The former Super Eagles midfielder has been a stern critic of Keshi’s selection procedures and has never hidden his concern over the gaffer’s system and types of players invited to the team.
Lawal had on Thursday said that Keshi ‘needs to change’, referring to the 52-year-old’s style of inviting players to the national team. And following the announcement of the 24-invited players for the Sudan games, Lawal has gone on to say the list only shows Keshi has only been experimenting.
“I don’t know what the Coach thinks, but the way I see it, we keep experimenting. I don’t know when we will stop experimenting with players because I believe that if your team isn’t working, you change your style but it seems like he wants to hold the country to ransom,” he said.
“The selection process shouldn’t be restricted to a group of players, but should be made open. Nigeria is not just some individuals, but for everybody, but I just don’t understand, I just don’t understand,” he said with a disappointed tone.
