Six geopolitical zones, November, and the former Inter Milan striker paying for it himself. Nigerian sport has always been close to Nigerian politics. This is closer than usual.
Fulham references came off his pages after a 3-2 defeat at Crystal Palace. His manager answered by talking about the training ground, which is the only evidence anybody actually has.

Silver in Budapest behind Masai Russell, and 75,000 dollars that nobody has to be reminded to pay. The money is the part Nigerian athletes almost never get to take for granted.
A playful clip that fans have run with. Underneath the joke is one of the least examined relationships in Nigerian music, which is the one between a star and the people on his payroll.
Three artists from different corners of the Lagos street sound on one track. The collaboration is routine now. It was not always, and the reason it changed is money.
Little Kiss, and Overtake with Jeriq. She has been releasing consistently for over a decade, which in Nigerian music is close to unheard of for a woman.
