The Lille goalkeeper’s parent has passed away and it is
the reason for his opting out of the Nigeria game against
the Taifa Stars
Vincent Enyeama’s mother has passed away it has
emerged, hours after Nigeria coach Sunday Oliseh told
media that the goalkeeper opted out of the Super Eagles
ahead of their trip to Tanzania without an excuse.
The 101-capped Enyeama posted a message on his
Instagram page on Wednesday afternoon apologizing to
Nigeria fans but fell short of stating the reason for his
absence.
However, it has been learnt that the goalkeeper’s parent
died and it was the reason for his painfully written
apology on Instagram.
“So sorry I won't make it out there to wear this shirt,”
Enyeama wrote alongside an artist’s impression of him in
a Nigeria jersey.
“So sorry that I won't be standing there singing the
anthem of my sweet NIGERIA. #WEARENIGERIA.
“I wish that this darkness didn't come in daylight. I wish
that I could turn back the hand of time. I wish,I just
wish that I could take away this pain. Let the rain wash
away this pain,” the bereaved player concluded.
From me and my family I want to pour out my heart to
enyeama please take heart we really love you my mum is
from akwa ibom is just like I lost a relative also...thanks
for your services..May God give you the strength to
overcome this lost.
