I am so happy for Osimhen scoring regularly for Napoli, at the same time, he needs to do more, man had more than enough chances to score hattrick yesterday…same thing against Torino, he keeps getting into good positions, he just needs to be more clinical, he is a beast of a player..

The ministry of sports is behind the recent success of our sports, the basketball teams are also doing brilliantly. Kudos to Hon Dare i keep saying it that competency is the secret to brilliant organization. Now lets get grade A friendlies so that we can tell ourselves the real truth.
Na only to make sure we take them to good playing surfaces when we play our home games remain (we obviously do not have control over which stadium/surface we play our away games). As far as i am concerned, that Uyo pitch and facilities still remain our best at the moment. I know these decisions at times gat to do with may be the state govt being able to bank-roll the game or something but c’mon these glorious group of lads we’ve got deserve to play and enjoy their international football on good pitches when we play at home
