A close ally to under - fire Flying Eagles coach, Manu Garba, has dismissed suggestions that he received gratification from Saviour Godwin’s agent to include the FC Sports forward in his 21 - man roster for the World Cup at the expense of Alhassan Ibrahim. And he has stressed that Manu Garba’s lieutenant, Nduka Ugbade, was behind Godwin joining the team after he was snubbed for the African
Youth Championship.
“Nduka Ugbade brought Saviour to
the team not Manu Garba, he asked
him to come back and join them after he played for the Olympic Team in the Super 6,” the top source told allnigeriasoccer.com.
Kelechi Iheanacho dropped to the
bench after the Flying Eagles opener
against Brazil and there had been
suggestions that Manu Garba took
that decision after the Manchester City starlet refused to pay him a bribe.
“If you watched the game with Brazil, deep inside you, you will say the truth that Kelechi was a shadow of himself.
“We can not question the coaches for not playing Kelechi, Success and Musa Yahaya because they know these players more than any other person.
“It was coach Nduka that asked Manu Garba to remove the three players from the starting line-up after the Brazil game.
“The people making these false
accusations are after their personal
interest,”he concluded.
The Nigeria squad will land in Abuja
tomorrow after departing New
Zealand on Friday.

The truth is gradually unfolding.

Allnigeriasoccer.com can confirm
beyond reasonable doubt that former
Catania player Prince Ogbonna has
threatened to arrest Flying Eagles
coach, Manu Garba, if he fails to credit
his bank account with the sum of
=N=500,000 (equivalent of $2,500).
Prior to the 2015 Fifa Under 20 World
Cup, the two parties had reached a
gentleman’s agreement in principle
that the under - fire Nigeria Under 20s
manager would invite three of
Ogbonna’s proteges to the Flying
Eagles camp.
And while Ogbonna kept to the pact,
Manu Garba failed to honour the
agreement despite receiving the
money via a cash deposit.
A top source told
allnigeriasoccer.com : “There is no
way Manu Garba can deny this one.
Prince Ogbonna sent one of the boys
that was supposed to be invited for
the training camp to make the
deposit.
“He is now in Italy but has promised
to arrest Manu Garba when he returns
to the country. He wants the money
returned to his account.”
Manu Garba was contacted to hear his
side of the story but he failed to pick
up his calls and did not respond to
