I don't have any pity for an afonja

ebube89:
when ppl complain of this, i wonder what civil servants who served this country for 35yrs will complain about. The truth is the country paid most of this footballers their dues earlier in life

beejayphako:
This baba is still putting on Green
Nigeria is not worth risking all for, I swear
Even though this people might have been reckless or careless with what they made in there hay days, atleast, it shouldnt have been incessant. That shows the country isnt worth giving one's all . So pathetic

toffyz:
Football wasn't so lucrative then in their days, I'm sure this guys would've been better off now...In regards to that, the sport ministry should been given this guys token every month for up keeping..I mean those that belong to that category.

sod09:
I don't just understand always trying to blame the government for everything.
I'm sure the man has children, the footballers I know are always successful at least until they squander there savings.
Every one think the government owe them even the celebrities, it's just pathetic

sped1oro:
So emotional to see this great sport patriot suffers and so unfortunate to see comments from some ignoramus saying the man should have saved for old age and asking was he not paid entitlement when he played for Nigeria.
I know some stories about this great man because we once lived under the same roof in Baruwa Ipaja town. He was a mentor to a lot of us who later became good footballers in our own way, every weekend, he usually took me and host of friends to the National Stadium for training and it was all for Free and for the love of the country. He also had a brother Austin Fregene, who also played for Nigeria but the guy is late. Peter Fregene was not really paid as much as other players that showed up in the early eighties, I knew quite well that he was always going to the sport ministry to pursue one payment or the other. He was also Coach Manager Of NEPA in Lagos and also in Warri. He mentored the likes of Peter Rufai and Okala and host of other Nigerian goalkeepers.
I have visited him in Ibadan at a specialist hospital couple of years back when his predicament started with severe back pains,his children are really trying their best but the government needs not forget our heroes past for their selfless service to the country. Peter Fregene is an Urhobo man from Delta state.

Stop commenting rubbish about him just for the sake of nairaland attention.

OgogoroFreak:
Hahahahaha... Old man! See as he come be.

gabbasin:
What I remember about Peter Fregene is the 1986 Afcon in Libya when he parried an harmless corner kick into his own net in a match Nigeria lost to Zambia 3 nil.
Wishing him a speedy recovery though.

Nigeria did not qualify for that tournament! Where did you get this from?

I dont mean to sound mean but when he was balling, how well did he handle funds cos most of these footballers and celebrities, it is not that they didn't see money, but their extravagant lives or fake lives they couldn't sustain pushed them to be wasteful without thinking of their old age. Making hay while the sun shines isn't just for shining when you can but still shining even when its not.
Moreover, this man I'm sure didnt make much during his time. They all wanted to play for the love of the country, that was how it was during their time I learnt

Any small sickness, they call on Nigerians when even Nigerians need all the help they can get
