I hope Egypt saga doesn't repeat itself..

forgiveness:




It is an acronym derived from the four original local government areas that make up Anioma, i.e., (A) for Aniocha, (N) for Ndokwa, (I) for Ika and (O) for Oshimili, M and A being common denominators found in the original four local government areas. The coinage was made by the founding father, Chief Dennis Osadebay, in 1951 and has remained the preferred indigenous name by which the people collectively refer to themselves.

Learn please. Chief Dennis Osadebay ( Edo man) coined the name ANIOMA from the original four local government.

Their was nothing like Anioma tribe before 1951 neither has Delta state ever being part of Igbo land nor Eastern Region. It was either under the Western region and later Benin but all that is inconsequential if they decide to tilt towards any tribe or region.

ChrisKels:


Lol dont let the people of "we South South" catch u Oh, because to them, they aint got no identity and their tribe is South South


I'm a full blooded igbo, from the central igbo land, the Eastern heartland, I know my roots and I have an identity. I'm unapologetically and proudly Igbo. No identity crisis

Joebie:
The ex local warlords especially haha

JoebieII:
why did VAR overturn it? Was there ball handling or?

Firstly we need to give the team kudos especially considering the number that failed the MRI scan just before the competition.

The team looks good going forward but their defense was always suspect. Defense seems to be Manu's challenge as the 2013 U17 and 2015 U20 both had that challenge.

Manu needs to fortify the team the more. If he could assemble this crop within 4-5 months, the CAF U17 is in May next year. That is more time to scout around. As we have only 18 Golden Eaglets players now.

Now, there is still the MRI scare as another MRI will be done prior to the CAF U17 and another prior to the FIFA U17 WC. Recall in previous editions we participated some players failed the MRI just before the CAF U17 and some others that passed at the CAF U17 level still failed when the one for the FIFA U17 WC was done. The thing is the boys are still growing, from now to May next year some may have attained complete bone fusion and same goes for ahead of the WC proper.

It means Manu will have to increase his number of players again. And that is still lots of work.

The WAFU qualifiers, though not ideal, has served as an excellent exposure for these boys. If you ask me they are a potential World Champions.

Osimhen enters the match at 0-0 with over 20 minutes left. A goal right now could change a lot not just for this game.

cc12:


"Eastern Heartland" I thought you are from Abia

cc12:


Dennis Osadebay was not an Edo man,he was from Asaba, Delta state

ChrisKels:


My dear, there is nothing like Osadebay. Only he knows why he spelt that name like that, maybe to make it sound un igbo as he already claimed that the man is an Edo man. E no concern me sha But Dennis Osadebe(God kept me) I know, as for Osadebay, it doesnt exist anywhere in this clime.

BascoVanVeli:

IMO WAFU should have been separate from qualifiers. Using this method now leave's a big space of idle time. I wonder if the NFF will keep them together until May next year or just wait like a month or a week till the competition.

fujirice:

Biko, is Osimhen still 17 or there is another Osimhen or overaged players are allowed? Someone please enlighten me.

safarigirl:
lol....i didn't even notice he misspelt the name.

Forgiveness, let Asaba people not catch you calling Osadebe an Edo man. A renowned musician of Igbo extract is who you want to dash to Edo people? Even with the coinage of Anioma, that term means "Good land" in Delta Igbo. Please, don't come and post guess work as facts o, some of us are closer than you think

Leganes just killed a bird from a spot kick. Omeruo still on the bench. Nyom is good oo
