Super Eagles players have come together to support Alex Iwobi amidst cyberbullying he faced online.
Following Nigeria’s 2 – 1 defeat to Ivory Coast in the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, the Fulham midfielder was targeted with online abuse by some fans. As a result, Alex deleted most of the posts on his Instagram page and even contemplated retiring from international football.
Several of his colleagues including Victor Osimhen, Samuel Chukwueze, Kenneth Omeruo, Joe Aribo, William Troost-Ekong, and others have taken to their respective social media accounts to send a message of support and urge fans to do better.
The message read: “We win together, We lose together, We are all one, some of our fans should do better.”
