exactly. And they will tell u " make I no enjoy?". Nobody said you should not enjoy but do it responsibly.

very true

Shorty11:
Someone who is not yet arrives in terms of career achievement. Just because Africa football of the year. Let him prove himself this season. Average player after all. So if he matches eto , or Thierry, he would have called Tinubu or Nff president olórí burúkú. When he said he doesn't have Godfather in the team

If he wont apologize make them take that MON award from am - You cant swear Ogun for Nigerians and be hanging on to the MON award of Nigerians you swore ogun for - e no make sense.

chiefolododo:
Oga you wrote an epistle because of what Osimen did? I want to believe you don't have any personal issue with him

No, I dont - I was even one of Osimhen’s biggest fans until that video, I am very disappointed in him - I am partly from Edo State and Osimhen is my brother but I cant take that nonsense from Osimhen because Finidi is one of those players those days who never complained when he played for Nigeria- he was like the Late Rashidi Yekini, very humble to a fault- and he did his job with utmost ease playing his heart out - he is a quiet man na him make Osimhen see am finish. IF Osimhen apologize today to Finidi and Nigerians and show remorse, I will be his greatest fan again, I dont just want that Osihmen indiscipline to take root in the Super Eagles, it will spread because other players will copy it and then the team is destroyed by indiscipline

This indiscipline was the reason Samuel Eto was banished from Barcelona despite being a great player - Pep said Eto has a very bad attitude and can destroy the dressing room with bad influence- yes he was sent packing from Barcelona the day he scored in the Champions League finals against Manchester United, he was still in the pitch celebrating the win when words got to him that Barca has finalized plans to let him go and he became angry


Think about what you just read - because no player is bigger than the club…

omoredia:
I don't believe this Nigerian govt on any matter. Finidi and Victor are brothers and will solve the matter as such. The NFF is there to only take sides for personal gains and not for the good of our football.

shorrop there.. this is how you plant the seed of insubordination- how Finidi, an Efik man from Cross River State take be brother to Osimhen, an Esan man from Edo State ?

Osimhen must apologize to all his Ogun swearing victims - Finidi and All Nigerians publicly and show remorse - for him to be forgiven- He swore for Nigerians and Finidi publicly and he must make his apology too public

what nonsense- weak people everywhere taking bs from anyone with cash - rabbish!

ceejay10:
Osimhen should watch his lifestyle. Nothing kills a football career faster than party, alcohol and unhealthy foods.

Him village people don dey on him matter - he will end up as another Etim Esin

My mentor once told me when a man geta richer the things he used to get away with as a poor man will be traps for him

He can get easily poisoned
He can be accused of rape - and if na EU
All him money will be taken away paying for
damages- the same NFF he is swearing Ogun for now will be the only one that can bail him out (patnering with FIFA) when the chips are down

He can be charged for tax evasion when the “big dogs” want to really nail him

Instead of the mumu to feel remorseful and apologize - he is chasing clout on social media trying to orove to be the darling of celebrities

we dey watch, If Osimhen fails to apologize to Finidi and Nigerians for that show of shame - rhen henhas marked himself for career destruction

chiefolododo:
I do not think this is the right time to punish anyone. Qualify for world cup first.

Osimen only expressed himself

No this is the best time to punish him- I will rather we miss the world cup than allow what Victor did to stand because IF this situation is not nipped in the bud right now, it will set a wrong precedence in the team that certain players can get away with anything, and one day, someone like Osihmen will slap a Coach - and it will be free for all fight, do you want the Super Eagles to be in the news for such event? na so e take dey start, when misbehavior is overlooked and not punished- it will grow wings until it becomes a normal thing for Coaches to be slapped by players - Victor must be punished

In the last nations cup, Ghanaian fans almost physically attacked the players of the black stars at their hotel entrance, they poured insults on them and mocked them like say tomorrow no dey - they blocked their bus from even leaving the hotel - they blamed key players like Mohammed Kudus, the Ayew Brothers (Dede and Jordan) for the poor showing of the Black Stars, did any of these players swear Ogun for the fans ?

- IF France can do without Kareem Benzema when he was World Player of the Year, definitely Osimhen is not bigger than Nigeria


In 1989, Some Super Eagles players then did almost what Victor did right now - they talked trash to the press about NFF and demanded for $30,000 to be payed to them upfront before they show up for camp at Algiers’1990 Nations cup

Players like (now Late) Steven Keshi, (now Late) Phillip Osondu, Samson Siasia and co held the nation to ransom and we were all panicking about our nations cup showing - You know what Clemens Westerhoff, our Dutch technical adviser did then ? he expelled all of them from the team - these were Nigeria’s best then - we still came back from that tournament with Silver Medal even though our boys were very inexperienced, they were very hungry for success because they never expected such opportunity.

