Bros,
Abdu Makaiba is one of the best coaches in Nigeria. The guy was a physics instructor who decided to get coaching certificates. Beyond that background he has done well everywhere that he has been -- Enyimba, Wikki Tourists, and currently Akwa United where he eventually won his first trophy (The Federation Cup). His teams are usually described as focusing on ball possession with speed and they are always one of the best teams to watch, reportedly.

...I hope he can carry and express himself in a way that would reflect positively on his training. That said, no explanation was provided in the report as to why Finidi, more than qualified in his own rights and who offered to do it for free, has been sidelined.

Make we give Coach Maikaba chance o
Re: New U17 coach appointed.
At this level I would pick someone with a good eye for talent over a great tactician. We have nothing to prove at U17 so discovering future SEs should be the main objective if this coach. May God help him.
Re: New U17 coach appointed.
I watched his interview on channels. Sounds like a good coach. Wish him the best.

Maikaba sets agenda for Eaglets
https://www.supersport.com/football/nig ... or_Eaglets
13 November 2017, 15:24
Coach Abdul Maikaba has come out to say he did not apply for the coaching job of Nigeria’s cadet team, Golden Eaglets.
The Akwa United coach was confirmed as the head coach of Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets at the weekend by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Technical and Development Committee.
The former Wikki Tourists gaffe will be assisted by the Niger Tornadoes technical adviser, Abubakar Bala, Oluwafunsho Bunmi and Baruwa Abideen as goalkeeper trainer.
Maikaba said he actually applied for the U20 coaching job but will be ever ready to serve the nation at whatever capacity.
“Frankly, I expected the coaching job but never expected to be named as under-17 head coach, I actually applied for the under-20 coaching job.
“However, I can willingly serve my country in whatever capacity she deems me fit.
“Of course, yes, I’m a happy man being assigned the responsibility to handle the under-17 national team.
“I will try my very best to do a perfect work as well as meet the aspirations and expectations of Nigerians.
“Akwa United job will not hamper my work at the national level because I do not work alone, rather as a team in Akwa United.
“I have assistants who understand the innermost part of the working at Akwa United and I can comfortably delegate power and rest assured the work will come out perfectly well.
“If it was to be a case of new persons that would have been a problem, but I work with familiar and trusted men so the continuity will be there.
“So there is absolutely no problem combining both jobs,” said the former Enyimba coach to supersport.com.
Maikaba said his immediate priority is to raise quality players within the age bracket who will go ahead to make the nation proud in future competitions.
“Firstly, my target is to produce players within the age limit who can grow up to play for the other national teams.
“I will strive to qualify Nigeria for the Africa Under-17 Cup of Nations and go ahead to qualify for the Fifa World Cup.
“If we go ahead to win the Nations and World Cup titles that would be added privilege.
“The main target remains to produce quality talents that will progress to play for the senior national team,” said Maikaba.
Nigeria were absent at the just-concluded 2017 Fifa Under-17 men’s World Cup in India won by England.

Re: New U17 coach appointed.
lool. have you noticed that only in football that Nigerians don't complain about marginalization, tribalism, etc? No one cares where the XI comes from as long as they are winning. The question is why can't we carry the same mentality to other spheres of our lives?Cito wrote:oloye wrote: Somehow somehow what was billed to be an exciting aboki bashing session came to a limpy end!

Re: New U17 coach appointed.
if there is really such thing as aboki prejudice in Football then it must exist in all spheres of Nigeria and why is that.
make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable.

True, there's something wrong with that picture. Wikki Tourist to U17. His former players could be looking to join him.EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA wrote:Only in Nigeria will a coach go from professional league coach to u17 coach. He has hammered.

Re: New U17 coach appointed.
Bash who? I was genuinely curious about who the guy was because everything i have read so far pointed to Finidi being the next U17 coach. I thought the guy was just some unqualified random guy the NFF hired.oloye wrote: Somehow somehow what was billed to be an exciting aboki bashing session came to a limpy end!
