They are so tribally obsessed but always the first to shout tribalism.

Now I feel good self when an Igbo call me a tribalist.

You must be really stupid and ignorant.

A man that has millions of views on YouTube for his glorious skills and talent, and feted worldwide, is who you are asking such rubbish about?

Because he is Nigerian, in your inferior-minded head, he is not a legend, abi?

Worthless thing.

Okocha was good but he was never serious for me,kanu was way more important than okocha in their era and funny enough kanu is hardly recognized,okocha was a joker on the pitch for clubs and country and he was never able to match his skills,he is supposed to be even more better than zidane,but who in his right senses will pick Okocha over zidane . I prefer kanu anyday anytime over okocha and kanu deserves to be rated far above okocha because he (kanu) was actually decisive for both clubs and country.

We were in a store in faraway Jericho (West Bank) last year and a guy walked up to us and asked about our nationality, we told him we are Nigerians... The next thing was ... Oh! Okocha, Austin Okocha, I love him. Another guy mentioned Kanu, Babayaro... We started hugging eachother, took snapshots together and bought some souvenirs from their store as a memorabilia....

That was the day I was truly happy being a Nigerian.....

Same thing happened in Bethlehem right inside the church of Nativity with an American, Mr. Alexander, 62, from Atlanta. He was asking me about Okocha as if we are brothers from the same neighborhood.

Those memories always gives me pure joy that I witnessed Okocha during his hay days.

The truth is players like Okocha wouldn't really be at the top level in the modern game. How many flair players do u see now, its all so systemic and boring, no room for individualism as such. All about control and minimizing errors and his play style is the antithesis of that.
Couldn't have said it any better!

Almost everywhere I went in Turkey, the first question I get asked once they knew me as a Nigerian was “Oh Okocha, Amokachi ..”

I have not gone to any country in the world (been to 24) and ask a random person about Nigeria without mention of Okocha as part of what they know about Nigeria.

You will sha find all means to smuggle tribalism in everything. Is there any part of the country that football lovers don't love and cherish Jay Jay? Akuri oshiwin oniyan.

You can say this for some reasons, but if Okocha if from a better country than Nigeria, he will definitely be greater than what you ever know or see of him.

You don't have the idea of what it means to start your career as a footballer in Africa, in the 90s and make it to the top in Europe.... No you don't know!!!!!!!!!

Do you why an African must cut some years off his real age to fit in into the age grade tournaments?

Do you know what it takes to be discovered? Even when you are discovered, do you think anyone believe in you, not to talk of sponsoring your dream of becoming an a-list footballer?

So many things you don't know bro....

Go and ask the earlier fantastic players who graced Nigeria Football League in the 70s how they become old without any financial achievements to their names despite being famous for what they know how to do best.

Guy, you don't know...

Based on the fact that some people outside the soil of this country still finds him relevant in the football world than many other players of his time.

That should tells you something about your ignorance.
