Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen delivered another masterclass performance, scoring a brace to help Galatasaray secure their fourth consecutive Turkish league title in emphatic fashion.
The atmosphere after the final whistle turned electric as popular Nigerian social media personalities Tunde Ednut and VeryDarkMan, widely known as VDM, joined the Super Eagles star on the pitch to celebrate the historic achievement.
In a viral moment captured during the celebrations, someone in the background mentioned “Obi,” prompting Tunde Ednut to loudly respond, “Obi for President!”
VDM then jokingly asked him what would happen if he was offered “₦50 million” to support the contrary political direction. Tunde Ednut immediately rejected the suggestion, replying:
“Never ever ever… Obi for President.”
VDM concluded the clip with a remark many Nigerians online have since interpreted as a subtle reflection on the country’s political situation, saying:
“Well as you can see, I’m not partisan, but if you like as the country be, continue…”
The video has since sparked widespread reactions across Nigerian social media, with supporters of Peter Obi hailing the public show of support, while others debated the growing intersection between entertainment, sports, and political advocacy in Nigeria.
Osimhen’s remarkable season continues to strengthen his status as one of Africa’s most influential football stars, both on and off the pitch.
