“The first key to handling problem is
to get the right mindset, mindset is key, for in life every problem is
solvable”- WRIGHT BROTHERS
This iconic
and most classical quote perhaps best paints the vivid picture of the pathetic
state of affairs of the current Nigeria football Federations, which for two
successive occasions have failed to qualify for the CAF Nations cup
Only recently
after series of research, the NFF finally opted for a new foreign technical in
person of Gerpot Rohr. When It was first
mentioned to the world that he (Rohr) will now take charge of the once giant
Super Eagles, many were held in awe as per the coach’s pedigree, many saw in
Rohr as not a world class coach, lacking in charisma to take Nigeria to the
once top ten FIFA ranking we once enjoyed-but had no guts to say it loud
But not so
for veteran football /sports administrator and football elder statesman, DR
Amos Adamu, the man who historically guided Nigeria to qualify for her first
ever world Cup, in 1994, AND who was the arrow head behind Nigeria’s successful
hosting of the 2002 ALL AFRICAN GAMES, in Abuja has come out like a bold lion
to voice out what many Nigerians have failed to speak out about
In his frank
view, fearless Dr Adamu divulged that the new Franco-German Coach Mr. Rohr is
not world class tactician and rather than move Nigeria forward will only
succeed in damaging the already fallen standard of the game here
Hear him “He
(Rohr) does not have the pedigree, I don’t know him, neither have I ever heard
of his name, for now, we do not have a coach, Rohr will just damage us, and at
the end of the day just leave us like that”
·
Now
the big question, what was the basic criteria used in choosing a coach of Rohr
caliber to lead a once giant like the super Eagles? What is the yardstick used
to fix his salary at such high proportion? More question for the Amaju Pinick
led NFF than meets the eye……..perhaps only time will tell, if the foreign
technical adviser can lead Nigeria to the promised land or not
