Bukola Olopade, Director General of Nigeria’s National Sports Commission (NSC), has expressed his disagreement with former Nigeria coach Sunday Oliseh’s comments on Victor Osimhen and other Super Eagles players.
Oliseh recently criticised Osimhen’s actions during Nigeria’s AFCON semi-final loss to Morocco.
He also criticized Super Eagles players for celebrating their third-place finish, calling it a sign of “mediocrity”.

However, Olopade has now strongly disagreed with Oliseh’s comments.
“I disagree with Oliseh on many of his comments, including his indictment of Osimhen and others,” Olopade told Footy-Africa.
“Our superstars of yesterday deserve respect, but they must also take their place as mentors to the younger generation, not denigrate them.”
