Accolades have continued to pour in from every corner of the football world as arguably Nigeria’s most gifted football player ever celebrates his 46th birthday.

Austin Okocha, born on the 14th of August 1973, was a former Super Eagles captain, an incredibly skilful playmaker, and one of the best African players of all time

Best known for his dribbling skills and truckload of tricks and stepovers, Okocha is a veteran of three World Cup tournaments and a one-time Africa champion.

The football world has not stopped celebrating this icon of African football.

So good they named him twice πŸ‘πŸ‘
