Lionel Messi Paid N756m To Come Lay Stadium's Foundation In Gabon by Mc4larin: 1:18pm On Jul 21, 2015
Four-time world player of the year, Lionel Mess was hosted in Gabon on Saturday July 18th by the country's President, Ali Bongo, for the brick laying of their new 22,000 seat stadium. He was  chauffeur driven by the president himself around the streets of Libreville.

Messi officially started the building process at the Port-Gentil stadium, which will host Africa Cup of Nations matches in 2017. He came dressed in a casual pair of denim shorts and t-shirt

"When I was in Barcelona a few years ago, I met Messi who had told me that he would come to visit me in Libreville" said the Gabon president. "It's a promise he made me. He is a man of honour who just kept his word.".

There are reports that he was paid 3.5m Euros by Ali Bongo to make the appearance and it's causing a huge wahala in the country. More photos after the cut

I give up on African mentality. Just to use hand shovel and carry cement to paste on blocks,that's why the silly president spent 3.5million Euros to invite Messi to his country?

Lord have Messi on Gabon!

we don't always appreciate ourselves in Africa.we have African legends like abedi Pele,weah and others who would have done that for a lesser pay.
