Written by Fairchick Date
I have ever read. Wiebe Boer has combined facts and figures with fluid
prose in delivering a most engaging narration. Simon Kolawole –
Journalist and founder of The Cable I am very pleased to see that in
this deeply researched book on the history of football in colonial
Nigeria, Dr. Boer has worked painstakingly to tell a positive and
unifying story of Nigeria – one that focuses on what we have in mmon,
and what makes us collectively great as a nation. Aliko Dangote –
President and CEO, Dangote Group This book will become known as one of
the most important references for not only learning about the history
of football in Nigeria but also the history of Nigeria itself and this
doesn't even describe well enough, how good it is.Source:Proshareng

Olakunle Kasumu – Presenter / Co-Producer, the Channels Book Club TV Show I appreciate how Dr. Boer, my primary school classmate, has finally brought to light the story of my father, John Dankaro, and Nigeria's other early football stars and the roles they played in unifying and bringing glory to the nation. This book is a must read, not just for fans of Nigerian football, but fans of Nigeria itself. Joseph Dankaro – Department of Sociology, University of Abuja In this deeply researched, but highly readable book, Dr. Boer has brought his well-honed skill as a professional historian to the service of Nigerian history and Nigerian football.

In this book, Dr. Boer has gone to the lengths and breadths of Nigeria to reveal the story of how football became so important to us as a nation. Though introduced by foreigners, football quickly became indigenised and was an important element for anti- colonial protest, the development of a Nigerian national identity, and nation building. Amaju Melvin Pinnick, President, Nigeria Football Federation For a country where heroes are hardly celebrated and epic football is almost forgotten, this book takes the reader on an enthralling historical excursion. Very well researched and most lucidly presented, it is a must- have for everyone in the local game. Indeed, finally, here is a keepsake for those who have yearned for an enchanting reservoir of facts on Nigeria's football history from the turn of the century to 1960. Dr. Larry Izamoje – Chairman/CEO, Sports Radio 88.9 Brila FM, Nigeria The most detailed and certainly the best written account of the pre-Independence histo...
