Jordan Ibe Will Play For England, Turns Sunday Oliseh Down

Some Nigerians have not still learned to serve their father's land. Not everyone will be has lucky as Akeem Olajuwon or what has David Olatokunbo Alaba gained from playing for Austria but one could also argue that Emmanuel Adebayor was right to play for Togo though he has no trophy to show for it.

The John Fashanu issue is a good reason why a Nigerian should not really consider playing for England. I admit that playing for England is tempting with the huge media presence that can make and break you and a wish to play in the Euros is a big dream - even Messi, Neymar, Suarez & co will wish they could. If Ibe gets a call to the three lions one factor will be key, he must always be on top of his game. A lost form will mean that he will be dropped and an average form will imply that a white player with a bit less form than him will be considered before him. Are you thinking of how possible that is? very simple, white is the colour, white skin.

In a nutshell Jordan Ibe turned the great Sunday Oliseh down after Oliseh visited him and his family members in a bid to lure him to play for Eagles. Good news though, Oliseh will concentrate on local based players. Read the news after the cut.....
