"Nigeria is always blessed with talent. When we talk about going forward, I see that as our strength because we always have players that can take on opponents one-on-one with individual brilliance and getting a goal out of nothing."

"It feels good to see that they want everybody to be a part of the football show by bringing it to their homes. The reduced tariffs would afford their customers to enjoy and be a part of history, and I believe the current squad of the Super Eagles would excel in Russia."

"It’s been a long way. It was a big one, I just think it is destiny – because its unusual. I didn’t play in the Nigerian league, which is one of the ways very few people had the opportunity to play internationally. I went to Belgium in 1998 and left for the Olympic Marsielle in 2001 and 2002 I got into the British league."
