Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface has signaled potential legal action against a social media blogger who falsely claimed that the Werder Bremen striker tested positive for cocaine and received a two-year ban from football.

The blogger, using the X handle @YK_Milli, posted on Friday:
"Victor Boniface has now been banned from football for 2 years by FIFA after it reported he tested positive for hard drug tests, Cocaine to be precise."

The claim quickly drew widespread skepticism, with many urging the blogger to delete the post or face legal consequences.

Despite the backlash, the blogger initially stood by the statement—until Boniface himself responded, hinting at legal action. The footballer wrote:
"Hope you get a better lawyer. For your sake I pray you get."

Boniface has been sidelined for the remainder of the season following knee surgery in December, shortly after his loan move from Bayer 04 Leverkusen to Werder Bremen. He underwent a successful operation earlier this year and is currently in rehabilitation at his parent club.
