Former Nigerian international Seyi Olofinjana has faulted the decision of the Nigeria Football Federation (MFF) to offer Super Eagles coach George Finidi a one-year contract.
Recall that Finidi was officially unveiled on Monday and will take over from Jose Peseiro, who left the job after taking the Super Eagles to the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Speaking on Monday Night Football on Supersports, Olofinjana stated that a one-year contract is not enough for Finidi to achieve tangible results.
“I think it’s good we have an ex-international, someone who knows what playing for Nigeria is all about, as the Super Eagles head coach. But does he have a lot of experience at this level? But again, the Guardiola’s of this world started from somewhere.
“But then, can we all trust and support him? The appointment has been made, and there is no going back again. I think for me that trust has already been broken by giving the so-called young, inexperienced coach at this level a one-year contract. What is he going to do in a year?
“”If truly they believe in him what is happening to a four- or five-year contract and say come what may, we trust you, and whatever happens along the way, we’ll trust you.”

That is what happens where a bunch of idiots hold sway. Fools who have no idea how things should work. One year contract means no trust and trains load of Why could they not offer him the same two year contract given to Priserio and Rhor, are Nigeria Football Federation trying to tell us that Priserio and Rhor are superior human beings to Finidi?
You’re very correct bro.

Mr Olofinjana shut it, that one year contract is Ok. Let us see how it goes, nobody is wishing Finidi bad, it is what it is.
Haaaaaaa! Olofinjanaaa!!, Someone who spent 20 months as an assistant coach is inexperienced? That was a team that won Afcon silver,Olofinjanaaa. And don’t forget our newly appointed coach was also the head coach to one of the top three club side. Na wao!
You can imagine this ex international what comes out of them very wicked I now see the wisdom of finidi in going for the people he picked as his assistants envy and jealousy no go kill these people
Na jealousy becus he wasn’t even considered. Olofinjana or whatever they call you, if you’re interested in Super Eagles top job, go and first learn the rope, and tgen show us what you have done with your training otherwise, you’re nothing but a bittered toxic that the coach must avoid. Rubbish.
How many yrs contract did they give to pesiro when he was in charge..was it not 2 hrs contract with conditions for extension..
There is nothing wrong with the one yr they gave finidi.. I’m certain the contract has conditions for extension.. if met he gets extra years!
The only message this foolish olofinjana want to pas is that finidi is inexperienced inexperienced he won the Nigeria premier League inexperienced he served as assistant to pessero for twenty months olofinjana shame on you complete sports shame on you too for bringing to from burner the idiosyncracy of this expired former internationals
