George Weah Or Abedi Pele, Who’s The Real African Football Legend? by atuagbo: 2:54pm On Aug 05, 2010
Both are soccer icons and household names but some homes see them differently …

Both men were fantastic in their long careers. They had won lofty trophies with their teams and bagged personal awards as well. They were adored by their people and have dined with their presidents. But who’s on top of who?

George Weah. Abedi was good too, but methinks gorgeous george was better all round. Plus, he single handedly bankrolled his country for years and years

Abedi is not even better than some of our own Nigerian legends in term of achievement and skill so why compare him
with the only African that ever won the World Footballer of the Year awards
