Come support us by coming to watch the game, Ahmed Musa Urged President Tinubu

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been urged by Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa to attend the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, or AFCON, in Ivory Coast instead of continuing to watch the team on television.

Musa made this statement on behalf of the Super Eagles players on Wednesday during the team's Zoom meeting with Sen. John Owan Enoh, the Minister of Sports Development.

Musa stated: “We have a message that we are going to send to you [Enoh] to the President.

“We don't want him to watch the game on TV anymore, we want him over here [Ivory Coast] to come and cheer us together. So this is our own message to the President.”

Enoh responded, “The president will come. I can assure you the president will come. He has told me when he wants to come and my prayer is that gradually we are going to get to the point where the President can come. He will come. I will bring the president, he will come,” he assured.

Musa then said: “Finally, we really appreciate your words of encouragement to the team, thank you.”
