Do a good job and please, don't ride under the whims and caprices of the NFF.

Corruption has eaten deep into the fabric of our football federation.

I wish you good luck as you pivot our eagles � to soar higher in all competitions.

They better build and maintain a good,coordinated team and end all this hiring and firing of clueless coaches who end up using the players as lab rats without having any feasible results. We have world-class players they deserve a world-class coach! An Amunike can even handle this disoriented team better. I rest my case!

This guy na my Benin brother o, but NFF goofed by sacking rohr.
1. The compensation paid to rohr, what a waste.
2. Eguavoen have not had so much success in the coaching world, someone that has failed multiple times is who they expect to take a team to success.


Last last NFF na thief, they need people they can manipulate because I don't think rohr was bad, though not top notch but he was above average. The team struggle but get results.

He doesn't have a colorful career, no international recognition.

He has been a stopgap most of his career and that is not a good sign.
