Please let Kanu be. He has done very well for Nigeria. I really dont know why people are dragging him to the mud, now.  The likes of Gabriel Batistuta, Paul Gascoin, Gary Linekar even Alan shearer etc never won anything for their coutries, yet they are regarded as heroes today.
Kanu, u r a hero.

Thank u Kanu for everything the hand of God is upon u,

for those calling him bad names u should learn how to show appreciation, ok for example he did not play two matches and we lost them, the only one that he played we managed to get draw

what contribution, olympics games since 1996 what else have he done, instead of the goat to quit since like a perfect gentle man which he is, he decided to come to worldcup in place of stronger players, respect my a.ss. super eagles have now become a place for oldies imagine yakubu claiming to be 28 or kanu 33 when in real life they are in their 40s. please other than olympics what have this man done, so we should give obinna, and obasi lifetime pass to super eagles, because they also gave us silver medal in the olympics

He should have left when the ovation was high!

i wish we could renew ur strenght daddy. Maybe make u 10 years younger. Ur talent should be harnessed. Pls take a coaching training course. Papillo, The greatest ever,

I want ask 1 question to doz peeps wey dey talk rubbish against kanu. . .

what has kanu done wrong to deserve all this criticism from u bars-tards that gat nottin to offer to NIGERIA?
wetin una don ever do for NIGERIA since una mama shyt una out of this world from her a$$-hole?  
wetin una don achieve since wey margutts and bedburg like una don dey exist for this world?
where una dey when kanu win under 17 world cup for japan 1992?
where una dey when kanu win champions league with ajax?
where una dey when kanu dey win all the medals for arsenal?
where una dey when kanu win FA cup with pouthsmouth?
where una dey when kanu win the african player of the year?
where una dey when kanu was offered a contract with KARL KANI designers?
Even if una say kanu never do anything for NIGERIA, fine! KHF - na una papa dey organise/sponsor am?
Abeg i dey wait for una reply reply O, before i go unleash D wrath of OGUN 2 destroy una GENERATION.

Ya'll are FAILIURES! SHAME!!!

[size=28pt]MANY OF U CALLING KANU NAMES WLD PRAY DAY AND NIGHT TO BE LIKE HIM, MAYBE PELE  SHD'NT AV RETIRED.
4UR INFO,  THIS IS THE MOST DECORATED PLAYER ON AFRICAN SOIL, MANY COUNTRY HONOUR PLAYERS WITH LESS ACHIEVEMENT (ROGER MILLER, ABEDI-PELE, ETC),

KANU U ARE THE KING OF AFRICAN FOOTBALL,  SEE U LEADING THE U-17 EAGLES SOON,

I'LL ALWAYS RESPECT U, UR STORY, UR LEGEND.[/size]

@emmyk, i luv thy song.

@ Ranosky, Pls can you repeat your questions again and in big font and I bet none of the mediocres who berates him will have no answers. It takes a successful man who have gone through hard times to appreciate another successful fellow that have gone through the same. But a failure canstigate success because he/she has never gone through the xperience before.

have you noticed those people have not posted any comment apart from the 1st page.

They should name any sport man of Generation before Kanu and his generation who can boast of Kanu's achievement both off & on the field. If I'm not mistaken, apart from Eto, Kanu is the most decorated footballer in Africa.

Shame on you Kanu's haters. In as much as you have freedom of speech & can hide under fake identity to rubish a fellow countryman, you should learn to be truthful in your analysis.

For Kanu, remember Obey Commander's song that there is nothing you can do to satisfy human beings. You have done your best. You will remain in our hearts as a true legend

Papillo, i dough my hat, Gbam. U'll always b remembered, good luck in yo future endeavours.

All of you calling Kanu useless are the most useless animal. I know too well that you were the same persons that celebrated him in the 1996 olympic. Fools that know nothing butCriticism of what they themselves can not do.

