Former Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr, has said it will be disappointing if the team failed to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The West Africans missed out on a place at the last edition of the mundial hosted by Qatar.

The Super Eagles have endured a poor start to the 2026 qualifiers, recording three draws and one defeat from four matches.
The three-time African champions are second from bottom in Group C.

Rohr, who masterminded Benin Republic’s 2-1 victory over Nigeria said it will be a disaster if the Super Eagles failed to qualify for the global soccer fiesta for the second consecutive time.

“If they miss another one, for such a football country with the best players in Africa, it would be a little bit shameful,” Rohr stated.
So, I think the players will do everything to go there (World Cup), and also the federation and the staff. But now, of course they must be realistic and say that it’s only three points in four games.”

Kindly post if you have any evidence that Finidi made such accusations.

Former Ajax star Finidi George has responded to recent viral comments made by Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen, who had gone live on Instagram to counter allegations that he faked an injury to avoid participating in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic, Soccernet.ng reports.

Osimhen’s comments stirred significant attention on social media, prompting veteran Nigerian journalist Colins Udoh to investigate the situation further.


Udoh reached out to top executives of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF), who refuted claims that Finidi had accused Osimhen of feigning injury.

The executives corroborated Osimhen’s account that he had communicated with Finidi about his injury but clarified that Finidi never accused him of faking it.

In discussions with the Nigerian football authorities, Finidi reportedly emphasized that he would not compel any player to represent the Super Eagles. He maintained that players should willingly commit to the team.

ESPN journalist Udoh also disclosed his conversation with Finidi, who stated that he had contacted Osimhen following the public uproar. Finidi affirmed that he never made such accusations and would have addressed any concerns privately.

The Nigerian football community remains divided over the controversy, but with the confirmation of the falsehood of the accusations, fans are now awaiting Osimhen’s apology to the Nigerian football legend for the public outburst.

Embattled Finidi George has opened up on the turmoil he has faced in his first few weeks in charge of the Super Eagles.

He said he has not received much support from his employers the NFF and he did not hesitate to fault the commitment of the players to the cause of the national team.

This he did when he along with NFF chieftains met with Sports Minister John Enoh in Abuja to review Super Eagles tottering 2026 World Cup campaign
after they held South Africa to a 1-1 draw in Uyo before they were shocked by lowly Benin 2-1 in Abidjan.

A source told SCORENigeria that Finidi used the poster-boy of Nigeria football Victor Osimhen to drive home his point that the country’s top stars are not fully committed to the Super Eagles
Osimhen was not available for the two all-important World Cup qualifiers with an official explanation that he is injured and sidelined for four weeks.

“Finidi said the Napoli striker could still have managed to play these matches,” SCORENigeria was told.

“The coach will go on to say that it appears that Osimhen chooses the games he plays for Nigeria and he cannot beg him to play for his country.”

The former Enyimba coach also bemoaned the complete breakdown of discipline in the team and was totally disappointed with how the players strolled into training camp for the crucial World Cup qualifiers.

He said many of these players have the backing of some powerful NFF Board members and that it became increasingly difficult to sanction them because he would often be warned that a player “belonged” to a certain “big man”.

The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, said yesterday that the apex bank is not defending the Naira with the nation’s foreign reserves.

He was speaking against the backdrop of the recent decline in Nigeria’s foreign reserves corresponding with massive appreciation of the Naira in the foreign exchange market (forex), fueling speculations that the apex bank pumped forex into the market to dwarf demand pressure and shore up the value of the local currency.

CBN not using foreign reserves to defend Naira — Cardoso

The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, said yesterday that the apex bank is not defending the Naira with the nation’s foreign reserves.



He was speaking against the backdrop of the recent decline in Nigeria’s foreign reserves corresponding with massive appreciation of the Naira in the foreign exchange market (forex), fueling speculations that the apex bank pumped forex into the market to dwarf demand pressure and shore up the value of the local currency.



Speaking at the on-going Spring Meetings of the IMF the World Bank, Cardoso said that his team at the apex bank is determined to nurse a foreign exchange market ruled by the principle of willing buyers-willing seller.


He also said that Ways and Means (federal government borrowings from CBN) is no longer an issue, particularly after the fiscal authorities securitised the outstanding.

His words, “Defending the Naira, from every indication is an elephant in some rooms. I will make this as clear as possible. It is not our intention to defend the Naira. Much as I have read in the recent few days some opinions about what has happened in terms of our reserves being drawn down, the CBN Defending the Naira, if you take your mind to our philosophy and policy, you will see it will be counter intuitive. We want the Naira to perform independently as long as we have a vibrant forex market.


“Initially we needed to keep the BDCs going. So it is important for people to get forex for school fees, travels and the like.

Why reserves shifted

“The shift you see in our reserve is not to defend the Naira but for things like settling obligations that fell due. Mind you, that is the reason for keeping foreign reserves, in the first place.”

Cardoso also said that his team is cooperating with the fiscal authorities and that, “Ways and Means is no longer an issue.

He said, “Let me be upfront in saying that the monetary policy is only one side. It is very clear to us that we need to have a very good handshake with the fiscal authorities.
