Iorfa slams Uwua

According to the Ex-International, Lobi stars do not owe Godwin Uwua any kobo. "I am a chairman, am not a coach, there is a difference between management and coaching but I am ready to go to court. I will invite you press men and we will know who is guilty. I will even put -N-1million aside for whoever wins as side betting. Honestly he has no case."

When further asked to put the nail on the coffin as to whether the coach is being owed any money at all, the tall former centre forward continued, spitting fire. "Look if any of you here does not have enough money, am ready to support you to come to court. We will settle the whole thing there. I can’t begin to talk over money issues here".

Conclusively, the football administrator sounded out a note of warning to the FA cup winning coach asking him to stop insulting his state governor.

"Uwua should stop bringing in Akume into this matter. He has no respect at all; he only has respect for money. I didn’t sack him, he left on his own. He should face the task at hand over there in Benin and justify the huge amount he is being paid. He just must leave us alone.

Meanwhile, Dominic Iorfa also seized the oppourtunity to praise the referees who handled the game between his side and Shooting stars football club at Ibadan last Wednesday stating how he would have wished to have the same officials all season long.

"If officiating were like this everywhere, I will have no problem with them. Apart from the 80’s and early 90’s, officiating has never been this good. Football will progress in this country if we keep having this set of officials."
