Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho paid a courtesy visit to Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello a few days after Mikel Obi visited him.
Mr Bello, on Thursday, shared photos of the 2021 FA Cup winner’s visit to the Kogi Government House on Instagram.
He joked that Iheanacho, nicknamed ‘senior man’ by compatriot and Leicester City teammate Wilfred Ndidi, has cut him a magical soap for success.
“Finally, Senior Man Kells Kelechi Iheanacho don cut soap for me! It is always a pleasure to meet a teaming, Patriotic, Vibrant #nigerian #Youth,” Bello wrote.
“Congratulations ones again on your #facup win. The future of our great Nation is the Younger Generations. The time is now. God bless #nigeria.”
Former minister of aviation Femi Fani-Kayode was part of the meeting between Iheanacho and Bello.
Iheanacho helped Leicester into the finals of the 2021 FA Cup in May where they beat Chelsea.
Meanwhile, ex-Super Eagles captain Obi visited Bello last Sunday and pledged to “support him in whatever future political positions he wants to go into.”
