The Super Eagles legend has extolled the intrinsic worth of the African coaching icon during his time as Nigeria handler
Joseph Yobo describes late Shuaibu Amodu as Nigeria’s liberator during stormy times.
Wednesday marked the fourth year in the anniversary of Amodu’s passing at the age of 58 – which was at the time, three days after the death of Stephen Keshi.
The iconic coach was famed for rescuing the Super Eagles whenever they found themselves in an unwarranted state. With Nigeria’s 2002 World Cup qualification hopes in jeopardy, he pulled the country’s chestnut out of the fire after replacing axed Jo Bonfrere.
