The Super Eagles of Nigeria may boycott their November 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sierra Leone. This is based on comments by some Super Eagles on their social media handle.
The players had taken to their social media handles to express their dissatisfaction over the shooting of protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate on Tuesday.
Super Eagles midfielder, John Ogu in a statement on Twitter said, “The Politicians should ask their children to represent Nigeria in the next @NGSuperEagles @thenff upcoming games. I’m so devastated like right now.”
Kelechi Iheanacho of Leicester city said “God is watching. It will end in praise. We will keep speaking up,”
Another Super Eagle said “We can’t be representing a country that kills our brothers and sisters. This killings and unrest must stop or we stay away.”
