Touching: Tear Dropping Storyof Victor Moses. by Kcxee(m): 7:51am On Feb 08, 2013
This is the story of a young boy
whose parents were murdered
during 2002 riots in Kaduna.
He was aged 11 years at the time.
His parents, Mr Austine and Mrs
Josephine Moses, were missionaries
until they met their untimely death.
The boy left his house to play
football but returned home to see
that all his parents had laboured for
had been razed down and he would
never see his mother and father
again.
He was taken to London by his
uncle almost immediately after the
incident. While in London, he began
deploying his football skills.
Though his parents were murdered,
his passion for football was never
killed. He played football for his
school and later for a local Tandrige
League club until Crystal Palace FC
approached him. From that point,
his career progressed in leaps and
bounds.
This player played for England’s
under 16, 17, 19 and 21 teams
between 2005 and 2010 scoring 11
goals for England during this period.
He later moved to Wigan Athletic
and now he plays for Chelsea.
This footballer is called VICTOR
MOSES.
His story is a touching one, I share
his pains. I also share his courage.
He had a choice not to step into
Nigeria again but he didn’t take
that option. When the call to serve
his fatherland came, Moses dumped
England and embraced Nigeria…
That is patriotism!
Today, we see a Victor Moses
bringing joy to every Nigerian
including those who may have
inspired his parent’s death…That is
Love!
On Sunday, Moses would stand for
the National Anthem and pledge
allegiance to a country that couldn’t
defend his parents…That is faith!
Moses would deliver the “African
Cup of Nations” trophy to Nigeria
not minding what had happened in
the past… That is forgiveness!
Moses rose through bitterness and
despair to the limelight of hope and
courage.
He never gave up on his country.
He persevered… That is purpose!
If someone like Victor Moses,
despite the bitter past, never gave
up on Nigeria, then why should
we….! ONE NIGERIA
