Nigerian professional footballer and Barcelona striker Asisat Oshoala has warned fans not to overwhelm her direct messages (DMs) with requests for financial support.
The football player sent a warning on her Snapchat account to those who constantly messaged her for financial assistance, citing reasons like their wife giving birth or wedding finances.
Asisat noted that although she likes to support and help her fans, there are some alms she wouldn’t condone.
“While I enjoy having fun here, there are certain things that should be common sense. I help a lot of people here, but there are situations I won’t condone or support, such as ‘MY WIFE JUST GAVE BIRTH,’ ‘I WANT TO HAVE A WEDDING,’ and so on. Use your common sense. Set your priorities right!!” She noted.
Several people responded positively to her warning. See their comments below:
