Nigerians on twitter have reacted to the exit of the Super Eagles from AFCON2021 after the team were defeated by Tunisia.
However, some Nigerians have blamed the loss on President Muhammadu Buhari for his video call with the Super Eagles earlier before the match.
Others blamed Maduka Okoye for a goalkeeping error that gave the Carthage Eagles (Tunisia) the goal a few minutes into the second half.
