In a remarkable show of solidarity and confidence in Nigeria’s Super Eagles, popular Nigerian singer Kcee has stirred up a bit of controversy by placing a hefty N3 million bet on the national team for their highly anticipated AFCON 2023 clash against host country Cote d’Ivoire.
Despite the initial Group A match resulting in a 1-1 draw against Equatorial Guinea on January 14th, Kcee remains unwavering in his support for the team, expressing absolute faith in their ability to secure a victory against the Ivorians.
As the upcoming clash against Cote d’Ivoire looms on January 18, 2023, Kcee’s substantial bet of N3 million has captured attention, reflecting the passion and loyalty that football fans, including celebrities, often invest in supporting their national teams.
Should the Super Eagles emerge victorious, the singer stands to win a substantial N11.7 million from his bold wager.
This move has ignited discussions across social platforms, with fans and followers chiming in on the team’s prospects and the exciting dynamics surrounding the AFCON tournament.
The Super Eagles now carry not only the hopes of a nation but also the financial expectations of one of Nigeria’s popular music artists.
