The Director General of Nigeria’s National Sports Commission (NSC), Bukola Olopade, Says Former Nigerian International, Sunday Oliseh, must learn to recognize and appreciate The Super Eagles’ efforts in winning a Bronze Medal at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Recall that Oliseh had questioned the celebrations following Nigeria’s 4-2 penalty win over Egypt in the third-place playoff. Oliseh, who won AFCON with Nigeria in 1994, argued that celebrating anything short of the title sends the wrong message.
He also disclosed that Victor Osimhen’s “toxic” behaviour, specifically a round of 16 altercations with Ademola Lookman, fractured team chemistry and ultimately cost Nigeria the title.
