The AC Milan forward is in Nigeria for a short holiday
before he resumes with his Italian club later in the month
Recuperating Super Eagles forward, Nnamdi Oduamadi has
showed that he not only knows how to play football but that he is also a
compassionate man.
On Tuesday, the man that scored three goals against
Tahiti at the just concluded Fifa Confederations Cup went to the SOS Village at
Isolo to donate some food items and toiletries to the centre for displaced and
abandoned children.
Oduamadi told Goal that this was a pledge that he had
made to God to remember always those that go hungry because they do not have
anyone to care for them.
“It’s a promise I made to God and I will continue and
hope to do better," Oduamadi told Goal.
“I appreciate my position in life which has been by God’s
grace and I intend to extend that grace to everyone I can which is why I am
here today,” he added.
It was not an event for which he called the press as he
just does this every time he is in the country and he pledged to continue to
give to as many centres like the SOS Village.
Oduamadi was injured against Uruguay in Brazil but he
confirmed that he will be ready for pre-season with AC Milan later in the
month.
“I went to Italy from Brazil as my club wanted to confirm
the extent of the ankle injury and they found it was not too serious.
“So now I have been given the No. 90 jersey which I
requested for as it is the year of my birth and I hope to convince the coaches
that I merit a place in the team for next season,” he concluded.
