Enyeama Faces Ban from Super Eagles

Null
Chairman of the Nigeria Football Federation
(NFF) Disciplinary Committee,
Christopher
Green, has revealed that Super Eagles
goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama, could be
banned from appearing for the national team
in future.
The NFF announced on June 20 that
Enyeama has been summoned before its
disciplinary committee on Tuesday, June 23.
Enyeama was queried by the NFF for
comments relating to safety and security in
Kaduna, venue of Nigeria’s first 2017 Africa
Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying match
against Chad.
The LOSC Lille goalkeeper failed to reply the
query and has now been asked to appear
before the disciplinary committee tomorrow.
Green told supersport.com that failure to
appear before the committee could result in a
ban, for Enyeama, from turning out for the
Super Eagles in future.
“Yes, that (recommending that Enyeama is
stopped from playing for Nigeria) is an
option but right now, I would rather wait until
after the meeting on Tuesday,” he said.
The NFF’s disciplinary committee chief also
took the time to address the fine of $5,000
USD fine slammed on midfielder, Ogenyi
Onazi.
Onazi was punished after receiving a straight
red card in the game against Chad for
scuffling with Les Sao’s Massama Asselmo in
the 81st minute.
The SS Lazio man claimed afterwards that he
was elbowed by Asselmo but Green was not
impressed.
“Would Onazi have done that if he was
playing at his club? The truth is some of our
players don’t show the required amount of
discipline when they play for the national
team.
“These things will no longer be condoned
because without discipline, nothing positive
can be achieved,” he said.