Westerhoff threw the camp open for whoever wants to play to come play—/ many unknown players came and one of them was a 17 year old Daniel Amokachi from Ranchers Bees of Kaduna, Others were Ben Iroha, Toyin Ayinla, Ayo (Dodo) Ogunlana, Uche Okechukwu, Osita Aniweke, Ajibade Babalade, Moses Kpakor, Friday Elahor, Thompson Oliha, Alloy Agu, Isaac Semitoje, Herbet Anijekwu, Emma Okocha (Jay Jay Okocha’s elder brother) and a few others that became the best Super Eagles of 1994

And when the recalcitrant players like Keshi found out that Nigeria survived without them, they became more commited and issued apology to the team and country and their patriotism spiked. That event taught me a leason that in life, learn to let go for certain things to work out

So Stop displaying fear and weakness by trying to cuddle nonsense - Victor must be punished and if he cant take the punishment let him retire from International football, he is not the first to do so and he wont be the last- the world does not revolve around Osimhen


If my favorite player ever and the deadliest and most lethal finisher in world football history - Marco Van Basten could retire at a very young age of 25 because of Injury and the world of football did not stop, then Osimhen can retire from the super eagles and the world of Nigerian football will continue, talents abound in Nigeria - he will not be missed more than 6 months trust me!!!!

Yugoslavia247:
Who will punish NFF for corruption
Taking bribe from players
Always owing foreign coaches
Always handling our players anyhow. Not paying flight ticket.


NFF has no moral right whatsoever.

"They may allow Iranians, Pakistanis and some Sudanese serve as police officers"

This isn't limited to Iranians, Pakistanis or Sudanese. Any nationality can serve as police officers but they'll never get citizenship. They won't even hire Pakistanis as police easily because as a high level officer in the UAEs police force, Dhahi Khalfan, tweeted, most Pakistanis in the UAE are criminals.

The bold parts, please provide proof that he called most Pakistani’s in the UAE criminals

stop saying what you dont know!

What's the value of UAE investments in Nigeria?

UAE is a just a place Nigerians go to import, import and import, taking away the USD we don't even have in this country.

Those who go there to work will have to spend 30 years to become citizens.

Why is lifting this visa ban important? Make it make sense.

When I become president, I will bar Nigerians from entering many countries in Asia, South America and Middle East.

sorry Sir, UAE never grants citizenship to anyone that is not originally an Emarat - They may allow Iranians, Pakistanis and some Sudanese serve as police officers IF they were born there and have lived in UAE all their lives and that is subject to the recommendation of their Dubai Court of First Instance and their local Mosque Imam. Mind you, they are still not citizens - The ONLY Iranians who got UAE citizenship were those who lived in UAE for 10 years prior to UAE Independence in 1971 - Thanks!

godwon01:
Osimen need to thread softly. . If you know today , you don't know tomorrow. Finidi is old enough to be his father. We need to look for a good striker and not relying on him. Nigeria is bigger than any individual. We're is Yekinni , Siasia, Ikpeba, Okocha, Kanu , Ayegbeni , the Uche brothers and Amunike today. He need to calm down seriously. He need to start respecting his elders in the profession. The other time he talks to Ikpeba any how. It is not good at all.

God Bless you abundantly!!!

helinues:


Before Osimhen could go on TikTok abi na where, he must have been reacting to something.

For him to have been reckless on live chat, he could have been more reckless when engaging with Finidi. Infact Osimhen attacked Nigeria supporters too with his recklessness

Finidi is matured enough to just let it slide after all, he has resigned

OSIMHE IS A FOOL ----- To hell with him. Maradona spoke bad about Messi - did Messi swear Ogun for Maradona ?

Money miss road former pure water seller turned millionaire lacking class - IF he has endorsements from reputable companies as brand ambassador, he is gonna lose them because no reputable company wants to use an Ogun-swearing tout as their image maker

VinnyBaba:
Osihmen problem is FRUSTRATION.

After being Mocked by some of his Critics for Scoring only 1 goal at the AFCON,
he has been looking for you to Unleash the Anger on.

So Finidi matter gave him Opportunity to transfer Aggression.

He is a YEYE boy.

