He pointed out that the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF knows the task at hand and how important it is to navigate the hurdle posed by our opponents in the World Cup qualifiers which resume in March thereby appealing to all soccer fans, stakeholders, and lovers of sports to give the new man a chance to convince and proves us wrong as the best fit for the job.
“It is high time we come together to support the coach Eric Chelle to succeed in the job. It’s quite understandable that not everyone will support the choice of the former Malian coach likewise not everybody will oppose it but we should see it positively”.
“He cannot do it alone without our support and constructive criticism. He needs us to succeed and we should welcome him with great hospitality”.
Prince Vincent Okumagba who doubles as the Vice President of the African Football Supporters Association congratulates the NFF hierarchy led by Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau on the appointment of Eric Sekou Chelle and urges the football authority to keep striving.
