Actually fufu don become colloquial term.
Many diasporans refer to eba as cassava fufu, pounding as yam fufu etc.

Yes, I think was trying too hard to make an immediate impact. First time jitters, I would say. Hopefully, he will recover soon to feature in the Scotland friendly because I like his commitment. That's the kinda players we need in the green and white.

This boy is good. I hope to see him again in the Nigerian Uniform. He played well in his first game and given time he will be reliable.

'Half hearted' not because of your DNA, but because your heart is only half with Naija. You only ever give half the Nigerian story. You readily tell the negative truths, but never the positive truths. Do an audit of your own posts.
So calling you 'half-hearted' is being charitable.
I could always call you The Reluctant Nigerian. :idea:

NFF Visit Shocks Leon Balogun
: Mar 29, 2014


After he dropped his crutches in the course of the week, Fortuna Dusseldurf and Super Eagles defender, Leon Balogun got the shock of his life when the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), through its Technical Committee Chairman, Barr. Chris Green paid him a surprise visit last Thursday in Germany.

Balogun who has been celebrating the support he has received from the federation and its coaching crew said he could not believe his eyes when he saw Green in Dusseldurf just to check on him. “This is a pleasant surprise, and I can’t believe that the federation will go the whole hug to support me. I can assure you sir that your visit will hasten my recovery process and help me thank Nigerians for all the support they have shown to me,” he declared.

The defender then went on heap praises on the President of the NFF, Alhaji Aminu Maigari for his leadership qualities, declaring that the affection, care and support of the federation has offered has reached a level that he has to reciprocate by getting himself physically and mentally fit for the Brazil 2014 World Cup if he is picked by the coaching crew.

The NFF, through Barr. Green assured that it will keep a close tab on the player, to ensure that he is not only fit but ready for the challenge of the Brazil 2014 World Cup.

“We want the best for the country and you have proven through your commitment after just a game that you are the type of player that we need for the Nigerian football to become a global brand.”

I guess LB has guaranteed himself a spot on the list... Singing the praises of the NFF to high heavens means he now has a godfather. And we all know how this things work.

Ohk that makes sense...because in the part of Nigeria that I come from, Fufu is a minority food. In fact I will say we eat more rice than fufu. And the same holds true for many other parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. And I never even saw anybody prepare fufu once. The only time I saw fufu, was when it was wrapped in leaves and somebody had bought it from somewhere.
