IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE IT QUIT, OBUH ADVISES EGUAVOEN.

Former Super Eagles defender Augustin Eguavoen has been advised to quit coaching if he can’t handle the pressure associated with it.

Augustin Eguavoen had on June 9, 2016 resigned as head coach of Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL club Sunshine Stars just 45 days on the job and had also insinuated that there were dirty politics going on in the Nigeria top tier league.

Reacting to this, coach John Obuh a former Enugu Rangers manager in a chat with bunmiblair.blogspot.com. has advised the former Gent of Belgium defender to quit coaching if he can’t stand the pressure.

"My brother you see, if you do not really want to kill yourself, if you cannot handle it, you quit. It is as simple as that.
Don’t forget that he went for a rescue mission, maybe what he saw was not what he expected.” Obuh said.



Obuh who is on the verge of leading Kwara United, back to the NPFL also admits it is difficult to coach at the top and wants more attention be given to the Nigeria Professional Football League, NNL where there are numerous talented players.

Former Green Eagles player Segun Odegbami had also labeled Eguavoen’s resignation a product of corruption.


Eguavoen’s travails as a coach continues having had unsuccessful stints with the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Nigeria national U-23 team, Enyimba International, Bendel Insurance, Gombe United F.C. and now Sunshine Stars.

  By Bunmi Blair Former Super Eagles goalkeeper Emmanuel Babayaro, says Nigeria should never worry about the availability of any of the Super Eagles players, ahead of world cup qualifier against Cape Verde. The Atlanta 1996 gold-winning goalkeeper, believes it is an opportunity for other players to prove themselves. English Premier League clubs had announced they will not release players for international matches played in so-called covid-19 “red-list” countries, because players travelling to red-list countries would have to follow UK COVID regulations upon their return, ruling them out of some club matches.

"With all due respect, by now the Nigerian national team,  we should have two to three standby teams that people can walk in an
