Arise TV anchor Rufai Oseni has lambasted footballer Victor Osimhen for his outburst at teammate Adebayo Lookman during Nigeria’s dominant 4–0 win over Mozambique in the Africa Cup of Nations on Monday night, January 5.
The unexpected exchange, which unfolded in full view of fans and spectatorrs, quickly became a talking point after the match.
Reacting to the outburst, Rufai slammed Osimhen for behaving in such manner.
‘’Theysaid Osimhen said he wants to be going to Turkey, what nonsense! What nonsense attitude! What Ademola Lookman has achieved, you too have achieved.
“You are both African Footballer of the Year. Why are you proud? Put your hand down! The only way Osimhen should be allowed back into that team is for him to apologise to his teammates.
“They should rent a private jet for him to go to Turkey! Are you God? If he goes and they the Nations cup behind him, which I want them to, that is when he will know that you are not indispensable.”
