adconline: What training facilities were offered to them by NFF before they opted for a primary school playground in Oshodi?
Any authorization from the school to use their facility?
Did the school/LASG give them authorization without consultation with NFF?
NFF story is fishy

Ijogz K: What is the website of the NFF?

Red-Light:
the question we suppose to ask before blaming nff ...

1. have they treated any visiting team like that before

answer is NO

2. what will they gain in treating a team that is not even close to super eagles in anyway badly?

answer is Nothing


our team is better than them ... and we are more civilized than them ... so i think the kenyans really need to be cained for trying to make us look bad with their cheap mind game

nonsense

“Even their embassy was finding it hard getting
information out of them. an embassy official
called Mr Tony was doing his best to help us,

them.” When information eventually came, it was too
limited, according to Oyeyode. “They told us they were coming with a 25-man
delegation, but didn't give us any names, so we
could not book the connecting flight to Calabar

relationship with the airline to book 25 seats

train in Lagos. The arrangement was for them
to come in and fly straight to Calabar. But their
flight arrived at noon, and the flight to Calabar
is usually at 11am. “At no time did we discuss anything about a
chartered aircraft. Even our own team, who
are African champions, flew to Calabar on a
regular commercial flight.”

me_for_you: Yorubas with their lying-through-the teeth sickness. U booked national stadium for a national team to train, but they preferred going to train in a jakande-era LGA primary school field. That's how u are easily deceived and later start blaming govt. Why didn't they claim booking federal palace hotel or that tinubi's hotel in lekki for them in short notice.
Stop deceiving yourselves and be acting like the dogs of war on nairaland and twitter. Blame NFF, the thieves in glass house abuja that have allowed national stadium abuja to be overgrown with grasses.
Is national stadium surulere still in existence? Why not book teslim balogun stadium? Mtchweeeee

Human_being1st: y dont u wear dat ur optical glass b4 coming here on nairaland?

chingyjant:
Na wa for you sef.Na everything about Nigeria you must find fault?Can't you deduce the tactics the Kenyans are trying to use on Nigeria?If you don't get it they wanted to sneak into Nigeria and train without being spied on but it all backfired.

Human_being1st: NFF say Kenya responsible for their troubles

Nigeria say Kenya are responsible for their own travel troubles in Nigeria, and chose a dilapidated primary school to train despite being offered a much better pitch at National Stadium, Lagos.

On Wednesday, pictures emerged showing Harambee Stars players training on a grassless ground in Lagos, and their officials reportedly blaming their Nigerian counterparts for shoddy arrangements

But NFF official Bola Oyeyode, who is the coordinator for the game, told KickOffNigeria.com that the Kenyans had no one to blame but themselves.

“To start with, they were playing hide and seek about their travel arrangements,” Oyeyode began. “They refused to communicate their arrival date to us despite numerous letters from us to them.

“In all those communications, we copied their embassy here and Fifa and we still have the letters here.

“It was only on Monday afternoon that they wrote to us informing us they would arrive on Wednesday afternoon.

“Even their embassy was finding it hard getting information out of them. an embassy official called Mr Tony was doing his best to help us, but even he could not get anything out of them.”

When information eventually came, it was too limited, according to Oyeyode.

“They told us they were coming with a 25-man delegation, but didn't give us any names, so we could not book the connecting flight to Calabar early.

“When it was getting late, we used our relationship with the airline to book 25 seats with no names, only for them to arrive with a 35-man party.

“In their letter, they never said they wanted to train in Lagos. The arrangement was for them to come in and fly straight to Calabar. But their flight arrived at noon, and the flight to Calabar is usually at 11am.

“At no time did we discuss anything about a chartered aircraft. Even our own team, who are African champions, flew to Calabar on a regular commercial flight.”

Regarding the training ground, Oyeyode said the Kenyans picked the substandard ground on the advise of one of their ‘consultants’.

“We went out of our way to book the training pitch of the National Stadium in Surulere for them at very, very short notice.

“But they refused to go there, after they were advised but one their men on the ground here, and they chose that primary school to train.”

kbdrim: Abeg Leave all that excuse Jare..Are we Kids? how did they get access to train in a primary school without our knowledge. Wouldn't those responsible have known that it was going to embarass the country. Now it has backfired, one govt officer is making excuses. Im not absolving Kenya Of blame here But we all know the NFF can arrange accomodation at short notice for anybody. Why take them to a hotel owned by an NFF member.

chukxie: Nigerians are smarter than what the NFF spokesman thinks. He should produce as proof copies of the letters he claimed were sent to the Kenyan football ministry. As a host country it's our responsibility to ensure our guests are treated nicely. Kenyans are our brothers hence they deserved to be treated as one. Does any reasonable thinking Nigerian think this kind of shabby treatment would be meted out to Arab looking Africans? Your answer is as good as mine. An emphatic NO!
