Sports › Re: Kanu Tops Nigeria's 50 Greatest Players by Ibomade1: 7:05pm On Jun 19, 2011 |
smile11s: Nigeria Legend Nwankwo Kanu emerged tops in our six-month quest to find Nigeria’s 50 greatest players on SuperSport.com.
The search for Nigeria’s fifty greatest players of all time was always going to be an interesting exercise and a hugely daunting task, especially as the online generation is mostly handicapped by the absence of enduring footage of players from years gone by. The international acclaim of great Nigerian teams from the USA 94 and France 98 Fifa World Cups and the 1996 Atlanta Olympics proved quite a strong influence in the voting, as did their exploits in Europe.
Tell us who you think deserves to be there and why. In the end perhaps Kanu's string of International honours earned him top place ahead of the incomparable Austin "Jay-Jay" Okocha :
1. Nwankwo Kanu 2. Austin Okocha 3. Sunday Oliseh 4. Rashidi Yekini 5. Segun Odegbami 6. Stephen Keshi 7. Emmanuel Amuneke 8. Finidi George 9. Christian Chukwu 10. Muda lawal 11. Peter Rufai 12. Daniel Amokachi 13. Taribo West 14. Uche Okechukwu 15. Teslim “Thunder”Balogun 16. Victor Ikpeba 17. Samson Siasia 18. Adokiye Amiesimaka 19Vincent Enyeama 20. Celestine Babayaro 21. Thomson Usiyan 22. Taiye ‘Taiwo 23. Henry Nwosu 24. Emmanuel Okala 25. Felix Owolabi 26. Haruna Ilerika 27. Joseph Yobo 28. Aloysius Atuegbu 29. Richard Owubokiri 30. Elkanah Onyeali 31. Patrick Ekeji 32. Best Ogedengbe 33. Bright Omokaro 34. Peter Anieke 35. Yisa Shofoluwe 36. Ben Iroha 37. Julius Aghahowa 38. Osaze Odemwingie 39. Albert Onyeawuna 40. Augustine Eguavoen 41. Yisa Shofoluwe 42. Obafemi Martins 43. Yakubu Aiyegbeni 44. Tijani Babangida 45. Tony Igwe 46. John Obi Mikel 47. Sam Garba Okoye 48. Friday Okoh 49. Etim Esin 50. Dan Anyiam
© SuperSport.com @ OP, how come Yisa Shofoluwe came out twice on the list?  |

This Man seem to mean business. The security vote has always been an issue of concern to me. Imagine all the money that Governors allocate for security. I hope some other Governors will take a leaf from this man. That is if there are not already vexed that this man is trying to spoil show for them. |
