Former Super Eagles players, including Jay-Jay Okocha, Nwankwo Kanu, Peter Rufai, and Victor Ikpeba, attended a special meeting to celebrate Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The football national legends honored Tinubu with an award during the event to commemorate the grand occasion.
According to a statement released by the presidential candidate’s camp, “Asiwaju for President 2023: Presentation of Award by Ex-Super Eagles and Kanu Heart Foundation to Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu at Bourdillon earlier today. Join us tomorrow by 2 pm at Onikan stadium for novelty match in honor of Asiwaju at 70.”
The Ex-Super Eagles players will participate in a novelty game for Tinubu’s birthday on Sunday, March 20, 2022, to continue their support for him.
Last year, the players also endorsed Gov. Yahaya Bello.
The footballers could also be seen in a video, praying for Tinubu’s presidential ambition, with Bola Tinubu taken aback by the intensity with which the prayers from Taribo West are delivered.
