Joseph Yobo yesterday evening announced his resignation as a player for the super eagles. Yobo after the 2-0 lost match to France, told reporters that it was time for him to go face his family.


"It was a bitter-sweet moment for me but I think it is time to focus on my family. It has been a long road. I never thought that I’d be here because I missed the last six games of the season through injury. They gave me an opportunity but it is unfortunate what happened. I gave my all,” he said. Yobo follows in the step of Kanu Nwankwo who announced his retirement after the World cup in 2010. The 33 year old defender said he would like to concentrate on club football now.
