Our audacity to rise from our losses makes Nigeria the number one footballing nation in Africa!

Why would you want to bring a foreign coach? Why? If you bring a foreign coach, you might as well bring foreign players, white players to play for Nigeria. If you bring a European coach, he should also bring oyinbo (white) players. That's how it is.

Every game is very difficult, no game is easy. All games are hard, but just different. So we just have to get ourselves prepared for every particular match because of the intensity and so on.

If you lose, it's the coach's fault and if you win, the players are credible, they are indispensable, so whatever happens it's going to be the coach.

It's not going to determine whether I will remain with Nigeria or not. I don't have a contract and I'm not depending on this match to give me a contract. So please don't think I will die in the Nigeria job.

My future does not depend on me but on any decision by the Togo federation.

I remember when Samuel Okwaraji died on the field, I was mute and I didn't even know what I was doing or what I was saying.
