Former Super Eagles striker Jude Ighalo has sent social media into fits of laughter after his dramatic reaction to a penalty taken by Morocco against Senegal went viral.
During the tense encounter on Tuesday night, Morocco were awarded a crucial penalty, raising anxiety among fans watching the high-stakes moment unfold. As the North African side prepared to step up, Ighalo took to social media with a tongue-in-cheek plea that instantly caught attention.
“I’m inviting Nigerian juju, Senegalese juju, Ghanaian and South African juju to come and save this penalty,” he wrote, accompanied by laughing and pointing emojis.
The humorous comment resonated with football fans across Africa, many of whom are familiar with the long-standing jokes about “juju” and superstition in football, especially during pressure-filled moments like penalties.
In other news,…. Controversial tech entrepreneur and cryptocurrency figure, Blord, has issued a stern warning to social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), over the continued use of the name “RATEL.”
In a strongly worded statement, Blord disclosed that he has instructed his Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) to issue a cease-and-desist letter to VDM, demanding that he immediately stop using the name “RATEL,” which Blord claims is now legally associated with his brand.
“I have directed my SAN to issue a cease-and-desist letter to VDM, instructing him to stop using my brand name, RATEL. He will have to get my approval henceforth before using the name RATEL,” Blord stated.
According to Blord, the name “RATEL” has become part of his brand identity and commercial interests, and its continued use by VDM without authorization amounts to brand infringement. He insisted that any future use of the name must receive his explicit consent.
As of the time of filing this report, VeryDarkMan has not publicly responded to Blord’s claim or the reported legal action. The situation is expected to generate further debate, especially among VDM’s supporters, who see “RATEL” as a platform linked to activism and public accountability.
