The President of Association of Nigeria footballer (APFON) Dahiru Sadi has criticised Stephen Keshi's 23-man world cup list.
Dahiru Sadi questioned Keshi's choice of players from a particular
player agency owned by a close ally of the Super Eagles coach.
"When I saw the list I was shocked as to how biased Keshi is, imagine
all players from GBS player agency owned by his business partner Tony
Harris were picked, Rueben Gabriel, Uchebo and Nwafor and Nosa Igiebor
was dropped, unbelievable," He told SL10.
When reminded that Nwofor has a good strike rate in the Eagles scoring
three times in five games, the former Eckerlor of Belgium forward
responded with a reminder of Bartholomew Ogbechi in 2002.
" To me if Nwofor is as good as most people judge him with his strike
rate why is he not a starter at Hereenveen? how comes he last played for
them in November 2013?l ook he reminds me so much of Ogbeche in 2002
who took the pre world cup friendly by storm only to get missing at the
World cup"
Dahiru Sadi also was unhappy with Keshi over the inclusion of Babatunde Michael at the expense of Ejike Uzoenyi.
"I gathered Chigozie Agbim and Rueben Gabriel were favoured by Keshi
because he started the world cup qualifiers with them as integral
members of his team, if so be it, Uzoenyi also deserve to be in the
team"
"It's a shame that the MVP at CHAN was dropped for a bench warmer for a
modest team in Ukraine, Babatunde Michael's inclusion is the height of
Keshi's bias in his 23-man World cup list."
