‘Dodo Mayana’…!
The news is true.
‘Dodo Mayana’ passed on, yesterday.
Once again, my heart is heavy with pain.
Oh no! Not Dodo, not my good friend, my loyalist, the legendary Nigerian goalkeeper, Peter Rufai, aka ‘Dodo Mayana’.
Between us we had a story that I will share in my editorial, tomorrow morning. Plus the experiences of other special guests including ‘hot’ Nelly Sylva, that shall also share their thoughts and experiences on the great, legendary goalkeeper, Peter Rufai!
Plus bits and pieces about the ‘Night of Tributes’ coming up on Monday, July 28th, to celebrate the lives of Christian Chukwu, Charles Bassey and Obisia Nwakpa, as preparations are ongoing for their funerals in the month of August.
I shall also be inquiring about why retired Nigerian athletes may be dying relatively young; Why most struggle to survive during their post-athletics careers; Why we do not hear of more success stories about retired athletes.
All of these, tomorrow morning from 7:30am on Eagle7 Sports Radio 103.7 FM Wasimi, near Abeokuta, Nigeria, and via our website eagle7fm.com/.
Just click on this site when it’s time and listen/watch.

Muda Lawal of Nigeria opened scoring and closed the scorers’ chart of the 1980 African Cup of Nations,scoring the first of tournament’s 33 goals against Tanzania and scoring the last goal in the final match against Algeria.
Big Shegs, thanks for these wonderful videos.
Very interesting memories. We were fanatical about the Green Eagles as they were then called. Henry Nwosu had just broken into the team. We were extremely jealous of him because he belonged to the other school. We also were jealous of Adokie because he was from another other school, but nonetheless we were proud of them because they represented the best of Lagos schools who graduated into the national team. Can’t wait to see more videos?
Great guys Adokiye was superb on d left , Segun terrific on on d right…d Eagles of today must learn from dis clips and start to play like true Eagles
Great stuff. Thanks sharing this piece history with us your aburos Big Sheg. Always the Mathematical 7!
Just look at those short pants showing the physics of the sportsmen.
When men were boys. Highly determined without thinking of financial benefits from anyone because they were all fully employed.
I salute you all sirs.
Fantastic and great memory sir.
Well done the Mathematical Odegbami “7”
