Ex- international Oladimeji Lawal has advised Nigerian coaches to stop bemoaning their inability to attend regular refreshment courses on the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) but rather strive to improve themselves.
Dimeji Lawal who is now the General Manager of Shooting Stars Sports Club spoke at the monthly Ex-University of Ibadan Footballers Association virtual interactive program insisting that the football house should be absolved of the issues saying that it’s not supposed to be the priority or statutory agenda of the NFF.
According to him “Whoever decides to be a coach must seek for opportunities to upgrade himself/herself as the job demands.
“There are so many avenues to do that these days, and a lot of coaching courses are available at different levels.
“Any opportunity that is available through the football house should be seen as a privilege not a right”, he said
It would be recalled that Nigerian coaches have been clamoring for the NFF to organize CAF licensing courses which was stopped 8 years ago.
