As we mourn Vialli and Pele, I ask myself which day Nigeria will start to excel in every area of endeavour. Let us start with goalkeeping and ask when we will produce a real global legend 

Ayo Akinfe 

[1] Lev Yashin 
[2] Rinat Dasayev
[3] Gordon Banks 
[4] Sepp Mieir 
[5] Walter Zenga 
[6] Oliver Khan 
[7] Peter Schmiechel 
[8] Dino Zoff 
[9] Gianluigi Buffon 
[10] Gianluca Pagliuca

We cannot be content with excelling in just one or two areas. From what I can see, the only area where we are real world beaters is with the opening of religious houses.

Nigeria can easily boast of making the list of the world’s top general overseers but alas, when you have a population of 200m, you need to excel in every sector of life. We have to stop believing the government has the solutions to all our problems!
