Nigerians tease Black Stars over AFCON arrival attire

By Daily Sports Nigeria on January 12, 2024

Nigerian fans on social media platform, X, have teased the Ghanaian national team over their arrival outfits for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

The Black Stars, led by captain Andre Ayew, were photographed posing in white short-sleeved shirts with matching shorts, while the shirt-pockets had different designs.

Some Nigerian fans took to social media to laugh at the Ghanaian players, saying their jerseys looked like prison uniforms, while others called them “herbalist sidekicks.”

This is no surprise as there is a long-standing rivalry between the Black Stars of Ghana and the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

Olanrewaju Abdulyekeen wrote, “No offence but why do the Ghanaians look like prisoners?”

Another Nigerian with the username @Oluwadeh said that the Black stars looked like medical students in their matching white attire.

“The Ghanaians dressed like 200l Anatomy students that just passed a phase of test,” he wrote.

FireLord Zhuko was one of those who said they looked like associates of herbalists writing in pidgin, “See as Ghana people be like those herbalists sidekick.”

@jahy_official also said the Ghanaian footballers looked like prisoners, who instead of wearing blue, wore white.

“Why are they looking like kirikiri members but in white,” he wrote.

Aother social media user on X, @OObialor75248 wrote, “Why those Ghanaian guys look like herbalist apprentice? No shades abeg.”

Uncle Tenshun was among the Nigerians who said they looked like prisoners writing, “See as these Ghanaian guys look like prisoners.”
