Super Eagles players, Victor Osimhen and Alex Iwobi have caused a frenzy online for snubbing a journalist.
A video just emerged showing the entrance of Nigerian Super Eagles players in Nigeria following their defeat in the AFCON finals in Ivory Coast.
The viral video captures the responses of Victor Osimhen, a striker, and Alexander Iwobi, a midfielder.
The journalist approached Iwobi first, asking for a remark, but he ignored him and walked away without saying anything.
Shortly after, the journalist spotted Osimhen and rushed him in hopes of gaining an interview.
He asked the footballer: ‘How does it feel to be back home?”
However, a visibly angry Osimhen bravely warned the journalist to leave him alone. He said in vernacular: “Make Una free me abeg.”
