President Bola Tinubu on Friday hosted Nigerian-born American football star, Moro Ojomo, at the State House in Abuja.
Ojomo, who recently clinched victory with the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 59, was joined by his family for the special occasion.
The 23-year-old athlete, who was born in Lagos and relocated to the United States at the age of seven, arrived in Nigeria on Wednesday for his highly anticipated visit. Alongside Ojomo were his father, Ololade, his mother, Bimbo, and his sister, Modele.
Ojomo’s return to his home country comes just weeks after the Eagles triumphed in the prestigious Super Bowl, securing their second-ever championship title. Ojomo made a significant contribution to the Eagles’ victory, showcasing his skills on the grand stage of American football.
During the visit, Ojomo had the honor of meeting with President Tinubu, who commended his achievements and celebrated his success as a proud representation of Nigerian talent on the international sports scene.
