The Nigerian Football Federation appears to have taken the advice of the Leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, when it retained Augustine Eguaveon as the Super Eagles.
This followed the seemingly spectacular outing of Eguavoen with the Super Eagles at the ongoing African Cup of Nations.
Before he led the team to Cameroon for the competition, the NFF had employed Jose Pesiero to be the head coach for the Super Eagles.
It will be recalled that immediately after Super Eagles exit from the AFCON, Primate Ayodele released a prophecy concerning the fate of the Nigerian team in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Ghana, which will be played in March.
The man of God started by warning the NFF not to take the Super Eagles job from Eguaveon despite the fact that someone else had been employed.
The popular man of God noted that Eguaveon will be a major factor in ensuring the victory of the Super Eagles in the match while giving other spiritual directions concerning the match.
These were his words: “On the World Cup qualifier Nigeria/Ghana, Nigeria has only 68 minutes to score in Ghana and let them (NFF) still use Eguavoen to do that.
“I think the match is coming up soon after the Nations Cup, may be around March or thereabout.God has given them the mandates but if only they listen.
“Firstly, they must not take the Super Eagles job from Eguavoen. Secondly, it is not all these star players that are needed for the games.
“What is his name?
“Musa (Ahmed) must not be part of the team.
“If Musa plays, Nigeria will lose.
“I’m not against Musa, but he must not play against Ghana.”
