OTD, in 1989, we lost our effervescent midfielder Samuel Okwaraji who slumped and died on the pitch while serving his fatherland. https://twitter.com/thenff/status/1690326226756313088?t=bdieHoAnaCCsXMswp2VJig&s=19 44 Likes 5 Shares

The legend about this footballer has helped write his name in history. When we were kids, we were told great tales of how he helped rescue Nigeria by scoring a winning goal. I can't vividly remember but legend described of how the football turned into a stone, others said lion head or head of palm tree. 40 Likes 2 Shares |

Before that game against Angola, Okwaraji scored the lone goal for Nigeria in her 99 - 1 demolition by India. I remember the match vividly, although I was still a teenager at the time. We experienced some unconventional and surreal football tactics from the Indians. I am writing a book on this and it would be available on Kindle, very soon. Rest on well, Samuel "The Crocodile" Okwaraji 2 Likes |

That's the only thing they are good at living in the past no future progress. Just like Siofra and Jennyclay wallowing in the past in the guise of slaying,whereas they are over 40. |
