Super Falcons defender Onome Ebi has cried out over the lack of support from Nigerians whom she claims do not do enough to honour their old-timers.
Ebi who spoke on an Instagram live session, alleged that she heard that Super Falcons head coach, Randy Waldrum was being pressured to include her in the list of the players for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and she called out the Falcons’ head coach to deny the allegation.
She said in a sane clime she would be honoured with a place in the Paris 2024- bound Falcons’ team to celebrate her and end her national team’s career in style.
Referring to Brazil attacker, Martha, Ebi said the striker is billed to have her swansong at the Olympics but expressed her disbelief at Nigerians who constantly enquire about her future with the Super Falcons.
“I heard the NFF is begging him to include me in the Olympic squad. Let Randy come out live and come and defend what I have said. Martha that is going to the Olympics is it not to honour her?” Ebi asked rhetorically.
“The Olympics she is going she would be honoured each time she’s asked to come on or go out. That is how to honour people and a fitting way to leave the national team but my country is different.
“Nigerians have been trying to frustrate me out of the national team for years now. “But it’s different in my country. They will use insults to frustrate your life. They have been frustrating me since I was 36, 37 and 38 to leave the national team. If I am included in the team to the Olympic and retire thereafter didn’t I worth it? I am super proud that I am still actively playing even at 41,” she said.
