This happened in 1996. Listen to Okocha.
There was one mumu on this internet that said why did the boys strike for money that they’ll still pay them.
Oliseh said they didn’t pay them since 2001 lol.
NFF/NFA is a useless organisation.

In 2008, the writer Victor Ehikhamenor, who doubles as my very distant relative, friend, and occasional vulcanizer took me along to a birthday celebration in Washington DC of Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart organized by the Washington Post and Pen/Faulkner. White folks are strange, they had a cake for the book. The book did not eat the cake, we did. There was a lot of red wine and cheese and Chinua Achebe was there. I got to meet him and Victor took a photo of us. I was shaking like a leaf and I said something absolutely inane as he shook my hand. He took it well, he looked like a man who's lived all his life enduring the obsessions of fans and groupies. I was so terrified of that experience, I never went out again with Victor.
I regret now, that I did not have the courage to thank Professor Chinua Achebe to his face, for being the general of an army of writers that raised my generation as if we were their kids. Thank you, pa!
