A Nigerian man has spoken up about how his 15-year-old goal of playing for a football team in Melbourne, Australia, fell through.

He bitterly disclosed that his mother had single-handedly shattered his chances of realising that desire.

According to the young guy known as @naetochukwu01 on X, he was recruited to play for a team in Melbourne, Australia, but two weeks before leaving, he had a disagreement with his mother.

During the dispute, he snapped at his mother, who then burned all of the travel paperwork he had prepared for the trip. His mother regarded her actions as the most effective approach to discipline him as she believed he would grow more rude if he traveled overseas.

The young man lamented that his mother’s action put him through a lot of emotional trauma since then but he still chose to forgive her.

He wrote: “I no been wan talk but e no spoil. When I was 15 I got scouted to play for a team in Melbourne, Australia. Two weeks to leave for Melbourne.

“One faithful Sunday my mom came home from church and was yelling at me,so I hissed at her, she became furious (typical African mother) Then she started yelling “is it cos you want to go abroad now that you are hissing at me?, come and go now let me see you”.

“I have to tame you, before you become untamable” she stormed my room and took my travel documents, my Jerseys and boots I had bought in Nigeria and my boxes. She took kerosene and matches, went to the backyard and set everything ablaze

“Immediately she lit the fire and threw it in her eyes cleared. I was only able to recover my International passport. Idk if she regrets it but my life could have changed for good if not for her anger. I’m not saying this to pile on my Ma or anything but it changed the trajectory of my life.

“She has apologized and still apologizing and I don’t think I love her any less. I just hope I win big with something else cos the suffering that act has put me through can’t be explained.”

The comments section was filled with the reactions of netizens who sympathised with the young man.

@SuljaChinenye said: “It is clearly devil’s work. She was manipulated.”

@Row_Haastrup said: “Omo this one touched me. I’m sorry man. What happened was not ordinary, but it’s all good. May God restore to you all you ever lost as a result.”

@Dprince_charmin reacted: “Guy no be your mama be that.. She either adopt you or you were exchanged during birth. Something must be wrong.. No matter what happened she went too far to stop your glory.

“Every parents pray for thier children to surpass them in life but I’m sorry and not sorry that your mother is not that parent. No matter the apology she render, she already condemn your progress.. God forgive me if my words are bitter.. but this is definitely the Nollywood wicked Patience Ozwokwo.” *
