Dr Ibrahim Salawu, who is an expert in Politics and Governance stressed that the players and their coaches must not toy with the qualification alone but strive to make a bold statement by winning the Semi-final and eventually lift the AFCON TROPHY
He Commended the Technical Crew led by Coaches Aliyu Zubair and his able assistants Lukeman Ijaiya and Caleb Esu for their high level technical savvy to overcome the rampaging attackers from Senegal
Dr Salawu who is also a Public Commentator described the Victory against Senegal as a break through to plan well in advance and build a virile squad that will repeat what Nigeria did in Chile with the U-17 lifting the World Cup in 2015 with Emmanuel Amunike as Coach
