However, he has now been forced to apologize after public outrage over his controversial comment.

Amrouche took to Twitter and tweeted: “I apologise to the Nigeria football community for using the words JUJU in the press conference in SA.

“I used the word in jest. I respect Nigerians and their RICH football tradition. I’m a man who likes joking, but I realise I used the word out of context. Please accept my apologies.”
