OGUNJOBI TO OSHOALA: Go back to school now!

Former Secretary-General of Nigeria Football Federation, NFF
and erstwhile chairman of the body’s technical committee,
Chief Taiwo Ogunjobi, has urged newly crowned African Queen
of the Year, Asisat Oshoala, to return to school for her to be
academically equipped for the future.
The chairman, Prime Football Club, opined that he was
shocked when he knew the Rivers Angels goal-poacher is a
Secondary School (SS2) drop-out; “I was shocked the day I
heard Asisat Oshoala is a drop-out despite her level of
intelligence,” Pillar of Sports in State of Osun said.
Ogunjobi, while giving Oshoala a fatherly advice said now that
the ovation is loud, she should return to school and further
her education.
“Education is important, football is temporary and if you don’t
leave football, football will leave you one day. I played football
to the highest level (Green Eagles) but education was what I
fell back on after my active football career.
“We live in a society where the ability of an individual to be
successful depends largely on their education. I am using this
medium to appeal to Asisat Oshoala to return to school so as
to get her future properly secured.”
Oshoala whose dream was to become a lawyer, incurred the
wrath of her parents when she dropped out of school to
pursue a football career.
Meanwhile, the former Sole Administrator of Shooting Stars
Sports Club of Ibadan, had congratulated Oshoala for
emerging as the African Queen and Young Player of the year
2014.
