APC National Chairman Hosts Football Legend Nwankwo Kanu in Abuja
In a meeting that bridged the worlds of politics, sports, and business, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda Goshwe, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), welcomed legendary Nigerian footballer Nwankwo Kanu to his residence in Abuja.

The visit featured engaging discussions on how to harmonize and enhance the interplay between these three key facets of society politics, sports, and business for greater national benefit.

Professor Yilwatda emphasized the value of understanding these domains deeply, noting that "politics, sports, and business can be very interesting if understood." The conversation explored ways to achieve better balance and synergy among them, drawing on Kanu's extensive experience as a former Super Eagles captain, UEFA Champions League winner, Premier League star with Arsenal, and current influential figure in Nigerian sports administration and philanthropy through his Kanu Heart Foundation.

Nwankwo Kanu, widely regarded as one of Nigeria's greatest football exports and affectionately known as "Papilo," has long transcended the pitch, engaging in business ventures and community development initiatives.

This cordial encounter underscores the growing intersections between Nigeria's political leadership and iconic sports figures, fostering dialogue on holistic national development.

Those who sabi are aligning with Apc because they see potential future prosperity with the party leading Nigeria .

But the sons and daughters of nobody will be hiding behind their keyboard to be threatening president Tinubu's reelection.

They are Ajoka

The miscreants of Yoruba say igbo don't have political power, I don't know why they are trying to mingle with people whiteout political power from obi Cubana to nwankwo kanu who knows next person.

A government that hates its citizens by impoverishing them and choking them to death with their economic suffocation while fitting away the country's resources abroad, is the government you want the people to love? I think you are sick and not normal
ekhai:
THEY WILL SOON COME FOR THE HEAD OF PAPILO. THOSE CHILDREN OF HATE CAN'T LOOK BEYOND THEIR NOSE. EVERY OBIDIENTS FROM ANY PART OF NIGERIA ARE CHILDREN OF HATE. IT'S NOT RESTRICTED TO ANY PART OF NIGERIA.

But APC has never gotten any votes in the South East to become President -both Buhari and Tinubu. So, rest. Papilo knows why he visited the man and he owes you no apology.

Even you know say you have no electoral value.
