Why NFF Should Listen To Primate Ayodele’s Warning On Nigerian Coaches, Stadium (VIDEO)

It is no more news that the Leader Of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Ayodeleis a football lover and has never hidden his passion for the progress of Nigeria’s football.
He makes heavy pronouncements for Nigeria’s football team and always gives them directions on how to win their matches in his capacity as a spiritual leader. He also warns the NFF, coaches and players against making some moves which he always explicitly reveals to avoid losing important matches.

One of such instances was the last African Cup Of Nations (AFCON) in which the super eagles failed to make a significant impact. Primate Ayodele warned the coach, Augustine Eguaveon against fielding some players but he didn’t listen and this led to an untimely crash of the super eagles.
Also, during the world cup qualifier game against Ghana, Primate Ayodele warned the super eagles coach against making use of some players but he never listened and this led to the failure of the super eagles.
The Super Eagles played against Guinea Bissau yesterday and to the shock of many football lovers, the super eagles team lost despite the quality of players that were invited to play the match. Meanwhile, Primate Ayodele had released an instructional video for the NFF yesterday, telling them what they need to do to be successful.
According to the prophet, the Nigeria Football Federation needs to sack the present coaches of the Nigeria football teams and get new hands that can take the country’s football to another level. He made it known that there is no reason the country should not qualify for the world cup and nations cup. Also, he warned them against using the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja because it is not a center of victory for the country. He urged them to check other stadiums in the country.
These were his words:
‘’NFF should sack all our coaches and get new, experienced ones that can move our football to the next level. Nigeria needs to go to the world cup, AFCON, there is no excuse for it. The president of NFF should sack these coaches. Moshood Abiola Stadium is not always a point of victory for super eagles, the NFF should check stadiums in Lagos and parts of the country’’.
Sadly, the prophetic warning of Primate Ayodele was proven later in the evening when the super eagles lost to Guinea Bissau. The coach got it wrong and the stadium didn’t work for the victory of the team.
At this point, the NFF needs to listen to Primate Ayodele who has spiritually invested into the nation’s football. Nigerians are losing hope in the football system already and divine intervention is seriously needed. There has never been a time when Primate Ayodele speaks about the football system or matches that it doesn’t come to pass. For the sake of the football team and pride of Nigerians, it is better for the NFF to listen to the prophet in order to experience a new dawn.

Libya vs Nigeria: Confusion As CAF keeps parties in suspense

Libya vs Nigeria: Confusion As CAF keeps parties in suspense

 

The Confederation of Africa Football is keeping all concerned in suspense after failing to announce its verdict on Wednesday as regards the botched AFCON qualifying Group A fixture scheduled for October 15 at Benina Martyrs Stadium.

 

It appears the football body has yet to arrive at a decision, with BeIN Sports revealing that the Disciplinary Committee entertained explanations from both parties on Wednesday via video conference, with Libya and Nigeria duly represented.

 

CAF had previously decided to cancel the Libya-Nigeria match after the Nigerian national team left Libya in protest at the diversion of its flight to Labraq Airport, where they were locked in for 18 hours with neither food nor water.

 

Nigeria had called on CAF to intervene to rescue them from detention inside Labraq Airport, according to the Nigerian side’s allegations.

CAF President, Patrice Motsepe, said that the incident was under investigation as the rules for receiving visiting teams are being reviewed, stressing that CAF will take strict decisions in this crisis and will not tolerate any deviation.

Adron Homes Champions Sports Sponsorship and Talent Discovery with 7th Edition of Adron Games

Adron Homes Champions Sports Sponsorship and Talent Discovery with 7th Edition of Adron Games

After six successful editions, Adron Homes & Properties continues to play a pivotal role in the development of sports and talent discovery in Nigeria through its annual sporting event, the Adron Games. What began as a corporate wellness initiative has now grown into one of the nation’s premier platforms for identifying and nurturing young talents, while promoting physical fitness and community engagement.

The 2024 edition, themed “Fit to Be the Biggest”, marks the 7th consecutive year of Adron Games, further cementing the company’s commitment to the sponsorship of grassroots sports. With each edition, Adron Homes not only creates a space for corporate teams and individuals to compete but also paves the way for the next generation of athletes to shine on a national stage.

This year’s event, set to take place at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Ibadan from November 29th to 30th, brings even more opportunities for young athletes to showcase their abilities across a wide variety of sporting disciplines, including Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Athletics, Table Tennis, Snooker, Shot Put, Long Jump, E-sports, and Tug of War. With two Nigeria’s Ex International, Daniel Amokachi and Mutiu Adepoju both legendary figures in Nigerian football serving as ambassadors, the games underscore the crucial role of sports in shaping lives and fostering unity.

Daniel Amokachi, while addressing the media at the event’s unveiling, emphasized the need for consistent support from businesses and brands to nurture talent in Nigeria. “Sports in Nigeria need more support from businesses and brands to help discover and nurture young talent. Through initiatives like the Adron Games, we’re able to uncover the next generation of stars while also promoting a healthy lifestyle,” said Amokachi.

In line with Adron Homes’ strategic goals, Emmanuel Oladapo, Director of Sport Adron Homes and the Organising Department, shed light on the innovative developments and strategies being brought to this year’s games. During his speech, Oladapo emphasized the importance of preparation and structure in making this year’s Adron Games the most successful yet.

“We’re focused on ensuring that every aspect of this year’s games is elevated. From athlete development to team preparation, my team and I are introducing new strategies that will provide a more competitive and organized experience for all participants. We want to make sure the games grow bigger each year while also ensuring that they remain an important platform for talent discovery,” Oladapo stated.

He further highlighted a series of pre-event activities leading up to November, which have been designed to ensure that teams are fully prepared for the competition. These preparatory events, which include team training sessions, practice tournaments, and fitness camps, will help refine skills and foster teamwork among the athletes. “We want the teams to have ample opportunity to train, strategize, and perfect their game before the main event in November,” Oladapo explained.

As part of the unveiling, Oladapo also showcased the official team jerseys, which were presented to the respective teams. The jerseys, designed to promote team spirit and a sense of unity, reflect the vibrant and competitive nature of Adron Games. “These jerseys represent more than just clothing; they symbolize the hard work, dedication, and passion that each team will bring to the field. We’re proud to have created a look that inspires pride and excellence,” he added.

By investing in sports sponsorship, Adron Homes not only encourages a culture of fitness and wellness but also contributes to the larger goal of empowering youth and developing Nigeria’s sports industry. The company’s Group Managing Director, Aare Adetola Emmanuelking, has been at the forefront of these efforts, recognizing the transformative power of sports as a tool for positive change.

Mutiu Adepoju, speaking at the media briefing, echoed this sentiment, stressing the unifying power of sports and commending Adron Homes for their ongoing dedication to its promotion. “Sports is not only about fitness but also about unity and creating opportunities for the youth. Adron Homes’ commitment to this cause is invaluable in the continued development of sports in Nigeria,” Adepoju remarked.

As Adron Games 2024 approaches, the spotlight is once again on sports as a catalyst for talent discovery and community development, with Adron Homes & Properties leading the charge.
