    NFF Vows To Support Ex-Eagles Coach Chukwu

    AdonisBy AdonisApril 7, 20195 Comments2 Mins Read

    The Nigeria Football Federation President Amaju Melvin Pinnick has mandated the Chairman of Enugu State Football Association and Member of the NFF Executive Committee, Hon. Chidi Ofo Okenwa to pay
    former Nigeria captain and coach Christian Chukwu a visit and get the details of his challenges and what needs to be done to return him to good health.

    Chukwu, is very sick and in dire need of support to enable him to get medical attention overseas, according to the Grand Patron of ex-Enugu Rangers Players Association, Benson Ejindu.

    “I am not in Nigeria presently but I have asked the NFF Acting President, Barr. Seyi Akinwunmi to take full charge and ensure that this matter is treated promptly,” Pinnick told thenff.com.

    “It was for this kind of development that I spoke about the welfare foundation for our legends at the 2nd AITEO-NFF Awards in Lagos on 1st April 2019. The NFF would always be there to lend support to our
    legends in their hour of need.”

    Ejindu disclosed that Chukwu needs the sum of $50,000 for his round trip to the United States of America, surgery, medication and general after-surgery care.

    Christian Chukwu captained the senior national team of Nigeria as they won their first –ever Africa Cup of Nations title in 1980, receiving the brand new Unity Cup from then President Shehu Shagari. He also
    captained the Enugu Rangers FC team that won the Africa Cup Winners’ Cup in 1977.

    Nicknamed ‘Chairman’ for the authority he exuded as he marshalled the defence and launched onslaughts on the opposition defence for club and country, Chukwu also served as assistant coach of the first
    team to win a FIFA World Cup trophy for Nigeria – the Golden Eaglets that triumphed at the FIFA U16 World Cup in China in 1985.

    He was also assistant coach of the team widely known as the Golden Generation – the 1994 Class of Super Eagles that qualified Nigeria for her first FIFA World Cup finals, won the Africa Cup of Nations title
    and reached the Round of 16 at the FIFA World Cup in America.

    Between 2002 and 2005, Chukwu was head coach of the Super Eagles, leading the team to win bronze medal at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations in Tunisia.

      So, Christian Chukwu is this sick and no one heard about his predicament up till now? Dear Chukwu, by the Power of the Almighty Creator, you shall overcome this ailment and bounce back in record time to abundant good health again, in Jesus name, Amen.

      This is great news. And is it a coincidence that these positives are happening shortly after CSN articles on the subject? Kudos to CSN for shining the light on a shameful problem.

      I pray for quick recovery for you Chairman Sir…!
      I hope this isnt mere lip service from the FA. Chairman Chukwu deserves much more support from the FA and the government at large. Enugu Rangers FC and Enugu State government too shouldn’t wait to be outdone by the NFF. CCC needs us all the most now.

      Living legend like CCC should be held in highest esteem forever it will be a shame to the federation and government at large if we lose another legend to ailment like we lost Yekini, Keshi and Amodu Shuaibu in shameful circumstances let the Federation be held responsible if anything happens to chairman and I hope nothing happens Insha Allah Chairman will get well again.
