AFCON 2023: I’m not impressed with your performance — Pres. Tinubu tells Super Eagles
President Bola Tinubu has said he is not impressed with the performance of the Super Eagles of Nigeria at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire.
The president who spoke with the Minister of Sports, John Enoh, urged the team to put their best foots forward in order to bring home the cup.
Enoh disclosed this in a zoom meeting with the players on Wednesday night, January 24.
According to the minister, “I had a meeting with the President yesterday. I went to the villa for something else, the President cornered me and said we (Eagles) managed to qualify and I said that’s how we are going to keep going until I’m we win the tournament.
He said that I should tell the players that he wasn’t too impressed with the last match but he knows that now that they are off the group stages, they are going to impress him more.
That’s what the President told me and it means that the President is actually watching your matches.
