After 19 years of waiting, the Super Eagles of Nigeria won the African Cup of Nations for the 3rd time. Winning the trophy for the third time is not the issue here; the issue is the manner in which they won it. Prior to the tournament, the team, a young team indeed, being tinkered together by Stephen Keshi was not given any chance of landing the trophy.

Now, Keshi was widely criticized for his selection tactics. He was crucified for selecting some home boys. Some of us sentenced him to death when he left out some pseudo star players like Odewingie, Obafemi Martins and Taye Taiwo. But the Big Boss stood his ground. Even the NFF that hired him to do a job were restless as they queried his every decision. Alas, the young man qualified for the Nations’ cup with his choice players.
