The 53-year-old, who managed Greek lower tier club APS Zakynthos last season, has signed an undisclosed deal with the club owned by compatriot Emmanuel Oloja Akpakwu.
A former Nigeria defender and a member of the golden generation, he played for his country at the 1988 and 1992 Africa Cup of Nations, and when they won the tournament in 1994.
He also represented his country at the 1994 World Cup in the United states.

You want a technical director, of a backwater league club in Slovenia, who are playing in D2 to come coach the SE?
I think you have lost the right to make comments or suggestions about the SE. We should restrict you to making comments for the U17 falcons (AFCON qualifers only).
