Actually mate is an offer nobody will reject and besides he has know right to decide on what mood they're supposed to sign him, is not like I'm happy with the interim coach they offer him but based on how this things works he will not complain about it since they would also pay him a lot of money for his services, however is already obvious that the NFF is only going to be using him on this specific role because this is not Eguavoen Austin first time as an interim coach in our national team but if he doesn't want it they will look for another temporary coach since they don't have much concern about the performance growth of the team.

It is too bad that the bunch of embezllers in the NFF are just after there personal benefit not the growth or development of the Nigeria national football, why interim coach giving him such offer? we know Eguavoen will be paid for the role, if he accepts the offer which we know that he will, but what happens if he's been appointed as substantive coach of the team as @Agbe pointed at or is is it that he just good at rebuilding and being replaced after? The NFF are just playing games with important issues, this is not about the mater of,  if Eguavoen will accept the offer before him or not, are they trying to make us believe that the guy is not good to be the head coach.

I don't know if NFF is feeling that he is incompetent to be made a head of coach or other reason best known to them but however what I would say is that as someone whom they have offered the same position several times and he has never lead the team into underperforming they should have giving him a season as a benefit of doubt so that they would see how effective he might be with the handling of the team so that everybody would know if is okay with him being the head of coach, But since they have never wanted him on that position because of their corrupt way there is know need to decline any offer because is still a privilege to be an interim coach.

The Nigeria football federation is not own by Augustine Eguavoen's family for him to decide the type of offer the Nigeria football federation should offer him, if Augustine Eguavoen is not happy with the interim coach offered to him by the Nigeria football federation he should reject it quietly because there could be a reason for the Nigeria football federation to give him such contract, and i think i like what the Nigeria football federation did and i want them to appoint the next super eagles coach as interim coach, if the coach performs well as interim coach then they can give him permanent contract.

Guys let’s free Martins please.
He has a choice to choose who to support and how to go about it. That doesn’t make him a terrible person compared to Obi.
It also certainly does mean he is an asslicker too.
One thing we should know is that every person has their own personality type- while some are outspoken like Obi, some others are not and this has nothing to do with them being ass lickers or being cowards. It’s just who they are.

Bro, he is an asslicker or an attention seeker. Can you tell us the connections between Seyi and Nigerian football? What have been his contributions to the development of the game? What is his experience for Martins to recommend him for a serious job like the NFF chairman? It's like recommending Dangote for the Super Eagles coaching job. Oh, maybe he would learn how to administer Nigerian football on the job. Nigerians are not stupid; we know an attention seeker when we see one.

We have long advocated for the Nigerian sports sector to be managed by former internationals. In fact, the sports minister should have vast experience in sports. Assigning these sports positions to politicians is hampering its development.

The rundown on patriotism for the country has really eaten deep into every Nigerian that almost everyone is just after what could favour them at the end than how it's going to develop and put pride on the country's flag. As an ex international who have gone outside the shores of the country and had experiences abroad with how other countries football governing body and association are being managed, supervised and overseen by people with football knowledge and experience. The character of positioning people in places where they are not fit just for political reasons is one of the problems why the development in Nigeria football is in a flipflop condition.

This is actually the 4th time the NFF has appointed Eguavoen Austin as Nigeria's interim national football coach. This will make it the 5th time, to say.

The funniest thing about all these interim appointments is that they sack him within a few months and bring in someone else as head coach.

However, this appointment is nothing new to Nigerians about Austin, and his replacement with someone else won't be something new either.

U20 Women World Cup

Spain vs Nigeria

This match is going on now and I believed people are not aware of the match because there is no Nigeria Broadcasting station shows the match. They have finished the first half and on break now. Spain has scored a goal and the goal was scored by Marisa. Nigerians are not impressive in the match and if they continue like this more goals will come in.

