PRINCEWILL ESARA
Yes football was first played in Calabar, but not in St. Patrick's College. It was first played in Hope Waddell Training Institution at about 1903. It was introduced by a British teacher in that school. St. Patrick's College only came into existence in 1930, many years after football had been introduced to Nigeria.
