Lagos Fans Mobbed Emenike At Airport by donphilopus: 9:43am On Oct 17, 2013
EMMANUEL EMENIKE AFCON2013 GOLDEN BOOT WINNER

Goal hero of final round of the World Cup qualification tie against Ethiopia at the Addis Ababa stadium, Emmanuel Emenike was mobbed by football fans at the Muritala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos as he returned to his base in Turkey.

Thanks to Emenike’s two goals in the Nigeria’s 2-1 triumph over Ethiopia last Sunday, October 13, Nigeria will compete in the second leg set to be held on November 16 in Calabar.

He arrived at the airport at about 9 p.m. with his escort, Emenike was overwhelmed by his fans’ greetings. Despite the tight security, they surrounded him, and the footballer was forced to give out cash and club jerseys, while he made his way into the departure lounge.

“I find joy playing for Nigeria and making this people happy. Though sometimes I get angry when things are not in order, but I love playing for this country at anytime,”

“I am not Super Eagles’ messiah. My feat has been by the help of God, I am just trying to make myself and Nigerians happy.
“Goals can come from anybody, so I count myself lucky when I do it for my country and I intend to keep the scoring form,” he said.

Asked why he didn’t celebrate as expected after scoring both goals, he said: “I don’t believe celebrating in Addis Ababa is worth it because the job is not concluded yet. We played with a lot of pressure, we were intimidated in so many ways but I am happy we conquered our fears,

“I will celebrate with Champagne after the win in Calabar. I will bathe the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) officials and the coaches with bottles of Champagne in Calabar,” he assured.

He has some humility in him.
Hope he continues like this.

Meanwhile in other news, the great Sweetus Oyoyo has again rebuffed the entreaties of the NFF to join the National Team. Yuzedo as he is fondly called who plays as an Attacker, Midfielder and Defender for Banana Iceland FC and also when he travels to Europe as a lethal mercenary for big Champions League Club has stated that he is not ready to play for the Super Eagles until a sweet babe on Nairaland PMs him. In his words, "Am a shy and nice bois, very handsomed, quite romantick and really trully 18inche and above, i dint see why NL babes are hoardin punny on d grate website. are we nut all nigerias? am i nut gonna bring a glory to d nation?? is a really this-grace, dey cant even honor deir legends! angry sad"

The NFF offered him many sweet babes from ALL OVER THE WORLD but Yuzedo turned them down because he is a patriot.
