Financial expert and social media personality Gehgeh has mocked the Super Eagles following Nigeria’s Under-17 women’s team winning the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, saying the young players have achieved what the senior men’s team has yet to accomplish.
In a video shared online, Gehgeh congratulated the female players but questioned why the Super Eagles had continued to fall short of major international honours despite featuring several prominent footballers.
He mentioned current and former Nigerian stars, including Victor Osimhen, Victor Boniface, Ahmed Musa and Austin “Jay-Jay” Okocha, while expressing disappointment with the senior team’s trophy record.
Gehgeh also challenged the Super Eagles to reconsider their eagle emblem if they could not deliver major trophies for the country.
“If una know say una no go win anything for Nigeria, make una remove that eagle wey dey Super Eagles and put Urobo fowl there because it is a shame to Nigerians,” he said.
His remarks followed the achievement of Nigeria’s Under-17 women, whose championship victory added another major milestone to the country’s football history and drew attention to the contrasting fortunes of the women’s youth team and the senior men’s side.
