'm 20" Dolphins FC striker insists as he'sdismissed for falsification of age
Does he looks like 20yrs fellas?
Dolphins FC of Port
Harcourt striker and 2014 Federation MVP, Emem Eduok
has been dismissed from the national U23 camp for age
falsification.
According to the management of the U23 players,
Emem's passport states he was born January 31, 1994
while his club license shows he was born in 1991. Media
officer of the U23, Timi Ebikagboro while speaking on his
dismissal said Emem has to go and sort out his age
irregularities with his club.
He came with a passport showing he is 20 but his
records in the LMC shows he is 23. If you watch the
Federation Cup final on Super Sport, his age was
shown as 23. The license his club sent to the NFF is
23. So, it's left for him and his club to sort out the
issue. It's assumed that the player signed the LMC
document, which stated that the player agreed to all
the information in the document," he said.
Meanwhile Emem maintains he is 20 and not 23
"I'm 20 and not 23. I was born in 1994, so I don't
know where the club got their information from. I
played at the U-20 World Cup last year, with the age
on my passport. That is my age and that is what
FIFA knows" he said.
