Former Nigerian senator Dino Melaye has shared a social media post, warning Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali that his position is under threat, Soccernet.ng reports.
Nwabali rose to international recognition after his exploits with Nigeria at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations that held in January this year.
With the Super Eagles struggling in the goalkeeping department in recent years, the Chippa United shot-stopper got his chance and cemented his place in the team after a series of impressive performances in goal.
Meanwhile, in a recent development, former Nigerian senator Dino Melaye has jokingly warned Nwabali that his position may just be under threat.
Senator Melaye shared pictures of himself involved in a football recently, and he was the goalkeeper. He even shared a video of himself attempting to save a penalty kick.
