Later in the day, the 33-year-old goalie took to his Instagram account to say he's sorry to Nigerians after he announced his retirement from the National team on Thursday October 8.
''Who would be happy after just burying your mother that carried you nine months in the womb and suffered for you day and night, jumping on a six-hour plane to represent your fatherland only to be stripped of the captainship and humiliated at the first meeting in front of everyone after serving the nation for 13 years? I have honoured about 99 per cent of the national team’s invitations, no matter where the match is played. Anyway, my decision to quit the national team is for the best interest of the nation. I don’t want to be the reason that Nigerian football house is divided. I want Nigeria to get back up to where it belongs. It’s a professional decision made for the blessing of the nation. I am very sorry for being the reason that all these things are happening. God bless Nigeria,'' he said captioning a photo of himself below.
According reports the meeting which held in Germany with NFF's senior officials on Saturday was to convince Enyeama into changing his mind about his sudden exit from the Super Eagles.
