Super Eagles goalkeeper Francis Uzoho has apologized to fans for his social media outburst during Nigeria’s recent friendlies.

The Omonia Nicosia man had a horrific time in Nigeria‘s recent friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique.

Nigerians were outraged by his performances in both games, with many advocating for his dismissal from the team. As a result of the development, Uzoho blasted the supporters on Snapchat.

A day after his outburst, the goalkeeper turned to X (Twitter), pleading with Nigerians to forgive him. “It has come to my attention that my recent Snapchat has not been my best behaviour towards you all as my loyal fans,” he wrote.

“I apologise for this, as it was not my intention to conduct myself in such a manner toward the fans who have supported and motivated me throughout my career.

“My actions were more a result of frustration stemming from the actions of someone in my circle (will keep the identity private for now).

“Accepting criticism is part of my job and one that I often welcome from the people who continue to support me. I accept your criticisms with the utmost respect and understanding that you all want me to do better.

“I want you all to know that I continue to grow daily as a person and in my career and you all are a vital part of my growth and success. My actions are aimed to reflect this and will continue to do so.”
