President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the former coach of the Super Eagles, Christian Chukwu, on his 70th birthday.

The President in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina joined sports lovers, family and friends to celebrate the skillful footballer who captained the national team to lift its first African Nations Cup title in 1980.

President Buhari rejoiced with the multi-talented and disciplined player on the auspicious period of turning a septuagenarian, affirming that his contributions to the development of sports in Nigeria will always attract attention, particularly making the country proud by providing technical leadership for other national teams like those of Lebanon and Kenya.

He also noted, with commendation, the efforts of the former Captain of Rangers International, Enugu, in strengthening the local league, which has over the years been the major feeder of the national team and produced players that have featured in some of the best teams and championships in the world.

The President prays for improved health, strength, and longer life for the former Super Eagles captain.
