The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) led the encomium on Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr, who clocked 64 on Thursday.
Rohr was born in Mannheim, south-west Germany, in 1953.
Barely 48 years after exiting the FIFA World Cup, Nigerians were pretty much pleased with the German tactician.
They joined the NFF in extending warm wishes to the manager.
