Sports Minister Takes a Stand Against Cyberbullying: Draws Support for Alex Iwobi

    In a powerful video post on Tuesday, the Sports Minister passionately condemned the cyberbullying of football star Alex Iwobi and urged the public to rally behind athletes who give their all for the nation.

    “I condemn strongly the cyberbullying of Alex Iwobi or any other sportsman or woman,” the Sports Minister stated in the heartfelt video, capturing a meeting between him and Iwobi. He continued, emphasizing the dedication of athletes who represent the nation on the global stage.

    “They give a lot if not all of themselves when representing our Nation; the least we can do is rally support for them, be kind and gracious with words and actions towards them.”

    Directly addressing Alex Iwobi, the Sports Minister extended words of encouragement and admiration for his contributions to the team’s success at AFCON 2023.

    “Dear Alex Iwobi, be strong. You were part of a team that brought home a silver medal from AFCON 2023. The last time we won a silver was twenty-three years ago at AFCON 2000.”

    In a clear message to cyberbullies, the Minister asserted that their negativity does not define the national perspective on the players.

    “Cyberbullies do not determine what the leadership of the country, the rest of Nigerians including myself, think of you. You did your best, gave over four days for the love of the nation. We applaud you. We are proud of you, keep soaring.”

    The Sports Minister’s video serves as a rallying cry for unity and support within the nation, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and appreciating the sacrifices made by athletes who represent Nigeria on the international stage. As Alex Iwobi continues to face unwarranted criticism, the Minister’s message stands as a beacon of encouragement and a reminder that the nation stands behind its athletes, celebrating their achievements and resilience.
