4. Tesilimi Olawale “Teslim” Balogun


Balogun was the first African to qualify as a professional coach. He was a coach for Nigeria at the 1968 Summer Olympics. He played at both professional and international levels as a striker. The Teslim Balogun Stadium in the Nigerian city of Lagos is named in his honour. The Teslim Balogun Foundation was founded after his death to assist the families of Nigerian ex-international footballers who may have fallen on hard times.

The picture you used in number 4 is not Rosalin Balogun;that's Patti Boulaye.

Patti Boulaye (born Patricia Ngozi Ebigwei, 3 May 1954) is a British-Nigerian singer, actress and artist who rose to prominence after winning New Faces in 1978, and was among the leading black British entertainers in the 1970s and 1980s. In her native Nigeria, she is best remembered for starring in Lux commercials, and The Patti Boulaye Show..Wikipedia.
I was surprised when i saw her picture being used with another person's name.
Lets properly research this "facts' before posting please.
