The Chidinma Okeke you are talking about is not even a defender.. she is naturally a striker but was reverted to play as a center back by the U20 coach Kurugu.

There are better options at the Center Back position..
Opeyemi Sunday is a right back and she is not up to the Class of Ugo Njoku yet.... she is just 19yrs and can grow Asap.
A converted striker yet received a well-deserved accolade from coach Thomas Dennerby for her performance during U20 tournament. What would have happened if she has played her natural position during the aforementioned competition? Thank goodness I am not the coach because building a team for world cup competition would have been included in my cards during the AWCON. By the way, is Ugo Njoku in the invited list? I like the demeanor of the girl on the field.

Alaba Jonathan dropped? 4 goalies left in camp.
Super Falcons’ Head Coach, Thomas Dennerby has cut the number of home –based professionals in camp for the 11th Women Africa Cup of Nations finals holding in Ghana. The team has been training at the impressive Jubilee Chalets & Resort Epe, Lagos.

The Swede, who graciously allowed the players to feature for their respective clubs in the Nigeria Women's Football League (NWFL) at the weekend recalled a handful of those he feels can give the invited overseas-based professional players good fight for places in the final squad as Nigeria aim to retain her continental title and claim the trophy for the ninth time in 11 championships.

Among those retained in camp for the second phase camping which will commence immediately are four goalkeepers- Toochukwu Oluehi, Chiamaka Nnadozie, Christy Ohiaeriaku and Onyinyechukwu Okeke.

Others are Anam Imo, Rasheedat Ajibade, Peace Efih, Glory Ogbonna, Chioma Wogu, Alice Ogebe, Amarachi Okoronkwo and Chidinma Okeke. Also retained are Ugochi Emenayo, Sarah Nnodim and Nneka Julius.


Nasarawa Amazons defender, Christy Ucheibe was sent home from the camp on account of copping a long –term kneel injury.

http://www.thenff.com/2018/10/awcon-2018-dennerby-trims-number-of-players-in-camp/
I hope her club side and Nigerian federation are making sure that this girl's alleged kneel injury does not terminate her career. She is a good young player that will be even great for Nigeria.
SportsRe: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Duru1(m):

We're talking about AWCON here sir. That defence is by far the best coming to AWCON. Look at the other countries and you will see leggy defenders. Age is not a measure of pace for defenders. Ability to read a game is key. The AWCON is not known for rapid attackers who play quick European football. These our defenders will mostly have to deal with players in front of them, not ones running behind them. Even if they do make those runs, its only a case of sitting back a bit.
BTW, the ladies in camp yet to be fully kitted. Typical NFF neglect.
You have written like a typical African. Whether it is AWCON or World Cup, I start in time to build a team. Again, if I am the coach of the Falcon, it will be reserved to me to replace either Onome Ebi or Osinachi Ohale or both for Chidinma Okeke and another young defender such as Opayemi Sunday. If players are not known for their prime time or old age according to you, "Age is not a measure of pace for defenders", one wonders why players retire from the game.

You are insisting on that they are too Old, don't forget they play competitive Football in their various Leagues and still face younger Attackers there. Am very much okay with them since they still play what the coaches want..
By the way there are other defenders in the Squad that are younger who can still replace them if the need arises..
Josephine Chukwunonye 26yrs
Sarah Nnodim 22yrs
Glory Ogbonna 19yrs.
Yes I insisted they are too old and have played many matches that induced serious wear and tear. However you missed on the issue of mixing the old and youth at the same time. Again, if I am the coach of the Falcons, Chidinma Okeke, Emenayo, Ogbonna or Nnodim should be in the mix of my back four at a time not all times. I shall not be lured into sleep with tired legs.

All the defenders Listed are regular starters in their Club side.....
Faith Ikidi plays 90minutes for her Swedish club and she is their key defender.
Osinachi Ohale is the strongest their, she is tough, fast and the most difficult to get past.
Ebi is not very much Athletic again but she uses her Experience well in playing her position and she is still strong and good in the Air., She is a good marker.
Ebere is currently our Best Left Back, filled with overlapping run and can deliver some diffence splitting crosses... She can also score directly from the Corner kick and Free kick spot..
she does her diffensive duties well...
Yes regular starting brings its wear and tear. Africans seem not to learn or invent a method. Africans readily tow-cow silly precedence. I have always loved Faith Ikidi but also have seen her looked her age on the field especially when faced with younger and skillful attackers. Ebi and Ohale once looked like electric poles in recent world match in USA. Africans tend to open themselves to ridicules only to blame others on idiotic "racism". I repeat, the back four of Ebi, Ikidi, Ohale and Ebere is too old.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Has Taken 10 Steps Backwards – Senator Abaribe by Duru1(m): 6:51pm On Nov 07, 2018
Mrakeli:
Nigerian Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, on Wednesday, said Nigeria has taken one step forward and 10 steps backwards during plenary.

The senator representing the Abia-South Senatorial District of Abia State decried the critical state of pipe-borne water in the country.

“It is only in Abuja that one can find pipe-borne water. It’s a disgrace to Nigeria. We’ve gone one step forward and 10 steps back. We should be providing pipe-born water to every household in Nigeria,” he said.


Abaribe was reacting to Senator Dino Melaye’s comment on the alarming rate of scarcity of water supply in the nation.

Melaye said, “The Nigerian water sector is in critical condition. The situation is alarming and calls for immediate intervention.”

Senator Abaribe stated afterwards that an investigation should be made by the “committee” to find out what the fund on water has been used on.

Consequently, the Senate directed the committee on water supply to carry out a holistic investigation into the declining state of water in Nigeria. The Red chamber also urged the federal government to embark on a long-term commitment to find a pathway for better water delivery in Nigeria.

Senate President Bukola Saraki said the senate needs to get to the bottom of the water issue and find a solution that will improve water supply to Nigeria.

Saraki said the committee should take the work with the importance it deserves and quickly carry out investigations to particularly block the leakages in the area of corruption

He added, “This is of great concern to us. As a country, it is very embarrassing if our decline has gone down to 7% from 32%. As we all know, as a country, there must be adequate water supply for all our operations.”

ImperialYoruba:
Ibo women have no rights in their culture, period!

They face abuse and discrimination. As they marry into other cultures and find they are given roles which was uncommon and denied in their own culture they gain voice to speak out. Many have spoken out and lately Supreme court ruled to change some of these discriminatory practices in Iboland.

1. When Ibo woman marry Yoruba she moves up in society. She gains new rigjts and liberties.

2. Yoruba women that marry Ibo move their men up in society and open their eyes to new aspects of traditions and ethos they had never known.

3. When Osu move into Yorubaland they gain new economic freedom and social liberties. They discover they can own properties and are the same with everyone else.

4. Even children born into Yoruba/Ibo relationship learn etiquette of social relationships. They learn respect for elders and the false ego and loudness which is the hallmark of Ibo tradition is tamed in them and replaced with Omoluabi. Most important....they are trained to wake their father with greetings and felicitations...they are taught the value of "Eku...", and no product of such intermarriage ever use the known and widely accepted Ibo custom of rousing the father early in morning with a commanding shout and foot kick in the ribs.

I dare any Ibo to challenge these points. I have details and even reports from your homeland, as far back as 1950s to bring up as evidence. I will open a brand new thread just to showcase it.

So wake up and know your place and stop comparing your women's restricted behavior in their custom as equal with the practice everywhere else. No it is not...

And they left school the next Monday to join the Army and were sent straight to Sandhurst a few months later, and were commissioned in 1962 (unlike now).
