Nigeria international Mfon Udoh has rubbished reports in a section of the local media which claimed that his career was under serious threat as he was suffering from stroke.<br /><br />The Enyimba striker was not pleased with the malicious article, adding that the journalist failed to confirm the authenticity of the story from him before going to press.<br /><br />&ldquo;It&rsquo;s disheartening to see journalist pick stories without confirming from the source,&rdquo; Mfon Udoh said in a statement made available to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />&ldquo;How come, why did they write that I&rsquo;m down with stroke when it&rsquo;s obvious I&rsquo;m doing fine. <br /><br />&ldquo;Is it the writer that gave me stroke? It&rsquo;s really annoying to put such story out without speaking to me. It&rsquo;s a big shame.&rdquo;<br /><br />It would be recalled that Mfon Udoh was excused from the national team get - together a month ago after reporting to camp with an undisclosed ailment.<br /><br />Photo Credit : championnews.com.ng
