Idah Peterside, a former Nigerian goalkeeper, has called for a ban on Victor Osimhen from the national team following a social media outburst by the Napoli striker directed at ex-Super Eagles coach Finidi George. Peterside has urged the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to take action against Osimhen, emphasizing that such measures are necessary to restore discipline within Nigerian football.

The incident has sparked widespread debate among fans and commentators. Some support Osimhen’s right to express his feelings, while others view his actions as disrespectful and believe they warrant disciplinary action. Peterside insists that Osimhen should not only be banned but also apologize to Finidi George for his outburst.

The NFF now faces a difficult decision that could significantly impact the future of one of their star players. The federation must decide whether to heed Peterside’s call and impose a ban on Osimhen or to address the situation through alternative means.

As the controversy unfolds, fans and pundits eagerly await the NFF’s decision and Osimhen’s response to Peterside’s demand for an apology. The outcome of this situation could set a precedent for how the NFF handles similar incidents in the future.
