he talked with my uncle on phone to kick off his hotel project, a day before his death, only to hear that he died at the gym.

Such a promising life cut short. very painful.

The writer is Silly. How can you say he was not fufilled as a player who scored 80 goals in about 400 matches. Can Mikel boast of half of these number of goals?

Grace and favour makes the difference in life. He has played his path. Some are more talented than he is but can't even get into Kano Pillars.

I'll never forget his exploits at the under 20 World Cup and the Olympics. He post in both finals to Messi's Argentina. Nigeria football used to have so much promise but immediately the players grow into the super eagles, something just seem to steal the light from them. I guess if Siasia had taken up the job of the super eagles quite early after winning the silver at the Olympics, Isaac would have had a better chance... Too bad all these are past now. Too bad he had to die at a young age. May God grant him a peaceful sleep.






Thank you Promise, for the memories

I vividly remember him at the WYC 05.
May his soul rest in peace
Dude had a lot of energy then, that team was indeed a mix of talent and luck especially with the game against those super fast orange lads like babel, owusu, etc. How time flies...whatever got him.

Its a tragedy honestly, the chap was actually a promising talent to watch back then, even better than mikel I dare say, unfortunately he didnt quite make the limelight post 2005 U20. As for mikel he too was unfortunately converted from a creative midfielder to more of a defensive midfielder hence he cant boast of much goals to his name.

The OP must be a very good writer to have coined such a nice topic. Truthfully, he was really the Promise that was never fulfilled.
May his soul rest in peace

shocked

He lived his time, life, and purpose. You don't judge a man's fulfillment by the number of years lived but by the effectiveness of every of his given opportunity. He played the game, we loved him with the ball, and he left an impression in our hearts. He has lived.

Richdad
You have problem with understanding

OP said that not playing for Super Eagles = not achieving his potentials

It has nothing to do with his age
