LOL! Any small goal opportunity he misses in a match will become the headline the next day, with wicked adjectives like SELFISH, ARROGANCE etc.
They will start counting the number of matches he has played without a goal

But you did not condemn it when it was used. let us no be hypocrites we have seen too many gutter language here ....did Whiz kid not use exactly the same language on pastors? How many of una talk?

youthsinitiativ:


Illiteracy was behind his initial not very well thought through outburst. Perhaps he failed to understand the news report hence, his recanting and apologies.

Is it a crime to emulate or better Maradona's feat at Napoli?

It's not a crime. So it's ok to report fake news as punch did right? Why not adress the error by punch as well?

I pray this guy quick temper will not ruin him. In as much as I like him a lot,I honestly can't tolerate his short temper. He needs to learn how to manage his anger.

The earlier he retrace his steps the better.

Tell me which player the press has make or mar his career. Naija press for that matter

Do u know that many Italians can misinterpret that to mean he wants to be better than their god Maradona?

It's not a crime, but it's a crime for them reporting it when he never uttered a statement like that. Such statement will put undue pressure on him which may culminate to his failure at his new club.

"Else na thunder go fire Una"
And not :
Thunder go fire Una. I wonder why the apology.
Dude probably feels his success is mainly fueled by the media. Yes they play a role but na hard work place u where u dey. Media will beg to book a bit of ur time if u well placed through your hard work. Abeg retract that apology jare

Goalnaldo:
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen have taken to Twitter to apologise to Nigerian news outlet Punch for the language he used in replying them few days ago.

Recall that the newspaper published a post where the new Napoli recruit was alleged to have made a statement of emulating club legend Diego Maradona of which he debunked by writing:

"I never said such a thing, y’all copy paste journalist just like to fabricate lies, since the passing of my late father I haven’t grant any interview whatsoever, stop this nonsense else na thunder go fire una."

He wrote via Twitter late on Sunday night:

Apology Accepted

OTayobami:


I am not understanding please elaborate

Even the apology fell short. He's an uncouth kid.

DREAMZZZ:
The hype on this guy is too much I pity am if he don’t live up to expectations

The Italian Mafia and racist are waiting for him

Lol....what has Oshimen achieved in football that Maradona should emulate him? You just used the phrase "inferiority complex" wrongly.

shawnfamous:
what if he never had it in mind Emulating anyone and just want to be him self?? I see no reason for u calling him an illiterate when a News media is trying to make off from him...

Mobile punch actually cited a foreign source. So if actually he's having any issue, it should be with the foreign media outlet that initially put out the article.

Don't mind them. Human beings are so fickle. The same people blaming Punch for lying are now blaming him for apologising.

It wasn't a fake news. Punch cited a Source. That was why are backlash was on him cos a foreign media outlet posted the article and he didn't make any comment until punch cited the article.

You don't need to apologize Victor. Na strong thunder go fire all fake news Carriers and their cohort

That is the more reason we all gat to think before speaking or typing. Is a good thing he came back to his senses to apologise, beside punch online statement wasn't that harmful enough to tarnish his image or football career. Well everybody get their own sha.
