Following Nigeria’s loss to Ivory Coast in the 2023 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) final, Ghanaians took to social media to seek revenge through playful banter.
Despite making it to the finals, the Super Eagles suffered a 2-1 defeat against the host nation. Ghanaians swiftly capitalized on this opportunity to mock their Nigerian counterparts for their recent setbacks.

One notable entity joining in the teasing was DSTV Ghana, whose administrator didn’t hold back in delivering some playful jabs at the Super Eagles.
On the X platform, DSTV Ghana referenced Nigeria’s Burna Boy’s Last Last song to mock the Super Eagles. Just like the song, they came “last” and got their breakfast.
DSTV had a lesson for the flightless Super Eagles and it was that “no one remembers the one who comes second”.
In response to the fact that Ghana was knocked out of the group stages and could not get a medal like Nigeria did, DSTV Ghana said “You can’t shame the shameless.”
