It is distraughtful that almost everything we do in Nigeria revolves around money. We have sacrificed almost everything good at the altar of money. When the Super Eagles are at a crucial stage, where a loss means exit from the World Cup, rather than focus on how to defeat France and move on to the Quarter final for the first time, our Eagles are boycotting training and asking for their share of the $8m from FIFA for qualifying for the second round. Whether it is justified or not is not my focus, it is the fact that the crucial match is of less importance than the money that beats me.
Also, why do we keep having this issue? Why can’t our players have confidence and trust in our football administrators?
