Calabar fans are fantastic, others must imitate – Maigari



Delighted Nigeria Football Federation’s President, Alhaji Aminu Magari has described Calabar fans as been polished and educated, urges other part of the country to emulate them.

Maigari enjoyed all the Nigerians soccer fans to emulate the Calabar fans in patience and understanding as the Super Eagles are on a building process.
The Gombe state born football administrator reiterated his plans to bring more national and international matches to Calabar after extolling the hospitality shown and peaceful atmosphere enjoyed during the team’s stay in Cross River State.
The gentle and collected top-notch officer of the country’s football governing body has wished Nigeria soccer lovers joy, peace and more victories ahead of subsequent matches which may be heavily envied by other part of the country, notably Lagos though hosting the national women team, Super Falcons.
The tolerant attitude of the Calabar fans must have delighted the leadership of the Nigeria Football Federation following the manner of composure and maturity displayed during the June 3rd 2014 World Cup Brazil qualifiers against Namibia despite the team failed to win the match early.

The Calabar fans were spectacular again as they cheered the Super Eagles to a 2:0 comprehensive victory over the Wasps of Rwanda in Calabar on Saturday- A victory that sees Nigeria progress into the final round of the qualifiers for 2013 AFCON in South Africa.

My Take: If Super Eagles had lost, we would have known the true fans…
Abuja too was calm until they realized Nigeria will not be at AFCON 2012 and the real fans came out.
