Siasia and his boys are an embarrassment
No wonder he took mikel along and made him captain to reenact what the super eagles did 2years ago in Brazil.


I think it is high time anybody representing Nigeria henceforth must sign a code of conduct

It's just as if some of u are being brainwashed or cursed, what image are u guys talking about? Is it the image your useless president has destroyed already by terming you and your family fantastically corrupt?

I support the boys to boycott the match, you can't give Lai Mohammed 10m to China for useless trip then look the other way round for our national interests.
