The history of football in Nigeria

The World Championship Football is played out on fields in Russia. One of the participants is the Green Eagles team. The national squad from Nigeria. Nigerian football has seen many famous names, some of the players have played and play for major teams in Europa (and other continents) where they have gained glory. Think of people like Finidi George, Nwanko Kanu.

Wiebe Boer, who spent his formative years in Jos, Plateau State, and now works in Lagos, has a keen eye for Nigerian football. He wrote a book on the history of soccer in his native country. Not only the shirt of the Green Eagles should be a collector’s item, but also this book. More information you will find here

I enjoy reading about Africa. New books. Old books. By African writers. By non-African writers. Novel. History. Travel. Biographies. Autobiographies. Politics. Colonialism. Poetry.
