On ‘90 mins with Mathematical’ - Stop the NFF elections!
My column tomorrow morning in several national newspapers has an intriguing headline: ‘Appeal to President BAT - Stop the NFF elections’.
My contention is that Nigeria is being railroaded into an election into the NFF Executive Committee that is already skewed to favour the incumbents and scuttle any attempt by any ‘outsider’.
The results are already worked out even before a vote is cast. The ‘amended’ guidelines are cosmetic, disguised to appease government and leave out the biggest stakeholder through scare tactics - FIFA sanction!
To organise a transparent and equitable election that will involve all stakeholders with equal representation requires temporarily halting the entire present charade and properly amending the statutes.
On ‘90 mins with Mathematical’ in the morning tomorrow (Saturday August 8, 2026), we shall be discussing how that can be achieved.
Maxwell Lawrence will lead the public to ask me all and any questions on the subject, particularly my decision to take the matter to the Nigerian civil courts in order to reset the buttons of proper administration of Nigerian football!
All Nigerians interested in this impending ‘battle’ must tune in and participate from 7:30 am on Eagle7 Sports Radio 103.7 FM, Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. Or click on eagle7fm.com/ when it is time and be connected.
Simply unmissable.
Pls share to all Nigerians that love their football with a passion.

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”
