Here We Go

What does football means to you?
Football means freedom, it means passion
The Journey
It started when I was little and early. Playing football on the street, I started getting invite from teams. So I took it up like that and I decided to put all my mind and everything in there.

I had trial with @LiepajaFK. I signed a contract with them in the 2019/2020 season but due to financial issues, I couldn't continue the contract.
I came back from Latvia and pitched tent with @RemoStarsSC.
I was part of the players that got them promoted.

From Remo Stars I moved to Nassarawa United.
Nassarawa did well last season. And I was given an invite. The rest is history

National Team Invitation
I got an invite to the Nigeria U-20 national team in 2019.

Did you ever think you will be a professional footballer

Yes, I have always seen myself becoming one. I set a target for myself and I worked hard towards it.

Parental Support
They supported me, especially my mum. She is a great woman.

If you weren't a professional footballer

I would have become an engineer. I wanted to study computer science but I choose football. Though, I hope to finish my studies one day because it's very important.

C'est fini
