Finidi when interview stated that reason for the defeat was because the star players were feeling big to play which attribute in one way or the order to Victor Osimhen, who later went live on instagram to disclose his injury.

Udoh said Finidi never insulted Osimhen said,

“I called a couple of people who were at the meeting between the NFF, Finidi and the minister to confirm whether what is alleged to have been said was actually said.

“These people are really very-very senior and reliable people, and I was told categorically that Finidi did not say the things he is alleged to have said.

“He did not say he was not going to beg Osimhen, he did not say that Osimhen was not committed.

“In fact, he did confirm when he was asked about Osimhen’s absence, that Osimhen called him from Germany and that is why he was excused.

“It was when the issue of players’ commitment was raised that he said he was not going to beg anybody to play for Super Eagles, but he did not mention any player by name specifically.

“I also called Finidi himself to ask if that was the case and he also confirmed to me that he never said any of those things and that he would have no reason to call out any player, whether in public or in private, and that he would address issues with the players himself if there were any issues.

“That as soon as the video was brought to his attention, he reached out to Osimhen to let him know that he never said those things, and that even if he had, Osimhen should have reached out to him first to find out if he said what he was alleged to have said rather than going to the public with such disrespect.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
