Super Eagles Captain Ahmed Musa issued a heartfelt plea to his fans and supporters on Monday, condemning the cyberbullying directed at teammate Alex Iwobi. Musa emphasised the gravity of cyberbullying in a recent social media post, describing it as both a violation of decency and a serious crime.
Musa highlighted the irony of claiming unity in football while engaging in behaviour that undermines individual players. He emphasised that, while losing a game is undoubtedly difficult, blaming a single player for the team's shortcomings is both unfair and unjust. Musa reiterated the fundamental principle that victories and losses are the result of collective efforts, with each team member contributing to the overall performance.
Musa praised Alex Iwobi's dedication and efforts on the pitch in his message, and urged fans to channel their support constructively rather than spreading negativity. He emphasised the importance of expressing genuine affection and encouragement to players, especially during difficult times.
The captain urged fans to support one another and stand united, regardless of the outcome of the game. He thanked the team for its continued support and urged everyone to rally behind their players in a positive and united manner.
Musa's message, as captain of the Nigerian national team, serves as a reminder to the football community about the importance of respect, unity, and support. His call to end cyberbullying of Alex Iwobi reflects a broader commitment to fostering an inclusive and encouraging sports culture.
