IMG_71313819899127SRSport.com gathered from a source in Kwara State who revealed that life has been pretty difficult for the Yekini’s family since the death of the former African football king.
It was also gathered that Alhaja Sidikat cried out for help few months ago, after revealing that ‘life has been difficult for her’ since the passing of her son.
“My son has served this country, and I want the government and other people to come to our aid because It would not be good for me to die in this situation,” she pleaded.
Yekini scored 37 goals in 58 appearances for the Super Eagles and died in May 2012 at the age of 48. He remains the highest goal scorer for the Super Eagles with 37 goals and represented Nigeria in five major tournaments, including two FIFA World Cup competitions in USA ‘94 and France ‘98 respectively.

Former Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh has claimed that Arsenal’s young winger Alex Iwobi has the potential to become the “best” player in the world from Africa. During the game on Sunday between Arsenal and Burnley, a match the Gunners won 1-0 in the very last minute, Oliseh made the prediction whilst watching Iwobi for the 71 minutes he was on the pitch.

Iwobi, a Nigeria international himself now, has made seven chances in five appearances for the Gunners this season and should he manage to fulfil Oliseh’s prediction, he would follow in the footsteps of Didier Drogba, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Yaya Toure as winners of the African Player of the Year award. Iwobi’s Arsenal now sit third in the league, two points off of Manchester City at the top.
