No Salah, no victory: Liverpool are becoming too reliant on Mo Salah

Another game, another goal, Mo Salah is becoming the best Liverpool Striker of all time. There is a strong chance that Salah will become Liverpool's highest goal scorer after having scored 201 goals in four seasons at the club.

It will be a great achievement to achieve that destiny, but it might damage the team's overall goal in terms of actualizing this dream.

Salah still remains Liverpool's major source of goals and without him, the club won't be contemplating finishing in the top 4 talk more of winning a trophy.

Over relying on a single player always comes at a cost. Although, Liverpool is no strange to this sort of situations. In the past they've relied heavily on Michael Owen, Sami Hyppia, Steve McManaman, Steven Gerrard, Xavi Alonso, Javier Mascherano, Fernando Torres, Luis Suarez and the most recently Phillipe Coutinho.

Apart from Coutinho, the departure of some of the aforementioned players massively affected the progressive of the team.

But with Jurgen Klopp now managing the affairs of the club, Liverpool have managed to get rid of some of the finest players in the club's history and still remain competitive. (Emre Can, Gini Wijnaldum, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, James Milner, Jordan Henderson and Fabinho) all left Liverpool to green pasture.

Salah meanwhile is a different breed of player. He is an instinctive goal scorer capable of creating goals for others to. He is the modern version of Arjen Robben but fitter, stronger and extremely faster.

Depending on him to score scores does make sense but the Reds must be careful. He will leave someday to where the green is greener, and Liverpool will struggle to get going if no can match his scoring streak.

Educational system in Nigeria is dangerous: Why lectures are responsible for 70% of adult suicide in schools

The troubling questions most Nigerians refuse to ask themselves probably due to its complicated and complex nature is 'why are Nigeria students taking their own lives in schools?' First thought that will undoubtedly come to mind is the students' financial and economic struggles as a result of the badly managed government. Nigeria's current problems include bribery and corruption, senile leadership, food insecurity, inflation, fuel difficulties, Forex challenges, and, most cruelly, widespread thievery by public officials. Second thought could be social, or peer pressure, emotional blackmail or relationship matters. Third reason is the radical policy of the incumbent president Bola Ahmed Tinubu who ensured subsidized education was eradicated and replaced with student loan. But the major reason which has contributed more deaths than the aforementioned is the role of lecturers and other public officials in the educational system.

Nigeria lies: Why Boko Haram, Banditry and Kidnapping might never end

Insecurity in Nigeria is a business venture for top officials who have brilliantly covered up their tracks irrespective of the carnage it has cost over the years. Due to Nigeria's extremely corrupt political structure, certain officials who were unfortunate enough to have their photo taken dining with a Boko Haram leader have risen to the second-highest position in the government and have stifled any idea of conducting any investigation. Ahead of him, a different official declared with audacity that "an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the northern part of Nigeria" and demanded the liberation of the group. Regretfully, since 2012, this region has lost about $250 billion in investments and lands, and over 200,000 people have died. Horrifically, that same individual rose to become the president of Nigeria and left a devastating legacy in his 8-year tenure. NTS reported that over 63111 died in his 8-year-time, the report is clearly stated in Vanguard Newspaper 6th June...
