Imagine a local Nigeria n clubside beating a Brazilian top team today. Why is football more organised in some African countries poorer than Nigeria? Tony Kojo Williams and later Godwin Obaseki all wanted Ppp arrangement where Insurance coys would fund stadium construction for all the Premier league teams and people can buy the shares of the clubs just like shares of Dangote companies....only thing the state govs should do was to provide the parcels of land. But greed by football officials and politicians who have been feeding fat on gov ownership of the Premier league clubs frustrated it. We need to revisit Williams' and Obaseki's concepts.
@ELEGBETETV He's not talking about Godwin Obaseki the current Governor of Edo state. He's talking about "Oyuki Obaseki". Renown Sports administrator in this country and one time Bendel insurance chairman in the late 70s. The late Emeka Omeruwa and also late. Isiaku Markafi are legendary sports administrators in this country.
Fluminese actually played Bendel Insurance in Nigeria!?🤥 Oh, the glory days of the Nigerian Football League. How did we lose it? How can we restore it?
We are working hard to bring that glory days back and better it, it would require all hands on deck, it would require everybody chipping in their quota.
The damage that man caused since, the league is still suffering from it till now. The devil is better than that man if we are to be honest. Nobody have done more damage to league football in Nigeria than that man.
Living legend…God bless you sir for your selfless service to the nation…10/10 🙌🏽
I can only say, I can wait to see the whole of what you are cooking. The aroma sweet die.
This is the first time I have ever heard his voice and he speaks excellent English
Yes he does
Passion was the name of the game back then
The Great 10 10 🌟
That tackle he delivered against the Algerian player in that Maroc '88 semi-final after Ademola Adeshina was sent off was the game changer.

Unyuiki Obaseki my spelling of his first name is wrong, the former sports minister less than 10 years ago.
