Lege Miami said his comments were meant to correct Nwabali’s on-field performance, not to disrespect his late father.
Content creator and actor Kehinde Adams, widely known as Lege Miami, has apologised to Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali for referencing his late father in a social media post.
Lege Miami said his comments were meant to correct Nwabali’s on-field performance, not to disrespect his late father.
In his post, he wrote: “First, I am sorry I mentioned your late dad that made you upset, but you don’t like listening to corrections. When they correct you, you like to act like a big man on the pitch.
“Your hanky-panky on the pitch is too much. You are supposed to give your colleagues courage, but you play with the ball inside the box. You do a lot of mistakes, we are trying to correct you.”https://www.instagram.com/p/DRNOWJ6Aqua/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=12
The exchange follows Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup after losing to DR Congo in the African playoff—a result that sparked criticism of the national team and its players.
Earlier, Nwabali had warned Lege Miami to stop mentioning his late father while commenting on the team, saying such remarks were inappropriate.
