Former Nigeria international Chinedu Obasi says he has been felling the heat of speaking out on being asked to pay before he will be given a spot in the senior national team of Nigeria for the 2014 World Cup which took place in Brazil.
Obasi said he was asked to pay some amount before he will be considered for a spot but he declined and hence was left out of the team despite having a better season than some players who finally made the team to the tournament.
“I was playing for Schalke, I was playing in the Champions League and I was doing well. It was a friendly game going to South Africa 2010. Two days before the list came out, I was asked to pay some money if I want to be in the team”, he told Kelechi Bernard on an interview hosted on Instagram.
According to the forward who is now at Sweden side AIK he hasn’t found it easy since making the revelations as he has been placed under huge pressure via phone calls and social media interactions.

Already his twitter account @Eduobasi has been suspended for violations which he claimed he knew nothing about. No doubt he has touched a very sensitive area that most have refuse to speak on despite suffering from it and he is feeling the heat already.
