Neymar will have to wait for Lionel Messi, his Barcelona teammate, to
bow out before he is able to shine as the best footballer in the world,
says former ‘Azulgrana’ player Ronaldinho Gaúcho.
Neymar has all the qualities to be the best in the world, but
“getting there will depend on how long Messi stays at the level he is”,
Ronaldinho commented in an interview with Brazilian cable network,
SporTV.
Ronaldinho Gaúcho believes that Messi’s reign also overshadows Real
Madrid’s goal machine Cristiano Ronaldo. “That must be Ronaldo’s
greatest frustration: to have lived in the same era as Messi” he said.
In his opinion, in the absence of Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo would be
the best in the world. “They were born in the same era. It was a matter
of chance. Were it not for that, Ronaldo would have been the best in the
world in recent years”, he said.
According to Ronaldinho, who was also considered the best in the
world during his time with Barcelona, “talent and place” are important
factors in Neymar’s journey to take over from Messi at the top.
“The team is good, the place is good, the championship is good”, he said.
“We’ll have to wait and see how Messi treats Neymar”, said
Ronaldinho, for whom things could be made difficult if “there is some
vanity, with a player not wanting to make room for someone new coming
in”.

Comparison By Okupe On Jonathan and Mandela Ignites Reactions
Nigerians have reacted to Dr. Doyin Okupe’s comparison of President
Goodluck Jonathan to the late iconic South African president Nelson
Mandela.
Okupe, senior special adviser, to the president said “Nelson Mandela was a great leader, he lived his life for the people of South Africa. I check through the history of Nigeria, among our past and present leaders, the only one we call our Mandela is President Jonathan. There is no president in Nigeria that has sacrificed 13 hours to discuss with ASUU.”
Many Nigerians immediately took to social network site, Twitter, to respond to Okupe.
Adebayo Adesola @Feyishayur tweeted: “One question for Doyin Okupe: In the event of GEJ’s demise, will the EPL mourn him, talk more the whole world?
#JustAsking “Are you sure Doyin Okupe does not need a psychiatric evaluation. #GEJ compared with #Madiba! We no go see fire inside well o!,” OJOAK @ojoak responded.
Here are other responses from Nigerians. Dec 15th @LionelNicklas “An insult to Mandela”.
Toyosi Odusanya @TOYOSI_NO1 “Looks like Doyin Okupe just loves insulting our ears sha….. I will just ignore and refuse to get angry.”
Demola @demo5000 “Doyin Okupe is delusional this corrupt system has taken his sense of reasoning and judgement that made him compare a weakling to Madiba”.
Tunji @heymode “President Jonathan should sack Doyin Okupe for making such a sick statement and send him to Yaba left too”.
Aruoture John @Aruoturejon “Doyin Okupe needs to earn his pay as a Presidential Squealer but he should stop being ridiculous with statements bordering on sycophancy!”
Olusegun Dada @DOlusegun “Doyin Okupe should be pitied at this point. No need being pissed at him.”
Mr Ben @yzma_360 “Mandela refused a 2nd term in office. That’s enough difference.”
Omobolanle @MobolaOjo “Is this an achievement? No other president has spent 13 hours in a meeting with ASUU.”

Nigeria: Farmers Prefer Cannabis To Food Crops, Says NDLEA
Most Nigerian farmers now abandon growing food and economic crops
for cannabis in a bid to become instant millionaires , the country’s
anti-narcotics agency said Saturday.
In a statement, Ahmadu Giade, the chairman of the Nigeria’s National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), said: “It is sad and disturbing that most farmers are now abandoning food and economic crops for cannabis.”
Last year, the NDLEA arrested 8,052 suspected drug traffickers, including 542 women, it said.
The NDLEA boss said that more than 1,400 hectares of land was used last year for cannabis plantation.
“This 1,404.27 hectares of land could have changed the fortunes of our agricultural sector if properly utilised,” he stated.
The agency seized drugs worth 33 billion naira ($208 million/ 152 million euros) last year and prosecuted 1,720 suspects, it stated. It did not say how many suspects the agency convicted.
Among the drugs seized were cannabis, heroin, cocaine, ephedrine, methamphetamine and amphetamine, the NDLEA said.
“We shall continue to dislodge more drug trafficking syndicates because anytime we intercept drug from criminals, we are indirectly saving lives,” Giade said.
Some of the seized drugs — hidden in ear rings, buttons, necklaces, bangles and female belts — came into Lagos from Brazil and Pakistan, he alleged.
