It's also about bragging rights. The Nations cup is held every 2 years and you can imagine the humiliation you go through if your team doesn't win.

My peeps (S/Leone) did not qualify and S/Leoneans are divided between Nigeria, Cameroon and Ghana. Nigeria have the most fans among them, so you can imagine the provocation these peeps will heap on me should Ghana loose to Nigeria. When we go to play soccer at the weekends, they will spend over 1 hour provoking peeps supporting countries that have lost during the week. Abeg, those Ghana players had better perform o.

BTW, a lot of peeps are now looking at me in a funny way cos I warned them about Ghana and CIV prior to the Nations cup kicking off. Imagine these peeps, I had 8 calls after Guinea equalised against Ghana. But thanks to Muntari, they were placed where they belong.
