Mourinho dominated conversations on Twitter Nigeria after he was appointed manager of Tottenham.

Jose Mourinho shot straight to top of Twitter Nigeria trends after he was named Tottenham manager on Wednesday, November 20, 2019.

Mourinho was announced as Tottenham’s new manager until the 2022/2023 season the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino.

It was an announcement that sent Twitter Nigeria into meltdown and soon enough Mourinho was the number one trending item.

It was the difference in opinions that made the conversation dominate Twitter on Wednesday morning.

Mourinho came back to England despite the despicable hot job by the media to illegitimize him! Proper lion. You need to be a proper loser not to respect that guy's mentality. You can take a break from your weakness & respect the guy's mentality.

football is so funny man. This time last year, we all thought Pochettino would be the one taking Mourinho’s job. This fucking game.

Tottenham sacked Pochettino before Arsenal sacked Emery?????

Tottenham to now appoint Jose Mourinho of all coaches???

Mark my words, Tottenham will win a major trophy before Arsenal. Facts only!

Pochettino did his best, someone else should try. It really hasn't gone his way this season. It'll really be intriguing to see who spurs brings in... Mourinho should be happy to work with Kane, son, Alli, Eriksen and the defender he wanted for #mufc

At least some Arsenal faithfuls like @wongiwongi #ralphenisan will be happy Mourinho signed up with @SpursOfficial and not @Arsenal

Jose Mourinho was so desperate to get the Manchester United job to the extent Ed Woodward sacked LVG just days after winning the FA Cup. And just hours after sacking Poch, Jose is announced as manager of Spurs. You might not love to hear it, but Jose can be very desperate. https://t.co/zJPUSwAc0i

José Mourinho used Arsenal to get Spurs job. Levy was so scared that he didn't want Arsenal to sign José that he had to sack Poch in the night and employ José in the morning.

Inferiority complex.

One thing is certain, Jose will win Spurs titles if they are willing to SPEND but I don't know about a long term plan.

Congratulations to Jose mourinho for being the new gaffer @SpursOfficial I wish him well and hope he helps them win a trophy.
I wish him well, wished he had stayed at United for longer period but his man management was his undoing as no one is perfect. #WelcomeJose

Jose Mourinho is back.

The season just got more interesting.
— Biola Solace-Chukwu (@Beeorlicious) November 20, 2019

So per EPL pundits & fans logic, Woodward was right to sack Mourinho who won 3 trophies, 4 Finals & finished with 81 points but Levy is wrong for sacking Pochettino who won 0 trophies in 5 years & leaves them in 14th despite one of the best squads.

Assembly of moronic idiots. 😂

In 12 hours Poch is gone and Jose Mourinho has been appointed. Poch did great, but Jose is clearly a step up and a proven winner even in his worst times. Daniel Levy just pulled a masterstroke, luckily it's desperate times for Jose too. Spurs win! COYS!!!

Members of the Mourinho fan-club in Nigeria immediately declared love for Tottenham while his critics predicted doom for the North London club.

Many others were also excited that the Portuguese manager was back in the Premier League.
