Nigerian legend Austin Jay Jay Okocha has urged his nephew, Alex Iwobi, who suffered cyberbullying following Nigeria’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations final 2-1 loss to Ivory Coast last Sunday, to keep going.
Taking to his Instagram account on Tuesday, Okocha, who said God is good, also prayed for Nigeria and the people who can only hate and see nothing good in others.
The former Paris Saint-Germain midfielder said, “I pray for my country, Nigeria and the people that can only hate and see nothing good in others when effort counts for nothing; treat people the way you want them to treat you; all we have is this life is each other.
“We love you #alexanderiwobi, and we keep going no matter what they say; the Lord is good all the time, and we trust that he will be done in our lives, amen.”
Newssphere reports that the final AFCON 2023 has seen Iwobi experience a routine of unpleasant remarks hurled at him.
The Fulham star confirmed leaving social media after the AFCON final match.
