Nigerian social media star Bobrisky has joked about her lack of interest in football, saying she doesn’t understand why people get so excited about the game.

Sharing her thoughts on Instagram stories, she admitted she has “never been a fan of football”, adding that her feminine nature makes it hard for her to sit and watch men shouting over goals.

She wrote:

“I’m never a fan of football… I don’t know what you guys enjoy in it. I’m too girly to sit down and watch grown men shouting goalllllllll 🤣 I’m really a girl 🤣.”

Her remarks came in the wake of Nigeria’s Super Eagles losing to Morocco in the AFCON semi-final. The post quickly drew attention online, with some fans debating her stance while others found humor in her playful take on the sport.
