The beautiful game waiting to be 'killed' by the NSC |
For the records. I presage and quickly too that this ungodly precedence will kill Scrabble in Nigeria. Two, despite this unholy, ugly and useless interference from the NSC, can the NSC hoist unwanted guests on the game and the community of Scrabble in Nigeria? What if the other community members opt not to play with them? Will the NSC come down and take the quanta of irresponsibility demonstrated by these unschooled members they are ordering back to the fold?
Is the reversal decision of the NSC not even a negation of the rules of IOC and even natural justice? Is the NSC buffs aware of the grave damages and the near tearing down of the house the "Ranting Nine" committed?
I want to think, a mind that is not well informed, took a decision that needs to be reversed on behalf of the NSC. Candidly speaking, if the NSC decision must stay, then, they should hand over the entire NSF to the "Ranting Nine" while the entire community vacate the house for them.
I stand up to say it loud and clear, no sports federation is as organised, effective, efficient and democratic in Nigeria as the NSF. I don't know which federation has the quality and quantity of championships like the NSF at no cost to the Federal Government via an NSC that shirked its responsibilities in terms of inputs?
Why then do we have rules? Why are there laws? I then think that the NSC should have their ways and say, but Chief Olobatoke Aka should, as an individual, resign from the NSF presidency and deliver a prohibitive libel and defamation of character suit worth about N30billion against the nine of them, join the NSC and wait for the outcome.
This is by calculating how many Nigerians and none Nigerians had read their lies and fibs. Multioplied by how many television stations, newspapers and online media had heard, listened to and read all they have published against his person which rubbed on his friends, relations and business associates. The onus depends on them to prove their allegations.
If the NSC were this responsible and love the game, how come they've not been funding the activities of the federation?
No wonder I have a symmetry of thought from Koyejo who wrote in from the UK: "Distasteful, you guys backed down so easily and when next you as a board are pushed around, na siddon look I go dey, shameful, whoever forced you guys to make this decision will eventually make you guys a laughing stock and toothless in dealing with further rancours, why then leave Sidespin suspended? Unsuspend the guy and make him NSF board chairman!"
I am still in a shock and at a loss on why the NSF took this infamous decision without considering the expected backlash. It is held sacrosanct in all fields of human interaction, religion inclusive (except that of NSF and NSC) that genuine repentance goes with forgiveness. Please at the risk of begging the question can somebody show me any form of remorse from this rebellious "Nine" if non where is this pardon coming from. Just last week I ran into a member of the dishonourable "nine" in Warri and he threatened fire and brimstone, claiming they have all sorts of incriminating evidence against the NSF and Blah blah blah. And all of a sudden the NSF seems to be singing a dull refrain. Is it that the NSF with the calibre of people in its board have been arm twisted by this gang? Please NSF we need some explanation on why this action was taken so as to prevent future dissidents from travelling on this familiar route.
ReplyDeleteTo say that I am disappointed in the so called NSC wise men that unbanned those greedy rebels in Nigerian scrabble circuit will mean sincerely an understatement. It demonstrated totally and fully how lily-livered our leaders in this country can be with this case as a showpiece. Why the hurry in unbanning them? Just because their lean purses are now leaner because there are no "LOOTS" to share from having been away for a little moment from Nigeria Scrabble STORE. Now that the biggest STORE HOUSE in AKWA-IBOM is about opening for LOOTS for those who deserve it, in their usual greedy manner, they become uncomfortable and have cowed the NSF and NSC into taking a decision that may destroy the Scrabble family in no distant future, WOE! GREAT SHAME! Any father who encourages his little son to climb a tall tree should also have enough TEARS to dispense.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
We are waiting for them in the open at least some us will have the opportunity of BEATING any of them. My target is Wellington, don't laugh because I'm serious lol.
