Former football star, Osaze Odemwingie has made a shocking confession….

“Over 70 per cent of African professional footballers patronise native doctors. These African players make use of witch doctors to boost their medical conditions and performances on the pitch.”

“What I encountered when I moved to Nigeria at the age of 17 as a football player. I rolled my own two legs during training, I left the rolled-up roll, but in the fall, I also hurt my shoulder and broke my arm. My mom was afraid when she heard, so they took me to the local shamans (native doctors). They poured hot water to relax the muscles.”

“Somehow, they returned the hand to the right place, while I yelled, they twisted some small sticks. They conjured something else to grow better. Some local affairs. Something was connected with the chicken, some kind of rite. I come home, my mother saw the hand, ‘broke?’ I answer: ‘Aha.’ They were taken to a regular hospital, anesthesia was done, they put the plaster on. All is well in the end.”

“Just at least 70% of players believe in it. They think that some kind of salve will save them. This is more suggestion. Brainwashing goes. But three years in Nigeria have been helpful to me. They called me to the big league, and there my career developed much faster.”
