Actor Muyiwa Ademola has said he told God that he will never commit an act of sin if Nigeria beats South Africa.
Nigeria’s Super Eagles beat the Bafana Bafana of South Africa 4- 2 after a penalty shootout on Wednesday to qualify for the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Celebrating, the victory in an Instagram post Muyiwa Ademola said he vowed never to sin again and his joy knew no bounds when Nigeria eventually won the match.
The 53-year-old added that no one cared about tribe and he saw the genuine love that was lost during the election.
He wrote: “What a good time to be a Nigerian! The kind of joy in my heart today is quite immeasurable! I screamed, I jumped, I knelt, I prayed to God, at a point I even asked God to do it for us and I would never sin again!
“When we eventually won, the Joy knew no bound, we hugged, I even lifted up some people at @stonecafeibadan where I watched the match ! We were over joyous! Pple shed tears of joy! I wasn’t interested in the tribe that scored, no one was. I felt like sending 1 billion Naira to the boys! (I would have, if I had though 😊). No one care about tribes, we all shared the joy as ONE… ONE NIGERIA! I saw the genuine LOVE that was lost during election tonight!
“Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Ebira, Fulani, Ijaw, Kanuri, Igala, Itsekiri, Tiv, Bariba… WE BECAME ONE!
“NONE MATTERED THAN THE OTHER TONIGHT, if you doubt me go to the street. Why should football be the only thing to unite us this way? Why can’t we hold onto the love we felt tonight and come together as one to push the country forward?
“If our forefathers have planted a root of hatred, why can’t we uproot it so that our own children and children’s children will not taste out of the fruits and still preserve it for generations yet unborn? IT IS NOT TOO LATE!”
