The wait for the highly-anticipated semi-final game between Bafana Bafana and Nigeria is almost over, and the pressure just keeps getting higher and higher as the chairman of Chippa United FC made a rather shocking statement about which national team he will be supporting.
Sivive Mpangesi says they will be supporting the Super Eagles
Bafana Bafana and Nigeria's Super Eagles seem to be causing havoc on social media regarding their upcoming AFCON semi-final game on Wednesday, 7 February 2024.
This came after Nigerians living in SA were advised not to celebrate should Bafana Bafana lose, and then hours after that statement was released, the chairman of Chippa United FC also released a statement making it known that he and the club would be standing with Nigeria instead of the South African national team.
