I wonder how people define people by just one event,I am 24 years old and started following super eagles before the time of aghahowa and I have never seen an attacker donning the eagles Jersey as good as yakubu,he's the most prolific attacker Nigeria ever had after rashidi yekini,boro's best player of the decade,he never scored less than 20 a season at Everton,welldone the yak,you had quite an illustrious career

I saw Aiyegbeni on Monday at the Departure lounge at Lagos International airport. The person I saw is nothing less than 42. Even with his shaved beards you would tell his age.
Re: Yakubu Aiyegbeni Retires From Football On His 35th Birthday by tosyne2much(m): 1:51pm On Nov 22, 2017
If anyone will be deceived not me.. 35 years indeed

Some people are made to run others down even when they themselves are in "PENNURY"! Yakubu Aiyegbeni had paid his dues and made fortunes for himself and his generation to come. Focus on your life and see how it can get better.
Nbote:

OFFICIAL 35 but NATURALLY he is 50yrs
Re: Yakubu Aiyegbeni Retires From Football On His 35th Birthday by akinboyo: 1:54pm On Nov 22, 2017
Even at that, he may be 45 even 50 yrs, I care less. One thing I notice in Nigeria is that, it is so difficult for majority of people to appreciate one another, they prefer those thieves politicians who put the country into a perpetual penury.

Just reshuffle the figures and you will have his real age.

35 = 53 years old (real age).
