" When the whole board was changed, they said they increased my money to N250, 000 on paper but not changed. " Players are being paid N500, 000, to N700,000 while I was getting a peanut. " I was really struggling and was not easy for me", he said. Vanzekin was part of the Flying Eagles team to the 2005 U20 FIFA World Cup in Netherlands and 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