Messi is the most abused player living or dead - retired or still playing - WHY ? because MANY expected him to step into Maradona's shoes easily because of his talent and speed - he was criticized year in year out for not winning the world cup for Argentina - at some point he retired from international football because of frustration BUT he never insulted Diego Maradona who was putting too much pressure on him to succeed him as the next Argentine great --- instead he worked on himself and at the ripe "old age for footballers - 34" He won his first senior team trophy for Argentina - Copa America and at 35, when 90% of all footballers have retired, Messi won the World cup for Argentina!

That is what great players do- silencing criticism by their effort and focus, producing spectacular result - not swearing ogun up and down on social media - hab a --- abi Osimhen is an Ogun priest wannabe ? that boy like ogun no be small ----- Ogun Priest Victor Osimhen

People just look at what Maradona said of Messi - Did Finidi ever say such about Osimhen? Maradona was practically insulting Messi before Pele but Messi never responded- he made it happen on the pitch, sadly Maradona did not live to see Messi win the world cup BUT Messi always respected Maradona and said Maradona is a good man and a legend - he just wants me to do better than him by saying these things - I hope those supporting Osimhen are watching - Messi never swore Ogun for Maradona 😂

REDshouse:
Who is Osimehn is , a name of a place or thing cos here in our hood na finidi we sabi..tueh Osimehn

no mind am - yeye pure water seller turn millionaire - class less - swearing ogun on social media

Opanka44:
Osimhen is so arrogant and disrespectful honestly. He can't try this with ARTETA, Mourinho or Guardiola. He wouldn't even dare do such at his side club. Why didn't he reply those who were racially abusing him in Italy? He would have gone under the radar by now.

Exactly !!!

By 2054, a small brat born in 2031 (7 years from now - who will be playing for Real Madrid then in the future -probably will be Nigeria's first World Footballer of the Year ) na him go swear Ogun for Super Eagles Coach Victor Osimhen --- life na turn by turn no worry - e go reach every body

Ikpunekenwa:
Sir, but wait oo, Finidi is that you?

No I am just an elderly fan of the super eagles since 1980

victory36:
legend of who? Bro has just one good season and is being called a legend 😒

you are crazy ---- i dont blame you - because u are a kid

Finidi was great from 1991 to 2002 before he hung his boot - his very first game for the super eagles was in the 7-1 manhandling of the stallions of Burkina Faso by the Super Eagles of Nigeria in 1991, and Finidi scored - I watched that match live - then Finidi was in Calabar Rovers -- FROM there he moved to Ajax ---- I dont need to repeat myself here - what FINIDI achieved with AJAX from 1994-1997- Victor Osimhen will be too luck to achieve half of it in his career - go and research ---- and when Finidi moved to Real Betis - here is one of his games destroying Barcelona in the finals of the Spanish Cup. Pride will destroy Osimhen and he will return to that gutter he came from since he cant respect elders

Every Coach talks bad of their players sometimes to bring the best out of them - Have you seen Jose Maurinho talk down players before ? Brendan Rogers? Sir Alex Fergusson, Roberto Manchini? that is their job-- to play the mind game on players to bring the best out of them -- WHEN MARADONA accused MESSI IN 2010 THAT MESSI IS ONLY A BARCELONA PLAYER WHO CANT DO ANYTHING SPECTACULAR WHEN HE IS WEARING THE JERSEY OF THE NATIONAL TEAM OF ARGENTINA --- now read this again - MESSI CAME TO PLAY FOR ARGENTINA OOOOOO YET MARADONA ACCUSED HIM OF NOT DOING ENOUGH to be that great player to take over from him - how many times did MESSI swear OGUN FOR MARADONA ?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llktgY7ppBI

Use your brain little child - IF Finidi was the coach of the team Osimhen plays for in Europe and Finidi talks trash to him - will Osimhen talk anyhow to him ? The Great Pep Guardiola of Barcelona and Manchester City na Finidi mate for football - he is the first Barca player Finidi dribbled in the video below - can Osimhen talk to Pep Guardiola anyhow ? --- useless GEN Z -- RESPECT YOUR ELDERS SO U CAN LIVE LONG

By 2054, a small brat born in 2031 (7 years from now - who will be playing for Real Madrid then in the future -probably will be Nigeria's first World Footballer of the Year ) na him go swear Ogun for Super Eagles Coach Victor Osimhen --- life na turn by turn no worry - e go reach every body

Oracle411:
He's a frustrated man, looked for who to pull down with him, stupidly chose Osimhen

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnNt8fXCtyw

shorrop ya dirty mouth - Before Osimhen was born - Finidi was already a legend - look at Finidi destroying Barcelona - the first player Fiinidi dribbled past in this video is the (then) Barcelona Captain Pep Guardiola, who is currently the Coach of Manchester City - can Osimhen dare insult Pep Guardiola - thun da fa ya ona yan sh

10mobile:
What's that? Is that also why he was calling out Osimhen?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnNt8fXCtyw

Osimhen is a MU MU - this is Finidi George destroying Barcelona FC before Osimhen was born. RESPECT YOUR ELDERS!!!!

