From Owerri to Maiduguri through Akure to Kaura Namoda. From Badagry to Calabar through Makurdi to Adamawa, Nigerian fans are celebrating Super Eagles 3-2 victory over our arch rivals, Cameroon today in Egypt.
The Positive Public Relations Mileage the Super Eagles victory has attracted to Nigeria cannot be over expressed.
Yet the leadership of Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) that has been out and about working hard to ensure that the Super Eagles, Super Falcons and other national teams continue to fly the flag of Nigeria high at international football competitions are being hounded, maligned, abused and even defamed daily by people and quasi- agencies claiming to be working for the ” interest of Nigeria”. Whose interest?
And you ask yourself, if indeed these people Love Nigeria as they want the world to believe will they be trying so hard since Five Years now to bring down the roof of the same NFF, a parastatal of the Federal Government that is projecting the country in good light across the globe the teams.
Again, the Super Eagles victory today has reunited Nigerians across ethnic groups.This is the power of Sports, football in particular.
Let the shenanigans give the NFF leadership a break to concentrate on how to move Nigeria football to The Next Level. Up Super Eagles. One Nigeria.
