Former Nigerian international Sunday Oliseh has expressed disappointment to see Bayern Munich star Michael Olise represent France instead of the Super Eagles at the international level.
Olise, who was born in England to a Nigerian father and an Algerian-French mother, was eligible to play for Nigeria, Algeria, England, or France.

On his Global Football Insights Podcast, ahead of Bayern’s UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against Real Madrid, Oliseh praised the former Crystal Palace star’s talent but voiced frustration.
“When I see Olise play, he gets me so angry. I’m just saying this guy should not be wearing the French national team jersey; he should be wearing the green-white-green of Nigeria.
“This is why our people are funny. Some even sent messages asking why I sabotaged us—your son went to play for France. He’s not my son, and his own Olise does not even have an ‘h’ at the end of it.”

Which Olise should come and play for Nigeria? So that NFF Onigbese can owe his destiny?
Dem go owe am sotey, e go forget em mama name.
They won’t even invite him if e no bring brown envelope.
Bible talk say a gold ring does not belong in the nose of a pig. Until we get rid of these nitwits in the Glass House and replace them with proper, forward thinking, proactive not reactive officials, then players like Olise do not belong in our Whatsapp group.
