Osimhen’s Outburst, Similar to That of Portable – Kolajide Otitoju
By Ozumi Abdul
Ace journalist, Kolajide Otitoju has compared Super Eagle and Napoli star’s recent outburst during his live video as similar to that of street sensation, Habib Okikiola popularly known as Portable.
He made the striking comparison on Sunday during TV’s Journalists’ Hangout program.
Recall that Osimhen on Saturday lashed out at the just resigned Super Eagles’ coach, Finidi George, with some unprintable words in reaction to Finidi’s allegation that the Napoli star was feigning injury in order not to feature in the recent world cup qualifiers between South Africa and Benin Republic, where the team performed absymally, drawing against South Africa in Calabar and losing against Benin Republic in Abidjan respectively.

Reacting to the Africa footballer of the year’s infamous outburst, Otitoju expressed his dissatisfaction, saying most of the words he uttered during the live video were gutter ones, that have no disparity between that of Portable.
He fumed that Osimhen should be more professional in his choice of words, even in the face of tempting provocations.
He however noted that it was a good thing that Finidi George resigned his position as Eagles’ coach because Nigeria is in a precarious situation of not qualifying for successive world cup, having missed out on the 2022 edition in Qatar.
The ace journalist journalist also blamed the process through which Finidi was made the Eagles’ coach, stressing that it was rigged in his favour at the expense of Emmanuel Amunike, who he said wields richer experience of coaching national teams than Finidi, having won the under 17 works cup with the Nigerian Eaglets, and qualifying Tanzania for nations cup after thirty years without success.
