“I was born in the ghetto. AJ! Ajegunle! I was born in Ajegunle” Odion Ighalo reiterated proudly.
“It was difficult to live, difficult to eat and that is why I thank God when I look where I am now, we didn’t always have what we wanted or needed, we had to struggle,” he told The Guardian.
“So, my mum, with her small shop where she sold sachet water and soft drinks, she’ll save some money to buy shoes for me, give me transport money to go play with my team or play friendly games,” Odion Ighalo told TheCable.
