Dr. Victor has been a wonderful leader. In spite of his busy schedule he is still playing the royalty game. You are a precept! Thank you for structuring Team Nigeria on Chess.com. The game is in the mind. Will you ever give me the chance to play with you, second time? Name the board boss and push the pawn, I have my knight in preview. I am always loyal. One love.

The new Super Admins and Admins have to join the World League HQ to keep abreast of all the happenings and discussions relating to the Chess.com communal Nation Team discussions.

The Leadership team of Team Nigeria now has a new look

Super Admin(s): Jeanjarrgh, platolag, jmafeni
Admin(s): sylinto, fanti, ODBAM, mmerson

Whilst most of the members are new to such role and indeed are filled with trepedation of their responsibilities, i will be on hand to answer/advice them in relation to any queries or issues on how to run the team.

I will not have the same time i had before to run this team and it was time i moved on and let other people have a run at leading this great team.

It  has been a wonderful 12 months of bringing this mighty phoenix of a team out of the ashes it was buried under previously and place it in 2nd position in the current World League 2011.

Thank you

Dr Victor Odunaiya

Do i have some fee paying members willing to step up to the plate?!

Super-Admin* 2 (Must be fee paying members)

Admin   (Do not need to be fee paying members)

My clock is running out here and soon i will lose my status as a fee paying member as my life has just got a lot more demanding and chess has to go on the back burner for now.

So kindly put yourselves toward for some role in this great team as i re-shovel the leadership of the team and give way to fresh people with fresh ideas for WL 2012.

I will always be a mentor and adviser in the back ground if anyone needs me and i will always partake of the team matches but i can longer lead this great team as it is quite time resource intensive

Thanks for the comments gentlemen, now we need willing but skillful leaders to join ranks with Jeanjarrph please feel free to put nominees forward so that i can upgrade their status unfortunately for some these candidates must be fee paying members!

Dear Victor,

Many thanks for your sacrifices and great leadership.  It is certainly not easy to carry out the assignment you did amidst many other conflicting priorities.  We will all really miss you and hope that someone younger and with more time and energy will step up to the plate to make Nigeria proud on this site.

Dr. Jerome Mafeni
