Emenike also criticised the security details accompanying the governors with “empty stomach.”

He concluded that Nigeria is irredeemable, noting that during his playing days, he believed he was representing a country to be proud of , unaware it was just an “embezzlement ground.”

“The arrogance and confidence in some of these Governor’s makes me sick and a lot of them doesn’t have good plans for the future of their state. Zero plans,” he wrote. 

“Just embezzle money and una police and army go still they follow them with empty stomach. Jokers. 

“Nigeria is finished and gone. We thought it was a country when when we played for Nigeria not knowing that it is an embezzlement ground.”
