He wrote ;

If those our grannies with age falsification will be retiring voluntarily like Ighalo in civil service work and politics, the youths will have a better opportunity to move this country forward.

Ehya

Welcome development. Legend.

Had to change my comment. He is a patriot and should not be disrespected by any sane Nigerian. Even KANU had his flops when he playing for Naija.

.

Why are all these current super eagle players retiring anyhow? During the time omakachi, okocha &co. You will see strong old men playing matches. As for me sha, you've not serve your country wella.

Good bye champ...wish you well in your future endeavors!

Just 30 already retiring from the national team. When he still has lot of football years to play. Unless he's not 30. cos average ageof retiring from the national team is between 33-36. He can't say because of this Afcon2019, cos he had a wonderful tournament.

We don't have any striker for now..... This guy better come out of retirement if he no want make I swear for am

I wish you well in your future pursuit. Your sacrifices to the team is well appreciated. Kudos!

Eventually this might be the reasons


1. Unpaid allowances

2. He want to end it in good shape not like Mikel who ended his career playing badly and fans stated teirt cristicis

3. He wants to give the younger boys the chance to grow up

Ok

I know he can be very wasteful but truth be told, he is one of our all time best, with a conversion rate of. 0.4 goals per match






PS I know onuachu is young but that dude needs to retire

Wasteful

IGHALO SHOULDBE GIVEN BEST PLAYER FOR AFCON AWARD

Mtcheeeeeeeew

Oh no! Why bro? Seem too early to take this decision.

A good way to hang boot on a high and when the ovation is loudest not the way Enyeama and Moses did theirs

A lot of anger-arousing news happened during my ban. I believe the ban was stamped by God to happen cos If I was not banned I would have said the unsayable. God really loves me. He did not want me to offend Him through words of mouth.

And to Mr. Banner, thank you very much for allowing God to use you to ban me. May the Lord strengthen you more and more.

And to my friend, Kingofdart, becos of him I was banned.

oh dear ighalo
you retired never had a chance of playing you in PES

Oshimeh .....Paul Onuachu Maybe SuperEagles will have to scout for new and deadly striker

Good.. Make way for others. I just hope the replacement is way better and deadlier. If only iheanacho had sense he woulda been the replacement but pussy don weak him abilities.

After extensive studies on football what I gets to find out is that those that don't know how to play soccer only know how to course players. Abeg make una free D guy joor! U don play UR part snr man.

He is still young nah?
May be he choose to live when the ovation is loud

How old is he that he is retiring now ehn, Village people

Not now. No replacement yet. Come back here Mr man.