It's 80 minutes already, and Spain has just scored another goal, making it 2 goals to nil against Nigeria in this U20 Women game that is currently ongoing live, and with the look of the game, its obvious that the Spain women will be winning this game without us scoring even at least a single goal. Because after Marisa scored the first goal at the very early start of the match at 13minutes, Alba Cerrato was able to score the second goal at 73 minutes. And this seems to be our first game in this U20 Women's World Cup tournament and we just lost the first game, and the tendency of we winning against China U20 Women is also high, but i hope our ladies try their best in that game, since we have just lost this one.

And the tendency which you said was high was literally zero, because our Nigerian U20 Women team just finished playing againts China and the match ended goal-less, as no team was able to score a single goal all through the entirr 90 minutes of the game. Whereas Spain who won us in our previous match also won their today's game against New Caledonia U20 Women with a whooping 11 goals to nil. As it seems in this entire U20 Womens world cup that is currently ongoing, Spain seems to have the strongest football team. Whereas we Nigerian just lost one and drew todays game too.

Why is this man still in the leadership of the NFF? He is supposed to have retired from the NFF by now because he has held so many positions. This is why the NFF will always struggle in their leadership; some groups of people have been running the organization for a long time, making decisions that favor themselves. Augustine has led the Super Eagles as coach, I think more than once if I am not mistaken, and I just found out he is still in the NFF at this time.

I will even blame Austin Eguavoen for accepting such offer, at his age and level of experience, he should know when to stop some certain nonsense that they usually bring to his table, he should be able to look at the NFF and say no I won't accept this offer no matter how enticing it is because giving him big money is one way they usually do to buy them off. This is really embarrassing, especially when I remember the current Super Eagle's coach is someone that they used to replace Eguavoen who is more experience and has better understanding of what Nigeria wants.

[SatoPrincess]

If I were him, I wouldn't accept this offer because the NFF has seeing him as an alternative coach for any emergency. Why can't they offer him full time coaching job. Okay after now they will bring another person to replace him again. Though he will do well to revive the Super Falcons. The football section in all ramifications is suffering. From the Super Eagles to Golden Eagles and to the Falconets.

Actually mate is an offer nobody will reject and besides he has know right to decide on what mood they're supposed to sign him, is not like I'm happy with the interim coach they offer him but based on how this things works he will not complain about it since they would also pay him a lot of money for his services, however is already obvious that the NFF is only going to be using him on this specific role because this is not Eguavoen Austin first time as an interim coach in our national team but if he doesn't want it they will look for another temporary coach since they don't have much concern about the performance growth of the team.

At this point, I think Eguavoen needs to step up and say NO to the NFF. It doesn’t look good on his resume that his experience as head coach of the Super Eagles has only been a temporary role despite giving it his best.

The economy in Nigeria is bad atm so I understand why he would accept the role for the money, but it pains me that the NFF would pass on Eguavoen just to hire a foreign manager.

Some persons were saying we should leave Obafemi Martins, that he was airing his opinion, but some of us already saw from the opaque system he was presenting in that Mikel Obi popcast, it was obvious he had something he was directly benefiting from the system for him to have recommended the Son of the President Seyi Tinubu who has no sports experience to head the NFF. Now look at the News today, he is hosting a football tournament for the reelection of the President across the six geopolitical zones.

One thing I know about the majority of Nigerians is that we are very sensible, we don't criticize when it's not necessary, so we still have people that can shamefully organize a football competition for the reelection of the worst president Nigeria has ever had, a president that has taken poverty to another level in Nigeria, Martins should hide his face in shame, although most of sense this, that Martins was up to something when he made those statements, and here it is, too bad that people like martins played in different football clubs in Europe but has nothing to tell us than this.

Who does dirty politics better than an African man? Before coming out to publicly display affection for a government that is ruining the future of the youths, you should have figured out that he is benefiting from the motion. How many of the players who will participate in the tournament will have the opportunity to be signed and sponsored to a club outside the country? Trust me, Nigerians are sometimes hard to believe when i see how easily they can be manipulated, that is why they keep using cheap strategies to convince us into believing their political ambitions are of public interest.

Seyi is in no way fit to serve as NFF president or any position in the federation, that will be the wrong call if he is given the position.

