The ex-Super Eagles goal-poacher has weighed in on the NFF’s development plans for the national team coach ahead of their next international outing
\nFormer Nigeria international Jonathan Akpoborie said coach Gernot Rohr lacks the talent to lead the Super Eagles and does not deserve an all-expenses paid refresher training programme in Europe.<\/p>\n

Following the country\u2019s third-place finish at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, the Nigeria Football Football Federation [NFF] boss Amaju Pinnick disclosed Rohr will remain at the helm of the national team.<\/p>\n

Pinnick further stated the Federation’s plan to send the 66-year-old on a training course with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich to upgrade his technical ability.<\/p>\n

The news stunned Akpborie, who described it as a waste of the country\u2019s funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cWonderful!! Just read that Amaju [Pinnick] is willing to spend Nigeria\u2019s money to further an old European\u2019s career,\u201d Akpoborie tweeted.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me explain something to you sir, coaching is talent. Rohr does not have it. Stop wasting Nigeria\u2019s money<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
