He did but did have plenty playing time... remember the game against Kenya abi Guine self where he laid a sweet Pass for Wilson Oruma first Super Eagles goal in Lagos. That was in a World Cup qualifier prio to France 1998. I think I am correct.Shownoja wrote:But was he actually ever a full Nigerian International. I dont recall him ever playing for the senior team. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I don't ever recall him playing against Guinea (or scoring). In fact, for a long time Chris routinely rejected call-ups to the national team. In retrospective, maybe a respectable number of caps would have helped his resume.
Thank you Gotti,
The sins of Ohenhen have finally caught up with him.

I thought his injury was at a SE call up and he was let down because the NFA Officials did not cover him insurance wise, hence his refusal to show up again. I am not too sure of this one, so I stand corrected.Gotti wrote:NFA:chief nfachairman wrote:he did play a game for nigeria against Guinea and scored

They should let him take a few free kicks! If he is still any good at them they will sign him straight away!
