John Ogu hits back at NFF official over #ENDSARS comments

Super Eagles midfielder, John Ogu has hit back at the
unnamed NFF official who claimed he is no longer relevant in the
National Team.

The unnamed official of the Nigeria Football Federation granted
an interview to the Guardian shortly after John Ogu posted a
message on social media urging his teammates to boycott the
upcoming 2022 African Cup qualifiers, due to the #EndSARS
shooting.

The Politicians should asked their children
to go and represent Nigeria in the next @NGSuperEagles , @thenff upcoming games .

In his interview with Guardian, The NFF official described Ogu
as unpatriotic and called on him to imitate Didier Drogba who used
football to stop the civil war in his country.

In his response, Ogu said that he only asked people in power to
tell their children to represent the country since it is right for
them to allow other people’s children to be killed.

Ogu said that the official wants him to emulate Didier Drogba
while they cannot emulate football officials from countries like
Portugal and others who give the welfare of their players priority
attention.
