Thursday’s dismal performance of the Super Eagles against Lesotho under the watch of coach Jose Paseiro is a clear indication that Nigeria would be bundled out of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations and may not qualify for 2026 World Cup if Paseiro is not sacked now.

Jose Paseiro is a baggage inherited from the Immediate past NFF Board.

What is there to emulate or carry over from a Board that failed in all ramifications?

Before the emergence of the Ibrahim Gusau-led NFF Board Paseiro has shown Nigerians through his woeful performances that he has no capacity to tinker a brand like the Super Eagles.

How did Gusau and his Board arrive at the decision to retain Jose Paseiro?

When are we going to wipe out this mental slavery of it must be a European?

What can this Portuguese coach offer the Super Eagles?

Morocco, Senegal and Cameron and others showcased their indigenous coaches at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

What is wrong in engaging coaches like Emmanuel Amuneke, Sunday Oliseh, Finidi George and some of the legions of ex- internationals we have and invest in their training and retraining a fund already provided for through the streams of FIFA funding.

Coach Stephen Keshi of blessed memory has proved that an indigenous coach can win the Africa Nations Cup and even go beyond the second round of the World Cup.

A responsible Football Federation would have built on Keshi’s legacy moving forward.

The hiring of coach Gernot Rohr and Peseiro is a huge setback to Nigeria Football.

 Enough of the emotional trauma, harrowing experience and pains to Nigerians occasioned by the irresponsible leadership of the Nigeria Football Federation.

The Ibrahim Gusau-led NFF must sack Jose Paseiro now, its better to grow with our own indigenous coaches than wasting $70,000 monthly for a coach whose stock in trade is to bring sorrow and pains to Nigerians in every game.

    Peseiro just doesn’t have what it takes. Let the sports minister watch this one chance coach continue making a fool of Nigeria. Maybe it is better that fans organise a boycott protest to force the hand of the NASS and relevant authorities to either make him a coach for secondary schools or let him just hang around till his contract is due. Fans should no more attend Super Eagles matches till he leaves Nigeria. This is a call to action

    This writer is simply an alarmist and sadist. He is obviously writing for some group of persons who hate the super eagles. The performance of Austin Eguavon that made Eagles to be eliminated in the last Nation cup and world cup qualifier against Ghana is still fresh in our memories. How could you have easily forgotten that sad experience? Please leave Peseiro alone. Eagles will qualify for the world cup and will do very well in the AFCON. Enough of this your Early ejaculation. There are no more minnows in Football worldwide. You saw how Ghana struggled to beat Madagascar. Eagles don’t need any distractions now. Eagles will beat Zimbabwe and other nations. Up Super Eagles of Nigeria.
