Oh no not $5,000. This amount likely brought Nigeria's economy to it's knees.

Well with the way that Nigerian federations, parastals, ministries, organizations are run...with zero profitablity and business sense....that $5000 could hurt more than you think.

You need to remember that most of the money they earn from competition and sponsors, goes to egunje...so this $5000 will be missed.
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

BTW, did not see any fans rushing onto the pitch after the second goal (perhaps after the final whistle)...

I believe there are undertones to this action. Pinnick and the current CAF chairman don't see eye to eye of course there must be a sections in a divided CAF. A snide swipe at Pinnick and his factions. This happens across Africa all the time without incident. Cheap shot.

Is this what they call auto response. This is so CE-esque ....giving match analysis without watching the match, or in this case responding without looking at the date of the post.
