Victor Boniface’s Honest Depression Post Turns Into ₦1 Million Gift for Fan
Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface surprised fans this week when he opened up about battling depression in a viral social media post. Minutes after tweeting “Depression real die,” he asked a joking commenter how much money they needed. When the fan said ₦250,000, Boniface sent ₦1 million. The gesture earned widespread praise, with Nigerians lauding his generosity amid a challenging period in his career. The striker is on loan at Werder Bremen and has been sidelined since late 2025 by a serious knee injury. After completing surgery in January, Boniface returned to Bremen in late March for individual training. He has since joined partial team sessions but is not yet match-fit, as Bremen’s coach manages his workload carefully. Fans have rallied around Boniface, sending prayers and words of encouragement as he works to regain full fitness.
