Reacting to Sanusi Ibrahim named the highest goal scorer of the NPFL, “he scored ten goals, I scored ten goals and he was named the highest goal. The decision was theirs not mine. I think I am joint goal scorer with him. Notwithstanding, I had to congratulate him”.
While refuting the insinuations that his team Akwa United was carried away by their previous success in the first standard he said “a lot of factors affected our performance in the Super Six.
We played five days in ten days which we are not used to. There was a lot of fatigue. All the same we have moved ahead.”
