Former Nigeria assistant coach, Daniel Amokachi, has warned Nigerians not to interfere in whatever decisions current head coach, Gernot Rohr, takes as regards the squad.
According to Amokachi, nobody should force Rohr against his plans for the team.
Football fans had also kicked against the exclusion of in-form Union Berlin striker Taiwo Awoniyi from the Eagles squad for the qualifiers, while retired forward Ighalo was recalled by the coach.
And a section of the Italian media had expressed its displeasure at Rohr for inviting injured Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen for Nigeria’s final World Cup qualifying matches.
Former Nigerian midfielder, Seyi Olofinjana, had revealed that the Super Eagles lacked true identity under the tutelage of Rohr.
But Amokachi said: “I think about this junction, nobody should dabble into Gernot Rohr’s affairs because if he fails he would attribute his failure to the people who wrongly advised him, so let’s leave him alone to perform his duties and only him would take the blame or praise at the end of the day.”
