Buhari speaks live with Eaglets




President Mu­hammadu Buhari had tele­phone conversation with players and officials of the U-17 National Team, Golden Eaglets, ahead of their Final Match against Mali at the FIFA U-17 World Cup Chile 2015.


The live conversa­tion was at the instance of NFF President AmajuPinnick.
PMB, who was Military Head of State 30 years ago when Nigeria won the
inaugural FIFA cadet World Cup in China, and actually gave the team the sobriquet ‘Golden Eaglets,’ tasked the players to win the Cup again and make the country proud.
The President, in chat with players and officials of the team via Skype aid­ed with telephone, said Ni­gerians were behind them and expect that they will bring the trophy home yet again. His Excellency took his turn to speak with each and every player and official, thanking them for a job well done so far and urging them to do every­thing humanly possible to emerge victorious (against Mali) in order to set Nige­ria on the path of glory.
Golden Eaglets’ Head Coach, Emmanuel Amuneke and Captain Kelechi Nwakali, assured Mr. President that the entire team was ready for the final against their West African rivals, and prom­ised to give everything needed to win the trophy in order to “bring smiles to the faces of our people.”
Amuneke said: “It is a great pleasure speaking with you, Mr. President, and we want to assure you that we are going to do our best against Mali on Sun­day to successfully defend the trophy.”
The session ended with a soul-lifting rendition of the National Anthem to­gether with Mr. President.

Guess she can't understand why they won't leave her alone since her dad is no longer president. Former First Daughter Malia is being chased around in NYC by paparazzi, since she arrived the city two weeks ago for her internship with The Weinstein Company. Looks like she'd rather be left alone.
