I don’t think Keshi is telling us the truth about this boys, their attitude towards serving Nigeria shows no determination and commitments. They look tired and helpless at second half of all the matches including tech crew as we are watching. As young vibrants stars we expected them to run with those tired and old ages players of France and Argentina. Also they threaten not play without been paid money apart from bonuses, delicious food, conducive transport, first class accmodation etc. none of them experience those facilities from their families as they all came from poor background, every Nigerians knew, but mess up with financial issue at last. Money is not everything only sincerity of purpose can make someone achieve beyond his imaginations, let’s see how long will 20million will stay with them now that makes them to forget what the country has done to them. Only few will stay and make Nigeria proud.
