The life cycle of a footballer is very short. Football is one of the shortest career known to everyone. They retire early as many players are deemed too old at 30. Just when some people are about starting a career. This is why we want to look at what footballers are doing after retirement. This is a magical column and we are starting with the magician himself. What is Jay Jay doing?

Jay Jay Okocha is a football magician and his deeds are known to many in world football. Not just to men and ardent followers of football. But to ladies and even women as well. He was loved in his playing days and he is still loved now.

After a beautiful career in Europe and an International career in the Super Eagles, Jay Jay Okocha is still into many things. We will highlight a few of what he is into.

PUNDITRY

He knows the game, He knows the rules and his eloquence made him take unto punditry like a duck in water. He talks football in match-day programs for many organizations including Supersports and Heineken.

BUSINESS VENTURES
Jay Jay Okocha owns a table water brand known as Jay Jay. He also owns a lively and happening bar known as Club 10 in Ikoyi. He has stakes in many businesses we are not allowed to publish.

FOOTBALL POLITICS
Like Luis Figo, Jay Jay Okocha is into football administration in Nigeria. He is the FA Chairman of Delta STATE Football Association. A member in the board of the Nigerian Football Federation. He is also a member of the Technical committee in charge of appointing coaches.

We are yet to see the back of Okocha as he has a desire of being the President of the Nigerian Football Federation someday.

He was asked if he was thinking of going into coaching someday,Okocha replied, “NO, NOT FOR THE MOMENT. I AM MORE INTERESTED IN THE EXECUTIVE POSITIONS. I PREFER TO BE THE ONE WHO APPOINTS THEM AND TELL THEM WHAT TO DO.”

FIFA.com also asked, “You see yourself as the presidential type, then?” Okocha replied, “WHY NOT? YES. IN FACT, I HAVE BEEN NAMED THE CHAIRMAN OF THE DELTA STATE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION. AND I AM DELIGHTED ABOUT IT”

Okocha is busier than he was in his playing days as he juggles punditry, football politics, charities and other businesses together. He is indeed, a magician.

We will be doing some posts on our many Nigerian football legends both male and female to inform, inspire the up and coming while celebrating these ballers once again. We will be glad to hear read your comments and suggestions on who you would want to hear about….
