Good one Coach Equavoen for excusing Nwabali to go and give his father the last respect!!!
Something that arrogant senseless coach called Oliseh could not do when Vincent Enyeama lost his father.
This is the chance he will have used to test, Desseers , Akorodare, Akpom or Maja. Egu is not proactive. We are not expectating anything new from Sadiq, Bonice because they remain what they are in SE colours
