It is the bill finally arriving for years of reckless housekeeping at the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), and those responsible must be made to pay for it. Our football history shows that Nigeria rarely loses to better teams. It loses to itself. Rabat, en route to the 2026 World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the United States of America, proved it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A Super Eagles side stacked with Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Calvin Bassey and others walked into a penalty shootout against DR Congo and missed spot-kicks that ended the dream in the cruellest fashion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>But the shootout was only the final scene. The real damage was done months earlier, in home draws against Zimbabwe and in away draws in Bloemfontein against South Africa, results that left Nigeria second in Group C and at the mercy of a playoff route it had no business needing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A team that started its campaign with three points from four matches, before Eric Chelle was parachuted in to salvage what he could, was never going to qualify by accident. It needed grip, continuity and competent stewardship from the top. It got none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This is now Nigeria’s second successive World Cup absence, stretching an exile from the tournament back to 2018 amidst a familiar cast of excuses. The country still sits 26th in the FIFA rankings, the second-highest-ranked team on the outside looking in, behind only Denmark. This plainly tells us that this was not a talent problem. It was a leadership issue dressed up afterwards as bad luck and voodoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The financial wound is just as real as the sporting one. Nigeria has forfeited a guaranteed FIFA payout of over ten million dollars, money that represents close to ninety per cent of the federation’s own projected annual budget, along with sponsorship inflows, broadcast revenue and the marketing exposure that comes with dressing rooms full of Premier League and Serie A players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The NFF’s response to all this was a doomed straw-grabbing appeal to FIFA over DR Congo’s player eligibility; it was thrown out, followed by an equally toothless approach to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. That is football administration fighting the scoreboard instead of confronting the mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Nigerian football does not lack talent, and it never has. What it lacks is a federation willing to admit failure without first exhausting every excuse in the book. Italy sacked three of its own football chiefs after missing a third straight World Cup. Nigeria, so far, has offered only silence from the sports ministry and defiance from the football house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The road to 2030 cannot begin with the same hands still holding the wheel. The incumbent Nigerian football administration structure must go, all of them.

Reports in Turkey indicate Osimhen is now next in line to assume the leadership role, although the club is yet to make an official announcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The Super Eagles forward has grown into one of Galatasaray’s biggest stars since joining from Napoli in 2025. Beyond his goalscoring exploits, Osimhen has helped the Yellow and Reds win back-to-back Turkish Super Lig titles and lift the Turkish Cup, while also playing a leading role in the club’s UEFA Champions League campaign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He has become the fastest player in Galatasaray’s history to reach 50 goals and also etched his name into the record books as the first foreign Galatasaray player to score a Champions League hat-trick, achieving the feat against Ajax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Last season, Osimhen combined leadership with decisive performances on the pitch as Galatasaray retained the league title under Okan Buruk. The Nigeria international served as assistant captain, returned from injury to score in the crucial derby victory over Fenerbahce, and later netted twice against Antalyaspor as Galatasaray sealed a record-extending 26th Turkish Super Lig crown. He also finished among the club’s leading scorers across all competitions after delivering key goals in both domestic and European matches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>His growing influence has made him the overwhelming favourite to replace Icardi as captain.
