Man says Nigeria will play World Cup
Legit.ng had earlier reported that FIFA has fixed a date to decide the petition filed against DR Congo over the alleged use of ineligible players during the World Cup playoffs.
As many await the decision, @omegv_, a young man, took to his media page to say that Nigeria will play in the World Cup.
He also explained the alleged act DR Congo was caught doing, which might lead to the team’s disqualification.
He said:
"Nigeria is going to the World Cup because the Congolese team got caught doing a hanky panky. Falsifying documents for one of their players, and FIFA is currently investigating. If they're found guilty, they will be disqualified, and guess who is going to take their place? Nigeria."
As a result of the alleged act DR Congo is said to have committed, he noted it might lead to their disqualification.

He continued:
"Congo, you should have done better. You guys should know better than this. At such a crucial time, you should have done your due diligence to make sure everybody is good to go, but you didn’t. If you guys are found guilty of falsifying documents for your players…"
He also spoke about the alleged individual that DR Congo is said to have used in the match against Nigeria.
He added:
"This guy they're talking about, he's older than they say he is."

"You don’t know what you’re talking about.Nigeria ain’t going nowhere. The dispute is not about the age , it’s about the nationality. Nigeria is complaining that our players have duo citizenship which is not allowed in DRC. But that’s got nothing to do with fifa because at the end of the day they’re originally from Congo 😂😂😂 FIFA has done an investigation and no one is guilty."
