Super Falcons and Barcelona forward, Asisat Oshoala (MON) is facing a barrage of attacks from Nigerians, even as she has apologized for the tweet about Nigeria being a 'jungle'.

The four-time CAF African Women's Footballer of the Year recipient had on Sunday night lent her voice to the #EndSARS protest by tweeting.

However, she apologised on Monday after she was criticised for the Sunday, October 11 tweet, explaining that the remark did not refer to Nigeria at large but was in relation to police brutality.

Oshoala wrote,

“I made a tweet yesterday about Nigeria being a jungle. I did that in relation to the #EndSARS protest and not the country at large.

“I was clearly saying Nigeria isn’t for the weak, you have to be really strong and very confident…Don’t get it twisted, I love this country as y’all do hence reason for my outburst.

“I LOVE THIS COUNTRY AND WILL NOT RUN AWAY.”

In another tweet, she wrote

“I LOVE NIGERIA, NIGERIA HAS GIVEN ME EVERYTHING even if it wasn’t in the easiest way, that is why I will also GIVE MY ALL in my own little way …make it EASIER for the next generation. NA ALL OF US GATHER LOVE THIS COUNTRY but NOT HAPPY.”


Oshoala has been very vocal since the renewed EndSARS protests hit Nigeria last week.

On many occasions, the former African Women Footballer of the Year backed the protesters while condemning harassment of Nigerians by the police.

The fools on the platform weren't thinking right. Don't you know that continued protest with evidence worldwide, comes with looting, fighting, killings etc.  You guys are here ranting under the roof of your parents when innocent once are out there on the street risking their valuable time and life's fighting what BUHARI government had already addressed.  IDIOTS.

Though they say the best answer to a fool is silence,but keeping silent to fools like you makes you feel that you are making sense.  The revolution is on and the youths are winning battle after battle,but we wont stop until the war is won. You can keep guessing where we are communicating from,thats your headache,but fools like you wont derail this movement. OLODO.

There is no need for any appology. Nigeria is now a failed State with no leadership.
