Lucas Pablo, the Team Liaison Officer (TLO) attached to the Golden\u00a0Eaglets, has enlivened the Nigerian camp so much so that he was\u00a0christened ‘Osuofia’ for his comic relief to the players and officials.<\/p>\n
Pablo, a Chilean, studied journalism with specialization in film\u00a0production and he\u2019s loved by all for always having a word for every\u00a0occasion.\u00a0But jokes apart, Osuofia a brings a puritanical devotion to the job\u00a0and has largely contributed o the success of the Golden Eaglets so far\u00a0at Chile 2015. He is a jack of all trade and master of all for that\u00a0matters.<\/p>\n
“God in his infinity wisdom pushed Lucas to us at this tournament\u00a0because he has been so helpful in sorting out so many problems for us\u00a0here,” noted a Golden Eaglets\u2019 official.<\/p>\n
‘Osuofia’ who is also called ‘Mr. Perfect’ said he was told to expect a\u00a0demanding schedule from Nigeria when he was appointed as the TMO.<\/p>\n

The fine run of Golden Eaglets\u00a0 at the FIFA U-17 World Cup Chile 2015\u00a0is full of fun off the field thanks largely to the presence of a\u00a0carbon copy of Nigeria\u2019s actor and comedian, Nkem Owoh, popularly\u00a0known as Osuofia.
