“Let’s look within” – Super Eagles fan calls for NFF to appoint Onyekachi Apam
By Monsurah Olatunji
It’s intriguing to hear the call for Onyekachi Apam to potentially take over as head coach of the Super Eagles following Finidi George’s resignation.
Apam’s credentials as a former Super Eagles player, his success as a youth coach at OGC Nice’s U15 team, and his extensive experience as a player both at club level and internationally certainly make him a compelling candidate.
His leadership qualities, coupled with his understanding of both Nigerian football and international football dynamics, could indeed bring a fresh perspective to the national team setup.
Moreover, his background as a well-trained and licensed coach adds weight to his candidacy.
The sentiment expressed by Alex Onyia underscores a growing desire among Nigerian football fans to prioritize local talent in coaching roles before considering foreign options.
This approach not only promotes continuity and understanding of local football culture but also emphasizes the development and utilization of homegrown coaching talent.
As discussions unfold regarding the next Super Eagles head coach, voices like Onyia’s advocating for figures like Onyekachi Apam highlight a broader conversation about the direction and leadership of Nigerian football at the national level.
