Pacesetter123:The Kanu I bumped into a few times at a popular joint in Ikeja around 1994 was not 18 years old. I would guess he is probably 54/55 now! |

AdolfHitlerxXx:So Presido is only 13 years older than him … it appears Kanu must have good genes … he doesn’t age very quick |

Wit his set in football who are currently 55 to 60, you can't say he is 49,man is way above that from my analysis |
| Re: Kanu Nwankwo Celebrates His 49th Birthday Today by emperor4love(m): 11:29am On Aug 01, 2025 |
Kanu should be 52 0r 55 that's range guessing |

johngwain: ![]() Ahh! Bros dey reason de matter well nah. You say make him tell us him real age say football era don pass? The no dey do am like that..oo. You want make FIFA come collect Nigeria the U-17 world cup wey him win for us? Or you want make IOC collect us the Olympic Gold Medal wey we win for 96 sake of say him revealed age don show say him bin don pass 23 years? Abeg make una free my guy. Him age nah "49" nah wetin international community know about him be dat. Any new revelation by him now to say otherwise, Oyibo wey dey do things anyhow anyhow with blacks fit come collect all the age grade medals wey him bin don follow participate from Naija. |

I watched the same Kanu in Iwuanyawu Nationale jersey against Ranchers bees in 1992 FA cup match in Ilorin,came in second half and scored a goal....after the match I went with few friends to visit him in Nationale camp the old Circular hotel Ilorin....hmmm we hailed him as senior brother but now some of us are older than him going by his age,anyway..... HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEGEND |

Pacesetter123:Everybody knows footballers in those times all understated their ages. Many of them weren’t discovered until their twenties by which time the only way their could get a contract was to understate their age. If you disclosed your real age foreign clubs wouldn’t sign you because you would have a low/lower resale value. Kanu isn’t 60 but he isn’t 49 either. |

emperor4love:Joke aside,he maybe using football age,but none of his set in football is up to 60 or very close to 60 as you said. I hope you know his mates in football? Don't tell it's Okocha,Finidi George,Sampson Siassia,Amokachi or Equavon.Because they are not his mate.Yes,he may have played with some of them in the Olympic and AFCON but that doesn't make him their mates in football. Check if Wilson Oruma is celebrating 60 years now or even by next year. Or if Celestine Babayaro is doing the same,then I will believe you. |
