nairalanda1: I am surprised too. I think he has given up on this section because the Insurance FA cup win thread was also started by someone else and he never posted there once. Anyway back to Mazi Ernest Okonkwo, a nickname giving legend. Incredible descriptive abilities and did some incredible homework on his players. |

He was a legend truly. Ernest brought fun and laughter to his commentries. He had a way of igniting your emotions and imagination. It was fun listening to him as a young lad. 2 Likes |

The players you mentioned are not complete. How about John Chiedozie and Tunji Banjo? They were the only 2 foreign players we had. |

Yes indeed,Igbos are always the best at what they do but the late Akinloye Oyebanji, though Yoruba, was a Star. I still remember his commentaries during Atlanta '96! Modele was impeccable as well. Paul Ogazi did excellently well too. They were clear and audible and didn't rush their commentries. Private news media sportscasters don dabaru everything. D way they dey rush sports news and commentaries dey vex me no be small. Padipadi: |

Great post about a great football commentator of my youth. Was looking forward to that commentary that has words like; 'Tell it not to the people. Say it not in the streets of Lagos, but Nigeria is....goals down ' The guy was so good with words. May his soul continue to rest in peace. 1 Like |
