VISA ISSUES THREATEN SE FRIENDLIES

Post by EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA »

They're reporting that visa issues are keeping Etebo,Musa Mohammed and uche Agbo from taking part.

There is a also a goalkeeper crisis as Ikeme is the goalie in camp. Some hey you named "Tope" who happens to be driving by was drafted to replace Akpekyi and Enzenwa.

If this is true then the nff has really showed it's true colors again. We've known about these games for months. Why are they having visa issues 24hrs to the game?

The above report is inaccurate. I know for a fact that Tope was not "driving by" when he was drafted in. Rather, he is the cab driver who drove Onazi from the airport to the hotel. He was reportedly drafted in after he mentioned to Onazi during the cab ride that "I was the reserve keeper for my class team in primary school"

...if the players in camp are happy as per videos posted why worry about a goalie.
Meanwhile the egghead is being cheered in Lagos for winning election, a new big man in town.

Best for him to take all photos with likes of Iwobi and Iheanacho to show any one whoever questioned the FACT that he was once called up for Nigeria's Super Eagles. Now, this one and Francis Kumbur who takes the cake? How much did his agent pay? :rotf:

Seriously, though, this visa issue simply demonstrates serious administrative blunders within our system. What was the planning like? Who is responsible?

Player, these are the boys from your hood O!

Most of them are scared to put their names on their pictures/profile. Looks like immigration might crack down on an FC Peckham game soon.

Akpeyi should be in camp soon. The media reports said it was a public holiday that set him back by 1 day. Not sure what the story with Ezenwa is.

If the players were individually responsible for procuring their visas, then that is an even worse issue than the current situation.

Besides the fact that he would have represented his country I don't see anything happening for him in regards to SE. If he does well he might move to Brixton lions though.

Awaziem is a professional footballer who plays regularly in the Portuguese 2nd division for a well respected club. We are happy for Tope Okeowo but no need to try to belittle Awaziem
