Getting sued or suing someone is always the best way to start the week

 Monday morning-getting  sued or suing someone  is always the best way to start the week  


Taking a look at the sports pages in Nigerian dailies this morning the first thought that crossed my mind was --   Gani Fawehinmi 22 APRIL 1938-5 SEPT 2009 would have loved a piece of this kind of action,pity the great legal luminary is no more , am pretty sure he would loved to have a go at some these cases,, or probably pass it on to the likes of Festus Keyamo  -yeah Keyamo would probably have more experience with cases like this -wonder what the chap is up to these days

Any how this link from the peoples daily would sure interest some of you Amodu haters

THE PROPHECY -AMODU WILL RETURN

Like a bad coin….that always comes back. hey why the heck am I so harsh ….Joe Erico who was an assistant to Shuaibu Amodu when they were fired in 2002 , has predicted prophesied that the once again  fired redeployed coach of the super eagles AMODU SHUAIBU ….note …redeployed is the new word for sack- funny how these guys coin new phrases for coaches getting sacked …since the José Mourinho mutual consent thing with Chelsea ….will make another return to coach the super eagles …sometime soon…yikes ....hopefully not during another world cup year .


 Jogo Bonito exponent as Joe Erico is called while speaking with The Nation said  "If I am in his shoes, I will stay away from the national team and wait for a time to stage a return. The fact that he was redeployed to the home based Eagles is no news. The job is about hiring and firing, it is not peculiar with Nigeria or Amodu, so he should get over it and move on with his life.

Now this is the good part...
"There is still a whole lot of life ahead of us and the national team is always there. Who says he will not return, this is not the first time this will be happening, so he should overlook every distraction around and relaunch his career. The coach of Algeria has returned to the national team for a record five times and if he is now billed to lead the team to South Africa, then that means any thing can still happen," he advised.

Okay now so Amodu is aiming for the record in comebacks for coaches …….the coach of Algeria Rabat Sadane is setting the pace in Africa with five …….

I wonder how Nigerians will take this prophecy ………yikes ……

AMODU IS EITHER A GENIUS OR.......

Amodu is either a genius or……. I have to be careful here because as a student of history I have discovered one thing geniuses, prophets, messiahs, great leaders, fools, megalomaniacs, and egoistic idiots in public positions who have the opportunity of getting the attention of a mob/crowd, have in common. This is the singular ability to go against the norm in reasoning, speech patterns, behavior, and lifestyle. And then this singular characteristic as history will have it endears the people into a sycophantic follower ship wherein they are worshipped, heralded as greats, even deified or in other case they generate hatred and mistrust so deep that these ones end up being sometimes killed, or scorned for generations and then in the end become reference points for the generations, but what ever the case they make it to the history books. Now with that in mind I leave my readers to judge for themselves the place of Amodu Shuaibu in the soon to be written annals of football history on the road to the world cup -South Africa 2010. When asked by the always nosy Nigerian sports press about the friendly game between the super eagles of Nigeria which he is the head coach and the reggae Boyz of Jamaica -a match which was judged by 150million Nigerians who for God knows why think they understand what the technical intricacies of watching a football match is all about as lack luster, boring, uninventive ……… I could go on and on….... Amodu showing the characteristic I so aptly illustrated in the first paragraph laughed mockingly and asked if it was the same match they played in London that Nigerians watched. “I wonder if it was the same match we played that you people watched. That match, to me, was fantastic in terms of ball possession by the Eagles. I am happy with their performance in that match”, Oh it gets better Amodu continues “Perhaps you wanted us to win. I was more concerned about cohesion and their passes. And I got it because the boys played fantastically” And he ends with flourish that would make a novelist happy “Jamaica had nothing to lose and they put everything into the game. We were careful but against Mozambique, we will play smooth or mechanical to win the match. It is a match that we must win and all the players are aware of the importance of the World Cup to them and to Nigerians.”-vanguard Now back to title of this article SHUAIBU AMODU is ether a genius or………….
