Mikel Obi Deletes Twitter Account After Racial Abuse by Emyo(m): 6:42am On Sep 21, 2012
Mikel removed his profile from the social networking site less than 24 hours after his mistake helped cost Chelsea victory in the opening match of their Champions League defence against Juventus.

Chelsea originally said it was entirely coincidental that Mikel, who claimed he was unaware of any abuse, had decided to delete the 'Mikel12Official' account he set up this summer.

However, the club admitted that they have informed the police after being made aware of the developments.

A statement read: "We've been made aware of racist tweets targeted at Mikel which are totally unacceptable, disgusting and abhorrent. We've informed the police and support taking the strongest possible action."

You spoke well bros.

No one is above mistake.

In fact, some deliberate "mistakes" made by them whites have cost millions of lives over the centuries.

Tht shows humility. Anywhre every one makes mistake. Top players do miss even penalty when its needed most. Roney, C.ronaldo, kaka, shevshenko, drogba. Where they crucified? Whites hates blacks everywhre in d world. Its only in nigeria they worship whites. Inferiority complex.

You all condemning the Racial attacks and abuse should SHUT the Fu*ck up.

Are you all not worst racist to you fellow Nigerian?
Racism has gone far beyond colour discrimination.

How else can you explain the tribal war going on in this forum every second of each passing day. Where Ibo insults the Yoruba's at the slightest topic and Yoruba does the same too to the hausa.

Jonathan is even the worst racist (trbalist) currently in Nigeria as he is more concerned abouth the welfare of the South-South people instead of Nigeria as a whole.

Seun is the worst racist on this forum. As ONLY bad news of the Ibos are put on the frontpage.


The ONLY Patrotic Nigeria that still exist as at today is Obasanjo. That man judges fairly without putting religion or ethnicity to play.

If you abused Mikel, you aren't a supporter,
it's as simple as that. We don't want you
and we don't need you. Thanx...
John Obi Mikel de-activated his twitter
accounts because fans were verbally
abusing him. The fans that abused him are
pathetic.
