        Apparently, BBC is out of good journalist so they employ Anas who sets people up with a fictitious crime and they call it investigative journalism. That’s like a news station going out there to create chaos so that they can report on it. Absurd!

        Investigative journalism is when a suspected crime or story is in action and the journalist does some digging to uncover it. Anas rather manufactures crimes and crime scenes for his victims and simply records them

        If you secretly offer an alcoholic a bottle of whiskey will he accept it?

        What is wrong with offering someone a botthe of whiskey. And why would I need to offer it in secret. Is alcohol contraband? U may need to reframe your question

        I know that this goes on in my country but $1000?? Come on that is like N350,000 at best...for players who earn much more than that?!and the coach who earns N3m per month?!..trust me its too small for a bribe for that competition...and he very well might have seen it as a gift.

        I mean if u were an undercover journalist,there is no way he would have known he was being recorded and u could have said that u were trying to give him a bribe or influence his decision he would have indulged u so as to be clear on what it is..So this is very flawed journalism.

        Yes o... Probably to make it clear to him that it wasn't a bribe and he doesn't collect them.. and he still didn't know he was recorded...i really find this article far-fetched and desperate

        Yes he could have but he decided to collect the money trustingly and now its gotten him in trouble.... Mind u i am not supporting him and it could very well have been a bribe but the story really doesn't add up and if i were a lawyer i would tear dat evidence to shreds

        The fact is Nigerian always have a way of turning a bad act to a good one by manufacturing questions & answers. How does collecting a bribe for player selection turn to a gift coming from the player agent. And what does the amount got to do with it? A bribe is a bribe.

        They womble and fumble to the Final, performance was abysmally poor, Time bomb in the waiting, eventually exploded in the final.. My brother cast your mind back to flying Eagles performance in 2015. Benched Iheanacho. Benched success Isaac, benched Moses Simon for no reason..

        Only reason I can adduce from benching those guys then, was nothing but money and other inducement from the local players in the team, who want to make it at that tournament,,,
