Anybody that rigs this election we will rig the person and when I become President, Anybody that didn't go to primary and secondary school won't contest election. Any INEC official that rigs election will go to jail"

I kind of agree with Zinedine Zidane for Proposing Separate Awards for Club and International Football

“The Ballon d’Or organisers need to be more consistent with their decisions.

They used La Liga performances to award Lamine Yamal the Kopa Trophy over Pau Cubarsí, relied on World Cup performances to award Unai Simón the Yashin Trophy over David Raya, ignoring a whole season of club football and used Bundesliga performances to award Harry Kane the Gerd Müller Trophy over Kylian Mbappé, despite Mbappé's incredible scoring record.

They also prioritised Champions League success when selecting Club of the Year, yet placed greater emphasis on international tournament success when choosing Coach of the Year over managers who delivered outstanding results at club level.

So, which criteria actually matter: domestic league performances, Champions League success or international tournaments?

If the organisers cannot apply consistent standards across every category, they should separate club football awards from international football awards.

Players and managers deserve recognition based on clear, fair criteria, not standards that appear to change from one award to another. The Ballon d’Or needs reform.
