Ahead of Nigeria's African Cup of Nations (AFCON) semi-final clash with South Africa, a man has sent a message to the Bafana Bafana team.

In a TikTok video, @nktvpaa expressed disgust for Nigerian supporters for trolling other teams in the tournament, adding that they did not 'allow others to breathe.'
