Oliseh Tells Osimhen to Pray and Help Nigeria Qualify for the Next World Cup
Nigerian football icon Sunday Oliseh has advised Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen to turn to prayer as he navigates the next phase of his career.
Oliseh shared his thoughts after the 26-year-old sealed a permanent move to the Turkish giants, following an unsuccessful summer push for a Premier League switch. Despite interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United, none of the clubs made a move before the window closed.
The former Super Eagles captain is confident that if Nigeria books a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the big clubs will come calling for Osimhen next year. In a video making the rounds, Oliseh urged, “Victor has to pray… he needs Nigeria to be at the next World Cup.”

“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”

Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
