Tinubu Urges Super Bowl Winner Morotoluwa Ojomo to Empower Nigerian Youth

American football player Morotoluwa Ojomo, who was born in Nigeria and recently won an NFL championship, has been urged by President Bola Tinubu to coach young people in Nigeria.
Remember how Morotoluwa Ojomo, an American football player who was born in Nigeria, joyously raised the Nigerian flag after assisting his team, the Philadelphia Eagles, in winning the 2025 Super Bowl in the US?
During a cordial encounter at the State House in Abuja, Tinubu praised Ojomo’s perseverance and commitment, stressing not only his sporting achievements but also the possible influence he may have on Nigeria’s youth.
The president informed Ojomo that his administration was eager to work with diaspora talents in a cooperative effort to enhance human capital development, especially in the field of sports, saying, “With the kind of focus that you have, you can mentor many youths here and develop them.”

Playing defensive tackle, Ojomo just celebrated winning Super Bowl LIX for the first time with the Philadelphia Eagles.
