Former Warri Wolves striker Obioma Moses Obiafudo, better known as Prince Moses Obioma, is fast becoming a fan favourite in the Ivorian Ligue 2 after another standout display for Union Sportive Fermier, even as his side slipped to a narrow 2–1 defeat against Williamsville Athletic Club.
The 27-year-old Nigerian forward has been one of the bright sparks for Union Sportive Fermier this season — his energy, movement, and relentless pressing setting him apart in a campaign that’s seen him start nearly every match.

Despite Saturday’s defeat, Obioma once again showed his class and composure, leading the line with confidence and causing real problems for the Williamsville defence. His leadership and consistency have drawn praise from fans and officials alike, who see him as a key figure in the club’s push for promotion.
A product of Nigeria’s Warri Wolves, Obioma’s journey to Ivory Coast has been marked by hard work and quiet resilience. Those who know him describe a player driven by professionalism and hunger to succeed — qualities that continue to shine through every performance.
Club insiders say the Nigerian’s influence goes beyond the pitch, inspiring younger teammates with his discipline and mentality. “He’s the first to arrive for training and the last to leave,” one team official said. “His attitude is exactly what this club needs.”
Obioma, reflecting on his journey, says he’s determined to keep improving and make his country proud. “Football is about consistency and belief,” he said after the match. “I want to keep pushing myself to the next level.”
It may not have been the result Union Sportive Fermier wanted, but for Nigerian football fans, Obioma’s steady rise in Ivory Coast is proof that hard work and perseverance still define true success on the continent.
