Hours before one of the most anticipated clashes of the Africa Cup of Nations 2025, a Nigerian engineer took to social media to share a prophetic vision about the match's outcome. The semi-final encounter between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and the host nation, Morocco, scheduled for Wednesday, January 14 at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat, was the subject of his dream.
The Dream Prediction: A 2-0 Victory for Nigeria
Engineer Ibrahim Oniboki disclosed on Facebook that he dreamt of a convincing win for the Nigerian side. According to his account shared in the comment section of a post by a Nigerian woman discussing the pre-match atmosphere in Morocco, the dream depicted a 2-0 victory for Nigeria.
He specified that star striker Victor Osimhen and a defender, whose name he could not recall, were the goal scorers in his vision. "Had a dream that we won the match by 2-0. Oshimhen with one defender have forgotten his name," Oniboki wrote, sharing his premonition with the online community just before the crucial kick-off.
Netizens React to the Prophetic Vision
The engineer's post quickly triggered a flurry of reactions from hopeful Nigerian fans and curious observers. Many saw it as a positive omen for the Super Eagles' campaign.
Dorcy Augustine expressed hope for an even bigger win, commenting, "I pray it's 3-0 in favour of Nigeria. We really need this win." Another user, KARA Digital HUB, promised a reward if the prediction came true, stating, "and if it comes to pass I owe you money."
Some users even tried to fill in the missing details of the dream. Wizveron Oluwaseyi Alao claimed to have had a similar dream and identified the defender, saying, "The defender name nah Ajayi. I had the same dream. In Sha Allah it will come to past." Others, like Timileyin Omotosho, simply offered prayers for the prediction to manifest: "it will come to pass in jesus name."
Other Predictions and the Pre-Match Atmosphere
This was not the only prediction circulating before the high-stakes match. In a related report, a man who had previously correctly predicted the outcome of 18 AFCON games also shared his forecast for the Nigeria-Morocco tie.
He predicted a more tense scenario, foreseeing a draw at full-time, with Morocco potentially scoring first before Nigeria equalizes. His vision then saw the Super Eagles securing a thumping win during extra time. For the other semi-final between Senegal and Egypt, he predicted a straightforward victory for Senegal.
The mix of dreams, prophecies, and analytical predictions highlighted the intense excitement and nervous anticipation surrounding the match. Fans like Olusola Omoyinmi summed up the national sentiment with faith: "We will win by the special grace of God there's nothing but the winning is for us..up Nigeria." As the nation held its breath, these shared visions added a unique layer of narrative to the sporting spectacle set to unfold in Rabat.