[Mayor of ogba]

We all know that Martins is already out of film and trying to seek public attention with the vice president's son's interest upon himself for such endorsement, and we shouldn't be surprised saying that this may eventually come to be if Sheyi Tinubu truly has interest in it, all that is needed is for them to bribe other NFF officials to get their support and emerge to the position, anything is possible as long as you wish to achieve it except this is just a public enticement that they are using to catch Cruise when they don't really mean it, as we see it.

As far as Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, if Seyi wants to become the next NFF president he doesn't even need to bribe anyone before he can achieve that his father will just make one or two calls and Seyi will be announce as the president of NFF and heaven won't fall. Seyi won't make a fine NFF president because he lack the experience to run the affairs of Nigeria football so he should focus in campaigning for his father and leave NFF for those that has the experience to handle it.

When did he split that one of his mouth? This is really surprising to me and a shameful thing to say. A presidents son to lead NFF on what ground? Any experience in sport prior to now or because he’s the president’s son he can decide to lead any institution he wishes? Maybe just as you’ve said, he was only looking for some favour from him and he’s trying to find his way into this current administration to also get his own share. This is very disappointing, upon all his experience in football, he can’t think of a better person to lead the NFF, it is Seyi who can do it. Even himself will be a better person for that position than who he was suggesting.

However, this appointment is nothing new to Nigerians about Austin, and his replacement with someone else won't be something new either.

The NFF have a special place that fit him and he should already know about that, Austin Eguavoen have hard a good career as previous footballer and in the numbers of time he have been appointed as entrim coach he have leave up to that expectations of him to deliver the team untill a new head coach get appointed at some point,. So he is use to the process already and there is nothing new for him other than to do the job pending to when he will get it hand over to a new head coach.

[Nathrixxx]

I don't know if NFF is feeling that he is incompetent to be made a head of coach or other reason best known to them but however what I would say is that as someone whom they have offered the same position several times and he has never lead the team into underperforming they should have giving him a season as a benefit of doubt

I like this aspect so much and it talks about being able to give a second thoughts and a benefit of doubt, sometimes we see that people fail to deliver us and we don't even know what they might feel in their own personal minds because they couldn't deliver, just because they couldn't also afford to meet up with our own target at a particular period of time, but what if everything does not really have to do well as expected until we give them enough time to discover the best strategy and deliver as we have always wanted, this is why to achieve a result s not that easy.

Yeah indeed his experience is not lower than the current super eagle coach because during all his interim we usually experience a strong squad from the super eagles, but however this kind of decision is best taking if is going to push the NFF to the wall were they would have know option but comply to his request, so now my question is that would the saying No of Eguavoen reset the position they always give him?, actually money is one of the things that encourages him on the career aside from passion, so the benefits he is getting is far from staying at home without it, so is better to manage the position you see and hope for the better in the future.

We really can't control what is happening in the NFF. There are many things left unsaid. If you are not in the environment where all these things are happening, you won't really know what is going on. Looking at the NFF from outside, we may misjudge people who are the good ones. I honestly think the NFF should do better by now.

It's been 8 years since we last saw World Cup football. Many years ago, we won the AFCON. The Super Eagles were known to be one of the best teams in Africa. Look at what is happening because of politics. It should end soon.

What hard work is Obafemi Martins even talking about self? Is it in increasing the price of food in the country that both the poor and middle class can no longer afford good 3 square meals, is that the hard work he is talking about? Because to be honestly speaking, it seems once an individual starts benefiting from this bad government of president Bola Admed Tinubu, they seems to lose their sense of reasoning practically, just the same way I'm seeing with Obafemi Martins. Because I thought the official kickup of the presidential campaign just started few weeks ago, or does it also means all the presidential candidates are free to also organize a football match for themselves in the 6 geopolitical zones of the country.

I don't also know the renew hope agenda on youth tournament that they are working towards, but I know that anything politically motivated will have a better chances of seeing them supporting it, I'm also kind of confused because there are a number of young Talent that are into football but couldn't see any renewed hope opportunities to be identified or discovered.

Let's see how fa this could go and what they have to offer the young Nigerians talents in football career.
