Watch out for 'How to Win an Under-17 FIFA World Cup in the United Arab Emirates' written by Yours Truly with the Forward by Coach Manu Garba!
I mean, what else can i say about the heroics of these young lads? They must have all read the timeless classic by Brian Tracy - 'GOALS'! [no pun intended] - that is the only way i can explain their record-making goal-haul [26 goals is a new tournament record!].
Now witty puns aside, these boys were good! I started taking interest in them at the Quarter Final stage and like a switch - they turned me on! Prior to now, i thought sitting down to watch a national team side play football for 90 minutes was a luxury until this lads proved me wrong.

For 2 hours we forgot about the eye-sore between ASUU and the FG, for 2 hours we forgot about terrorism and internal insurgence bedeviling the country, for 2 hours we forgot about the epileptic power supply, for 2 hours we forgot about the N255 million saga [or as i prefer to say: 'the Oduah Gate'], for 2 hours we forgot about the N500bn allegedly missing from the SURE-P fund, for two hours we forgot about the antics of the G-7 governors, for those 2 hours we cared less who was running for Presidency in 2015 or not!

It was good that people like 'Papilo', 'high-powered delegation' et al came to show support for the boys. I celebrate with coach Manu Garba as he made over 170 million Nigerians back home proud. I don't have to tell you how excited i am whenever i see youths do exploits like the under-17 did. You don't need a memo to know that the future belong to the youths.
By the way i also play football myself, only that in my case i use my hands - long live Sony's Playstation!
