Rangers Reject Moses Simon’s Igbo Bias Claim: ‘We Are a National Club, Not Tribal’
Moses Simon said he was dropped by Rangers International after training for three months because he wasn’t Igbo. He claimed another player earned a contract after one session solely on ethnic grounds. Rangers CEO Amaobi Ezeaku issued a firm statement denying the allegation. He stressed that the club’s recruitment has always been based on talent, character and commitment, not tribe or origin. Highlighting over 50 years as one of Nigeria’s leading football institutions, Rangers pointed to a long history of players and staff from every region. The club said its current policy doubles down on diversity and meritocracy. Rangers confirmed they remain committed to unity, excellence and equal opportunity for all footballers, regardless of ethnic background.
