Former national coach, James Peters has said that Nigeria Football Federation’s appointment of Florence Omagbemi, Pepertua Nkwocha and Ann Agumanu-Chijiene as coaches of the Super Falcons will not reverse the fortunes of the national women team.

Peters, who has coached the Super Eagles, Flying Eagles and the Super Falcons, said the three ex-internationals do not have the experience to carry the team.

“The NFF did not seek expert advice or wider consultation, if they had done that we would have told them differently on how to go about handing the reign of the side to the former players.

“Those picked for the onerous job are not experienced and knowledgeable I think there is absolute need for experience.

“Even the proposed expatriate coach will fare no better in the circumstance as the best approach would have been to elect an old hand in the land to hold the reign for at least one or two competitive years to midwife and tutor the ex-internationals who will then take over the team thereafter.

“Women envy and jealous each other and now you pick one of them to head the coaching crew there is bound to be problem,” Peters told supersports.com.

However, Super Falcons captain Evelyn Nwabuoku said the women should be give a chance to prove themselves.

“It is not a bad idea to have the ex-internationals as coaches. It is a chance for them to contribute the experience they have gained over the years.

“Let us hope and pray that they will be able to put the team back into top flight,”
