The Nigerian footballer, Victor Emenayo, who was accused of falsifying his age in Azerbaijan has come out to defend himself that he is not older than he claims. The country’s media had called the forward a ‘cheat’ adding that the 23-yr-old Nigerian player is over 40 years. The controversy surrounding the real age of Emenayo, who plies his tread with top league club, Shahdagh Qusar FK in Azerbaijan has been over the media in the past few days.
The player, who claims to be 23-years-old looks very much older than the age he carries in his passport. The striker, who spent some time in Uganda with SC Villa, moved to Azerbaijan last year and was accused of falsifying his age with some journalists saying he is 40-years-old Emenayo has come out to defend himself by saying he is really 23 years old and has posted a photo of his international passport to backup his claims. He said he did not lie about his age and that he was born in 1993 as stated in his passport.
He added

, “How can anybody claim or ascertain that I am not 23-years-old merely by my looks? My passport says I was born in 1993 and no one can dispute that. “Are they my parents to say I was not born in the year on my passport?”
