'You Failed As Delta FA Chairman' - Nigerians Blast JJ Okocha For NPFL Comments by tundetech5: 3:17pm On Sep 03, 2023
Okocha played in the Nigerian League with Enugu Rangers in 1990.

Nigerians have blasted former Super Eagles captain Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha over his comments on the Nigerian League.

The African star revealed on Friday in Nairobi, Kenya during English Premier League Trophy Tour that he would rather watch European football than a live Nigerian football league.

Okocha played in the Nigerian League with Enugu Rangers in 1990.

Okocha's statement
The former PSG and Bolton Wanderers’ midfielder added that Nigeria need to upgrade its organization standard to attract quality talents and more sponsors for the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) and other Leagues in the country.

Nigerians blasts Okocha
NPFL expert, Tobi Adepoju revealed how the 1994 African Cup of Nations AFCON winner was forced to resign as Delta State FA chairman after he was impeached.

Tobi Adepoju on his Twitter (X) said, "Okocha was supported by Amaju Pinnick & he was elected as Delta State Football Association Chairman which automatically made him a Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Congress Member.

"He ruined Delta State FA & he was judged to be the most incompetent Delta FA Boss in history. He was forced to resign before the Delta FA Congress impeached him, they were pissed and disappointed.

"When football fans call for Ex-Players to lead football administration in the country, I laugh at it. Let's leave them to honour invitations from politicians and play novelty matches."

Abidoun Ibrahim added, "Someone that should be an ambassador for the league is saying this. To say he was once the FA chairman in Delta state. So sad."

Meanwhile, the NPFL will kick off on Saturday 9th with Shooting Stars hosting Plateau United at the Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan.
