Former Nigerian international Sunday Oliseh has called for higher wages and better treatment of players in the Nigeria Professional Football League, arguing that such improvements are needed to curb the outflow of talent.

Speaking with Brila FM, Oliseg emphasized that adequate compensation for home‑grown players is crucial for the growth of Nigerian football, noting that low pay and poor conditions remain ongoing problems.

“Look, football is a business, it’s what he uses to pay his bills, feed his family plan his future.”

“Even if it’s 1,000 dollars, if you multiply it to Naira it’s a big money. When we were playing they was never one month that they owed us it might be small but we were paid on time.”

“People built family with that money with consistent savings if you want players to stay in Nigeria ensure the league is conducive and okay.”

“Don’t blame people to try to feed their family put them in your shoes. If you don’t feed your wife she will complain,” Oliseh said.
