Whatever happened to Ruben Agboola? who used to play for the Super Eagles in the 90's, some half cast kid who played in the days of Westerhorff

Remember James Obiora had a brief tenure in the Super Eagles during the S. Korea/Japan WC but messed up at Spartak Moscow and dropped from view.

My all time hero - Thompson Usiyen! A true playa! I heard he was coaching in the US.

isaac semitoje nko?
friday elahor,
even amuneke?

o ga o NIGERIA, the country that uses and dumps her players like crap!!!

joseph dosu nko?

Segedoo,
Thank u my brother, I have been trying to remember that guys name: Amunike. The guy did well at BARCA. But his carrier was brought to an abrupt end by bad knee injury.
Does anyone remember the Olukanni brothers? Femi and Segun Olukanni. Muri Onigbanjo (scoror)
, Okoloba, Raymond King, Lets not forget the goalkeepers,
Cheers guys.

this is a good database of naija footballers-past and present www.nigerianplayers.com
u will be suprised the names u find there. Name the player and you will find him there.

Eddie Dombraye

i saw this wicked thread. real good idea; one could use the nostalgia-

how about uwem ekarika, clement temile, [ i think they played with taribo west], david ngodiga, friday elaho!, godwin okpara [who dealt with ronaldo once], humphrey edobor, anosike [who played with kanu & oruma in japan], henry nwosu, philip osondu, chris nwosu, lemmy isa!, andrew aikhomogbe, monday odiaka, chris ohenhen,


how time flies.

HUMPHREY EDOBOR
OKEY ISIMA
THOMPSON USIYEN
MUDA LAWAL

let me stop b4 i give out my age with all these older players from the 80's

Muda Lawal is dead

Chris Ohenhen and Emman amunike lives in Spain.

Godwin Okpara is in Prison

Godwin Opara in prison? What happened?

Does anyone remember Chikelue Iloenyesi?

His continued invitation the National Team was a source of puzzlement for those who knew him for at the time,he was not playing proffesional football but actually working full time as a car dealer

Remember Tarila "Thriller" Okorowanta
Emma Osigwe, Elastic Elahor, Edobor, Chris Anigala,

Wonderful players!

@ogbonge
u sure did a good job by bringing up www.nigeriaplayers.com
its so interesting, nostalgic feelings all ova man

Well I remember Ademola Adeshina

Also Etim Esin

What happened to Precious Monye?

Remember Leotis Boateng? (he mustve been Ghanian but played in the Nigerian league)

There was this midfielder in our Japan 93 team who was known for his hot shots from range, anyone remember his name?

Whatever happened to Adokie Amesiamaka?

Has anybody mentioned Adekola, I can't remember his first name again, i think his name Ademola but the guy I'm talking about is elder brother of Late Ireti Adekola of Yoruba moves and his also a friend to Olumide Harris. And another one is Femi Opabunmi.

Andew Uwe?

Have we forgotten so soon, Victor Igbinoba, the guy that scored the last goal that finished the Germans in the 1985 U16 Tournament in China? What about their captain, Nduka Ugbade, saw him on TV about 2 weeks ago, the guy Westerhoff denied the chance of making the record of being the first person to play in all FIFA age group competition by denying him a place in the squad of USA 94 Eagles.

here is the Godwin Okpara story http://nigeriasports.com/2761

im not sure how long he's going to be in prison

a big shame!

@1forall: Perhaps you are talking about Karibe Ojigwe

Yeah thanks abdblues it was Karibe Ojigwe, that guy fired a shot if he had half a chance. Wonder what he's up to now.

Boller I think youre referring to Adeolu Adekola he played for Leventis or Shooting?

Cyclone Adokiye na old man o, he was sport commissioner in rivers state at a time.

Cyclone Adokiye na old man o, he was sport commissioner in rivers state at a time.

I know but he had the sweetest left wing dribble of anyone in the world ever.

Abeg, make somebody mention Samson Ozogula.
Nduka Ugbade and Bela Momoh of the Golden eaglets 1985
Agboni basket (agbonivbare)
Patrick and Emannuel Okala ( I think Emannuel is late now)
Raymond King.

This is from a beautiful new face, Nobody is forgotten, they say out of sight is out of mind. We naigers like good things a lot, but it does not matter if Eto'o comes from Naiger or Cameroon what truly mater's is that He is an African and that makes me even more proud.

Ireke, those names sounds, kind of, oldschools, dont really mean it
