Nigerian Fans Boo Osimhen Over Angry Exchange With Lookman Despite Big AFCON Win

Nigerian football fans have taken Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen to task following his heated confrontation with teammate Ademola Lookman during Nigeria’s emphatic 4-0 win over Mozambique in the Africa Cup of Nations round of 16 on Monday. The Galatasaray forward was visibly furious in the 63rd minute after Lookman failed to pass the ball to him despite Osimhen being unmarked. Cameras caught the striker angrily remonstrating with the Atalanta winger, moments after pulling away from captain Wilfred Ndidi. Osimhen was seen pointing aggressively at Lookman while shouting, before ending the outburst in pidgin with, “No try am again,” meaning “do not try that again.” The reaction surprised many observers, especially as Lookman had already played a key role in Osimhen’s performance, setting him up directly for one goal and also contributing to another chance finished by Akor Adams. A player with no discipline. He does this all the time shouting at an important member of the squad just because the other player is calm-headed. This is one of the attitude issues Chelsea PR have complained about. pic.twitter.com/JFknpRqspM — SHAYEE 𒀭 (@tier_1st) January 5, 2026 Shortly after the incident, Osimhen requested to be substituted and was replaced by Moses Simon, leaving the pitch to audible boos from sections of the crowd. The episode quickly ignited debate on social media platform X, where fans questioned Osimhen’s temperament even in the midst of a dominant team display. Social media influencer Emma Ik Umeh (@emmaikumeh) wrote, “Victor Osimhen had a quarrel with his teammate Lookman. Crazy, but this same Lookman provided him with an assist for his second goal earlier. The guy should f**k off with this nonsense attitude. It’s so annoying.” Godwin Wilson dismissed the behaviour as “Very silly behaviour as usual. Nonsense.” Oladapo Omolade added, “I really don’t understand why the guy is behaving like that… he really needs to calm down on that unnecessary attitude.” Victor Adeboje described the scene as “Very irritating,” while Edwin Uka reacted, “Can you imagine the attitude he displayed there? Mtcheeeew.” ID (@oluwatunmilara1) questioned the timing of the outburst, saying, “What’s the meaning of this one? The team is winning and playing well. Why do you want to spoil it with this temper tantrum?” Bigrated (@the_boy_rated) blamed arrogance, writing, “The guy too proud, he thinks he’s better than everyone in the team.” Stanley Ogb (@stanogbo97) summed up the sentiment, stating, “Very unprofessional of Osimhen…He got some attitude problem right there.” Despite the backlash, Osimhen finished the match with two goals, while Lookman recorded two assists and added a goal of his own as Nigeria secured their fourth straight victory of the tournament to book a place in the quarter-finals. The Super Eagles are set to face either Algeria or DR Congo in the last eight as they continue their quest for a first AFCON title since 2013. Getting booed off by fans, shameful.Osimhen really needs to fix this terrible attitude of his.pic.twitter.com/n6ThoNX7RQ — 乄 (@victorKvng_) January 5, 2026

