Vincent Enyeama believes the criticism he has received in his international career have been largely fuelled by tribal sentiments not because of his performance in-between the sticks.

The former Enyimba keeper came under the spotlight severally in 2012 after making a series of costly errors in high profile matches for the national team and he believes his critics have been vocal because he is not from one of the three major tribes in Nigeria.

The 30-year old Super Eagles safe hands is from Akwa Ibom state, South-South Nigeria.

“My critics will remain as long I am still with the national team. I am criticised because I am not Hausa, Yoruba or Igbo but I am not worried,” Enyeama said in a recent interview.

This is 1diotic. I guess no player from the three major tribes have been criticized before.

Thought he was Igbo o.

Makes absolutely no sense. Even if you are a member of Nelson Mandela's nuclear family you will be criticized if you play nonsense. No player regardless of race, colour, height or tribe is immune. Stop yarning nopata abeg.

wht concern performance with tribe

rezzy: Thought he was Igbo o.

Me too o
when he was being praised for his exceptional saves, he didn't remember he's from a minority tribe abi? He should park well abeg.

April fool

Afam4eva: This is 1diotic. I guess no player from the three major tribes have been criticized before.

Enyeama should shattap! I love him , and he is Nigeria's best goalkeeper ever, but this indeed was an 1diotic statement.

LWKMD4H,DIS GUY NO WELL O,DIS IS PURELY IGNORANCE. IS AKWA IBOM NOT A NIGERIA STATE? IS HE NOT A NIGERIAN? NONSENSE TALK FROM ENYEAMA. MTSHEWWWWWWWWWWW

I will tell my Oga at the top to remove you for making such a dumb comment.........Dats all

because u dont knw oga at d top

Insecurity laced with complex.

In the game of football everybody gets criticized. Enyeama fall hand sha! Even Morinho the Special One.

I believe that statement, considering the tribal bashing on this forum. He's from a minority. SEE MARGINALIZATION.

I hope he has not joined Osaze in Twitter-Football-Club.

Abdul Adam56: Mtsssw which tribe he is?

learn to read man. Your reliance on expo and chukuli is taking a huge toll on u.

kup inua nfo ado, even ami ayin akwa ibom mme se nsua uno, ama bre ndisime

He probably wants to be discussed... Enyeama, ur wish is hereby granted as I never knew where you were from and never cared

I dont think Enyeama made such statement.I hardly see him being criticized in any quarters.He is very disciplined,gentle man,very loyal,confident,always have faith and determined and above all,well respected Super eagles player.I think people are trying to drag his name to the mud.Abeg Enyeama,dont feel distracted,we love you.You are ever my number One!!!.

Abdul Adam56: Mtsssw which tribe he is?

Aboki, what language is this?

Even if you happened to be a member of my family, I would criticize you if you do not do well at a particular time. And also I would surely commend you when you are inform. This type of criticism has nothing to do with tribal sentiment. Enyeama should be more exposed than this type of comment from him.

if he were GEJ, I'd comment on his matter

Dear Vincent, Most people did not know your tribe until today, which proves that you are talking rubbish. Please, commit these facts to heart. You will need them as you grow up. People will criticise you-

1. If you r an i.d.i.o.t
2. If u act like one

or

3. If they are the i.d.i.o.t.s themselves.

Summary: YOu are bound to be criticised one way or another.

rezzy: Thought he was Igbo o.

daz y u've bin criticizing him abi?
