The 25-year-old gave
the ball away 10 minutes from time before he and his team-mates failed to
prevent Claudio Marchisio playing Fabio Quagliarella into space for the
equaliser.
Mikel said afterwards
on his twitter account @Mikel12Official : ''If I want to make up an excuse, I can. But, for me, I gave
the ball away. I put my hands up, we move on.
''I'm sorry about the
mistake, but there are no excuses.''
Chelsea
Football club said that Mikel did
not quit twitter because of abuse. In a statement they added: "We've been
made aware of racist tweets targeted at Mikel which are totally unacceptable,
disgusting and abhorrent. We've informed the police and support taking the
strongest possible action.” Mikel is deeply sorry for his action, but
some Nigerian supporters on twitter has suggested that Mikel should join
Nigerian League! They said and I quote " Mikel Obi come and play in the Nigerian
League. There are no racists here"
Mikel Obi should get use to racism chant or
come and play for Nigerian premier league like his fans suggested.
