NPFL: Victor Enyinnaya’s Poor Reasoning And Reckless Hatchet Job, By James Amadi

By Daily sports on August 30, 2020

Responding to an unknown quantity would simply have been a waste of time but for the need to inform decent and reasonable people in Nigeria’s sports sector and beyond the shores of the country.

Recently, one Victor Enyinnaya, who was apparently invited to come and eat, threw caution to the wind and wove a tapestry of pure lies about Rivers State Commissioner for Sports and, Rivers United Football Club.

In his clearly poorly constructed write up, he sought to diminish the contributions of Rivers Sports Commissioner, Boma Iyaye, to sports development in Nigeria.

He also went out of his way to talk about Rivers United and recent developments in Nigerian Professional Football League.

In the manifestly poor and shallow write up, Enyinnaya spoke about issues he has absolutely no clue about and did not even bother to give any sound reasoning as to his cocktail of hallucinations.

For the records, Boma Iyaye is one of the successful sports commissioners in the history of Nigeria and the records speak tellingly.

Just to educate Victor Enyinnaya; under Iyaye’s watch, Rivers hosted and won the 11th National Sports Festival, just as his tenure has witnessed the emergence of Honour Sirawoo as the President, Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) and, Governor Nyesom Wike being honoured with the Power of Sports in Africa by the AIPS.

Since Enyinnaya does not read and clearly has no sense of history, it is important to inform him that Rivers State has hosted Super Eagles, Olympic Team, African Badminton Championship, National and African Wrestling Championship, Full Council Meeting of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Rivers Sports Festival, among several others with Boma Iyaye superintending as the sports commissioner.

The case of Rivers United is widely known and every discerning football lover and followers of the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) know that there has been a miscarriage of justice in determining who comes second and third on the league table.

Rivers United has committed no crime in explaining to the League Management Company (LMC) and NFF that the club has solid grounds on which it is demanding for justice, fairness and equity.

The quest by Rivers United to rightly fight for what belongs to the club cannot be deterred by hirelings like the author, who confessed that he had a soft spot for Nigeria Football Association (NFF) President, Amaju Pinnick, and could as well have been doing his bidding.

No amount of hatchet writing by the paid agents of Amaju Pinnick will deter Rivers United from seeking the course of justice.

In the words of Thomas Jefferson: “The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.”
