Ever seen teammates bicker on the pitch over a missed pass? That’s the Super Eagles drama in Fès, but NOA DG Lanre Onilu just defended Victor Osimhen’s 63rd-minute flare-up with Ademola Lookman as fiery passion for Nigeria’s glory—not indiscipline.
Onilu, cheering from Morocco with a Federal Government crew, insists Osimhen’s outburst stemmed from “deep patriotism and commitment” during Nigeria’s dominant Round of 16 rout of Mozambique. Lookman himself squashed beef, confirming unity as the Eagles soar to quarters.
NOA flooded Fès with 5,000 flags and banners, turning stands green-white-green—creating a “home game” vibe that fired up players. Onilu hails AFCON as Africa’s ultimate prize, not consolation, while backing NFF’s FIFA petition against Congo’s alleged ineligibility.
From 818 offices nationwide, NOA pushes cohesion, policy vibes, and Super Eagles fever—urging fans to rally behind the squad chasing continental domination and World Cup dreams!
