The member of the Enyimba team that ruled Africa in 2003 and 2004 in the prestigious CAF champions League said though there are no longer minnow in today’s football the present crops of players in the line-up are experienced enough to pick maximum points against their opponents.
“You cannot underrate any team again in today’s football, if you do you will get punished,” he warned.

The defender called on the leadership of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) to allow the Nigerian league resume to help local players.
