According to the former AC Milan forward, these are critical periods for Nigerian football and it calls for unity and concerted efforts by all stakeholders, for Nigerian football to achieve its desired goals.
” It is bad enough that we lost a crucial game at home to South Africa. However, we shouldn’t allow it to dampened our morale, ” Henty admonished.
” I believe that rather than trading blames, we should support and encourage Gernort Rorh and his technical crew to roll up their sleeves, in order to reposition the fortunes of Nigerian football, ” the immensely talented and lanky forward stated.
Speaking further, Henty praised the efforts of the Super Eagles gaffer in opening the doors of the national team to young and talented footballers of Nigerian descent in the diaspora.

Importantly, too, it would also help to boost the pool of football talents for the good of the Nigerian football, ” he enthused.
