Super Eagles and Nottingham Forest striker, Taiwo Michael Awoniyi, showed his humanitarian side by paying for the Iftar meals of fasting Muslims in the club’s community, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 27-year-old has started just two Premier League games for Nuno Espirito Santo‘s side this season and isn’t having his best career stint, but yet, he wears a smile.
Away from the pitch, Awoniyi treated the Nottingham community to a meal yesterday evening. The meal served as Iftar for the Muslim, and a fast break for the Christians in the area, who are currently in the lent period as well.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s your time or your resources. It’s just a way that everyone can be powerful to each other, and growing up, that has been my goal, and it has always been in my heart to assist in my little way.
