spanked Fulham 4-1 on Saturday afternoon at the
Britannia Stadium also joked about Channel TV’s
portrayal of his recall.

prodigal son Channels TV said? Anyhow una call am I
am pleased to be back," he said.

national team since making his debut in the Super
Eagles’ 3-0 defeat of Kenya on May 4, 2002.
