Adesanya visited Nigeria to activate African power — Gordons

I was a strong football lover, but I grew up in the type of family where sport was not encouraged. My dad expected me to go to school and become a doctor or a lawyer, so I wasn’t encouraged in the area of sports, but I loved football a lot, and I can still play football perfectly.

Why did you not pursue your interest in football?

In the days where sports were being developed in our area, I didn’t have any sort of encouragement to pursue sports. I didn’t even know that sports were lucrative because the mindset was that if you were ever going to be a very successful and notable person in life, you had to be either a lawyer or an engineer.

Where you a member of your school football team?

I wasn’t allowed at all, and the parental fear was there, so I didn’t play for the team, but I was always attending games.
