Why am I not surprised? Our useless NFF, they would ignore him while inviting aged men like Musa and Shehu, then once another country starts showing interest on him, they will start going to take photo ops with him.

I mean, if the NFF are not clueless, they would immediately get him into our system along with Arthur Okonkwo of Arsenal.

Some of these selective highlights can be very deceiving, bruh. One of Ekong’s weaknesses in the game is poor passing.

Please, I wonder how someone who has this kind of technique can be the worst passer.

Giving Up In Life Is Never An Option, See This Personal Experience

Good day Nairalanders.
So I saw a thread that hit front page about ways of getting new jobs and I remembered this my personal experience and decided to share


I remembered applying for work at the federal Inland Revenue service here in Abuja, immediately after my service by the way i studied economics , so names was shortlisted for interview, we wrote the test and out of 15,000 candidates, though exams was scheduled separate days because of number of applicants , 50 was successfull and was short listed boom I checked and my name was number 18, my joy knew no bound, I didn't tell anyone as I wanted to take my people by surprise including my parents and siblings. cheesy
after that interview, they invited us for an oral interview.

I attended the interview and after the interview, 35 name was successful, I checked boom my name was number 12 on the list,
After the interview, we where all given breakdown of how the salary was like, omo, I see money tears dropped from my eyes, I was anticipating how to renovate my family house after working like for 6 months and changing my parents car as it was well deserved,

After the interview we where waiting for a mail to confirm our employment letter and posting, after waiting for 2 weeks no news, I went to the headquarters were we did our interview and was reliably informed that new recruit had resume work since, I made further inquiry and I was made to understand that the final interview was done on Sunday, and our names were replaced with people that lobbied,
I shouted, on Sunday, ?? Government work?? And we where never informed and
minimum of 7million naira was used to swap our names with the people that paid.

I find cry, I no see, cry I was depressed for almost 2 months, my babe will come and see me emantiating by the day as I refuse to eat, this girl will come to my house and cry from Morning till night begging me to eat, chai true love they shaa, love really shark her that year, but I bounced back to my feet and moved on.
And thank God, I am doing well for myself, and I pray that the Lord continues to shower me and everyone that refuse to give up blessings in abundance.

Most times when you see people contemplating suicide on the media, don't use it as a joke, encourage them not to commit suicide if u must comment, because most people vent their frustrations on the media waiting for validation, and believe me they do take anything said to them to heart 100%, unlike other people out there, I never contemplated suicide because I know I have got a thick skin and can survive the street, one of the advantages of being street smart, e never get wetin eye never see, so trolling and name calling and shaming on the internet don't move people like me, learn how to develop a thick skin in every situation like this. Most importantly don't ever wait for media validation in your personal life, what the media says don't mean nothing and won't affect you in anyway, know this and know peace

I hope someone learnt one or two things from my story.

What?! What kind of agreement is that? Continue to pay him his full salary while he’s for all intents and purposes no longer works for you! Are you freaking kidding mehuh

Don’t they have a termination clause on Rohr’s contract? Or is this just another scheme for the NFF bigwigs to line their pockets? Nigeria has fallen beyond repair.


O pari

NFF has entered an agreement with Rohr to continue to pay him his $45K till Dec. 2022, he won’t be sacked as he will still be under a contract even with a new manager.

But all benefits will stop as soon as Rohr accepts a new job.

As concerns to Mladen Krstajić, he definitely wouldn’t be my choice. But having said that, you don’t really need to be a super coach to manage national teams. Being a national team coach is different from coaching at club level. As a national team coach, you just need to be a good man manager and a decent level of technical competence to be successful.

Hence, many great national team coaches don’t replicate the same results when they coach at club levels. And I can give many examples: Gareth Southgate, Louis Van Gaal, Julen lopetegui, etc etc.

Alex Iwobi with the ball is world class but, sometimes, he appears a little confused without the ball regarding his positioning and off the ball movement.

And I find that a little strange because he learned how to play the game in Europe so it’s a bit surprising that those skills weren’t drilled into him in the academy.

Omo, with our reputation, those types of coaches are not going to look our way. Do you remember how many coaches that rejected us before we got Rohr?

And by the way, I give Rohr credit for bringing orderliness and organization to the Super Eagles. My concern is that, once we fire him, we’ll get back to the time when Super Eagles is the center of chaos.

Honestly NFF supposed to have sack Rohr after 2018 WC but I can't really say much on local coaches but why can't we have a respected manager with highly tactical assistant....if I have my way Amuneke should assist just like Keshi assisted Amodu and the duo qualified Nigeria to 2010 WC.

Amuneke isn't exactly the right man for the job..But he is the best choice available at the moment... If the NFF want to appoint a foreign coach now, they will most likely go for another mow budget journeyman like Rohr..the kind of coaches that left their comfort zones in Europe to milk off African countries who have carried the mentality that everything white is better..The coaches that can't boost of any credible trophies in their CV... It won't benefit us in the long run... That's where Amuneke comes in... He has proven that he is tactically sound, and also understand our football well,being an ex international himself...

He showed his mettle when he took a hapless Tanzanian team to AFCON. When last did Tanzania qualified for AFCON before Amuneke? And where’s the team after he resigned?

To me, Amuneke will perform wonders if given a young and talented team like Nigeria. Don’t forget how well his U-17 and U21 teams played.
