The former Super Eagles captain while speaking to the FIFA Under-20
World Cup and the FIFA Women’s World Cup complained about the poor
performance of the Flying Eagles and Super Falcons.
He said: “We should first of all accept the fact that we are
struggling at the moment. We need to sacrifice a few years and maybe go
back to the grassroots and start from there. I don’t think we will
benefit from being stubborn about it, claiming that we are still what we
used to be.”
He continued saying, “We are paying the price for failing to invest
in the grassroots. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. We just need
to speak to ourselves and accept that we are no longer the football
powerhouse that we used to be. We should put things in order. It’s all
about getting us involved. Showing interest and showing respect to some
of us. If I may be a bit brutal, I think we are being neglected. As long
as we don’t appreciate what we’ve got, we will keep suffering. Except
we want to go out there and get foreigners. If we want our people, we
should get the right people.”
