Renowned legal luminary and soccer enthusiast, Prof. Mike Ozekhome SAN, CON, OFR, has congratulated the Super Eagles on their outstanding victory in Kigali, Rwanda.
The Eagles’ impressive win by a good margin was a testament to their skills, determination, and the Nigeria fighting spirit.
Prof. Ozekhome, who is known for his passion for soccer, praised the team’s performance, saying they made the nation proud.
However, Prof. Ozekhome sounded a note of caution, warning the Eagles not to become complacent ahead of their next match against Zimbabwe. He reminded them that Zimbabwe, though wounded, is still a formidable opponent that should not be underestimated.

Prof. Ozekhome emphasized the importance of the Eagles’ victory, stating that the World Cup would not be the same without Nigeria’s participation.

As a seasoned lawyer and soccer enthusiast, Prof. Ozekhome’s words carry significant weight. His congratulatory message and words of caution are a testament to his passion for the sport and his desire to see the Super Eagles succeed on the global stage.
With the next match against Zimbabwe looming, the Super Eagles will need to remain vigilant and focused to secure another victory. Prof. Ozekhome’s message serves as a timely reminder of the importance of staying motivated and avoiding complacency, especially against a wounded opponent.
