Nigerian music legend Yinka Ayefele has responded after a video of footballer Victor Osimhen dancing passionately to his classic song “Beru Ba Mope” went viral. The track, which is from Ayefele’s 2005 Fulfilment album, stirred excitement online as fans watched Osimhen sing along and show off his energetic moves.
In the trending clip, Osimhen—who recently celebrated winning two trophies with Turkish football giants Galatasaray—is seen singing the lyrics fluently and dancing with enthusiasm.
The part of the Yoruba song that drew attention was:
“Anything they like, people can say. I will just be looking at them. It’s their problem. It’s their work and mine is to be progressing.”
Many online users interpreted the line as a subtle response to recent controversy. A man named John, who claimed to be related to Osimhen and said they attended the same primary school, alleged the striker had neglected his extended family. According to a report by GistLover, John also mentioned that community members had once raised funds to support Osimhen’s father, Patrick, after the death of his wife, in order to complete traditional marriage rites.
Yinka Ayefele, clearly pleased with the video, reposted the clip on social media and captioned it:
“Victor Osimhen vibing to YINKA AYEFELE’S FULFILMENT. #viralreels Victor Osimhen.”
The video continues to make rounds online, sparking both admiration and conversation.
