I crave the indulgence
of Eternity Reminders Blog readers today to flash back to close to 25 years
ago (1995 to be specific) when the word ‘wobbling and fumbling’ entered the
dictionary of Nigerian football. What brought about it? Nigeria’s u-20 team (a.k.a The Flying Eagles) consisting a large percentage of the victorious Nigeria’s u-17 team (a.k.a Golden Eaglets) just 2 years back failed to fly against all
expectations when Nigeria hosted the African u-20 Championship which was to
serve as qualifiers for the u-20 world cup also scheduled to hold in Nigeria
later that same year. The coach of the team (Fanny Amu – who coincidentally
led the team to win the u-17 world cup 2 years earlier) consciously or
unconsciously came up with the famous quote when being interviewed by
journalists on the chances of his team to host and win the tournament, after
a disastrous 3-3 draw with Mali in the opening match. The team indeed wobbled
and fumbled to get to the semifinals where our bitter rivals Cameroun
eliminated the team. Of course, the coach who was the darling and hero of Nigerian
soccer fans just 2 years back became a villain and the most hated man in Nigerian football. It was therefore no surprise when he got the boot from the NFA shortly after.

I remembered the the above incident this past week and the above question pops up in my heart. I then decided

opinion. Is it really possible to wobble and fumble to ETERNITY? Your opinion in the comment section below will be greatly appreciated.
Shalom!

Introduction Ogo ni fun Olorun l’oke orun. Mo tun wi leekan si pe ogo ni fun Olorun l’oke orun. E jeki a gbadura (Glory be to God in heaven. And I say once again, glory be to God in heaven. Shall we pray?)[1] This slogan echoed over the Nigerian airwaves, especially in south-western Nigeria, for close to four decades. Each time it echoed, those who were familiar with it easily identified the voice of Apostle (Dr.) Timothy Oluwole Obadare, one of the indigenous prophets of the land, who was the General Evangelist of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) (Worldwide); the Executive Director of World Soul-Winning Evangelistic Ministry (WOSEM) and the President of the Interdenominational Ministers’ Association of Nigeria (IMA). Formerly of The Apostolic Church (TAC), he worked with the church for a period of four years, 1953 to 1957, before he was brought into the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) by Apostle Joseph Ayodele Babalola in 1957. Having joined the CAC, he ...