KosiGee:
Can Osimhen talk or address Ferguson, Mourihno and Pep Guardiola like that?

Certain reactions should be in the dressing room or he could call the manager and have a heart to heart talk.

Not everything should be aired on social media. He was even threatening the guy who was trying to calm him down. Wtf….and even screaming and swearing on anyone who would criticise him. What kind of a foolish player and man is he.

na money dey cash am na ----- stu peed pure water seller for traffic turn millionaire thinking he owns the world - even Messi wont talk to anybody like that --- even Diego Maradona at some point was blaming Messi for not showing up and doing exploits for Argentina like he does for Barcelona- yes - Maradona was blaming Messi not once but for years - Messi never insulted Maradona, instead it inspired him as he doubled his effort for Argentina and the rest is history today as Messi has won the world cup and copa America --- ONLY once Finidi talk - word finish for Osimhen mouth --- i hate nansense

ourcrudeoil:
Finidi George was a bench warmer.

Op. Osimen is a special player in his team and team depend on him being one of the best and a game changer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Pv8ytRpAiE


you are very ignorant --- a bench warmer at Ajax OR Super Eagles ? Have you seen Finidi's goal for Ajax against Bayern Munich in Champions League Semi Finals in 1995? --- Super Eagles nko, Finidi scored that goal that took us to USA 94 in Algiers -IF not for that goal - there will be no USA'94 exploits for the super eagles - u must be high on UKWALE weed


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc8GF28Rkjs

ManOfSon:
As of today June 15th 2024, Findi George will be judged not on his laurels as a player but on his achievements as Super Eagles coach. In that case, he's a failure. Period!

Finidi's only crime is that he is now older and not having cash like Victor Osimhen BUT Victor should realize that as long God grants one life- day dey break, day dey dark - him self go reach Finidi age someday and small boy wey dem born in 2031 na him swear shango for am too for 2054

This life na turn by trun -- grin e go reach everybodi turn

Fineman2:
Osimhen should apologize to this legend, I don't know why people from that side are defending him

Finidi George also represented Nigeria in two FIFA World Cups, 1994 and 1998.

Finidi's only crime is that he is now older and not having cash like Victor Osimhen BUT Victor should realize that as long God grants one life- day dey break, day dey dark - him self go reach Finidi age someday and small boy wey dem born in 2031 na him swear shango for am too for 2054

This life na turn by trun -- e go reach everybodi turn

Sheggy13:
But all these didn't matter in Lagos when the obedients were pushing for a relatively unknown GRV ahead of incumbent Sanwo-Olu that was already tested and trusted. What resume does GRV have apart from shouting I went to MIT, compared to Sanwo-Olu, to warrant them pushing for him to topple Sanwo-Olu? You can see the hypocrisy now.

is the state capture by one man for 25 years not irritating to you ? Apart from Government appointment - what is in Sanwo-Olu's CV that makes him stand head and shoulders above GRV? What are Sanwo Olu's pre-APC achievements? career wise and educational qualifications that is better than GRV? GRV is an MIT grad - (Ivy-Leaguer in the US) did many "verifiable" projects in Louisiana relating to urban planning after Hurricane Katrina and many more in Africa and Nigeria - so what?

I love Peter Obi no doubt -Olumide is not my enemy for sure - BUT Asue Ighodalo has an impressive resume - that dwarfs everyone in the race- REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE - with classy achievements spanning nothing less than 30 years

Olumide should be grateful to be appointed a Commissioner in Asue's incoming administration - HABA, is like nominating Sadio Mane with Messi for World Footballer of the Year

Sadio is good, very good - but not in the class of Messi

Na so comparing Olumide with Asue be - Asue is Messi, Olumide is Sadio Mane, I rest my case!!!!!

