It was said that the visit was a precursor of a novelty football match on Sunday in which the ex-Super Eagles players would partake to to mark Tinubu’s 70th birthday.
Reacting to their visit, Sowore who is the publisher of Sahara Reports in a post on his verified social media accounts, described the occasion as one “driven by hunger.”
“Hunger is a bastard! JJ Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo, Victor lkpeba, Taribo West, and other ex-Super Eagles players paid Tinubu a visit today (Saturday, March 19, 2022) to endorse him,” wrote Sowore.
“I used to think Victor lkpeba was a smart person! Shame on these ex-soccer Super Eagles players! Imagine sending them to play for Nigeria as a team in the World Cup after they’ve expired?”
