your players to be included! Omololu Abiodun is really good if you have seeing him play, very versatile, enterprising, intelligent, and can adapt to various positions on the field of play! He's a gifted chap and really deserves better than what the technical crews are scheming against him and some of us will never silent about what they are doing to him! Ha ha? Novelty match? How poor can a Captain be that he's unworthy of featuring in that match? Eyin nu, Olohun nu!


I can go on and on and on but the posterity of the talent Omololu Abiodun possessed will never be wasted! Who will help in turning the hand of time back for him to feature? Things are going the way of last season heartbreak and I want to notify the general populace to assist I circulating the injustice that might crumbled the efforts of our sports loving Governor! The Captain deserves more, it's a result of hard work, zeal, charisma and experienced! 


Omololu Abiodun is not the first captain from the long line of leaders and he won't be the last while is carrier will continue to rise by the Grace of Almighty God; he's a God's project, a shinny light for loads of upcoming footballers! I raised this issue because of the passion of our governor has for doing things as it is! May our lights continue to shines brighter and we will have it so well on the greatest stage in life! 

May the governor succeed, may the team succeed, may the Captain takes his team to the greatest stage in football and may we all succeed in our endeavours!

A Challenge to The African Leaders (Nigeria's Example)

"Be a gift to everyone who enters your life, and to everyone who’s your life you enter. Be careful not to enter another's if you cannot always be gift (you can always be a gift, because you always are the gift-yet sometimes you do not let yourself know that)" . This quote was culled from the Conversation with God: Uncommon Dialogue. Volume 2 by Weale Donald Walsch ! The life we found ourselves in is a gift, we are a gift, I am a gift and your belief is what can make you a gift if you allow your faith to manifest! Since I discovered myself to be a gift to the world, I have been threading the path of positivism always! From the spirit of given wholeheartedly to the process of helping the helpless in whatever capacity I can! This process leads to why I will always be wondering why African leaders accumulating the wealth meant the entire populace for their personal use. There are times I think the gauntlet of truth must be unveil, alas there is no resources that star...

"WHEN A LOSS IS A VICTORY" - By Dr. Wladimir Klitchsko

At the end of April I competed against Anthony Joshua , and thereby took on the greatest of all challenges: In front of 90,000 spectators in a sold-out Wembley Stadium in London – as well as a TV audience of millions in more than 150 countries – I fought the fight of my life against the 28-year-old Englishman. I competed to conquer the best of the best. Sadly, I failed to achieve my goal. The outcome was that my opponent won the fight. But despite this, and however absurd it may sound, I also left the ring victorious. In the run-up, I was 100 percent certain that I would win the duel. I had prepared as well as I could and felt I was in the best form of my life; winning back the title of World Champion was my obsession. I gave it everything during the fight. I managed to get up several times after being knocked down. I was even able to send my opponent to the canvas. But, in the end, it was Anthony Joshua who struck the decisive blow and left the ring victorious. I failed to ...

Shujaa Ernest Graham- A Rare Gem!

By profiling a man like Shujaa Graham; I am just wondering where can we find a matching example here in Nigeria? What we are witnessing today, are just self-serving leaders, who are hellbent on trampling the common man's rights without blinking! We wakes up to lots of empty promises and all they preach is patience! Chief Obafemi Awolowo, of blessed memory spoke about the decay of public affairs, a year after independence! What was the reaction? It is rhetorical when many unanswerable questions are what we could tenders to the incoming generations! Say No To Injustice! Say No To Racial Segregation!! Together we can make the world a better place to live in!!! Happy reading! A man who has shown by example that you can stand up for what you believe, and be victorious if you stand up for what you believe. Shujaa Graham was born in Lake Providence, LA, where he grew up on a plantation. His family worked as share-croppers, in the segregated South of the 50s. In 1961, he ...
