Unleashing the Roar: Victor Osimhen and the Unspoken Heroes of the Super Eagles at AFCON

Did you notice that all attention on the ongoing AFCON competition in Côte d’Ivoire is on Victor Osimhen, and only a few people talk about other players in the Super Eagles squad? One of the reasons for these accolades is that Osimhen came to AFCON as the best player in Africa. He was the 2022/2023 Italian Serie A Best player and one of the best strikers in the world today.

So, it is with life as in the wild. The lion is not as big as the elephant, but the lion is the most feared. That is what also happens in sports. Every sportsperson’s gravitas is how successful they are.

Given the above, let us occasionally individually ask, “Why are people negatively or positively talking about me?” When you get the answers, kindly go to the drawing board to build on the positive side and delete or rewrite the opposing side.

As we face the Ivory Coast this evening, may Nigeria give us reasons to smile and say, “Well done, great ambassadors. Go, Super Eagles! Go!

Grace and peace!!!
