Super Eagles goal keepers took to his Instagram page to confirm yesterday's reports that he was thrown out of the Eagles camp by security.
He wrote;
"After 13years of national service, having this smiles on my face and this passion in my heart. through the billows, the waves of the ocean, the tears of defeat, the sound of rejoicing from victory chants. now the thought of being stripped naked and security agents throwing me out breaks me completely. i will take anything but not insult to my dead mother."
Enyeama buried his mum last weekend. He was reportedly thrown out of camp yesterday by security on the order of new Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, for coming late.Continue to read what he told a sports journalist about the incident.
Speaking to sports journalist, Colin Udoh, Enyeama said because he came late, (he came on Tuesday when the deadline to report to camp was Monday) Sunday Oliseh dropped him as a team captain and made Ahmed Musa the captain.
“I was surprised, so I stood up to explain my position and ask for an explanation, but the coach asked me to sit down. I insisted on speaking because I felt that with the years of dedicated service I have given to the country I deserve at least the respect of giving my own side.
But he told me that either the whole team would leave the room for me, or I would have to leave the room for the whole team. There has been a lot of incidents these last few months. I don’t need it, the team does not need it, so maybe the best thing might be to step aside in the interest of the country so that the team can focus on football instead of distractions.” he said Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

The goalkeeper should not get bigheaded,your coach is your boss and if you can't stomach that I am sure there are loads of hungry talented youths waiting in the wing.It's highly indiscipline of him taking to social media about what happened within the camp,only fools does that.In a well managed and morally sound country and team,that would be his end representing the country irrespective.If he things he is bigger than others he must be shown the way out

Oliseh how many times i call ur name?
for u to treat a decorated player like that is just below the belt
am totally disappointed in ur stupid actions o, Olorun gbo
the guy bury him mama (may her gentle soul rest in perfect peace, amin)
he still came to camp, what more do u want from him?
let us know what else u expect of him
if i was him i will come 5 days late, or not even bother coming
but thinking of his motherland and the game he loves
he came, ur heart could not send message to the brain to show compassion abi
did u even sympathize with ur keeper? no, it shows what a boss / leader / coach u are
u have forgotten no condition is permanent in life
what will be said about u when a new coach replaces you?
u people must always think bout tomorrow, cos tomorrow is just round da corner o
oga enyama we thank u for ur service to the mother land, if u refuse
to player in the national team again 95% of Naijas will support u
Oliseh is just been power drunk, he is scared of you thats it
he sees u as an individual with his own brain that will not bow to his silly stins
unlike those that will start begging, or those that he will say jump
and they will say how high oga
God bless u for all u did for ur mother land

Oliseh! U wan FAIL as Eagles coach? If yes continue with this foolish behavior. MUMU go ask Siasia.
ReplyDeleteUseless oliseh looking for a favour from they presidency mumu. The same cup u use in the measurement ll be use for too.
ReplyDeleteMy best keeper so far take heart Nigerians love you Wella RIP to your mum.
the guy (enyeama) buried his mother last weekend, reports to camp on tuesday, you (oliseh) said he is late to report to camp HABA take it easy now! Abi you want to play world cup final. it is said that for every rule there are exceptions. abeg take am easy, Nigeria football coach is like army barracks, soldier come soldier go barracks remain
ReplyDeleteOliseh olisah oliseh! How many times did I called you, if you're tired for this job just let us know than to bring this jibes in your players
ReplyDeleteMallam olive na waoooooo, tekam easy oga
ReplyDeleteThe coach's action is insensitive and lacking in humanness.
ReplyDeleteOLISEH IT SEEMS YOU WILL FAIL .YOU ARE NOT SENSITIVE TO PLAYERS PLIGHT
ReplyDeleteOliseh is always an arrogant man.
ReplyDeleteThis confirms he was part of the "mafia" in his playing days. Why invite the guy in the first place? He has a duty to bury his mother. Inviting him by Oliseh shows how insensitive the coach is. We're Africans, and we know when there's is an eternal departure of a family member there are always meeting upon meetings to put the house in order. Coming to camp on Tuesday instead of Saturday isn't out of order at all. I blame Enyeama for turning up at all, if na me, you no go see me. Even
ReplyDeleteHere is history again, look at very rude and indisciplined Oliseh trying to discipline on of the best players in his camp, whatever u plant u will reap. Enyeama is a disciplined goalkeeper. Oliseh should be ask to call him back, but he too should have kept quiet when he was ask to remain silent too.
ReplyDeleteOne of the virtue of leadership is empathy and this coach and proven to lack in this important virtue. What is the duty of a coach? does he play the ball? does he block the ball? his job is to mange the players and keep their spirit high and focus. If as a coach, you did not see a good reason for giving your captain who just buried his mother a good hearing and compassion, then I strongly believed that OLISEH does not have what it takes to be a NIGERIA coach.
ReplyDeletePerhaps Olise's mother is still alive. That is why he doesn't know how one feels when committing his mother to the earth. If I were in Enyeama's shoes, I will not even report to camp.
ReplyDeleteA leader should be concerned about the plight of his team. If Olise will go this route, it will be a BIG miracle for him to deliver
Oliseh would fail if he continues this way. Leadership isn't imposing yourself on people but it is leading by example. Oliseh would not last long as Nigeria's football coach. He is rude, proud, cocky, arrogant and mean! I personally hate him because he isn't friendly. The other day he was almost fighting his co-analyst on Supersports while analyzing a match. He will fail!!!
ReplyDeleteNo matter what, Enyeama deserves the right for fair hearing. Why punishing someone who has made this country proud in such a humiliating manner, just because his mother died. Oliseh should be careful if not the banana peal would slip him away.
