I understand how you feel bro, trust me when I was growing up too in a polygamous family, I knew football won't be my option but I made a vow that my son will play professional football and fortunately for me, I have about six month old boy as my first born. my only prayer is that you should develop interest in football. I'm currently doing the huttle, I'll send him to Europe. You can do same to bro. With that your dreams will come through

It wasn't bad for your parents to have trained you. They did excellently good.

Now that you have the freedom, do what you can and prove yourself...

eyah! that really hurts. You could have gone back to school after retirement sef. You will still be a graduate. At least everybody eye don clear now say that education is not everything. If you have a talent ensure you get educated in training the talent into becoming a skill. Going to a foothbal academy is better for a person deft with football talent. It is still an education recognized all over the world. I can feel your regrets though. It is well. You can still achieve it via football consulting

Please forgive your parents and move on. They've done their part, it's time to do yours. So will you continue to blame them for the past rather than look at your own potential for the future? When you're focused on what should have been, you're delaying on what you could start to become.

And my little advice, don't look at someone else's clock to tell the time. Osimhen is telling his story, you can also write yours!!

Cheers bro.

As Davido go back school.. Wetin e use the certificate do??

Backup.

The problem is, the music industry is not forever. As an example, do you know of Andy Shurman, Dizzy K , Harry Mosco, and Chris Hanen, as well as Mike Okri?

No?

Those guys were regining in the 1980's. Harry Mosco even had a no 1 hit in the UK in the early 1980's self. By 1999, no one knew who they were. (Even Andy Shurman, I had forgotten about him until a few months ago, when I found one of his reigining songs from the late 80's on Youtube).

At some point, no one would remember Davido, and there is a chance the money he has now will dry up. So, what does he do? Worst case scenairo...he uses that certificate. cheesy

Kris Okotie was a popular singer too in the early 1980's. In 1984, he went back to law school...because he promised his daddy he would. And he graduated self.

Addendum..Kris Okotie: Show me your backside

They are not ignorant. They did what they believed was the best for you at that age and moment in life. You should be grateful that they see it fit and ready to train you in school which some parents who are very ignorant won't even try to do. They would advice you to go and learn a handwork. Which is not that bad either. And you don't need to be a footballer before you succeed. Thanks and be proud of your parents. I hope in few years you will come back here to tell us how you have raised your own kids and how exposed it is you will be.

Bros no be so.

Your talent, your gift, will always find ways for you. Osimhen faced the same challenge. He had obstacles until that day when he was spotted at Olusosun dump area and sent to Abuja. The rest became history when he met Emmanuel Amuneke. Of the thousands of boys who were invited, Amuneke too him and another boy.

No blame your papa. Ball no dey your blood. Maybe na Nairaland blood you get. Check am.

At least you can now train your children in the game.
Let's stop blaming our parents for everything.
They have good plans for us just that some didn't work out well.
And as you know not all international footballers were trained by their parents.

He is a serial criminal scammer and is here to promote his begging advert scam.
Go to your church or mosque to beg and stop using different monikers on NAIRALAND to swindle people.
You have used over 50 monikers to beg. If you are genuine, you should have been known with one moniker. Using many is a clear indication you are a fraud.
The way I see it, you'll soon get deliverance from the Devil. Keep thinking you are deceiving people. There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed; covered that will not be opened.
The great day of your revelation is at hand. Be expectant, because surely it will come.

Getting into a team in Europe is not as easy as it looks.

For every Osimhen, there are hundreds of Africans (Nigerians inclusive) who are playing for third division, fourth division , even fifth division teams in Europe and earning peanuts as salaries. Some even play part time, and make a living doing other things, while wating for a call.

Your chances improve if you get a certificate and then graduate. Football? Only a tiny few make it, whether African or whiteman
don't mind them.
