Mikel Obi has been called out by his cousin for allegedly abandoning his uncle who is suffering from a partial stroke since November last year.
One Christopher Obiekezie, claiming to be Mikel’s cousin has accused the 31-year-old of neglecting his ill-stricken father.
Obiekezie alleges his dad is the midfielder’s only surviving paternal uncle but attempts to reach the superstar for assistance has proved abortive.
Mikel, who recently clocked 31, is yet to respond to the allegations.
The Tianjin TEDA skipper who is expected to lead Nigeria to Russia is concentrating on his fitness ahead of the World Cup.