Super Eagles Storm AFCON 2025 Quarter-Finals With 4–0 Win Over Mozambique

Nigeria’s Super Eagles cruised into the quarter-finals of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with an emphatic 4–0 win over Mozambique in their Round of 16 encounter in Fès. Fresh from a flawless group stage where they won all three matches to finish top of Group C, the Eagles wasted no time asserting their dominance. Mozambique, who reached the knockout phase for the first time after qualifying as one of the best third-placed teams from Group F, found it difficult to contain Nigeria’s speed and fluid attacking play. The breakthrough came in the 20th minute when Ademola Lookman finished off a move created by Akor Adams. Nigeria tightened their grip on the match five minutes later as Victor Osimhen doubled the lead. Shortly after the restart, Lookman turned provider again, teeing up Osimhen for his second goal in the 47th minute to put the game firmly beyond reach. Akor Adams capped Nigeria’s commanding display in the 75th minute with the fourth goal, sealing a comprehensive victory. Wilfred Ndidi led the team from midfield, partnering Frank Onyeka and Alex Iwobi, while Stanley Nwabali returned between the posts. The defensive line of Bright Osayi-Samuel, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey and Bruno Onyemaechi ensured Mozambique posed little threat throughout the contest. Head coach Chelle rotated his squad in the second half, introducing Paul Onuachu and Samuel Chukwueze for Akor Adams and Lookman, while Tom Dele-Bashiru and Onyedika replaced Onyeka and Ndidi. Moses Simon also came on for Osimhen as Nigeria comfortably managed the closing stages. By the 80th minute, the Super Eagles had recorded eight shots on target, with Mozambique failing to register a single effort that troubled Nwabali. The result sends Nigeria into the quarter-finals in confident fashion as they continue their push for a fourth AFCON crown. Their next opponents will be decided from the clash between Algeria and Congo DR.

Paris Court Sentences Ten for Online Harassment of Brigitte Macron

A Paris court has sentenced ten people for online harassment targeting Brigitte Macron, the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, after they spread false and abusive claims about her personal life and identity. The group, consisting of eight men and two women, was found to have deliberately posted degrading and insulting content on social media. Their posts included conspiracy theories about Brigitte Macron’s gender and sexuality, as well as critical remarks about the age difference between her and the president. The court ruled that the actions were intended to cause harm. Most of the convicted received suspended prison sentences of up to eight months, along with penalties such as mandatory educational programs and temporary suspensions of their social media accounts. One defendant was taken into custody immediately after failing to appear in court. Some of the harassment reflected earlier claims by internet personalities Natacha Rey and Amandine Roy, who previously alleged that Brigitte Macron did not exist and was in fact the president’s brother living under a false identity. Although they were convicted of slander in 2024, an appeals court later overturned the verdict, ruling that claims about a gender transition do not automatically constitute an attack on someone’s honour. The Macrons have since appealed the decision to France’s highest court. Brigitte Macron’s lawyer, Jean Ennochi, said the most important part of the ruling lies in the preventive measures, including educational programs and account suspensions. During the trial, her daughter, Tiphaine Auzière, testified that the sustained online abuse had affected her mother’s health and daily life, and even led to teasing of her grandchildren at school. She explained that Brigitte Macron had become constantly aware of how her appearance and actions could be targeted by conspiracy theorists.

EFCC Reaffirms Yahaya Bello Innocent Until Proven Guilty, Court To Decide Outcome

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has stressed that former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello remains innocent until proven guilty by a court of law. The commission’s statement comes amid public debate over Bello’s announcement to contest the Kogi Central senatorial seat in 2027. He is currently standing trial before Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court in Maitama, Abuja, over allegations of misappropriating ₦80.2 billion of Kogi State funds during his tenure as governor. Speaking on Monday during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show, EFCC Director of Public Affairs, Wilson Uwuajeren, explained that criminal prosecutions in Nigeria require time, involving the presentation of evidence and witnesses before the court. He emphasized that the outcome of Bello’s trial is entirely for the judiciary to determine. “The trial is ongoing. We are presenting witnesses and evidence, but it is not the commission that will decide the matter — the court will,” Uwuajeren said. “Our responsibility is to prosecute the charges faithfully and ensure that both the prosecution and the defense receive justice.” He further noted that the Nigerian Constitution presumes anyone standing trial to be innocent until proven guilty, adding that Bello’s standing within his political party is separate from the charges before the court. “Whatever is happening within his party is the party’s business. EFCC is not a political party; we are focused solely on enforcing the law. Nothing has gone wrong in the handling of this case, and we remain committed to ensuring justice,” Uwuajeren said. The EFCC reaffirmed its commitment to prosecuting the case diligently while reiterating that Bello’s legal innocence remains intact until the court delivers a verdict.
