A true Ambassador of Eastern Nigeria.

A great son of Nigeria.

This Kanu is different from the other Nnamdi Kanu that is a criminal,and will soon meet his waterloo in a pit toilet.

This Kanu set up a heart foundation to help Nigerian's with heart problems,and the other Kanu?that one is dragging ibo people to their deaths by instigating them to confront the military.

Happy Birthday to the Great Kanu Nwankwo.

God will not let that criminal Kanu use his Kanu name to spoil your own Kanu.
