Super Eagles assistant coach Imama Amapakabo said he’s satisfied with his achievement as a coach in 2019.
Amapakabo was in charge of home base Super Eagles failed to qualify for next year’s Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) in Cameroon following 3-4 aggregate defeat to Togo.
The disappointment was followed by other defeats in the WAFU cup.
The National U-23 team also failed in this year’s U-23 AFCON which was meant to be the qualifiers for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics under his watch, but despite these disappointments, Imama believes 2019 has been great for him.
“It is the best year for me,” Amapakabo told Brila FM.
“Imama Amapakabo had the opportunity that many others had never had. Assistant coach of the Super Eagles, head coach of CHAN Eagles, head coach of U-23, whatever the results are, all glory to God I think it’s a blessed year for me.
“I am a coach and I try to do my best at all times and get results as much as I possibly can.
“Like I say all the time I’m like a gravedigger, the day I win games I dig four shovels, the day I lose I dig 200.”
The NFF had since failed to renew his contract as the head coach of the home base Super Eagles and the national U-23 team.
However, it is unclear if he will continue with his role with the Super Eagles main team.
