@MuftauAdewale3 @AAdeleke_01 @Osun_State_Gov The chances are quite slim, to be honest.

@AgentZee10 @AAdeleke_01 @Osun_State_Gov They won't

I visited Osogbo City Stadium, where construction is currently going. The pace of the work is very impressive both inside the main bowl and outside. The Governor of Osun state under the leadership of His. Excellence @AAdeleke_01 Promise to deliver the project soon.

@Vontabmedia @NGSuperEagles Oh! Well… the joy of being Nigerian and deeply involved in football is wanting to see your country compete at the highest level in world football.

@AgentZee10 @NGSuperEagles You sound like it the first time, they missed last time out and heaven didn't fall

Back in London to defend our title! #UnityCup

Osun United should better not be playing in the NLO next season.

@Dojran2021 You’ve made a very valid point, structure and accountability are key, no doubt. But the Nigeria we’re experiencing now makes those stories of people casually flying abroad for weekend trips back in the day feel like a fallacy.

The question I’ve been asked more times than ever is simple: “How?” And most of the time, this question is not just asked to me. It’s asked to people far more experienced, far more intelligent, and far more accomplished than myself in sports. I have listened. I’ve sat with people at the Nigeria Football Federation. I’ve listened to those in the Sports Commission. I’ve spoken to journalists, coaches, players. I’ve seen disputes: agents vs players, clubs vs players, coaches vs players, federations vs clubs. Everyone has an opinion. Everyone has a version of the solution. But I keep coming back to one thing: If we truly want to fix this system, we have to go back to the root of the problem. One of the biggest questions is: Why do embassies make it so difficult for Nigerian players, coaches, scouts, and sports professionals to get visas? Is it because the Nigerian passport is weak? Is it because Europe doesn’t want Nigerian talent? Is it because of politics? No. None of these are the real reason. The real reason is much simpler, and much more uncomfortable: There is no trusted system in Nigeria that proves who is who in sports. In countries like Germany, France, Spain if you say you are a player, a coach, a scout, or even a journalist, there is somewhere to verify that. There is a central database. There is a record. There is accountability. Before you even travel, your federation already knows: Who you are Where you are going Why you are going How long you are supposed to stay And if anything goes wrong, there are consequences. In Nigeria, that system does not exist. Anybody can wake up and say: “I am a player” “I am a coach” “I am going for trials” And yes, they may even show documents. But let’s be honest — even embassies know how easy it is to manipulate paperwork here. They have local staff. They have advisors. They understand the system better than we think. So when they see an application, they are not looking at your story. They are asking: “Can we trust this person to return?” “Can anyone in Nigeria hold this person accountable?” And right now, the honest answer is: No. That is why they ask for excessive documents. That is why they reject genuine people. That is why even real players struggle. So what is the solution? Not more talking. Not more complaints. Not more blame. The solution is structure. Nigeria needs a centralized sports verification and compliance system. A system where: Every player, coach, scout, agent, and journalist is registered Their identity is verified Their career history is recorded Their affiliations are clear So that at any point in time, anyone can be traced and validated. Then comes the second layer: Before any international travel, the federation approves it. Not casually — formally. If you are traveling for 5 days, it is recorded as 5 days. If you are traveling for 10 days, it is recorded as 10 days. Clear purpose. Clear timeline. Clear accountability. Then comes the most important part: Enforcement. If you don’t return when you are supposed to: You are flagged You are contacted If you fail to respond, you are reported Not by the embassy — but by your own system. Once that happens, something powerful is created: Trust. And once trust exists: Visas become easier Movement increases Players attend real trials Coaches attend real programs Scouts travel and build networks Journalists cover international events And most importantly: Investors begin to take Nigeria seriously. Because investment does not follow noise. It follows structure. It follows accountability. It follows systems that work. This is not about talent. Nigeria has never had a talent problem. This is not even about funding. Money comes when the system makes sense. This is about one thing: Trust, backed by structure, enforced by accountability. Until we fix that, we will keep having the same conversations. Different panels. Different speakers. Same outcome. Nothing changes. But the moment we fix this one thing, everything changes.

I guess over 70% of licensed agents in Nigeria have one or two stories about how the system makes it difficult to help local talents achieve their dreams. A big part of the problem lies with embassies and the negative perception of our passport, which keeps holding genuine opportunities back. Man, I love this country… but it can be really stressful.

@sonofgodnceku1 @FCBayern For €120m? Galatasaray will sell him.

@AgentZee10 @FCBayern Yes, they might in 2027 when he has probably 2 years or less remaining on his current contract. Until then, I don't see them releasing him.

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?

@Blue_Footy @Plettigoal He’s an English player, I’m not surprised. An English player performing well in the Premier League will always command a high transfer fee.

‼️Nottingham Forest are demanding a fee in the region of £100-120m for Elliot Anderson. ~ @Plettigoal

@sonofgodnceku1 @FCBayern With the right amount, Galatasaray will cash out.

@AgentZee10 @FCBayern Galatasaray won't release him anytime soon.

Not mumu at all bro. There’s a different kind of pride that comes with chasing your dreams and actually taking steps towards greatness. I had a similar experience in 2024, sometimes you just have to step back and restrategize. The crazy part is, finding the right mentor or father figure in this industry isn’t easy… or cheap. Na long spoon we dey use dine with devil.

Memory lane: The year was 2021, mumu like me went all over Europe and spoke to clubs that I will go find them talented players, they all agreed. Mumu like me took loans, used my money, went over Nigeria organizing scouting events! Over 100m gone, found so many players, sent clubs videos and data! Invites started flowing from serbia,italy,france,greece Viterbese for example Was in Serie C then, I thought! I'm great! I wil move at least 40 players in 1 year! Mumu like me😃😃😃 Embassy politics and Nigerian system made sure I couldn't move even 4! Took my losses, still paying my debts! Learned a valuable lesson. Person wey e work for go think say others lazy! Nigeria is not about invites or club interest, people that know how to get visas and such must be respected because it's not easy and can turn a genius to a fool. A mumu like me learned the hard way.

@godChamber_1 @FabrizioRomano Victor Osimhen would be a perfect fit for Vincent Kompany’s style of play.

@AgentZee10 @FabrizioRomano Godforbid Osimhen comes to Bayern. Kane still has 5 years in Europe as well.

49 goals this season for Harry Kane! 🤖🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@pipsocomano If Harry Kane wins the treble or even a quadruple with Bayern Munich this season, he should consider moving to Saudi or the MLS. He’ll be 33 in July.

@AgentZee10 lol you can’t be serious

Imagine adding Victor Osimhen to this Bayern Munich team 😳🔥 With Jamal Musiala, Michael Olise & Luis Díaz playing behind him, Vincent Kompany will be unstoppable. #RMABAY Real Madrid #SPOARS #ucl

@pipsocomano Kane should go and cash out before retirement.

@AgentZee10 What about Kane ?

Sometimes you forget you have Kai Havertz in your team… then boom, he just turns up when you need him most. #SCPARS Arsenal Sporting Trossard
