AFCON 2025: Adams Akor’s Mother Hospitalised in Morocco

Mother of Super Eagles’ stricker, Adams Akor is currently receiving treatments in an hospital in Morocco.

Akor, who scored his first AFCON goal against Mozambique, confirmed this development in a post match interview on Monday.

Asked about the team’s focus ahead of their quarterfinal game, the Sevilla of Spain said; “I’m very focussed. I have my family here. My mum is here, though in the hospital but I’m really focussed.”

Akor Adams scored his first AFCON goal and his third for Nigeria, when he hammered into the roof of the net for goal number four, after a textbook pass by Ademola Lookman.

Nigeria will slug it out with either Algeria or Democratic Republic of Congo in the quarterfinal tie in Marrackech on Saturday.
