The man had accused the Super Falcons of failing Nigerian youths by representing ‘a terrorist government’.

In a viral video, he accused President Muhammadu Buhari’s government of kidnapping Nigerian youths and killing them, a statement believed to be of a sympathiser of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) terrorist group merely ventilating an undue frustration.

At an attempt by a white attendant the terrorist IPOB sympathiser described as a “Switzerland” citizen, he resorted to raining vituperation like “Don’t touch me. If you touch me I will the police for you. This is not Nigeria. This is not a terrorist country.”

In the video watched by The DEFENDER, Nigerians inside the train coach however reacted telling him how unreal a Nigerian he is.

Reacting to the development, Pinnick said the Falcons did not deserve to be subjected to such harassment.

“We’re infuriated because these are young ladies [Super Falcons] who are our ambassadors and are there in Austria preparing for major international competitions.

“That was a dastardly act by that fellow, and we’re not taking it lightly. The girls simply wanted to go on sightseeing, and there’s nothing wrong with that. They don’t deserve to be subjected to such a diatribe by a so-called fellow Nigerian.

“We’ll unmask the fellow and then take it from there,” Pinnick was quoted by Soccernet as saying.
