In his statement, he praised the team’s dedication and reminded them that representing Nigeria is a responsibility carried with pride and passion.
Obi emphasized that setbacks should not crush the team’s spirit, noting that great teams across the world are defined not by their failures but by how they rise after difficult moments. He urged the players to remain united, disciplined, and focused as they prepare for future competitions.
According to him, the path forward requires renewed commitment from both the players and technical staff. He noted that with better organization, improved strategy, and sharper preparation, the Super Eagles can return stronger and restore confidence among millions of Nigerian supporters.
Obi also encouraged Nigerians to continue supporting the national team, adding that football remains a unifying force in the country. He described the Super Eagles as a symbol of national pride and stated that the team’s potential is far greater than one difficult match.
He ended his message with a symbolic reminder that “the Eagle never bows its head, it lifts its wings,” urging the team to look ahead with determination and reminding them that the nation still believes in their ability to excel.
