“Zazu”- Super Falcons players Nnadozie and Gift Monday vibe with Portable’s trending lines

Nnadozie has made six international appearances for Nigeria, compared to Gift Monday’s ten

Gift Monday and Chiamaka Nnadozie, two Super Falcons players, were seen hanging out together while miming and singing the current tunes made famous by Portable (Habeeb Olalomi oyegbile).

The Paris FC goalkeeper and the UD Granadilla Tenerife attacker were seen chilling out on a posh bus in a video posted on Asisat Oshoala’s Instagram story as they laugh with the current Zazu fad.

When he was speaking in a viral video during a heated exchange with some security personnel who invaded his bar, the well-known street-hop musician said he is a baboon who lives in a zoo.

“I’m a baboon. I stay in the zoo. Zazu!! I’m a baboon. I live in the zoo, zazu!!! They chased me away from Lekki till I eventually decided to settle in the zoo. And now, they’ve come for me here in the zoo.” the Nigerian musician claims.

After this, the remark started a new wave of social media trends as others started to mimic it, and some even turned it into a meme.

The Two Super Falcons players, however, followed the trend as Monday was seen singing Portable’s “I’m a baboon”, imitating a King Kong, while Nnadozie can be seen giggling in the video.

The two players were most recently included in Randy Waldrum’s squad list for their 2023 FIFA World Cup warm-up matches, which are scheduled to begin on Friday against Haiti and on April 11 against one of the World Cup hosts, New Zealand.

The two stars are anticipated to be instrumental in helping them overcome Haiti and New Zealand in the two exhibition games as they get ready for the global tournament.
