Ancestral Curse Of Moshood Abiola Stadium Revealed As Reason For Nigeria Failure To Qualify For World Cup

In an interesting turn of events in Nigeria following their failure to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, it has been disclosed that the Moshood Abiola Stadium has been cursed.

According to previous inhabitants of the Abuja environs, they were forced out of the place as they rained curses on that location.

Nigeria has struggled in matches played at the Moshood Abiola Stadium.

According to Lazarus Nyaholo, Secretary Garki Chiefdom in the FCT, quoted by Daily Post, “If they like let them play 10 matches on that pitch, they will never emerge victorious because the original inhabitants that were in that location were chased out unceremoniously without compensation and they laid a curse on that land.”

He made the revelation on Wednesday while speaking at a town hall meeting on Mining Community Development Agreements CDAs and Inauguration of Community Cultural Ambassadors organised by the Centre for Transparency Advocacy (CTA).

“There is no aspect of human endeavour that the original inhabitants of the Federal Capital Territory are not affected negatively. When you talk of politics you can see the ratio of our representation in the National Assembly only two House of Representatives member and one Senator against what you have three in other states and more than five in the case of the House of Representatives.

”The decision body of the Federal Government of Nigeria, the original inhabitants of FCT are not participants, so whatever decision is taken there, people of the FCT are not taken into consideration because we have no voice there.

“Economically we have been reduced to paupers because our land which is our source of livelihood, you know before the creation of FCT, we were predominantly farmers, now there is no land to farm and each land taken away is not being replaced or compensated for, most times our people are compensated just for the economic trees on the land, but for the landed property itself nobody has ever been compensated and our worries are that the FCT is just about 8000 square kilometres and when its fully developed there will be no farmland in the entire FCT,” the Garki Chiefdom Secretary lamented.
