AFCON: Boastful Eboue eats his words, apologises to Nigeria

Galatasary of Turkey and Elephant of Cote d’Ivoire defender, Emmanuel Eboue, who had boasted that his country will eat the Super Eagles of Nigeria like ‘super fried chicken’  during yesterday’s  quarter final match in the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations  in South Africa, has apologised for his comments.
Eboue, who through his twitter handle @TheRealEboue, congratulated Nigeria shortly after his country was humiliated in a 2- 1 defeat by the Super Eagles wished the country’s soccer team good luck in the competition.
Cote d’ Ivoire was sacked from the Nations Cup by the Super Eagles of Nigeria who put up a superlative performance to shock all their critics who had written them off.
Eboue’s tweets read thus: King Emmanuel Eboue ‏@TheRealEbouee; “I apologies to all Nigerians that might find my tweets offensive or sensitive. It’s meant to be jokes and funny. I am sorry. #moveOn. … Peace and love to Africa. I hope Nigeria wins the #NationsCup .Amen”
