Some Super Eagles Players Not Committed, Good Enough – Sports Minister

The desire and commitment of Super Eagles players, who were born abroad have been questioned by Nigeria’s Sports Minister, John Enoh.

The Minister said some players in the team are not good enough for the Super Eagles.

Osun Defender reports that the Super Eagles faltered in their last two outings against South Africa and Benin Republic.

“We have in the Super Eagles about 90 per cent of players not born in Nigeria. Do they have the spirit, the fire of a Nigerian player born in Nigeria?,” the Sports Minister asked in an interview with Eagle7 FM.
