AFCON 2023 SCANDAL: Côte d'Ivoire Disqualified, Trophy Awarded to Nigeria!

These were the headlines breaking all news media and I decided to tune to a popular news channel for update and there, the lady behind the camera was reading the breaking news with details...

Omo, I sank into my sofa in disbelief.

Breaking News...!!!


...In a shocking turn of events, Côte d'Ivoire's triumph in the AFCON 2023 has been tarnished by scandalous revelations. After an extensive investigation, it has been confirmed that they won the competition with the assistance of a witch doctor! 😱🔮

Witnesses and players have come forward, providing undeniable evidence of secret rituals and supernatural aid during the tournament. These clandestine activities were intended to manipulate matches and secure Côte d'Ivoire's victory. The football world is in disbelief! ⚽🌍

As a result, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has taken swift and decisive action. Côte d'Ivoire has been officially disqualified from their title and stripped of the AFCON 2023 trophy! 🚫🏆

Now the question remains, who will be awarded the prestigious trophy instead? The deserving team that fought valiantly in the final against Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, has been declared the rightful recipient! 🇳🇬🏆

The trophy will be ceremoniously handed over to the Nigerian team, celebrating their remarkable sportsmanship and dedication throughout the tournament. 🙌⚽

This scandal has sent shockwaves through the football community, highlighting the importance of fair play and the consequences of cheating. Fans and players alike are expressing their disappointment, calling for stricter measures to ensure the integrity of future competitions. ⚖️

AFCON 2023 will forever be remembered as a tournament marred by controversy, but it also serves as a turning point for African football.

Speaking further, the CAF spokesman said,

"Let us unite in preserving the integrity of the game and ensuring that such incidents are never repeated"

I was about to pick up my phone to call my guy Tunde, who is more a football guru as far as sports is concerned than me when I felt a tap on my back,

...hey bros, wake up its almost six thirty, you're getting late for work. I gradually but reluctantly opened my eyes to realise, it was only a DREAM.