The reflection of Nigeria citizens are our leaders in all institutions in Nigeria no discipline at all level.. Imagine someone that went dumb when Napoli fans and club were bullying him now flexing musle on a country that made him. So Ridiculous. God help this country called Nigeria coz it look’s irredeemable

The day I understood who Victor Osimhen is was when the team was being welcomed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport Abuja after the finals of the Nations Cup - Press men just wanted to have a word with him - he dismissed them saying "make ona free me joor" pushing them aside - who da fvcccccck does he think he is ? - even the GOAT Messi never dismissed his Argentine press when he lost the finals of the world cup to Germany in 2014 - Let me ask one question, because this Osimhen pride is so irritating --- Is Victor Osimhen the first U-16 World Cup winner who became an African Player of the year with Nations Cup silver medal and a League Winner medal in Europe? --- NOOOOOOOO

Before him was a certain Kanu Nwankwo -- He won the U-16 World Cup in Japan 1993, Won Atlanta Olympics Gold Medal in 1996 scoring 2 great goals against a Brazillian side that later had 2 world footballers of the year (Ronaldo and Rivaldo) - same Kanu won the Dutch Eredivisie League Shield, Won the Dutch FA Cup, Won the European Champions League Cup, Won the World Football Club Cup with Ajax Amsterdam (with Finidi George as his team mate at Ajax Amsterdam in 1994/95 season) - Won 2 African Footballer of the Year for the years (1996,1999) - Won the English Premiership and FA cup with Arsenal, (Kanu was among that Arsenal legendary “invincible” team of 1998/99 season that did not lose a single match both in the league and FA Cup, scoring sensational goals week in / week out - a team comprising of the great Thierry Henry, Roberto Pires, Gilberto Silva, Ray Parlor, Bergkamp, Sullvan Wiltord, Patrick Vieira, Ashley Cole and a host of other world class / great footballers of that era - Won the FA Cup with Portsmouth, AND yes, Kanu won a silver in the African Cup of Nations, 2000 (it should have been gold if Goal line technology was there then to validate Ikpeba's penalty miss) ----- In World Football reckoning - can Osimhen lace Kanu's boots? have we ever heard Kanu insult anyone like Victor just did ? when someone lacks home training selling pure water in the traffic and fortune smile's on that person - this is always the result - gutter attitude....

One can make as much money as he can - but CLASS cant be bought!!! - Victor Osimhen is a tout and if he were a French, Spanish, English, Brazillian or German National Team Player - he will be given at least 2 years ban for this travesty ---swearing ogun on social media - what a pile of sh IT behavior!

He should go and ask why David Ginola AND Eric Cantona did not make the French National team of 1998 that won the World cup as talented as they were then? INDISCIPLINE, they were chased out of the French National Team ------- Victor must tender an unreserved apology to Finidi George-- a Nigerian hero who scored that lone goal in Algeria to give Nigeria that first world cup ticket in 1993 -- after so many near misses for almost 50 years of trying ----- that Finidi goal sent Nigeria to our first world cup ever --- Long before Osimhen was born ---- I watched that match live - Algeria scored through Cherif Quazzani - the same man that scored the lone goal to give Algeria victory over Nigeria in 1990 Nations Cup Finals ---- That match almost gave 180 million Nigerians High BP as it was tension soaked from the blast of the whistle - Na Finidi goal that night give us that ticket ----- to tell you how that qualifier series was so important then - Ghana under the great Abedi Pele AND Tony Yeboah - as hot as they were then in Europe did not qualify for that world cup in USA 1994---- I hate nansense!!!!!! small money and small fame, Victor just dey swear ogun for everybodi

NIGERIA too big VICTOR OSIMHEN - with or without you - we will get it right -- you better be humble because your decline is about to start with this your gutter attitude --- nansense!!!

100%. If it's possible, those girls should be tagged, or else they would find themselves back in that same Ghana in less than a month after rescue.

See how tables turn
In the early 1980’s up to the late 90’s
In Nigeria, na Ghana women dey do ashawo
The men dey do Shoe Maker work,

Then their educated men and women were
mostly teachers in secondary schools
Then Indian Teachers mostly taught Maths and Science in some Nigerian schools

Today nko, 35 to 45 years later - na the children or grandchildren of those Nigerians who laughed at Ghanaians then, calling them ashawo that are migrating to Ghana to do ashawo work - what a shame!!!


Nigeria can be likened to the biblical case of the prodigal son who wasted his inheritance on frivolous lifestyle and ended up eating food meant for pigs ….. let this be a lesson to all


Lets teach the next generation to take the pains today to create a life they want by working hard and smart Or they will spend the rest of their days on earth dealing with the life they dont want
