I started in 1994.

I started watching World Cup in 1982, though, so it's not an age thing.

Just not interested enough.

I didnt watch the last 3 or 4 AFCONs, either.

Honestly, I'm not so sure I'll watch this one. That won't stop me from wishing Osimhen well, though. I hope he wins the golden boot. A cup for SE will be a welcome surprise.

I have very vague memories of Senegal '92. Tunisia '94 was was the first Nations cup I watched consciously and we won cool.
South Africa '96 and Burkina Faso '98 were a total blur as we did not participate.
Nigeria/Ghana 2000 will forever remain in our memories as a cancelled penalty shootout robbed us of the trophy to Cameroon sad.
Mali 2002 (Mali Deux mille Deux) remains my best of all the AFCON, we won bronze medal with just 5 goals through out the tournament grin
Tunisia 2004, Egypt 2006 back to back bronze
Ghana 2008 crashed out
Angola 2010 bronze
Equatorial Guinea/Gabon 2012 blur as we no qualify
South Africa 2013 We won🏆
Equatorial Guinea 2015, Gabon 2017 total blur as we no gree qualify (it's like our spirit no gel with those 2 countries)
Egypt 2019 bronze
Cameroon 2021 crashed out
Cote D'Ivoire 2023 - only time we tell

Total of 16 tournaments, I've witnessed so far. Some Indomie pikins cannot relate

I watched the world cup match between Nigeria and India. India wiped Nigeria 99 goals until the Nigerian number 9 rose up to the occasion by scoring from a very dangerous free kick. The goal is my favourite Nigerian goal in a major tournament.

Well I have nothing much to say about that only an advice to you all: Read your bible more, stay away from sin and get more intimate with God.
