This is Norbert Owona, former captain of the indomitable lions of Cameroon who lost everything he had in life, lost his family in an accident, became sick and homeless. After asking the government of Cameroon for help to no avail, Cameroon football Legend, Samuel Eto'o paid him a visit , gave him 500,000FCFA and promised to give him a  brand new house.

The former captain of the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon, Norbert Owona (67) lives a life of misery after his glorious football career.

The first sportsman from the New-Bell district to play in the Cameroonian selection and the first footballer to buy a car in Douala in 1968, is homeless. Driven by his owner for unpaid bills, he spends his nights on a veranda at the New-Bell neighborhood in Douala. “I sleep like an animal, I did not know my country could leave me like that,” he told Equinox TV. For two years, I have a problem with my testicles (an inguinal hernia). And it sucks my blood"

ETO'o get LIFE

That's what legends do
However I only feel pity for d man coz he's 67 and an old generation footballer who likely didn't earn much from football unlike these new millennia footballers
It nauseates me when I read that an actor or a footballer falls sick or is in financial trouble and people castigating the govt for neglecting a national hero.
So a teacher, doctor or any Civil servant that served the country until retirement is no hero??

Truth is government cannot do all, abandoning him is bad though but what about his children?

When people don't manage their money well you blame government

He did a job and he was paid he misused his money and he went broke... So what should government do

Now we have players who earn $5000 for playing each mach for Nigeria... Tomorrow they go broke and you say Nigeria government abandoned them... Enough of this rubbish talk abet

God bless u eto.

Hmmm