Kanu the great,apart from George Weah and Eto'o,no player in Africa can measure up to you in terms of football glory.

Osaze Odemwingie ,in your life time,you will never lace Kanu's boot,so shut the fu-ck up.

[size=14pt]USE-LESS PEOPLE LIKE UNA, JOHN FASHANU DIS-HONOURED DIS COUNTRY AS A PLAYER, YET 2DAY MY USE-LESS COUNTRY PPLE HONOUR HIM WITH T.V APPERANCE HERE AND THERE.

HERE IS A MAN WHO NEVER DIS-HONOURED HIS COUNTRY, PLUS FLYING NIGERIAN FLAG AFTER WINNING THE F.A CUP AGAIN X3.

SHAME ON U ALL, REALLY SHAME ON U.[/size]

THINK OF [size=16pt]kanu Hearth Foundation[/size], HOW MANY CHILDREN WITHOUT HOPE HAS BEEN SAVED, SHAME ON U ALL X3

This is d most obvious topic on NL, that i'd expect 99% of respondents to write something good about, but can't believe some shameless animals could be writing bad things. Kanu, take it or leave it, he's in d class of Achebe's, Soyinka's, M.K.O'S, Okonjo's, George Weah's, even Mandela's of this world. Did u guys want to compare Papilo to Jay Jay or what?

^^^Abeg help me dey lecture dem OO! I'll advice u to just be proud to urself b'cos u'v lectured peeps that know shyt abt KING KANU and are tryna pretend that they know all about him.

@12large
U know say we NIGERIANS know ourselfs wella. we no dey appreciate wetin we get, but make i ask u something?
tell me wetin CHRISTIANO RONALDO (ex-world footballer of the year) don do for PORTUGAL?
b4 he scored the goal he (C Ronaldo) scored against N.KOREA, when last did he score for his country?
U and i know's who is the best player in the world presently, but who was rated the lowest mark in ARGENTINA's world qualification?   ***All the crititsm b'cos KING KANU na NIGERIAN. may GOD help una.***

I think we need Kanu for another 15 years.

Yakubu for another 20 years.

Yobo for another 25.

Good they are still agile and fit for our national call.

They are all wellcome to World Cup 2030.

i think that kanu is the best among nigerian players. not minding his health, he still plays like a lion he has always been, i hope to see him as a coach leading the young eaglet soon. go kanu you are the best
papilooooooooo

ITS GOOD FOR HIM SHAAAAAAAA

BT JOHN UTAKA SHOULD BE ALLOWED INTO D NEW LOOK EAGLES.
DATS D MISTAKE LAGERBACK MADE BY NT CHOOSING HIM TO PLAY ON D PITCH

He should have quit after ATLANTA but its better late than never.

thank God, Selfish man

WHY Kanu, , WHY

we need you for 2014,2018 and 2022 world cups
am sure with Papilo and Peak milk we can win the world cup then

please Kanu reconsider. Its too early to retire now,

Bad riddance to Good rubbish. Pity such a great player did not score a Nations cup goal

Some people are so foolish that they never realized it until when they are on their deathbed. We have always known that the heart of the fool is in his mouth. If not for their lowlife thinking and unpolished mentality, how could people be saying Kanu is now useless. kanu is a hero and will always be. He has made his own unique impression upon the surface of his fatherland. What have you achieved in life that is comparable to Kanu's. Better shut ur ultra-stinking mouth and let people with diginity and patrotic virtues grace NL.

Some nasty people on this thread. How can someone in his/her right senses condemn Kanu .

Someone that has always given his 100% to his fatherland. So many slowpokes around N/L these days, no wonder many reasonable people are leaving here in droves.

I tire for some retards on N/L ooo!!!

King Kanu, as you go into retirement, may all the remaining days of your life be filled with happiness

Thank you so much, my hero !

i hold you to high esteem !

Your commitment to our country

and children of Africa,

May God in his infinite mercy bless you beyond measures.
