Its well with you Osigwe. When Jehovah GOD wills it, nothing can stop it. Jehovah Rapha is our HEALER.
Chai, our enemies will not succeed ooo!
Speedy recovery, my young man. Maduka Okoye, Seba Osigwe and Uzoho, if these 3 are fit and in form, I personally am ok with our goalkeeping department. Even if Rohr’s selection criterium is tumbo tumbo baskelebe, I am confident that any of them that is selected will do a nice job on the day. I want this for every department of the squad. The guys on the bench should be just as good as the starters. If we can achieve this, then anything is possible.
This is his first international debut, I hope this isn’t a conspiracy theory to keep him away from been capped by the SE team?
All the same, get well and take your place in the SE
