This is good for Onazi. It will put him in shape for his next Super Eagles invitation. Onazi will give Ndidi tough competition.
My namesake you fall my hands which onazi are you talking about?
Ifeanyi Udeze, John Utaka, Chris Obodo and Obina Nwaneri self to come back. Them go give current Eagles competition for shirts.
Onazi time Don pass joh, I advise he goes back to scoan to serve God. He made money already, time to quit Onazi honorably.
I felt like we started camping a bit late, when other teams were playing their first stage game, we suppose to be playing friendlies already against NPFL teams so that the boys can get use to each other on time but any way, we hope for the best… we can’t afford to lose to Ghana
