The Super Eagles’ bronze-medal celebration didn’t end on the pitch — it followed them straight into the dressing room, and Nigerians can’t stop talking about it.

A viral video showed football icon Kanu Nwankwo vibing hard with the Super Eagles in Morocco after Nigeria edged Egypt 4–2 on penalties to clinch AFCON 2025 bronze. Singing, dancing, full Papilo energy — no age, no pressure, just vibes.
Kanu later dropped the clip on Instagram with his trademark swagger, celebrating the team and reminding everyone that the Nigerian spirit doesn’t know defeat. But that wasn’t even the part that sent social media into overdrive.

Reacting in the comments, she simply wrote: “Congratulations Super Eagles. Papilo dey for you. We move.”
That one line was enough to set timelines buzzing. Fans hailed her as “the wife of a legend,” while others applauded Kanu for still being fully locked in with Nigerian football. Some even joked that Papilo will forever be part of the squad — boots or no boots.
One thing’s clear: whether on the pitch or in the dressing room, Kanu Nwankwo still knows how to steal the show — and his wife knows exactly how to seal the moment.
