Super Eagles forward, Ahmed Musa, has received a chieftaincy title in Yobe State, a recognition he shared in a video on his social media handle.
Musa who was the captain of the Super Eagles during Jose Peseiro stint with the team, expressed gratitude for the warm reception and love from the people of Yobe North, thanking the Emir of Nguru for bestowing upon him the title of Shetiman Kwallon Kaf na Nguru.
Taking to his X, he wrote, “Feeling incredibly grateful for the massive turnout, warm welcome, and love from the people of Yobe North! ❤️🙏 Special thanks to the Emir of Nguru for bestowing upon me the title of Shetiman Kwallon Kaf na Nguru .
“I am truly honored and my heart is full of gratitude. Special thanks to all the youths and the people of Nguru for your support. May Allah bless you all! 🌟🙌 .”
This is not the first time Musa has been honored with a chieftaincy title.
In 2017, he was named Jagaban Matasan by the Association of the Northern Nigerian during the commissioning of his Sports and Fitness Center in Kano State.
Musa, a key player in Nigeria’s national team, the Super Eagles, was recently left out of the squad for the matches against South Africa and Benin Republic.
He was, however, part of the Eagles squad that won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa and the silver medal in AFCON 2023.
