Super Eagles player, Jude Ighalo shares his observation on the significant decrease in Apollo virus cases in Nigeria this year, attributing it to economic challenges.
Taking to Instagram, the 35-year-old footballer jokingly stated that Nigerians haven’t suffered from Conjunctivitis, popularly known as Apollo in Nigeria, which is an infection or irritation caused by bacterial or viral factors to the eyeball.
In his defense, the economic hardship Nigerians have experienced this year due to rising fuel prices, food costs, and living expenses is justification for warding off the virus.
The virus has nowhere to remain in Nigerians’ eyes after what they have witnessed.
He wrote,
“Who else notice say NO Apolo this year because everybody eyes don see shege!!!!! God abeg o”
Ighalo’s observation has sparked hilarious comments online, with many affirming his claim.
