We ‘ll Eat Nigeria Like Super Fried Chickens, Ivorian Eboue Boasts by Nobody: 5:41pm On Jan 31, 2013
Galatasary of Turkey and Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire defender, Emmanuel Eboue, has
boasted that his country will eat the Super Eagles of Nigeria like ‘super fried
chicken’ when they meet on Sunday in one of the quarter finals matches in the
ongoing Africa Cup of Nations holding in South Africa.


Eboue, who through his twitter handle @TheRealEboue, congratulated Nigeria
shortly after the Super Eagles defeated Ethiopia to reach the knock-out stages but
was quick to caution Nigeria not to celebrate to much as the Elephants are coming
for them.
Eboue


The former Arsenal player maintained that Eagles were no match to his side. His
first tweet read: “Congrat to Nigeria. Don’t celebrate too much cuz we are coming
for you. We are going to eat you like fufu”.
Minutes later, the Ivorian defender tweeted again: “Sorry guys, point of correction.
We are going to eat Nigeria like #SuperFriedChickens.”
From then on, it has been an unending tweet tirade on not just the Eagles as a team
but Nigeria in its entirety, a situation that has seen some twitter users arguing that
Eboue was being impersonated.


Some of the tweets read:

“@TheRealEboueI see ppl saying I hv pride by saying we wud eat Nigeria like fried
chickens, it’s not pride guys, it’s hardwork & passion 4 my country”

“@TheRealEboue: In Nigeria team, some of your best strikers like martins, yakubu &
odewinge are not in the team. Why? No peace, passion, & humility”

“@TheRealEboue: Ivory has some of the top players in d world, and when our
country calls. We go. We go back home and play. Nobody is a big boy. So shut it”

“@TheRealEboue: A country where mikel obi is your best player & captain . Out of
150million people. You sure have a problem super chickens”

“@TheRealEboue: With all due respect 2 mikel, he is a good player but not Okocha,
Samson,yekini,Oliseh, adepoju. Your football association is a joke”

“@TheRealEboue: When keshi was in Togo, he dropped adebayor. He is in Nigeria
and drops the best player. He is a manger he should be able to work on their ego”

@TheRealEboue: I have said enough on this matter. I was so angry. Speak to me
when your national television can broadcast the game. Have a good day

@TheRealEboue:Keep fooling yourself and calling yourselfs the giant of africa. You
are nothing but the soil of Africa we all work on now.

@TheRealEboue: You guys are jokers. Your institutions are comedy clubs. You have
so many resources & man power yet you are always falling short.

@TheRealEboue:Oh sorry Nigeria, I even heard your country owns the first African
television and you cannot even televise the game to the masses

@TheRealEboue: Drogba, Yaya,kolo, Zakora, gervinho,KaLou, and myself and all
other players. We are all the same. One unity and family. Country comes 1st

@TheRealEboue: I have said enough on this matter. I was so angry. Speak to me
when your national television can broadcast the game. Have a good day

@TheRealEboue: If we don’t beat you in the game, it means you are lucky. But trust
me, we are going to deal with you so much , you would be eating grass

@TheRealEboue: Why don’t you speak to your NFA that cant grow a good soccer
academy & produce players to last for a decade instead of new faces every week

@TheRealEboue: Blame me, i don’t care. I would say my mind. You can even blame
me Ghana can show the game to the masses and NTA cannot . Cover your face
TheRealEboue: My last word for Nigerians . Do not cry for me , cry for yourselves. In
the true spirit of sport , I love you all . Don’t get too emotional.”

Ok sir.

Of course I wont even respond if someone insulted my parents, I assume they can defend their self if the need arises.
By the way I didn't respond to you calling me a fool.

k2039: Ok sir.

Of course I wont even respond if someone insulted my parents just as I didn't respond to you calling me a fool.

People like you are a big dissapointment.

Syenite:

How?.

Logically you calling me a fool didn't even move or change me, so why should I respond to someone insulting my parents or family when I know we are all entitled to our individual opinions.

Calling me a fool doesn't necessarily mean you are right so is insulting my family or parents. Now you get my drift.

But I will still love to know why you think we are such a big disappointment.

So you think.

Only a man who is not man enough will expect his son to defend him.
