Super Eagles captain Vincent Enyeama has written an emotion-laden statement on Instagram to describe his sorrow at both losing his mother and missing the key Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Tanzania on Saturday.
Enyeama withdrew from the match on Wednesday for ‘personal reasons’ that were initially not disclosed. But it emerged later in the day that the Lille goalkeeper had lost his mother, when former Super Eagles media officer Colin Udoh tweeted the sad news
Although he did not mention his late mother, Enyeama’s post on Instagram late on Wednesday night was raw with emotion, the words dripping with pain.
“So sorry I won’t make it out there to wear this shirt,” Enyeama wrote below an artist’s impression of himself in a Super Eagles shirt.
