I’ll beat you mercilessly – Nwabali warns Lege Miami against disrespecting late dad

Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has issued a warning to popular matchmaker and social media personality Kehinde Adams, widely known as Lege Miami, over derogatory comments made about his late father.

Lege Miami had taken to social media to criticise several Super Eagles players following Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

While he praised Victor Osimhen, Benjamin Fredrick, and Calvin Bassey, he singled out others for harsh criticism.

The outspoken entertainer also took aim at Nwabali despite the goalkeeper saving two penalties in Nigeria’s playoff loss to DR Congo.

The comments, which referenced Nwabali’s late father whose funeral he recently attended, triggered an angry response from the goalkeeper.

Nwabali took to his Instagram story to warn the content creator, writing, “Lege Miami, remove my late dad’s name from your mouth if you are doing your content. If you don’t learn to respect people’s dad, you should respect the dead.
“I’m not your regular type of footballer I go beat you mercilessly. You’re free to insult me, but remove my late dad’s name from your mouth.”

Hours later, Lege Miami reshared Nwabali’s message and insisted the goalkeeper must apologise to Nigerians, saying: “@nwabali32 you come to my dm to insult my personality due to I corrected your mistakes anyway, all I want to say is for you to make an apology video for Nigerians.”
