ALEX IWOBI Opens Up On Food Poisoning!!! by kelvee(op): 7:59am On Mar 24, 2016
NIGERIAN humour is a good way to pass through tough
times, as Alex Iwobi must have learnt in the past couple of
days.
After the Arsenal
forward came down with
food poisoning and
missed Tuesday
morning’s training with
the Super Eagles in
Abuja, team mates
rallied round him with
encouraging words,
according to team media
officer Toyin Ibitoye.
However, the older
players did not fail to
point out that he was the
architect of his own
problems by choosing to
consume pepper soup in
camp knowing he has a ‘soft stomach’.
Iwobi was born in Nigeria but was raised in England
where there is less emphasis on consumption of chili
pepper in meals, unlike in Nigeria where chili is a staple in
several dishes.
Yet other reports claim that Iwobi’s ailment was caused
by the consumption of salad at the team’s hotel.
Midfielder Ogenyi Onazi seems to have taken the
youngster under his wings while Chelsea’s John Obi Mikel
threw a bottle of water in a playful banter at the Arsenal
man during a break in training on Tuesday evening.
After overcoming the crisis and having a short physical
examination by the team’s physio in Kaduna, Iwobi later
confirmed via Twitter that the worst was over.
“Had the maddest food poisoning but I am good now and
feeling ready for the Egyptian match,” he wrote
