Super Eagles star welcomes first child

The Super Eagles striker welcomed the first addition to his family on Thursday 

Super Eagles striker Peter Olayinka has welcomed his first daughter Gemma together with his partner Yetunde Barnabas.

The Slavia Prague star was brilliant last season, notching six goals and three assists in 22 league appearances. Olayinka also captained the Czech Republic giants occasionally in the absence of Stanislav Tecl.

Olayinka got married to Yetunde Barnabas in June 2021 in Lagos. Yetunde herself is a well-known figure. She played the role of Miss Pepeiye in the popular Nigeria sitcom “Papa Ajasco”.

The couple took to social media on Thursday to share pictures of the new addition to their family, their first daughter Gemma Olayinka.

 

The Prague-based star has been linked with a move away from the club, with links to the Turkish Super Lig and the French Ligue 1flying around.

Nonetheless, the 26-year-old seems comfortable with his employers, who he joined four years ago.
