Ghetto-blaster Odion Ighalo used to train with bullets flying over his head as
police chased gangs across the pitch

I get motivated and inspired when I read things like this. I always pray for God to give me the grace to scale through hard times because I believe I have a big future ahead. I will never forget the pain my mum goes through to send us all through school coupled with her health issue.I don't believe in people giving me fish,I believe in learning how to fish.God bless our hustle

It's common in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria. Street footballers are packed "in roger". Or they set themselves up in free-for-alls.

Growing up in Offa, I was caught in street football fights too with Police dispersing us.

Did u say "only the rich"? This can't be true. If u had even said "mostly the rich" it'd had been debatable

Young man what was said in Ighalo description of Maracana in Tolu complex is 150% true. Tolu complex have over 13 secondary schools and the area is known for gang fights and inter school rivalry. I can remember my first day in Secondary school I went to Maracana after my registration and there I saw them stab a young man to death. Brown Ideye also played with Ighalo on that same pitch.

I laugh, last child says who? Are you aware he's from a polygamous home? Can you tell me the sec sch he attended?
If I say I know him very well I'm not just saying it for the fun of it or attention seeking so take your ITK elsewhere.
