Footballer Emmanuel Emenike who announced his retirement from the Super
Eagles on October 19th, maintained that his decision to resign has
nothing to do with Super Eagles coach, Oliseh
"I have absolutely nothing against the coach (Oliseh). As for me, I
still remain loyal to coach Sunday Oliseh and I want to believe he
understands my decision. My decision has nothing to do with the coach,
who is a brave man, a technically sound person, my decision has nothing
to go against his vision for the Super Eagles. Me out of the team will
equally ease pressure on the coach and it will enable the younger
players to fight harder for the team.
Kindly continue after the cut...
Nigeria have produced lots of talented goal poacher
like Julius Aghahowa, Victor Agali, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, Samuel Okwaraji,
Obafemi Martins, Ike Uche, Rashidi Yekini just to mention a few. I
believe with God on our side, the team will fly higher without Emenike, I
will be glad to see them qualify for both the AFCON and World Cup in
2018. We have lots of good players in the team and more are still coming
in to contribute, so I believe the team will get better and stronger as
time goes on. The team will be great under Oliseh." "he told African
