Nigerian football sensation, Victor Osimhen, has demonstrated his heart of gold by generously gifting a young boy who not only dressed like him but also exhibited remarkable football skills with a whopping N2.5 million.
The heartwarming story unfolded when a video of the boy, donning a mask resembling Osimhen’s iconic look and showcasing impressive football prowess, went viral on social media. The clip, shared by popular Instagram personality Tunde Ednut, caught the attention of the footballer himself.
Moved by the young boy’s talent and resemblance to himself, Osimhen wasted no time in reaching out to Ednut, seeking assistance in locating the aspiring footballer. With Ednut’s collaboration and the efforts of content creator Eriq Morak, the boy was eventually traced to Ivory Coast.
Sharing the uplifting update, Ednut expressed surprise at discovering that the boy hailed from Ivory Coast rather than Nigeria. He credited Morak for successfully tracking down the talented youngster and facilitating communication between the parties involved.
Osimhen, upon connecting with the boy and his family, generously gifted him the substantial sum of N2.5 million, a gesture that deeply touched and immensely delighted the boy’s family. In a heartfelt video, the family extended their heartfelt gratitude to the footballer, expressing their appreciation for his kindness and generosity.
